do you guys have the same new year we do?

Friday Jan 2nd/2009

First workout of the new year. Pretty cool.

Weight: 190.2lb

DE Incline Bench
-bar x 8
-95lb x 5
-105lb 8x2

I estimated my max to be somewhere in the 205 range but I'm not really sure.

Dips
bw x 10
bw + 10lb x 10
bw + 20lb x 10
bw + 25lb x 10
bw + 35lb x 9

Haven't done dips in quite a while so the shoulders took a few reps to get back into it. Flexibility is still a bit of an issue here but it seemed to come back a bit as I got used to it again.

HS Narrow Grip Row (hammer grip)
35plates x 10
45s + 10s x 10
2 45s each side 4x10

I've never done a really narrow row like this before and it absolutely hammered my back. I'm very sore today (I'm writing this the next day) in between the scapula. Its a good sore though. :WEIGHT~13:

Back into ME work for the next 2 workouts. I decided to start in with the DE workouts to "ease in" after the holidays. I'm glad I did because I'm sore anyways. lol

Goodluck with the new diet in the new year.

Tough workout today but good. Next workout I do will be the first one on my TCD.

IW

None yet. I'm starting tomorrow.

I put the morning meal, lunch, and afternoon meal the same because I want it to be easy to make meals for work.

Its based off 60% Fat 33% protein and 7% carbs (by calories). The reason I chose such a high fat level was otherwise the protein levels had to huge to make up for the calories.

Any suggestions? I also have to work out the gym day meal plan but it will the same until the last meal because that is after the gym.

I've decided the workout day meal plan will be the same as the non workout day but the night meal will be switched PWO shake with carbs. 80g carbs and 35g protein. Should I have something after this as well? The PWO shake will be around 7:30 I'm guessing.

Well good luck with the diet man. Do you have a specific goal in mind... or just jacked and tanned.

What time of day do you lift?

My goal is to just slowly trim up while at least maintaining strength...if not still making gains. Hopefully to be pretty trim by summer time.

I workout out in the evening. We usually start at around 7pm and finish in about an hour.
