Day 21

No gym today. I was considering working chest and triceps and taking tomorrow off, but decided against it. My joints are starting to feel pretty rough, particularly my elbows. I suppose the AI aspect of Recycle could have a small part in it, but I really can't be sure. I usually take Super Cissus and have been out of it for about a week so I was expecting the pain to come back at some point. My joints are always in awful shape without it.

I experimented by taking 2 FS XR with just a glass of water this morning. I was curious to see if there would be any changes in gut burn with prolonged use. I waited 35 mins before having breakfast and there were no issues at all. I'll try it again tomorrow to see if I got lucky with today's dose.

I used 5 caps of SLINshot before a 190g carb breakfast. I'm limiting myself to using it once a day for now because with the increased dosage/use over the last week I'm running low. I have more coming, but I don't think it's shipped at this point. Hopefully I'll have it by Wednesday.

My foot is back in decent condition and I'll be having another week of physical workdays and minimal sleep. I'm hoping it will start getting a little easier on my body as I adjust. So far it hasn't effected my gym performance too much.

I managed to get poison ivy all over my arms and legs and it sucks. It gets pretty uncomfortable especially when working up a sweat. I've been wearing pants and sleeves at the gym and trying to ignore it, but the shyt itches like crazy.

Day 22

Only got about 3.5 hours sleep last night...poison ivy on my legs was driving me crazy. Still feel pretty refreshed and got an extra boost from 2 caps of FS XR. I had it with a glass of water for the second day in a row and the gut burn never happened. I could feel a slight warming starting , but nothing bad ever came of it.

I popped 6 SLINshot before a 1700 cal 220g carb breakfast and have no bloat or weighed down feeling whatsoever...muscles are feeling nice and full though. I only have 3 caps left so it looks like I'll be going at least a day without it before the backup arrives. I'm interested to see how I react to a massive breakfast without it.

I should be getting a decent workout throughout the day and burning a bunch of calories. My plan is to work chest and tris tonight in between work. Hopefully my energy holds up and the lack of sleep doesn't minimize any progress. I'm gonna need to make sure I get some more sleep this week so I don't crash and burn halfway through.

[Airborne42]

Looks bro? Any fat gain? Body comp change?

[breezy11]

I forgot to mention I weighed 204lbs this morning. I think I'm holding a little extra weight from yesterday's day off though. If I've gained any fat its minimal because I can't see any. After I drop some water weight I think I'm up close to 3lbs overall. Muscles are looking full and solid and I think I've added a little size to both upper and lower body. I've been adding size consistently for a while now (like 40lbs in a year lol). It will probably start to slow down as I get closer to my previous weight.

[breezy11]

I'll put up a pic of me last June after I got sick when I get a chance

Word bro!

Day 22 continued

Got home from work to see my next round of D-pol had arrived already. I'm still waiting in Recycle and SLINshot, but it should be here in the next couple days.

I had my D-pol, a cap of FS XR, and multi with a sandwich, relaxed for a little while, and just mixed up a scoop of MM in my new Purus shaker (came with D-pol). Now I'm heading to the gym to work chest and tris. I'm pretty tired so I'm counting on the supps for the needed energy to keep the progress moving.

[JoHNnyNuTZ]

Hope you killed that workout buddy.

[breezy11]

It was decent. I made some progress, but not like I have been. I think lack of sleep/work had an impact.

[JoHNnyNuTZ]

At least you got in and smashed it though

Yeah, I'm glad I didn't skip out . Working on the update now.

Day 22 continued

My workout went pretty well. Not huge progress with everything, but some was made. BB flat bench is lagging behind the rest of my lifts in terms of getting back to where I was. I might switch my approach next time around. The gym was packed so I had to swap some planned exercises.

Looking back, I still had good overall progress. I just wasn't "feeling it" like the last week of workouts. I'm need to manage some more sleep, but its going to be tough the next few days. If I can get a solid 5 hours tonight I'll be happy.

[breezy11]

Day 23

I slept about 4 hours last night. Not what I was hoping for, but its a small step in the right direction. At this point I'm not that tired and a couple caps of FS XR are giving me a little extra boost.

I finished up my first bottle of SLINshot this morning. I only had 3 caps with a 200g carb breakfast. I still didn't have any bloat with the smaller dose which is nice. I'm pretty sure I'll receive my SS and Recycle tomorrow. That's good timing because I only have 2 days left of the first round of Recycle as well. I ran out of whey protein today too, and have more on the way. It's gonna a be a struggle getting additional calories while working without it. Hopefully I can come up with enough food to hit my target calories because I'm running low and haven't had time to pick anything up.

At this point I haven't decided if the gym is going to happen today. It's gonna depend on when I get out of work. If today ends up an "off day" I'll be skipping my planned rest on Thursday to make up for it.

Thanks LTL. Yeah my gains have been coming in chunks with some of the lifts this last week. I should probably drop the intensity sometime soon too. I hardly ever do.

Thanks Punja! I noticed we have some similar lifts... but I weigh a lot more. At your weight its much more impressive. My legs have always been pretty strong from hockey. Hopefully I can squat 500 in the next few weeks sometime.

Damn bro I think your turning green ;-)

Haha. I got a little tint to me...
