UPDATE
there may (or may not, not sure yet) be a change to my routine soon...
Needto has agreed to sponsor me for the EF body transformation contest!... i have never done 'bodybuilding' before, but i find this a great opportunity to make myself known in the industry and further my other goals such as opening a gym, personal training and even possibly eventual sponsorship for my powerlifting... i eat like an asshole, and i can still get abs fairly easy, so i know i have it in me to do this... im not sure if he is going to have me change my routine or not... hopefull just add some vanity lifts like curls and calt raises... but i just thought i would throw this out there so if he has me do anything different im not pussying out on the smolov...

Aha I knew it! I knew there would be some excuse to get out of the smolov. Ususally it's something like: "My goals are changing I dont really care about my squat that much." But this is a clever excuse.

well, he hasnt told me i cant continue it yet... but you have to understand his sponsorship pays my way, including supplementation, which is already a lot... but i have a good chance at winning $3500 plus prizes... its just not somthing i can pass up... plus it is a step in becoming 'known' in the industry...
hopefully he lets me finish up the smolov at least... it is only 8 more weeks, and i dont think it would hurt... i will still be maxing out this friday night... i will warm-up and my 'opener' will be 405...

wendsday... 1/5/11
deadlifts
warmup 5x135, 5x225, 3x315, 2x405, 1x455
goal 1x2x490 FAILED...
result 1x1x490... broke floor on second rep strong, but just stalled at the knees... grip wasnt the issue though...

speed deads
5x3x410 decent bar speed

walking barbell lunges
10x135, 8x185, 4x225
db rows
2x5x100
1x5x120 used straps
db pullovers
5x100, 5x105, 2x110
preacher curl

not sure what to think about the missed rep... the next workout includes power shrugs, and increased volume, but less weight... i think i will just continue with the program and see what happens by week 10... if i dont hit my goal of 545, hopefully i can at least get some kind of PR...
cant wait to test my max squat friday night!...

I was looking at that transformation contest, looks cool but pricey lol... Should give some good motivation though...

Which way are you going to go? Bulk up and get bigger or cut down and get super lean? Or try to do both?
