interesting "light" day lol nice work brotha, tahts one impressive squat clean
 
post up a little of your diet and maybe if you feel your body changing at all....strenth is obv, goin up, noticing any body changes?
 
Good point. I took today off (Ik thats surprising to you haha) but yea I def feel stronger and developed a bit more size everywhere. I look more cut too... probably due to the crossfit type workouts.
Diet should be better.... more like urs MKretz lol
Sandwiches are my quick fix throughout the day(Turkey) also greek yogurt
Dinner is my best meal with lean chicken or beef and some type of vegetable
Always go to a protein bar for a quick fix too: do LOVE Quest Bars!
 
you really should try figuring out how many calories you takeina day, give people on here an idea........and i dont belive u took a rest day
 
Yeah, I hear you... I'm guessing around 3000 since I am gaining .05- 1lb a week.
Workout on Saturday was really good:
Max Squat at 405 (Box at 18in)
Max DL at 425
Overhead Squat (135x10 for 3 sets and 145x 5 for set 4: Must Squat Snatch 1st Squat)
Accessory:
Band Leg Curl (3x 30 each leg)
1 Leg Squat (10 each leg) to a back extension w/ 80lb DB for 10 reps: Did that 3x
MM Doing its job as always... have zero complaints so far.
 
Sunday: For Veterans Day I did not take MM before my workout because it was a Crossfit Veterans Day WOD which was:
Run 10 miles
150 Burpee Pull ups
Did it just under 2 hours.
From past experiences, taking any pre workout on a long run makes my heart race and dehydration sets in quicker due to the effects from Caffeine.
I'd rather save MM for my heavier and strength days anyway, b/c its making me put up some serious weight!

thats a serious workout right there....how did it feel not suing a pre for the first time in a lil bit, feel sluggish at all?
 
haha yea it was different for sure.. mostly to get myself going. Once I got running tho my Heart Rate started to jump so I got energy, just slower to adjust.
After that 10mile run, I took MM on Monday and Today:
Monday:
Clean and Jerks: Worked up to a 205lb Jerk which is a new PR! Also was able to Power Clean 225... my lungs and energy was AWESOME!
Rows w/ DB's (70lbs) to a Rear Delt Raise (20lb dbs): 10 reps each
CG Bench: 2 sets of 12 reps w/ 135lbs
1 set of 7 reps with 185... trying for 8, almost lol
Finished w/ abs (20lb russian twists and knee ins)

Tuesday: Felt more tired overall today, even with MM, although it was MM that made me want to lift lol
Beat my old time in this Crossfit workout:
3-6-9-12... reps of 100lb Thruster to Chest to Bar Pull-ups in 7 minutes: Got through 15 thrusters and 10 pullups
Squatted up to 275 for 1 and then back down to 225 for 10
leg press up to 8 plates on each side (im not a math major so sorry lol) 3 sets of 8

1 legged press: 2 plates each side--> 4 Plates--> 5 plates (Sets of 15, 12, 10)
Superset with Band Leg Curl (3x 25 each) and Back Extension (3x 15)

Bosu Ball Single Leg DL: 50lbs (10x each leg) then 80lbs (2 sets of 10x each leg)

Overall a great last 3 days. The running def has helped my lungs so I have to keep that up as well .
 
Just wanted to say I posted my review of Muscle Marinade. It is good stuff. :)

Cheers!:cheers:

I use to drink it daily for my creatine...
ConDense can be used a daily energy drink.
 
I can see what you mean about ConDense being that it will keep that pump going all day, but I dont see use in the Caffeine unless it was for workout purposes or pulling an all nighter lol... that's just me. MM has a lot more in it for pre-workout purposes, but ConDense seems to combine an NO Product with Caffeine which could def be used for a pre work out too.
 
Also, New PR in my Deadlift Today! 455 Baby!!
did a quick Met-Con circut today and the rest was Deadlifts lol... back is sore but MM def keeping up its reputation!
