Hey guys (and gals),

I’ve decided to keep (somewhat) of a log, it will not go into great detail, about EVERYTHING, but hopefully it will be enough to help out myself and others a little.

As much as I'd like to post pics, unfortunately I will not be able to; anytime soon. Due to my career and present location (and being very recognizable - too many tattoos). Possibly after this stint here, I'll follow up with some before and after pics.

As always, please chime in, if you think I can tweak anything or just stop-by to drop a line.

Note: I am approx. 2 weeks in now, 1st week sucked due to sickness

STATS: 31yrs old / 6’4” / 252lbs / @17% BF / Training for 5 years/ Seriously for past 17 months (with diet lacking previously)

Hey Brother, hopefully the pics will come sooner rather than later :D Yeah, I'm actually planning on running the HCGenerate starting wk 5 and then throughout (Had planned on starting it wk 4 but future travel plans out of the conrty for 5 days put a stop to that), do need the boys to stay full and plump though. I will miss one pin due to the traveling but other than that, the work will stay the same.
 
4/12 Fri - Hit the gym, ready to go to work....wasn't too bad until my last set of Deads, I lost form and felt a very slight pull in my lower right back. It wasn't too bad, it subsided after I cut my Squats a little short and finished them up........

Sat 4/13 Sun 4/14 - Days Off.....And believe me when I say, I felt like I NEEDED them. Besides feeling like I was hit by a truck, I am feeling REALLY good most of the time. The lack of carbs, doesn't seem to be affecting me as much as I thought it would.

Mon 4/15 - Another Pin Day (Finally :) Hit the gym and felt like a beast (Even if I wasn't pushing as much weight as I'd like to.......Cardio seemed a lot easier, 40 minutes Eliptical

Wed 4/17 - Off Day but thinking of hitting cardio tonight...we'll see how it plays out.
 
You're doing 40+ sets and then cardio eating only 2000 calories while weighing 250 lbs? This just doesn't seem right. Your maintenance caloric needs should be over 3500 cals with only basic exercise. You're going balls to the wall, spending what, 2 hours at the gym? Perhaps revisit your diet. Other than that your lifting looks good. A bit accessory lift heavy for me but you start out with compounds. Perhaps focus on improving those if your back is feeling up to it by upping the weight and lowering the reps?
