KM's "Get Huge Bro" Journal page

[kmc]

So I'm givin' this whole journal thing a go. I've been into the whole fitness thing for a few years now, and discovering the paleo/primal style of eating was one of the best things that ever happened to me, especially early on.

At this point I'm not 100% primal, but I do eat mostly whole, unprocessed foods, with an emphasis on animal proteins + vegetables.

Anyway, at this point, I'm actually focusing on gaining weight (muscle, preferably,) working my way from 175 lbs (my lightest weight, this summer,) to 200 lbs. It's a meaningless number I picked because why not.

I'm currently at 192, and I'm having a bit of trouble putting on the last 8 lbs. So, this journal is my way to keep a bit of a better tally on what I'm eating any given week and whether or not it's workin'!

Overall

For some reason my squats just didn't click yesterday, but today was much better. 145 was my 1 rep max about 12 months ago, so doing it x5 felt really good. Also slept like a baby and have a better sense of well being today... I blame that damn nor' easter that came through last night.

Hey Kent. Good to see you on here. Interesting vid my friend. A nice wee twist on Wendlers 5/3/1. His routines usually have you starting with (for example the 5's week - week 1) 65% x 5, 75% x 5 and 85% x as many as possible?!

If I could suggest anything, it would be alot more food.

Great that your now repping your one rep max, keep at it mate.
