Reducing My Bulkiness
It really dawned on me that being too bulky doesn't work to my benefit.  For one, there is no way I can maintain the muscle I have now because it just take ways too much work and time.  Not to mention that I am probably doing more damage than good in the long run when I am benching 300-310 pounds vs 150-225 pounds.  Just thinking about the stress I am putting on my body.  Second of all, when I get older, I don't want to have a sagging body and man titties when my muslces goes to hell.  Third is the fact that I can't pick up my own body...meaning pull-ups and hand stand push-ups...annoys me alot!

So I am changing my routine to do more toning/getting smaller, strengthen the current muscles I have, and increasing the endurance of them.  This is my basic workout outline:

  1. Stretch for 10 to 15 mins
  2. Do cardio until I burned 1000+ cal
  3. Stretch for 5 mins
  4. For weights, I will be doing 4 sets of 20 to 15 reps of weights 50% to 60% of my max weight for each type of exercises I do.

But I am keeping one day a week to do max training.  I don't want to loose the fact I can bench 300...yeah its a pride and manly thing =P

Been doing this for the past two week.  This is a really different type of burn and soreness.  Still getting use to it.

I benched 305 for one rep when I weighed 165 and it only took me 3 months to get there. You can be strong AND lean. RAR!!!

I don't like stretching. But i can definitely identify with losing the bulkiness. I even feel like i'm kind of bulky. I usually bench 135 as many times as I can.
