Re: My journal and to start it off a stack of BEAST/KATANA

Ok bro here we go then,


I have been going through my hand writtin journals so that I can post my current workout. So here is the breakdown of what I logged the last 7 days.

Day-1 Legs

20min warm up and stretch

Leg Press- 140x20(warm up the knees),230x12, 320x10, 370x8

Squats- 135x15, 185x12, 225x10, 245x6 would like to see you switch to Squats and then Leg press. If you do leg press first that takes away from your squats. Squats will give you more benefit overall and require more strength. Then you polish with leg press. ON leg press when you do em, do not stop at the top or at the bottom. Make it one contimous movement, and nice and slow.:evil: Try it, you will hate it bro!

Deads- 135x15, 185x12, 225x10, 275x8 I think doing deads and squats on the same day is too taxing to your CNS bro.
I feel you would get more benefit doing deads on back or should day. Alternate these with your rack pulls below.

Leg Curls- 75x12, 85x10, 95x10 Bro you dont really need these. Your already hitting your hams in your squats. I would get rid of these and use that energy for recovery.

Calve raises- 90x20, 140x20, 170x20 Dam bro thats some work right there! Would like to see a pic of your calves bro!


Legs are pretty much jello by this point so no cardio just a 15min cool down on the treadmill and 20min stretching

Day-2 Shoulders(focusing mostly on the side delts) and biceps

DB shoulder press- 40x15, 45x12, 50x12

BB behind the neck presses- 45x10, 55x10, 60x10 (I just started doing these again so Ive been working on form B4 I get the lbs. up Ive had shoulder injuries in the past) Bro if you had shoulder issues in the past do theses in front, behind the neck is not good for damaged shoulders.

Cable Lateral raises- I do these pretty light and do 8 second static holds at the top of every rep with the cables- 10x10, 15x10, 20x10 (I get a good pump from these thanks Nelson)

Barbell Curls- 65x10, 75x10, 80x8, 90x6

alternating DB curls on incline- 25x15, 30x12, 35x10, 40x8

concentration curls- 25xfail, 30xfail, 35xfail (rest one arm while other works final pumps)
Too much curls bro. Nix one of them. Remember that you are getting bi stimulation when you do your rows too. Also I would lower your reps to not more then 8-10 and sets to 2.

Day-3 No weight training just cardio

60min Spin bike in AM and I usually ride mountain bike in the PM

Day-4 Back and traps

wide grip pulldowns- 80x15, 100x12, 120x10 warm up sets

wide grip pull ups- 3 sets to failure usually around 6

Bent over BB rows- 95x10, 115x10, 135x10

Rack pulls from just above the knees- 135x10, 225x10, 315x8, 365x6 I would do 3 sets of 5 on this bro and as heave as you possibly can. On rack pulls you want max load for back and shoulder growth. These also stimulate TEST/GH release.

One arm dumbbell rows- 50x10, 60x10, 70x8

seated DB shrugs- 65x10, 75x10, 85x10 Bro, google Power Rows. Then try them in place of these. I think you gonna like them a lot!

Day-5 Chest and Triceps

Flat DB press- 40x15, 55x12, 65x12, 75x10 I would loose these and put the energy into BBL bench.

Dips- bodyweight to failure 3 sets (getting around 8 each time) Start adding weight via a dip belt bro. you are ready. Do these after bench or they will rob your bench press.

Flat Bench- 135x8, 185x8, 205x8

Incline DB press- 45x10, 55x10, 60x8 I would go BBL and add weight bro.
For now on your bench presses.Go BBL bro. Then after you get big and strong work in the Dbls.

Cable cross overs- 25x15, 30x15 I would loose these. Use this strength on bench.

V-bar pushdowns- 40x12, 50x12, 60x10

skulls- 40x10, 50x10, 50x10

DB overhead tri extension- 40x10, 45x10, 50x10

Overhead rope extensions-40x12, 45x12, 50x10
Drop any 2 of these bro. You use way too much energy on your tries and bies. You are getting tri stimulation in all of you pressing movements bro.

Day-6 Rest

Day-7 cardio and abs

That was pretty much my last full week. I move pretty quickly no more than 1 minute rest between sets. Keeps my heart rate up and the blood pumping!:evil: Luckily I live next to a huge park right next to the river with mountain bike trails running all through it. So I do a lot of ridin since I am still not working full time I have plenty of time. plus it keeps me from doing to much boring ass cardio in the gym:biggrin:

TBC...................:evil:

Ok bro would like to see you re-write you workout if you like what I said. I think you will get more gains this way. And without all of that additional bi and tri work I think you will get better recovery there and to me that means more growth.
Good luck and best regards.:evil:

Let me know what you think? I appreciate the help Ive been really needing a second opinion. The last few weeks Ive been kinda all over the place trying new things trying to get a routine dialed in so I can stick to it for awhile. especially since the leg is 100% nothing really holding me back from taking this serious again. Looking forward to hearing back from you.

This is good on legs bro!


Day-2 Shoulders and biceps

DB shoulder press- 3x10-12

BB shoulder press- 3x10-12 3x5-8. Your shoulder gonna be pretty tired from the BBL press.

Cable Lateral raises- 3x10-12

Barbell Curls- 3x8-10 3x5-8

alternating DB curls on incline- 3x8-10 3x5-8
Less is more here bro. Use heavier weights less reps grow bigger!


Day-3 No weight training just cardio

60min Spin bike in AM and I usually ride mountain bike in the PM


Day-4 Back and traps

wide grip pulldowns- 3x10-12

Correct broly!!:D

One arm dumbbell rows- 3x8-10 3x5-8
You are hitting this twice so 8 reps max.

Power Rows- 3x6-10 (I like these Ive done them B4. do you think they are better than power shrugs?) Sorry bro I ment Power Shrugs. 3x5=8 remember this is using max weights and you get stimulation here from dead lifts too.

Day-5 Chest and Triceps

Flat DB fly's- 2x10-12 (lightweight I need something to warm up my shoulders unless you have another suggestion) ok

Flat Bench- 3x8-10

Dips- bodyweight to failure 3 sets (never tried to add weight on these B4 but I will give it a try) good, then you will start to see the results bro. Vertical hits shoulders. Head down on chest and legs forward hits chest. So alternate them.:D

Incline Bench- 3x8-10

skullcrushers- 3x8-10 3x5-8

DB overhead tri extension- 3x10 3x5-8
You hit these in your presses too so we wanna cut the reps back a bit here.

Nice job. Just a few little tweaks and your good to go bro! Run this 10-12 weeks and then consider 5x5!

Sweet bro I appreciate you taking the time. I think I can handle that I gotta keep telling myself less is more. lol Next up I am going to tackle diet and supps and get that all dialed in.
 
Re: My journal and to start it off a stack of BEAST/KATANA

Good work bro. KTS!!
EXACTLY!! for most peeps Less Is More
Unless a person were obese to begine with.
 
Re: My journal and to start it off a stack of BEAST/KATANA

So I started the new routine off with legs today. Thanks again Zed for helping me get this dialed in I think its gonna be the way to go :biggrin:

So I started the day off with a 15min warm up on the the treadmill and about 10 to 15 min on the speed bag and jump rope. Felt pretty good so I headed to the squat rack! :evil:

Squats-135x12, 185x12, 205x10, 225x10
Leg Press-180x12, 260x12, 310x10, 360x10 (Not counting sled weight)

I was feeling it on that last set but was pretty stoked that I got a couple more than last week :biggrin:

I kept everything slow and controlled. strict from

After that off to calves

I did these on a donkey calve raise style machine with pullies so dont know how accurate the weight is I know its different then the seated raise.

140x20, 180x20, 220x15

Very pleased with today :biggrin: Tomorrow shoulders and biceps can not wait

Still working on diet this is the first time that I have really broke down everything I ate in detail so it is taking a minute. I am using Fitday to help log so I am in the process of setting it up. I will post a soon as I think I have a good game plan.

Also today I just started a little stack with Anabeta, Alpha t-2, and Oxyelite to try to get the rest of this lingering fat around my waist but still keep the muscle and the strength climbing :evil: we will see how it goes. Tomorrow I will get more detailed :chomp: Time to Crash!

Re: My journal and to start it off a stack of BEAST/KATANA

Does anyone know if there is a way to change the title of this thread to just My Journal since I am not currently using beast or katana. Anyway if you can help me out I would appreciate it.
 
Re: My journal and to start it off a stack of BEAST/KATANA

Very nice write up bro!
Dont forget on your legpress. The entire set should be one steady continous motion. No stop at the top or at the bottom. Picture a pisten driven by a crankshaft. No need to lock out at the top.
 
Re: My journal and to start it off a stack of BEAST/KATANA

So here we are at Day-2 of the new routine and my Anabeta stack but more about the stack later. Lets start this off with the work, Shoulders and Biceps today. I got to the gym around 7 this morning which is perfect time because no one is there. Maybe 5 or 6 people in the free weight area. So I jumped on a treadmill and started my day with a 20 min. warm up then off to the DB area and got this day started..

DB press-40x10, 45x10, 50x10-nice little warm up

BBL press-95x8, 105x6, 125x6-I did these standing military style :D pretty strict form except for the last couple at 125

Side Laterals-10x10, 15x10, 20x8-by this time my shoulders where on fire :biggrin:

BBL curls-70x8, 80x8, 90x8-always get a good pump from these

Alt. DB curls-35x8, 40x8, 45x6- slow and steady barely got the last one :evil:

I finished up with a half hour on the spin bike and headed home. Another good day at the gym.



Very nice write up bro!

Thanks Bro! I'm pickin up what your thowin down :biggrin: The first 2 sets where perfect the 2 over 300 I paused on the last couple reps. Should I drop weight till I can get all 10 smooth?

So all in all a good day! I feel like a sponge right now so any input would be greatly appreciated. I am gonna post diet and supps within the next hour.

Re: My journal and to start it off a stack of BEAST/KATANA

Ok, before I post my diet I wanted to start off by stating what my goals are. I want to take the next two months and prep for my next cycle. Goal #

1-Get a routine dialed in that will give me the most bang for my buck! Which with the help of Zedhed I am close to that goal.:biggrin:

2-Get my diet broke down so I know exactly what my intake is of cals, carbs, protein, and fat. I have set up a food journal at fitday and I have figured out my BMR. Which alot higher than I thought so I get to eat more :chomp: Up to this point I just cut out all the fast food. Started cooking all my own food and quit eating junk food. I have lost 50 lbs. since I started rehab on my leg.

3-Get my next cycle in stone so I can collect everything I need for the cycle and pct. After some extensive research over the last year or so I have decided that a low dose test and eg cycle. Or a test base with an oral like beast or katana instead of an oral only cycle. I'll get more into that after I get my diet down.

4-Take the proper supps to not only prep for the cycle but also continue making gains and dropping a little more body fat.

now that I got that out of the way, next up The Diet :chomp:
