My Workout Program
This workout was performed from 5/5-6/29. Chest/Back was trained twice a week, as I wanted to increase my strength and size, while shoulders weren't trained very often due to a lack of time and the extra Chest/Back work should've hit them a bit. Diet was a bit cleaner than last time with clean foods being eaten more often (tuna, chicken, etc.). Calories were also increased because most of the time I wasn't eating enough to grow, but now I think that I'm close and can already see results from eating more. Cardio wasn't performed that much since I was focused on gaining muscle mass instead. Supplements were taken with the same frequency as last time.
Supps- Optimum 100% Whey Protein Powder, Optimum 100% Casein Protein Powder, Optimum BCAA 5000 Powder, AST Multi Pro 32X

March Supersets!:
This workout was performed from 3/17 - 5/4. Chest/Back and Biceps/Triceps were superseted which was exactly what I needed to increase the intensity! Forearm exercises were added which I like very much! I didn't do that much cardio during this time mostly focusing on the resistance training. The supps below were taken with more frequency than usual and my diet was MUCH cleaner with eating eggs at breakfast at least 3 times per week, having tuna and crackers at least twice a week for a snack, having a protein shake and natural almonds at snack, and having chicken and broccoli at least 3 times a week at lunch as well. I tried carb cycling for the first time too with Monday to Friday being lower carb days (at least I tried) while Saturday and Sunday were higher carb days. I still don't think my calorie intake was up where it needed to be because I lost a little weight but looking in the mirror I do look more defined so I think I'm close.

February Program!:
This workout was performed from approx. 1/21 - 3/16. Chest/Biceps and Back/Triceps were trained together so the smaller group wouldn't be exhausted yet. I'm pretty sure I hit a plateau during this time because my workouts were getting boring and I wasn't making any good gains. Although I was taking advantage of dropsets for Arms and Shoulders which gave my workout a much needed boost and I really enjoyed this type of training since it was my first time ever implementing an intensity technique into my program. This is also the first time I started taking a GOOD multivitamin and the first time I tried a non generic brand protein powder (Optimum). Both I believe worked VERY well. My diet was fairly clean like before but still I wasn't preparing good bodybuilding meals/snacks as of yet. I don't think I was eating enough calories because I was losing weight too.

October 12, 2011. It's about 5pm in the afternoon and I just got out of surgery to repair a sports hernia I've been dealing with since May. I haven't been able to workout for two months now and won't get back into the gym for another six weeks after this. I haven't been watching my diet and instead just eating whatever I want since August. Needless to say I'm in the worst shape I've been since I started exercising, seven years ago. November 21, 2011.
