Hey whats up, I just registered today after lurking for awhile and thought I'd take advantage of this by starting a journal.

Anyways some background information...I'm 16 years old, I've been working out on and off for almost 2 years. I'm 6'3 and about 190lbs. I have no real specific goals besides increasing my all around body strength, although I'd really like to have better defined abs (who doesn't?). My workout is based on Max-OT, though I don't follow it religiously it seems to be the most no-nonsense-routine out there, and I owe alot to it. For supplements, I've tried creatine and have had alot of success since, though I'm not sure if I really needed the creatine all along. So for now I'll just take a protein shake 2x a day. Also on a random note, my cardio is limited because I've developed shin splints and would like to avoid running.... So without further ado this is my weekly routine by memory.

Mondays - Legs/Abs
Squats
Deadlifts
Leg Extensions
Lying Leg Curls
Incline Leg Press
------
Weighted Crunches
Hanging Leg Extensions
Cable Rope Crunches

Tuesday - Chest/Cardio
Dumbell Chest Press
Flat Bench Press
Decline Bench Press
Incline Bench Press
Machine Chest Flys
------
Stairmaster

Wednesday - Back/Shoulders/Triceps/Abs
Lat Pull Downs
Pull Ups
------
Standing Barbell Press
Barbell Shrugs
------
Dips
French Press
------
Cable Rope Crunches
Hanging Leg Raises

Thursday - Cardio
Stairmaster
Bike

Friday - Biceps/Abs
Alternating Dumbell Curls
Hammer Curls
E-Z Bar Curls
Barbell Curls
------
Weighted Crunches
Cable Rope Crunches
Hanging Leg Raises


As I do them this week I'll put some numbers to the exercises to give you a general idea of what I can do, and to keep track of any gains. I'll also try to put together a general diet plan over the course of this week. Thanks for reading, and wish me luck.

notes:

-The weights I'm doing are too light, going to try to raise by a few pounds to be exhausted by 6 reps
-Been slacking on my cardio and abs but they're not a very high priority for me at this point
-No school on friday and I might skip classes tomorrow so I'll be missing a good portion of my routine this week Smile

-Good day, i'll be really sore tomorrow
-went to GNC to restock on whey protein, there was a tub of the stuff i normally buy on sale for 20$! (originally 100$) reason being that it expires in 2 months. I can easily devour that stuff in 2 months so it was a damn good deal.
-I really gave it my all on this hammer curl bar that I usually never use. It felt good having those huge weights on each end and having everyone watch in awe Smile My biceps are my biggest bragging rights in that class so I love showing those kids how its done every fridaySmile
