Well I've been lurking on here for ages and @Hilly (who looks after my training/diet) said I should get one up in here so thought why not :)

Been training now for about 3.5 years, last 2 years much more seriously and really putting extra emphasis on nutrition and quality of training!

Stats:

Weight on waking: 208lbs
Height: 5'10
I've attached a pic of current condition as of 2 weeks ago!

Goals:

Current goal is to put on as much lean mass as possible up until Jan/Feb time where I shall start dieting for the UKBFF North West Show in Warrington. (3rd of May). Working on overall thickness, calves and hams especially. Going to be doing the first timers class.

Training:
Current split as set for me is the following on a 3 days on 1 day off basis:

Heavy Chest/Pump Back
Heavy Arms/Pump Shoulders
Heavy Quads/Pump Hamstrings
Heavy Back/Pump Chest
Heavy Shoulders/Pump Arms
Heavy Hamstrings/Pump Quads

With abs and calves trained every other session respectively!

Cardio x2 of HIIT on spin bike a week.

Won't be listing reps/sets as I have paid for my current set up but will be as detailed as possible

Diet:
Current macros are

P - 287g
C - 438g
F - 80g

Protein sources are chicken, eggs, whey iso and beef.

Carb sources are pretty much just rice, rice flour and potatoes as these digest easiest for me.

Fats are from coconut oil, eggs & almond butter

Cheats meal are one mid week & PWO on leg days with "cleanish foods" and low fat - Fajitas and cereal for example. Then weekend one "dirty" cheat meal where I have what I fancy typically pizza

Supps:
Whey Isolate
Peptpro, Glutamine & Branched Cyclic Dextrins (Intra)
Vitamin D3
Chrominum (with carb meals)
Vitamin C
Multi Vit

Now for some training :D

Heavy Chest/Pump Back & Calves

Flat Bench max set 130kg - matched from reps from last time - I'm blaming it on the fact I had to the shiny thicker oly bar rather than my favoured thin old school one!

Incline DB max set 50kg - felt ALOT stronger on this today... normally I have to drop weight on 2nd set to keep up with reps but managed 2nd set on 50's today and form was spot on.

Decline Bench Press max set 100kg - wanted to pummel my chest on this... made sure to keep chest loaded during negative and slowed it right down, pause at bottom then squeezed it up not full lockout... burned like a b1tch

Muscle Round on Pec Deck with 84kg

Cable Rows
Underhand EZ BB Rows
DB Shrugs
T Bar Rows

Calves

On Horizontal Leg Press - 10 reps, rest 10 secs, 20 reps, rest 20 secs, 30 reps, rest 30 secs, 40 reps

Any questions please ask :)

Leanness is slowly dwindling haha but cheers buddy nice to know you've been following :)

Yeah have followed the plan to the tee tbh. I'm very OCD so all or nothing with it. Was hard at first diet wise as was kinda reverse dieting and Id get cravings but just nail coke zero haha. @Hilly has got me eating a lot more now tho to the point come cheat meals I'm not fussed what I have!
 
Heavy Arms/Pump Delts & Abs

Preacher Curl Machine max set 60kg x 9

Seated Alternate DB Curls max set 20kg x 9

Muscle Round on Cable Curls with 85kg

Dips max set BW+40kg x 10

Muscle Round on Overhead Rope Extension with 45kg

Giant set for Delts, 4 rounds consisting of:

Seated Laterals
Bent Over Laterals
Arnold Press
Seated Military Press

4 sets Hanging Leg Raises, 4 sets Cable Crunches

All reps beat no weights upped but progression is becoming very difficult now but every rep counts so happy to have beat everything even if it's by a rep lol.

Trying out a new gym after work tomorrow. Bit more of a health club but 5 minutes from work and it's 24/7. Most importantly it has heavier DB's than my current gym (new gym goes to 70's), a room dedicated to legs and loads of hammer equipment. Will check it out tomorrow and most likely join as its only 13 quid a month without the sauna etc.
 
Few PWO pics plus leg update :)

Another banging workout. Thoroughly enjoying training legs even more than before now it's pain free and I've finally started to get a good mind muscle connection with them. Widow makers are brutal, forgot how bad 20 reps are :lol:

Trained at new gym and it's awesome. Whole room for legs, hammer equipment everywhere, multiple racks, benches and it's 24/7 so think it's going to a live saver in prep for any late night cardio sessions or if I struggle to get weights in in the day!

"Clean" treat meal PWO now as its leg day (staple pwo now). Going to have the usual 400g white potato and 200g extra lean mince but add a couple of gluten free pittas, chicken and salsa too!

Flat Bench

4 sets Hammer Leg Raises, 4 sets Crunches

Just nailed 30g Whey Isolate, 100g Rice Flour, a Banana & some caramel snack a jacks and will have 200g extra lean mince and 400g white potato in about a hour...... Time to grow :D
