Haven't logged in a while so I thought I should. Yesterday's workout was brutal. I threw up half way through and then came back and finished the workout anyway. I was kinda proud of myself. lol
Didn't do squats since someone was on the smith machine. Substituted with leg press instead with my feet at the top...pressed together. Did 130lb and I'm hurting now!
Upped the SLDLs to 70 lbs
Upped the calf raises to150lbs
Didn't increase weight in very many other exercises but at the end of the workout I added 3 sets of the glute machine. My butt hurts!! lol
Haven't been doing much cardio since I need to gain some weight!!

sorry, coming onto this thread a bit late but....GREAT WORK BG!!!!!!!! I was reading through this and have to also throw my support to a 3x week total body routine.....i know it goes against what a lot of information thats out there, but honestly, a lot of whats out there is geared towards high end professional lifters whose workouts are so insane that 1x a week is appropriate....for the majority of people a 3x a week is great as its NEW MUSCLE, not experienced muscle that needs to be bombed with murderous workouts 1x a week......on monday i start a very similar strength routine that is a killer, and its total body 3x a week.....i have run the exact same routine 2x in my life before with GREAT results.......Tbody def sent you in a positive direction.........KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK GIRL!!!!!!!!

Thanks GGR! Yeah being sick is no fun!
Thank you for the support BeastMaster! After this routine is over I'm probably going to start a different one...mostly because I've been told not to do supersets for too long at one time..But yeah..I definitely got great results...

Hey Slimmer! Yeah...I've just been too lazy to post up progress pics. lol Well, I've been a little discouraged lately because I don't feel like I'm seeing great results. I know I shouldn't since I probably am making decent progress for my size, but sometimes it gets hard. But I need to get my head straight and keep trucking. So I'm going to post my pics in a minute. Thank you for checking up on me SlimmerMe!

Arm: Increased by 1/4 inch.
Leg: Increased by 1/4 inch.
Waist: Stayed same at 22
Stomach: Decreased by 1 inch
Butt: Stayed the same
Calf: Decreased by 1/2 inch. No bueno.

Been a little extra hungry on my non lift days while I'm fasting...I've been simply drinking a ton of water to keep me going..But that doesn't help much. I wonder if it's because we've been doing some intense workout sessions? Maybe my body needs more food!

Train, eat, and rest... and then just let your body do it's thing. It'll happen in time!
Well what's your immediate goal? Are you still trying to lose bodyfat (I don't think you need to at all)? If so, then it's good that you're hungry. Don't take hunger as a sign that you're 'starving your muscles'. As long as you're eating enough throughout the day, that starving broscience talk is complete horse$hit.Last edited by gbrice75; 02-27-2012 at 11:17 AM.

Finally done with the full body workouts and I survived through it! Yay!
On to HIT training. I'm kind of nervous about it because of the intensity. I tried the glute machine HIT style, and my god, I thought I would blackout right there on the machine. But, I know it'll give me the results I want, so it's time to step up my game.
I'm a bit jealous of Slfmade because he gets to go on a cut and I don't yet. I always thought eating less would be the hard part, but come to find out, eating more is worse! Oh well, 6 more weeks of this, and then I get to do a 4 week cut.
Anyway, thanks for all the support you guys have been giving me!

Thanks SM! I will....

03-03-2012, 12:38 PM #232
Okay...so here's where I need you guys' help. We decided not to do HIT yet because of a couple of reasons. 1) We can only do that for 6 weeks. 2) I'd be a horrible spotter for Slfmade and I don't want him to kill himself. lol I'm just not strong enough (YET) to make sure nothing falls on him.
So...that being said.....I need to figure out a great routine that'll help me build more muscle. We're thinking of either doing something like:
Mon: Legs and back
Tue: Chest and Bi's
Wed: Shoulders and tri's
Fri: Full body
OR
Mon: Legs
Tue: Chest and Bi's
Wed: Shoulders and Tri's
Fri: Back and Core
But I have no idea if this will be productive.....Please help!!!!!
