Solid arms day today, the pumps were great and muscles felt good and full the entire day. This fullness lasted much longer into the evening then normal, I would have to attest this due to the Furaz/Epi. Also I've noticed that, I'm sweating a bit more each workout then normal again i can only assume this is due to the the Furaz/Epi. Looking forward to legs tommorow.

Great Chest day today, as I said in my review/log for the cycle it's been quite nice. Starting to feel the tightness more and more and definetly seeing more vascularity in and across my chest. For some reason i was a little lethargic going into my workout today, lack of sleep, working in the morning who knows but all in all I think the numbers were good and definetly seeing good progress.

Incorporated a little cardio starting this week, 10 min. @5.0 incline -3.5spd
-------------------------------------------- 10 min. @1.0 incline -6.0 spd

Another great day, definetly can tell that the joints are begining to dry out a bit nothing major just a little stiff feeling, going to bump up the cissus dosage and see if that helps. As starting this week I'll continue to do around 20 min. cardio 3 times a week just to give a little bump to the BF drop. Also changed up from normal deads to rack deads to really focus on the small of the back and that squeeze.

Normally today would have been shoulders but due to a scheduling conflict, aka got called into work no choice obviously have no choice in that matter so I'll switch out the days and take tommorow as my normal shoulder day.

A great day today, back on track with my logs and the cycle is finally begining to truly kick in imo. I felt strong today, quite strong, numbers might not reflect it as much but the feeling never left me the entire workout. I seemed like the intensity never stopped the entire time I was at the gym. Hoping that days like today continue the rest of the cycle!

What a day! I love legs day, nothing feels better then when you push yourself to the point you can't walk. That sick feeling in your stomach, the shacky legs, knowing that you've given it everything you have + sum.

Today was definetly the best legs day I've had in awhile, you ask why? Well the number went up a little on the rack and I just felt like I was pushing thru the floor!

A great day today even with a little shoulder pain, shoulder was quite a bit sore and just didn't seem to have the push to get the weight up during th DB presses. Still none the less it was solid with a great burn today, was a limited on the time so I seemed to motor from one set to the next. All in the all good day, going to ice the shoulder tonight and hope it feels better.

Great arm day today! Everything was full and tight the entire workout. The behind the head's seem to be really hitting the peak of the bicep and definetly seeing a little more definition.
