Thanks Dawn, and great idea, we will get a room

Trying my best to get cut, EME's diet plan is working well. I really should have started taking measurements around the waist and hips etc. Bodyfat is dropping and building muscle at the same time, what a deal :boink1:

5/5/06 Friday

Back / Abs / Cardio night

One of my favorite nights of the week.

Lat Pulldowns
8-10 x 5 (mixed grip from widde to narrow)

Deadlifts
2-10 x 4 (working sets to 360) felt good, I have a habit of going overboard on these lifts so I keep it in check now as to not stress my back out.

Smith Machine Bent Rows (yes, mixed it up a bit tonight, got to have some variation now and then)

6-10 x 3

Abs

Hanging Leg Raises
20-25 x 3

Weighted Ab Crunches
15-20 x 3

Cardio: what else? Treadmill 30 minutes 15 degree incline. Last 5 minutes felt a bit lightheaded, must have totally burnt thru any cabrs I had left in my body. Weight this morning was 222.0 so I'm hovering around my new base nicely. If my charts thus far hold true, I should be breaking thru this early next week to around 220ish.

Overall a pretty decent workout. I give it a 8.0 One point of me getting pretty mad, I was adding weights to the Bar for Deads and a 10lb plate fell off the side rack on my head. Ever see anyone toss a plate across the gym like a frisbee?

We have a lot of idiots in our gym that just throw plates everywhere. Saturday is off day. Upper body is shaved down, have some tanning stuff that FnF bought but a bit chicken to try it out for May update pics this weekend.

Don't worry it will be boxers this weekend, no speedos for this kid.

Sunday 5/7/06

Well, just got through doing my May picture updates: http://ironmass.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6811

I think I've made decent progress in my recomp for a month. You can be the judge. Dropped 7 pounds of fat and gained some lean mass at the same time. Weighed in at 221 this morning. Thanks to EME (Michael) for his efforts in my diet and training. :nosthumbs:

Tonight is Chest / Tri's / Abs / Cardio My elbow tendons are a bit sore today and my back is feeling the Friday w/o big time. Think it's time for the hottub treatment

**EME** · 05-07-2006, 06:45 PM

That's some awesome progress in 30 days VS!
Nice work!

5/7/06 Sunday

Chest / Tir's

Well I won;t even bother posting my workout tonight. I had one of the worst w/o's since I can remember. I didn't feel great and excited about going in the first place and maybe the attitude carried over. I felt weak as hell on Incline DB Press. For example, I did (3) sets the otherr week of 95's 10/8/6. Today, I layed back and couldn't even get them up in position the first try. Second try I did 7 reps.

I gave up and went to Hammer Strength Bench. Did pretty well there, comparable to last week but still felt week at the higher weights. I did about the same a bit worse than last week on triceps. At that point I was pissed, FNF was having a great workout and I was a dickhead to her. (Sorry hun)

I said the hell with Abs and Cardio and went to sit in the Steam Room for a while. Felt good on my joints and tendons. Maybe I should have taken the night off. I can't remember the last time I've had a workout like this and hopefully it was just an off night. Take care all, and have a good night.

5/8/06 Monday

Legs / Abs / Cardio

Had a better than average w/o tonight. I'd give it a 8.0 on Legs. Energy levels were good, Squats felt a bit heavy tonight but got through them well.
Leg Press was tortureous as I w/o'd with a younger kid that was using light weight so instead of changing weights back and forth I decided to really concentrate on feet together, slow movements, high reps and burn the hell outa my outer quads. Afte 3 sets of this, he booked, and I piled on some weight and did 2 more sets. Drop sets on the Leg Extensions almost made me cry and puke at the same time. God those hurt soooooo good.

Leg Curls were a strain, drop sets on those as well. Then I hobbled literally over to the Treadmill. The first 10 minutes were killer, my knees wouldn't even bend right. Got throught the cardio and just drenched 3/4's of my tank, moved on to abs and blew those away. My abs are definitely getting stronger

So overall, I was pleased with tonights efforts. 222.5 on the scale this morning, no surprise as yesterday was carb-up day.

Hack Squat
8-10 x 4
6 x 1

Leg Press
10-12 x 4
7-10 x 2

Leg Extensions
10-15 x 3 x 2 drops sets

Leg Curl
10-15 x 3 x 2 drop sets

Abs

Crunches
25 x 3

Hanging Leg Raise
20 x 3

Cardio: Treadmill at 15 degree incline 30 minutes. (I burn 460 cals consistenly on this for anyone who cares).

That's all for tonight's update. Definitely better than last nights w/o :nosthumbs:
