    Thanks Adam. I should be looking at Middleweights this year but I'm just going to keep going and see where I end up. I might be 170 pounds a day out then it's decision time for George Farah and me on whether to drop to welters again.

I train much better old school with my stereo cranked up as loud as it will go and I can yell as loud as I want. I tend to get irritated with other people in the gym that hog machines and I don't like to wait or drive to the gym. This may seem unorthodox to do this at home by wife and her training partner (she's #2 ranked triathlete in the country and also pumps serious iron) are here most of the time to spot me when I need it.

    Weight 190 this morning. Going to bump cals up a little the cardio has caused me to drop a little weight a little too early on.

    Kevin....I won the Southern States training exclusively at home. No driving, no morons, no distractions. If you have everything you need, it makes sense to me. I know some folks think you HAVE to train in a gym for the motivation factor......I feel like if you need a commmercial gym atmosphere to be motivated your head is not in the right place anyway.

    Yes isn't it great when you can focus 100% and control the enviromnent and get 2 a days in if you want? I trained 100% at home prepping for the Masters last year and loved it. Except I acquriing my equipment last year as my prep went along so I really didn't have everything I needed until like 3 weeks out so I was unable to train legs properly. Now I have all the tools I need!!! I made a cd last night of older 70s and 80s rock and blasted it last night. The neighbors think I'm a lunatic but my 10 year old son loves AC DC now..

    Trained at Home.
    Monday, July 11th. Bodyweight down. Metabolism is really speeding up since I've added cardio and begun to eat cleaner. Will make adjustments to stabilize weight for then next 8 weeks.

    Quads Today

    Leg Extensions: 5x15-20 200-150lbs
    Uni-Leg Press: 5x15-20 (went straight from one leg to the other with no rest until all 5 sets of each leg was done) 6 plates per leg
    BB Front Squats: 5x15-20 225-205lbs
    BB Rear Squats: 3x15-20 315-275lbs
    One legged leg extensions doubled back: 3x15-20 70lbs each leg

    Blew up quads today. Used a moderately heavy weight but it felt like super heavy weight with the way I trained them.

    Now somehow I'm gonna have to do cardio 2night. That should be interesting.

    That was my first thought. Kevin, slow down, you're burning away valuable muscle.

    Recently I've had a few comments about my wheels NOT being big enough to hang with the middleweights on the nationals stage.

    This pic was taken 18 1/2 weeks out. Just standing there a little teardrop flex and that's all. I think I'll my wheels will be just fine.....

    18 weeks out and they look like that? WOW, I wouldn't worry about it. You know what your doing and how to dial in. How are your legs from the side (hamstrings). From my observations as a spectator for the last several years, the position/pose with your legs from the side is the money shots. If your hams look anything like your quads, the boys at the middle weights are going to be the ones to have to watch out!

    Kevin after a leg workout I get on the bike for maybe 20 min. to flush the legs out.

    Side Leg Shot looks good in the mirror to me. I don't have huge hams but they are round and my glutes are really developed plus my legs are shorter so they appear thicker probably than they actually are from the side. Not completely separated yet from quads/hams/glute tie ins it's going to take a while for that to happen.

    Thanks Michael I'll keep at it!

    Man, I couldn't even do that. My quads around the knee were so pumped up. I did do a little stretching a little while later but I'm still sore it's a great feeling!

    Do the guys making those comments have legs your size? I bet not.
