Ok on Saturday, I went to the gym at 3 pm, and it was packed. I was pissed that I had to wait for all the people that did their bicep workout in the power rack. But once I got to the rack, I was feeling a lot better than I did on Thursday. For the last few days I have been able to down 1 gallon of milk per day, along with eating everything.
I was surprised I weighted in at 204 lb.
Squat: 1*10 @ 135 and 1*20 @ 235....( I was feeling good, so I decided to try jumping 10 lb)
Pullover: 1*20 @ 25
Straight Leg: 2*10 @ 135
Lat Pull Down: 3*10 @ 165
Rows: 3*10 @ 165

Day 1
As you can see I have started this blog a few days after I have already started my workout. My first workout was last Thursday 8/20/2009. I went to the gym at 6 am (not my favorite time, but my class schedule would not allow any other time, and I hate it when it gets crowded). I was feeling very stiff, and unmotivated. But I pulled through, and had a good workout.
I weighed in at 201 lb. I have read in few places that the best place to start the 20 rep squats is to take my 5 rep max (315 lb) and subtract (18 workouts * 5 lb) and that tells me that I should start at 225.
The squats were hard, and towards the end I felt like throwing up, and my legs were shaking.
This is what I did:
squat: 135*10 (warm-up) and 1*20 @ 225
pull over: 1*20 @ 25
straight leg: 2*10 @ 135
pull down: 3*10 @ 160
Rows: 3*10 @ 160

Intro
For the next 6 weeks, I will be posting about my experience with the squat and milk diet. I plan to go in Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. I will do the 20 rep squat workout as stated on the super squat book with a few modification of my own.
On Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday:
Squat 1*20
Pullovers 1*20
Straight Leg Dead 2*10
Pull Down 3*10
Rows 3*10
On Monday
Bench Press 5*5
Incline Press 5*5
Lat Raises 2*10
Front Raises 2*10
Butterflies 3*10
Skull Crushers 3*10
Currently I am 19 years old and I weight 200.5 lb, with roughly 12% body fat. I plan to drink about 1 gallon of 2% milk per day, and also eat a decent amount of well balanced food. I will try to post something every day that I work out. After talking to others who have done this diet, I am hoping that by the end of the 6 week cycle, I will be 230 with 15-16% body fat. Although I have heard a lot of good stories from others, I would like to first try it out, and hopefully give some good advice to others.
