Day 16 continued
My energy was pretty good at work today. It wasn’t at the same level as yesterday, but a couple days of less than optimal sleep could have something to do with it. Either way, work doesn't seem to be beating me up this week, as much as it has in the past.
I actually got out of work a couple hours early and had just enough time for a quick workout before the gym closed. I held off on my back routine and decided to do some arms (mainly triceps) and light chest work. I plan on working my back tomorrow, before a big post workout feast.
The following was taken pre workout:
1 cap Patented Anabolic
2 scoops Craze
2.5 scoops Protocol
My strength was up and progress was made with repeat exercises from last week. There weren’t any big lifts scheduled, but I always look forward to close grip bench. That’s the main reason I made it to the gym today and the rest of my routine was added on the fly.

For only performing one bicep exercise, the pump was pretty strong and lasted a while after my workout.
My calories were down a little, but work hours were as well. I probably finished the day with about the same surplus as I’ve been getting all week. My change of breakfast brought my fat total up and the carbs down.
Today’s calorie total and breakdown were as follows:
Calories: 5827
Carbs: 469
Protein: 476

I plan on heading to the gym in the morning before any Thanksgiving festivities. I also plan on getting a good amount of sleep tonight and will use tomorrow as a rest day if I don’t wake up early enough.

Day 17
Happy Thanksgiving!
I woke up well rested and feeling pretty good after about 8 hours sleep. I weighed 209.5lbs (+2.5lbs from “Day 1”) this morning. I’m guessing this will be where my weight bottoms out for the week, considering the amount of food I’ll be eating today.
I had some time to kill before doing anything holiday related, so I decided to head to the gym for this week’s back workout.
The following was taken pre workout:
1 cap Patented Anabolic
100mg Caffeine
2 scoops Craze
2g ALCAR
2.5 scoops Protocol
1 scoop I-BCAA Max was used intra workout
I made strength improvements today, but not quite at the same level overall as a couple of my workouts earlier this week. I hadn’t gone to the gym shortly after waking up in a while and I think it may have had a small impact on what I accomplished. I had a harder time getting focused, but was still satisfied with the workout overall.

I’ve already had a good amount of food today and have yet to sit down for the Thanksgiving feast. It will be harder to give a completely accurate calorie total at the end of the day, but I should be able to come up with a close estimate.

Day 17 continued
I ate a ridiculous amount of food today and loved it. The calorie total crushed my previous high since starting PA and this log. My appetite was up today, which made eating everything a breeze and I’m actually trying to resist eating more tonight.
Round 1
Invalid Link Removed
I went back for an almost identical looking plate and followed it up with some desserts. Hopefully I don’t wake up too fat lol.
Today’s calorie total and breakdown were as follows (had to estimate a few serving sizes, but undershot the total if anything):
Calories: 7138
Carbs: 670
Protein: 437
Fat: 291
(38/25/37)
I’ll be back at work in the morning, but luckily get started an hour later the normal. I should be feeling quite refreshed after no work today.

Yup. It was a delicious 7k and happened effortlessly. I might've actually eaten less food today than I normally do, but the calorie content was obviously up.
Thanks brochacho. Strength has been great this week and I've really surprised myself with a few lifts.

Day 18
Waking up was rough this morning, as all I wanted to do was hibernate after the yesterday's holiday. I had some Focus XT to help get me moving and I’m currently feeling good.
I weighed 212.6lbs (+5.6lbs from “Day1”) this morning after yesterday’s feast. I’ll probably shed some of the extra weight after getting back to work today. The added weight does'nt appear to be presenting itself very negatively at the moment.
Breakfast included eggs, roast beef hash, and some cereal. I had no problem enjoying a reduced amount of cereal (3 cups).
Breakfast calorie total and breakdown:
Calories: 1774
Carbs: 124
Protein: 81
Fat: 107

Day 18 continued
My energy was good at work today. There wasn’t any point where I felt like taking a nap, which can happen, especially after lunch.
I had planned on going to the gym for a chest and light triceps workout tonight. I would normally work legs today, but I tweaked my lower back a little at work and thought it would be best to hold off on squats for a couple days.
I dosed PA and the rest of my usual pre workout supplements before heading to the gym. After I got warmed up on BB flat bench, it was announced that the gym would be closing in 15 minutes (It would have been appreciated if the person working the front desk mentioned this to me as I walked in, instead of just saying “Hi”). I had to bail on my workout and I did a couple sets of hanging leg raises before leaving.
Although I didn’t get much accomplished at the gym, I did see an increase in vascularity after dosing. Veins continue to be more pronounced throughout the day, but really shine intra and post workout.
I noticed an increase in body temperature with today’s PA dose, but it wasn’t as strong as some previous days. I’m unsure if this effect is fading or what may cause it to hit me at different levels.
My caloric intake came back down to earth and I finished the day with good total (surplus), based on my activity level.
Today’s calorie total and breakdown were as follows:
Calories: 5899
Carbs: 558
Protein: 469
Fat: 209
(37/32/31)
I’m going to stick with tomorrow’s planned rest day, as I feel that I really benefit from a day without work or the gym each week. I should be fully recovered and reattempting my chest and triceps workout on Sunday. My leg workout will most likely be moved to Monday.

I should be changing or adding a gym sometime in the next month. One of my old strength coaches is opening a "sports specific" gym and I'll have access to a lot of things that I'm currently missing. It includes a boxing ring, which should be interesting. I'll definitely be fired up for my next workout.

Luckily I looked at your pull up numbers and felt masculine again.
Good luck with your back injury. I will PM my address so you can send the remainder of the bottle to me.
Serious? Not serious.
Ok, maybe serious.
Thanks Ben. You should've seen how pathetic my pull up numbers got at the beginning of last year.
You're in luck. I have family from Wantage in Oxfordshire over here currently (first time meeting them). I'll see if it can be hand-delivered.

Day 19 (this is moving too fast)
I probably got more sleep than I have since starting PA and I feel great as a result. Sleep was deep and I only got up once to use the bathroom.
I had 1 cap PA with Focus XT first thing this morning. I didn’t notice anything different from the normal effects I get from FXT alone.
I weighed in at 209.6lbs (+2.6lbs from “Day 1”) shortly after waking up. I’m still somewhat surprised that I haven’t added a little more weight considering my caloric intake, but the composition of the weight has me impressed and helps explain why I haven’t added more. PA seems to have taken any fat gain out of the equation (still might have dropped a little too) and left me with what appears to be the addition LBM only. Changes in muscle density, fullness, and definition are becoming more apparent to me as well. I’ve been noticing this more, particularly in my chest and shoulders as of late. Vascularity is also continuing to improve.
Breakfast this morning was great and not having to rush to work made it even more enjoyable.
Invalid Link Removed
Eggs(3) with pepper jack cheese, hash browns, uncured turkey bacon (4 strips), organic chicken sausage (4 links), Ezekial English muffin with light cream cheese
The calorie total was less than expected, but my activity level will be minimal today and I have plenty of time left to eat.

Day 20
I had another night of good sleep and may have slept through the night without interruption.
My weight is back up after yesterday’s day off from work/gym and is currently 212.2lbs (+5.2lbs from “Day 1”). The extra weight doesn’t look to be affecting my appearance negatively, as I woke up pretty lean and vascular. The recently acquired veins running from my lower abdomen (very low) to the top of my legs are now visible consistently. I believe this is the first time I’ve ever had any sort of vascularity showing in the upper portion of my legs.
At this point I’m thinking USPlabs looks to have a winning product with PA. It’s hard to think any supplements that yield such a variety of positive effects, especially in only a few weeks. I’m hoping the effects/results only get better over the next 10 days. I would imagine an 8 week run would provide serious results for those who know how to get the most out of their supplementation. I’m already looking forward to picking up a couple bottles with the IC release and experiencing it myself.
My breakfast was similar to yesterday’s, but I made a few changes to keep me from growing tired of the same thing.

Day 20 continued
The great workouts are starting to pile up. I was a little worried going into today’s routine that I might not see much progress after a good jump in numbers last week, but ended up with improvements on everything. It was somewhat of a relief when strength was up on my first set and I was locked into my workout from there on out.

The results I’m getting as of late are making my gym experience about as fun as it can get.

255x5 (255x4)
255x5 (265x3)

150x5
drop
90x8
I didn’t notice much of a rise in body temperature when I arrived at the gym, but did work up a good sweat throughout my workout.
Pumps and vascularity were both strong. My chest started to blow up with the first exercise while staying fairly low rep and the veins throughout my arms were popping out like crazy.
My calories are on track and I’ll have today’s totals posted later tonight.

Another solid workout my man. Can only imagine the differences in day 1 pic to now.
How had strength gain been progressing before PA?

Thanks man. Hopefully pictures will show some differences. I'll do my best to have the same lighting so there can be a good comparison.
Strength was progressing, but also slowing down leading up to my PA run. I wasn't really seeing any 5-10lb jumps between workouts and was happy with a rep increase on a couple lifts.

Day 20 continued
I had a lot of eating to do once I got back from the gym today because I was a little behind my normal calorie pace. I just finished up my last meal, leaving me with a large surplus for a non-working day. I’m still impressed each day with how my average intake can be at this level without seeing any negative impact on my body composition…fascinating lol.
Today’s calorie total and breakdown were as follows:
Calories: 5462
Carbs: 519
Protein: 396
Fat: 210
(37/29/34)
I’ll be back at work in the morning and most likely counting down the hours until I can head to the gym. There’s nothing like solid results to keep motivation high.

Day 21
I got 5-6 hours of what felt like quality sleep. I woke up not feeling very tired at all, but still wanting nothing to do with getting up for work.
My weight probably reached a high for the week at 213.4lbs (+6.4lbs from “Day1”) this morning. Now I have to play the waiting game and see where I end up after shedding some water from a few days of work/gym.
Breakfast was about the same as yesterday, with a few minor changes in portion size.
Breakfast calorie total and breakdown:
Calories: 1547
Carbs: 97
Protein: 77
Fat: 95
Now that I’m 3 weeks into my run and have a good feel for PA’s effects, I’m looking forward to reading through some of the logs and seeing if others are having a similar experience.

So breezy, have you seen a steady gain in weight? That question sounds stupid on face value but we know it goes up & down based on activity, food, water etc.
I mean around the same day each week (within a day or so) you see your "peak" then levels out, but is at a steady gain. Hope that makes sense....
Kind of like
Edit:my homade graph DEF didnt work out lmao

Lol I missed seeing your graph, but yeah it makes sense. Once I got my calorie target dialed in, there's been a steady increase. I've been adding about a pound a week, which is great considering the composition of the weight. I'm hoping to bottom out +3-4lbs at some point this week. I'll probably have a good idea of where I stand in a day or two.

Companies should line up to provide Breezy with supplements to log. With this amount of detail and control, they may even be able to use his results in a real ad. Ready to model for a mag Breezy ? (no homo)
Awesome job and congrats on winning new stash of USP goodies ! Well deserved.

Thanks for the kind words fumoney. I'm just trying to live up to the likes of your logs. I'm making some progress, but don't think I'm quite camera ready lol.
Thanks again. It was unexpected and I couldn't be happier about it.

Day 21 continued
It was one of the longest workdays I’ve had in a while and my energy was great from start to finish. I was in a good mood as well, which I believe was due to having some extra energy. I’m still uncertain if PA is directly related to this, but the change is more than welcome. Being that it was only Monday, I would generally have more energy anyways. I’ll be looking to see if it holds up as the week progresses before officially giving credit to PA.
I didn’t have as much time as I would’ve liked for a workout, but I made it to the gym and got some work done.
The following was dosed pre workout:
1 cap Patented Anabolic
100mg caffeine
2 scoops Craze
2g ALCAR
2.5 scoops Protocol
1 scoop I-BCAA Max was used intra workout
I made solid progress again with everything performed. There weren’t any big lifts, but I was happy with what was accomplished. I didn’t have much time, so I picked up the pace and was impressed to see that strength didn’t take a hit.

-The super sets brought an extreme pump and vascularity to go with it. My arms locked up in some pain and my veins looked like they were about ready to explode. The vascularity that I’ve started seeing on the top of my forearms is becoming more prominent.
My calories remained on target and I finished the day with a good surplus.
Today’s calorie total and breakdown were as follows:
Calories: 6106

It’s been a busy day and it’s looking like sleep won’t be optimal, but I should get enough to be feeling fine tomorrow.
