I'm going to the gym!!
« on: November 11, 2008, 04:06:59 PM »
I haven't been to the gym since May of 07. (went Olympia week)
So in about 30 min I'll head down to the Gold's on Flamingo and Sandhill and start with something easy (Chest and Tris) with a pathetic weight and do 30 min of cardio. 
I won't change my eating habits for about two weeks because I know if I do too much at once I'll want to quit.  So after my tough gym session I'll head to Chicago Hot Dogs and get two jumbo dogs with the works ;D

Wish me luck :)  booooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooom!

So today I'm 270lbs and around 25%bf.

Yes, they are fucking delicious!  I thought about eating them before the gym but I figured if I did that, there would be no gym ;D

Forget the cardio and get three jumbo dogs instead, my brother.

So I went and hit up arms.

5 sets of seated one arm machine curls up to three plates :-X
5 sets tricep pull downs up to 4 plates
5 sets of straight arm barbell curls up to 50 lbs
5 sets of tricep pushdowns (machine)

30 min treadmill 3.0 incline and 2.8 walking with heartrate at 134-138. (Yes I know that's high, it shows how lazy I've been)

BTW I saw Quincy Taylor working out all I could think about was Silvio Samuel meltdown.

I went to Chicago Hot dogs and got a Chicago dog and a kraut dog. 
Here's how it went...

Girl: So do you work at a gym or something?

Wiggs: No

Girl: Are you going to the gym or Are...

Wiggs: I'm coming from the gym.

Girl: So what exercises do you do?

Wiggs: Well it's the first time I've been back in a year so you know, bench, squat etc..

Girl: (Blank stare)

Wiggs: Cardio also

Girl: Oh yeah cause that's the most important thing.

Wiggs: Yeah, I'm hitting the big 3-0 next year and I gotta take care of my insides.

Girl: That's cool so are you from here?


The conversation continues and I order my food.  While waiting I decide if he's "hittable" or not.  I decide she is on bad day.

I get my shit we say goodbye and leave.

I'm not going to argue that I'm not 25% bf.  I don't wear it like a badge of honor. ::)
I'm sure it's around 25%

I'm around 14% but would go nuts taking that much time off.

Working out cams me down.

keep dieting and you will get there.  you could be a pretty jacked 225 or so if you work at it.

I will stay natural and once I get to around 10% bf I'll decide if I want to go supernatural ;D
I don't know what I want the end results to be.

I've never liked the idea being on juice while being a fatass.  That is asking for trouble with water retention and the extra weight.

I'm a legit 5'9

I will be using Dave Palumbo's diet.  I've tried many and I really like the idea of not dreading the diet.  I've done it once before and really enjoyed.  It works quite well.
I have all my supplements Omega 3 and 6. Fiber, multivitamins, a natural fat burner, and a protein shake.  All Palumbo's stuff.  I'll let you all know how that stuff is.

3-4 hours a week is almost nothing in the long run, to be healthy. Plus i run on the treadmill at home during the night.

I worked full time, went to school full time, worked out 7 days a week (about 30 min. per day), and took an online TEFL course. I got straight A's during this time as well. I had ABSOLUTELY NO SOCIAL LIFE WHATSOEVER.

Get dialed in and you can do anything.
