Hey man nice to see someone doing the 20 reppers they are really brutal. Quite a different workout regime you got there, nowadays it seems most people drown themselves in isolation exercises to avoid doing the real basic exercises.
Keep it up with the squats. Dont worry too much if dips varie a little since the bodyweight have a tendency to shift.

Thanks Lifeforce...I didn't think of it that way...It's almost like I'm doing weighted dips, especially with all the food EFFORT has me throwing down my gullet. Don't worry, I'm doing this routine and I'm gonna friggin nail it.
*I'm a firm believer now more than ever is that if you want to be big and strong...you gotta eat big and properly. I'm scared how big I'll be by the end of this year. weighing in around 216-218 lbs right now is scaring the crap out of me haha
Right-o, I'm only doing a half gallon of milk at the moment so I can always drink more too. I didn't nail it completely yesterday because of the concert and waking up late...blah blah blah...but i didn't miss any meals even though I had to cheat with some McDees due to time constraints.EFFORT said:

Sounds good man, If all other lifts get a little stronger then it should be no worries. If dips dont increase for several times maybe there is a form issue to be worked out.
Cool man, Im drinking bout half a gallon a day as well. Used to drink 1.5 gallon at most but got horrible acne from it. Seems to be good to get muscle from. You're gonna be a beast man.
Anyways, im'a follow this journal and give you a virtual kick in the butt from time to time :trouble:

Like these guys are saying... you're a total beast! I still expect to see that quarter ton deadlift tho, a 400 lb squat, and a 3-plate front squat! At your weight it won't be too hard. Keep chippin away man! You're totally inspiring me for my upcoming bulking cycle!
Just because a woman listens to you and acts interested in what you say doesn't mean she really is. She might just be acting polite, while silently wishing that the date would hurry up and end, or that you would go away... and never come back.

Well I don't feel quite like a beast yet Fuglydude...but I'm getting there slowly. I hope to have the lifts you outlined...lets see what happens after my milk and squats routine. 4 more weeks to go. And I'm glad I inspire you, you inspire me and so does everyone else on this board. It's great to see everyone working hard to make changes in their life and becoming more healthy. I hope you log that bulk cycle.
Lifeforce...so far the milk I feel is adding some weight to me. I'm taking in something like 6000 calories...i don't even know anymore haha. Just so you know I'm not a great kicker, but I throw a good right hook... so be on the lookout!
FRIDAY-
My calf is still hurting, today maybe worse. I'm starting think i definitely pulled something there although it doesn't really effect my squat so thats one good thing. Stupid personal trainer made me fvck my calf up....ARGH!! (no offense to some of you trainers on here) Anyways I got my session done, no problemo. Will be icing, having a hot bath, and foam rolling my leg this weekend somewhere between my Judas Priest Boston and Styx concerts
1x20 Squats --1x20 PR 185 lbs - Finally got this, 190 will fall on monday
DB Pullovers
1x20 - 30 lbs - Very deep breathing, nice and slow...i like these
Super set 3x ==all were to failure
Dips /bw\
1x9 1x10 1x9 - 28 reps - PR I focused on perfect form for these, much better preformed than my previous record so this is my new personal best
Pullups /bw\
1x3 1x3 1x3 - 9 reps total - Just not feeling these today...pretty sore from wednesday
Decline situps /bw\
1x33 1x39 1x33 - 105 reps PR - Very nice, I'm getting stronger
That's all to report...later alligator

Hey bro
What's the logic behind the Dips, why do you do so many per set?

Thanks a lot reborn ...trust me...it was very hard twenty reps!
As for the dips...the last two sessions have been tough due to A. drinking yesterday B. Lack of sleep. Just as long as I hit failure each time and I feel stronger I'm a happy guy.
As for the decline situps...I just added about 50 lbs to it and I've been giving it my all. I do them much slower than when I did bodyweight because it rubs on my chest when i go down and hurts like a b1tch. Just as long as I hit the squat each time I'm happy. I'm about half way done so it's going well.

It's supposed to be man God I remember how awful it was to do those 20 rep sets. 12th rep was the worst for me, exhausted but still 8 reps to go. Not to mention the 18th. Keep it up though you're having great gains. I shiver just reading this journal.
Ye, know you put on alot of weight on the sit-up, you're still hitting large volume though. I think you have some hidden reserves left in the sit-up to take advantage of Try bringing a towel or something and put between the weight and your chest if it hurts. It might soften a little compared to a T-shirt.

Master Don Juan
Thanks very much Reborn...I do the best I can but the help I recieve from here is amazing. If anything at all, I just want to inspire others to work hard.
Haha I agree, just around the 12th to 14th rep I want to just put the weight down and give up...but luckily I've got my brother cheering me on so I can't let him down. Good tip btw for the situps with the shirt. I'm letting EFFORT train me so if he says to add more than I def will. Right now I just do what I'm told lol.
kickureface - Idk what time frame exactly you want but I'll try to put it out here clearly for everyone ---
(started cutting/starving myself here)
Feb. 07 I weighed 208 lbs - August 30th 2007 - 163 lbs - 43 lb loss
Sept. 1 2007 to October 1 2007 I bulked to 190 lbs (EXTREMELY INCORRECTLY with lots of weight gainers...I was yo-yoing and my metabolism was extremely bad (lost tons of muscle with the cut) --27 lb gain
October 1 to Novemeber 7th, 2007 - I went from 190 lbs to 178 lbs by cutting/starving myself again (was about 13% bodyfat...even had slight sixpack) 12 lb loss
November 8th 2007 was when the bulk began....I went from 178 lbs to 220 lbs just about Bf is probably around 18-21% now - 42 pound gain in 9 months

That is AWESOME bro, well done indeed. You've been giving the 20 rep squats hell AND (more importantly) you've been eating like a machine. That's a recipe (ha ha) for success. Don't worry about the increased bodyfat. Losing fat is 3-4 months' work for most people (unless they're in really bad shape).. gaining strength and size takes way longer.I-tallionStallion said:

Thanks very much Warboss :rockon:
I agree, the added bodyfat sucks as it covers most of my work haha. I eat everything I'm suppose to eat everyday...RARELY do i miss a meal or have to cheat but something I've learned from all of this is just being organized and consistent. I see a lot of people who want to change their bodies...but they always make the mistake of not being consistent with meals. It really is the simpliest thing to do but a lot of people screw up. I'll probably do the "Lets get shredded diet" to lose the weight possibly. I just don't want to lose muscle or strength.
Today I kicked a$$ on the squats...nice having the energy back in me. Did adequate at everything else

Going strong! Keep it up!
I highly recommend large amounts of BCAA's when you are taking the fat off. They are costly, but if you read Iron Addict and his moderator Sand Blaster's reviews on them they are a massively beneficial when taking the fat off. A lot more easy to retain/gain muscle and recovery is better.
