Hey, everyone I’ve been lurking around for a while and decided its time to start my own log. My main goal is to gain some lean muscle weight and not be a weak scrawny guy any more. I’ve been following this plan for about 2 months now and I made some gains
Height is 6’2
Starting weight: 158lbs
Current weight: 167lbs *Edit Dec 8 ,2010 170 lbs
I’m going to aim to go above 175lbs, maybe up to 180/185 because I Know I’m putting on a little fat in this process. So at the end of my gain I will throw some cardio in to burn that fat and be leaner at 175lbs
I am currently using Westside for skinny bastards (though slightly modified).
My diet is around 3000 calories a day; I spread that out into six smaller meals.
I get about 240g of carbs, 120g of protein, and 70g of fat per day.
Typical meals for me consist of Eggs with whole wheat toast and milk; I eat a lot of peanut butter on whole wheat with milk, turkey burgers, brown rice, potatoes, yogurt, some good source of protein such as chicken and red meat
Due to lack of money getting as much red meat has been an issue, but I do my best to have at least one meal a day focused around chicken, fish, or steak. I realize I don’t get much veggie this is for two reasons:
A: I’m a poor ass college student who can hardly afford the food mentioned above
B: I don’t like veggies
I don’t take meal supplements cause I don’t believe I need them, I prefer to keep it natural. I do how ever take a multivitamin because with the lack of veggies I find it hard to get the vitamins I need.
That was a longer write up than I expected, any ways here is today’s workout.
Leg press 170lbs: 3x5
Dumbbell walking lunges 40lbs: 3x11
Single legged leg curls: 30lbs: 3x8
Wrist work out
Preacher reverse curls 45lbs: 3x6
Forearm curls 25lbs: 3x6
Behind back forearm curls 45lbs: 3x8
Abs
Bridge 30 seconds: x3
Side bridges 30 seconds: x3 (each side)
I would like to swap leg press with squat eventually, but I just suck at squats. I can’t seem to get the form down at all. I’ve watched several instruction videos, but no matter how I do them my lower back ends up hurting a little.Also, I go heavy on my abs on Mondays so I like to give them a different kind of workout with the bridges on Wednesdays.
This is something I have always wanted to do, I’ve already made some gains and I hope this log will help me keep track of future improvements.
