The entire world is counting on me, and they don't even know it.

[Wu36]

Time for another attempt at a journal? sounds good.
Background- Training for Grappler's Quest on May 22nd, need to cut to 179 which is nessecary for bf purposes as well. Following a carb cycling diet outlined here. (http://www.avantlabs.com/magmain.php?issueID=15&pageID=159)
Weights 4-5x a week, with occasional HIIT and BJJ 3-4x a week. Might add a few days of wrestling if I can find a suitable club.
The only thing constant about my diet/training recently is BJJ, gym membership expired and im not renewing it but my school weightroom is open everyday now so it shouldnt be a problem.
Stats:
Height- 5'9
Weight- 193.0 (14 off)
chest/waist/thighs/arms etc- no idea, dont really care
bf- senior year partying has brought me back to 15-16 range (which is probably my setpoint) buying some calipers soon.

Lifts:
Bench- haven't attempted one in a year, expect a low number.
Squat- we'll see monday
Dead- pulled 335 for no real reason on wednesday, max probably ~365
Cardio- Needs improvement.

I'll figure out a format and make my first entry tonight.

Note: due to me getting my ass handed to me at my last tournament, mainly because i shouldve been 1 or 2 weight classes lower, everything will be as detailed as possible, id appreciate flames if i mess something up </run-on sentence>

-Wu.

[PizDoff]

*Pulls guard*

[rookiebldr]

Dieting is oh so much fun, I hates it, however, best of luck with your carb cycling and the diet. :)

[galileo]

It's like bringing a knife to a gun fight.

[Wu36]

Weekend update 4/03- 4/04
No carb day saturday
Low carb sunday
No training except for a completely random set of squats.

... Saw Gothika and was thoroughly pissed off for an hour or so afterwards.
I find it hard to believe that a movie could have; a decent setting (mental institution), a good premise (girl goes crazy, kills her husband), Halle Berry, Penelope Cruz, and Halle Berry and Penelope Cruz in a shower together and still suck so much.

Waiting on some sesathin and leptigen from avant.

[Wu36]

PizDoff: *pulls guard on multiple armed attackers*
Rookie: Thanks. as much as dieting sucks, its better than being a fat mess.
Gal: Since you're good w/ this stuff, can you reccomend any songs from their first album , before the name change and everything?

[Wu36]

Quick update:
Ate over maintenance slightly on wednesday and by about 500 cals yesterday.
Starting the avant products today and increasing my deficit a good deal.
Had a mediocre DE bench workout due to lifting alone.

[Wu36]

I've been sick since easter, wont post a full update until im better.
Sick on senior spring break... aint that some ****.

[Wu36]

no longer sick, squats tomorrow.

[Wu36]

going to a doctor to see if i have a sleep disorder.

[Saint Patrick]

Nice work on those Box squats, Wu.

[Wu36]

4/21/04
No Carb Day

Diet:
1: 2 scoops vanilla nitrean in water, 2 FOC
2: ~6oz Chicken Breast, 2 FOC
3: Chicken hot dog (8p,3f)
4: ~6oz chicken breast, ~.75oz mozzarella cheese, 1oz low carb whole grain bread
5: the chicken i'm about to eat, ~4 oz. 2 FOC
Totals:1144
Fat: 34 305 28%
Sat: 9 82 8%
Poly: 3 28 3%
Mono: 7 64 6%
Carbs: 11 34 3%
Fiber: 2 0 0%
Protein: 188 752 69%

Training
2.5 hours sub wrestling/BJJ

Pharmies: 3 servings sesathin, 2 servings leptigen rebirth, 1000mg vitamin c, 1 multi.

Other: 18 days of high school left, the senioritis i contracted freshman year will probably set in hard. Despite being sick and incredibly somnolent I moved around fairly well in BJJ.
In more important news, the teen heavyweight cutoff is 169 not 179 as i previously thought. Therefore I am cutting for purely aesthetic purposes since 169 in a month is not a good idea.

Weight(despite ****ty diet, and one* party over spring break): 191.2

*someone clearly hexed me, I'm never sick for a full week.

[Wu36]

Patty: Thank you sir.


Bench tomorrow, anyone reading should get a healthy self esteem boost.

[Wu36]

well, updates (and unfortunately training) have been sporadic.

Today
Diet
3 Egg whites, 1 egg
1.5oz low carb bread (really just holds the sandwich together)
5oz turkey, 1tbsp mayo
6 oz chicken breast
3tbsp natty pb
2 scoops nitrean, 8oz apple juice (no idea why this is here)
Totals: no idea.

Training
BJJ- 2.5 hours
Squats, 3x275x5 felt terrible, I wasnt even making parallell. If anything its reason to be more consistent and make sure my form hasnt slipped.
I was thoroughly pissed off at this point and squatted up from 135-285 w/ the other kids squatting. tried to go extra deep but was probably just breaking parallell if that on the higher weights.
Other: I was sufficiently depleted today, and had 3 hrs of (bad) sleep, this may have been a factor.

[rookiebldr]

Yes, sleep tends to help. ;)

[Wu36]

I've got work to do so quick update.

Weight room was closed when i got out of school, waited til i had to go. As a result of this i had to use my stepdad's bowflex (i haet that damn thing). so...
Seated ghey bowflex rows: all of those annoying rods x 85 total reps
Bunch of pushups, wide and narrow.

High carb day
Protien, a significant amount
Fat, mostly fish oil
Carbs, a lot.

Pharmies
the usual.

brevity is my friend.

[Wu36]

Rookie: sleep... is that the thing that involves me staring at my ceiling for hours on end and eventually playing fight night 2004 til my body stops functioning?

[Wu36]

just letting everyone know i'm not dead, 6 days left of high school been kinda busy.

[Chubrock]

Oh yes! Somebody else on this board besides me listens to Norma Jean. I hang out with a couple of guys that know everything about the band. I'll try and get you a list of some good songs, back when Norma Jean was Lutacris. If I could recommend some other groups you may want to take a look at, UnderOath, Emory, Showbread, Brand New. All of these groups make some awesome music. Good luck with your goals by the way.

[Wu36]

1 final tomorrow, upon completion high school = pwned.

[Wu36]

Still alive, still dieting somewhat. My school weightroom closing = teh suck. I need the gym situation sorted out by monday.

[Wu36]

Final bs update before workouts start showing up again. Got a makeshift home gym goin now w/ the help of some friends and I officially graduate this sunday. Expect to see real updates by monday.

[Wu36]
