Another day at the gym.

    What's up everyone! Haven't been on here for a while. Training and dieting has been alright but could be alot better. I've been slacking to be honest and it's only affecting my results. I've got my NPC card to compete this year in Oct. Life has been decent to me even thought there will be some up and downs along the way. In all I think it will be a great experience which I can't wait for! Whether I place 1st or last, this will give me an idea of what to do next year. With the help of my cousin Mike Marcano who is also competing this year, I've been on track. 

     Today I did chest along with some tricep's and calves. I was pretty tired when I stepped foot in the gym so I took my pre workout drink and sat around for 15 mins till it kicked in. I spent like 2 mins stretching and then once my headphones went in my ears the game was on. 

                                                                     Training Routine:



  • Cable Chest Flyes: 3 sets of 12,10,8 (Squeeze that chest! Idk how many times I tell people to contract their chest which really is the whole point of any exercise.)
  • Dumbbell Chest Press: 5 sets of 12,10,8,drop set(failure),drop set(failure). 
  • barbell bench press: 3 sets of 12,10,3 ( I only did 3 because I did 275 lbs.)
  • Incline Dumbbell Flyes: 3 sets of 12,10,8. After I reach the targeted number of reps, I convert the flyes into presses till failure.
  • Pec-Dec Machine Flyes: 3 sets of 12,12,10.
  • Tricep Cable Push Downs: 4 sets of 12,10,8,drop set (failure)
  • Seated Calf Raises: 4 sets all to failure!


  Well as you can see I started going back to my 12,10,8 rep ranges. With the help of my cousin, we came into conclusion that I need to start lifting a bit heavier again. If you guys have any questions, feel free to ask. Hope these routines help those have an idea of what to do in the gym. I'm not saying do the exact same thing I do, just use it as a baseline of an idea of what to do. Everyone has a different goal and body, you have to find what works for YOU!
