Update

So I've gotten a slight bit bigger, not really expecting much results. What has improved though is that EVERY exercise has either gone up in weight or the reps have gone from 6 to 8 or 8 to 10. I'm eating decently, can't really have a great diet with school and homework in the way, but decent is fine until the Summer. Doing two leg days a week now, and I'm surprised I'm not hating it. I'm also now starting to drink more and more water everyday, trying to go up 10 oz every day until I hit a solid 150oz per day.

As for my weight, as of yesterday (3/20/11) I'm 154 lbs, yes this is with only N.O in my body as I woke up late, and went with my partner with literally just N.O and 2 slices of bread and peanut butter. The time I measured myself last time (2/24/11) I had N.O and a bowl of rice and I was at 149 lbs. I'm sure the lbs will fluctuate and I've gained maybe a pound of muscle and the rest just from water.

3/3/11

Did a back workout with Neil Dang, and the embodiment of god himself Hanh. I didn't lift as much as I could cause I was hungry, and somewhat intimidated by Hanh's sheer mass. I've never been so inspired. Words cannot describe the feeling you get seeing one person deadlift 500lbs. The whole gym literally stopped, the people dropped their earphones. At the risk of sounding like a nutboy, which I secretly am, well all of us that are less-privileged are.. I'm honored to even talk to him, and have him spot me. Though if you ever read this Hanh, I can't understand a single damn word you say. Its like the muscle is blocking your voice or something. But yeah this is more of a mentality blog. Also, it's 3/5/11 as I post this, and my back is dead.

Day 4: Delts (3/1)

Good workout aside from the lack of weights for the weaker people at the Chapman 24.

Warm Up
Dumbbell Shoulder Press - 2 sets - 20 reps @ 10 lbs

Workout
Dumbbell Shoulder Press - 5 sets - 10 reps @ 30 lbs (went up to 35 for 1 set, but was too heavy. finished only 6 reps)
Shoulder Flies - 5 sets - 10 reps @ 15 lbs (had to finish last 2 sets with 10lbs)
Bent-over Lateral Raises - 5 sets - 20 reps @ 10lbs (no higher weight)
Cable Shoulder Raises - 5 sets - 8 reps @ 10lbs (fatigued shoulders. one of the harder exercises)
Rope Front Raises - 5 sets - 10reps @ 30lbs (felt this one for sure)
Machine Flies - 5 sets - 10 reps @ 70 lbs (did last set on 60 lbs, and first set on 80lbs. Ended up drop setting towards the end between 70 -> 60 -> 40).

I'll edit this and give a review on how I feel after I wake up tomorrow. I've had 5 meals so far today as of 10:48 pm. I've just eaten a whole bowl of white rice, beef, and green peas about 50 mins ago, and I'm starting to get hungry again.. it's ridiculous. In fact my servings are even bigger than what it was before I went on this diet. Instead of listening to the boss, and eating 75% of my appetite, i'm actually eating a full 100%, but I get hungry within an hour to an hour and a half. Anyways, meals for today. Morning: Protein shake, turkey cheese sandwich. (8:30am) Brunch - Egg, Ham, Cheese Burrito, and string cheese @ school (10:15am ish) . Chicken Bowl @ school for lunch (12:30pm). N.O XPLODE, and a bowl of white rice with 1 whole chicken breast (60g of protein) 3:20pm. Post-workout shake (50g of protein), and 1 hour after had a peanut butter sandwich, and some almonds. Had my last meal at about 10pm which was the beef and green peas. Now a protein shake w/ milk and bed-time. Goodnight!

Day 3: Back (2/28)

Just made up for the other back day, and now I'm officially caught up in the workout routine. I'm really pumped to change my body. no pun intended. Practically the same workout minus the deadlifts which are now moved to leg days. I'm horrible intimidated by both the leg day, and tomorrow where I meet Hanh. I can't squat to save my life, literally (messed up knee because of osgood-schlatters). Anyways, had my daily amount of protein. Ate about 9 times today, 5-6 meals, and the rest were pretty much 'snacks' according to Neil and Phyman. And eating this much and especially in the morning really stimulates my metabolism. If I don't eat within 2 hours, sometimes even less, I start getting irritably hungry. Can't even nap without waking up and worrying about my nutrition.
