Day 2
Woke up at 190
Lift day. Will wait to take nitro and Cre-02 2 hours before lift and cordy v02 about an hour before.
Recovery: little stiff from yesterday but good enough to get a decent lift
Diet Today:
Meal 1: protein shake and fish-oil
Meal 2: lean ground beef, broccoli, beans, cheddar cheese
Meal 3: whey, peanut butter, fish oil
Meal 4: whey, lean ground beef, fishoil, cheese
Meal 5: optional...depending on how day goes but probably light steamed broccoli, home made italian(vinegar, EVOO, italian dressing packet) and BCAA.
I add in the cheese b/c i find it a great source of energy for my day since im relatively low on carbs. Its like drinking condensed milk haha.

Absolutely. Week 2 i will start to tweak it once i have established at least 7 days of consistent supplementation and i know the active ingredients are kickin in. I want to make sure no what i state isnt a placebo effect.

Workout Session
Supplementation:
Nitro and Cre-02 were accidently taken more then 120 minutes before workout so that may have diminished the effects a bit....i was kinda peeved about not getting in the gym on time
Ultra cordy ended up being 75-80 minutes before lift and i think i still felt the effects surprisingly after two days
Workout:
Squat: warm up: 135x10 , 225x10 , 315x5 , 405x3
Workout:
405x14, stripped to 315 did it till failure, stripped to 225 did it till failure, stripped to 135 did it till i collapsed
Incline dumbells: 20-30 second rest intervals
95x10x6
70x8x6
50x12x10
30xtill failure
One armed row:
70lbsx 20x20x2(failure)
Shrugs: 3 sets till failure
Dips: 2 sets till failure
Called it a day since i was toast. Took me about 15 minutes to recover from the workout.
This workout i decided to shock my body into something different and hit the higher reps with less sets. Needless to say my body was shocked...i hit some good PR's.
Pump: legs were off the charts pumped, chest was puffing out...great pump
Strength: amazing strength despite the fact i did a two-a-day yesterday
Endurance: better then i expected

Thankx bro!
I set up my power rack so its one peg under 90 degrees so im probably at 75? Its below parrallel but its not ATG. Every rep i make sure i tap the bar so i know im not cheating. I dont like to bounce the bar or remove tension from my legs.
14 reps is a PR for 405

With time anything is possible. I remember when 225 felt like the world and i could barely hit it. Now 405 feels light. Just keep pushing it as hard as you can
haha SWEET!
Just trying to keep up big swole!
Thanks bro! Just trying to work my way up rep by rep.
Thank you for the encouragement guys. I know its not much but a little positive reinforcement lets me know im going in the right direction.

Day 3
Morning Cardio: Sprints
Routine: after warming up and stretching i sprint for a given distance...walk sprint...walk and i do this over the course of a mile. I try to keep the amount I sprint more then the amount i walk.
For today I used mailboxes as measuring sticks. Sprinted from one mailbox to the next then walked to the next, then sprinted to the next.
Observations: Despite being completely exhausted last night i was able to wake up and do my cardio. Endurance isnt up by much(considering its my second day) but my recovery from endurance work is really noticeable. Now just waiting for judo tonight!

The Good and The Bad News
Ok so lets start with the good news:
Judo on Wednesday was great in the endurance department. I was moving the entire class. People that normally would tire me out i was able to tire them out. I was very surprised with the amount of endurance i had. Now im not saying i can go out and run a marathon mut endurance was def. up.
The bad news:
Wednesday i wasnt feeling too great and felt very tired throughout the day but i blamed it on my increased training regimen. After judo i was thoroughly. Thursday all day my stomach felt weird and i fel extremely tired, sore, and weak. I worked out anyway and hard a good bench session but cut the work out short b/c i was feeling increasing off. After the workout i went into a cold sweat, my blood pressure felt like it dropped and i was pretty much out of commission. Friday I woke up early in the morning in a cold sweat again. My stomach felt like it was in the middle of the ocean, my head was throbbing and i felt extremely weak. I proceeded to vomit my entire christmas eve dinner...that apparently was not digested in the least. The rest of the day i ate small amounts of fruits and water. Whatever my stomach could keep down.
So these leaves me at a small break in my log. I stopped taking MST supps on friday and I am taking a few days off of my diet and log till Im back to 100%. It seems i contracted a stomach virus of sorts and I feel much better today but i need to replenish my muscles from not eating for a day. Surprisingly my weight is not down. Im at 190 so thats good. I was able to eat some crackers with ham and cheese and keep that down as well.
Sorry about the stall in my log. I will see how i feel monday and resume with my log then IF i am 100%.

I hope you are felling a little better GH. Feel free to take as long as you need to get rolling agin on the log. You can even start the supps slow on the come back if your stomach is still feeling sensitive. Take care of yourself man.

When I don't have time for anything else, I'll do 200. Most I ever got was 70 in a row, pause, keep going. I've lost skin off my hands from huge blisters from these.

That burpees article made for an interesting read even though he contradicted himself a few times. LOL How in the heck is there going to be rape, murder and stabbings if no one is allowed out of their cells, and when they are they are in shackles. LOL That article is informative on the burpee but the rest of the story unfortunately sounds like an exaggeration to make the workout seem all the more intense and effective.
Not that it would matter to any of us here because we do have access to other workouts, but burpees alone would create a severe muscular imbalance not offering any resistance for the pulling muscles of the back and biceps. That alone would be terrible for grapplers such as yourselves. At least add in chins with it.

It's a weird combo of cardio and strength. It hits legs and abs hard, strangely hits back, and lots of other stuff. Best I ever got was 4 sets of 50, with 30 seconds between sets.
uke:The article is dumb. But if you're stuck in a cell, or snowed in at home, crank out the burpees, trust me you won't feel like you missed a thing. They're extremely demanding.

Oh for sure an awesome workout. As far as it hitting back, I see this hitting the lower back pretty hard and also the lats would get some antagonistic work from the push up portion which would offer at least a pump. Abs and legs and chest would be hit hard for sure and the anaerobic work would be high to for conditioning.

IM BACK BABY!!
PHEW!! OK im back! AND I HAVE THE RAGE AND INTENSITY OF 1 MILLION INSECURE ITALIAN MIDGETS HELLBENT ON TRYING TO PROVE THEMSELVES!!! haha ok i think u get my point
Thank everyone for checking in and showing your concern. It really inspires me to kick it up a notch. Im back and im ready to GO HARD!
I started today at a very low dose of Cre-02 and Ultra Cordy. 2 pills of Cre and 1 pill of V02. Ill start up nitroceps tomorrow b/c my stomach felt A-OK!
Hit up a really good mile. I didnt time it but i was able to sprint the last block and half and then do some ground work for about an hour. SO endurance has NOT GONE DOWN. Amazing stuff i tell you. Tomorrow ill hit up the workout i was suppose do on saturday.
Diet was a little more carb intensive seeing as that im gonna slowly wheen my body to low carbs but I will be keeping my fruit and veggie intake high to moderate.
I have hit up some burpees in the past but havent focused on them. I guess I will add them in when its time to kick it up a notch again!

The dreaded wall
Alright guys I have to say MST puts out some quality supps. I now know this will be a company i regularly use.
Pumps on Nitro are great, recovery on CRE-02 is amazing for a creatine, and V02 works like a charm. Even though i was cautious about the effects working immediately i am now sure they kick in on the first dose.
All in all i would rate this stack a 10/10 for natural athletes looking for a little extra edge. The supps def pushed my body past my natural limit by 2 extra weeks of really hard training.
But i am but human and my body is starting to tell me its time to lighten the load. But im not done cutting so here is my plan.
Then next week to 2 weeks i will take off all significant weight from squats and bench and focus on reps and rest timing. I will put number of reps to complete per workout in a given time and go for it. This will allow me to burn calories...increase muscle tone....and not add extra damage until i take my break from lifting.
My past two workouts have been of very poor quality due to me. Even though i felt i had no strength...thats when the supps still shined. Pumps were amazing despite the lack of intensity. Strength should have been much lower. Endurance was uncanny despite everything. I secretly started to feel this way 2 weeks ago but i didnt want to admit it. And the minute i started MST i was able to push my self to 6 days a week and 3 of those days i was hitting cardio twice a day.
I am floating between 186-188. I carbed up real good and only hit 192 to rapidly drop back to 188. Once i hit 185 and able to maintain it for several days i will call of my cut and slowly wheen my body back to maintenance.
I hit squats this morning.
Ill be hitting another mile run on monday.
Deadlifts on tuesday
Morning walk and judo wednesday
Bench Thursday
Mile Run and judo Friday
Squats Saturday
