Well my weight is holding pretty steady but I feel like I'm leaning out. Should I drop some cals or just leave it alone?

leave it alone...and up the cardio if you need to. imo :)

iron_worker 01-21-2009 08:50 AM

Ya thats probably a good point. I wonder if they've fixed the treadmill in my apartment yet.....

Good job keeping the intensity up for example the + 55lb dips(sweet). How much water are you drinking in a day while on this diet?

iron_worker 01-22-2009 10:27 AM

Pretty much 2 glasses of water per meal plus a few others. I dunno. Quite a bit.

Well I think I am dropping weight. Slowly. Looks like a little less than a pound per week which is fine by me. I'm lining up a body composition test to see where I'm at.

Wow, was not really expecting this result at all but I'l ltake it. Very happy with this. Finally one of my presses is over the 250lb mark. Hopefully it translates to flat bench when we go back.

Well I had a skin fold test done 2day. According to the results I'm 16% bf @188lb. This means I've gained a whopping 7lb lean muscle mass in a year.... wtf. Also my biceps have not changed in a year. I'm still at a massive 14.5". I know I'm doing pretty much strength training but I assumed the mass gains would be better than they have been. Slightly dissapointing to say the least.

Dont stress the size dub.Biceps are only good for pulling yourself with :)

Just imagine how easy size gains will come when your 1RMs are 300,400,500 on the big 3.Keep your eyes on the big picture.

Nothing wrong with toasting the bis every now and again tho just to keep up appearances.Nice Fucking press too mate.:)
