I have still been going strong with the gym, and I am trying to get better about putting my progress up here because I enjoy looking back and seeing my progress.  Lately I have been noticing a lot of gains.  I am getting very close to 200 lbs, and i just maxed out at 215 monday.  And i was kinda sick when I did that so i wonder if i could get up 220.  I am want to get up to 225 and then i will switch up my routine.  I am in the process of looking for a new routine now and I am trying to decide what i want to do.
 
Here is a list of things i want to improve on:
 
Lower Body Fat
Work on Core...abs especially
i want to try to get more cut, but still get bigger
try to focus on back and work on forearms
 
If anyone reads this please give some suggestions for workout plans i can do.
 
I am assuming I need to throw in more cardio so I guess I'll do some swimming once or twice a week and maybe a 10 minute intense run or stationary bike once a week.
 
My diet isnt great because my schedule is so different from day to day as a college student.  And I cant really moniter the source of my calories or how many i am taking in plus the drinking i think i need to burn more calories to keep my body fat down...

I am about to take a week off from lifting.  I might still do some ab workouts this week but I have been going hard for about 8-10 weeks, and it is time for a week off.  Last week or two my bench dropped like 10 lbs and i am thinking it might be due to fatigue.  I am going to take this week to finalize a new routine....One that will cut me down, my goal over the next 8 weeks is to get those abs to really show up.  The body fat is pretty much where it needs to be i think i might shoot to get it down to 6-7 instead of 8-9.  I think 5 is a little unrealistic considering i am in school(eg. cafeteria food, college weekends).  Maybe over break (6 weeks) i will try to cut it down...Also next routine I am going to try to get those legs working..in theory that should help everything else come along...I also want to get some good shoulder routines..
