Background

When I Started: Aug 2003
HOW I STARTED:

In hs I did martial arts for four years, then in college I was in rotc for a while. I really got into lifting when I had a stint of of depression. I found lifting weights helped me fight it. Today I can't seem myself NOT lifting in my life.

WHY I LOVE IT:

The feeling and rush I get from lifting is great and nothing like it.

Modified Westside Routine

Posted in Training  :  Dec 28, 2010 8:09pm
No meets planned currently and I need a new routine to reach my goal of a 600+ dead / 500+ squat / 325+  bench.  So I'm planning my westside routine template similar to that of WSB4SB III with some tweaks. http://www.yale.edu/gradrugby/WS4SB.pdf Day 1: Off Day 2: Max Effort Upper Day 3: Dynamic Effort Lower Day 4: Off Day 5: Repetition Upper Day 6: Max Effort Lower Day 7: Off I'll use an off day occasionally for conditioning if needed. The reason I'm doing a repetition day for upper body instead of a dynamic day is simply because I need more upper body mass to press mor...

So this is the routine. Da...

My current training routine.

Posted in Training  :  Dec 28, 2010 8:09pm
I'm writing this simply because I have been asked a few times what my current training routine is like. I primarily got the idea of this by looking at Layne Norton's (str8flexed) routine and customized it to my needs. This form of training emphasizes strength and hypertrophy on alternating days and is usually 4-5 days a week.  Since I want to acquire a confluence between functional strength & aesthetics this form of training seems to suit what I want to accomplish. Day 1: Strength: Lower Body (Compound Movements) Day 2: Strength: Upper Body (Compound Movements) Day 3: Hypertrophy: Che...
