What I did this week: Research: Emily wants me to create a workout plan for her and I think this will be really good for me since it allows me to view the female body and learn how exercise effects women and their muscles. Men naturally have a stronger body which is presented by the term of sexual dimorphism (Condition where the two sexes of the same species exhibit different characteristics). - I am still working on her workout plan and it will be done by next week. I am going to use Lucas' workout plan as a layout for the rest I create during this year. Eating Plan: I have finished Lucas's diet plan. It consists of his meals and what he can eat during a certain time. I have told him that he obviously can change some of the foods up, but if he sticks with this plan, he can obtain the best results in the shortest amount of time. It consists of food ranging from the 4 general food types, which I previously researched.
Next Week's Plans:
- Finish Emily's workout plan - Record videos of technique Physical: Went to the gym 5 times this week. I now weigh 135 pounds.

Engineering is the path I want to take after I leave high school. On the BCIT website they have the layout including the classes which an engineering student has to take. The program I am interested in is the electrical engineering program. In the first year of this program, I would learn about theoretical and practical aspects about circuit analysis, programming, electronic design, digital design, and calculus/physics. They also give fun facts which interested me. One stated that they have 100% employment rate for every individual who has completed their degree at BCIT.
Question: Why should I choose the engineering program at BCIT, rather than other programs from other schools? Gopal - Steve Nash Personal Trainer (IG: Gopi_sd)
Made an appointment to meet with him at Steve Nash on Cambie and Marine Drive. This interview happened on Saturday, November 17 and 4:00pm. It ended around 4:40pm and it went really well for being the first interview I've had in which I ask the questions. Here are some of the questions I asked and his answers to them: How old you when you first started going to the gym?
What was the process of getting a personal training license?
Do you encourage using exercise enhancement products such as pre-workout and creatine?
My goal is to start increasing my weight while gaining strength. Do you have any tips which can help me be successful? (Low reps, high weight is what I found on the internet)
What I did this week: Research: Contacted others who I am going to make a workout plan for. One is for Jasmeet Janjua, who is one of my friends of David Thompson. He has the same goals as Lucas, so I gave him the same one as Lucas. (Going to make a meal plan for him next week) Emily also wants me to make one for her and I will be working on that next week. Making one for a girl will be good for me because then I get to look at a female body perspective . Finished Lucas' workout plan using tips from Gopal and from the internet. (He said the workout plan was really good) Lucas Workout Plan:
Physical: (Plate = 45 pounds)
Went to the gym 5 times this week and I hit 2 personal records. The first PR was on my chest day. My previous bench press record was one plate 15, but I hit a plate 25 for 1 rep. I also hit a PR for my deadlift. Now it is 2 plates. What I did this week:
Research: Contacted a personal trainer from Steve Nash, and we came up with a date to hold an interview. I started making my questions to ask him this week. 1. How old were you when you first started going to the gym? 2. What was the process of getting a personal training license? 3. What steps do you take when you first meet the person you are training? 4.Do you encourage using exercise enhancement products such as pre-workout and creatine? 5.Do you have any tips which can help me be successful in increasing my weight and gaining strength? 6.I have a problem of eating as much as I should. Do you have tips which can help me get past this obstacle? 7.How did you learn proper technique and the nutritional side of working out? 8. What does your day to day work life look like? (How many people do you train and how long do you supervise over the gym for?) Physical: Went to the gym 5 times this week with Lucas. I saw his strengths and weaknesses and taught him the form for each day. He tends to lose his energy, so to counter this I told him to use pre-workout. One major thing included teaching him the form of deadlifting because it is one of the most injuring exercises. We had to start off light so he does not injure his back. I hit a pr this week for squatting - 1 plate 25 What I did: Research: Gaining Strength: While achieving the size of my body I want, I also want to be able to lift way more than I can right now. I was watching videos on how to do so but most of them were just clickbait. However, there is this you-tuber named Larry Wheels, who competes in professional bodybuilding. He has achieved major success in this past year, hitting personal records every week. His tips for increasing weight on exercises, is to not overwork your muscles. Sometimes people deadlift 4 times a week and he is highly against that. In order to maintain a gradual path of more weight, there can't be injuries. Otherwise, the injury will just delay success. He suggest to hit deadlifting and other important exercises once to twice a week. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVzuDYIapRU Nutrition: I was compiling a list of ingredients that work in favour for a clean bulk. I will not strictly force myself to only eat these ingredients in my food. I will be able to eat other stuff such as Church's Chicken, but I need to limit that to about once week. Many people who do bodybuilding or training have such a strict diet, and it's understandable because they want to reach their goals. However, for myself, there can be a balance, between healthy foods and junk food to reach my goal. Here is the the list of ingredients: (It will be later used in a full meal plan I develop for myself and the people I will be training) FIBER to choose from:
CARBS to choose from: Starchy carbs:
FATS to choose from:
PROTEINS to choose from:
Physical: Went to the gym 4 times this week. My ideal is 5 times a week but something came up and I was not able to go for the fifth time. Sometimes there will be errors in my schedule. I just have to work around it. Monday - Chest and Triceps Tuesday- Back and Biceps Thursday - Shoulders Saturday - Legs |
