2011 Contest Prep/Week 20 - On The Move

Posted by Jeff Alberts on Sunday, April 24, 2011, In : 2011 Contest Journey 

When I'm getting ready to settle in for the day I do not want to reflect back and second guess myself…could I have did anything better today? I want that answer to be a resounding NO! 

Weight
Start Date - 12/06/10 - 206.5lbs
Goal Date – Whenever - Goal Weight – 160lbs
Current – 04/23/11 – 180.6lbs

*Note – The scale has finally moved past 182.2! It’s time to show what this veteran is all about :)

This prep I’ve been trying a different approach. In years past, I simply would...

2011 Contest Prep/Week 20 - Busy Busy!

Posted by Jeff Alberts on Tuesday, April 19, 2011, In : 2011 Contest Journey 

Wow! I have been so busy lately…family time, 3DMJ, training, studying, etc. it’s been hard to get a blog up. I’m a little behind, but I’ll do my best to cover everything.

Family Day
On Saturday April 9th my wife and I shared a family day with her dad, grandmother, aunt and uncle. We all drove out to Marin Headlands where we celebrated my wife’s late cousin, Mary Kate, by spreading her ashes over a beautiful mountain side which overlooks the stunning San Francisco Bay where she is now ...

2011 Contest Prep/Week 18 - No Turkey!

Posted by Jeff Alberts on Wednesday, April 6, 2011, In : 2011 Contest Journey 

I ‘m totally over my cold from last week and I have resumed my normal activity.   

Weight
Start Date - 12/06/10 - 206.5lbs
Goal Date – Whenever - Goal Weight – 160lbs
Current – 04/05/11 – 183.4lbs

*Note – I hit 180.6 on Friday 4/1/11, but it was a fluke weigh in. As of Friday, I began taking creatine monohydrate as suggested by my teammates. Because of the creatine intake, recent high sodium levels and Saturday’s big re-feed the scale moved up, but visually I look leaner and much...

2011 Contest Prep - Week 17 - Damn Cold

Posted by Jeff Alberts on Sunday, April 3, 2011, In : 2011 Contest Journey 

I came down with a damn cold right after my last workout on Tuesday. Knowing from my past experiences in training with a cold it only ends up making things worse, so I decided to play it safe and cease my cardio sessions the past few days. In doing so, I just lowered my carb intake to make up the difference.  On regular days instead of 260 grams of carbs I lowered it down to 240 grams. I will re-adjust back to 260 starting on Sunday. I'm feeling much better now and ready to resume my normal t...

Team 3DMJ Coach/Natural Pro Bodybuilder


Jeff Alberts Welcome to my 3DMuscleJourney! As many of you know I created this website back in January '09 to journal my training leading up to the '09 INBF Capital City Championships. Since then the site has seen some incredible changes, including the formation of Team 3DMJ. I'm very proud of all the great changes to the site and it couldn't have been remotely possible without the help from all my teammates, family and friends! My 2011 contest season was a huge success with a few division titles and a trip to the IFPA Yorton Cup World Championships where I proudly finished 7th in a very competitive middleweight lineup. I'm officially in my offseason and you are more than welcome to follow along! jeffalberts@3dmusclejouney.com
