Back in the iron game!

Newbie...Back in the iron game!

Well I've just joined this site and it seems interesting and very informative. I hope to learn and contribute tremendously. My problem has always been consistency. I tend to get huge, ripped and powerful only to grow content and LAZY. My goal is to maintain this time, with the help of feedback (positive or negative). So here's my story. I'm 5'7, 195lbs probably about 16% bodyfat. I've worked out off and on for the last 13 years. One year has been about my longest consisitant run yet. I've never tried gear, because I've never had the means or availability when I was younger, and now because my current profession strictly prohibits it's use. :( My current goals, I think, are in line with most peoples goals. I want to get as large as possible while shedding any excess body fat. Not asking for much right:rolleyes: That's also been another of my problems. trying to decide which route to take. Obscenely huge or shredded to hell. I think for now I'll try to shed the body fat first then add quality lean beef later. I decided this about three days ago. I am sticking to a relatively low carb, high protien, medium fat diet. Yet I am on a ship for long hours so it's very difficult for me to get the quality solid protien I need. So I usually opt for two to three myoplexes per day along with whatever protien I can get from my other meals. The following is a list of the supplements I am currently takeing. on a daily basis. Any pointers or advice would be kindly taken.
  1. 3x3 capsules of Betalean. 3 prebreakfast, 3 prelunch, 3preworkout
  2. 5grams of Riboforce preworkout
  3. 5grams of effervescent creatine with one tablespoon of glutamine postworkout
  4. Two capsules of alpha lapoic acid post workout
  5. Methoxy-factor with each protien rich meal
  6. 2-3 myoplexes per day ( as between meal snacks and for post workout)
  7. mY other meals comes from whatever readily available protien source at hand.
    [/list=1] Well that about sums it up. As for my workouts, they are pretty intense and usually last no more than an hour. I tend to focus on one body part per day with plenty of rest before that body part gets worked again, except for my biceps which can take more frequent beatings. I'm not against throwing in a week or two where i try a push, pull, legs, split which works each body part twice a week. I'll update this site later with specific workout info. For Cardio I tend to swim alot ( I live on the beach) and also play a lot of basketball, sex burns quite a few of my excess calories also. Okay well I know that this is long but I wanted everyone to know my situation. I'm eagerly awaiting feedback of any kind.

Nice workout with a good pump, a little stronger than Thursday, but feel like the big gains will happen in about a week when my creatine kicks in. Diet was terrible today, but I had to be on the ship all day and night so could not do much about it.

  2. lunch- meatballs with marinara sauce
  3. 2:30- 1 KFC chicken breast
  4. 17:30- more meatballs and marinara sauce and two frankfurters(meat only0 & a handful of grapes
  5. preworkout- 5grams of riboforce Hp
  6. postworkout- 5grams of effervescent creatine
    [/list=1] That's it for today, can't update tomorrow because I'll be sailing the seven seas but will get back on Thursday. Hope to have some replies by then. Need feedback here.
 
Sorry haven't updated lately

Well I guess I'm only talking to myself here but will keep it up because I think that it does help me. Well It's sunday todayand I just took the last two days off. On Wednesday I worked chest and on thursday I worked back for the first time in months. I've been haveing nagging pains in my shoulder everytime I work back. But have been going to physical thereapy, and pain seems to be subsiding. Today I'll work biceps once again. Looking at this journal that seems to be all I work, but that's not true. I just seem to update this journal on those days. ****need to start takeing paper with me so that I can write down all my workouts and add them here later***** Ate like a pig this weekend, so I haven't really been sticking to a diet plan, but that stopsm now.
