Going Public!!!

[powerlifterjay]

Well i havent died!! PL jay is around!

Seriously though. My shoulder injury has sidelined me from the thing i love the most...benching. I dream of it, i am gonna heal. But until i see a pro on the situation , i am gonna do th ething i havent done for it, rest. My training now for chest is inclined and light. I am hopeing that this fixes it in a few months. I am glad i went out with a PR bench in a meet with 625lbs. If yoru gonna go out go out with a bang!!

What am i going public about. Well i am currently dieting down for two bodybuilding shows in the spring time! Thats right bodybuilding. Hell if i cannot powerlift right now, i gotta compete in something right? Save the flames!! I am gonna do good and am actually excited about it. But if things go to plan i will do the WPO in the fall. I think they will.

Here is my progress so far. IN Late AUG i was 263lbs. BF unknown. I dieted down to 242 lbs for my last meet on Sept 28th. But that Monday was 248, which was my normal walk around maintance free weight! I was 16.5% BF with water retenion. Dropped down to a 238lb weight at 15%bf and no water retenion in Mid to late Nov. I am heaviest at night of course, now i am 231 at 12% BF at night. Arms are bigger, legs same, and 4 inches less in my stomach. So diet is well.

I know this is a powerlifting board, but thought i would share my plans with ya'll....my online family's!! Later all.

Pljay, say it aint so! lol. Seriously though, time off from Powerlifting will let you heal up. It's says a lot about you that you have discipline to be able to powerlift and bodybuild. I tried the bodybuilding route, and got down to 240 then said fuck it, and ate my way back to 290s.

Keep us updated on your BB shows. Just dont forget you are a powerlifter! lol. Good luck bro and Merry Christmas

I have a feeling you will succeed at whatever you choose to do.

Thanks all!

I am 5'9 inches....and change but i leave that off!! It sounds like i have little man syndrom!

I will post pics. But i wanna get alot of before and afters first. I took my first pics Nov 10th at 245lbs. I will take my new ones jan. And then Feb starts the count down. I will take weekly shots then.

But there is a huge difference so far. I have learned so much about nutrition that i think if i had eating better when i was powerlifting i could be much stronger. I can gaurantee one thing, when i train for another meet i will always eat right from here on out.

I used to just eat about 3 ro 4 times a day. Never counted shit. I would be lucky to get maybe 150 grams (on a good day) of protein. I am now at 365 on monday and it goes up to 415 by Sat. All the while my carbs are at 225 on Monday and drop 25 a day till i carb back up on Sun. Fat is around 40g a day (flax seed oil).

I will hit 3 meets though in 2003. So i aint gone!! I might start hitting shows in the spring and meets in the fall and winter. Ya know broaden my horizons and try new shit! Might even hit a golf tourny too!!

Try Hemp oil instead of Flax,,,, better EFA ratio.
