exitspeeds journal


For background:

I am 19, i weigh 190-195 lbs and am around 6'0 tall. I have been slightly overweight or pudgy for most of my life. Last summer i finally got into shape. For the first time i was proud of how i looked and felt great about myself. At that time i weighed about 175-180 lbs. That all changed when i went to college. Since september i've gained 10-15 lbs, my arms have gotten smaller, and my chest has gotten flabby. I am back to my pudgy self again. For all that don't know or remember, college life basically entails a crappy diet, high alchohol consumption, and little motivation to do anything else but the above mentioned activities. I periodically worked out since september doing weight lifting and VERY brief cardio but i am still not happy with the way i look. Its time to change. I've started a new workout and perhaps this journal will give me the motivation, or at least guilt trip me into staying with it.

By the way, if anybody has any advice for eating well at college i would be very happy to hear it. I don't have very much money and the only place i really eat is at the college cafeteria or late night junkfood munchies. My diet is really my biggest problem and i would really appreciate any help from anybody.

Anyways, onto my workout. I'm doing a 3 day split i found in Men's Health. I don't know if it is the best workout for making the quickest gains possible so if anybody has any suggestions i would very much appreciate them.

Tuesday 3/18/03
Dumbell Shoulder Press 3X6 50lbs
Side Delt Raise 3X6 15

Dumbell Kickback 3X6 20lbs
Preacher Curl 3X6 45 lbs
Forearm curl 3X6 15 lbs
Reverse forearm curl 3X6 15lbs

After the workout i did some sprints.

Thats about it for my workout. i'll check back in on thursday

I'm in college and am able to eat well. Just get some protein powder, use those for a few of the tweener meals, buy beef jerkey and shredded wheat for your room, maybe some peanuts. When I go the cafeteria I eat a lean turkey sandwich and a few boiled egg whites with a couple glasses of skim milk, and a plate full of spinach and carrots (no dressing). Hope that helps! By the way, I also have a little candy here and there to make sure I don't binge!
