Back/Bi's 9/2/11
Duration: 3 Hours
Mood: Aggressive
Energy: Limitless
Other notes: Considering the fact that i'm about 10Lbs heavier for this workout, These PR's are BIG like a 20Lbs+ increase in weight. Had HUGE pumps the entire workout and added some new exercises which ended working out really really good.

Notes: Still trying to get the movement down, The key that separates these from bent over rows is you stand up more and pull to your hip. Feel these in my lats/rear delts/teres area. AWESOME!
EZ-Bar Preacher Curls- Friend showed me how to do these with the hyperextension chair, Never would of thought of that! I've been wanting to do these and they're now my favorite bicep exercise. Weight is just the plates (don't know how much the bar weighs)

Thanks and Oh hell yeah, the only thing i live for! Once i get those then growing soon followsNice job on the PRs bet it feels real good. I know I do when it happens.
Didn't win, no biggie though. Yeah the myofascial helps a good amount, helps break down scar tissue and muscle adhesions (when they stick together) helps bring out more separation as well. So far the only areas that are painful for me are upper back and hamstrings.Goodluck on the hghpro contest..that'd be a kick ass run after testopro. And man its been so long since I used testopro but I would imagine its at full effect by day 10.
This myofascial softening sounds interesting..igotta look into that
Keep killin it bro
NICE!!TestoPRO Day 7 Notes

Let me tell you man, if you just push yourself beyond the last workout you will get results without even having to second guess any thing.NICE!!
Great reviews!
I'm hoping my EndoSurge gives me the same kind of results!
Yup, that's the goal in all workouts. Specially on this recomp.Let me tell you man, if you just push yourself beyond the last workout you will get results without even having to second guess any thing.

Sub'n right now!
Sounds good. Look like you are going to be making some massive muscle gains!!Diet Breakdown 9/4/11
Calories: 4230
Protein: 357 Grams
My appetite is starting to increase little by little. Who knows, i might get back up to 5k if i feel hungry enough. Pretty sure this is my metabolism kicking into high gear since i'm on my 2nd week of training/this log. I've been getting really sore this week too, i have proven in my overtraining log that after 3-4 weeks soreness diminishes despite high intensity/set training. So these first few weeks i'm gonna feel sore as crap more than likely but since now i have surplus cal's i should really start seeing improvements around the end of week 2/beginning of week 3.

I'll look into that definitely, soreness is brutal right now! I do tennis ball rolling and that seems to help a lot. Feels "good" in a little painful way tooI live to train that way.
A short high intensity cardio session right after you workout (10 min is enough) will help the soreness. Toss in foam rolling on leg or back day and you are golden.
Keep killing those cals while the intensity is high.
Hell yeah man!! Thanks for making such an amazing product, i'm sold on this now probably my favorite supplement ever! Once again thanks for the opportunity AI is an amazing company.Wow. This thread is really blowing up! Keep up the great work.
I like that as an adjective...MURDERED...quite nice as it rolls off the tongue...good work bro.Ok so today for legs i MURDERED my entire workout, i am dead serious too. People were throwing Ronnie Coleman quotes at me today i felt like a freak. The belt helped me as well, honestly a belt does NOT make the weight lighter at all. Just felt more stability using it which was awesome it helped me crank out more PR's with better form. To top it all off, the guy who owns the gym/supplement store asked me about my current job and told me they might need some help to work there soon and i immediately told him i'd be honored, he was surprised but i told him i love it there. I'm sooo hungry right now, I'M GONNA EAT AN ENTIRE COW! Then post my workout for you all to drool at
Murdering iron is killing with a smile (Parkway Drive?) Thanks man i'm so happy right now!I like that as an adjective...MURDERED...quite nice as it rolls off the tongue...good work bro.
Congratz on the mean workout and the future job prospect. Waiting on the workout lol. Makes me miss being able to just go to the gym and do a full on volume workout.Murdering iron is killing with a smile (Parkway Drive?) Thanks man i'm so happy right now!
Hell yeah man, i'll get that up really soon. Making a bunch of food right now it's REALLY needed LOL! What all do you have to workout with where your at?Congratz on the mean workout and the future job prospect. Waiting on the workout lol. Makes me miss being able to just go to the gym and do a full on volume workout.
Oh wow i didn't even think about that, Damn man at least you have something though it'd be horrible if you couldn't train at allI got a small room and a weight set lol.
I workout at home.
Later today when I get back home I'll post a pic lol. Btw that'll be in about 10 hrs lol. My work day starts now. It's 910am here in japan lol.
Sounds like you are recomping well. Yea at least I can lift lol.Little update, My appetite is SHOOTING up right now seriously. I'm able to consume more food more frequently now. I will try and get 4300-4500 calories now, I am getting leaner as well which is making me even more happy. Weight today was 225.2Lbs morning weight, (+6.6Lbs) The initial 10lbs i gained was definitely water/glycogen but that is a good gain as well. Strength shot right up after that, water is not as bad as people make it out to be
My goal is to be over 230Lbs at the end of this run and noticeably leaner. (This goal may change too)
My god. Amazing workout. Making me wanna hit the weights even harder lol.Leg Day!! 9/6/11
Duration: 2 ish hours?? Didn't really keep track haha
Mood: EXTREMELY focused
Energy: More than enough
Other notes: Had a sick session today, Started using my weight belt and it made a huge difference. Didn't effect my back pump at all, i like lower back pumps! Hamstrings are getting a lot looser to the point where my squat is starting to shoot up since my form is on my legs more now then my lower back like before.
Lifts:
Rack Pulls-
225 x 12
315 x 5
385 x 7 *PR* +20Lbs
405 x 2 *PR* +40Lbs, Set was done AFTER 385, Next workout gonna go for 405 x 8-10!
Notes: After these sets instead of being wipe out i was PUMPED UP, I was so happy it was like a high.
Barbell Back Squats- Squatting to parallel again but now i have my ham's loosened up so my form is WAY better. Literally felt it all in my legs, was really happy with it!
225 x 8 *PR*
245 x 5 *PR*
255 x 4 *PR*
265 x 5 *PR*
Notes: Honestly these sets were a walk in the park, I couldn't believe how much better i felt with these!
Leg Press- Tried to emphasize my quads as much as possible on this exercise. Few sets i held the last rep short of lockout for about 10-15 seconds.
380 x 10
470 x 10 *PR*
560 x 10 + Negative *PR*
650 x 10 + Negative *PR*
Notes: Found out a flaw which made me 10x stronger on these. I was going down too low and putting the weight onto my lowerback pretty much. With the shortened ROM my butt never came off the seat like before and my quads burned 10x more.
45 Degree Seated Calve Raises/Standing Calf Raises- Did a circuit of 45 degree and standing calve raises today, supersets one right after the other then a 30 second rest then restart. Stretching them to death!
90/60/30 x 6 Circuits, For some reason i wanted to go lighter and do 20+ reps per set + drops. WOW this made a difference, calves on fire and HUGE pump. For a couple minutes i literally had freaky calves! They're without a doubt growing and i hope these higher reps + stretching are that perfect layout. We'll see!
Lying Leg Curls- Since high reps worked so well for my calves i decided to try it with my hamstrings, Worked like a charm.
75 x 10
75 x 12
75 x 18
75 x 26 *PR* +10 Reps
60 x 15
Immediately followed by stretching hams.
Leg Extensions-
300 x 5 *PR*
300 x 18 *PR*
325 x 15 *PR* Rest/Pause
Drop 4x (Forgot weight)
Notes: The drops had my quads on fire, literally had to limp around for a little bit.
The end of my last run I was benching 360, weighed in just over 200 and did it all at a home gym. It's possible. A bench, squat rack and a bow flex (the cheap one) is all I had....I got a small room and a weight set lol.
I workout at home.
Later today when I get back home I'll post a pic lol. Btw that'll be in about 10 hrs lol. My work day starts now. It's 910am here in japan lol.
Dude to be completely honest, you know how i was talking about controlling that "adrenaline rush" before a lift? I seriously think I've got it down, it all is based of your breathing. What i do is look into the mirror and start breathing slowly and pronounced while visualizing the lift already done. Then i think about just doing it and breathing faster and faster. My heart rate rises and i begin to get this feeling of power in my hands that i will DESTROY the bar. Then following that i make sure i'm set up right and hit that lift like my life depends on it, I'm not quiet either, I usually make some sort of noise but I've found it really helps me get past that rep. It's almost like i'm extremely angry but it's controlled and focused towards that 1 extra rep.My god. Amazing workout. Making me wanna hit the weights even harder lol.
If i ever have a home gym it'll be one of those power-racks with an adjustable bench. You can do pull-ups/squats/bench/deadlifts/SOOO much. It's my favorite thing in my gym. Literally you can have yourself secured without having to worry about X amount of weight falling on you and you can attempt that 1 rep that you were contemplating because you didn't want to get stuck. WANT ONE! hahaThe end of my last run I was benching 360, weighed in just over 200 and did it all at a home gym. It's possible. A bench, squat rack and a bow flex (the cheap one) is all I had....
Thanks man! I really enjoy them probably my favorite exercise now. Really challenging! It's helping my hams a ton tooNice rack pulls!
Man if I could get a real squat rack. Haha would be perfect!!If i ever have a home gym it'll be one of those power-racks with an adjustable bench.

I'm surprised there isn't a gym close by you, are you in a rural area or something?Man if I could get a real squat rack. Haha would be perfect!!
I live in japan.I'm surprised there isn't a gym close by you, are you in a rural area or something?
Good point, sucks manI live in japan.
Damn man!! with the PR's!! you're killlling this shiiit!
i think i need to take some notes on your leg work outs..definitely an inspiration for me.
one question about the leg presses..what do you mean plus negative??? excuse my ignorance haha
dude im lovin the fact you're feeling this TestoPro the way you are..im thinkin i gotta run this again
I'm thinking about increasing my strength a bit more. My long cut from may is kinda affecting my strength way more than I thought.
Pretty much for legs i just always try to lift heavier, that goes pretty much for everything i train as well haha. The leg press "negative" means like say i do 10 reps but on the last rep instead of stopping the set, i slowly lower the weight into the middle part of the movement and just hold it there for 10-15 seconds while my quads burn into eternity. (best way i could describe it) No problem!
Me too man, this being my first test-booster i'm extremely satisfied so far. My next log will be DAA which will be amazing as well. I'm really starting to see this 600 x ? rack pull happening this year. Maybe even a 400+lb squat too :sasmokin: Food will be the only limiting factor on this, i'll probably need to be eating a lot more by the time i get to 240+.. Hopefully my appetite will be "full retard" xD
Dude believe me once you increase the cal's it's like immediate glycogen and water replenishment. The first few days depending on how depleted you were dieting i would eat like 4k calories for 1-2 days. Then after that eat how much you need, it's kind of like a cheat day but i swear i felt so much better after 1-2 days of high calories.I'm thinking about increasing my strength a bit more. My long cut from may is kinda affecting my strength way more than I thought.
Might be a recomp with more cals. Hehe.
