KLEEN's Quest for PRIME! A transformation contest log.

[MrKleen73]

I have tossed my hat into the ring in the Transformers... The Quest for PRIME thread and this will be my log to kind of track my progress and training during that run. It is an 8 week transformation challenge between myself, DreamWeaver, ScottyDoc, LivetoLift, and TurningGreen.

The contest is for 8 weeks as I said above and it is an anything goes contest so most all of us will be on some sort of anabolic whether it be a PH, DS, Peptides, or AAS. No one is required to use full disclosure on everything they are taking to achieve the goals since some of us have families and it isn't considered the best idea posting that info up.

To let you all in on what is going on I am running FinaFlex EPI-V, and AndroDrive right now and plan on adding in some Stanadrol at about 600-800mg a day as well as increasing my dose of AndroDrive up to 6 caps instead of 4. Once I do get the Stano I will probably stop the EPI-V until the last 4 weeks so I can use it to help me peak at the end since it keeps the water off so well.

I have been nursing an overuse injury to my elbow the past 2 weeks and can not lift heavy with it right now. As a matter of fact I have not lifted with it at all in a week. That is going to be a factor in my training and progress for sure. Hopefully I will be able to perform my Dumbbell Giant Set routine since it is very low weight. If not then I will be doing legs and then a hands free upper body workout consisting of Machine Flies, Machine Pullovers and Machine Lateral Raises.

Here is a picture of me in my current condition, 207 lbs 9.7% w/ 20 lbs fat, 187 lbs LBM

[MrKleen73]

Thanks to all of you for following along.

Superbeast, not sure what people are going to talk about. I listed quite a bit of anabolics I intend to use above, however this is going to come down to our training and nutrition. Also that distinction does not mean everyone is using something other than what is mentioned. However, it was asked that be a stipulation of the contest so I can assure that everything will not be mentioned by everyone.

[MrKleen73]

This morning I went to do a little lifting and my elbow is still just not as recovered as I would prefer so I decided to extend the Hands Free workout through the rest of this week. For those of you that were not involved in my last log I have chronic tendonitis in my left elbow. Sometimes when I push to hard for too long it flairs up and then I have to take drastic measures like not training the area for a couple weeks. I already took one week off of training the area by not doing any pressing or pulling movements that I had to bend or straighten the elbow under a load.

Hopefully next week I can go back to training my full body and do my DB Giant Set workout. It is 20 reps per exercise, 3 rotations with 9 exercises done as a giant set with no rest being the goal and if unable to finish without a break then not more than 30 seconds between sets exercises or rotations. If I am unable again then I will just do more of what I already am.

Now for the actual workout.

These exercises were done Hands Free as in my hands were not touching the equipment while lifting. I wanted to make sure I did not unintentionally use my hands for any of the lifting and engage the tendon under resistance.

Lateral Raise Machine - 70x15, 90x12, 110x12, 110x12, 110x11 - My shoulders swole up like cannon balls by the end of these.

Pec Deck - 105x15, 135x12, 135x12, 135x9, 120x12 - Had a nice burn in the pecs and a major chest pump.

Single Arm Lat Pull Downs using an Elbow Strap - 50x15, 70x15, 90x12, 90x12, 90x12 - last set was hard to complete. If you are curious what this was. I took an ankle strap and put it on the Cable Crossover then strapped it just above my elbow around the bottom of my biceps and triceps then scooted back a little knelt down and rowed / pulled the cable down and back until my elbow broke the plane of my back. I was surprised by the isolation I was able to feel in the lats even though the strap was uncomfortable on my arm it did exactly what I needed it to for my lats.

Leg Extension - 150x20, 150x20, 150x20 - I have been alternating between a heavier leg day and a heavier or higher volume upper body day. Today was kind of a heavier uppper body day and I was only supposed to get a pump on legs today. Saturday I did hack squats up to 495 so today was just active recovery and getting circulation going.

Body Weight Good Mornings - 15 reps x3 sets in sauna - My hamstrings were still sore from Saturday's lift and I didn't see any need to push them so I used this to get a little stretch and blood into the muscles.
