What up everyone.


I'm mpaquett and getting started on a recomp. The will be the "heaviest" stack I've ever run.




Current stats: 5'10 and 185lbs

Lifts:
bench- 315lbs
deads- 315lbs x5
squats- 275lbs x3




Little history from this year....









Back in Feb before I started cutting I was 220lbs and setting some solid PR's before starting to cut the end of Feb/beginning of March. In May when I was out riding my CBR (RIP) I was struck by a food truck as I was going about 60mph down the highway. I flew over the handlebars and came down about 25ft from where the bike and truck connected. When I landed I'm assuming I came down on my right knee, because that's what sustained the most damage, but it all happened to quick to know for sure. After having an xray and then later an MRI on my knee I discovered that I'd been walking around for a week on a fractured femur and tibia (oops). I was put on crutches for 4 weeks by an Orthopedic doctor, but my right ACL didn't fully recover. It's not bugging me as much now (lot of self-rehab) though, and my lifts have steadily been going up. So now I've decided it's time to start making some solid gains again.



The stack....













Weeks 1-8 PR-XT
Weeks 2-9 Na DAA
Weeks 3-10 Nolvadren XT


*I'll be throwing in the forskolin a few days after the DAA, so I can better judge any issues that may arise. Also, I am dosing 15mg Y HCL + 200mg caffeine upon waking.​




My macros and will be ~3,000kcal on days I lift, and ~2,500kcals on "off" days. I will be following an "IF" protocol (intermittent fasting).

Lift days will be- 289P / 232C / 104F
"Off" days are- 280P / 160C / 87F


Current split is typically chest & tris; back & bis; delts and lastly legs.


*Other things will be utilized on a daily basis including Orange Triad, Oximega fish oil, Universal creapure/Orotine.

*Other supps will be listed as utilized (pres and etc).

Spent 15 hours fasted before eating today. Diet is still needing some tweaking. Ate a total of 3 meals today dosing 2 PR-XT caps before each meal.



Hit some back and bi's tonight

pre work out- 3/4 scp Blue Bombsicle Gameday + 1 scp OG Body Octane and + 3 iForce potassium nitrate caps

body weight chins- wide grip x20, reverse grip x15, close grip x15
bent over barbell rows- 135 x15, 185 x10 225 x6
dead lifts- 225 x5, 275 x5, 315 x5, 365 x3
seated row machine- 130 x10, 10, 12 (alternating grips)
lat pulldown underhand grip- 180 x10, 10
lat pulldown behind the neck- 105 x10, 10
low back extension- 125 x10, 10, 10
bent over straight arm push downs- 120 x10, 10, 10
barbell curls- 45 x15, 65 x12, 85 x8
alt curls- 50 x5, 5, 5
hammer curls- 30 x15, 35 x12
concentration curls- 25 x10, 8, 10
-superset of 3 sets of forearm exercises



Not sure how I want to format my work outs yet. Haven't ran a log for a while. The italicized portions were focusing on contractions.

Was feeling pretty good about the work out. Great pumps, endurance and vascularity. I'm sure my back will be feeling it tomorrow. Went in only knowing I was hitting back tonight. I started feeling the deads during my last set of BB rows. It's been probably a month and a half at least since I've done full range deadlifts; so getting 198% of my body weight for 3 reps wasn't a disappointment.


Got home and had 2 chicken breasts, 1/2lbs of beef in a whole wheat tortilla shell and a pack of peanut butter poptarts to finish out my calories for the day as my post work out meal.

DAY 5 of PR-XT and looking forward to starting the Na DAA on Monday


Smashed some shoulders tonight..

3/4 scp Blue Bombsicle Gameday + 1 OG Body Octane + 3 potassium nitrate caps

military press- 95 x10 slow controlled reps for warm up; 135 x5, 155 x1, 185 x3, 3, 3; drop set 135 x5; drop set 95 x10
dumbbell lateral raise- 25's x12, 12, 10
dumbbell front raise- 30's x12, 12, 10 super-set db shrugs for 15 reps (same dumbbells)
pec deck rear delt- 90 x12, 105 x10, 120 x8
barbell shrug- 135 x25, 185 x20, 225 x15



Frigginnnnn' sick trap vascularity during the shrugs. Wasn't thinking tonight was going to go very well, because I'd had a longgg day starting before 6am this morning, but repping my body weight on military presses wasn't disappointing in the least. Had good energy, muscle fullness and vascularity throughout the entire work out. Overall pretty satisfied with the work out. Volume wasn't bad. Weights weren't to disappointing. The gym was freaking packed tonight though for some reason.

This sucks friggin' ****.....




Soooooo amped up for a heavy-high volume leg day, and as I started warming up I remembered I have to run a 5k for class tomorrow morning. So now I'm doing an arm work out.

Unintentional Arm Day

Pre- 3/4 scoop Gameday + 1 scoop OG Body Octane + 3 kno3 caps

warm up- 5 mins stepmill
close grip bench- 135 x15, 185 x10, 205 x8, 225 x3 drop set 135 x8 (focusing on eccentric movement and explosive concentric)
barbell curls- 45 x15, 95 x5, 5, 5 drop set 45 x8 (focusing on eccentric movement and explosive concentric)
dip machine- 270 x10, 290 x8, 310 x6
db hammer curls- 50's x10, 60's x8, 65's x6
seated db skull crushers- 50 x12, 60 x10, 65 x8
db alternating curls- 25's x12, 10 drop set20's x12
straight bar push downs- 70 x15, 15 (very fluid and controlled movement)


Sipping on 2 scoop of PF3 and a scoop of leucine during the beginning of the work out. For having my mindset completely destroyed wasn't all to bad really. Not what I wanted of course, but I'll settle with it. I'll just have to kill some legs later in the week.


Starting the Na Daa tomorrow. This will be my first time with bulk daa, so I'm interested to see how it'll go. My only previous experience was with Prometheus Rising, which is one of my top 3 favorite supps, and I'd ran 3 bottles of that. Not sure when I'll plug the forskolin in year; probably Thursday or Friday and then Nolvadren at 2 caps a day next Monday.

Woke up this morning immediately feeling that 5k from yesterday morning.... Stabbing pain in my right knee. I barely ever wear the brace that was given to me, but it's one of the first things I grabbed this morning. Second mistake was not eating like I typically would on a lift day. I only had about 185g of carbs, and my work out tonight paid the price.


pre- 1/2 scp Gameday + 1 scp BO + 3 kno3 caps


pull ups w/ 40lbs DB- 8, 10, 10, 10
barbell rows (varying width of grip)- 135 x15, 15, 15, 12
hammer strength low row- 180 x10, 10, 8
cable row- 180 x10, 10, 10
reverse grip lat pulldown- 135 x10, 10, 10
romanian chair low back extension- 15, 15, 15

barbell row- 45 x25
hammer curls- 35's x15
concentration curls- 25's x10
reverse grip barbell curl- 45 x15
forearm curls- 45 x15



I woke up this morning feeling/looking pretty lean, but I also fasted for a total of 19 hours so that probably didn't help the situation. Felt flat and lethargic tonight so I mainly focused on contractions.



So far so good with the daa powder. Looking forward to adding in the Nolvadren XT next week for the full effect of the stack. It's only been a week so far, but I can tell I've leaned out a little already. Now to just get my glycogen levels replenished and kill it during my next work out...

Mucchhhh better today...

Weighed in at 185lbs this morning. I feel like I look a little leaner, but weight hasn't changed much. Had a long day, but I was really ready to get a good lift in tonight. Hit some heavy shoulders. I would've liked to have had a little higher volume but I was meeting some buddies downtown.

Delts

Pre- typical dose of GD, BO and kno3

Seated barbell shoulder press- 45 x15, 135 x8, 185 x4,4 195 x2
Db lateral raise- 35's x10, 40's x8, 45's x6
Db front raise- 45's x8, 50's x6 55's x4
Seated rear delt raise- 30's x15, 12, 10
Shrug machine- 90 x15, 15, 15
Upright bb row- 45 x15


Felt pretty good about the work out. The shrugs and upright rows were thrown in pretty much just because. Lol Delts were looking pretty full and hard anyways.

I only have 1-2 servings left of my Blue Bombsicle GD left and then I'm anxiously going to crack open my tub of Tigers Blood Gameday. I'm waiting to start forskolin on Saturday at 2 caps a day (50mg) to start and then may increase dose later. DAA gave me a little issue today, but not to bad. Yesterday I just took a scoop on it's own and washed it down with water. From now on I'll probably continue to take with a carb meal.

Leg day-

Pre- 3/4 scoop Gameday + 1 scoop OG Body Octane

Intra- 2 scps of PF3 + 1 scp Fermented Leucine

warm up- leg extensions 30lbs x15, 15, 15
squats- 135 x15, 185 x10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

calf press on leg press- 20 plates x15, 15, 15
seated calf raise- 1 plate x15, 2 plates x15, 3 plates x12

5 minutes of static stretching

Fuhhhh..... I started training a little before 6pm having been fasted since 1030pm the night before.

Each set of squats with the 185lbs I took less time in between sets to where on the last couple sets I didn't stop touching the bar. Each set was hams to heels (below parallel). Knee wasn't exactly happy with them, but it held out alright. All of the bolded sets were done with the entire stack. Not feeling to bad about the weights or the volume. Now it's time to eat... finally!

Had a short chest day today.

Pre- 3 scps Conquer + 3 kno3 caps + 1 scp Body Octane

Incline bb bench- 135 x15, 185 x10, 205 x6, 225 x3
chest press machine- 225 x10, 10, 10
decline bb emphasis eccentric contraction- 135 x10, 8, 8
pec deck- 135 x12, 10, 10

Pretty busy day overall, which I hadn't planned on, and I was barely able to fit it in. Not a bad work out for as rushed as it was. I would've liked to have been able to do some more volume, but just didn't have the time. Now I'm just waiting for my Ol' Lady to get in from her flight back from Washington DC to go pick her up.

RECAP
Today is the end of week two and everything seems to be going well so far. Strength levels are maintaining really well. I'm not feeling sluggish at all. I seem to be waking up looking harder each morning. Slowly getting some more definition in my upper/mid abdomen, which is where I store the bulk of my subcutaneous fat (not evenly dispersed in the least).

I dosed 1 cap of the AS forskolin yesterday, and then I did 2 caps this morning with EC as soon as I woke up. I'll continue on with 2 caps for the rest of this week, and then probably bump it up to 3 caps starting next Monday. I'm starting the Nolvadren XT tomorrow morning at 2 caps a day. I've ran Nxt twice before once at 2 caps and once at 3 caps a day. 3 caps seemed to be a little overkill and I actually seemed to not respond quite as well as the first time. I've switched from YC to EC for a bit until I get a little more fat off, and then I'll switch back to predominantly YC.

Dosing as of tomorrow
upon waking - EC + 2 caps AS forskolin + 2 caps Nolvadren
first meal - 3g Na DAA
PR-XT is split up 2 caps with a meal 3x a day

Back & Bis whaadddduuupppp


Pre- 2 caps AppNut Uncut



Chins alt grips- body weight x15, 15, 15
deads- 135 x10, 225 x3, 315 x3, 365 x2, 405 x1
hammer strength low row- 230 x10, 250 x8, 270 x6
cable row controlled reps- 180 x10, 10, 10
lat pull down (alt grips)- 150 x10, 10, 10, 10
straight arm push downs- 120 x10, 10, 10
barbell curls (alt widths)- 45 x15, 65 x10, 75 x8 85 x6
hammer curls- 30's x15, 35's x12, 40's x10
concentration curls- 25 x8, 8, 8
super set of 4 different forearm exercises till failure


I was already pretty amped up to be able to lift tonight and probably didn't even need a pre, but I've been wanting to try out this bottle of Uncut from AppNut. I took a cap of Uncut walking out of class, but then decided to take another cap as I was walking out of the house. Stayed focused and energized through the entire work out. Not jittery at all just a very smooth settle amount of energy. The only downside to taking Uncut solo was I noticed a decrease in endurance (and less vascularity), but I've also been all hopped up on Body Octane and nitrates lately ontop of my EC, Gameday and etc; so a little decrease in endurance was expected.

Pretty stoked about getting the 405 on deads. It's the first time I've pulled it since the accident. My acute muscle soreness/DOMS was so bad from Saturday's leg day that yesterday I was wearing my knee brace, and today it was still just a little sore from a touch. I had no intention of deadlifts until I was headed to the gym tonight.


Everything seems to be going smoothly so far, so I'm hoping it keeps up!

Didn't weigh this morning since I didn't have a scale, but took a waist measurement and my waist is down 1/4th" in the last week. So I'm gonna go a head and keep doing what I'm doing! Lol



Wanting to start incorporating a little bit of cardio in, but not sure when or how yet.

Delts

pre- 3 caps Uncut

intra- 1 scp Fermented Leucine + 5g creapure + 2 scps Compete

Warm up- 5 mins step mill

Seated barbell shoulder press- 45 x15, 135 x10, 185 x2, 195 x1, 205 x2
Incline bb bench- 135 x15, 9, 8
Db lateral raise- 30's x12, 35's x10, 40's x8
Db front raise- 30's x15, 35's x12, 40's x10
Bent over rear delt raise- 30's x15, 35's x15, 40's x15
Bb shrug- 135 x15, 185 x15, 225 x15

Felt pretty good. Was completely zoned in and ready to go. I knew exactly what I wanted out of the work out, and that was 205 on shoulder press. My biggest goal right now outside of just getting back to where I was is that I wanna be able to rep 225 on shoulder press. I actually used a spot for the 205, so that little bit of confidence helped a lot. Pretty satisfied with the volume over all.

Last night quick leg day

pre- 3 caps Uncut

intra- 2.5 scps Compete + 5g creapure

warm up- 5 mins step mill + 2 sets light leg extensions

squats- 135x 15, 185 x12, 225 x10, 275 x8, 315 x5
leg extension- 105 x15, 120 x15, 135 x15, 150 x15
stiff leg deads- 225 x5, 275 x3, 3
1 leg kneeling leg curl- 40 x15, 50 x15, 60 x12
seated calf raise- 180 x15, 15
standing calf raise- 75 x25, 25


I'd spent about 18 hours fasted before lifting. That was the best I've gotten 315 in a while. I was only going to parallel on the squats compared to the as low was I can mechanically go I usually do. Going to parallel is awkward to me for some reason and I have to really change my stance around, so I'd rather just go to having my hams touch my heals. The stiff leg deads have been getting to me the last couple of times I've done them. I just haven't been able to get to where I can really feel the "pull" on my hams I use to fill. I think I need to switch to some dumbbells for a while.

Overall not a bad work out I was somewhat rushed having just gotten off of work, and having a costume party to attend. The Uncut gives a great amount of energy and focus without stimming me out. It's the first capped pre I've ever had and it gives me a convenience factor compared to coming home to get a scoop of this and a scoop of that. I've got 3 kno3 caps left and then some Max Pump, which is also capped nitrates, and I'm interested to try a full capped pre on nights that I'm on the go; but I wanted to try Uncut on it's own so I'd be able to better judge the effects.

Yesterday I started dosing 100mg of AS Forksolin, and I'll stay this way for the rest of the stack. Right now I'm using EC and breaking up the dose 50/50mg with a dose of EC.



Chest day 11/3/13

Pre- 3/4 scp Tigers Blood Gameday + 1 scp OG Body Octane


intra- 2 scps Compete + 5g creapure + 4g Fermented Leucine

warm up- 5 mins on step mill
bench- 135 x15, 225 x5, 275 x1, 315 x1, 185 x10, 135 x15
hammer strength decline- 270 x10, 320 x6, 360 x1
hammer strength incline- 230 x5, 5, 5, 5, 5
seated cable fly- 40 x15, 50 x12, 60 x10
decline cable fly- 30 (each) x15, 40 x15, 50 x15
close-grip bench- 135 x10, 8, 8
seated db skull crushers- 55 x12, 60 x10, 65 x10
1 arm db kick backs- 30 x10, 10, 8
1 arm cable push downs- 50 x10, 9, 8


I was sooo ready to go today. I feel like I hadn't gotten a good chest work out for a while. I was hoping for 315 x2 on bench, but I was only able to get it about 1/3rd of the way up. When I got up this morning I weighed in at 184lbs. So I'm down a total of a pound, but I'm looking fuller and a noticeable increase in vascularity and striations especially across my shoulders and chest.


That Tigers Blood was friggin' delicious. I mixed it separately from the Body Octane so I could really get a taste for it. It's going to be awesome mixed with the BO.

So far so good with everything. I've been dosing EC upon waking with 50mg forskolin (2caps) and 2 caps Nolvadren XT. Then I'll take EC + 50mg forskolin again 4-6 hours later.

I'm thinking I'm going to switch out one of the EC for YC (15mg YHCL + 200-250mg C).

I think my body is adjusted to the daa and forskolin. Haven't had any sort of GI issues the last few days. I'm really itching to get in the gym.

I've taken both together in the past, but I don't like to anymore. I however did that yesterday morning taking 2 caps of Uncut and a Bronkaid, but I don't plan on doing that much. I was starting a new job and wasn't allowed to sleep a lot the night before.

Yohimbine has a short enough halflife that taking it with EC doesn't ever bug me taking them +4 hours later.

Measured my waist again today for the first time since 10/23. Surprisingly my waist was down a full inch. My waist is finally back under 30" at 29.5" at 183.4-184lbs currently.

My "before" picture was terrible and at a terrible angle, however I will eventually probably post some before and after pics up. Almost done with my first bottle of PR-XT I believe the last day should be Sunday for this bottle. That means I'm not even halfway through the stack yet, and having some very favorable effects; strength is up, body composition is noticeably changed and all GI issues seemed to have past.

I have 3 caps of iForce kno3 left, and then I've got a bottle of Max Pump I'm going to tap into. I'm thinking Uncut + Max Pump will be an epic on the go pre.
I haven't gotten to try uncut yet but looks like it's great stuff. How did you like the kno3?

Noticeably better endurance. Gameday + Body Octane + kno3 is the best thing I've used for a pre. Interested to see how the Max Pump stands up to the kno3. It'll be my first experience with Finaflex.

Recap
Haven't slept much the last couple of days. Only about 5 hours last night, and less the two nights before trying to prepare for my Exercise Physiology test. Diet has also been off from lack of time/not fixing food. Worked 8am-6pm today before hand, so I knew going in it wasn't going to be a great work out.


Even though I felt very depleted I had some pretty good pumps and vascularity going on. Especially during the shrugs. I was so tired my eyes were actually starting to water during the last two sets. Home now and trying to get filled back up, and hopefully get a good work out in tomorrow.



Snapped a progress pic earlier, pre work out so no transient hypertrophy, but you can definitely see a snake of a vein showing in my trap. lol Fairly "flat", due to glycogen depletion, and "soft" from having not lifted since last Sunday.

Gameday is top notch, throw in some Max Pump for some huuuge pumps.

Whelp..... The intention was to get a leg day today, but I managed to get thrown by my motorcycle last night and got some nasty road rash on both of my knees. So they were both pretty stiff today. I decided to do some back instead and just took it easy.

RECAP
Not a bad work out, but not what I would've been hoping for 24 hours previously. My afternoon class was cancelled so I was able to sneak one a work out in then when I usually just have to go home and get ready for work. Mainly just went for contractions with shorter rest periods and slower eccentric motions. The pre-work out stack is pretty sick. Hopefully will be hitting some chest tomorrow night after my night class and I'll be dosing 3 Uncut + 2 MAX PUMP + 1-2 agmatine caps as an "on the go" pre work out stack.

Uncut is pretty nice. I've had a bad head cold the last few days and haven't been able to lift since Friday, but I guess that's better than a bike mishap!

Smh... I was so pissed. I never even seen it coming. lol Immediately stood up, picked the bike up and then pushed it to the side of the road.

Lol... Yes, but it wasn't really my fault. I was pulling out of an alley just taking off and the combination of cold tires + cold street + some loose gravel and some leaves kicked the back tire out and threw me. The bike ended up completely sideways in the lane a couple of feet away. I just picked it up and pushed it straight into a driveway.

Recap
I spent 22 hours fasted before training today. I wasn't able to get a lot of sleep last night since I had to work early. The combination didn't result in as good of a work out as I would have liked. I mentally had the alertness from the Uncut, but I was having problems getting the energy to really get going. I use to always warm up with 185, but took it down to 135 probably after the accident in May. I felt like a small pop in my left pec during the first set of bench and it lasted through the entire work out. On top of that both of my shoulders were popping and feeling pretty sore by the time I finished chest. I'm going to contribute that to a lot of things; including but not limited too low water intake, having not taking Orange Triad in a couple of days, not having taken cissus in a few days and lack of sleep. I'd also be lying if I said having been in the motorcycle wreck a couple of days ago didn't play into it also.


Taking tomorrow off to let my body rest up and heal up. Been putting some thought into it and hopefully will get some downtime to do a mid-log review on everything here shortly. There are definite changes in my composition, and even my girlfriend that sees me on nearly a daily basis can tell and mentions it frequently. For the most part still feeling strong. Just got to get back in the groove from last week throwing me off.

Lastly, I got a bottle of SNS Glycophase in today that I will be adding into my stack shortly (next couple of days). I'll be dosing one pre-bed and then another probably pre work out.

Good numbers bro, even feeling like crap. Don't worry about it, rest up and keep at it.
