ok ill start with the usuals
a bit of background
started training when i was 15 in the basement joined a gym at 16 and progressed well but made the mistake of thinking weight was muscle result was at 19 iwas 335lb strong but fat natty i trained mainly for power but decided i wanted to enter a bodybuilding show
i started dieting on easter monday and stepped on stage on oct 14th at 200lb i was helped by key taylor british lightweight champ and mary anne gaye female pro
i won my show but felt there was no where else to go, natty shows in uk back then were small and had little following so i turned to the dark side 4 years later i was sitting at 340lb in ok condition (around 15%bf) and looking for a show i had decided on th enorth east efbb qualifier in leeds, it was about this time i met dorian yates. he said that if i could come in condition for leeds i was to go and see him and he would mentor me, well i was stoked hit the gym with amazing intensity, the result a completely detached left pectoral during a set of 120lb incline flys
i couldnt get it reattached and got severely depressed, dropped out of training and just got fat 12 years later i was 370lb of blubber
i was involved in a serious accident and when the paramedics arrived was technically dead, they brought me back! it was at that point i decided enough was enough and started sorting my weight out, got back in the gym and now im sitting at 312lb with around 12% ish bf
lifts areas follows
squat 300kg x4 all time best current 300kgx1
bench 210x2 all time best and current
bnp 220x2 all time and current
dead 300kg x 4 all time best (dont dead any more)

i run a hybrid training system ive developed myself nothing new just a mix of TUT (10secs reps) and old school heavy stuff just added in some fast pace high rep volume stuff to help with that loss

diet is
1.2kg steak
1.4kg chicken
400g rice
1.2kg potatoes
1kg broccoli
7-8 l water a day
split over 6 meals

i run SSN products firstly because i highly rate them and secondly because im sponsored by them use alot of fast acting stuff in and around my workouts

Ok biceps and quads
Started with seated alt db curl wasn't sure how my bicep was going to hold up but it was fine hit 35kg DBS for a good solid strict set
Then dropped weight picked up pace and repped out for 3 sets
Then did 3 sets of ez curl tut and two sets of high rep, biceps we're fried pumped beyond belief couldn't even touch my face
Quads
Started with alvins leg ext format
So 15 reps 5 secs rest 12 reps 5secs 10 reps
Worked up the stack in 3 sets then changed to
12-10-8 for another 3sets increasing weight each time
Then sets 12 single leg changing foot position every 4 reps x3 sets

Then reverse hack squat
Got up to 3 plates for 12
Swapped to regular hacks started at 3 plates repped to failure then dropped to 2 plates and repped to failure for another two sets
Then widow makers on leg press
I couldn't stand let alone walk lol
Great workout
