Welcome to my thread. Thanks for dropping by.

First, let me tell you a little about myself:

I have been browsing these forums for a long while without being registered. I have read many nutrition articles and have learned quite a bit. I still will admit I am a newb.

Previously, until 7/20/06, I have been using the Smith Machine that my dad owns to build muscle. I haven't been able to see massive growth, but then again, that wasn't my main goal until recently. I used my knowledge of nutrition, smith machine, and running shoes to see results over the past 6 months.

I started in January at 200 LBS. I was 5'10" and had no muscle and big manboobs. I hated myself. I had no self confidence. I decided to make a change about it. I started weight training along with cardio and had a nutrition plan. I lost 40 LBS and got under 160 LBS. I had also grown an inch. I then decided I wanted to gain some muscle mass. This was roughly a month ago. I slipped off the horse and ate fattening foods while lifting weights and gained over 10 LBS which was mostly fat. I still want to gain mass, but I am very disgusted with how I look. Because of this, I plan to cut to under 10% bodyfat and go on a clean bulk. I estimate my bodyfat to be around 17%. I am not sure though.

From January to now, not only did I see weight loss, but I saw my lifts go up.

Bench - 90 LBS
Bench (Now) - 125 5x5

Squat - 115 LBS
Squat (Now) - 145 5x5

Deadlift - 105 LBS
Deadlift (Now) - 140 5x5

I am expecting them to decline now that I am going on a cutting diet, but hopefully not much. After all, I am still weak, and you can't go down from the first level. Once I get cut, I will then be able to add some mass to myself cleanly and being happy with the way I look.

Here is my course of action:

I plan on taking in roughly 2000 calories daily. I would like to have a ratio of about 45/35/20 (p/c/f).

I plan on weight training 3 days on / 1 day off.

Weight training schedule:

Day 1: Legs/Abs
Day 2: Back/Bicep/Tricep
Day 3: Chest/Shoulders
Day 4: Rest

I will be starting with day 3 as my first workout tomorrow morning, since I have worked Back/Bicep/Tricep and Legs/Abs already this week.

Cardio will be done roughly 5 times a week for 20-40 minutes depending on intensity level. HIIT will be done 1 out of every 5 workouts.

I am now going to start taking some supplements. I have Whey Protein, Muscle Milk (currently being shipped), Creatine Monohydrate (going to take until I purchase Creatine Ethyl Esther), and I plan on purchasing Xceed and Omega-3.

I will be posting each workout schedule once I know it.

I will be posting my daily nutrition as well. I would like to get an accountabilty partner to keep myself in check and criticize me when needed as I will do the same.

Thanks for your interest.
