I swear I need to learn some of these routines. I'm so stuck on the old basic crap.

I use a mixture of both...I cycle about 5 routines right now and occasionally others make it in.

Yeah I believe we all need mixing in our routines. Some times I just get stuck in a rut! I tried to see what you had linked me but it had a ton links and couldn't find it

PX is shining now. It kinda took a back seat with all the benefits I felt from max pump, but, its in full force.
I still have a crazy appetite which I would like to control more, but very very very happy this far.
Pants feeling looser around lega after being freshly washed and been pissing a lot now so I guess I'm starting to drop that extra bloat or water.
Keep em coming

PX gets pretty fuggin strong when it's working full force, keeps getting stronger for about 2 weeks and then there seem to be some additional spikes after that even. Can get you off guard.

Just wasn't feeling it today. No fluency, every movement felt like a I had to move the weight other than letting my body find that tempo to feel the movement.
Not sure what it was.
Going to go back to 1 cap pre. See how that treats me.
Not blaming PX, just one of those days. First in a while.
Moved some weight for reps, but missing that mind/muscle connection.

these poor days always happen, and out of the blue..
when it's a minority issue tho - this is good thing!

Yes it's a rarity for me but they happen and sometimes when you don't expect sometimes you can see it coming.

I hate those days man. Sometimes no matter what your taking or how on point sleep or diet is, these days just happen.
Hope it gets better bud.

I have had a very stressful week.
I have not had that much caffeine so that has somewhat mitigated any cortisol (excess).
The G8 has been a godsend this week especially with uni, training and family life...the stress that could have been there wasn't. I have had a deep sleep every night and I am glad I haven't built up tolerance yet.
The PX black has been awesome. Sweaty as every training session ( i need to carry a second shirt with me during training).
Focus is intense, and I dropped it down to 1 cap morning, 1 cap afternoon. This is my sweet spot...not too much stimulation, but enough to get me going.
weight is still the sam, straight after a carb up, so, that means one thing, I am going to be leaner come Wednesday after I have flushed the excess water out.
Played well yesterday, had lots of endurance. I'm almost out of PX black and about 4 serves of G8 left...let's just say, this review is gonna get lengthy!!!
Strength is still up, and even more so on the snatch grip deads...my endurance is crazy with the plyometric assistance work (i.e band resisted push ups etc).
