I have been reading the forums for a while, probably a year or two, because I would love to juice. I will probably juice one of these days when I feel I have gained a reasonable understanding, but for now I am natural.
I actually ran about a 4 week cycle when I was about 20 and it was Test sus and Dbol I believe. My trainer was a local supplier ($$$ YOUCH $$$) and so I figured I would try it. He did not explain anything or warn me about post cycle therapy (pct) NOTHING....after reading this site I have been blown away! (fortunately I couldn't afford a full cycle and was on for not even a month) I guess it is nice to know that I didn't suffer from any of the typical sides.
That is all beside the point......I am 5' 11" and 200 lbs I have no clue what my bodyfat is so I will guess it would be 17%. I have no clue of daily caloric intake either.
My goal is to Cut while retaining muscle or even building size if that is possible. I have been out of the Gym for 2 years and have been back in the gym for 1 week running all body parts MWF 3 sets of 20 light weight and 45 min cardio EFX fast pace on Tue & Thur. I would need to do Cardio in the evening on MWF as I am fairly certain that one thing I will be told is that I need cardio every day. Also please let me know if I should include Sat & Sun as well.
I used to be very dedicated to working out, for about 5 years. One thing that I do know about my body is that my genetics do not allow me to handle high reps very well. I throw up throughout my workouts when doing 20 reps and on my 10 rep leg days (I love legs and tend to go nuts on them). Also, I typically do not allow alot of rest between sets primarily for time restraints but also to add to the cardio aspect. I talked with a guy that was a trainer and seemed intelligent who said he thought my sickness during high reps could have something to do with ineffecient oxygen delivery. I thought perhaps NO2 might help with this and might give it a go if I stick with High reps. I consider High reps 12 or higher
I am a Network Administrator so I sit at my desk at home and type on a computer all day with no physical activity after workout, other than sex at night. (sometimes I LOVE burning calories!)
I try to Diet but I do not know enough about what foods contain what I should and should not eat. I would eat an all Tuna diet but I know to much of anything is not good. You start saying Maltodextrin-whatever (is that an apple a day?) and all that other stuff and I get lost. I get very very hungry throughout the day so that is my biggest downfall.
I can barely wake up but I force myself to wake up and work out at 5:30 as I have to be back at the house by 7:00 to log into my computer. Since I can barely make it to the Gym on time I cannot eat before I workout and all of the diet tips show meal times before and after workout.
I am curious how the fact that I can't eat before affects me, is it good to eat before because your Body needs that food for the workout etc. I would appreciate feedback and especially if someone could throw a sample diet plan out. Please be as specific as possible if you can since as I mentioned I tend to get lost in the terminology, though I will research the Terms and perhaps PM you if you use the terms and I cannot seem to find info to my understanding...
I am also always open to workout plans if they can be geared more towards weight loss as well as building.
I hope you guys are not to hard on a long winded Noob, I just wanted to make sure you knew everything about me so you could know what would best suit my needs.
