Recently I've been feeling like complete garbage: My right leg twitches sometimes and gets a numbing feeling as if I am not getting enough circulation in it. There have been nights when it has kept me up and at a LAN party last week I laid down clenched in pain for about 15 minutes from it. One thing I've noticed however is that it goes away whenever I am actively doing martial arts or running (yes odd I know). so add this in with the forearm pain I get from curling and my lack of energy daily and you get one sorry S.o.B.
In an effort to overcome my issues, I've decided to go harder at the gym. Pulling up monster weight to overcome the forearm pain, Squatting heavy and running daily to keep the twitch down andd going more days during the week to stifle the lack of energy. I will also be picking up some multi-vitamin to supplement my eating.
I chalk it up to age, athletes detiorate physically when they stop and I am beginning to see it whenever I get lazy. Anyway on to the routine:
Shoulders
Arnold Dumbell Press: 60x12 • 60x12 • 65x10 • 65x8
Dumbell Shrugs: 110x11 • 110x10, 110x10
Reverse Dumbell raises: 30x10 • 30x10 • 30x10 (It burns, it burns!!)
Front Dumbell raises: 30x10 • 30x10 • 30x10
Lateral Dumbell flies: 30x10 • 30x10 • 30x10
Finisher
Dips: 14 • 12 • 10 • 10 • 10
Treadmill (Isos): 20 Minutes
Today I feel alot better, I have more energy, I am ready to go lift again and my leg isn't hurting me :)
This is a journal of my struggle. From mediocre to superior, natural body-building is a hard road of dedication, perseverance and strong will. It is a freakish lifestyle that is made for only a small percent. I am one of the small percent... and this is my journey.

Heavy Chest - April, 2
Well I had a week's hiatus to get used to a new job and also to build "Kyleen" - my Dual Core AMD Athlon 4400 powered beast. Having accomplished both, I set out yesterday to continue the path to perfection and as you can see in the following, I brought the hammer not unlike the glorious charge by king Theoden in the Return of The King.
Chest
Bench Press: 135x16 • 135x14 • 225x10 • 315x6 • 365x2
Inclined Bench Press: 80x10 • 80x8, 80x8
Declined Bench Press: 225x8, 225x8, 225x8 :(
Finisher
Cable Cross-Overs: 80x10 • 80x10 • 80x10
Not bad but not good either. Gonna have to step up my game even though the diet is a monster. New pics coming soon. Holla!
