Killed the gym today! Update when I get home...


Irish making me nervous!

Love the meal pics. I've been cooking a pound of steak, 2 pounds of chicken, 4 cups brown rice, 1/2 pound red potatoes, asparagus broccoli carrots corn, and bunch of roasted almonds then mix it all together. That is what I have for almost every meal. For maintenance eat till almost full. Bulking - eat more. Cutting - take out the starches. Lol works so well for me. Tonight I am indulging though. Adding a bag of Reeses Pieces. Ahh yeah.

Now that's some muscle food! I've replaced all my supplements with Reeses products, works wonders!

Yeah, I'm cutting so I use Reese minis. On a bulk I use the big cup... Recomp, regular Reese's. You get the picture.

Anyways, I am putting my weight bench together as I type this and my squat rack will be here in a few hours....

Yeah. I can do 90% of my current workout here. All but abs really. Room for deads, rooms for cleans but no press, bench, squat, leg ext, ham curls, adjustable bench for incline decline, preacher curl machine and free weight

Monday Workout went great... I broke it up into two parts. Half at the gym half at home 2 hours later... Loving the freedom of having my own equipment...

I'll update the workout here in a couple of hours and post my workout today...

The mirror is looking pretty good... good cuts in my legs and bottom abs are showing when flexed... happy with the outcome of this stack.

I just workout in my underwear and stare at myself in the mirror frequently. Or I shut the door, throw on some Miley Cyrus and sing very loudly to "Party in the USA".... Try it bro, works EVERYTIME!

Wednesday Workout...

Today's workout was one of the best natural workouts I've ever had. I woke up with some sinus cloggage and I thought "oh ****, another day in the gym wasted"... but I took some mucinex and vitamin C and by mid afternoon I felt normal...

PWO meal: 1400... Protein bar (20g Pro/29g sugar)
PWO supps: 1500... Generic PWO (standard ingredients, nothing worth noting) NO booster (again, standard generic Complete Nutrition Brand), and a 1/2 granola bar 20g carbs

WO: 1515

Started out with "I will do a 7 minute mile jog" then my buddy passed me on my last lap and slapped me on the back and called me lazy... So I couldn't stop then... So I caught up to him and we ran another 1-1.5 miles (not really counting laps) and he decided he wanted to workout with me... I anihilated him today!


BB Flat: 145x15, 185x10, 225x6, 250x2 (last one w light assistance)
DB Pullovers: 70#12x12x12

Cleans: 145x6x6x6 185x1x1 ...
Then I did 145x1 into a set of 6 front squats...twice then 185x1 into six more front squats until I couldn't do anymore...

Deads: 145x12,225x8,315x2,2
Cable Rows: 120x12 140x10, 150x8

Dips: BWx15,12,12,8
Single Arm DB Tris: 35x12x12 30x10 ... started slacking on form so I wanted to make sure I got good form

Standing easy bar curls: 60x8x6x6
Hammer Curls: 30x8x8x8

Weighted Roman Chairs: 70x20 80x15x12
Weighted Side Bends 45x10x10x10 each side

half mile run (4.5 laps) with 20 push ups/10 diamond push ups/25 count flutter kicks in between each lap...

I'm telling you, it is either the fact that I dialed in my diet better or Paragon really kicks in week 4. I felt so great in the gym today. I felt eurphoric. That's not something you get from eating better two days in a row... I think I would run Paragon for 6 weeks if I could and I would probably feel this way for the duration.

Also, I've been sleeping very deep and waking up very refreshed. NMDA works like a champ. I've not had the weird dreams like a lot of people report... I had a few the first couple weeks...very vivid, very weird and sometimes very scary... Once, I shot a dude trying to kidnap my son, banged a few ex-gfs (from like 5 years ago) in a couple and even had one about working out/running one time... weird **** man.

The estrogen inhibitors are working well. Today I felt bloated from all the carbs I had yesterday (wife made spaghetti and I had a big sandwich for my 2nd lunch but other than that, I'm starting to dry out and lean out. The muscles in my legs are really popping and my bottom abs are showing better. I'm really happy where my physique is going. The only thing I've noticed is I'm neglecting shoulders and even though I am, I still have striations in them when flexed and my traps are popping and my back is cut up more than it ever has been. When I weighed 195 my back was huge but not striated like it is now. I'm a lot leaner and my muscle feels a lot more dense. I was on havoc at 195 and retained a lot of water... but I still looked beastly...

That's where I was...


This is where I am now... I think the picture is bad but my wife sucks at taking pics with my phone... she is a semi-pro photographer who makes money off her hobby but she can't take one of my back... makes no sense to me.

Surprisingly not sore today. Recovery is great. Overall ratings this weekend.

[Drizzie88]

Final Review

Strength Increase 8/10... Maintained Strength while losing some fat. Gained muscle IMO. Pics should prove it.

Libido Increase 8/10... Wife said thanks PNI.

Estrogen Inhibitor 9/10... Soreness in the lump under my left nipple deminished and the lump decreased in size. Could be due to losing some BF but also the estrogen inhibitors in PNI had to have helped. Once my labs come back (hopefully next week) I will give you guys the numbers compared to when I was on Endosurge/Erase/DAA. It should give you an idea of where this product stands.

Testosterone Increase 9/10... Flux in acne, aggression, leaning out in the mid section, tighter, fuller muscles, increased deep sleep, overall feeling of well being... Once again, labs will show.

Recovery 7/10... Still stand on the fact that this product isn't meant for recovery as much as, lets say, BCAAs; however, I've noticed a higher rate of recovery even though I am doing a very intense workout compared to normal. I used to do a standard 5 day 1 body part a day style workout but this time around I've increased the cardio and changed to full body EOD (- weekends). I've also incorporated a lot more cardio into the mix and gave myself a lot less time to recover. I'm still not very sore and that's with a carb deficency compared to my normal bulk diet.

Doseage Ease 9/10... I like the fact that it has red pills to distinguish between other supps, I like that it's only three pills a day, but I'm a bit unsure of taking NMDA three times during the day. I liked to take my 3G of Bulk DAA in the morning. It made me feel great all day. This may just be a personal preference/superstition...Does anyone have any insight on breaking up the NMDA into three doses? I've been told it's good to keep the blood levels stable but DAA in the AM has always gave me a euphoric feeling...

Final Review 9/10. It's nothing compared to a PH but I would compare it to a DAA/Endosurge/Erase stack. At less than half the price of all three of those supps, you really get your value out of PNI Paragon. It's like a value pack of hormonal support shoved into one cap. Everything is dosed effectively and there is no "prop blend" to throw the doseages off. It's a legit, very well designed supplement with studies supported compounds for everything it claims it does. I would say PNI is going to be an up and coming threat to a lot of the big name companies on the market.

On another side note, this in PCT should be a no-brainer. It's so expensive for all your supports... You can easily run this on Day 1 with your Serm and see good results. I have a bottle in my supp cabinet just waiting to be used.

I want to thank PNI and HowWeDo for the opportunity to run such an awesome product. I'm sorry the log wasn't more detailed but life kicked my ass this past month. One step forward/one step back kinda events. I hope everyone enjoyed the log.

Once I get the labs back, I will post them up on here...I will also post a reminder in the "PNI Love Thread"...

[Drizzie88]

Here is a picture I took last night. Abs are coming and I look more full than the beginning.

Labs ASAP... Just waiting on the life insurance to send me the documents.
