Morning Bodyweight = 217.5 lbs
Alas, I have fallen short, and Bengali Prime must return. At the behest of my older brother, the not so mighty Bumblebee, I have decided to return to my blogging roots. I will stay on course until I reach 190 lbs (Goal = May 7th, 2011), and I acheive a 315 pound max bench press (Goal = April 14th, although if it takes longer, I shall still be happy).
I am taking 2 new supplements- Humapro (Amino) & Chained Out (Pre &/Or Post Workout BCAA's). Those are effectively 0 calories, so I will not include those in my caloric calculations. My weekly caloric target is 12,600 calories (1,800/day * 7 days). That is the happy medium for me- not too low so that I cave and go on a Dip Binge or lose substantial strength, but not so high that I don't lose at least 1 pound a week. On those days that I eat in excess, I will tend to compensate by having a fasting day the postceding day (Fast Until Dinner, which will be moderate 500 - 700 calorie meal). My daily protein target is 40 NNU (Please see http://www.humapro.com/ for details), and although I am not going to be low-carb, I will try to keep my carbs at less than 200 grams per day to optimize fat burning. Also, I will try to cycle a bit with my calories- as I tend to be hungrier on workout days, I will target calories @ 2,000 for training days, and 1,500 - 1,700 on non-training days.
In addition, I will be providing weekly pictures! Although I am not at the point that I feel comfortable providing shirtless shots (although the ladies are requesting this), I will be providing
shirt-full poses that will effectively illustrate my progress. As I am swamped under MBA coursework, expect the photos to start appearing in about 2 weeks. Finally, I am thinking of also tracking measurements- this is an evolving processs.
