Hey everyone. This will be my cutting journal for the 'Get shredded for summer, Nymjam style' MT Journal thing Been training regularly with weights for about 2 and half years now. Before that was just generally mucking about and keeping fit. Diet has always been hit and miss but I am trying Got my holiday to tunisia coming up on the 11th June so wanna be looking my best for that cos going with 18 friends, some of which are high level gymnasts and dammit I wont be outdone on the bod front lol! I have bigger legs for a start haha! I will be taking pics every week to monitor progress. Supplements Ephedrine - 2xday 25mg (8 weeks) Caffiene - 2xday 200mg (9 weeks) Jungle Warfare - 4xday (6 weeks) Mega dosing fish oil ED 5-6 cups of Green tea ED Whey PWO (obviously) Other Daily Supps - H&B Super One daily vitamin MP Krill Oil Liv-52 Training Trying something new so we'll see how I get on with it. Here's what I propose - Routine 1 Squat 10x10 Bench 10x10 Row 10x10 Calf Raises 2x15 Bicep Curls 3x8 Sit ups 2x15 Plank 2x30s Routine 2 Deadlift 10x10 Shoulder Press 10x10 WG Chins 10x10 Bent leg calf raises 2x15 Dips 3x8 Sit ups 2x15 Plank 2x30s Will alternate mon,wed,fri - 1,2,1, 2,1,2. Cardio, whatever I feel like on the day, interval or steady state. Diet Something along the lines of Wake - 30g whey Breakfast - 1 egg, 5 egg whites scrambled,3 or 4 slices of brown bread, Green tea. 10ml fish oil Mid morning - Tin mackeral, 1 wholemeal pitta, small mixed salad, piece of fruit.

looking lean alreay as you said, one constructive comment i would make is that if you brought your shoulders up abit you would have a good looking physic also dont do what i did and cut the cals to much too soon, do it slowly otherwise you will loose weight but not just fat and will just feel abit flat

Cheers mate. I know shoulders a bit of a weakness of mine. Hopefully they will get a bit more attention in this routine. Was doing bodyweight training for a long time and never did much isolation on shoulders until about a 8 months ago. TBH I probably havent cut the cals much to my usual diet but just having all my carbs before 6pm, upped my EFA's and cut out the crap. So hoping I dont get the flat feeling. We'll see.

hahaha Thanks! Been wanting to try some kind of GVT for a while. Its a bit downhearting if you enjoy the look of lifting big weights because I try and keep the same weight throughout the 10 sets before I put the weight up next session.

5-6 cups of Green tea ED oh jesus mary and joseph !! i tried and tried but green tea just kept on tasting like dishwater !! kudos !! the 10x10's are brutal,especially if you nail the KG to rep range , i enjoyed 20's ,personally i think powercleans are the best for higher rep stuff, BLOW LIKE A TRAIN !!!

Boar - lol its not a chore for me, i actually enjoy the taste of green tea! The plain one is ok but the ones flavoured with lemon or something similar I find really nice! And I can imagine vomiting doing high rep power cleans. Do you have to keep a bucket at the side just in case AJ - It will probably take a me a couple of weeks to get used to the volume but yeah im looking foward to it. Wont be starting JW for a couple of weeks yet, waiting for my friend to get back from holiday before I start that. Its on order though

Lightweight lol! Thanks mate, Starting eph next week and jungle warfare in 2 weeks so hoping they will prevent me from being to catabolic. Said earlier my total cal intake is probably the same as what it always has been, just better structured and less crap so if im lucky I might even add a wee bit of lean mass while im at it. One can only dream though

You have very good even development. I have quite a few weak points. lol sorry, forgot to put the weights up Deads 10x10 - 28kg (dumbbells) DB Shoulder Press 10x10 - 16kg WG Chins 10x10 - 3 sets BW and rest on the assisted chin machine. Bent leg calf raises 3x15 (leg press machine) - 110kg Dips 3x8 + 18kg Abs stuff Feels so downhearting only pressing 16's on the shoulder press , didnt have access to a bar which i why I was using DB's for the deads but will use about 85kg when using a bar. Max lifts are (1RM) Squat 140kg Dead 160kg Bench 100kg

We should probably get a room but ...........I'm jealous of your look so I guess we should swop ! I have lots of weak points imo and thats just my upper body I've always fancied trying GVT / 10x10 but I'm saving it for when I'm bulking, I've got to say it seems almost a shame to do it when your not feeding the body as I cant see you getting any growth for all that hard work. Hopefully you will prove me wrong
