Ha! Awesome that you found more pills!

Holy ish, bicep curls!! Damn.
 
Thanks fellas. I'm commanding my biceps to grow! I can't remember the trainer that screams that as he works biceps but it's hilarious to watch the video.

Nice Kenpo! How many notches does the bench have that you're using here?

What's your plan with calorie intake being that you continue to make lean gains? Stay the same?

Thanks RJ! The bench I'm using is an Ironmaster and it has 12 notches I believe. My 6th notch is right at 45 degrees.

My plan for calories: I've been experimenting. At 2500=no gain, at 3000=belly fat gains. I'm thinking stay at 2800? Hmmmm?

Don't just look at calories. How are the macros? You could be at 3k calories with much of it being carbs and gain belly fat and you could have 3k cals and most of it protein and fats. Different ways to play with diet

I agree with this^.

Do you use MyFitnessPal or anything similar to manage cals?

Oh agree. I initially started with this:

Target Macros: 200 /250 /65 g p/c/f 800+1000+585 about 2500 cals

Now: 200 /400 /65 g p/c/f 800+1600+585 about 3000 cals

Using Cals&Macros Tracking app on the iPhone. I log everything. Maybe it's a phobia I have about putting on the belly fat. My Dad was a big bellied, pear-shaped guy and I swore to never look like that. So I increase cals until I see the waist increasing then pull back.
 
Day 24 Weight 164.0 +4 lbs

This was a early morning weight after visiting the throne so it's a real weight. Up 4 lbs. Interesting that it's the last day of FOCUS. Boy, I wish I had some Max Bulk to take for a test drive.

Hey AndroFactory, today in the mail I received a second bottle of FOCUS that I didn't order! Nice surprise! Can I run it?
 
I have no authority to say this, but seeing as it's your last day & an executive decision must be made here (plus it doesn't really make any sense for you NOT to run it, on a personal level), I'm saying to go for it. You've been a fantastic logger so far for us Kenpo; you're very detailed & honest in your logging.

Do it. If this is a mistake & we can't afford to let you have it then I'll personally have them dock my rep rewards to offest it. I want you to see what you can keep doing on Focus.

Make us here at Andro Factory proud :)

Wow. Now that's awesome. I'll have to agree, Kenpo is a great logger. Also, I want to see how much more weight he can add!
 
Focus is our clone of AndroDrive more or less, with our delivery system. I can't recall exactly how much, but Primordial equated the total amount of androgens for all its products/wk to how much test/wk it would be equal too. And AD, while weaker than their AndroMass ( similar to our infamous Bulk UP), was still definitely equal to a high cruise dose of test. I wanna say 200mg/wk. That's about the max any endocrinologist will give you, often 100-175 at most. And Ken is taking extra, so I'm not suprised at all to see the waist trimming & the lean mass increasing :)

Hyde, you are a gentleman and a scholar! Thanks so much for this offer. I want to see what a total of 6 weeks on FOCUS can do. If this 2nd bottle of FOCUS was a mistake then let me know and I'll pay for it. Thank you for your very kind offer but I'd rather your rep rewards not be docked. Thank you again my brother in iron!
 
Day 25 Weight 163.4 +3.4 lbs

A very hearty thank you to AF rep Hyde for giving me the opportunity to log a second bottle of FOCUS that I received from AF by mistake!

Still feeling great on FOCUS at 2 caps/ day. I'm in a good mood, have energy in the gym and a spring in my step. It's amazing what an anabolic boost can do to the older lifter's body.

That's my main man! PR here, PR there, PR's everywhere! lol glad to see it's doing you well.

Any sides you've noticed? Any testicular atrophy or anything? I don't expect much, but curious to see how it's treating you.

Good lifting to you and to all PRs!
 
Looks like someone else took the week of Thanksgiving off too! So nice to get some stuff done & have a bit more time to lift without feeling so hassled. Got to get some chores & Christmas shopping done today & even visited my dad. Painting's a big project, but much better when you're not trying to jam it into a weekend.

How do you like that Acute FX? People seem to be saying good things. I bet your delts were gonna explode after all those heavy raises!

Thanks brother. This is a busy time of year, isn't it ? I see in your log you're just as busy.

Really feeling great and keep increasing workout volume.

Acute FX is a good PWO and combined with UnCut it's phenomenal for energy and focus.

Lats are feeling good surprisingly. I'm trying for a chin-up PR of 3 sets of 20 by January.

Deadlift PR!!! That's the most satisfying for me. Biggest weight I'll move, and the most whole body lift there is. Squatting may be the best lower-body movement, but the deadlift is considered the best overall test of strength any lift offers. You lift weights? Pick up something heavy off the ground & stand up straight with it. That's as straightforward as it gets. You should be proud of this baby. 365 is around the corner.
