Bam Bam Goes Caveman-Mode: A Training Log

FitExpress said:
Do these peptides really do wonders?

No, I wouldn't say that. They work in more subtle ways, so after a couple months you look back and say damn, now they're starting to make a difference.

Pretty jealous of that massage. I need one bad.

Yeah I really needed it as well. You could almost hear the lumps pop and disperse as she pushed them out. I feel like this will ultimately lead to a more defined, stronger, and bigger back. I'm glad she worked on my hamstrings and calves too, those puppies were TIGHT.
I plan on going back once a month, as well as start stretching before and after training as well as before bed.
 
Pretty good leg day today. I got Ep1c Unleashed caps and TD coming by the end of the week, really excited to see what those can do for me. Plus they'll keep me occupied so I don't hop back on cycle too early.
Thinking of starting the cycle off with:
Diabolix 60mg/day 6 weeks
Andro Elite 250mg/day 6 weeks
Test e 300mg/week
Then I'll bridge that right into:
250mg test cyp per week
600mg EQ per week
Maybe toss another oral in there like dbol or something. End the run with test EQ and tren ace
 
Oh and today's workout:

Single: 65x20
Both: 145x20, 190x15, 215x12, 245x12

I was going to say check the quality on your peps or check your BAC water and make sure it is not expired or has not become contaminated.

Yeah, I may just throw it out to be safe, it's just weird because the HGH frag that I reconstituted at the same time doesn't give me that problem.
 
Short sweet back workout today:
Pull-ups: 4 sets 10 reps

Pendlay rows
135x12, 185x8, 225x6, 2x245x5

My 11-kt, 1-andro, and androsterone all arrived today and it's VERY hard not to start them all right now. Just gotta hold out till the EU gets here tomorrow and I can start that.
For being off cycle, I've been getting pretty good pumps and gaining some weight, so I should probably take advantage of that and stay off the proper length of time and do this right. If I can make a bunch of natty gains that's perfect.
 
Ok, so my Ep1c shipment came in but they forgot to include the oral so all I have is the bottle of TD. So I applied two pumps a while ago and about to do an extra arm workout instead of taking the day off. Yolo

For sure! I just hate feeling like I left something on the table, you know? But I guess working to complete exhaustion isn't always the ideal thing to do.
 
Next time you are running short like that on legs just finish it off with a widow maker. EI pick a weight for squats that you can barely hit 15 reps with then hit 20 with it before you put it down. Basically by the end of the set you will end up doing Rest Pauses while holding the bar and don't re-rack it until you get to 20. Just "rest" while standing. If you do it right you will need to rest pause between each of your last 3-4 reps just to finish it. I think these are done best when taken ATG or at least below parallel.

Yeah and if you end that with 2 - 1 minute long DC Quad stretches it is even crazier!

That looks absolutely horrendous haha, gonna have to try that on leg day #2 this week

Oh yeah it is brutal but when you stand up from the stretch you can actually see the blood rush in and fill those legs since the stretch occludes them.
 
Well now that classes are over I SHOULD have plenty of time for my workouts... But when your girlfriend makes you lay in bed for most of the day and do absolutely nothing until you have an hour to work out before work, that's about all you can do.

How does your body personally respond to higher fat post workout? I know for me it bloats me like you wouldn't believe and screws up my digestion

High fat post workout makes me feel weird too. I maintain a high fat diet regularly, just not in my post meal.

I was actually really bloated after that meal last night, but I think it was more the pure volume of food that I ate as opposed to the fat content. I feel fine this morning too.

Lol, it's a habit from when my roommates were still here, they never ever cleaned up after themselves so the rest of my apartment was nasty and I refused to eat on the countertops in the kitchen. My bed was the cleanest place for me to eat.
The couches were also covered and dog hair and piss so I never watched tv anywhere other than in my room either.
They all went home and didn't clean a damn thing, left it all for me to do. The apartment is a LOT cleaner now that they're gone but now I have the habit of eating in my bedroom.

Ah well when crying that is pretty much a given unless they are ALWAYS crying. Then it loses it's power.

I can do higher fats within reason. Also depends on the type of fat. Heavily saturated fats don't do so well but some light oils aren't a big deal like coconut, or olive. At the same time, I don't really consider myself lean enough at the moment to notice the smaller fluctuations too much right now. I feel that really becomes a lot more evident at or below 12%. However I tend to look better the next day with some fats involved in general. Keep in mind most of my carbs are post workout only. So the fat tends to slow the entry enough I get to trickle in carbs longer. I feel for me this helps them all land in the right place. My fat cells are quite insulin sensitive so using more of the Exercise induced Glut-4 translocation post workout to get the carbs in with slightly smaller insulin spike but more steady supply of glycogen to the muscles.

Lol!
I have done everything from directly telling them to stop being lazy ****s and respect the public space and clean up after themselves, to knocking a bunch of **** over in the middle of the night and laying a bunch of trash in the middle of the floor for them to find in the morning.
I've even stacked chairs in a creepy way on the tops of tables and moved things around to different places just to make them go "wtf?"

Lol yeah nothing worked at all. I think our floors got swept maybe twice in the past year, both times having been a result of me getting fed up with living in a cesspool.
 
Today's preworkout cocktail for back and biceps:

1 scoop OG Aggro
1 scoop ProSupps Karbolic (50g carbs)

1 cap EvoMuse Slintensity
1 cap USP Anabolic Pump
3 caps Hydro3
2 tabs Diesel Test Hardcore

YEAH BUDDY

You are too funny! Then again, I get it.
 
I like my Slintensity, but can't take more than 1 in a day w/o messing up my digestion/GI. I am going to be giving RagNORok Elite (non-stim) a try, hopefully tomorrow, but that also means, at least for now, I will give up the pre-workout carb/protein shake in lieu of the RagNO(want to see how it is on its own before I add anything else to it). What are your thoughts on carbs in your pre? That Max Reps is a pretty strong PWO, from what I could tell. Can you tell the difference w/ carb or w/o (With that massive pre-workout stack)?

I liked the gains I got by adding carbs/protein to my PWO (always have them in my post shake). But they seemed short lived and have plateaued (no gains lost, just stopped gaining).

Thanks! and great workout log!

Well then it is time to add more. If you want the best recovery possible at least have them intra. If performance is very important to you then definitely pre as well. It really just depends on the goal but if you are trying to gain or get stronger then increase your calories, and the best place to do that is during the peri-workout window. However for protein type sources I would only use BCAA, EAA, or Hydrolized Whey or Casien pre and intra. You don't want anything hindering your gut clearance or worse sitting on your stomach not being digested because all of the blood is being used in your exercising muscles. That will make you feel sick as a mofo.

Oh by the way I guess how I feel about the carbs and protein pre-workout are clear from the above statement. They are very effective but you must know why you are choosing to do it, so you know how to implement it. You also need to know how your body responds to training with food on the gut. None of the benefits are worth anything if it makes you sick to train shortly after food consumption.
 
Yeah, agreed with MrKleen73, I love carbs pre, intra, and post workout. Even when I go on a diet I will probably not give up my peri-workout carb intake, just limit it everywhere else.
 
Thanks to both of you for the feedback. The thing I found interesting was that even adding 7g protein (whey isolate) and 22g carbs (mixed GI ratings) pre-workout, I did not notice any "fat" gain. And I ran that way for a couple of months (not just 1 week to "try it"). Mr. Kleen is probably right that I need to bump up those amounts. I am torn about the slintensity dose. Since I can only dose 1 per day (per my weak **s stomach) I am thinking the 2nd meal after my workout might be the better time to use it.

BTW, I do use hydrolyzed whey in my post shake. Guess I can move that to the pre to see if it helps "energize" my workouts. But for this week at least I just want to try the RagNO to see how my GI system handles it (I already know I am "sensitive" to a couple of the ingredients, but have found that when in a mix I tend to handle them better, so we will see).

Thanks again!
