Excerpts from the Diary of a Pissed Off Bodybuilder

First of all

Someone asked about where to get glutamine from in the comments section. I can’t reply from work cuz they blocked the damn comment page… sooooooooooo… You can buy glutamine powder from any GNC store here in Saudi. If you’re in the eastern province, you can get it a lot cheaper from Bahrain. The cheapest and best solution is to order online. I hope that helps.

As for not updating the blog, they blocked the damned blogger site at work… and you know that's where I'm most pissed off and write about crap that no one cares about… so from now on, I'll just write it up on word then post it at home… if I remember…

When I was young, I was like you

We all know that person, either at the gym, at work, or fucking anywhere you go. A guy at work, probably 5’5 or 5’4 weighing 260 lbs at atleast 40% body fat with atleast a 50 inch waist said this to me: “man, I remember back in college I used to work out. In about 3 months I had a six-pack, my arms were a bit bigger than yours and I got really big. I had to quit training because of studying and stuff and all my muscles turned into fat. If I wanted to, I could start working out again and in a couple of months, I’ll look better than you.” … I really didn’t know why this guy was lying his ass off… is it because he wants to tell us that he’d be better than everyone if he tried (a couple of guys were standing with us when he said that), or is it because he wants me to think that what I do doesn’t really take hard work to accomplish… I don’t know… that doesn’t bother me… what bothers me is why god gave this obese midget the ability of perceiving himself as someone with a great body, and gave me the exact opposite perception? (yes, I know, it’s probably a disorder of some kind. But when I look at myself, I don’t even feel like I’ve ever lifted a weight in my life. Eh, I guess it makes me work harder). WHY CAN’T I HAVE THE FUCKING PIECE OF MIND THIS GUY HAS ABOUT HIS BODY???? …. Ahh… who cares.

Good for shitting, literally

Psyllium Husks… Seriously, if you want a clean colon, regular trips to the bathroom without ESS (Exploding Shit Syndrome), and get rid of bloat, you should use this stuff. 10-15 grams a day.

Man!!!

I need a vacation… seriously, I haven’t been on a real vacation since… SINCE FUCKING LAST YEAR!!! I only took 10 days off in ramadhan, and 3 days off before the contest… crap… I need sleep…

New diet for another contest

There’s another contest coming up in 8 weeks. I don’t know if I’m gonna go through with it, cuz I’m going to be transferred to another department in 4 weeks and I don’t know where the hell I’m going to be assigned. So, I decided that I’m gonna prep for this one and see how shit goes. I’ve talked to Phil about it and I told him that I want to do it my way, since it’s not the contest we’ve agreed he’d prep me for. He was cool with it as long as I kept him updated. Sooooooo, since this is my own prep, I can tell you exactly what I’ll do. I’ve started Saturday, weighing 205 lbs at around 10-12% fat. I don’t mind losing muscle for this one… cuz basically, I have to if I’m going to compete in light-heavies again (187 lb cut off). Last time I weighed in at 183 lbs according to the scale at the contest… so, basically I have 18-22 lbs to lose.
Diet

Meal 1
300 ml super milk, 2 scoops whey (40g), 1 scoop casein (24g), 3 packs of grits with 1.5 tbsp dextrose, or 1 cup oats with 2 tbsp honey, 4 fish oil caps

Meal 2
300 grams chicken breasts cooked in olive oil

Meal 3
200 grams lean beef, 2 slices fat free cheese, 2 big whole wheat buns

Workout

Meal 4
300 ml super milk, 3 scoops whey, 1 cup oats, 2 tbsp honey

Meal 5
200 gr chicken breasts, 2 tbsp low fat mayo, 2 slices fat free cheese

That’s around 2800 cals… cardio is done daily, 30 minute sessions post workout. In 2 weeks, I’ll add another 30 minutes before breakfast.

I’ll be training on a 4 day split, high volume, very heavy compound movements mostly, and some isolation in the end.


Edit: I decided to drop out of the contest because I've strayed far from what I wanted to accomplish… my main goal is to be as big as genetically possible, and that would be quite impossible if I wanted to jump in contest after contest. And besides, this diet was miserable. Although I had plenty of food in me, the high volume crap didn't work with me… it burned more calories, but my arms shrank quite a bit in one week. So, fuck it. And on behalf of phil, I'd like to say to myself "I TOLD YOU SO"…

P.S. I wrote this about 10 days ago… so it's pretty old… I'll have an update in the next couple of days.

Have fun and stay healthy… I know I'm not
