Madds87, Contest Prep for Coastal USA Bodybuilding August 17th!

Well Sigh*..... Im back at work for the week. Im on radio watch for tonight.... Im not aloud to leave so Im just sitting around eating and doing push ups....

Couple updates: Bought some ghrp6, cjc no dac, Get my hunger back up and squared away. The nausea went away so im back on 4000 cals. Im going to try to shoot up to 5000 to play a little catch up. The peptides should help out with sleeping too. Lately im not sleeping well either.

Notes on Bulk Up: My nips were a little sensitive from finishing up a cycle in the past. Since i started the Bulk Up i noticed the sensitivity went away. I also had to change the dosage times. I changed to taking the pills before i go to bed. I also noticed that for me i need to take this with food. If not my stumach hurts or i get this sleepy feeling all day. Its turning into a pretty sweet sleeping pill for me lol. Last night is when i tried the nighttime dosage. Seemed to work pretty well. the day before yesterday i tried taking it with a full stumach. Worked well.

I'm in the same boat work wise lately bro. Every time I see a post from you about your gut I feel bad as I know what you're goin through. Even though it may not be related to Crohn's it's still in your digestive system somewhere and that just sucks. I'm going to get some peptides here shortly and will need some help with dosing etc etc i you're available broski. Good luck with work this week man.

Bulk Up:
*Still looking really bulked up! go figure hence the name lol
*Cramps are bad, easy to manage but your blood is def pumping!
*Starting to see some strength gains starting the third week. I figured it would kick in about now.
*Hunger isnt really increased. No effect on hunger. Noticing that im thining out for some strange reason. My cals are at 4000, on cheat days 4500-5000 easily.
* 190lbs is my weight right now. Guess im loosing fat since im looking thiner in the mirror.
*19 weeks out
*Joints feel great!
*Body still is lethargic. Not as bad as before since i moved dosages to night time. Have to have my black coffee in the morning.
*Def filling out. Veins are looking vascular.

Sry about the updates fellas. Things are slowing down. 3-4 workout days, are now going to be bumped up to 5-6 times a week. Time to start focusing on calves forearms and abs. Those i never really have to focus on much. Thank God for my abs cause i hate working them lol.

I would really like to get to 200. We will see i have a small window and have 9 weeks left to gain that muscle. :) Might not be a possibility, but anything is possible ;).

I have a theory of hitting all muscle fibers and getting as much blood into the muscle before lifting heavy weight. I firmly believe in shocking the muscle. My rep scheme will vary from 3 reps to 20 reps. The 100 reppers low weight is for just warming up the joints and muscle.
I dont believe in placing a bunch of heavy weight on the muscles. If you do plan on lifting heavy. Burn out your muscles as much as possible with medium reps first. Then throw the heavy weight on. You will notice that your muscles cant lift as much and the lift will be harder which is a whole different game changer. Plus I do not believe in maxing. Maybe out of curiosity.

I dont really plan my workouts. I go with the flow. Once I start to get closer and closer to the comp. Thats when you have to be strict for sculpting.

Shoulders exploded! Lol.... relly felt full and pumped. Went to go eat a chicken sandwich with cole slaw with some family straight from the gym and they were all like "holy smokes! You been working out much?" Always good to hear.
When I went out to go shoot some pool with some friends, I was getting all sorts of looks more so then usual. One chick actually came up to me out of the blue and squeezed my arms saying "I like a man that can take charge". I looked at her and said "so does my girlfriend" lol.

Weight is at 195! My body blew up this week! Well see what the rest has to offer. Sex drive is still golden.
Only bad side im noticing is that im more exhausted easily. Might be cause of the more weight im carrying. I dunno well see. Im looking huge though!
 
Busy week once again at work. Next month ill be rolling out for school to get another liscense for work. Working to get my captains liscense. Eventually.

Once im in alabama though ill have to figure out what my training schedule will be like. I know ill be busy with the books. But will atleast get some training in. These tests will be really hard. So I will have to be diligent.

Hopefully tonight gonna try to get some back in mostly focus on my lower back training.

Bulk up is given me a def noticable physique. Im loving this stuff honestly.

I have to go to school in june and might be hard on diet and training. So I figure I need to get ready early before then.

Workouts have been intense! One of my bodybuilding buddies has become a roommate of mine. His name is richard. Richard and I have been hitting the gym hard. Hes mostly just kicking my butt. Im not used to these kinda workouts. Heres an example of the 1000 rep workout that I did today actually. Your a freekin man if you dont puke after this.

Leg extensions: 50reps, 40reps, 30reps, 20reps, 10reps, last set you pyramid with the weight and reps. Start at 10 reps strip weight now 20 reps, strip weight now 30 reps, strip weight now 40 reps.
Stripping is all one set.

Ok so that workout concept is used for every single lift. Like today I did.
Leg extensions, leg curls, leg press, and squats last. Squats for the 50 and 40 rep my legs were burning.... I couldnt feel them.... I actually dont remember the half of my workout....

My workouts have been similar to this. But not as extreme, just volume training. Really have been noticing a size difference. I am weighing at 182. So leaning down.

Plans have changed once again lol....

I have been trying to lean down to a nice weight. Once I do that im going to keep it at a low weight so prep will be easier. The comp will prob have to be bumped to a later date. But we will see after this work training I have to do for a month. I have no idea what the school will provide. Gym? Food? How many meals? Etc. So ill find out and will keep yall updated.

Work has been so insane and stressfull that it has been affecting my bodybuilding. But it should slow down pretty soon... after june... it has been so crazy...

But the plan is still august 17th. We will see though.
 
Ok supplement update. Added some focus formula for my A.D.D. to help me studying and maybe even for working out. Also for my stress levels im taking some panax genseng 500mg x 2. Only been two days of taking and I have already been noticing the difference. Worked out some chest a little. Im working this week so I was short for time once again. Burned them out with some push ups wide press. Im really starting to see my veins in my shoulders which is a good sign. Its letting me know that my bf% is going down.
 
Omg.... im glad that school is over with....
That was rediculously hard. But everyone can call me captain now....

I didnt get to workout at all. I was staying up late every single night studying and studying for 19 days....

But I got me some. ;) lol

Now I can start back up.... im so excited and ready!

Things have finally calmed down....
Me and my old lady broke up too so even more time....

Looking more jacked lol.
That's a good way to think about a break up, now you can just **** bitches and get huge and not have to deal with the wining
 
Good to hear you're back. Think about all the time you can spend eating or lifting or pinning now that you don't have to spend that time with a broad.
 
Right!? I agree fellas.... bodybuilding is such a single mans sport lol.

Me and my budies have decided to get after a competition all together next year. This year has been way to screwed up. We have this growing competition in savannah ga. Its called the southern isles. It will be some hard competition but in a year I think I could do. I have the right team and focus for it.

Preciate yall still being subbed lol.... the beginning of this log got all messed up....
