CHEST DAY:

FLAT BENCH PRESS:

Warm up Sets:
95 X 10
115 X 10

Heavy Sets:
175 X 6
175 X 5 (6)
175 X 4 (5) (6) (Parantheses meaning I had a spot for it helping )

INCLINE BARBELL PRESS:

Heavy Sets:
135 X 6 3 sets

FLAT DUMBBELL PRESS:

Warm up Sets:
35 X 10

Heavy Sets:
60 X 6 2 sets

Yay! Increased 10 pounds on incline barbell press. Here's a little story for ya...6 weeks ago when I never had done incline bench press in my life I saw this pretty built guy doing the same flat bench weight as me. I then saw him move on over to the incline bench and saw him do 135 pounds (2 plates) so I thought "Hey, I must be able to do that too". So I asked him if it was easier/harder than decline and he said it was harder. He told me to give it a try and the weight violently fell to my legs (almost lost my nuts). I then tried 115 and couldnt do it...then I tried 105....couldnt do it. Sigh...... BUT! Now I am doing 135 pounds 3X6 .

Today also marks the day of my new diet. I've just been doing this lately for months:

BREAKFAST: Muffin bar for breakfast
BACK FROM WORK: Granola Bar
AFTER WORKOUT LUNCH: 2 chicken breast 1/2 cup rice 5-6ish pm
1 dose creatine, 2 scoops whey protein (50g)
SNACK: Granola Bar
2 scoops whey protein (50g)
DINNER: 2 chicken breast 1/2 cup rice at 10ish pm
SNACK: Granola Bar
LATE NIGHT SNACK: Granola Bar

Well, it may seem like I was eating 6 times a day but I really wasnt. I was basically just having 2 big meals a day. I now changed my diet to this:

BREAKFAST: Bowl of Cereal with fat free milk (10:15 AM)
1 scoop whey protein (25g)
OFF TO WORK (11:00 AM)
BACK FROM WORK: 5mg Creatine (1 dose) (4:30 PM)
1 scoop whey protein (25g)
OFF TO GYM (5:00 PM)
BACK FROM GYM (6:00 PM)
SUPPLEMENTING: 5mg Creatine (1 dose) (6:15 PM)
2 scoop whey protein (50g)
AFTER WORKOUT MEAL #1: 1 chicken breast (6:30 PM)
1/4th cup rice
Barbecue Sauce with Rice/Chicken
AFTER WORKOUT MEAL #2: 1 chicken breast (7:30 PM)
1/4th cup rice
Barbecue Sauce with Rice/Chicken
AFTER WORKOUT MEAL #3: 1 chicken breast (8:30 PM)
1/4th cup rice
Barbecue Sauce with Rice/Chicken
AFTER WORKOUT MEAL #4: 1 chicken breast (9:30 PM)
1/4th cup rice
Barbecue Sauce with Rice/Chicken
LATE NIGHT SNACK: Granola Bar (12:00 PM-1:00 AM)

CALORIES: 2620g
FAT: 28.5g
PROTEIN: 241g
CARBS: 348g
WATER: 1 and 3/4th gallon

MAX-OT WEIGHTLIFTING: Mon-Fri
MAX-OT CARDIO: Sat-Sun

Well, that is the complete new plan I plan to carry out. What is everyones thoughts? The only thing I hate about this plan is the high amount of carbs. I'm trying to lose fat and gain muscle at the same time and alot of carbs scare me. I hit the weights 5 times a week and do cardio 2 times a week. Do you all think I will lose fat and gain muscle with this plan as it is?

ARMS DAY:

STRAIGHT BAR CURLS:

Heavy Sets:
80 X 6 3 Sets

HAMMER CURLS:

Heavy Sets:
45 X 6 3 sets

CABLE PUSH-DOWNS:

Heavy Sets:
160 X 6 3 sets

LYING TRICEP EXTENSIONS:

Alrighty tighty, I waited and waited and waited and finally increased in my straight bar curl. I also increased in my cable push downs. I tried to go ahead and increase in my skull crusher/lying tricep extension exercise but it was just too much. Overall it was a pretty good day aside from the fact that I had to rush my workout because my friend was waiting on my ride to go home. He followed me around to each exercise throwing in comments like "Are you doing that right?" and so on. Anyway, Wednsday is Shoulder/Trap day...I am trying the good ol 110 pounds for military press, wish me luck.

Decided to toss pull-ups in the equation. I really need to start doing deadlifts but it is just so hard to do with these nazis not letting you move weight around. At least I finally increased my weight on back day...sometimes I think I've made 0 progress with my back.
