The Omega Project Log

[Rebecca D]

First I would like to thank Omega for giving me the opportunity try his program. I've been working out for awhile, but I have been in a rut of doing the same old workout and just going through the motions lately. My gains have also stalled the past year.

My goals for this workout are to add strength and some quality lean muscle. I haven't added much strength or size since August of 2009.

This thread is going to be updates about the workout and my progress. I also have a partner in crime (Sara) who is also participating and will chime in with her progress as well.

First day: WOW. My legs were shaking half way through the workout. I am focusing on slow controlled reps. After five sets of leg presses and five sets of smith squats I realized I tried to do too much weight. I had actually decreased the weight in anticipation, but not enough. My heavy set of Leg Prsses is usually 360lbs plus the sled for 12 reps, but I only got 6 and it hurt...I was suppose to do 7-9 reps which I thought would be easy. I can honestly say I haven't had a leg workout this intense in at least a year.

First of all I'm stoked for you.

Secondly, sounds real similar to the volume workout I started two weeks ago. Is the goal to increase weight each set and what's the rest interval?

Is Sara our Sara_XO and are you ladies real life training partners or do we mean just both following the same program?

 

[OMEGA]

RW you are totally welcome if you ever want to do it

Rest is about 45 seconds between sets, and 2-3 mins between exercises

Yes its our SaraXO hopefully she can hop in , in time

Hey everyone,
Sorry I don't really go online during the weekends as it's my time to get all my errands done due to working 8-6 during the week days.

Thank you to OMEGA for allowing me the opportunity as well to have a change to experience some new physique changes. Currently it's 3:15am, yes, and I do work at 8:00am but I am having a hard time convincing my body it should be sleeping right now.

Anyways, Today (Monday September 27th) is the first start day for me. LETS DO THIS!

 

[OMEGA]

8-6 woah! glad to have you on board we will do great things

You ladies will be very pleased with how your body changes if you give it your all. I have worked with Omega a few times with great success.
