Thanks for all the support and encouragement, guys
. . . Although Forslean has never caused me any issues before, it has been suggested that it is possibly the Forslean content re the combination of Drive and FREE TEST - because even though I have stacked both these products before with no problems, I am now dosing 6 caps of Drive instead of only 4 caps daily. So, we'll see. The next 'test' to do will be dosing Drive back at 4 caps and see what happens . . .

Day 8: One Week Down
TRAINING
It's my scheduled Day OFF today - and boy am I glad! My body definitely needs it; I hurt all over, like a huge bruise.
COMMENTS
Stimulant Effects: None felt.
Metabolism: Working fine.
Body Composition and Look: 116.2lb at 11.9% bodyfat. So, not much of a change in body composition, but given the week just been with lack of both eating and training (for the most part), is SOMEthing . . .
Other Effects: Still thirsty as anything, my mouth and throat feeling dry all the time.
Other Notes: Dosed only 2 caps of Drive with my "first thing" supplements today. No nausea experienced. I can only conclude that while I may have started off with food poisoning, the higher dose of Drive with FREE TEST exacerbated the issue and continued to cause the nausea, and therefore am dropping back to using only 4 caps of Drive daily (post #1 updated to reflect the change).

I think youre dead on Rosie. Sounds like food poisoning was the cause, and then something was just keeping you from returning to normal.

COMMENTS
Mood/Aggression: Interesting . . .
Energy: YES!
Stimulant Effects: I took 2 caps of Alpha-T2 this morning - and will keep doing so from now on (change noted in post #1) - and definitely noticed a difference to using only 1 cap. Almost a tight feeling in my chest, that took a while to pass . . .
Mental Focus and Clarity: There.
Metabolism: Good.
Appetite: Last night was another FORCED meal, and I don't think I've ever eaten so slow, nor never finished what I started (guess there IS a first time for everything)! Today, appetite has gone KAPUT . . .
Stress: HighER.
Libido: Body is ready.
Endurance: Fine.
Strength: Noticed a decrease in strength from the last time I was doing some of these exercises in the gym - but not a big deal; I'm just going to have to let my ego go . . .
Pump: Some.
Vascularity: I want it to be BETTER (and yes, not because it does anything, but because it looks nice, LOL)!
Quality of Training: HIIT was INTENSE. My efforts took so much out of me that I HAD to go easy - if I'd kept going for 8 reps per effort set, every other effort after my first two would have been just fast running and not full-on sprints. As it was, I had to stop for ~30 seconds after the second effort of my second set, because I almost - ALMOST - threw up again, and because I could barely breathe . . . Resistance session was ok. Painful, but ok . . . Had to stop after the tenth minute of post-weights cardio, and made my way to the bathroom with my towel over my mouth and my stomach heaving (so very NOT cool) . . .
Recovery: Definitely feels better to be training hard and intense again! I know I'm going to feel it, though . . . But, as Duke said in G. I. Joe: Resolute, "Who the hell has time for pain?"!

I will be looking to run this sometime soon myself. I need something to help drop the fat I have gained since my right knee injury.
I talked my wife Rosie into giving AT2 a shot so I have to give it a go. Otherwise I look like an a$$ for talking her into it and not running it myself...lol. I'm an a$$ anyway as Rosie would tell you.
Cheers!

lol nice post!!!
hey Rosie those pull up numbers are fantastic!!! nothing cooler than seeing a young lady doing perfect form pull-ups!!!
Rosie Chee
The Female Terminator
Thanks, bud
It took a while to work up to those - when I first started I could barely do a few reps, but aimed for 4x6, doing negatives when I couldn't do any more complete ones by myself. Doing them twice a week helped as well. LOL, it's funny when one of the guys in the gym walks up to me and says "that's impressive" or "you're doing well", like they've never seen a female do them before or something They've really helped build my back up as well - along with BB bent over rows.

COMMENTS
Mood/Aggression: Better once in the gym and training.
Energy: Endless momentum carrying me through the day.
Stimulant Effects: None.
Mental Focus and Clarity: I've been so focused today that it feels like time has barely gone by at all, and yet when I looked at the clock, it was mid-afternoon already!
Metabolism: Fine.
Appetite: Feel like I want to eat everything in sight, but I have to control myself. I will NOT let myself be beaten in the kitchen; I CANNOT!
Stress: Still higher than higher.
Libido: Great training sessions mean higher libido later on . . .
Endurance: Excellent. I DO need to work on my running endurance again, though, since it is KILLING me!
Strength: Considering that my resistance session wasn't about strength, it was ok for what it was.
Pump: Definitely.
Vascularity: The best it's been in a long time.
Quality of Training: HIIT took so much out of me each effort, that after the second effort, I literally stopped - more firsts for me, since I don't stop, no matter what - and waited out the 40-seconds, gasping and almost collapsed on the floor. All sprints were full speed and excellent re quality, only feeling my body slowing somewhat on the last effort . . . Resistance session was good. I was sweating buckets, and feeling the burn . . .
Recovery: Well, nothing hurts from yesterday, so that's a good sign.
Body Composition and Look: I mowed the lawns today, and that 50 minutes in the sun made me brown! Man, if I spent like an hour in the sun a day, I'd be as tanned and bronze as I was when I first came to the US, but I can't really sunbathe nude here like I did back home - wouldn't want to give the neighbours or passers by a heart attack, LOL.
Other Effects: Today is the first time in 2 weeks that I haven't felt nauseous, and not when training - which is great!
Other Notes: I get my bike tomorrow (SO looking forward to that)!

Sleep - Time and Quality: For the first time in weeks I actually fell asleep BEFORE 0500, and slept a very restless 3 hours, waking close to when I wanted to. Made for a very LONG day, though . . .
Mood/Aggression: Ok mood. I am just EXHAUSTED!
Energy: I am seriously dead and dragging my feet. I have been wanting to sleep since ~1400, but have not been able to sleep, and right now I am almost asleep, but not. I will most probably pass out not long after finishing this . . .
Stimulant Effects: None.
Mental Focus and Clarity: Have been with it, but right now I just want to be passed out.
Metabolism: Ok.
Appetite: Was starving at work, and ate a whole lot - food that I definitely should NOT have been eating (SPANKINGS!) and felt quite sick to my stomach afterwards. I need to learn to EAT my food and not INHALE it!
Stress: Higher than ever!
Libido: Fine.
Endurance: Great, considering the way I was feeling.
Strength: This session was NOT about strength - and actually, for me, the weights today were LIGHT, and definitely felt like a "girl" in the gym - NOT a feeling I like!
Pump: Most certainly. It was PAINFUL.
Vascularity: Out of this world. Especially after the food at work, and the after-work drink (I know, more bad!)
Quality of Training: I was simply shattered and in so much pain today that I just forced myself through training with lots of grimaces and cursing. Seriously SHATTERED after the last superset - shorter recovery periods not helping either . . .
Recovery: I ache all over, especially my rhomboids and anterior deltoids.
Body Composition and Look: Better today. Seeing definition well pm.
Other Effects: Felt nauseous in the gym today during resistance training, so forwent my post-weights cardio.
Other Notes: Got my textbooks, bike and cycling stuff, and some of my clothes today. I will unpack my bike tomorrow, and definitely glad to have my textbooks with me again! . . . So shattered at work. Didn't want to be there, to be honest, and was dragging my feet, when normally I am the Energizer Bunny, whipping here, there, and everywhere . . . Had a drink after work as well. Had an allergic reaction to it - burned up, and entire body about 10 minutes later was bright red, as if I'd been sunburnt or applied Eviscerate all over, and burning up real bad, my head pounding more than ever. I have had more alcohol in the last 7 days than I have in the last 7 YEARS! WTF??? I DON'T even like drinking - just like I don't like ice-cream, and I've been eating galleons of it lately . . . I definitely do NOT like this heat. It makes me feel like the walking dead, especially after hammering myself training . . .

Body Composition and Look: I don't even want to THINK about it, let alone look at it, after yesterday! :sigh:
Other Effects: Well, at least I know what caused the nausea today (seriously :smashfreakB: I need a good kick in the head!) :buttkick:

COMMENTS
Sleep - Time and Quality: When I resort to drinking - something I literally canNOT stand - to try and get to sleep, there is a SERIOUS problem!
Mood/Aggression: I'm tired. I'm exhausted. I have no motivation. I can't be bothered. I'm highly pissed off and stressed . . . And my answer is to shove my body through another brutal training session that it's not equipped to quite handle just yet . . . Fcuking genius . . . NOT!
Energy: I have NOTHING right now.
Stimulant Effects: None.
Mental Focus and Clarity: If I COULD turn my mind off, I WOULD!
Metabolism: Good.
Appetite: I've gone from wanting to inhale everything in sight to not even wanting to know about food.
Stress: The pressure just KEEPS ON BUILDING . . .
Libido: None.
Endurance: Ok.
Strength: It was an effort just to do what I did today.
Pump: Not as much as usual. Odd.
Vascularity: Getting stronger as resistance session went on - I want it HIGHER though . . .
Quality of Training: Seriously don't know what I was thinking - actually, yeah, I do: Training is the ONLY way I can even remotely have a chance at staying sane, but sometimes even that doesn't help me . . . HIIT was not the best. Still shattered, and the third time I've had to STOP during a session for "recovery" (WTF???!!!) . . . Resistance session was ok. Felt so slow, like I was moving in slow motion, and in the end, just wanted it over and done with, glad when I finished . . .
Recovery: My entire body aches today. AND I have a huge pressure migraine . . .
Body Composition and Look: Could be 100% better - but that's my own fault from the last two weeks.
Other Effects: None.
Other Notes: Honestly, the last two weeks have sucked balls. My body - and mind - have gone through a rollercoaster. As I mentioned above, "I'm tired. I'm exhausted. I have no motivation. I can't be bothered. I'm highly pissed off and stressed", and "When I resort to drinking - something I literally canNOT stand - to try and get to sleep, there is a SERIOUS problem!" I have NOT been myself the last two weeks, and almost none of what has happened is very conducive to anything. I have all the reasons for being the most motivated person in the world, and yet I am seriously struggling to find a sliver of it. Training is NOT an option, but instead of making things better right now, all it's doing is compounding on everything else . . . I'm only 26, and I'm tired of life . . . :shocked1:

That is no good Rosie, there are so many things you have going for you its not even worth thinking like that! We are all here to support you so lean on us when you need a boost or to vent. I don't have anything magical to add except there is always tomorrow and hopefully it will bring a better day your way.

Wow Rosie I just feel horrible for you. However we have all been there... I can tell you that what makes us great is how we rise above these things. Great workout however.
We definitely learn more about ourselves in times like this . . .
. . . And where once I would have just bottled it all up and repressed it, at least now I CAN talk about it - even though it makes me appear weak; something that I hate being at any time - and that helps sometimes. Thanks, guys. I really appreciate your support and encouragement!

Day 15: Two Weeks Down
TRAINING
None. Scheduled day Off - although I DID mow the lawns, and that took me an hour . . .
COMMENTS
Stimulant Effects: None - not even 3 caps of BLACK CATS does much anymore!
Metabolism: I think I have a fairly fast metabolism - at least, when I'm training as I should be.
Body Composition and Look: 116.4lb at 11.7% bodyfat. So, again not a lot of change re body composition. SLOWLY losing the bodyfat, which is a good thing - needs to happen a little faster, though, so DIET AND TRAINING on track for next week, and things will HAPPEN!
Other Effects: I am definitely more INtolerant of the heat, and my body feels like a constant furnace I am that hot . . . Thirst is also a constant, nagging feeling, and yet drinking doesn't quench it . . .

TRAINING
HIIT Cardio:

b. 4 x 20 sec effort/40 sec recovery
c. 4 min jogging
Gym - Shoulders (30 sec recovery between alternate sets):
Alternate Set A -
1. Behind-the-Neck BB Military Press 4 x 12, 10, 8, 6
2. DB Lateral Raises 4 x 12
Alternate Set B -
3. BB Military Press 4 x 12, 10, 8, 10
4. DB Bent Over Rear Raises 4 x 8
Alternate Set C -
5. DB Shoulder Press 4 x 8
6. Hanging Straight-Leg Raises (toes to touch bar) 4 x 8
Post-Weights Cardio - Stepper:
20 min @ 8 floors/min
Stretch 20 min.
PM Cardio 20 min.
COMMENTS
Sleep - Time and Quality: Nearly a solid 12 hours!!!
Mood/Aggression: I feel slightly better knowing WHY I have been feeling the way I have - not so great knowing WHAT it is . . . I wonder if God is up there laughing at me?
Energy: It was an effort to get through training to be sure, but the energy is there - it's just about tapping into it and knowing I CAN do it!
Stimulant Effects: None.
Mental Focus and Clarity: My mind NEVER turns off - how's that?!
Metabolism: Interesting.
Appetite: The thought of eating is highly UNappealing right now, especially considering the unpleasant effects that occur after every time I eat, regardless of what or how much (or little) I eat . . . BC+EAA is probably the more important supplement I use right now, and it's going to become even MORE essential to my nutrition than ever from now on . . .
Stress: I am a highly stressed individual by nature, and need it to function properly, but there comes a time when the stress experienced becomes DETRIMENTAL to operations . . .
Libido: Some.
Endurance: Good.
Strength: Better than it was last week for this session.
Pump: Right anterior delt was PAINFUL - sometimes this even affects the session.
Vascularity: Better than it has been during resistance training . . .
Quality of Training: HIIT was even more maximum effort than usual - if that's even possible. I literally had to stop after every effort, that's how hard I was pushing myself, and it took the entire 40 seconds to recover between efforts. MORE efforts needed to be done, I know, but I made up for it in post-weights cardio . . . Resistance session was good. My face started getting flushed after the second alternate set - which is odd, considering usually all colour DRAINS from my face when I'm lifting . . . Post-Weights Cardio was an effort starting out, and my eyes were closed, feeling like I wanted to pass out. Halfway through, I opened my eyes and focused on the quote on the wall ahead of me: "You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them" (Michael Jordon), and from then on, I was pushing it, making my body work and sweat, finishing with my shirt literally drenched . . .
Recovery: Fully recovered after all that sleep!
Body Composition and Look: Searching deep for the positivity.
Other Effects: None.
Other Notes: Learnt a few more things about my body over the last two weeks - not all of it good (it happens when you abuse it too much)! Going to be making a few changes re nutrition and lifestyle to accommodate for it, and hopefully improve my health. It's time the Female Terminator was not only revolutionized, but REMODELED as well!

COMMENTS
Sleep - Time and Quality: I definitely slept this morning - and dreamt too! 8 hours is a little too long, but considering the last few months, it will do. Still want to be back on "Rosie-time" though!
Mood/Aggression: Remotivated!
Energy: There - eventually.
Stimulant Effects: None.
Mental Focus and Clarity: Got a lot of work and study to do today.
Metabolism: Fine.
Stress: Working on it . . .
Endurance: Great.
Strength: Made sure it was better than this session last week - increasing weights.
Pump: Yes, and it was painful.
Vascularity: Reasonable.
Quality of Training: Switched HIIT up a bit today, to work on both speed AND speed endurance . . . Resistance training was great. Making sure my reps were SLOW to induce more pain and effort, increasing weight sometimes as well. Good session . . .
Other Effects: My body temperature is off-kilter - yesterday it was the coolest it has been in days, and I was burning up like a furnace; and today it is back to being almost unbearably warm and I have been getting chills, before sweating lots . . . Aside from that, just thirsty all the time . . . No nausea or upset stomach anymore, except after eating . . .
Other Notes: I did yesterday's resistance session today, yes, and the rest of this week will be doing the day before's resistance session each day, since I didn't train with weights yesterday. Cardio will remain as scheduled.

Rosie you are a true inspiration. I hope you are able to get the issue under control with your remodeling of the machine. I am sure that fat will come off faster when you can eat enough to keep the fire stoked instead of being in a low caloric stat where the body tries to preserve any nutrition as fat. Just the fact you are fighting through this shows your level of resolve.

Damn Rosie. I needed to read through your log to get some inspiration. My transformation has slowly declined and took a turn for the opposite direction. You give me hope and courage. I wish I was as disciplined as you are with your cardio. Kinda wish I never stopped running.
Rosie Chee
The Female Terminator
Thanks
But I'm definitely NOT in a caloric deficit - or much of one, considering I DO force myself to eat several days, and those meals are close to ~4,000 calories each! I agree, though, the fat will be lost faster if my meals are CONSISTENT throughout the day to keep my metabolism going.

LOL...yeah Rosie and I definitely need to take a vacation for sure, but kind of hard to do considering that I am currently recovering from my knee injury. Me being injured has placed a lot of stress on both of us since I haven't been able to work. Anyway, Rosie has had to carry the load and it sucks, but she is pulling it off. I can't wait to be back on my feet so then Rosie can get some type of reprieve and focus more on her goals and less on the stressful sh*t.
A quick thank you to the followers of Rosie's log from me...I appreciate the support you guys are giving my lovely wife. The more positivity that surrounds her the better and I think the support you have shown her will help push her toward kicking some a$$ on stage in competition.
Cheers!:cheers:

Thanks, Josh
I am definitely looking forward to November, when I WILL get some time out!I'm glad I could help, John :bigok:
I don't know that what I do is about discipline, though; I NEED to train just to be able to breathe properly - hence why I mentioned that it's not an option for me. I'm used to doing 30-40 hours a week of "cardio" from when I was cycling, so doing 20 minutes a day is nothing really, and I feel like I'm not doing ENOUGH sometimes!
Ease back into the running. Maybe start at 3-4 miles 2-3 times a week. Start off doing them steady-state, and then move to doing a few efforts throughout it. Your running will improve, and as along as you're eating right, then your body will start to get more into the condition that you desire it to be in.

Day 19: High Reps
TRAINING
Cardio 20 min.
Gym - Full-Body (1 min recovery between exercises):
1. Crunches (hips at 90 degree flexion, legs fully extended, to touch toes) 1 x 40
2. Reverse Curl (on floor) 1 x 40
3. EZ-Bar Bicep Curls 1 x 40
4. Push-Ups (feet on floor, hands on DB under chest) 1 x 40
5. Lateral Raises 1 x 40
6. Supinated BB Bent Over Rows 1 x 40
7. Flat BB Bench Press 1 x 40
8. Single-Leg Deadlifts (with twist and lateral reach) 1 x 40 per leg
Post-Weights Cardio 20 min.
Stretch 20 min.
COMMENTS
Sleep - Time and Quality: So, getting my sleep in the last few days - even if not falling asleep until the early hours of morning - and getting in ~8 hours. Maybe returning to intense Maintenance training levels is what I needed to do a long time ago!
Mood/Aggression: Flat.
Energy: It HAS to be there - I have no time for feeling like the walking dead today.
Stimulant Effects: None.
Mental Focus and Clarity: There.
Metabolism: Fine.
Stress: I wonder if this will actually go down somewhat even when I DO get a break?
Endurance: Excellent.
Strength: This session was NOT about strength - more about pain, LOL.
Pump: Swift, hard, and painful!
Vascularity: Ok.
Quality of Training: Decided to do a high rep 'Kyle' session, something I haven't done in a while, just because I felt like punishing myself and forcing myself to work through the scream. Every exercise burned, the pump making my arms feel huge (which is funny, considering how small they really are). My heart was beating rapidly, and when I started the Flat BB Bench Press, my body suddenly heated up like a fire. Bit wobbly with the Single-Leg Deadlifts, lower legs going painfully numb towards the end of each set, feeling my nerves. Definitely glad when it was over . . .
Other Notes: Finishing up my bottle of Drive today, as well as the one I have of NeoVar Recomped (changes reflected in post #1). I probably won't be using Drive again before this first competition, but will be using NeoVar Recomped when I get a new bottle.

Rosie Chee

Far from it, honestly. But I have 6 weeks left until the first competition, and I know that if I can get my nutrition and training back to how it used to be and as it should be, 4-5 weeks (6 weeks tops) is all I need to be where I want to be. Just means I have to start beating my body more and busting my ass!
