Tuesday 3rd May
I've now added another whey shake to my diet first thing in the morning, i'm doing it with Milk, tho it should probably be with water...................
Squats - 5 @ 40k, 5 @ 50k, 5 @ 60k - now doing these on the squat rack rather than the smith machine
Stiff Legged Dead's - 5,5,5 @ 50k
Calf Riase - 5,5 @ 240lbs and 5 @ 260lbs
Military DB Press - 5,5 @ 18k , 5 @ 16k (each Arm)
Clean and Press - 5 @ 20k, 5 @ 30k, 5 @ 25k - Found these really hard today - haveing a weak shoulder day, as i didn't find i could lift as much on Military Press either.
Side Laterals - 5 @ 8k (each), 5,5 @ 10k
This routine is definitely working, feeling better about the whole synnergy of it so far.

Thursday's workout.
DB Bench Press - 6 @ 24k (each), 6,6 @ 26k
Wide Dips - 5 @ BW, 5 & 6 @ BW + 10k
Flyes - 5 @ 14k, 5 & 5 @ 16k (each)
Tricep Pushdown - 5 @ 75k, 5 @ 82.5, 5 @ 82.5, 25 @ 35k
Skull Crushers/French press - 6 @ 45k, 5 @ 55k, 20 @ 30k
I felt i could do 90k with the tricep pushdowns, but couldn't get my balance right, i weigh less than 90k so maybe thats why?
All in all a good workout. My gym buddy is hard work tho - he's so negative about the gym and has a face like a slapped arse for the entire workout, really demotivatin at times, gotta sort him out! 
Weight still hasn't changed, though i'm gonna try to step up my eating a bit, see if that helps.............

Monday's workout.
Dead's 5 @ 80k, 5 @ 90k & 5 @ 80k
Pullups 5,5,5 @ BW
Close grip pulley row 5 @ 82.5k, 5 @ 90k, 5 @ 90k
Chinups 5,5,5 @ BW
Preacher Curls 5@ 20k, 5 @ 23k, 5 @ 23k!
Had a twinge in my back doing the 90k deads and it still feels a little twisted this morning. Gonna have to be careful!!
This workout should have been done at the weekend, but my gym buddy didn't get time, and asked me to wait too, should have said no. Also went at 2030, which is too late for me really - i was yawning all the way round.........

Wednesday - Legs/Shoulders
Squats 5,5 @ 60k & 5 @ 70k
Stiff legged Deadlifts 5,5 & 5 @ 50k
Calf raise 5 @ 220lbs, 5 & 5 @ 240lbs
Military DB press 5,5,5 @ 16k Each - Felt i could have gone to 18's for these today but they were ebing used for ages!
Clean and Press 5 @ 25k, 5 & 5 @ 30k
Side Lat Raises 5,5,5 @ 10k - time to progress and try 11 or 12's i think....
All in all a good workout, and i'm starting to see a very slight difference in body shape, we'll see if thas the workout or the weather!
I'm reading more and more about people juicing on MT but worry about the side effects and stuff, there are so many threads with horrible abcesses and boils, gyno - whatever that is! and people ending up having operations....... think i'll stay as i am and see what i can do naturally for now.

Gald its going well for you mate!
I see your lifting well with 5 reps at the moment, if 5 feels easy then make a note in your training diary or mentaly (whatever you use) and next time try for 3 x 6 reps.
You may only get 6,6,4 but soon you will get your 3x6 then you move on to 7 reps, when you can do 8 or 9 then add a bit of weight.
Nice work so far!!

Legs workout - Tuesday
Squats - 5 @ 60k, 5 & 5 @ 70k
Stiff Legged Dead's - 5 @ 60k - 5 & 5 @ 70k
Calf Raises - 5,5,5 @ 220lb's
(standing) Military DB press - 5,5,5 @ 14k each - tried these standing rather than seated, as they;re supposed to be better for your core muscle's and harder to do.......certainly found i couldn't lift as much.
Clean and press - 5,5,5 @ 30k
Lateral Raises - 5,5,5 @ 10k
Very lethargic today - was a real effort to complete everything.................but we go for a reason.

i know - last time i checked on that was months ago and i was 11% - which is much more likely. i only have a small layer over my abs, you can see them, just not very defined. i'm not too fussed about losing it til i'm a bit bigger.
Hows the cut going mate?

I've had a week off, its was my 22nd birthday and my mates had planned my week, all a suprise. i thought it best to take a week off as i wasn't sure if i'd be out all week drinking and binging. Turns out it wasn't too bad.
Chest and Triceps today:
Incline DB Press - 6,6,6 @ 26k
Dips - 6,6,6 @ BW +10k
Incline Flyes - 6,6,6 @ 16k
Triceps Pushdown - 6,6,6 @ 82.5k
Felt quite shattered half way through the workout, so i wasn't as intense as i'd have liked, but thats probably good, ease my muscles back into it, til next week anyway!
