Tuesday did shoulders ate a bigger meal this day and had a lot of sodium so I was a little bloated but had a good day for the most part.
Shoulders
Weighted warm ups (10lb plates in positions that will be made throughout my workout)
Started off with front/side raises 5x12 I like feeling the burn
reverse flies 4x10 I do this movement slowly and squeeze at then end this works best for me
upright row 3x12 none of that jumping and pulling its all one movement from start to finish feeling the pump
Single arm rows 4x8 these really get you feeling that (pump) everyone loves
Military press standing 4x10 (medium weight)
Military press sitting 5x8 (heavy)
Finally I finish off with DB shrugs heavy 4x10 and rotator cuff work.

 

[vanbeast73]

How's it been treatin ya?

It's been good man feeling great just a lil back pumps but that's normal with M-sten the 4-AD seems to be helping with that not sure if that's the case or me but it's helping in my opinion what about you man?

 

[niners4reggie]

Nice work!!

 

[vanbeast73]

Wednesday low sodium high protein/carb meals all day feeling an increase in blood flow (feeling warm/hot all day) I love this feeling to me it means good things are coming
Wednesday- back and bi's
Deadlift- 3x6
Bent-Over Barbell Row- 3x8
Wide Grip Pulldowns- 2x10
Close Grip Pulldowns- 2x12
Wide Grip Pull Ups- 3x failure

I eat Big Carbs/Protein within 30 minutes of training. I just started to use Creatine, so carbs/creatine right after workout, then protein 30-45 mins later. (Anabolic window is bigger than most people think) on a side note starting to get back pups but not sure yet because it was back day lol

 

[wicked442]

Hey man. I'm running the same cycle you are. I started my Msten lower,but now in week 2 at 20mg the back pumps are worse.

 

[vanbeast73]

Nice work!!

Thanks man I just need to catch up Internet and cell service has been down due to crazy winds and thunderstorms so I'm trying but thanks

 

[vanbeast73]

Hey man. I'm running the same cycle you are. I started my Msten lower,but now in week 2 at 20mg the back pumps are worse.

Yea this is my second cycle of it man I love the size/strength gains and like I said the 4-AD is helping man a lot that and try to eat less sodium it seems to make it flair more but thanks for the heads up man

 

[niners4reggie]

I must've gotten lucky. I didn't have any back pumps with 20mg. Actually the cycle I'm on now has been the first time I've had them. Going to up my taurine to 5g to see if that helps.
