Olympus Labs Ep15tane Perfect Stack Log (Unsponsored)

Op-epi is particularly brutal on you joints. Just an opinion but I would cut out the wide grip work you have been doing ie bench, push ups and the lat pull downs really a lot of unnecessary stress on multiple joints. The only remedy I have found for this for myself is to run a test base either dermacrine or stano or both others use trest. Which I am not a fan of.
 
Im on 2 1/2 week EP15STANE (45mg) now n have had virtually no sides at all! Only thing I can say is lethargy starting to hit me now!
 
Day 11- Friday 8pm

Felt really good pre-work out. No sides all day and felt like I had a lot of energy. Today was leg day and I didn't have any pain in my knee to start but it returned after the 1st set so I kept it light.

Deep Squats-

135x10x5

Calf Raises-

135x30x5

Weighted Lunges-

90x15x3

My knee was killing me and had to stop on the lunges. I've always had knee issues from football and being fat but I'll get through it. Just another obstacle.

Your cycle seems to be going ok! You mention hiking. How you getting on with that? I'm nearly on week 3 of same cycle now & when I seem to walk a long distance my calf's are in agony! No joke they pump up like hell! Any thoughts or recommendations?

Its going good so far... Not sure about your calves, maybe taurine would help?

1st day of the FST-7. I have to say the pumps I got from this were amazing. The 1st day was biceps and triceps.

I'm a little concerned with the increase in BF%, I eat fairly clean but I did eat some pizza for dinner last night. I was comparing the photo from when I started to one I took last night and it would appear my abs are not as visible. I'm going to add some cardio to hopefully reduce the BF%
 
Day 15- Tuesday 9pm

I had to change up the workout a little bit because most of the leg workout on the FST-7 used machines or leg attachment which I don't have. My knee started hurting again from the very beginning. It's weird because it only hurts on leg day, I guess it doesn't like the added weight.

Weighted Lunges

70x10(each leg)x4

Squats

135x12x1
155x10x1
175x8x1
195x8x1

Stiff-Legged Deadlift

135x10x3

Barbell Hack Squats

135x10x3
135x8x4

Standing Calf Raises

135x12x7

It was a good workout. I need to find a leg attachment for my bench by next week so I can do more of the recommended exercises.

Day 16- Weds

This is supposed to be my off day but I'm still messed up over this increase in body fat percentage so I decided to walk a couple miles on the treadmill. I got a mile in and my legs felt pretty good so i decided to jog the other mile. When I got to the second mile I felt like I could keep going so I went another mile. So without going all Forrest Gump that was all I could handle. My legs were shot after doing legs on Tuesday and cardio on Wednesday I felt like I was going to need Lt. Dan's wheelchair to make it into work today.

Today is Chest and Triceps.

I started a cycle a few weeks back and my bp skyrocketed and gave me killer headaches so I pulled the plug early. Now, I've got extra hawthorn extract that I'll use when I crank it back up. Prolly run it at 1500-2500 ed at that time.

I meant to say supplementing 6 - 8g a day of taurine. I have not experience headaches yet. I want to get some of that Hawthorne extract I wonder how affective it is?
 
I know Wicked used 3000mg hawthorn + 600 or more ALA for his bp twice and it stayed in check. Also, just reading random reviews, people that are not steroid users have a good experience also for the most part.
 
Well it won't hurt to try it for sure. Is it one of those things that are supposed to build up in your system first?
 
Yes. I believe it will initially slightly raise bp. It is one of the supps to "preload" so that the initial spike is passed
 
I had back pumps pretty bad for a couple days but I supplemented 3g of taurine and they go away pretty quick. I haven't had any issues for 3 or 4 days now.

Taurine + Glucosamine (liquid preferable for the joints) people are find the perfect cycles to very beneficial because AR1MACARE Pro combines Tudca with a potent ai.

Today (weds) is supposed to be my off day but I will be out of town this weekend to I will be doing chest and triceps tonight.

I have been feeling really bloated for about a week now and I'm guessing its my sodium intake. I'm going to cut it out a bit and see if it gets any better...
