MN5's 2010 get ripped plan
-
With Summer coming up I ripped out the 5 minute gun workout from a few pages back. Needless to say my arms are aching like a muthafucka. Surely thats gotta be beneficial ! I might aim to get down around 95kg again whilst maintaining strength and guns. Any advice on how to achieve this will be greatly appreciated.

more protein, less carbs. plain and simple plan of attack - add in a few cardio sessions - walk up and down those hills around your house would do the trick - a week - 30 minutes or so, and you'll be tickety boo! We;ll see you on stage next year at Welly...!

Haha I forget you've been to my pad ! <br />
<br />
The getting to 95 shouldn't be a problem and those hills are a good stretch but being a bit of a vain prick I'm really keen to maintain the "guns" as best I can ! <br />
<br />
Aw and bodybuilding ? naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa -
Walk on just two legs then mate, not gorilla styles haha<br />
<br />
Wouldnt have thought you'd lose much on the arms mate.<br />
<br />
Im trying to lose a bit of fat too. So upped the cardio and just to knock the carbs back a bit and replacing with protein and extra green veges (which are carbs too I think? - maybe better ones?)<br />
<br />
Might flick back a few pages and check out that arms workout too. Like what I am doing at the mo (10 x 10 on the bicep) and tricep superset folllowed by dips but always keen to try new stuff -

Yeah not talking too much dude but just a little bit, maybe a belt notch or two ? At 85 as opposed to 95 I start to look a bit emaciated. -
5 minute guns night again tonight so will let all excited readers know how I go on that. The kilo ( maybe just under ) I have lost since last time should help me immensely ( he said hopefully ) <br />
<br />
JK, flip back a few pages and you'll find it, 5 minutes ( one of which is spent resting ) but fuck me, lifiting a protein shake afterwards will just about kill ya ! -
So last night invloved a 55 second chin up, 13 x 35kg bicep curl ( if you count the last few being shit in terms of form ) rest, 65 second dip followed by 10 x 35kg standing tricep extensions ( and yeah form on the last few of these was awful too )<br />

OOOOOOOOO my.............:knuppel:<img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /> -
Thats the plan dude, honestly they are FUCKED afterwards, give it a go. It hurt to turn the steering wheel backing the car out !!!<br />

That was a pretty cool article, and a pretty nasty workout!! My new training partner has some evil bloody workouts for arms, I'll share them sometime if I haven't blanked out the traumatic memory of them lol.

Heading up to the rapa this weekend ( mentioned on another thread this was the scene of the disaster of 2007, luckily I'll be back in Welly by the ABs semi ) and really hoping the old man hasn't left me any manual labour that involves heavy lifiting cos the arms are still aching like a mutha fucka.
-
What would be worse though?! having sore arms or dropping something in front of your dad and getting that fluffybunny look from him!! Fight the pain, make dad proud lol!

Whoa ! Haven't written in here for ages, poor from me. Still trucking along, proud to say I have dropped to 96-97kg whilst maintaining strength ( well still deadlifting the same ) Bench has gone down a bit fuck it, I put this down to lack of practice ( ie I've still been doing push presses and clap push ups ) it should be back after a couple of sessions. I have to say that after last weeks benching my shoulders hurt like fucken anything, clearly they had gotten used to not doing it ! <br />
<br />
How did I drop the weight ? pretty simple really, completely cut down all the drinking I was doing during the cup, I was 102kg the day after the WC final.....jeans and shirts definitely a tiny bit looser. Imagine if I gave up completely ! -
Shit, I just came across this section of TSF.....wow, should have really ventured in here a long time ago!! Pretty bloody inspiring stuff going on here, really good reading.
