Weight: 220 pounds Body Fat: ~28% (~158.4 pounds lbm, 61.6 pounds fat) Measurements: Chest (just above nipples, expanded): 115.3 cm (45.4 in) Waist (at navel, fully relaxed): 107.5 cm (42.3 in) Hips: 101 cm (39.7 in) Left Biceps: 37.1 cm (14.6 in), Right Biceps: 37.3 cm (14.7 in) Left Quad: 59.7 cm (23.5 in), Right Quad: 60 cm (23.6 in) Left calf: 42.2 cm (16.6 in), Right calf: 42.5 cm (16.7 in) Left Forearm: 29.6 cm (11.7 in), Right Forearm: 30.8 cm (12.1 in) Well, my weight hasn't changed this week from last week, which is actually a bit of a shock. My diet more or less went to hell (I was making eclairs for a meeting at work, and had far too many foods that are, well, not on any cutting diet I've ever seen). We'll try to clean that up this week, even if I am getting really sick of salmon. As for the measurements, there's no big changes from last time, but I'd hardly expect to see a huge jump in just two weeks (especially since these weren't a particularly rough two weeks). Oh yeah... pictures (if you have the stomach for them) are available at my Sweating with the toadies journal (link is in my sig).

Workout 5A AM Workout Max-OT style warmup. Superset: Â Â Â Â Barbell Curls : 70 : 9, 7, 6 ; 60 : 9, 9 Â Â Â Â Calf Raises : 205 : 9, 8, 7, 8, 8 Â Â Â Â Hammer Curls : 30 : 9, 8, 7, 6 ; 25 : 9 Started: 6:31 AM -- Finished: 7:08 AM Workout music: The Halo Benders - The Rebels Not In PM Workout Max-OT style warmups Superset: Â Â Â Â Barbell Row (underhand grip) : 115 : 9, 9, 9, 8, 8 Â Â Â Â Barbell Shrug : 180 : 9, 8, 6 ; 170 : 8, 7 Superset: Â Â Â Â Wide-grip Pull-ups (assisted) : 9, 9, 9, 9, 7 Â Â Â Â Leg Curls (lying) : 110 : 9, 8, 7, 6 ; 100 : 7 Started: 6:32 PM -- Finished: 7:10 PM Workout music: Neko Case & Her Boyfriends - Furnace Room Lullaby AM Workout notes: As I get into the third week, I'm making another slight switch, in that I'm going to be doing the shorter part of the workout in the morning instead of the evening session. Why? I prefer to get to work early and leave early as opposed to arriving late and staying late. This helps me get there a few minutes early. With that in mind, how did the workout go? Well, I actually felt pretty strong on the last set -- which shouldn't be two hard to understand, and I had dropped the weight on two out of the three exercises from my starting point. Still it wasn't all that bad -- of course this is just the start of the "downhill slide" portion of the phase, so I should probably keep from being too chipper, else next week really bites me in the ass... PM Workout notes: OK, another day, another dollar -- that pretty much sums up this workout. It wasn't particularly hard (though I was consistently losing strength on a couple of the exercises), and I didn't feel particularly worn out a few minutes after I had finished (though I was dog tired after finishing any given set, and I do feel ready for bed already). We'll see how the morning treats me when I have to get up early and squat...

<sniff... sniff...> Is that brimstone I'm smelling? Workout 5B AM Workout Max-OT style warm ups Superset: Â Â Â Â Incline DB Flys : 30 : 9, 9, 9, 9, 9 (+5) Â Â Â Â Military Dumbbell Press : 35 : 9, 7, 5 ; 30 : 6 ; 20 : 9 Â Â Â Â Close-Grip Bench Press : 80 : 9, 9, 9, 9, 9 (+5) Start: 6:38 -- Finish: 7:04 Workout music: Pixies - Bosanova PM Workout Max-OT style warm ups Superset: Â Â Â Â Squats : 185 : 9, 9, 7, 8, 7 Â Â Â Â DB Skull-crushers : 20 : 9, 9, 9, 9, 8 Superset: Â Â Â Â Quad Extensions : 185 : 9, 9, 8, 7, 8 Â Â Â Â Incline Barbell Press : 110 : 8, 6 ; 100 : 8, 7, 7 Start: 6:11 PM -- Finish: 7:00 PM Workout music: Handsome Boy Modeling School - So... How's Your Girl AM Workout notes: Something is wrong with my left shoulder. I started out low on strength, having to shift from my original starting weight of 40 pounds for the military presses to 35 just four reps into the first set, and just had to keep dropping the weight through the morning, ending up at just 20 pounds... Immediately after the workout there was pain (the throbbing, inflamed kind, not the sharp or stabbing kind) in the shoulder which faded in a few minutes, leaving me with just a weak feeling shoulder. Fortunately, the pain doesn't seem to really affect my other lifts, not even the incline BP, so perhaps I could just drop the military presses from Phase I and rest the shoulder for the two weeks before I start Phase II. I'm going to check with Twin Peak and see what I should do about this... Other than that, the rest of the workout went just spiffy. I'm just about dialed in to my proper weight for the close grip bench presses, and the flys went pretty smoothly as well. I'm considering bumping up the weight a bit, but I'd have to add five pounds to each hand (a 17% jump), and I worry about tweaking my shoulder a bit more if I add too much weight. Oh well, gotta run to work for a department meeting. PM Workout notes: Dear lord my quads are fried... Five sets of squats followed by five sets of leg extensions will do that to you, I guess. What makes it worse is I may have done six sets of extensions. I swear I had finished three sets when I went to record the fourth set... lo and behold, there were only two sets marked in the log... besides feeling four sets of gassed, the screen had also turned off, indicating a longer than normal gap between entry times. Oh well, it wasn't booked, so I didn't count it. Anyway, I think I'm going to sleep until Friday, when I have to work out again.

Can you do lateral raises, or anything else for shoulders? If so, sub it, if not drop them.

Workout 6A AM Workout Max-OT style warmup. Superset: Â Â Â Â Barbell Curls : 70 : 9, 7, 6 ; 60 : 9, 7, 8! Â Â Â Â Calf Raises : 205 : 9, 9, 8, 9, 9, 9 (+10) Â Â Â Â Hammer Curls : 30 : 9, 7, 7 ; 25 : 9, 8, 9! Started: 6:50 AM -- Finished: 7:23 AM Workout music: The Tea Party - The Interzone Mantras PM Workout Max-OT style warmups Superset: Â Â Â Â Barbell Row (underhand grip) : 115 : 9, 9, 9, 9, 8, 8 Â Â Â Â Barbell Shrug : 180 : 9, 8, 7, 6 ; 170 : 7, 7 Superset: Â Â Â Â Wide-grip Pull-ups (assisted) : 9, 9, 9, 8, 7, 7 Â Â Â Â Leg Curls (lying) : 110 : 9, 8, 7, 6 ; 100 : 9, 9 Started: 6:57 PM -- Finished: 7:46 PM Workout music: The New Pornographers - Mass Romantic AM Workout notes: Well, I can think of a lot more pleasant, yet much less effective ways of waking up in the morning than crawling out of bed and jumping into one of these workouts. My biceps are pretty much gone right now... I forced out one last "cheater rep" for each of the curls on the last set, and when I was done I just about had to pick up my water glass with both hands to take a drink. Hell, I'm typing this right now with my hands on my knees so I won't have to strain my biceps any more... showering will be fun. As for my calves, I have no idea what's up with them... they never get painful, they just get tired. I suppose they got used to doing a truckload of work back when they were hauling my fat ass all around the town. Can't wait for tonight when I get the joy of doing those damn underhand rows with tired biceps. Ugh! PM Workout notes: Well despite this workout containing my least favorite exercise and superset of the entire phase, it is by far the easiest of the sub-workouts. Not really sure why that is, but it's the one workout that I never feel particularly worn out from.

Workout 6B AM Workout Max-OT style warm ups Superset: Â Â Â Â Squats : 185 : 9, 9, 9, 8, 8, 8 (+10) Â Â Â Â DB Skull-crushers : 25 : 9, 9, 7, 6 ; 20 : 8, 8 Superset: Â Â Â Â Quad Extensions : 185 : 9, 9, 8, 8, 8, 8 (+5) Â Â Â Â Incline Barbell Press : 110 : 9, 8, 6 ; 100 : 8, 7, 7 Start: 9:52 AM -- Finish: 10:50 AM Workout music: Catherine Wheel - Chrome (How appropriate... as I was starting my fifth set of squats, Pain started playing...) PM Workout Max-OT style warm ups Superset: Â Â Â Â Incline DB Flys : 35 : 9, 9, 9, 8, 8, 7 Â Â Â Â Close-Grip Bench Press : 90 : 9, 9, 9, 6! ; 85 : 8, 8 Start: 4:27 PM -- Finish: 4:49 PM Workout music: Dink - Blame It On Tito (Just 49 cents for this excellent EP through Amazon... hop on it while you can) AM Workout notes: Flaming monkeys on a pogo stick! My quads are so hard right now I think you could break a two-by-four over them. You know how I said last night's workout is the easiest of the lot? Well this one is by far the most demanding, yet most rewarding of the bunch. When I step out of that gym, I know I've done some work; I feel like ass, I look like ass, hell... I probably smell like ass -- and that's because I busted my ass. I really can't wait until next weeks version of this workout rolls around so I can kick it's ass. Of course, having said that, I also realize that the cumulative effect of these workouts is just now beginning to set in. I could tell I was getting tired on my second and third sets of these exercises (though my strength still seems to be going up on some of them), and next week, I might be getting tired before I even finish my warm-ups... One big down note, however. Last night I tore my thumbnail a bit while picking up a 25 pound plate (damn thing slipped out of my grasp and took a chunk of nail with it), and today I kept whacking it on stuff... not fun. PM Workout notes: Well, I had to drop the military press from the workout due to my hurt left shoulder. I tried subbing in lateral raises, but it was a pure "no go" situation. I'm just going to rest the shoulder until Phase II and hope the inflammation goes away. With the dropping of the military presses, that made this part of the split pretty quick and simple. I'll probably move the incline bench or skull-crushers into this session from the morning session on Wednesday, and I might just do all of 8B in one shot next week... we'll see.

Seems like cpl was doing the same. Super-setting. Not the same muscle group but doing from squats to tris or whatever to keep things moving. Yep. You pretty much have to do that to get the workout done in the 90 minute guidelines. quote:
What if you did not super-set? You just did squats. Rested for 60-90 seconds.. did it again. Would this Phase 1 take forever? You might be able to get away with that if you did it for just one exercise per day (like just doing squats so you can get a good rest afterwards). But part of the aim of this phase, apparently, is to keep the time compressed and not give the body the rest it is craving. Hell, today, I actually developed a mild side stitch from bouncing between lifts so fast and screwing up my breathing rhythm... That's never happened to me while lifting before.

OK, for week three's official weigh-in we have: Weight: 221.5 pounds, Body Fat: ~26% (163.91 pounds lbm, 57.59 pounds fat) So either my scale has gone wonky, or I've gained five pounds of lean body mass and dropped four pounds of fat in one week... While I'd love it to be the first, I'm more willing to believe the second, and even more willing to believe the truth is somewhere in between. Sigh... maybe it's time to shell out for a set of calipers...

Workout 7A AM Workout Max-OT style warmup. Superset: Â Â Â Â Barbell Curls : 70 : 9, 8, 6; 65 : 9, 8, 8, 8 Â Â Â Â Calf Raises : 215 : 9, 9, 9, 9, 8, 8, 7 Â Â Â Â Hammer Curls : 30 : 9, 7. 6, 6; 27.5 : 8; 25 : 8, 8 Started: 6:44 AM -- Finished: 7:20 AM Workout music: The Clash - The Story of The Clash (disc 1) (Very appropriate musical choice, as it contains The Magnificent Seven, Straight To Hell, and Armageddon Time...) PM Workout Max-OT style warmups Superset: Â Â Â Â Barbell Row (underhand grip) : 115 : 9, 9, 8, 8, 7, 7, 7 Â Â Â Â Barbell Shrug : 180 : 9, 9, 8, 7, 7, 7, 6 Superset: Â Â Â Â Wide-grip Pull-ups (assisted) : 9, 9, 9, 8, 7, 7, 7 Â Â Â Â Leg Curls (lying) : 110 : 9, 9, 7, 7, 6; 100 : 9, 8 Started: 6:31 PM -- Finished: 7:29 PM Workout music: The Jesus And Mary Chain - Munki AM Workout notes: Ugh! I think that's about the best way to sum things up. I didn't really want to get out of bed and hit the gym this morning, but I realized that if I didn't, then it would have to be the full workout in one session -- and there's no way I want to deal with that. It was bad enough back in the days of three sets -- I'm pretty sure if I tried it for seven, my arms would just fall right off... Speaking of arms, this particular superset I'm using is just evil... first I do a set of curls, which gets the biceps all short and tight, then I follow it up with a set of calf raises which, since I'm clutching on to a heavy bar stretches the biceps (and particularly the biceps tendon) back out, then I have to go and hit a set of hammer curls... no fun. PM Workout notes: After I finished this workout, I took my dog, Luther, out for a walk. During the walk, my traps started to tighten up, and they still haven't loosened up fully. My hamstrings on the other hand, aren't hurting... they just feel dead -- like a couple of hollow logs. I think I'm going to need a good night of sleep before tomorrow's workout.

Workout 7B AM Workout Max-OT style warm ups Squats : 195 : 9, 7, 6; 185 : 7, 6; 175 : 8, 7 Superset: Â Â Â Â Quad Extensions : 185 : 9, 9, 8, 8, 8, 7, 7 Â Â Â Â Incline Barbell Press : 110 : 9, 8, 7, 6; 100 : 8, 7, 8 Start: 6:52 AM -- Finish: 7:50 AM Workout music: Mott The Hoople - All The Young Dudes: The Anthology (disc 2) PM Workout Max-OT style warm ups Superset: Â Â Â Â Incline DB Flys : 35 : 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9 (+2.5) Â Â Â Â DB Skull-crushers : 25 : 9, 9, 6; 20 : 9, 7, 8, 7 Â Â Â Â Close-Grip Bench Press : 90 : 9, 9, 9, 9, 8, 8, 7 Start: 6:52 PM -- Finish: 7:27 PM Workout music: Marillion - Clutching At Straws (remastered version) AM Workout notes: I have nothing left... this workout felt 10 times harder to do than workout 6B(despite moving the skullcrushers to the evening session, and only being one set longer). Squats were particularly rough, because my hamstrings were just gone from yesterday's session, and it was a real **** getting my ass off the deck... That's not to say the other lifts were cake. Before doing my fourth set of bench presses, I remember looking up at the bar and thinking, "You know, no one would know if I quit now and just faked the rest of the data..." Then I struggled to put up six reps and thought, "... yeah. No one but me." PM Workout notes: Well, moving the skullcrushers into this superset really makes a difference in two ways. First, it gives me a bit less time to recover between sets of squats -- time I really could use -- and it really wears the triceps down when paired with the closegrip bench presses. I really thought I wasn't going to get that last press up. I am really impressed by my performance with the flys today. The last couple of sets, I could barely press the dumbbells up into the starting position, but once I got going I was able to crank out my nine reps each time. And here I was last week, wondering if I should raise the weight for them.

quote:
You and cpl.. very similar things to say when you get towards the end. At Workout 8B he was toast! From the sounds of it.. you aren't training to failure. Just doing a crap-load of sets. And your body is tired. Major tired. Do you feel any DOMS? Like more sore then a Max-OT workout even though you did not go to failure? How's the appetite and sleeping requirements? No, I haven't been very sore at all -- just a bit in my traps and hamstrings yesterday and today. But I very rarely experience DOMS. I usually only get it when I haven't worked a muscle group in a while, and then after working it once or twice I don't get sore again. But what is really starting to kill me is the exhaustion. I am so tired right now it's insane. Mentally, physically, everything is just drained. I've been getting eight hours of solid sleep each night, and right now I feel like I haven't slept more than four hours a night for the past week. I actually took off from work an hour early today so I could catch a nap before my evening workout. I will be so happy when this week is over. As for the appetite, it's gone up a bit, but not as much as it did for cpl. I usually go about three hours between meals, now I need to eat about every two and a half hours, but the serving sizes are pretty much the same as before (I actually have to eat in 30 minutes, but I'm too farking tired to cook...).

Workout 8A AM Workout Max-OT style warmup.

At that point it wasn't a matter of how bad was I going to feel, it was a matter of how long I could handle feeling as lousy as I did. Of course, by the time I hit sets seven and eight, I realized just how wrong this assumption was. I'm so tired right now, I just want to find a hot tub, fall asleep in it, and drown. Unfortunately I have to finish tonight's and tomorrow's workouts first... PM Workout notes: Now this is one workout I am not going to miss; so much discomfort, so little sense of accomplishment or satisfaction. At least with the morning workout, or the B workouts, I leave the gym feeling like I was hit by a truck -- but I survived! With this workout, I leave the gym feeling like I was attacked by a swarm of mosquitos -- but I remembered where I kept the bug spray! It's just not as... worthwhile, or something. Hell, for all I know, this set of exercises might be doing the most good for my body, but even if I knew that for sure, I'm not sure that would make me like this any more. Meh... that's OK, it's over and done with. No more for at least 11 weeks...

Workout 8B -- The final! Max-OT style warm ups Superset: Â Â Â Â Squats : 195 : 9, 8, 7, 7, 6, 6; 185 : 8, 7 Â Â Â Â DB Skull-crushers : 25 : 9, 9, 9, 8, 7, 7, 6, 7 Superset: Â Â Â Â Quad Extensions : 185 : 9, 9, 8, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7 Â Â Â Â Incline Barbell Press : 110 :9, 7, 7, 6, 6; 100 : 8, 7, 6 Superset: Â Â Â Â Incline DB Flys : 37.5 : 9, 9, 5; 35 : 7, 6; 30 : 8, 8, 6 Â Â Â Â Close-Grip Bench Press : 90 : 9, 7, 6; 85 : 8, 7, 6; 75 :7, 6 Start: 9:58 AM -- Finish: 11:35 AM Workout music: Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Let Love In (An appropriately apocalyptic selection for this nastiest of workouts) Workout notes: Despite feeling fairly strong through the first two supersets of this workout (I did this one all in one sitting, rather than two, like I have been), I am so wiped out now I can't even think of anything to say here. I'm so wiped out that my triceps just cramped up while making my post-workout shake. I'm sure someday I'll look back fondly on this workout, but it won't be tomorrow, and it sure as hell isn't now. God... I know I have more to say, but I literally am having a hard time thinking right now. Maybe after resting for a while I'll have more to say. Oh, and to anyone who did these workouts in one sitting, rather than the two-a-days that I've been doing for the most part, my hat goes off to you, you are a far better man (or woman) than I.

Oh yeah... one thing I remembered that I wanted to ask yesterday: TP, if we are supposed to be experiencing a lot of growth in the week following week four, should we continue eating at higher calorie levels during that week, or should we drop it down to the standard week 1 levels?
