1 Month Review
I’ve been a vegetarian for a month now and I and a lot to learn, I Really had no idea it was going to be this hard to pack on the muscle going vegetarian. In one month I’m up a solid 7lbs of lean mass. I was hoping to be up 10lbs but then again i learned a ton. I may have to supplement some leucine but we’ll see what Shane can do on the meal plan side of things.
Training for the month
I train heavy with high intensity for one week followed by one week of high volume training. I’ve been doing a lot of work with a focused eccentric contraction and an explosive concentric contraction and I love it. I like to preload the muscle with a short contraction followed by a controlled eccentric contraction followed by an explosive full rep. I feel like I could roast marshmellows over the burn. Next month I’m going to focus more on the stretched range of my rep and work in some of my preloaded reps on my first one or two sets.
My weekly split isn’t anything special, but here are the basics. Chest and Triceps, Back and Biceps, Legs, Shoulders, day off. I’ll give more info when the story gets published.
