Dadup's First Show into Offseason Journal!
Hey guys, I've seen so many great logs from Provo, Data, Solution, Taylor, etc. (sorry if I left anyone out) that I decided to make one for my own prep!
A little background on myself, I was a really chubby kid, played college tennis... Then got really fat cause I was "trying to put on size" ya I was dumb haha... So I have included some pictures from along the way in my physique journey...
I am currently 11 weeks and 5 days out from my first show, the Europa Super Show Dallas... I have been working with a few clients and have wanted to compete for the last 2 years, so I figured what the heck, might as well do it now! I will be getting married exactly 3 weeks after the show date, so that is in the back of my mind as well... I want to look the best I possibly can for my wife on our wedding day, whether I do the show or not!
I'm looking forward to everyone following along and if you want to offer and critiques, criticism, or encouragement, feel free... I want everyone to enjoy my log and thanks! I don't intend on "winning" I just want to go be the best I possibly can be and hope that Jesus gets all the glory through it all! So without anymore hesitation... HERE WE GO!"But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: while we were yet sinners Christ died for us."

I have found that my body responds well to keto, but being that I am this far out, I am going to experiment with adding carbs in pre and post workout to keep myself full and hold on to some more muscle...
I have always been a low volume trainer, but I have decided to increase the volume and my back has come up... So I will continue with this for now! Here is what I did yesterday for back and biceps... OH... one other thing, I do cable movements only for arms, I have noticed a huuuuge difference in the last few weeks doing this (much like Dave advises)
5/26
Meadows Rows 4 x 8-10
Standing Hammer Strength Standing high row (kinda hard to explain) 4 x 10
Underhand Cable Row 4 x 12
Pullovers SUPERSET Incline Cross Grip Pulldowns 3 x 15
Single arm cable curl 4 x 12
Single arm hammer cable curl 4 x 8"But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: while we were yet sinners Christ died for us."

5/27
Today is the first day I have added in cardio...
4 sets leg raises
4 sets weighted machine cruches
20 minute HIIT on the elliptical
my current macros are 219g protein, 95 g fat... I will be dropping some fat and adding in about 50g of carbs split between pre and post workout this week
I know my calories are a little low, but I am experimenting with keeping them low for 4-5 days, then having 200% of maintenance for my refeed which is coming out to about 750g of carbs... I have noticed that my body is responding very well to this... So I guess if it ain't broke don't fix it... But I will constantly be making changes as time progresses!Last edited by Dadup; 05-27-2013 at 03:02 PM.
