| I was really into fitness and I got a copy of Muscle and Fitness mainly for the 'fitness' section. However, after awhile I began to desire the 'muscle' part more and haven't looked back. |
Week: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4-6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10
Week 4- Week 6
Well it has been a long time since drinks. I have been extremely busy of
late but now that I have actually begun university I am pretty sure I will
have more time to dedicate to writing articles and journals however I might
make them fortnightly as opposed to weekly.
There has been many changes to training over the past three weeks. The two
main ones are I have changed gyms and I am back training with my old
partner, Steve.
We used to train at a gym but it was just too far for me to travel, as we
live on opposite sides of town, so we began training by ourselves. However
we are now at university and making full use of there facilities out there.
The gym is good, not great but good. It is missing some of my favs, for
example a pullover machine and a GOOD cable station, but has extra power
racks and a platform for deadlifting/weightlifting.
As far as training has gone we have got right back to basics: Heavy benches,
heavier lockouts, deadlifts, deadlift lockouts, squats, leg presses, rows,
dips etc. and things are going well. My chest has never been bigger as now
I can go to failure without worrying about breaking ribs, although Steve has
trouble lifting the bar after really heavy negatives. My deadlift lockouts
have gone up 40kgs in only three weeks and I am feeling strong.
As I said before I have added cardio, 2-3 mornings a week for 20 minutes and
I think that has been beneficial, I have lost body fat while gaining weight.
So far I think I have gained a bit over 3 kgs of muscle however I will test
my body fat next week and know for sure.
As for supplements I am only using 2: creatine and Z-Mass PM (I will discuss
these in a later article). I am going to add some Methoxy in the form of
Gen MX7 when my next shipment from bodybuilding.com arrives and I hope that
will help even more.
That is about it at the moment, next time I will include a full routine and
more so until then remember:
Both tears and sweat are salty, but they render a different result. Tears
will get you sympathy, sweat will get you change.
