Lose Fat & Promote Strength And Muscle!*
It has been almost one year since my last competition, but I will not be competing this year. Instead I will be resuming my online training journal as readers are still responding to it from when I was a teenager.

Before I train, I get my thoughts on paper. They're not pretty and they're not nice. They help me destroy myself again and again.

You are probably wondering if you want to be bothered with the hassle of keeping a journal, recording every exercise, meal, thought and feeling in a book (along with actually getting yourself to the gym). You'd be surprised how much one can really help!

The training log is a must to track your progress, set goals, and record training information.
By: Yunier C.
Why keep journal/training logs of all your progress? Well that is quite simple to explain because if you don't keep record of your lift how would you know how much you should do next week?

This training journal documents my 13 week journey during the AST 2002 World Championships competition.

A proper log will show you what worked and what didn't. Got an injury? Go back two months and see if you've made any specific changes for that muscle group lately.
By: Ryan Mackie
I like to look at everything I do with my training very closely. Knowing exactly why I'm doing certain routines, training methods and why I'm following a certain type of diet strategy.
By: Derek Charlebois
Lots of people have been asking me to do a bulking series like I did for my contest prep. So I decided to. Watch as a try to gain 25 lbs of quality muscle. Weekly updates and pics with full details of what I am doing.
By: Phano Paul Som
I banged out three sets of 10 reps to get my body warm and my muscles stretched a bit. Next came barbell rows using an overhand grip.
By: David Knowles
I am not positively sure that postponing the contest was the right decision. Of course, it will free up a lot of time, but it would also be great to win that contest. I have been able to spend a lot of time with my grandfather, and it's definitely paying off. I still think that I would be able to spend an extended amount of time with him regardless of if I did the contest, so I may just change my mind!
By: Layne Norton
Wow what a difference two weeks can make. Two weeks ago I was going over my pics and being objective with myself. I think I have the size to do well at the natural level, in fact I know I do. However I realize that conditioning is much more important and that I was not as lean as I should be with seven weeks out!
By: Phano Paul Som
Today was my first day of training chest alone and I was actually feeling up to the challenge of not having a spotter. I began with flat bench press to get things going. I put on 135 and banged out 15 easy reps. Then I put on 185 for another 10 reps. Finally, I slapped on 225 for another easy 10 reps. At this point, I thought I was warm but I really wasn't. It takes a lot more for me to get warm than it has in the past. I guess it's because my muscles are stronger now...
By: Layne Norton
Cutting down for a contest can be a bit unnerving at times. I look at myself everyday in the mirror so it is hard to tell if I'm getting the results I want. However over the past two weeks things have been looking up. I have dramatically increased my vascularity in my arms and shoulders and I'm starting to show vascularity in my legs and lower abdominals...

I am following an Intermediate 4-day Split modified for Advanced Training so I can train body parts more frequently to cycle my weight & rep scheme and also to vary the exercises and technique.

After four grueling months of intense training, the men of Detachment 1, 2-116th Cavalry departed for Bosnia, minus one.
By: David Knowles
This week was a pretty good one. The downside to not having a workout partner is, of course, not having a spot. This is really no big deal if you know someone in the gym. However, if you don't, workouts like chest or back and suffer…Big time! You can correct for this by improvising and increasing the intensity by increasing the number of reps or exercises performed. Time to get nasty!
By: David Knowles
This week definitely proved to be somewhat mentally challenging and relieving. Late in the week, I had to let my training partner go. Now I'm flying solo for the contest preparation. It's kind of a bad thing in that I have no spotter for the heavy lifts, but at the same time, it's a good thing because now I don't have to wait to train, I can go as I please. The spotter issue was resolved by the help of my dad and my roommate, so that's one less thing to worry about. I feel like I'm a little ahead of schedule for the upcoming contest. I'm right at six weeks out on Saturday, so it's getting pretty serious at this point.
By: David Knowles
This is what I've been waiting for!! Finally, a little time to relax and worry about nothing. This was a great week for training since I can rest all day and be, basically worthless. It is bittersweet, but this break is also very welcomed. I'm about 8 weeks out and counting down. In about two weeks, it will be time to really start buckling down.
By: David Knowles
What a week, I feel like I've been run over by a train. If I can make it through these last two finals, I can make it through anything. Soon, working out and dieting will be all that needs to be worried about. With this week, I am about 2 months out from my next contest on July, 6th
By: David Knowles
From here on out, the journals will be from Sunday to Saturday, starting with this one. I have also made an addition. At the end of every journal, there will be a summary of the exercises, weight, and reps that I did for every workout. This way, if you want to get right to exactly what I did, you can just scroll down. So, on with hamstring training!!
By: Phano Som
Lately, I've been eating an extraordinary number of calories so I'm feeling much fuller than I have been in the past month or so. I have also been stimulant free for over two months and this has affected my intensity level. However, I was still going to have a hell of a back workout today just because I love back training so much...Read more!

Well, after coming in at a very heavy 230, I have cut down to 214; I tried to lose a little weight, but only enough so that I don't get my body fat levels too high when I start adding mass again. I plan on bulking up again for football over the summer, so I'm looking to put on quite a bit of size this time around. My strength has dropped considerably, as I am not pushing/pulling anything close to where I used to when I was heavier.

Okay, little symptoms of overtraining have been nagging the past few weeks, and I was debating whether to train this week at all, since I am experienced enough now to know when I'm about to hit that point where the body begins to shut down...
By: Alton Hare
An interesting thing happened, I found out that, when I did 390 for 4 on the squat in one of my earlier articles, they were not full squats. They were slightly above parallel, I'll explain as I get into the journal.

I tell you, the hardest part about this movement is having to get the weight started yourself. So I spend a lot more energy trying to get that first rep up than anywhere else in each set.

I did the first week of it and by Wednesday my whole upper body was sore. The new methods, MPO method, and Maximum Pump method were good methods for growth.

Here is my training journal and workout program as I try to gain more mass over the summer!
By: Joe Corleone
Things are getting bigger and better-- especially me. I have gained 7 lbs (mind you about only 4 lbs of that is actually muscle tissue-- the rest represents mass from fat and water) but still have maintained a good level of definition.
