I noticed a lot of machine work. Is there a specific reason?

Especially the Smith Machine. You can cause a great deal of imbalances and set yourself up for injury.

But the dogs are

Yea, i don't have a training partner, and doing rest paused sets on regular incline bench is difficult with no spotter. I always end my sets on a negative, so the only way to do that without someone there to jerk the weight off me is Smith, or Hammer Strength.

I have added incline DB presses for one of my chest excersises. And will likely add Decline DB, or flat db when i stall out on one of my other chest movements.

What imbalances are you refering too?

Your muscle Stabilizers and Assistors.

In each exercise there are four main functions of the associated muscles, Agonists (prime movers), Antagonists, Stabilizers and Assistors. The Agonists is generally the muscle we are exercising. The Antagonist is the opposing muscle and acts in contrast to the agonist. The Stabilizer muscles are those that hold a joint in place so that the exercise may be performed. The Assistors help the Agonist muscle doing the work.

I feel you though. I haven't had a workout partner for quite some time, and it is hard to find a quality spotter.

Day 13

Not much to note as today is an off day.

Some things i have noticed. It seems i have been getting better quality sleep the last few days. I don't wake up during the night, and i have been having some intense dreams. I am not usually a dreamer, but this seems to have been consistant the last few days.

Will see if it continues.

Other then that i feel good. Mood is great, and i am eager as hell to hit the gym tomorrow.

The drive is the only form of test booster you are taking right? I bet the dreams are from the drive increasing your test.

Yup. I am literally only taking Drive, Neovar, and Orange triad. Usually some poseidion during my workouts. Just added RPM.

But i agree i think it is the drive.

Drive has by far exceeded my expectations. I am addicted to it now.
