kingkaboodles' journal


background: genetically huge. fat when i was kid, slim during my teens, gained weight after college. started working-out Seriously (again) 2 mos. ago. had previous bodybuilding & martial-arts experience.

goals: cutting my total body fat to my personal acceptable levels. to be physically fit, strong, and mentally stable. attain @ least a "Michael Clarke Duncan" look.

when my weight peaked @ 130Kgs, i realized that i wont live long if i keep it up. so i decided to fight depression and pick up my dusty weights. lessen my trips to Baskin's n Robbins, and wached my diet. i was able to drop my weight to 120Kgs when i saw theveed's post on a fat loss program. i used to train my full body every other day. which looked like this:

a. 30 min cardio (basketball or kickboxing)
b. 2 hour full body workout, chest, back, shoulders, tris, bis, legs, abs.

after following a 3 day split routine- fat loss program. i was down to 115Kgs. it's still a long way to go, but @ least i'm getting there.

i recently started increasing my workout intensity along with supplementation. my muscles were shaking whenever i lift weights (nasarapan ako sa contractions) and i felt my muscles heat-up internally. i noticed an increase in strength, and stamina. i could post my current pics, but it i don't want to gross anybody out.

they should call it crying squats, ksi mapapaiyak ka sa hirap. i almost gave up doing the rest of the routine after that very very tough exercise. well, if it was meant to "shock" my muscles.. it worked!

i haven't updated my web journal lately ksi meron naman ako sa MS Excel sa villa. i find it redundant to post the same stuff for my routine. i'll just post na lang the changes in weight, set, or exercise variation for a specific training day.

20 dec 04

cadio & abs
-------------------
jogged backward, sideward, and forward.

rediscovered the skipping rope / jumping rope. yes elephant's can jump!

note: better to jumrope in rubberized concrete or carpeted floor. pag direct sa concrete - better have great sneakers / rubber shoes, as it will lessen the stress on your ankles.

21 dec 04

chest
--------------------
(as per VW's tip - doing inclines first)
incline dumbbell press: 3 x 8,8,6; 30, 35, 40kgs (set the incline < =30 deg angle)
incline dubmbbell flys: 1 x 10; 20kgs
flat dumbbell press: 3 x 8,8,6 ; 30, 35, 40kgs
flat dumbbell flys: 1 x 10; 20kgs

after doing the above, my chest immediately felt swollen.


shoulders
--------------------
sitting military press(front): 3 x 10,8,6; 25, 25, 30kgs (replaced the sitting arnold press for variation purposes)
upright rows: 3 x 10,8,6, ; 20, 25, 30kgs


triceps
--------------------
lying tricep extensions: 3 x 8, 8, 6; 15, 20, 20kgs
dumbell kickbacks: 3 x 8,6,4 ; 15, 20, 25kgs


22 dec 04
rest, rest, rest... i'm sore today...

continued with the routine throughout the holidays. am now seeing gains througout my body. weight increased a bit from 115kgs to 116-117kgs, but my waistline measurement stayed the same. will continue the routine and mix-up the cardio with sprint training.

just bought another protein supplement - EAS MyoPro Whey 5lbs. medyo grouchy yesterday (31/12/04) @ naubos na ang ON EGG protein ko.

mamaya chest, shoulders, tri's.
