OK... I've changed things up a bit, any comments are welcome. I'll be keeping a journal in here. Mostly thoughts and such, but I'll keep any routine changes, milestones, etc..

I'm currently cutting, while trying to maintain muscle. I have about 15% more BF to loose. I'm doing cardio T/Th/Sat.

I'm going for failure on every set. Once I can hit 8 reps, I move up the weight. I plan to fail somwhere between 5-8 reps.

GOALS: To bench my body weight, and to complet 8 rep sets of Dips. To complete 8 rep set of chins. Loose 15-17% BF.

DIET: 2100-2300 Calories, 40% protein, 40% carbs, 20% fat.

DB Incline Press - 8/50, 6/50
Flatt Flys - 6/30, 4/30
Dips - 3 reps

Cardio today. Did my usual routine, but cranked up the grade on the treadmil to 1.5%.

[devhuman]

Legs, Shoulders today
Squats - 8@155, 8@185
Leg Extensions - 8@150, 8@170
SLDL - 8@110, 8@130
Leg Curls 8@110, 5@110
Calf Raises 8@240, 8@255

Military Press 8@95, 8@105
Crossbody cable 8@20, 8@30

I'm still "finding my weight". I'll start heavier next week on anything that I finished all 8 reps on. The new routine feels good. I'm going to be sore tomorrow. Deadlifts were great!

Today (Thursday) was supposed to be cardio, but I think I'm going to have to change that. Yesterday was leg day and my hams are killing me. I think running would "over do" it a bit.

I still want to get 3 days of cardio in, though. I guess I'll have to double up two days somewhere.

WideGrip Pulldowns - 8/100, 8/110
