I often find that I am more tired when going through a growth spurt. My body needs more sleep as it repairs muscle tissue and grows.

Nice work on those legs man! Your physique starts from the ground up. Keep doing it right big guy.

Oh, and I have never been a fan of dirty bulking. You can end up looking like a fat powerlifter instead of a bodybuilder.

HEY, I resemble that... I mean I resent that!! tongue.gif

I would never had thought about a dirty bulk and wouldn't recommend it either if you're going for looks. But, going for strength and power I wouldn't hessitate to recommend it.

my first bulk started off clean then i just kinda got outta control and started eating alot of dirty shit. it was the only way i could cram all the calories in each day and stay sane. i did put on alot of fat which im workin to get off now but i had good muscle gains as well. if you can force feed yourself only clean foods while bulking then more power to you. if not just stick with the dirty bulk and look forward to all the fat your gonna be burnin when you start cutting!

when you eat alot of carbs throughout the day with anabolic pump, it feels soo good, like your muscles are friggin swollen 24/7

if you dont eat enough, you dont feel anything from it

my legs are absolutely blasted today, had to literally limp out of the gym to go home.

trying to get up to wipe my ass when im using the bathroom is friggin hard (cant lift myself up with my legs)

new pr's

squated 315 for 4 reps 3 sets

then deadlifted 315 lbs 3 sets 5x4x4 reps respectively

i love the new pr's on an every other or so week basis


i need to workon developing the teardrops though, i absolutely do not wanna hit the stage with anything short of a leg with huge teardrops and looking like a thick slab of beef

having the cold sucks ass, especially in this 90 degree weather.

my incline bench went down by 30 lbs!!! from 185 down to 155, not to mention my gyms air conditioning broke so we were lifting in the heat.

im like coughing and sniffling like every other minute, i feel pathetic sad.gif and completely demoralized

just a lil picture of my quads (the rest is washed out)

http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/8992/p6030900ji3.jpg

heres a more clear shot of my upper body.

gonna get a good shot of my back in a lil while
http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/2045/p6030893hu5.jpg

one thing i notice is that my delts are being overpowered by my biceps
and i gotta work on bringing them up a bit,
my lats still need work on the width
and my chest needs to come up in size a bit,
my traps seem to be developing pretty well

my strength has gone up by about 20+ lbs on most of my major lifts since the ending of bulkfest,
especially the squats and deadlifts

however my bench seems to be lagging behind a bit (especially since i just got into free benchpressing from the dumbell presses i was doing since the duration of the bulkfest

this was mondays workout (back)

i absolutely blasted it, doing pull ups and dumbell rows, which i threw in a lat pull down to further hit my lats,

im really trying to blast it as much as i can to further stimulate its growth, again my diet isnt 100 percent yet so growth will be slow for the meanwhile.

i MAY incorporate supersets into the workout since ive been hearing
many positive effects of supersetting and growth.

but for now i cant STAND eating oats at the moment since i gotta microwave it and its a hot food during the heat which i DO NOT look foward to but i posted a diet on Riches
log and ill be eating more broccoli from now on.
Ill regularly eat apples and bananas too. (i have to add fruits and veggies into the diet)
im going to have to replace the milk with water in the protein shakes because of the high lactose which causes excessive fat gains but
not quite sure how to make up for the calories lost by cutting down on the milk.

oh man, because of a day called "roosevelt island day" the gym was closed and couldnt hit my legs mad.gif mad.gif mad.gif


i was lookin foward to hitting about 7-8 solid reps on 315 lb squat. dry.gif

anyway im gonna hit the gym, backwork since i wont have access to a squat rack tommorow.

im really eager to bring up my weak points (delts, lats, chest)

up to proportion with the rest of my body. it seems that the only place that really grows for me is just the legs.

but i cant complain since i havent hit those body parts as much as i shold have,
and dumbell work for my chest doesnt seem to really stimulate growth as much as a barbell.

im happy ive gotten my diet on track again, my appetite is starting to kick in again.
cool.gif
