Hey everybody!
I thought that I would start a log for my fourth HST-cycle. The last two weeks I've been taking some new maxes (which turned out to be quite pointless, since my previous estimations turned out to be almost exactly on the spot), and resting for 9 days after that. Still bulking, although my belly is making itself more and more prominent (my mum made a nasty comment about it last week - oooh that hurts!). This is what I'll be doing:
Deadlift (w. snatch grip, kudos to QuantumPositron) / Squat
Incline dumbbell press / Dip
Seated cable row / One arm dumbbell row
Pullups
Overhead dumbell press
Hammercurls (only first workout of the week)
Tricep pushdowns (only second workout of the week)
The arm iso's are there to bring my arms up to speed with the rest (they are waaaay behind). I'll also be doing deep fascial stretching for biceps and triceps, which is why I'll only do them once a week (all sets of the week at once, since fascial stretching requires a nice big pump).
Foodwise I have had to cut down my budget significantly due to drastically increased rental fees where I live, meaning that most meats are unfortunately out of my fiscal reach (even though university education is free in sweden, and we get a small "studying salary" from the state, the extra money from working last summer has run out, so...). Chicken breasts are on the menu a few times a week, otherwise my diet is mostly milk (3 litres daily), lots of oats, eggs and mixed frozen veggies. Pre- and post-workout nutrition is whey/maltodextrin and whey. Any ideas about cheap, calorie-dense food are appreiated.
First workout is tomorrow. I will log my workouts and my daily calorie intake.
That's it.
