cheers jon really appreciate that mate!

i mean its good to know ive proven myself wrong in terms of 'cant gain weight' etc but to know its helped motivate others really is a bonus!

best of luck jon!

Good luck with everything, Dave. It is tricky getting the balance right. I know I felt quite guilty (as well as knackered) when my marathon training called for 3 hour runs.

cheers mark mate

just thought id update you all

hit the gym today, chest, was a very good session

i didnt bring my weight log book with me i just went in and lifted what i could, spotted a few guys which i dont normally do as im too much into my 'schedule'

came out of the gym with a huge pump as instead of going for set reps i worked some till failure, i realize it may not be in compliance with 'this many reps for maximum growth' rule, but im not too bothered now, i lifted heavy felt great and even got a personal best

wow this was all the way back on page four

thought id just update, lifts have gone really good

ive dropped a little body fat as my bulking diet did fall apart with things lately, but ive kept the muscle so definition is at its best at the moment

average lifts are now

deads - 140
squats - 90 (took these back as i wanted to get ass to grass, feels alot better doing them low)
bench - 80/85 (still hovering around the 80 lol)
mil press - 50/60
incline DB press - now using 35kg DB's so chuffed with that, couldnt get them up my body before

cellaratt · 12-09-2008, 12:14 AM

I thought you were suppose to lose the fat in the summer and gain it in the winter..?

colt24 · 12-09-2008, 12:57 AM

140 deads :E my oh my, how many reps?

bulkaholic · 12-09-2008, 01:14 AM

Dave good to see you back mate

Nice on the 35kg DB that is a decent lift mate.

Glad things are going ok for you. whats it like to have balance in your life? I ask as with this comp prep I am eating sleeping and indeed dreaming it at present. I can't believe you have let your bulking diet slip when I am on the verge of carbless insanity

Jonferimonic · 12-09-2008, 10:56 AM

Hello Sirdaveyk, im blown away by your deadlifts! My heaviest set of them is 87kg (on the 4th set) and i can squeeze 10 out, but i usually have to push my eyeballs back into my head afterwards

. DB press i do inclined but 26kg is my limit, 35 and i would need a pretty assistant on each side to put them in my hands. You monster, i bet you could eat a whole welsh lamb in one sitting.
Anyways, i wondered are your military, bench and squats done free or using a smith machine at all? My gym doesnt have any decent equipment just lots of machines and a DB shelf so i utterly crave a bench and squat rack.
Also, can i hassle you for your typical bulking plan. I want to compare it with what im doing.
Thanks!

Mrdaveyk · 12-09-2008, 05:47 PM

cheers for the feedback guys

hehe yeh i know, i was planning on adding some more fat over windter months to save on clothing as im currently skint, but the new job thing is taking over eating at the moment, im making it sound worse than it is, its nothing to worry about im still getting a good balance

my deads for 140 on a good day ill get out 10 but im choking on the 10th rep, also on my brink on brown back

glad your still going for the comp colin mate, im learning welding and a few electronics at the moment and have become quite fascinated lol, so im finding myself either welding or in the machine shop longer than intended so time for food is a little less, but im still carbed up so i dont feel crappy or anything, goiod luck for october buddy!

jon mate all my lifts are free weights and as for eating a lamb, you are pretty much right, my metabolism is a killer to please

had a full english the other day (

) and had a belly buster as it was called..... was still hungry

as for the bulking plan ill see if i can dig it up its on this journal somewhere

Mrdaveyk · 12-09-2008, 05:48 PM

1 - shake, oats and a banana
2 - tuna sarnie with mayo, banana and some milk
3 - chicken and some new potatoes
4 - shake and two bananas (pre workout)
5 - post workout shake (its a beast ill give you a link if you want it, 1000 cals, 200carbs its lush)
6 - meal of the day, usually more potatoes and some sort of meat veg (i dont argue over this meal i just influence what the mother cooks, she likes to help my diet so this is her meal, will be like this until i move out lol)
7 - seeds and nuts the rest of the night and more milk
