joelk Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 I'll post some more up after I upload them from my camera.I was pretty happy with how it all turned out and I think I'm on progress for the show in a couple of weeks which I'm aiming for. Got back to training yesterday, trained legs and back. I plan to stop training legs later this week to give myself more than a weeks rest. Squats - Bar x 15 60kg x 8 100kg x 3 140kg x 3 160kg x 1Seated goodmornings - 60kg x 5 x 3 setsPullups - 6 x 4 setsFront squats - 100kg x 5 x 3 setsTrunk twists - 10 x 3 sets After eating pizza, bread and dark chocolate on Sunday after the comp I have got back into dieting again, I still need to lose about 3kg to make the 78kg I need to be for my weight class. Meal 1 - Sunwarrior shake with 1tsp raw cocoa powder and 20g crushed flax seeds. I'm glad I got some more Sunwarrior because the Nitrofusion has too much sodium for this close to the show.Meal 2 - 150g tofu, broccoli and celery, olive oilMeal 3 - Same as meal 2Meal 4 - Protein shake (1 scoop Sunwarrior, 1 scoop Vega), espressoMeal 5 - Aminos, spirulina, creatineMeal 6 - Sunwarrior and almond spreadMeal 7 - Tofu, broccoli, hummus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robert Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I may not say it often Joel, but you are a HUGE role model for me! Just like Jimi Sitko is, Ed Bauer and many others, but you're right up there near the top as a fellow competitive bodybuilder who I have so much respect for! Awesome man! Not only a great physique but such an amazing attitude about everything and I really appreciate that about you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joelk Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 Thank you so much for all the kind words!! Robert, I don't think I'm up at Jimi's level yet but I take that as a massive compliment and appreciate that greatly. dude why are you posting pictures of your face on my body???? lol Haha...

patvirt Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 It's been great training with you. I think when Noah gets back we'll have another MVS sess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joelk Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 Hahaha! Thank you Vegan Joe Yeah Pat it will be good to get back to MVS again. Had a session last night, for some reason I haven't had as much motivation this week. I think I'm due for a break from training as soon as my comps are up.I've just got a couple more workouts for the week before I start tanning and stuff again. Back and shouldersDeadlifts - 60kg x 6 100kg x 3 140kg x 3 160kg x 1 180kg x 1 - Didn't feel too hard, I think I'm starting to get comfortable lifting this amount of weight. I should be able to go for a pb in a little while.Reverse grip bentover row - 100kg x 6 x 4 setsRope climbs - 2 sets - I don't get to use these much because the rope is in the boxing area of the gym and there are always people hanging around in there. It's fun when I get to use it.Dumbell presses - 35kg x 6 x 4 setsRollouts - 10 x 3 sets Just a couple more upper body workouts for this week tonight and tomorrow. Diet has been the same, I'll get rid of the salt by Friday and might try and carb up this time, depending on how I look and feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joelk Posted October 10, 2009 Author Share Posted October 10, 2009 I had my comp yesterday but have fallen behind with updating my training again - I don't really write it down anymore, so this is the only place I can keep a track of what I've been doing.Wednesday (I think it was the 7th)Back, shoulders and absPullups - 6 x 6Close grip chins - 4 x 6Bentover rows - 100kg x 6 x 4 setsMilitary press - 70kg x 6 x 4 setsTrunk twists - 10 x 4 sets Thursday 8/10Chest, shoulders and armsIncline bench - 60kg x 6 100kg x 3 x 3 setsDumbell bench - 45kg x 5 x 3 setsBentover lateral raise - 12kg x 10 x 3 setsSkullcrushers - 50kg x 6 x 4 setsDumbell curls - 22.5kg x 6 x 4 setsDumbell skullcrushers - 22.5kg x 8 x 3 sets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joelk Posted October 10, 2009 Author Share Posted October 10, 2009 I'm pretty happy because I finally won a show!!I placed first in the under 80kg category at the ANB Victorian championships yesterday.It is a relief because I have been doing this for a while now and always seem to get second and third placings so I'm happy it all came together nicely on the day.I'll have some more pics in the next few days, didn't have my camera with me so I have to wait for the official photos to come out.I am thinking of doing the nationals in a couple of weeks, if I keep dieting I should get my legs more dialed in, as they are still not as lean as I would like them to be.Today is going to be a leg and back session, my last leg session before next weeks' IFBB/NPFC show where Ronnie Coleman is guest posing - it should be interesting as I've never competed in that federation before.
