What happened 4 weeks later? Oh. How tall are ya broham?
5'9"
Nice job AZNFRK.
What has your diet and training been like?
while clean bulking, I had 6,400 calories a day split into 8 meals per day. the macro ratio was close to this: 35% carbs, 50% protein, and 15% fat.
yep, that's about 800 grams of protein a day I'm putting in. I hold water easily from carbs but I also release water quickly when carbs start to drop out.
training while bulking was just 5 days a week...mon: legs, tues: chest, wed: bis, thur: back, fri: shoulder and tris...as heavy as possible...
while cutting I will drop down to 5,000 calories and then lower it every so many weeks...no macro ratio, extreme amount of protein with 4 meals that contain carbs then slowly dropping carb meals out as I get closer to comp day. I will also do cardio if I feel that I'm not on schedule.
I actually train harder when cutting, I would train 7 days a week....
MONmon: legs, TUES: chest, drop sets of shoulders for each head, WED: bis, THUR:legs(slow concentration workout so I go slow and light, go for the pump), back, FRI: shoulder and tris, SAT: bis and chest (concentration workouts), SUN: back and tris (concentration workout)....so, for every body part I get a heavy day and then a day for maximum pump....
that's pretty much how I maintain the most amount of muscle mass while cutting, extreme amounts of protein (800 grams or over with only trace fats from the meats) and working out harder then when I was bulking...
to tenny, thanks I remember you...pretty sure you were a bit taller than me...18lbs might be nearly impossible in most people's point of view but it's my goal...I want to have shock value...I've ate myself sick at least 3 times while bulking...I had the shits for a week straight cause I got a stomach bug and still wouldn't back down from eating even when I knew that when I finished that last bite that I would be on the toilet, 8 times a day. Some would say that I should have just back off to let my stomach settle but in my mind I wanted to know I didn't falter for a sec. I knew walking into it was going to be a really competitive show but I go to win. Judges said if I had another 10lbs on me I would fair much better. I vowed to gained the maximum amount of muscle I could from june to nov. I looked at my comp pictures and was embarrassed at what I brought to the stage so here I am revamping this physique to best that I can up to this point and will come into this show WAY BETTER than the last. I want them to look at me and say, "What the hell did the kid do in his offseason?" I liked the atlantic states, it was my first show and felt I proved that I could come in conditioned...now it's time to put the mass on to match my conditioning....
