Check out his workout if you're looking for something. You don't need anything fancy, just the big compound lifts.

PS. that's one hell of a workout haha

Chest and shoulders is Tuesday and it is one of my more advanced workouts.

I realized that halfway through haha.

I did it like this.


I wasn't sure on pushups or abs either... so I just din't count those haha.

There are a few other things I didn't count because I didn't know how.

That is good, I won't count push ups either. And I think for abs you should count as long as you are pushing weight or full body weight. Like leg raises where you are hanging in the push up position and raise your legs to the bar you are holding onto I am going to count for body weight. But I am not going to count crunches.

So 45,375 - 5610(push ups)= 39,765 for today. 1,000,000 - 39,765= 960,235lbs in 89 days to go.

make sure you post pics, and if results are good i would be interested in hearing your routine and diet.


im really young (21) and in the last four or five years i went from a skeletor 5'10" weighing 125lbs to now, same height 5'10" but i weigh 165. im very active but the pounds really packed around my mid body, gave me a bit of a belly and a booty.

hope this goes well for you OP!

What kind of pics? While we are lifting like OP and his wife? The most important part about lifting is diet. You need to be eating you BMR(Body Macronutrient Ratio, look it up) Eat proper amount of good food, stay away from the junk. Plenty of rest and lots of water.

If you want my work out I will post it here every day I work out. Each exercise(if you don't know it look it up), each set of each reps.

How freakin COOL is this!! I posted for support and now I have a whole crew getting jacked with me!!

Glad to be part of your crew. Lets do this!

We're supposed to hit 1000000 within 30 days correct?

OP said 90 days. But you should hit it sooner.


Good to see all the people joining in.

[blck325is]

Me and my dad are gonna be kicking it off pretty soon too. We're the same height and weight which baffled me Although everyone estimated him at 20 lbs more which absolutely killed me Anyway, good luck everyone I hope to post results once we start up!

I say just use best judgement on stuff.

Here is yesterdays workout:

Snatch
5x45x5 = 1125
88x3 = 264

Clean + Jerk
88x5=440
98x5=490
133x5=665
155x2=310

Squat
135x5 = 675
185x5 = 925
225x3 = 675
245x1 = 245
255x1 = 255

Pull Ups
1x10 @ 175lbs = 1750
1x5 @ 175lbs = 875

Total = 8,694
Seems weak. I guess I am doing the most complicated lifts possible though..

Dude, if you're just doing all Oly stuff, don't fret, they are some really complex motions that require skill. Good work dude!

Ahhh.. What the heck, why not

Cardio:
25 Mins

Bench Press:
135 x 10 = 1350
155 x 10 = 1550
45 x 25 = 1125
65 x 15 = 975
135 x 10 = 1350

I then preceded to push out a massive 5 pound dump; not sure if that should count or not, but I'll include it anyway

Dump:
5-pounder variety x 1 = 5

Total to date (starting 9/10):
6355

Dude, just set a goal and start taking steps in the right direct. My wife and I decided on this and use Visalus to give us a good balanced healthy diet. If you want some more info or suggestions shoot me a PM.
