That's foks number one excuse. I guess I can't use that one any more :D Thanks for posting that, it is an interesting read.

It sure does help. I greatly appreciate the response and suggestions. And the equation. It looks like i haven't been eating enuf calories. I have been way shy oh some days for sure. Thanks again!

I weigh in at a whopping 180lbs. Aprox 22-23% BF. I have been stuck here for a while now. I starged my first cycle of HST last Monday. I am more interested in shedding fat. If I weigh 180, my maintenance should be around 1800 calories right? So if I eat 1600 a day and burn off 200-300 a day...

Ha, me too. Even though I like them because I know they are very productive, something about having more than my own bodyweight on my shoulders gives me that eary feeling, or when you see that iron bar bowing a little. On the other hand.....it sure makes you feel stought!!!

I agree with the back not getting as sore as easy...... as far as working out is concerned. However, if I go out and rake leaves or dig a trench, my back is sore for a week!

That's the way DKM explained it to me in this thread http://www.hypertrophy-specific.com/cgi-bin....;t=5104 b0x

Thanks again to both of you for your responses! They are GREATLy appreciated. I have decided to do a am/pm workout 3 days a week. m/w/f. I will do the same 10 exercises am and pm. O&G always suggests doing no more than 60 total sets a week. If I do 10 am and 10 pm times 3 days a week that is...

Thanks Baby A. I appreciate the response.

how many sets are you doing each workout? just 1, or 1 for 15's, 2 for 10's, and 3 for 5's? edit: i guess i can't read...i see now 8-9

guys, I will be starting a cutting cycle in 2 days and was wondering if creatine would be a total waste. The whole concept behind creatine is so more water remains in the muscle for quicker repair right? However if I wanna look more cut, will it also make me look, for the lack of a better word...

Not real sure how to describe where mine came from. I used to do quite a bit of hacking and a pc is referred to a "box". so b0xm0ns73r = the monster inside your pc :-) and the 0's for o's and 3's for e's and the 7 for a t is all kinda hacker talk. Make Sense?

Thanks for the quick reply DKM. I was hoping I was reading that right. I am so excited, I don't want to wait a week to start. Now the more I read, the more i see where some say an am/pm split is better for cutting fat. I might think about doing that, if I can figure out the best approach...

I miss spelled chiefhog the first time and had to go back and edit it, and it was right there in front of me. Although I suspect my keyboard has a slight case of dislexia

chiefhog, You make us Arkies sound smart and educated :-) b0x I know thats off topic, but i couldn't resist

Are you saying that since I am 22-23% bodyfat and I just wanna get a lot more cut up, that I skip the SD? Or am I misreading that?

I don't think I put it in my post, but i do eat a lot of fish. Mostly talapia. I grill it. I can't stand any kind of fried fish......I guess thats a good thing though right? :-)

I'm glad creacher posed those question and glad ya'll answred. I will be figuring out my 5 Rm tomorrow and then will be on SD for 9 days and then start. Thanks to creacher, baby a, and gripstrength :-)

My diet usually consist of egg whites and maybe 1 yolk for 5 whites chicken breasts....lots of those (some would say I am a breastman LOL) lean steak oatmeal shredded wheat ceral skim milk...occasionally 1% sweet potatoes spinach tuna 100% whole wheat bread protein power either mixed with milk...

I thought I was the only one that done that. At one of my previous jobs, they laughed and laughed at me. I also mix my Spinach with beans. I don't like Spinach, but if i want them big forearms, i got's to eats me spinach ;-)
