Hey everyone. This is just a short blurb, but I wanted to say that I just
[today 2/15/07] posted two new back pics… I havent taken any lat spread pics in a while, and was totally blown away by my progress… Anyway, checkum out let me know what you think. You can find them in my progress pics, and in the forum section.

I have decided to take time off from using creatine; I have done this for the past several months…because you are supposed to cycle off… and, well really because I have run out of funds. I was layed off of my job in December, and the market is rather slow–so people arent hiring. Anyway, since I have cycled off the CEE the gains have definately been slower, and that was somewhat depressing. But now really, I feel that since I have kept the gains that I got while I was on the Cell Mass,  I should be happy. Mainly I have been maintaining those gains since then. And will continue to do that untill later…As for diet I am still eating food high in protien and able to maintain my protien shakes…

Hey everyone, I have updated(finally) my progress pic area, and have added several new photos over the past couple of days… I just thought that I would post this so all of you guys could take a look and let me know what you all think…Comments and Critisism welcome

Okay so this is week two of this pattern of training. I have been continuing along very well over the past week, and I am starting to see some strength gains in my regular lifts…My 5×5 on the bench has gone up ten lbs; and that is before I would have normally done so…I am definately happy with this routine. It is one I will have to keep in my "pocket"

Another breakthrough, well a couple concidering that I haven’t posted in a while. I have been killing it in the weight room over the past few months, and really havent had the motivation to post on the blog…but that is besides the point, I now have some stuff worth posting about. FIRST: I am now maxing 315lbs on the bench and 500lbs for squats. That is awesome. Also, I just took a "pumped" measurement of my arms and they are hovering right around 17". Hovering meaning give or take an 8th of an inch…but anyway I am majorly stoked!!!!

Okay so heres the deal…I tried the workout, and it killed me. I definately wasnt expecting what it put me through. But thats all cool. No pain–no gain. I was feeling really pumped afterwards, and that was fantastic it was just the DOMF that killed me for the next two days. I am going to continue this routine and see what results I get.

I was reading in this months issue of Muscle and fitness about a lifiting technique that incorporates a work/pause method. This way you save yourself and then are able to do more reps with higher weight. In the article they calculate that with this lifting routine it is possible to lift 146%more weight than what was previously done.

The way that it is set up is that for lets say bench press you do 3 reps of you 5 rep max(RM) for 6 working sets. During the process you rest 16, 17, 18, 19 seconds in between (respectively) each set. This process alows you to do more reps with a heavier weight, and hopefully in turn making more strength and mass gains.

I am going to give this routine a try, and I will report back with results!!!

So, I have been hitting the 5×5 on the bench press pretty hardcore the last couple of weeks, and have seen serious results. I am now,today, going to try hitting a 5×5 at 250lbs. That’s 25 more pounds then what I was doing two weeks ago…and I feel great. It is so exciting to see the changes taking place, and see that I am atchieving results. Thats why I love Bodybuilding/weight lifting.

That’s all I got!

So the other day, after I was done working out, I proceeded to weigh myself. I was completely shocked to find that I weighed in at a solid 200lbs. Granted it has been awhile since I weighed myself. Cause the last weight I have on record was 185. Anyway, this was a suprise to me, why I don’t really know, But a suprise none the less.

You know those times when your are trying for something, and actually reach your goal, or get closer to your goal sooner than expected, and it totally blows you away. Well this could desctibe what I was feeling during that moment on the scale.

Although, I guess it could be said that I need to have more faith in what I am striving for and know that if I stay determined I will reach my goal. I guess it is time to set a knew one, since I have almost reached my goal in gaining mass…

That’s all I got
