Thoughts

- Well, IMO this is my official day back. Squats are definetly down..but I can understand considering I am on a low carb diet and I've been on a layoff. Overall, everything went pretty smooth. One thing I forgot was calves. I will do those tommarow with Chest and abs. Cardio went well. Dave Palumbo recommends at least 30 min of LI cardio on training days..but I was short on time today..so I did MI cardio instead.

Thoughts on ZAP

- I accessed my tolerance over the weekend so I thought I might as well go for full servings. Today..the main thing I noticed was my endurance. I'm not exactly sure if this has to do with ZAP or not. I'm pretty sure Strength gains will come shortly, mainly because my body is on low carbs. Once my body hits that ketosis stage..I think ZAP will really help the strength gains. I was also focused more today. I felt drained after work, but then I popped a serving of ZAP..and it hit me about 20 min. after. More to come...:D :)

Thoughts

- Well..I tried out this new program that I layed out. Looks like I'll be dropping the weight on bench so I can actually complete 8x3. I think 125 will be a good amount. Every 3rd rep with 135 was a major battle. I had nothing left in the tank when it came to the assisstance work. Thats one major flaw of this program while being on low carbs. I think this will test my endurance. I'm pretty caught up in different thoughts as to what I want to do. I am just thinking about winging it and doing what I please. Then, I also want to tweak this program a little to make it suit my needs.

Thoughts?

The diet is going fairly well for the most part. Lack of energy is definetly prominent.

I'll be going in for a deadlift session tommarow(if all goes well).

Thoughts on ZAP
- Again, I feel ZAP is giving me more energy and intensity/endurance. Not much of a difference.

Pricks of The Day

- Great ****en stories today. Stepping up first..THE ****EN SKINNY BASTARDS! These little ****ers (4 of them) came into the gym with there little swole buddy. He was the one guy who was benching 235. These 3 dudes come in and while I'm getting a drink..strip my ****en bar. I came back just in time for them to ask me "You using this?". My reply, "Yeah, I kinda was." They put the weight back on and went over to the next bench. They supersetted Flat and Incline with 75,65 lbs, respectively. After that..all they're little buddies would gang up on they're "swole" partner to watch him bench 235. Then they would say a few curse words and get back to benching. All of them gave me the "staredown" afterwards.

- One of my spotters dropped sweat on my head while I was benching. How pleasant, mutha****er! :mad:

-Friggen SICKKK-

Cardio
- Duration: 10 Min :( (ran short on time)
- Avg. Heart Rate: ~145
- Speed: Varied
- Recumbent Bike

Thoughts: No nonsense training. Lovin It. Very happy that I managed 225x3 because past few weeks..the deadlift has been down due to bad grip and weak workouts.

I have been sweating like a HOG recently. :(

I'm also pissed that I mistrained by working bi's yesterday..and having to work back today. :mad:

Diet: Very Solid.

I havent been taking any Green Mag for the past few days. :eek:

I've had:
-5 scoops Whey (500 cals,120 protein,20 carbs,5 fat)
-8 whole eggs (560 cals,48 protein,36 fat,8 carbs)
-5 tbsp. Pb (500 cals,18 protein,40 fat,15 carbs)
-Couple handfuls of Almonds
-8 oz Chicken + Veggies
-8 oz Beef

-Dont know exact macros for others..but it looks like my carbs are going over. The Whey is killing me. I'm still waiting on my Zero Carb Protein. That will bring down the carb value. The calories are still hovering around the 2.6/2.7k. I think the deficit itself will still help lose weight..even though I probably wont hit ketosis with around ~60 g. carbs a day. But no worries. I'm pretty sure I'll still drop weight.

Sleep: 5-6 hrs + 3 hr. Nap :cool:

Supps:
-5 Scoops Whey
-PW+First Order (Intra)
-ZAP (4 pills Pre)

ZAP: I'm definetly feeling the strength gains. I've also felt more aggresive/angry. :confused:

I'm having a hard time sleeping at night..but I'm not sure if its caused by ZAP.

Again, Libido is UPP!

SLDL
-135x8
-135x8
-135x8
-135x8

Thoughts: Very quick day for me today. Box Squats seem to me as though they are more of a power exercise rather than "the pump" exercise. I hope they bring up my regular back squats. The Leg Press hammered the quads, especially in the teardrop area and SLDL finished things off. No cardio today, I'm exhausted.

Diet: Let the carbs slip a little..and I think cals were low. But it's all good.

I've had:

-4 scoops Whey
-6 whole eggs
-2 tbsp Pb :(
-Couple handfuls of Almonds
-1 footlong sub from Subway (Chicken Teriyaki)

...anyone wanna guess my cals? I have no idea. ~2.5k?

Sleep: 8 hrs.

Supps:
-5 Scoops Whey

These were taken from my journal.
