Ckmeter Road to Pro with STELLAR LABS 🔥— USA Prep Log 2026 Season

Ckmeter said:
Alright well yesterday was a non training day. Been having some glucose issues, so insulin was increased to 25iu of Lantus, and I’m splitting the dose. 15iu upon waking and 10iu around 4-5pm.

Even though it was a non training day, that doesn’t mean it’s a rest day. Went to the gym and did 25 mins of incline treadmill with 130+hr. Then, 20 mins of posing rounds.

I am lucky to have one of the USA judges training people out of my gym. I had the opportunity to pose with him the other day. He had no physique criticisms — all he told me was pose every fucking day 10 rounds a day, and start tanning every day because I’m as white as a ghost lol.

So…we pose every single fucking day! Here were some highlights — mind you, this is flat as fuck, on 2 meals, fasted without a pump.

I realized I contradicted myself in my last sentence. I only had two meals for the day, but fasted for roughly 4-5 hours before doing my cardio. Did my pm Lantus dose and 2iu of gh before the cardio as well.

Damn blood glucose can be stubborn trust me I know 😬

It’s just a weird spot for me having to use Lantus on prep. Not a place I’m particularly happy being. But food is too high right now to drop it.

Yeah I feel that. What’s your bg running?
 
Ckmeter said:
Oh man, I don’t know. Maybe my legs, arms and back? I feel like my legs and back are no longer way out of symmetry. What do you think?

I have a feeling it’ll be close. My Coach wants to have me ready 2 weeks out eating into the show. That is gonna be tough haha.

I can definitely tell your back and quads have thickened up.

Thanks man! That was the goal. Hams have fallen a bit behind now.

I added ham/glute touch up at the end of my shoulder day now.

Was also thinking I could do the Dallas Mccarver approach and shoot 50cc of oil in each glute night before my show…😂

I'm sure the hams will catch up next off-season. Filling in those legs is tough for you tall guys. 1 piece at a time.
 
Tonight was my back day. Just full disclosure, the tempo remarks are really just rough estimates. I go on feel — some exercises I try to get a stretch and slow the eccentric like the t bar row or linear row. Some exercises I just try to drive blood in the muscle like the strive row machine.

Single arm cable pulldown — 1 second concentric 2 second eccentric. Neutral grip slightly supinated at the contraction.

70lbs x 10
120lbs x 10
120lbs x 8

Mega mass t bar row — 3 second eccentric with explosive concentric. Force as deep of a stretch as possible. Overhand grip not crazy wide, but not narrow either. Trying to focus on mid back thickness with this movement.

1 plate x 10
2 plates x 10
3 plates x 11
3 plates x 9

Mega mass leverage pulldown — 2-3 second eccentric with an 1 second concentric. Overhand grip.

1pps x10
1 plate and a 25 per side x 12
1 plate and a 25 per side x 10

Megamass linear row 45 degree — 3 second eccentric 2 second concentric with a hold at the top. Shoulder width grip overhand as close to thighs as possible for low lat engagement.

1pps x 10
2pps x 10
2pps x 9

Strive upper back row — constant tension. Not really focusing on tempo, but ~1-2 second eccentric and concentric. Overhand grip.

110 x 10
220x12
220x10

Cable pullover

90 x 15
90 x 12
90 x 12

Workout was pretty good. Pump was ridiculous. All the Stada gear is clearly doing its thing! Shot my lats before the workout — makes the pump crippling.

Check ins with my coach tomorrow! Excited for some feedback and maybe some changes. Will post my check ins with stats tomorrow am.

If I'm shooting in my arms I'm more of a tricep guy over biceps.

There's just something about pinning my biceps that mentally I don't like, lol. Triceps not a second thought.

I don’t mind biceps until the shot is crunchy from scar tissue 😂. Then it messes with me mentally.

Today was a non training day. Went to the gym still, as my gf was training and decided to work on some posing technique.

I realized I have a big hole in my back double — because my adductors are weak, I have a thigh gap. I was able to close the gap by shifting my hips back a bit, stepping straight back with my back leg, and turning my legs out.

The result is seriously night and day. I feel like I’m MUCH denser and more complete posing this way. Until I don’t have any holes in my physique, I feel like closing the gaps is the most important part of posing.

I was super focused on fixing my lower half here, but my arms need to be a bit higher.
