Well.....I have been out of the gym again due to a bad chest cold, and will hopefully try to lift again tomorrow. What else can go wrong this month?!
I'm still taking my RK-500 three times a day, plus my TK-500's around four times per day. Diet has been way off and unfortunately sugar has been the main issue
I definitely don't look the same as I did 3 weeks ago, but honestly feel like I should look a lot worse than I actually do! I hope that makes sense (I'm on a lot of meds) and I'm thinking the TTA-500 and RK have warded off some of the fluff:thumbsup:

It's good stuff huh?!? I mixed a teeny bit in an adult beverage over the weekend....cause it's the holiday's and all!!
I have in the past but it hurt my lower back too much to do it very often. I think the moral to the back injury story is....I need to start concentrating on strengthening my lower back again. Suggestions, besides dead lift's??

That's why I kinda asked cause I read you were having pain.... so I figured the dead lifts were a no go....

Good mornings and back extensions
If there is a decent trainer around you, go have an imbalance assessment done for like 100 bones, its worth it. Once you get imbalances taken care of a lot of pain goes away. A lot of times they can see it just by how you walk and carry yourself.
Also make sure to stretch the wheels and that helps quite a bit! I have lower back problems too

You know what? I think I asked for suggestions in my last log, but never really worked on it....oops!! I will ask around about a imbalance assessment. This is the 1st pinched nerve that I've ever had, and figured it might be due to all the plyometric moves that I've incorporated in my routine for the last 3 mths. I am good about stretching though...
Thank you sir!!I will google "F-ING" back extensions!! HA!!!
:wave: That's right man. New avay again, huh ?!?

Yes sir..... I did too, but was running 3-4 caps before each main meal, three times a day. I bloated and cramped up like crazy. This time I'm only taking 2-4 caps per day..... live and learn

every time i start something new i always say i will probably make every mistake possible, but i will only make it once!!!

Welcome Ms Mac!! No cramping when taking 3-4 caps daily, but I spread them out over 24 hrs so, maybe that helps?? Did you start out w/ 4 caps or work your way up?? What else are you taking w/ the TTA??
HA!! Yeah, I used to over dose everything, but now I'm quite the opposite....if a serving size is a scoop, I'll start off with maybe a fourth. Kind-of a wimp now....unlike you!!

yes...but you notice i only took a 1/4 teaspoon of bulk yohimbe 1 time!!!! :shocked:

Wednesday-
AM- Took one scoop of Focus XT before fasted morning cardio. Workout lasted 90 mins and consisted of several set's of walking lunges with and w/out weights, step up's w/weights, step up's on the high box jump, and 30 mins on the elliptical.
Dosed 2 Reduce XT's and 2 RK-500's through out the day. Diet was clean

Legs followed with elliptical, she's ingot tired just reading it.
I've wanted to try Focus-XT for years now but never get around to it. Don't see a lot of logs but profile looks stellar. I just picked up ALCAR bc I was following Gokix log & remembered how great SNS ALCAR is. Perhaps FocusXT will be next. Stellar for my daily fasted cardio, focus, energy and help me stay lean this off-season.
You liking it so far, ehh?

Come on DW, it was a light leg workout using pretty much body weight along w/ 12.5 dumbbells!! Like I said lite weight!!
I've also been reading up on ALCAR and might end up adding that in to the mix later, looks like a great product. So far Focus XT has done the job, but I haven't had serious time dosing it due to being out of the gym lately. So far it hasn't given me out of control energy, but it has provided me with nice focus.
I see you perform fasted cardio too, how long is each session and what equipment do you usually utilize?

The thought of cardio makes me cringe, lol.
I do 45min 4-5 days a week, sometimes 6. I just walk on the treadmill, 10incline 3.0-3.3 speed. I'm looking at adding the stair master though, 30min of that followed by the treadmill for 15min. I'll probably start that when I bump cals up heavy after the 1st.

I need to add the stair master back in too. My new goal will be 30 mins a day as well!
Friday-
I decided to skip the gym because I still have the funk
thought I was good to go a few day's ago, but I guess that was not the case!!Took two Reduce XT,three RK-500's and five TTA-500 caps throughout the day.
Diet has been WAY OFF and honestly feel like a fat slob!!!
I would list what I've eaten today, but basically it's all sugar!!
I think i might have a big bowl of cookie crisp before I go to bed!!

Great idea, as we have been school'd & that's clearly the holy grail :rofl:
I'll actually be doing this soon but it's part of my carb-backload-ish personal plan. It's also post workout

Yes sir, now we know that we can eat what ever we want before bed and still make changes.
New dilemma: should I stick w/ Cookie Crisp's or go for Trix cause you know they are for kid's!! :dance: Okay.....I'm done!!! Maybe
I think your personal plan sounds just fine

Yeah it's all apart of insulin manipulation but it's nothing crazy, I'll still only top out about 200gr/carbs on lifting days only. Clean foods FTW!

HA HA!! Good idea!!
200 grams??!! Are you sure that's not too low sir?
I went up to 100 grams per day for almost 2 mths and actually had a hard time eating that amount before my alloted time. Are you competing in the Spring?

I was J/K about the ceral, but all of the above sounds pretty damn good. Wait....what about Count Chocula??
I will let Mr. Distilled Water answer that one!!

I'm hoping its not too high! No, after much thought I think I am going to take the entire year to add quality size. I have a lot going on this next year so it should work out nicely. Hoping to be at the top of middleweights in 2014 with feathered glutes!
Ugh, where do I start? LOL!

Lmao, you guys got me rolling.....
Well, to summarize. MissQ and I were offering advice on losing weight and we were told by a small group that eating clean isn't important, it's just calories that matter. Carbs are carbs blah blah blah. It was me mentioned one person got to low bf by eating cereal before bed.
What they fail to mention, the entire time, is they're carb backloading. Which, IMO is not for novice people. As I mentioned before it leaves a great deal of opportunity for over eating.
We both pretty much said, if it was as simple as "a calorie is a calorie" and eating nothing but ice cream was ok for all your calories, everyone would be 6% body-fat.
End rant :lol:
Did I summarize well, MissQ?

Well it's Christmas morning- MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone!! Ican't decide if I should keep going with my horrendous diet or try and eat clean today. We have a family brunch to attend this morning and there will be plenty of homemade egg casserole and coffee cake served, so what should I do?!? Very important question, I know!!!
My diet has bascically been full of sweets for day's, and honeslty last night I got to the point where I couldn't eat anymore sugar w/out feeling nauseous. I won't embarrass myself by getting in to what I've been eating, or the amount's, but let's just say it's upwards in the 8,000 calorie range!!! I ran out of my SNS RK-500's and had to purchase more at walmart last night!! I'm going through about 6-8 TK-500 caps per day and I think they are causing my head to ache a bit. So, back to my MAJOR dilmea.....go for one more day or clean it up and mentally prepare to get back in the gym tomorrow and start working off the fluff!!
Merry Christmas!!! How are you guy's spending your morning???
