Yesterdays high carb day turned into a slop up what ever carbs were at my friends house cause I had no food at my house.It was a bad idea today I'm 5lbs heavier and I can see that I look alot softer.I just want to add 2 sweet potatoes to each of my meals when on my high carb day but bills come first.Well maybe this week will be the week I nail down my bills and my diet the way I want too.
Tomorrow the gyms closed and I'll just hit up my cardio tonight and when I get off work so I'll shed the unwanted water absorbed by my careless cheat day.
Wednesday abs/tri's

No cardio,my legs were fried not really but I gotta lot of shit to do today so even the dedic8ed1 has to make time for his own personal obligations.
Weighed myself today I was 171.5 which is where I've been now for the past three weeks,so I can now test how far I can take my carb intake without losing my condition.
Picture update Jan 16, which will be 90 days in.

Wei***ng in today at 173.5.I didn't run out of food this week so that's probably why I'm up 2 lbs which is where I feel I'm at naturally anyway.Last edited by dedic8ed1; 01-05-2008 at 10:03 AM.

why so many machines and such high volume? i mean 16 sets for shoulders
-
01-05-2008, 10:00 AM #58
Alright now that it's the new year and roughly 11 weeks into training I'm going to step up the training a little bit.My body is getting used to the 15,12,10 reps per set with no failure since I've begun training so I will now go to 12,10,8 and failure when I feel it's nessessary,which will probably be once every 5 weeks, going to failure on each set for every muscle group on that particular week,2 minutes between sets,reps no higher then 7,no more then 2 exercises per small muscles and no more then 3 exercises per large muscle group,although sets will remain at 3 for all muscles.
The 16th of this month will be exactly 12 weeks in so I will defenitly post some pics and if not hey I'm a poor **** and have to wait on people with cameras to take some pics.
Other news I've got half of my cycle,20 amps of Test Enth and soon I'll have my Equipoise and then the real fun begins.
Since I've started training I must have ran out of food atleast every other week which is my biggest problem with training rite now,so my gains are suffering a little bit but still plugging away.Last edited by dedic8ed1; 01-05-2008 at 10:09 AM.

which vertebrae is herniated? what did you do to heal or treat it?
-
01-05-2008, 03:18 PM #61
T-5 T-6 Thoracic spine,I tried alot of things but nothing heals like time.I just had to lay off the gym and take it easy,no side bending movements,posture awareness.I probably took too much time off from training cause the same week I went back I felt great,but I still am very cautious about how I train.I've learned that with an injury like mine I have to diet twice as hard and train half as much and strickly stay on machines and alot of sitting when doing biceps.As for the volume of sets I like to hit the delts from all angels fronts,sides,rears which for me is the only way to get the 3 dimensional delt appeal,although the fronts get enough of a workout from chest but for me my shoulders are my lagging body part so I'm trying to figure out what will work for me in my state of pronness to aggrevating my disc.
Epidoral didn't help.
Physical therapy didn't help
Pain killers don't take them.
The only meds I liked were "Ultracet",non narcotic painkiller
"Lodine" Anti innflamattory.Last edited by dedic8ed1; 01-05-2008 at 03:21 PM.

3 years ago i fractured c-7,t-3, and t-4, they told me i would never powerlift again
and on january 19th i will be competing in the columbus pro/am opening with pr's in the squat and bench.
listen to your body, it can tell you more than a doctor can
and i would want to use free weights if i were you, to make sure that all your stabalizer muscles don't get weak. just take it easy at first and listen to your body.

01-05-2008, 07:20 PM #63
Yep back pain is a mystery to all doctors in my opinion.But good for you buddy way to prove the medical community wrong,good luck at the meet.
Have you spoken to Doc Sust ever?I ask because he's also a power lifter and I'm sure you 2 would have alot to talk about.

No cardio today all the treadmills were taken believe it or not,and now that I'm bringing the weight up and lowering the reps I need all the legs I got on leg day so the stepping mill was no option.I ate pretty shitty for the past 2 days which doesn't sound very long but it's very easy for me to over due it then have my stomach and waist pretty bloated for a couple days.So with my 90 day pics coming up I wanna get back on track.
Tomorrow back day.

No cardio today I got a blister on my heel from using the treadmill at my apartment with a sock that had a hole rite on the heel,so I gotta wait till that heals up before I do anymore cardio.
My condition looked better last week before I started slopping up the junk for 3 days.That's cool because I need to build some muscle before the spring months get here,so the road to ripped has suddenly become the road with many turns.
Tomorrow chest.

I really fuked my condition eating like shit for that 5 day stretch and I'm very dissapointed with myself for being so careless.So I'll make the best of it and just train even harder and be twice as determined to get into the single digits in bf% by summer.

It's been 3 days since I aggrevated my hernieated disc,at this point I don't feel confident enough to train with the pain and movement restriction at this level.I pretty much have to go back to the drawing board "My doctor" and let him suggest my next move.
3 Months is all it took to put me back on the sidelines for who knows how long this time.
