The train wreck log: high dosed epi with a 2 week kick start of mdxt

shoulders today. I was pressed for time so after my db military presses I ran everything in a circuit so I could get out in 45 minutes. Was surprisingly fun for how exhausting it was. I've got a nice shoulder pump going right now.

I finally got a video but the guy starting recording it after I had already repped it a few times. I did it with a weight that I knew I didn't need a spot with. Am I going low enough? I think I get more ROM than most people I see doing db military. Anyways, thoughts? Guys? I want to try the 110s in a few weeks. I think I can do it. I normally can rep 100s x 5 while off cycle.



The angle that it was filmed with makes me look like I'm slanted back further than I am. It is 1 click from being vertical.

db military

90 x 10 x 1
95 x 10 x 1

arnold presses

55, 60, 65, 70 x 10

Looking good. I can't wait till I can throw up those 100 lb MPs too! Range looked good, I used to bring it down to my shoulder, but was feeling a little too much stress on my rotators. I have now been only barely breaking paralel with my arms. Seems to still be effective especially since I got long arms.

That guy is a beast. On his chest day he hits bb flat, bb incline, bb decline bb military, db flat, db incline, db decline and db military. Yeah he isn't in any better shape than he was 6 months ago.
 
day 24:

weight: 207.3 (+12.7)

My weight seems to have stalled at this point, which I expected. I'm debating weather or not I want to continue to eat at my current level or just dirty bulk for the rest of the time. I'm going to try getting blood work done on monday to see where my liver values are. I've been running epi at 60mg all week. Depending on how my blood comes back/how I feel, I will more than likely run epi for 2 to 3 more weeks. I can't say i've noticed any sides, no joint dryness and ever since I switched to epi-strong I haven't been having really bad sleep. The last time I ran epi I did it for 30mg for 28 days which about half way through (I'm on my second week going on to my third) I started dropping weight. Most of it was fat but I started eating fat burger every day and still was losing weight. Nothing like eating 4500 calories dirty and losing fat.

cardio only today. I swam 1000m freestyle. I think I'm going to take off lifting this weekend. Don't want to but my body is definitely hurting.

Oh yea, that old chestnut! "I actually did well over a thousand!".

Range looks good, I like to DB Press overhead with a semi-supinated grip to go as deep as possible but have never seen someone else do it of their own accord.
 
I've never tried doing db military with a supinated grip. Hmm. I'll try that next week. thanks!
 
Semi-supinated, i.e., neutral grip.

I know what you mean about cameramen, a guy filming me going for a 1RM deadlift decided to test his camera skills by flipping it on it's side half way through filming lol.
 
From googling that grip, it emphasizes the shoulders more? Sounds like it will be a good change of pace for awhile. I already have strong triceps lol
 
I think your form looks great bro. Them 85s are Beast, but I still think think that monster doing rows in the background can take you...Jk:rofl:
 
fact: chewing gum is giving me jaw muscle pumps :crazy: :study:

I was actually talking to laura today. She was kind of upset I hadn't tried to hit on her at all. She loves throwing it out there and is hurt by me not trying to make a pass at her. I think if I ever saw her naked it would forever ruin it for me. Like she had 3 nipples or something weird like that.
 
There was this girl in my class in highschool. Was super hot but kind of off limits b/c generally half asian half white people (which I am) of the opposite sex are off limits. Why? B/c most of the time they look kind of like your brother or sister.

Well yeah, she got selected for playboy's girls of the pac-10 spread and it ruined her forever. Her nipples were cat eye shaped. I don't get why they didn't fix that for the spread but either way it tarnished my high opinion of her :(
 
just got back from ellipticalling for an hour. I might go back later and swim some laps.
 
dude ive been watching.. love the video updates... nice!
 
lunch :D. This is like my favorite thing in the entire world. 1 lbs chicken, bbq sauce, cheese, lettuce, tomato, pepercine. I figure thats about 150 g of protein in one sitting?

ehhh MAYBE 150g but usually 4 ounces of chicken is gonna be right at 22g..

so a lb would be 88... the bread might have 15 altogether, and the cheese maybe the same..

so
88
15
15
___
118

but that looks good as hell i cant wait to bulk again hahaha
 
ah I saw that roasted chicken was 9g protein per oz which is where the 150ish figure came from. I'm hungry again. ****.
 
tried something new today. Ran for 30 minutes which was whatever. Ran 3 miles at various paces on the tread mill.

Then I did deep bb squats with the bar. So 45 x 100 x 5

I've never been this tired from any work out. I'm going to pass out in a few.

Also picked up some bcaas, which I haven't been taking for a few weeks. I also got a gainer, just so I don't have to eat too dirty to hold onto this weight. I never realized how expensive it is. I think I paid 40 bucks for 15 servings of stealth vpx at a discount nutrition shop.

I had a minor roid rage incident last night. Oops. I'm debating weather I should post it up or not lol.

Post it bish:spank:
 
So last night I went out to some dive bar. I was with one of the 3 or 4 people that know I do anything stronger than creatine. We're sitting at the end of the bar, which isn't a big place and there aren't too many people there. He goes up to my buddy and says something along the lines of you two are homos. We're like ok whatever, we pull more bitches than you do. He gets frustrated and walks away.

About 30 minutes later he realizes there isn't anyone else there thats worth fighting so he comes back. This dude is one of those big fat guys thats likes to take on smaller guys thinking he is going to pummel them. He maybe is 240-250 at 5'9 or somewhere around there.

He decides to throw a punch at my friend. He dodges it. I step in. Grab the guy by the throat and throw him on the floor. The bouncer starts to laugh his ass off. Tells both of us to leave before anything else happens.

This is the second time I've done something like this on epi. Oops.
 
i forgot, the dude I threw on the floor apologized afterwards :crazy:
 


fast forward to 55 seconds. Pretty much the same thing lol.

2 PR's today. Stoked on that. One was intentional. The other one was b/c this old guy was talking trash on me. I hate the holidays, more idiots at the gym.

chest/shoulders day

******

db incline press

70 x 12 x 1 warm up
90 x 10 x 1
100 x 10 x 1
110 x 10 x 1 (pr)

bb flat bench
185 x 12 x 1 warm up, I like warming up on bb anything just to make sure my shoulder is good to go
225 x 10 x 1
245 x 8 x 1
275 x 4 x 1

at this point some old guy comes over tells me there isn't any way I can push 315 off my chest. Telling me how I'm top heavy as **** (I'm not if anything I'm bottom heavy) blah blah blah. He ended up talking to my friend after awhile but he is 68 years old. Short, claims to have been a power lifting champ at 150 lbs. I throw on some more weight. He basically tells my buddy that he should get ready to spot me because I'll need it. **** that guy. Anyways, 355 went up like it was 245. I probably could have done more but I wasn't going to push it, mostly b/c I knew I wasn't going to stay that angry for that long. After I did it he said I bounced the weight off my chest, which I didn't. He then told me to do it again and that real competitors could push 2 times their body weight on bench. I was ready to throw him into a wall but luckily my friends told him to back off or we would have to go out back and settle things like gentlemen :lol:

355 x 1 x 1 (pr)

I've also developed bad back pumps. I took like 15g of taurine and ate 4 bananas. It still hurts. If they don't subside I'm going to start my pct by the end of the week. I thought I'd get dry joints at 60mg a day vs back pumps.
 
Sick workouts dude. **** that old guy, he's jealous that his glory days are long behind him and that you're making him look stupid. Can't do 315... 315 is light weight for the big dogs haha. keep it up.
 
definitely carrying more stomach fat but you get the idea.

ur rebound muscle has kicked in for sure
 
better late than never
im in this bud
 
leg day

I'm popped. I spent most of the day trying to stretch my back out. It feels a lot better, but I'm definitely not going to try pushing it due to my sanity. Did super high volume again. I liked being sore for 3 days. I dropped my dosage of epi to 45mg for the day. That helped. I don't think my body likes epi above 45mg a day.

bb squats

bar x 100 x 4

leg press

180 x 80 x 1

90 lbs calve raises till failure x 3
