RG's 2008 Progression to Victory

[Aztech]

yeh...i have plastic calipers that sometimes show 8%. I'm like you...i can flex and arm and see lots of separation in the triceps and shoulder muscles, the strips you know. My legs are very non-fatty as well. All my weight is in the gut but 12% is what it is. As long as you have preogression, it's just a number. Good luck man, don't burn yourself out.

Decided to measure, what the heck. Figured I could keep up with my progress.

Calves
R 17.5", L 17.5"

Quads
R 23.5", L 23.75"

Waist
33"

Chest
45"

Forearm
R 13.75", L 13.75"

Biceps
R 17", L 17"

Neck
16.5"

Gotta play catch up with my calve to bicep ratio. Not too many times you hear that one.....

Yesterday for instance:

Incline bench
Flat dumbells
Decline bench (smith machine)
Pec Deck machine
Over head chest pulls, laying my back on a bench (don't know the correct name for that one)
Cable crossovers from the bottom
Cable crossovers from the top

I usually do 3-4 sets for the first 2 exercises, and then 3 for the remaining exercises.

I always try to do heavy weights, around 8-10 reps, and very concentrated on each exercise.

This may seem like a lot of sets, but I only train chest 1x a week, and this has always worked well for me.

Ah, thanks buddy.

 

[RichGenetics]

What's going on with my red karma???

Did I do something wrong or am I just special? LOL

 

[RichGenetics]

Today I'm stuffed because of this new diet. It's difficult, but managable. The food sometimes isn't the easiest to swallow, but I will be alright in a few days.

Back to training tomorrow. Today is an off day, so doing legs tomorrow. Can't wait.

quite special from the looks of it

I don't get it though....everybody is green, I'm red.

My stars are regular, yours are red.

What's up with that? LOL

 

[Aztech]

stars are from post count..quantity and color depend on number of posts

 

[RichGenetics]

I just noticed in my User CP section that all my karma is now -1726.

I think this must be the reason it's all red, correct?

 

[Aztech]

someone does not like you or your comments...one of the mods...

 

[RichGenetics]

Yeah, it's Stone Cold.

He's just anxious to ban me for some reason.

I guess I pushed the "Researchology" button too hard.

 

[RichGenetics]

Being a member of this board for almost 3 years now, and there's not a single negative thing I've done on here.

Then I decide to voice my opinion on Researchology and some things that recently happened to me personally, and other people start chiming in saying the same thing, and I'm getting the barn yard treatment now.

I'd love for Stone Cold to just understand that I'm not trying to stir up anything, but this is a "discussion forum" right?

 

[Aztech]

hey, don't get all butt hurt...having all red karma makes you stand apart from the crowd...like a resident badass.

 

[RichGenetics]

You've got a good point. I kind of like the red Karma to be honest.

Hopefully I'll get to keep it.

I suppose every good board needs a badass, even though I've not portrayed that image but once....

I don't even think it was once. Still, I'm happy here until my demise.

Hey join the club

 

[RichGenetics]

I guess I'm officially a "member" now.
