Yep the big one that hit weeks ago was about 10 miles from my area. We didn't have anything hit our trailer park thank God! However some of my best friends lost all they had and some lost their loves ones. Very sad my friend. Yeah that Grand slam was tight and it won us the game to make it to the championship.

Back extensions- 1 set 30 reps
Hypers-30 reps
Hanging leg raises with 20lbs 1 set- 20 reps
Weighted Ab Machine- 1 set 20 reps


Thoughts
First 5k run attemped, I got 28min, I'm happy with that as it was my first attempt. Will try and get better time every run. I wanted to do swimming as well but the pool was closed due to someone took a dump in the pool :( I sweated like crazy during that run, unreal lol. After that bike ride my legs are so sore, crazy twitching in my quads. 7 more days left until this contest is over, I'm gonna give it this week.


LEANGAINS DIET: Weigh in was good today, did measurements Day 1 and today, not sure how to feel about them, Arms only went down 1/4 inch, but not happy about how fast my chest/back and shoulders are shrinking lol. But my #1 goal isn't on how I look, it's on performance, I want to get down to 175ish lift as heavy as possible and get endurance way up. Wish I had some BCAA's, I should get my Nutra order in by Monday, I'll start using the RecoveryPRO.
 
Nice update bro. 5k run is no joke and 28 minutes is a great time. I can get 5k in just under 30 minutes, and it took me a while to work up to that.


Definetely need to get them BCAAs in there as soon as you get them though bro. They are a muscle saver in the fasted state and I swear by them now. Recoverpro is pretty good stuff, and I may switch to it when my xtend runs out.

I've done up to 15k's before and I def prefer doing a fast 5k then a paced out 10-15k. My goal for this summer is to get my 5k around 20min, my PR is just under 22min.

I'm going to compete in a spint triathlon in the middle of august, figured if I have something like that ahead it will keep my endurance up lol. It will be a 750meter swim/ 20k Bike/ 5k Run.

I can't wait to get some RecoverPro!

i was thinking i would get my order on monday-then i remembered no mail because of memorial day....do post office workers in canada get as many holidays as they do here-i swear the post office union is like the freaking mafia!!!

I went through a TON of bcaa as I trained for a triathlon. I also added in AN Drive, this helped with endurance and I maintained muscle mass. I am def adding it into my training arsenal this summer as I prep for several tris.

I'll be adding in Ultra-Cordygen for sure, the cordyceps work great!

Did you do a Sprint Triathlon? or Olympic Triathlon?

I'd love to try the Olympic Triathlon next summer. I would love to train for a IronMan one day, that **** is crazy.

I did a sprint, my buddies talked me into doing it and I had 4 weeks to train. Not sure if I want to deal with the ~1 mile swim for an Olympic and the Iron Man is just NUTS!!! My buddy is trying to qualify for Kona next year, he is doing an IM in August in Kentucky.

Nice! Ya Iron Man is nuts, I think I could work my way up to be able to do the swim and bike, but I honestly don't think my horrible flat feet would be able to run 42k's or w.e it is lol.


I'm about to head off for my workout in about an hour and a half, gonna really test out my heart today, I wanna try a 2-2.5 hour weight workout then do 5k run/ 20k bike/ Ab workout/ 30 laps of swimming(750M)

I'll update tonight to let everyone know if I was able to do it lol

you wt train for 2-2.5 hrs? That's crazy. :fool2:

I did a 45 min wo today followed by 500 yds swimming. I will slowly build up the endurance, first race is Aug so plenty of time. I do have a mini-sprint in 2 weeks but that is nothing. Doing it with my 11 yr old nephew.

I used to keep weight workouts between 45min-1hour, but I needed to change things up, my buddy is a beast and decided to try his way....tons of sets lol.

Will update tonight, I will say it was one of my hardest workouts ever, but I was determinded and wanted to finish it and thats what I did!

I can't imagine working out more than about 90 minutes. I would think overtraining would be highly likely after doing that for a while

Agreed, but I can't argue with my buddy, he is 215 ripped and can't believe how fast he has grown since he started working out like a maniac. I needed a change. Not really looking it as going to gain more muscle, but it sure is burning more fat.

Thoughts
This is my second attempt at the 5k run, some how did better then Saturday and this was after a big weight workout LOL, about 26:30, pretty happy with that after doing weights and only 2nd attempt. I pushed it hard, the bike was killer and the time I got to swimming I was so burnt, pushed through it, had to take a little break every few laps but finished it, I'm thankful the sprint triathlon starts with swimming lol. Overall felt pretty good, strength is a little down but I also havn't been starting with incline DB press the last month, next week I'll stick to starting off with bench, I'm going to try a new bench routine for lthe next 7 weeks, I would like to get my 225 bench up to 12 reps for 1 set in the next 7 weeks while cutting.

New bench Routine starting next monday
Week 1- Bench 12 sets of 225x2 reps
Week 2- Bench 8 sets of 225x3 reps
Week 3- Bench 6 sets of 225x4 reps
Week 4- Bench 5 sets of 225x5 reps

Week 6- Bench 3 sets of 225x8 reps
Week 7- Bench 1 set of 225x12 reps

LEANGAINS DIET: It's going great :D, looking forward to putting up some pics saturday, hopefully the change is pretty good for 1 month.


Adamantium
Ok tried this out alone before mixing it with everything and wow, def best tasting supplement I've ever tried, also was great pre-workout, not going to run any of the supplements I tried today, just got my nutra order in and wanted to have a supplement day lol.

Must say the Nos Ether tastes soooo bad lol, I've used it before, but it's almost like I forgot how bad it tastes lmao, but it's a good product and thats what matters.
 
Interesting approach on the bench routine. I had great success with going high rep and building strength in a short time. I liked the hi-rep routine to build endurance.

Bench
3x185x12, then increased to 205 and took several weeks to get to
3x205x12, then increased to 225 and took several weeks to get to
3x225x12

Hmm interesting, if this routine doesn't go as planned I'll give something like that a shot.

It's gonna be hard to focus on bench when I get back to the MMA gym tho, I always have a hard time gaining strength if I'm doing a lot of kickboxing and grappling. But if I win the AndroHard in that contest it may help the strength a lot :D
 
Looking forward to the pics to see how the progress has went so far...

Thoughts
Wow got an awesome sweat doing that circuit outside, I drove out to a nice quarry and brought a bunch of weights in the trunk, me and my buddy did the workout, it was pretty awesome doing the circuit outside in the head, def some fat burning going on :). Really need for my back to get stronger, still not strong enough to do bent over rows with 45lbs plate, pisses me off. I think I will hit the doctors up Monday, not sure what good that will do.....I bet they will try to give me pain killers :@

LEANGAINS DIET: Leaner everyday! Fast was short today, will make it up tomorrow, I was gonna take the day off but I don't want a day off this week, I want to get the best pics I can, so will prob go out and do some running and skipping outside, burn the fat off :D. Will do it fasted.
 
How many hours are you shooting for on the fast?

Doing the leangains diet, 16 hour fast and 8 hour eating window.

Tomorrow will prob make up for being 3 hours short of fasting goal, I will do a fasted workout tomorrow but, Normally I've been doing is 16 hour fast then, low carb shake/oatmeal pre-workout/ workout/ post workout meal and another meal 2 hours later. Try to get all my meals in with in an 8 hour window. Just taking some BCAA's during night fasted hours.
 
Damn man you are dropping weight quick! You are within a couple lbs of me now!
 
:rippedhand: :frustrate:rippedhand:


DAMN IT:@ My computer has been causing me problems for the last few months, it's less an a year old, the warranty was only 6 months so now I can't return it. For the last month the screen has been flickering when it wants too, the last week the corner of the computer screen has been heating up really bad and looks like it's almost burning the screen, now 1/8th of the screen is white with a bunch of different coloured lines. Now I have to borrow $450-$600 for a new laptop :frustrate Damn it!!!! :frustrate


Rant over.

But besides that had a killer cardio workout for being my rest day and it felt much easier today, cardio is def starting to go up now.
