Default Narcsarge's Notes!
Personal History: I was 198 pounds 2 years and 8 months ago with a Body Fat percentage measured @ 27%. I was your typical pear-shaped 40-something adult male. I decided to change. I cleaned up my diet and started lifting. I did things the smart way. I have always known how to eat, what to eat, and how to lift. I just never did it all at the same time!
As of this morning, I have reached my goal weight (I set this, not a trainer) of 165lbs. Now I can really start to add the muscle.

Today's workout BACK & BI's

Pullups: 4 sets to failure
10 (+10lbs.), 10, 8, 4

Bent over BB rows: 4 Sets
105lbs x 8
125 x 6
135 x 6
105 x 6

Low Cable Rows: 3 Sets
80lbs x 10
80lbs x 8
80lbs x 5

BICEPTS
Straight bar Curls: 3 Sets

65 x 10
75 x 8
75 x 6

Alternating DB Curls: 3 Sets

30 x 10
35 x 8
40 x 4

I did some calf raises as I am trying to keep from re-injuring my left calf. I only did 2 sets of 30 seated calf raises with 90lbs. My schedule and routine will be very erradic for a while due to my work schedule and Taekwon Do. I will post all workouts as they come!

I have had requests but wanted to wait until I hit my goal weight. No special reason for the number but it seems like a good size for me. You have seen my pics and everyone says "Add Mass". Alright, glad to know that I am where I want to be. I want to see how big I can get by adding on the lean mass I have seen so many others on this site add.

Thanks for all the support gang! I have always kept track of my routines and now that I have reached my "fighting weight" I will love to see what happens when I add lean muscle. This road has been a great adventure and I love the changes that the Bodybuilding Lifestyle brings. Of course my wife is none too thrilled with me being "so damn sexy!" LMAO.
