Alright guys, I started a log over in the MST forum for their Ironman stack + will be throwing in some goodies along the way! My goals here are strength and endurance while maybe loosing a little lbs! I was a gymnast for 10 years and after quitting that have lifted weights ever since! Just recently I have picked up crossfit! Which is definately a new change of pace for me! For those that don't know, crossfit if kind of like olympic weightlifting + gymnastics + endurance all in one! Pretty intense! I am definately enjoying these workouts and change of pace right now as opposed to the old "bodybuilding" workouts I have been stuck in for the past few years! Also, it is a good challenge for me because I have never done much olympic lifting like the clean and jerk, etc so I definately have a lot to learn and I think it will ultimately help me hit my goals! I have definately been alot more sore lately and more tight! My endurance sucks now so crossfit workouts usually kill me in that dept! Definately think that with crossfit I will be able to really put the MST supps on the line and see what they can do! The crossfit sectionals are coming up soon and even only doing crossfit since mid december I thought about going just to see how I would do! Think it is a good goal to work towards! Anyway, lacking the citruvol in the stack which comes in the mail today but here is how yesterday went down!

Thoughts/Rants/The Goods:
Strength-
Well, as you can see I hit a PR on deads today! Which felt great! I have a feeling a week or two into the full stack I will be feelin like a beast! Felt strong and solid today but was a little tired today! On the push presses I felt very week though, however, I attribute this to the shoulder probs I have been having with my left shoulder! Slow rehabing, stretching and ice are slowly working their coarse though so it is getting better! Would have really like to have been pushing 185.
Endurance-
Definately had some mega endurance going! I was at the gym almost 2 hours....granted an old gymnastics buddy caught me halfway through my workout and talked my ear off so that kind of slowed me down! But even after all of that, I felt like I could definately stand another 2 hours! I wasn't tired at all and I am still not tired right now! Feel like I could go for another workout right now ! I started giving out some during the freddys revenge workout but after a short break/breather I felt as strong as one would during the beggining of a workout!
Vascularity-
Hadn't really noticed this until my ring strength cycle! Holy ish my veins were poppin out everywhere! Look like I had a roadmap of veins pulsin! This was great! Looking forward to see what the citruvol will do in this department.
Focus-
Definately am liking the Focus xt blend! Can definately tell a difference when I take it! I am always ready to tear the weight up and seem like the ol mind-muscle connection is very strong
O2-
Definately was doing well today! About the only time I got winded was during the freddy's revenge workout. But my resp rate calmed downed rather quick and felt like I could take deeper breathers better! Feeling great!
Side Effects-
None whatsoever
Thoughts-
Today was a great day! Even though I was tired I hit a PR and definately feel like I could have worked out for another 2 more hours! First day has started off with a bang and am already loving the stack! My citruvol comes in tomorrow so definately looking forward to trying this out! Also looking forward to see how the mycogreen treats me!
Already looking forward to tomorrows workout! DO IT DO IT!!!!!!
