Chezzer - The Newbie

chezzer · 08-30-2005, 07:21 PM

Just want to say Hello to everyone here on this board...
I'm 34 yrs old and I have officially started working out correctly due in part to GamedayDog.
Much respect to Game in leading me into the right way of working out and applying his knowledge and of course others who have helped me along the way.
Over the next week or so I will posting what I am doing now since I am working with some people at Kre-Alkalyn on my workout routines.
Just like Game I am also a Guinea Pig into taking supplements. At this time I am going to take CEE and White Blood but CEE maybe replaced by Blue Rhino next week. I dont respond to creatine so I rather try Blue.

Here are my results from last night
and once again thanks to all on this board

LEGS, CALVES

SQUAT - w - 125lbs 10 reps 1 Set, went all the way down till my butt was almost by the floor, I took Game's advice and did the exercise correctly.

LEG EXT - w - 150lbs 2 Sets @ 10 reps each

LEG CURL - w - 150lbs 2 Sets @ 10 reps each

STANDING CALF RAISES - w - 200lbs 2 Sets @ 10 reps each

SITTING CALF RAISES - w - 70lbs 2 Sets @ 10 reps each (reason why this weight was low because the gym does not have a sitting calf machine, I had to use dumbbells...
maybe for the standing calf raises I can do the same for the sitting only I will squat all the way down but I don't want to hurt myself any other suggestions?

Thanks

Good going Chezzer. I'm going to start with WhiteBlood as soon as my order arrives from king. I'm thinking about the Blue Rhino, too.

*R*

GameDayDog · 08-30-2005, 09:57 PM

My man Chezzer...

I'm glad you're gonna have a thread here... I'm curious what ideas the people from Kre-Alkalyn come up with.. Hopefully we can learn a lot from you & them...

Controlled Labs has been putting out some great products... I'm considering running a White Blood & Blue Rhino stack as well.. but it'll be in the future as I believe I have a year supply of Tribulus & DHEA already... I haven't seen results, but I ordered a bunch of it and I'm stuck with it.. I may as well use it... Of course, nothing beats the results that come with a balanced diet...

Take care buddy, you know I'll follow your progress every step of the way...

Peace..~G

Hey Chez, great to ahve you aboard! :service: :bigthumbu

chezzer · 08-31-2005, 07:32 PM

Thanks all for the positives...

Game I have to apologize and say that Yes I did get PM on that other site in letting me know about your move....
It never occured to me to look at my messages...duh...

Well it has arrived, FOREARMZILLA!
thanks Game I will use it and post something later when I work out
I need to workout my forearms, my hitting and my pitching has been suffering lately...

GameDayDog · 08-31-2005, 09:37 PM

Dude, did you get a forearm bar from them too??? ...

I do 3 sets of 30 with 1:30 rest... and sometymes I superset...

Which means I do curls, then turn it around and do extensions ryght after each other...

If you got one, I can't wait to hear your thoughts on it.. *D

Peace..~G

chezzer · 08-31-2005, 09:48 PM

I read something about it and I went for it
Since i really need help in my forearms because my pitching and hitting have been suffering lately
i have really ignored my forearms
i will def post something tonight to see how it turned out

chezzer · 09-01-2005, 05:26 PM

I tried the forearm bar last night and man did it kill my forearms

at first i did 20lbs but then realized that my skin was about to fall off

i went down to 15 and that was much better after doing my sets it was thumping

great little item

Here is also last nights workout

Did my Day 2 Exercise today

Here are the results

Deadlift - 70 lbs - I know it is low but the place had no barbells or weights to go along with it
they only had two 35lb DB reps 20 to make up for the lack of weight

Close grip Pulldown - Palms facing me Weight - 150lbs 10 reps 2nd set 130lbs 10 reps

Low cable row - Weight - 162.5lbs 10 reps 2nd set 137.5 10 reps

Shrugs - 70lbs 10 reps 2nd set 60lbs 10 reps once again no barbells or weights for this exercise

Barbell Curl - they had a curl machine not a BB 100lbs reps 10 2nd set 75 lbs 10 reps

sorry if the numbers are not impressive but I am trying my best with what I got

GameDayDog · 09-01-2005, 08:03 PM

Wow.. I'm shocked you got one as well.. but I had no doubts that you would love it... When I use myne with 11 pounds (5 kg's), I get veins racing all the way to my shoulders and my forearms are ready to explode as well...

Meanwhyle, I styll applaud you for doing the best with what you got... but we gotta fynd you a gym... In the near future, your lack of equipment & weights are gonna seriously hinder your progress..

Peace..~G

chezzer · 09-02-2005, 07:20 PM

Worked out with the forearm bar and it took some time to get use to it but i am going forward pushing myself to at least do 3 sets of 10 reps

chezzer · 09-07-2005, 06:25 PM

Sorry for not writing lately
With Labor day going on I was not around.
Hope all had a good one here
this past Friday was my day 3 workout 1st week

Bench Press 150 10 Reps

Inc. DB Press 70 1st set 10 R, 60 2nd set 10 R - reason why the weight was not heavier is because this is the max weight they have in gym

Shoulder Press - 112.5 1st set 10 R, 87.5 2nd set 10 R

DB Side Raises - 70 1st set 10 R, 50 2nd set 10 R

Lying Tricep - 87.5 1st set 10 R, 62.5 2nd set 10 R

Ab Crunches - no weight on these just two sets 12 R each

the biggest improvement I have seen is my Bench I never got that high number but on that day I was feeling strong...

chezzer · 09-07-2005, 09:32 PM

So officially I am taking:

White Blood
Blue Rhino
Green Bulge :hyper2:

GameDayDog · 09-07-2005, 10:22 PM

That's a quality stack you got there... just remember it's Diet then Supplements.. or as we say around the forum..

Diet>Supplements

Question.. why are the weights going down, if you're only doing 2 sets... seems lyke you want to go heavy as possible for both sets... Did ya trainer mention the reasoning behind that... ??

Otherwyse.. don't sweat enjoyin' yaself on labor day man... Everybody had fun, except me.. as they don't have a labor day in thys country..

Peace..~G

chezzer · 09-08-2005, 03:36 PM

^^^^^^^^^^ this is what the trainer said regarding the weights...it has to do with cycles
slowly but gradually i am building the strength i can achieve
i will try what he says for now and if it doesnt work out i can always jump onto another routine

as long i am hitting those weights keeping a good diet and taking balco pills... :hyper2:

GameDayDog · 09-08-2005, 09:54 PM

Hmm.. If he mentions cycles.. he probably has you on a periodization program.. That's cool.. Go for it...

We have stickies on periodization training in the training section...

Thx for da answer...

Peace..~G

chezzer · 09-08-2005, 10:41 PM

BTW - about the stack today is my off day
do i take all of them today?

GameDayDog · 09-09-2005, 12:09 AM

Yep, most products nowadays will suggest you continue taking their products even on your off days.. If you not going to workout, then take it around the tyme you would normally workout...

During your off days, your body is styll growing and repairing itself... All the supplements & nutrients you provide will get used by the body... Which remynds me, it's a good tyme to mention that if you're eating a certain amount of calories... continue to eat the same amount on your off day to help your body repair, recover & grow...

Currently my only supplementation - food wise - is 50 grams of protein... On my off days, I get that from real foods - tuna, milk & boiled eggs... instead of using my protein powder up...

Peace..~G
