NICE!! Looking forward to your update.
Ebol is working wonders then eh?
This run of E-bol is just insane.. Seriously.
Let's get to it.
As stated before today was probably the best wo
I've ever had as far as I can remember, and it was leg day! Which is *not*
my favorite by any stretch.. that says something already.
Before going into the wo details I have to admit I cheated a bit.
I woke up and I wasn't feeling like working out at all (go figure..)
but I didn't want to break the great series of workouts I had
hence the cheating: I took 1/2 scoop of Ultima along with my Lit-Up.
This is no news for me, if money wasn't a problem I'd run those two prewo
every day, and probably have no rest day just for how good they are together.
But this log is not about Ultima, I just say that there's nothing in my book
that come close to that combo for prewo.
Anyway, I start my wo after only 5 minutes from the ****tail,
and wo (hypertrophy) looked like this:
Legs
Warm up with leg curls and prone leg curls 2 sets, not so light
get the blood flowing.
Usually i also do a couple of light sets of squats (very light but deep)
to warm up my knees (one gave me some probs few weeks ago) and then
move to the hack squat which is where I push more weight, but then something happened
After the warm up squats my mood was up to the roof,
and I was totally feeling a rush of energy and concentration
that was insane already. I couldn't stop squatting, not at that moment!
(the reason not to squat first is that of course I do the heaviest
exercise first, which would be hack for me)
So, I loaded good (needless to say I went up with weights on every set)
and went for the squats first
4 sets 12/10/8/6
the were suppose to be 10/8/6/4 but I just had it in me to do 2 reps more,
despite the heavier weight and I just went for it.
Concentration was crazy, as soon as I was touching the bb I was in the zone
and feeling great.
Added one last set, 3 reps, solid, deep, perfect form.
dropped the weights and supersets 2x on squats
followed by leg curls/prone curls supersets to failure (i like the opposite wo for
supersets even if it's hypertrophy wo)
Veins: huge
Pumps: *MASSIVE*
Strength and recovery up to a point I've never experienced before
I literally forced myself to rest for few minutes, as I wanted to hit the hacks
right away and my legs were just plain bigger and fuller.
Hack squats: new PR, 3 reps @ 300lbs! Again solid and perfect form, I wasn't even shaking
Now, that might not seem much for the big guys but legs are not my stronger body part,
300lbs is twice my bodyweight, it was at done after 4 sets of hack and 5 sets of squats
and most important, it was I think
40lbs more than last week!
So for me it was a pretty big deal
The hack squats were 4 sets 10/8/6/4 + the new PR 3 reps.
Needless to say that also boost my mood quite a bit
Kept going with
Front squats, 4 sets, went up with weights again
10/8/8!/6 + burn superset + curls superset
Split db squats, 3 sets, 12/10/8
went up with weights (I usually don't load a lot here
but I felt like adding, my legs felt massive and I had plenty of energy)
slow w/pause, very deep, form has been *perfect* the whole wo (that's Ultima there..)
Hypertrophy Leg Curls/Prone Curls
Usually here there's no much hypertrophy left to do but today, oh boy
Sat and started with Prone leg curls, 3 sets 10/8/6, I went up with weights
here as well but my legs started to hurt quite a lot lol and I did these with a
split second rest between reps + burn superset (light weight) to failure.
Same routing for the Leg Curls, 3 sets 10/8/6
only here no pause between reps, lifting was easy and I could've loaded more
I did concentric at the end and again superset to failure.
Legs are done and I was seriously 'holy sh#t..."
it was *not* placebo effect, that was actually strength,
deep stimulation of the muscles.
ABS followed and usually I'm tired and the abs session is light
and slow (also because I hit abs yesterday as well)
I rest for 3/5 min and then the magic, once I started the
abs routine something in my head just "clicked" and it was a whole
new game, it was like I didn't workout at all so far.
I felt fresh and focused and had plenty of energy,
I must've had a stupid a## smile on my face
I went for a mix of hypertrophy and burn for the abs routine,
hit some old exercise and felt them a lot, heavy weights followed
by odd angled exercises, full ab stimulation
crunches and leg raises, declined bench and side crunches bla bla
I was just going on an on, I stopped only because I checked the time
WO started @ 11am - finished at freaking 2.23!
with no noticeable decrease in intensity, 'nuff said.
Look:
I'm usually very critic with the way I look, but
i'm also not completely blind: I was *wired*, my whole body
was stimulated, roadmap vascularity everywhere really (**** my *lats* for some reason
looked bigger, and i mean a lot bigger..)
My abs are pretty visible normally, but today the side cuts were DEEP..
Something I've always noticed with E-bol - which will sound odd I'm sure -
it somehow seems to change the shape of my muscles, specifically abs.
When I'm on it the "bricks" look much wider, which is something I cannot explain
to myself, that's not the first time I notice it with it.
Actually, I use to have much smaller abs few years ago, still cut yes,
but the muscle themselves were not as thick and wide.
My very first run of E-bol (along with a big change in my Abs wo, yes)
was when they totally changed shape.
Anyways, I think that's enough excitement for one day,
and I wrote a freakin' book already.
I just want to add this:
I have absolutely no affiliation with ANY of the companies that make these products that I'm running,
and no reason to "pimp" 'em.
Recompadrol:
I spoken with the designer today to analyze
my diet and timing and dosing etc.. with it
First off, that's a great customer support!
Second he knows his stuff for sure
Third, he gave me some advice on timing and what to try
to get the best out of it and I'm totally gonna experiment
and find the sweet spot.
I want to add that today it was really the day where I got
rid of the water retention from the refeed, it was obvious.
So I still think Recompadrol will work fine once I found the
right timing and the right food.
Specifically I will try dosing it between meals, on my refeed with
fats instead of carbs, and other things I will list in the next days.
Today I can't make it the dosing between meals is already late for that
I'll start from tomorrow and I might take one pwo.
It's getting fun!
