TGR's Cheetos Chraining

gymwrenchwv said:
U get cleared from the docs to go all out yet??
Click to expand...

I was told to start back easy, and I am. If I got specific with weight amounts with the docs they'd probably say something else.

When I pulled my groin in November the doc said I should never squat heavy again. So, I avoid specifics with emaciated doctors.
 
First lift looked solid! Normally for it to feel heavy after time off.. as Mark said muscle memory will have you back in the swing of things in no time...

I will be consuming that case of muscle milk that I thought was .50¢/bottle the day of my surgery...

What was this?
 
Thanks bro.

I went to the restaurant supply store all doped up with one eye. Ended up buying a case of muscle milk for $2.?? each , but thought they were .50¢ each when I first put them in the cart.
 
Calories ended at 2,284 with 248p/217/44 and 35g fibers.

I took EC 12.5/200 once and never had any BP issues and the crash wasn't really that bad. Might try for two doses tomorrow.

Do you tabs come in 12.5 .. or are you splitting at 25mg?

Hmm... I'm not splitting. Maybe they are 25's?? I was pretty certain they weren't, but I'll check tomorrow. I left them in my work car.

It is only legal in Canada (dont say it) to sell them in 8mg tablets which are tiny. So I just take 3 x 8 at each dosing. Are you getting Ephedrine HCL there or is this the bronchal medication you can get over the counter?

It's behind the counter, but a Rx is not required. They ID, I believe. I'm almost certain it's 12.5. Drewsickle recommended I work up to 25mg.

It's Primatene (something).
 
Hmmmm you'd be fine .. i dose 24/200 x 3 per day.. right from day one. That said, if you mean due to your eyes. If not there is really no need to ramp up.

Maybe I'll try that. Does anyone dose 12.5? Have I been wasting it? Lol
 
wasme said:
ya some dose 12.5/100 or like you 12.5/200 but you'll find 25/200 more effective

wasme said:
As long as your eye is ok. Can't stress that enough...
Click to expand...

Yeah, imma wait another week to try 25.

I do 100 if I've had other caffeine product(s) recently. Might drop my afternoon cup of coffee.
 
Slept like a rock... after midnight.

I will probably take my magnesium and niacin earlier tonight just in case. Also, less water just before bed.

Doesn't faking niacin make ur skin burn and itch??
Click to expand...
Not if you use the timed release version, I believe it's called niacinamide. I did read that regular niacin or nicotinic acid is better but it does have the flush/itching sides.

Click to expand...

The stuff I have says it's "flush-free", and I've never experienced those things. It makes my skin turn a slight blush for about 10-15 mins.

I've noticed that when I take it before bed it makes it 100% easier to fall asleep after waking to pee.

Not sure which kind mine is.

You got my curiosity up about the forms of niacin compounds. It looks like nicotinic acid (plain flush type niacin) is the best. Take a look here:

Nice job for just getting back into things. Looks like you really didn't loose to much strength or endurance. Kill those weights!

Looks pretty on point to me señor

Thanks muchacho.

How good did it feel to hit some chest and shoulders?!
Click to expand...

It was nice. Looking back I wish I had done more with my chest. I just picked a few from the Meadows routine but didn't really pay attention to his instructions.

Thanks Mark. It wasn't too shabby for not lifting in a month. I'm not going to lie though, it all felt heavy. Those DB's especially, and I wasn't bad on DB presses in the past.
 
Man, what a long day...
 
Calories were 2,173 with 247p/176/50 and 35g fibers.

I took EC 12.5/100 @ 0800 and 1330; no issues of any kind. Just a slight increase in energy and some appetite suppression.

Undecided about what to do tomorrow. Maybe some back and cardio...
 
Took a rest day today. Woke up at 0330 feeling sore and tired, so I went back to bed.

ISYMFS! Jk don't forget that you are still healing the eyes. Your body "tells" you what you need. Heal up brother.
 
RegisterJr said:
I already regret it... :(
Click to expand...
Don't feel that way. Your body needs the energy and nutrients to heal those eyes. Rest, relax and have a good meal.
 
gymwrenchwv said:
Regret lifting hard or taking the day off??
Click to expand...

Taking the day off. At least I kept the calories at bay today.

Agree with kenpo - listen to your body.

I know, but you know that feeling you get when you take a day off. Especially after being off for so long.

Looking forward to tomorrow though!
 
Calories will end at 1,957 with 177p/169c/60f and 20g fibers.

Lol. Hows it looking to start throwing weight around again?
 
wasme said:
Next week sometime.. Saw the doctor today.. returning to work Monday.. i figure if i can go to work, I can lift.. (just will keep it light for now)
Click to expand...

Too bad we don't live closer to each other. We could spot each other on pink DB squats.
 
Patience is a virtue. I never possessed much of it, but that's what they tell me :dunno:

As long as you're doing the best you can, you should be proud - and right now the best you can do is rest & recover & don't slack on nutrition, which you've been doing admirably on. So power to you!

Notes:

Most of my movements were slow and with a squeeze. No impressive weight today but I feel really good about it.
 
Nice work there man. It's not about the weights man. controlled n good form better than heavy and sloppy, any day!
 
Nice workout man. Slow and controlled is great for that mind muscle connection
