The Adventures of Beans

[string_bean00]

I figured I would start posting up my workouts and such on here.

Got a few pics here: http://www.steroidology.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=30275

More soon.

2-19-04: Shoulders
Military Press: 105x5x5x5x5; 110x3 (+)
Bent Over Laterals: 20x8x8x8x8; 25x8 (+)
Front Laterals (Barbell): 30x8x8x8x8; 35x9 (+)
Military Press (Dumbbell): 55x3; 50x1; 45x1; 40x2 (Drop set)

Guess I should explain how I do things a little bit.

The barbell military was my main delt work, and I really only consider that last set at 110 to be my workset. All the others are just extremely heavy warm-ups to get ready for my "balls to wall" set.

The other stuff is just complementary. As you can see, after the "balls to the wall" set, I don't have much left, as I was only able to put up the 40's for two reps on dumbbell military.

Diet for the day...
Meal 1: 3 bowls of Honey Nut Cheerios with 2%, 1 scoop whey
Snack: 2 Granola Bars
Meal 2: Chicken Breast
Meal 3: Chicken Sub
Meal 4: 2 scoops whey
Meal 5: 3 bowls Honey Nut Cheerios with 2%
Meal 6: Venison steak, baked potatoe, veggies
Snack: Peanut Butter

2-26-04 delts

Military Press: 110x5x5x5x4

Really wasn't feeling it today...so just took off after this. A little burnt out, I needed a low volume day.

A little disappointed in the 1RM squat attempt, but the two burnout sets at 135 left me nauseous and dissy. Good workout overall.
