Day 16

Today did Biceps and Triceps, I was feeling good so heres what I did:

Biceps warmup
(10-12 reps)
Incline DB 3-sets (light wieght around 30lbs to start)

Biceps workout
(4-8 reps)
Incline DB 3-sets
Barbell Curls 3-sets
Reverse Grip Curls 3-sets

Triceps warmup
(10-12 reps)
DB Kickbacks 3-sets

Tricep workout
(4-8 reps)
DB Kickbacks 3-sets
Skull Crushers 3-sets
Reverse Grip cable Pull-down 3-sets

*Also I did the exercises alternating bodyparts ie: bicep excerise then tricep excercise etc.

I had a awesome pump in my arms I measured after my workout just for sh*ts and giggles and my arms were 16 3/4" compared to the un-pumped 16". Crazy an almost full inch pump! Felt great!


2-Hours Later

Cardio
2-min walk warm up
1-min jog warm up
10 Hiit Program 30 sec jog/ 30 sec sprint


Talk about being tired afterwards..not to bad though I made sure to eat a little extra carbs on this day to cover the hour long bicep workout and the Hiit Program.

Good luck on your training! You are my height and at my max I was 198 SOFT lbs. Now I am 180 and hope to shed about 10 more. Being a guy that use to weigh 145 to 150 I am f***ing huge in my mind!

If you use to wiegh 145-150 and now your at 180....HELL YA! Once you cutt up I bet you'll be stacked! I'm currently about 209lbs. My best ever I was at 189 solid with about 13% bodyfat, but now I look like a big guy with my shirt on, but take off the shirt and let the fat hang..lol. I still got a little of my size (even for the old..old...old...gear days), there just a layer of fat on it. Right now I'm trying to get some bulk back and lose a little wieght in the mean time, I'm not doing a total bulk cycle or cutting cycle, kinda a happy meduim..lol

I had no mass @ 145-150. I retired from the PD and went to work inside, in a/c, so I sat and did nothing. I ate only one meal a day. Suddenly I was 198 and I had to do something. I have been in the gym for almost 3 years and I have a bodyfat of 17-20%. I am not too terribly concerned of being 'ripped' but the fact that I don't roll over my pants any more is wonderful!

I hear that, I took a little break for awhile I still lifted but only when I wanted to and I didnt have my diet in check. I started to notice a little roll popping out from underneath my vest and it reminded me of my fat FTO so I freaked and got back to the master plan!
