Day 25 - Cardio

Cardio

1HR. 140-150BPM. Butter.

Notes-
-Usually after legs, I'm beat the next day; have to keep it low intensity. Today I was motivated, got into the gym and killed the cardio. I felt like doin more but I gotta keep this paced to some degree.
-Dosed OEP 7am, 1:30pm.
-Diet right on.
-No faltering, just moving right along. Shoulders tomorrow.
-I did dose Ghenerate before my cardio session. Not sure if it was the OEP or the GH that made me fly through cardio.
-Cant wait for numbers already. I'm loving my progress.
 
Really excited about Trifecta after looking at some of these logs. I ordered a cycle (should be sitting at my house as I write this). Can't wait to get started tomorrow. I'll be hitting everything pretty fresh as I just took a week off to recover from a shoulder injury so recovery wise, I should be there.
 
wow, I have just read through this whole log and it's great. I love the people on this site and how they help everyone through. I have some weight to lose in the tune of about 60lbs.... gained it while living here in Japan. Anyhow, good luck to you and I'll be starting a log of my own soon and hope to get everyones help.
 
I'm glad both of you have taken the time to read through, it's getting quite large. Much appreciated. When you're ready, just remember to tie it all in. It'll surprise you how fast results come when you have everything working together synergistically.

persists with conclusion of cycle.
 
Good stuff in here Flex you are really giving it hell. Don't worry about those weak days man. Your body slows itself down when you refuse too kind of a natural survival mechanism as long as your putting in the effort the muscle is getting worked. So don't let numbers get into your head too much.

I'll try.

I'd also like to note, I looked at myself in the mirror at the gym and felt small. Exactly what you were talking about. BigOrexia. I won't let it get to me. I won't go too fast as to lose too much LBM but I won't overfill with cals just to feel better mentally. It's the hurdle everyone faces yet few can conquer. I know in the end, when single digit bf% is a reality this was all for great purpose and desire.

Kleen, how do you feel about higher rep ranges? Last year I did 8-10 during this time. Summer time I was up to 15 with slow tempo and even as high as 20 reps on some exercises. What do you suggest ?

If you want to keep muscle density while cutting then doing lower reps like 5x5 workout with short rest periods is great. Or my full body program which is both heavy and high rep when you consider the drops sets. Sets of 15 are also good for cutting but I like the look I get from heavier weight with shorter rest periods. I just feel it leaves more muscle density. I prefer sets of 15 for when I am letting my body recover from pushing heavy ass weight for too long. A way to tax the muscles and build some endurance while lightening the load on the joints and tendons. I will also use higher reps when extrreme conditioning is my goal. However when trying to keep my mass and cut up heavy weight, lower reps and short rest periods are my bread and butter.

I'll keep these tidbits in mind when it comes time to switch up!

Thx big fella.
 
LG reps; if you're still following, how do you suggest I run Formadrol? I have the XL size bottle, 90 caps. 4 a day will net 3.2weeks. Can I take this for the full 3.2 weeks until the bottle is gone? Or should I take as directed for 2 weeks and save the rest?

If 3.2 is okay, I'll take the Formadrol for the 3.2 and OEP for 4 weeks 2x per day as my bridge.
 
I ran it for 4weeks @ 3/2/2/1 I think. But that was a 60caps bottle. It is a great product. I would spread it out to 4weeks since you have the big bottle :)

Day 28 - Cardio

Cardio

My lucky day!
-Found 20 bucks!
-The girl doing cardio next to me was quite attractive and smelled really good. LOL

Back to seriousness-

1HR. 140-160BPM, had to tone this down. OEP just wants you to keep moving and keep moving faster w/o feeling the grind. It's gonna be my staple fat burner. USP really hit a homerun here. I was worried if I maintained that pace, say bye bye muscle. Kept my range 135-145 thereafter.

Notes-
-Fasted workout, dosed OEP, YG, and GHenerate upon waking.
-Today I started Formadrol at 4x per day and OEP 2x per day. We'll ride this for 4 weeks.
-No soreness, joints feel good, no slowing me down. Can't rave enough about this stack.
-Abs are tough, I store alot here, BUT back fat and chest fat are worse IMHO. My abs have been target #1 and it shows. Chest and Back are status quo from just visuals. Just keep pressin..
-Tomorrow is Chest/Delts/Bi's - Change in exercises coming up, its been 4 weeks, time for change.

Lastly, numbers! Stay tuned for weight and bf%. I'm down 15 lbs and 3%BF so far, this week should be no different. I feel thinner!
 
Weighed in: Lost another 6 lbs. BF down to 18.8%

From Day 1 thats a loss of 20 lbs and 4%BF.

Lost a little LBM here, but lost more fat too. May increase cals just a tad to slow the process. I was hoping for 2-3 lbs loss and all of it being fat.

Measures were 12,13,14MM Chest, took 13, Abs were 40, 41, 43, took 41 and Legs are consistently 10, 11.

I haven't been in the 220's in years. Starting to get compliments from outsiders as well. Feels stellar!

Off to the gym. Gotta get work done.

Before you make adjustments look closely at your food intake from the past week, have you cut carbs a little unintentionally? Have you increased your water intake, did you start taking something with Aromatase inhibitors in it maybe? Something that would dry you out and make you lose extra water weight which is also considered LBM? I jest Bro no need to worry you did indeed do the last few things I mentioned. The formadrol is going to make you drop water you were retaining, that is not your muscle although included in LBM. You are golden bro. Don't sweat it and don't raise your calories.
 
Congrats on the progress man! You are doing great - really!! The dedication you got, it's amazing :)

I think I did cut carbs unintentionally. Mainly because I ate alot on Sunday. I also have been fired up on my cardio and have been doing higher intensity.

Ya know, I'm just gonna keep riding this train. We'll see where it takes me.

Thanks for the words, my inept experience to get ripped sometimes sways me..

Thanks CC. I'm at the point where its no chore, instead its fun to be challenged to meet my numbers and keep the progress moving in the right direction. Gettin veiny, thinner and more imtimidating looking is motivating as well!
 
your results are getting better and better by the post. Workouts are looking :head: too. Keep up the hard work man. You are doing great!
 
Day 31 - Legs

Legs

Leg Press
270 - 10
450 - 10
630 - 10
720 - 8
810 - 6 Hit the bump stop, lol. Brought these down far. Not the half
rep crap I always see. Partials have their place in this game, but not
on a leg press.
530 - 12

Hack Squat
180 - 10, 10, 10 a$$ to ground with pauses. Love exploding from the
bottom.

Step machine
30 - 10 each leg
50 - 10 each leg
100 - lost count..was beat like a drum.

Seated Calves
50 - 10
170 - 10
150 - 10, 10

Reverse Leg Curl
110 - 10, cramped on the successive set and stopped. We'll prioritize
these next week.

20 min low intense cardio. 15 min sauna.

Notes
-I'm in 'PCT' but I feel I'm getting stronger, lol.
-I look good fellaz. When I put my hands on my hips, you see
the immediate 'V' shape taper, freaky lookin. My quads are also
impressive and calves are also on point. Gotta keep workin hard, no
glory here.
-Big winter storm tomorrow. Guess where you'll find me? Thank God
for the gym and AWD.
-Diet right on, cals might be slighter higher due to my mistake and
my man Kleen correcting me. We'll get this taken care of.
-I can't say enough good things about YG. I'm always 'full' looking.
As stated much before, me dieting in the past resulted in fast weight
loss but flat as a board and weak. I'm maintaining, I'm full, and
losing lbs by the day. Just phenomenal.
-Also want to note Ghenerate. This stuff is making me get great sleep.
I love it!
-My days are high stress at work mentally. My gym workouts are
hard and methodical. I find myself wanting to goto bed early and
skipping TV. The extra sleep and listening to my body instead of
fighting it is really making a difference as well.
-Cardio tomorrow, I know OEP will have me focused to push hard!

Lastly, I wanna say a few things that are always preached but sometimes not practiced. My workout partner, you can clasify him as a beginner and that's fine. He bought Trifecta stack as I did but kept his diet the same. Well, guess whaat..he's the same size, same strength..He boozed frequently, didnt get enough protein in, and ate whatever whenever. You get out what you put in. And that means covering all your bases. I wish he had better results, but when you put in 'whatever', you get out 'whatever'. Just a tidbit I know you all know, but sometimes need to hear it as a friendly reminder.
 
hey, hes only jewing himself out of results lol. thats his problem! hope pct goes well for you. i thought u were bridging tren? or you doing that after the formadrol?

No you're right, but he's a friend and I'm tryin to show him what true dedication can result in.

I'm finishing up with Formadrol coupled with OEP. Ill run that for 4 weeks and then start a 5 week 19Nor. After its all said and done, I'm hoping to be 11-12% after these 15-16 weeks. Then I can work on getting that last 5% off on a keto. More to come on that!
 
Hope you are gonna log the 19-Nor run ;)

//CC
 
word i feel ya...im really considering starting my mmv3 tommorow. that would be bridged into a tren/test cycle for 10 weeks. i was gonna save it but whatever. lol. just realised i 4got my tuna for my second meal here at work.....thank god i have a protein bar in my laptop case LOL. ill have to have my carbs alil higher than normal cuz of it...but its better than not eating

No debate Bro put em up! Remember how motivating others opinions were for you? Put them out there lets see what is really going on with you. We will be better judgesof your situation because we aren't going to look for negatives like you will. You really can't beat positive feedback and those pics, they hold you even more accountable. Not only that but I am sure LG would love to see what you have done during the period on the stack. Will also give you more reference points.

Day 32 - Cardio

Cardio

-K, so I didnt mention this yesterday because I thought it was no big deal, but I tweaked my back. I'm leaning to one side, I've done it before in the past; strained. A good week or week and a half, I should be back to normal.

-1 HR. Did my best here. I was hoping cardio would loosen my back up and it did but it doesnt feel good still.

-What made everything worse was my legs are and will continue to be extremely sore. I cant bend very well to help support my back. Doube negative here :(

-Relaxing at the moment. Will continue to take it easy and hit shoulders tomorrow. I should be able to finish my workouts but no sudden movements or overzealous attitude here. We'll make sure I'm 100% for the 19nor cycle.

-Don't feel I'm losing (weight) as much this week, but we'll let the numbers speak for themselve on Sunday.

It is not the pain you are trying to fix it is the inflamation so it can heal. The inflamation slows the healing process quite a bit. Just drink more water if your worried about it. The pain will go down from the inflamation going down but the real reason to take it is the anti inflamatory effect.
 
I'm really lovn the M1d on cycle bro. Things are sooo smooth. GL with it all man. It'll be the TRUE test with Tren :eek:
