Day 4 July 5th


Down the shore for the remainder of the week, so I will not have gym access but I will be doing cardio and some bodyweight exercises. Took 2 pills in the AM on an empty stomach and felt a good energy in the morning. No palpitations or anything but I had an extremely dry mouth on my 10 mile bike ride. After my ride, I did a chest/triceps workout with lower ab work too.

5 sets push ups 5 seconds down and 2 seconds up per push up. AMAP

6 inch leg holds as long as possible 5 sets

3 sets close grip push ups AMAP

After this I went for a 20 minute swim doing breast stroke only. This really destroyed my back, I havent felt my lats so sore in ages.

I had a great sweat during my workout and only 2 pills on this day, but I did need to drink a cup of coffee in the PM to get my energy back up.

July 6th and 7th I am off from working out and the fat smack as I will be attending parties etc for the holiday weekend.

Sorry my internet access is spotty here, but normal service will resume tomorrow.

[holmes215]

Cannot wait for this week to start, the holiday weeends messes up my gym routine but I am ready to kill it when I get back.

Day 5

2 caps on an empty stomach and a 15 mile bke ride right after I took the pills down. I had great energy and did not feel sick or anything during the ride besides the occasional acidic feeling in my stomach from the pepper extracts. I had a 3 egg omelet for breakfast and all was good again. I maintained the good energy throughout the day and completed the workout below again since I was still away from home.

5 sets push ups 5 seconds down and 2 seconds up per push up. AMAP

6 inch leg holds as long as possible 5 sets

3 sets close grip push ups AMAP



I had great energy the whole day and no real side effects from the 2 pills. I did notice a drop around 5 pm which I see as a positive, since I was able to get a good quick nap in. Will be running 3 caps during my work days spread out so I can make it through work and my late night gym sessions. I will take weight and other measurements tomorrow.

Day 6

Took 2 caps on empty stomach and ate breakfast 15 minutes after. Had a greater energy and I felt a twitchy feeling in my chest all day. IT wasn't a bad feeling really, just an odd feeling to have all day. This odd feeling I would say is due to the increased adrenal gland release, which I would liken to the moment right before I would make a play during a baseball game. This feeling was extended throughout my day, and it only seems to happen when I am working. Tomorrow I will try spacing out my doses for the day in 3 separate caps separated by 4 hours each to see how I feel. I took a 3rd cap around 3 PM and was running around all night and powered through my workout. I did have issues sleeping though, part of which was due to the fact that it was hot as **** and I have no AC.

workout for the day

Lat pull downs various widths with slow concentric then weighted crunches
5x10 reps and 5x25 reps

behind the head lat pull downs narrow grip with slow concentric coupled with bent over DB rows and weighted crunch machine with slow concentric
5x10, 5x5, and 5x10

Machine neutral grip rows couples with pull ups with slow concentric and DB crunches w/ 30 lbs on yoga ball
4x8, 4x5, and 5x12

BB cheat curls with slow concentric and DB curls with slow concentric
5x5 and 4x5

Have been working slow concentric to really get all the muscle involvement possible and to get a good sweat going. All coupled exercises are done with no rest in between each exercise and 90 secs in between sets.

I felt like I really killed this exercise and was never sitting down trying to get energy for my next set. My high set for the lat pulldowns was 180 lbs which I feel is damn good for slow concentric and is a high for me so far when doing this.

Weight on the day 191.1 LBS

2750 cals eaten
123 gms fat
47 gms saturated
130 gms carbs

249 gms protein



Overall a great day besides besides not being able to sleep. This should not be an issue most other days, I was just a bit wired from worrying about things.

Practice everyday fully clothed it will take time to get better, give it about a month other then that trying cutting down your body weight.

Get bite by a genetically altered fish and profit homie

[AaronJP1]

Not passing this test can cost me the job of a life time.
Going to have to figure something out.

[Gerbil]

What stroke do you have to do? Combat divers, breast or freestyle?

Any doesn't matter, but I never really swam before. I made it 25 yards going back is hard...

[Gerbil]

Is it distance or treading water?

Depends, I can't do a regular stroke swim very long anymore, I just sink, but my breast stroke is nice. Breast stroke is great for the back and delts too, you'll be sore as heck the next day.

Day 6

Took 1 cap on empty stomach and ate breakfast 15 minutes after. Had a greater energy and no twitchy feel during the day. I took subsequent caps at noon and 4 PM. I noticed a small dip in energy before taking each subsequent cap but no significant drop off where I felt sleepy or lethargic. I took a scoop of ON amino energy along with my creatine pre-workout, which was a bit over the top because I was not able to sleep at night for about 2 hours after I went to bed. From now on, no amino energy pre-workout as I shouldn't need it anyway. I really love 1 capy every four hours or so as I don't get jittery at all but I do have the type of energy to kill a workout.

workout for the day

1 mile run in 7:30 to warm up

machine pec flys slow concentric and DB lateral raises with slow concentric
5x10 and 5x10

I did this first to pre-exhaust my pecs as my tri's always wear out way earlier than my chest and shoulders on a normal workout

DB bench press with slow concentric and 2 sec hold at bottom with 6 inches
5x10 and hold for 2 mins, hold for 1:30, hold for 1:15 and hold for 1:15

incline BP slow concentric 2 sec hold at bottom with hanging leg raise and holds
4x10 and 4 by as long as possible

triceps pushdown slow concentric and close grip BP
4x10 and 4x8

Think u got any weight or bodyfat loss after the 1st week?
U may not see much change until week 2 or 3.

I would say I have not yet but that is most likely because these 6 days were separated by a few off days that I normally would not. By about day 12 I am hoping to see something because I plan only 1 off day before then.

[holmes215]

Day 7

Once again did 3 caps each separated by 4 hours after waking up. I had terrible stomach pains and the runs this morning, but I doubt it was due to the Fat smack. My energy all day was amazing besides the occasional bout of chocolate rain. I was not quite bouncing off the walls all day but I felt focused and ready to do anything. I do not have a detailed food log but I stayed around 28-2900 kcals on the day. I had a leg workout that was a bit brief because I had work business to attend to later than usual, but the Fat Smack let me kill my workout even though I hate doing legs due to my fractured back. The energy I had was amazing during my workout and I was able to do my triset of squats, DB deadlifts and leg extensions in a row for 5 sets without any rest between the individual lifts. I got done at 10 PM and felt like I could lift for days. Luckily, I was able to sleep better in the cooler temperature at night. I still am having issues getting the continuous 7+ hours sleep I would like but it is getting better.


work out

squats with DB dead lifts then leg extensions
5x15, 5x10 and 5x10 slow concentric

BB shrug then wall sits then hamstring curls
4x10, 30 secs, and 4x10 all slow concentric

forearm curls
90 lbs AMAP 4 sets

[holmes215]

Day 8

3 caps total, each separated by 4 hours. What I have noticed over the past few days is that 1 cap gives about 4 hours of clean energy with no jitters or anything. Beyond 4 hours, energy starts to fall off and another boost is needed. I have started taking small doses of ON Amino Energy preworkout to give a small boost as the week has really worn me out. I did have terrible runs again, but I do not think it is related at all, I just had some old food for a few meals. I haven't noticed any fat losses as of yet and may dose 2 pills in the AM soon again. I haven't noticed increased sweating like others while working out either, and I did try 1 pill preworkout, with only a dry mouth to speak of. I did have a slight increased respiration rate, but no increase in sweating.

Weight will be taken tomorrow
