Summer Cutting begins Pro-Xanthine Compound 20

[TurningGreen]

I have a hard time stimulating muscles with the barbell bench, but DB bench is a different story. I really feel the stretch with DBs as opposed to the bar. Same thing with incline bench. I feel a much better stretch with DBs and even using the smith machine at a 30 degree angle (per Kleen). On the topic of chest...cable crossovers decimate my chest...feels so damn good.

Nice workouts DW. Impressive Front Squats (a few posts back)

Thanks, front squats is one of the few exercises that I can still excell at...

[MrKleen73]

He is a front squat beast. I on the other hand suck at front squats. No matter how I try to do them the bar ends up on my collar bone. Maybe if I can develop the flexibility for the olympic grip I could do better.

Yeah I can't do the olympic either. Hurts like 8 b!thces on a b!tch boat.

I just started doing these again a few weeks ago. I found it is at least tolerable (for me) to basically rest the bar on my front delts and forearms with my arms folded toward the middle with about 4 inches between my hands. I doubt any of you old pro's are gonna get anything from that, but some one else might.

I have no problems with baliance, have it worked out very well...

Saturday I decided to finish up this week and deload. I also an going 3 day split 3 coumpound exercises with the 5/5/5/8/12. I am starting to fall apart so need to get some recovery before I start HST. That is a change in plan to accomodate my peak at the end of July. I am going HST for 6 weeks, Freak month 2 for 4, then muscdle saturation to bing it home. That's a very tough 14 weeks without a break. Thank God for progressive training... That's another reason I need this deload though. I expect my power will start to come back near the end of HST though, and I should be blazing into the Freak!!

I defnitely dropped some fat and water on the weekend, I took pics on Saturday night and I was really holding water and the next day I was showing way more definition. I have definitely noticed a pattern with C20 now. You get really thirsty, hold water then flush so it's a bit of of a roller coaster but it works. I think when I finish I will get a chance to flush out and would have lost more fat than it first appears. I have enogh c20 to run into my next log of 550Xd so I may continue for a bit after this log.

Took my G8 last night, slept like a stone feeling good today. Pro X still has a good stim, been about 5.5 weeks I believe. That's good staying power.

Oh yeah DW you got one hell of a frame to work with. Looking forward to watching you chisel this one down!!

Yah I will gain some lean mass while I go too. In 8 weeks I should be able to take off about 5% more body fat as well..

[MrKleen73]

Got some nice size going on here Doug, legs looking good, arms and shoulders already showing separation, you are at a great starting point and if you respond to XD anything like what Green did then there will definitely be a decent amount of muscle added while stripping the fat.

Thanks, I was extremely watery for those pics, just wolfed down a 20 oz Sirlon, a yam and 3 cups of frozen yogurt, I flushed during the night and the next day I was a different man. Oh well there before pics

Stop degrading yourself, Doug - you may not be where you want to be NOW, but you WILL be! You have somewhere to start from, as we all do. Think ahead to what you want and MAKE IT HAPPEN! I know you can and will!

They seem to be in short supply ...

[MrKleen73]

Yeah I am still waiting on mine too.

[MrKleen73]

Hey Old Fugger! I got you some new posing trunks for the contest.

[ScottyDoc]

Hey DW... I got you a Hoveround, so now you have the freedom to go almost anywhere!!!

I will take it to Atlanta where I can shove it up your azz...



Has to poke the bear this guy...

[DreamWeaver]

Deload started yesterday, I did full body light weight then did some pullups and 13 wheel of death. Finished with 30 minutes high intensity cardio and 5K walk home.

Well I guess everyone heard about the contest. I have to start up next week on something a little more intense. I have some tricks up my sleeve so I will be wrapping this log up at the end of this week. I am going to finish my C20 though so I may be dropping back for updates.

I am seeing continuing changes and seem to be holding on to more size or even gaining a bit.

The Pro X still supplies a pretty good stim...

Did not sleep as much last night on G8 but I have been sleeping very well lately I just woke up very early as I was not really feeling very tired.

[MrKleen73]

Sounds good DW, yeah I think there will be a lot of poking the bear going on... Especially with Al since he has a custom teddy bear with a hole in it to sleep with. He calls it Teddy Tucks In...

Bet he's balls deep in that thing with his thumb in his mouth.

No, but there was this one time I was sleeping at a friend's house and I woke up and could not sleep, so I took his Laura Croft doll to the bathroom and was masturbating to it and his mom walked in and I came all over her!!!

Grandmas boy lol I'm glad you got the reference...oh Laura my co!k is lost in the jungle and it's up to you to find it...BAHAHAHAHA so damn funny.

[DreamWeaver]

Just deload yesterday and some pullups then 20 minutes high intestiy intervals on the precor crosstrainer, trained one of my lady students then 20 minutes HITT intervals on the eliptical... 5k walk home...

Down another pound but people are saying I look much leaner this week. I know I am still holding water though..

[EBF_2356]

What helps with dropping the water?

[LiveToLift]

Late but in bro..

[DreamWeaver]

What helps with dropping the water?

Dandelion Root will do a bang up job and flush using lots of water. I think c20 is making me hold some water as well. I think I have actually lost more fat than 5 lbs. When I am done this I bet there will be a big flushing...

[LiveToLift]

Hey DW... I got you a Hoveround, so now you have the freedom to go almost anywhere!!!

Love it man! Write that number down DW.

[Rosie Chee]

Being leaner is a good thing, Doug. And the water will be easy enough to get rid of (just be careful afterwards, as I'm sure you know and I refound out - biggest rebound ever of my life this last week re water, weight, unwanted girths, and likely some bodyfat - and it's NOT cool)...

What helps with dropping the water?

Natural diuretics like Dandelion Root and Uva Ursi....

~Rosie~

[RickRock13]

I didn't know that about dandelion root....good to know. Doesn't asparagus help get rid of water too?

I agree, asparagus is definitely a diuretic!

Yah not a big fan of Asparagus but sometimes when it's really fresh...

I am out of town and not training this weekend. I started 550xd. Will be back in the gym on Tuesday where I will do 6 weeks of HST

I Love me some Fresh Asparagus especially when it is steamed just right where it is still crisp, but not raw so it is crunchy, but totally chewable and not fibrous, Ymmmm just add a little calorie free butter spray and some tony's seasoning and a tiny dab of lemon juice... Man-U-Feak!

There are several vegetables that can aid in ridding the body of water retention, yes.
