You follow this same routine for 4 weeks. Then for the next 4
weeks you keep the exact same exercises in the same order
but change the reps for to 5 instead of 10. So the next 4
weeks are 5 sets of 5 reps.
The final 3 weeks of this program is the power lifting phase.
During these 3 weeks you keep the exact same exercise
in the same order but do 5 sets of 3 reps. Then you take
a week off for the 4th week and start fresh with 5 sets of 10.
A quick overview of this program is:
4 weeks of 5 sets of 10 reps
4 weeks of 5 sets of 5 reps
3 weeks of 5 sets of 3 reps
1 week off
Start cycle over again.

First training cycle
Back on AD
After 4 months of doing a cutting cycle and preparing for my first ever fitness show, is time to plan for the future. Besides business plans, I am preparing for the next Naturals Bodybuilding show closest to next summer (2010).
I have 3 days back on a Ketogenic diet and I'm just waiting to feel my body adapting for me to have my first carb spike.
I've been keeping my diet simple and sees that as the days go by my I feel hungrier for the food I am supposed to eat which is a good thing since I am bulking up. I will be giving updates of my diet, some recipes here and there but right now I wont play with numbers only details.
As soon as I get up I have 200grms of DHEA, 1 tsp of glutamine, 1 tsp of leucince
I am aiming to put in my mouth around 3 OZ of meat with 10 almonds or nuts as my first meal.
Other supps Glutamine and leucince first thing in the morning, pre and post workout and last thing at night. 15 grms of fish oils and pre workout luekic and BCAA's
After that, during the whole day I eat until I feel full and my meals have con sits of:
Eggs with bacon/steak/chicken
Beef chilli
Beet stew
Chicken, bacon, egg salad
Pork Loin with homemade sauce
Steak
Snacking on leftovers or full fat cheese, protein and peanut butter or whey with coffee and cream.
