I was about 195-197 lbs all last cycle. I expect now that I am eating and on creatine my weight will go up. I was about 197-198 after spring break, we'll see what it is today, hopefully up a little more. I don't expect to get above 205-210 even with creatine though.

BORs (UH) 8x135, 8x185, 8x195, 8x205
Squats 10x45, 5x135, 3x185, 3x225, 3x275, 3x315
DB Shrugs 10x80, 10x90
BB Curls 10x75, 7x75
Decline Sit Ups BWx10, BW+25x10, BW+25x10
Notes: Today was an off day, I don't think I ate nearly enough. Squats felt heavy at 315 which sucks, I need to get used to it again since it's been nearly 2 weeks off. Curls were a joke, I haven't done them in a couple years with the barbell and it shows. Squats would normally be first but the rack was occupied. |

Wednesday, April 4, 2007
Flat Bench 10x45, 6x95, 5x135, 3x185, 3x200, 3x210, 3x220
Standing OHP 6x45, 6x105, 6x110, 6x115
Tricep Pushdowns 10x120, 10x140
DB Side Bends 10x75, 10x85
Notes: Abs still very sore, made benching a little difficult. My weight is up to 202-203 now from the creatine. It's been less than a week, and I know it's saturating my muscles, but I don't really feel any strength gain from it yet. Kinda sucks but hopefully within the next 2-3 weeks I see some results.
Decent day overall. |

Squats 10x45, 5x135, 3x185, 3x225, 3x275, 3x325
BORs (UH) 8x135, 8x185, 8x195, 8x210
DB Shrugs 10x85, 10x90
BB Curls 10x75, 10x75
Decline Sit Ups BWx25, BWx25
Notes: 325 was heavy as hell today for squats. This cycle just sucks I think for a lot of reasons. I took too much time off over spring break (didn't really need it off to begin with), didn't eat enough over break, started with too heavy weights, and crap like that. I hope creatine kicks in to save me or otherwise this may be a poor cycle. I'm going to try and eat more, although sometimes it feels like I eat a horse a day already.
On another note, if any of you go shooting, I just bought a brand new Savage .243 today. It's my first centerfire rifle  I can't wait to take it to the outdoor 100/200 yard range next weekend! |

Hey Greg, actually to me your numbers look good. Eating more isn't always fun is it. I just learned yesterday that I've got to add another 500 each day dammit.
The Savage .243 should be good for more than 200 yards. No where to shoot 300+?

Yeah eating so much isn't as easy as it seems, unless it's junk food lol. The only range with any distance is the 100/200 yard one, no where around here is 300 unfortunately. I wish it would stop snowing so I could go shoot already! |

Enjoy my friend. What kind of optics did you get for it? Or just sticking with iron sights for close shooting?

It doesn't have iron sights unfortunately, but came packaged with a Simmons 3-9x40 scope. I've heard the scope is decent, not high end of course, but I'm sure the gun/scope combo will be more accurate than I can shoot.

Not a bad combo.

Flat Bench 10x45, 5x135, 3x185, 3x205, 3x215, 4x225
Standing OHP 6x45, 6x110, 6x115, 6x120
Tricep Pushdowns 10x140, 9x155
Hanging Leg Raises BWx25
Notes: HUGE PR on the bench today, I don't believe I've ever even done 2x225 prior to today on the flat bench. Overhead presses pretty easy as was most everything. Today was most certainly an "on" day! |
