3 weeks in... Things must be good because I just had 2 more bottles of X-gels and 2 more bottles of AlphaMax arrive on my doorstep yesterday.
The X gels where needed to get through the remainder of the run. The AlphaMax I figured I'd just pick up on sale and shelf for a future run.
My performance in the gym has continued to amaze me. I'm wishing I had started a workout log on here because my strength has increased much more then I had expected in such a short time. The pumps have been incredible as well as the stamina.
What was originally intended to be an eight week bulk, has changed to a re-comp, partly by desire and partly by circumstance. I am now in my busiest time of year for work (i'm a contractor/builder) so despite my increased calorie intake, my weight has stayed the exact same. My wife has noticed an increase in lean mass and I am seeing veins that I have not seen in years. Clothes are fitting noticeably different. I am due to go shopping for new jeans as they are are much tighter in the thighs and glutes, while my waist has shrunk a bit. I actually ripped a pair stepping down off a ladder yesterday.
Outside of the gym, things continue to be great. Mood and focus have been on point. The wife is happy, so all is good.
