Green Going Lean with New Protocols and Finaflex Epi-V

[TurningGreen]

Day 9

Stepped up my calories today hitting around 1800 with good macros. I will begin my quest for more calories when I get to Sam's Club (just got a membership). Buying meat in bulk is going to be my savior! Still feeling awesome, tons of energy, no sides...all business. Dosed 2 Epi-V at 0600hr and 1545hr and 1 PCT Black pre-bedtime.

Nutrition:

I am still following the Paleo Protocol and will soon be converting to a hybrid Paleo/Lean Gains Protocol. Basically I will be doing IF with Paleo food choices. "Meal of the Day" Fajita Chicken with homemade Pico Salsa.



Training:

I got in a 3.2 mile run outside. The terrain was quite riddled with hills which was not very fun, but I got it done with out problems. I also trained shoulders a few hours later.

DB Shoulder Press: 4 sets 45lb x 10

Kettle Bell Lateral Raise: 4 sets 25lb x1 0

Upright Row: 4 sets 65lb x 10

Kettle Bell Crossover Swing: 4 sets 25lb x 10

DB Shrugs: 4 sets 80lb x 10

I would have liked to do more, but I went so late and the gym was getting ready to close. I need one of those fancy 24 hour gyms!

In my opinion mixing paleo with LG makes perfect sense as you are mixing what primitive man ate with how he ate, fast and gorge that's where it's at for endo's ...

Interesting...

[ScottyDoc]

Wow... Chicken and home-made Salsa??? that looks amazing... and the "Food-Porn" begins!!!

Day 10

The Alpha Male has kicked in! I hit the gym today to train back and like a switch I felt like I had to dominate the gym. I didn't lift super heavy, but my intensity and focus were unmatched by anybody there...beast mode! I had a bit of a headache later on today not too sure why. Nutrition is on point and I am seeing a major difference in physique...which is awesome for day 9. I promise pictures by Monday (which will mark 2 weeks in). Dosed 2 Epi-V at 0600hr and 1545hr and 1 PCT Black pre-bedtime.

Nutrition:

I am currently using the Paleo Protocol. I am getting my calories up which is good. I plan to make a jump to the LG/Paleo hybrid on monday after a trip to Sam's club to stock up on necessities.

Training:

Hammer Grip Pull Up: 3 sets BW x 10

Reverse Grip Pull Down: 3 sets 70lb x 10 Reps were really slow and focused

Cable T-Bar Row: 3 sets 85lb x 10 Reps were really slow and focused

Straight Leg Deads: 3 sets 135lb x 10 squeezing every muscle to move the weight (I actually got slightly winded from these)

Straight Arm Pull Down: 7 sets 60lb x 10 FST-7 30 seconds between sets

Treadmill: Walked at 3.0 mph for 2 minutes at inclines 10-0 (total of 20 minutes)

[AaronJP1]

I'm going to have to try Epi-V eventually.

I'm going to have to try Epi-V eventually.

Yeah man, this is quite possibly one of my favorite supplements of all time.

Day 11

On the road again, this time to see Clemson play in SC. I am seeing a weekend of temptation ahead of me, but I don't foresee any difficulty resisting. Felt great today. I have noticed that my muscle have noticeably hardened since the start of the cycle. There won't be much going on in terms of training this weekend, but I think a couple of rest days will do me good. I will have progress picture up Monday marking the end if week 2.

Thanks bro, shredding it down one day at a time.

Day 12

It was a definite challenge today staying away from the tailgate foods, but I managed. I made 6lbs of paleo chicken nuggets (coated in egg and almond flour then baked). I think I ate about half of them myself. I didn't I get to the gym unfortunately. I'll be glad to be home and back on schedule once again. I am still getting great results from the Epi-V. I have a busy week coming up full of school related obligations and appointments. I am going to do my best to keep up with training even if it means going to the gym at inconvenient times.

Day 13

Well...another day on the road, driving about five hours. I am looking forward to a weekend of just being home and dead on my schedule. I did pretty well this weekend, and I am looking forward to getting back into the gym. Hopefully I can get in a lift tomorrow...after our damn open house which last until 7:30 ughhh, its going to be a long day. I will be getting some new ink on Tuesday, I am hoping I dont get to beat up under the needles so I can keep on training. Dosed 2 Epi-V at 0600hr and 1545hr and 1 PCT Black pre-bedtime.

Nutriton: We finally made it to Sam's club...putting in another 45 minute drive after the five we already drove, but it was worth it. Progress is evident so I will continue on with this protocol adding in extra calories to meet my nutritional needs. The steaks (Sirloin Tip) below are about 16oz. each...got 4 of them for $15 you just cant go wrong!



Training: I wanted to go to the gym so bad, but it closes at five and we had to get groceries...sacrifices were made. I am feeling and looking a lot better. I will have pictures up tomorrow.

[packers6211]

Oh snap bro one of those steaks mine right? haha looks good

Day 14

It was one long A$$ day! Had open hose at my school today so I was there from 0645hr until 1915hr, then straight to the gym. Thankfully the Epi-V kept me going and motivated. Nutrition was spot on, and I finally got some training in after a long weekend of "resting". I took pictures tonight, but they are very washed out so I am going to try to get some with natural light...which has been hard to do since we are so damn busy. I wont even bother posting the ones I took they just look really flat, and honestly Im just to damn tired to mess with the camera (piece o crap). Dosed 2 Epi-V at 0600hr and 1545hr and 1 PCT Black pre-bedtime.

Nutrition: I went longer than I wanted today without food, but I managed to get in some decent calories. "Meal of the Day" Cajun Talpia with mixed vegetables and Avocado along with a "paleo pesto" (almonds, cilantro, garlic, olive oil, and spices)...Fuggin Awesome!



Training:

Triceps Rope Push Down: 7 sets 100lb x 10

Close Grip Bench: 3 sets 135lb x 10 (perfect)

Laying DB Triceps Extension: 3 sets 30lb x 10

Standing Triceps Extension on Barbell: 3 sets BW x 10

Barbell Biceps Curl: 7 sets 70lb x 10 (ultra biceps pump)

Hammer Curl: 3 sets 25 x 10 (the perfect burn)

Preacher Curl: 3 sets 35 x 10 (way to light)

Cable Biceps High Pull: 3 sets 30lb x 10
