Oh, hell yes!! The Thundergod has arrived! :box: So happy to have you, brother! :head:

About the diet though, I'm bulking, and I don't expect to stay this lean while taking in this many calories/carbs, but I am NOT worried about fat gains at the moment. I honestly don't mind that my abs are disappearing at all. I'm just gonna try and eat as much as possible to work on the muscle gains, then I'll cut again in the spring. I think I've got this whole cutting thing down, but bulking has always been a ***** for me, so I'm gonna eat and eat and eat and eat... My metabolism is definitely a little :fool2:. But I'm gonna give it hell! :smite:
 
Day 3: Tuesday, September 23 - Update #2

Weight: 181.6 (+.8)

Update #2

The extra walking today was definitely beneficial, but tomorrow I need to wear more comfortable shoes. Bad idea wearing pointed toe dress shoes. I did quite a bit of stretching this evening (especially hamstring stretching) and I'm feeling quite limber.

Ok, seriously... WTF gives here? Again, I know it is only day 3, but I have to stress this because it's very apparent. My appetite is getting ridiculous. Last night and this morning I was getting hungrier sooner after finishing meals, and since this afternoon I am finishing meals and not feeling content. These same meals were a struggle for me just last week. I have thrown in an extra 2 whole wheat bagels, 2 granola bars, and a cup of fruit today, and I am still hungry. I literally finished a meal 45 minutes ago, was still hungry, ate a bagel, was still hungry, ate a granola bar, and I'm hungry again. I'm more than just hungry though, I mean, I am HUNGRY. I am going to go throw another bagel in the toaster right now, and I'm gonna eat my last meal before bed in about an hour. The last time my appetite jumped like this was when I ran 1-Test/4AD this past winter. It'll be interesting to see how crazy this gets...

Again, I am not worried about my bf so I will just throw back as much food as I want and see what my body does with it. If I notice my body is putting on too much fat, I will make adjustments. If I feel that it is benefiting me, I will continue eating like a horse. :twisted:
 
I'm guessing going from bedridden to physically active again has some part to do with your appetite increase. Coincidence that it suddenly spiked with the inclusion of your new stack? :think:

Maybe the PRIME was the straw that broke the camels back, per se.
 
Shaddow, maybe you should PM Jakellpet to smuggle some ostrich eggs out of Zambia for you. One ostrich egg is apparently ~2000kcal :lol:

While I am certain that has something to do with a basic increase in hunger from just a few weeks ago, I feel I should clarify this a little. Prior to my injury I was on this very same bulking diet for about a month and a half. That's the thing though; I was bulking. I was eating these meals to get in all those calories, and a lot of times I was stuffing my face. Sometimes I would only finish meals because I was bulking. Sometimes I would only begin meals because I was bulking. I wouldn't quite say I was struggling to eat all those calories, but it definitely took effort.

These past few days I have gone from struggling to finish my meals to not feeling full after eating them. I am also getting hungrier much sooner after eating, and it's not just, 'Yeah, I could use some food,' it's more like 'Man, I am HUNGRY.'

It is very obvious to me, and even more so after breakfast this morning (I'll speak on this in today's update), that my appetite has increased dramatically specifically due to my supplement stack.
 
Day 4: Wednesday, September 24

Weight: 181.8 (+1)

I woke up this morning and the first thing on my mind was FOOD. I NEED TO EAT! :food: Wow. Hungry, hungry, hungry. Dosed my IGF-2 and went back to sleep for ~10 minutes, but I woke up feeling good and refreshed. Total sleep last night was about 7 hours, which is excellent by my standards.

I took an AP, showered, cooked breakfast, ate, and I was still hungry after eating. Had to hit the road though, so I ate a granola bar and left for work. It's now been about an hour and 40 minutes since I had breakfast, and I swear, I could eat an entire meal again right now. I stopped at CVS on my walk to work and picked up a couple boxes of granola bars (Nature Valley Oats 'N Honey) and a dozen protein bars (Pure Protein chocolate chip :D) and will be snacking on these throughout the day to help counter hunger pangs.

Definite HUGE increase in appetite which has been steadily increasing as each day progresses.

Ok, here is where I'm a retard... I should be walking more, and I mentioned in my rehab log wanting to walk on the treadmill at the gym, but not having time cuz they were closing. Well... I have a treadmill at home (that doubles as a hamper :p), so I'm gonna get on the ball with that. I think this will aid in my recovery.

Today I wore more comfortable shoes for my walk to work and I noticed an improvement from my walk yesterday. I can now take longer strides without feeling as much tension/tightness in my hamstring. So maybe the walk yesterday helped and perhaps the supplements are aiding in my recovery. My legs didn't feel quite as "jello-y" today on stairs, though the feeling is still there and noticeable.

I also noticed that my breathing seems to be easier - like I can take deeper breaths/feel more air going into my lungs which is kinda euphoric in a sense. I'm sitting at my desk breathing deeply right now, and it feels good. :D

Today is back & triceps day. I'm really looking forward to my workout tonight. I feel well-rested and alert, and I think I will have a very productive session.

More updates later.
 
Just a note for anyone following along (and I will go back and edit my opening post to include this info), I am marking every daily post/update with a Invalid Link Removed, and the day/date in bold. This is just to make it easier for those who would like to skip past any random discussion going on in my log (which I am completely cool with, and encourage, so don't stop!).

Also, my weight is posted every morning, weighed on the same digital scale, purged, butt ass nekkid. :D

Very thoughtful and clever. Damn, I could have used that strategy!

You may have set a procedural standard, very good idea :clap2: So simple, yet so effective.
 
Dammmmmmmmmmmmmiiiiiittttttttttttt!

I heated up my food in the microwave, but I was in a rush so I probably wasn't paying enough attention. I meant to put 1:50 on it. I came back several minutes later and the microwave was still going and counting down from 9:40. :eek: I must've put 15:00!

My chicken is freaking dry as hell, spinach is crumbling like dry leaves, and my tomatoes look like salsa.

And the funny thing is... I am so freaking hungry I am eating it anyways. :food:

The good news is I heated up my pasta beforehand, so at least my entire meal isn't ****.

Grrrr..... :frustrate:
 
Lookin good man! :thumbsup:. I really wanna try IGF but its so damn expensive. Looking forward to your final review on it.

oh and is this the new/old igf?

LOL. I won't really be able to review it specifically with the multitude of supplements I'm taking, but I will be sure to let you know how the entire stack treats me. ;)

I'm guessing it's the new one, cuz I ordered it about 4 weeks ago. Any idea how I can tell?

Check the ingredient profile.

Original IGF-2 (700 mg per capsule):
Safed Musli (50% extract)
Mucuna Pruriens (standardized to 25% L-Dopa)
Rhodiola Rosea (3% Rosavins)
Dodder Seed (Cuscuta Chineses)
Inactive - Gelatin, Cellulose

Recomped IGF-2 (700 mg per capsule):
Chlorophytum Borivilianum (50% extract) (i.e. Safed Musli)
Mucuna Pruriens (standardized to 75% L-Dopa)
Rhodiola Rosea (1% Rosavins)
Dodder Seed Extract (20:1 Cuscuta Chineses)
Bioperine (95-98% Piperine) Registered Trademark of Sabinsa Corp. and holds patent # 5,536,506
Inactive - Maltodextrin M150, Gelatin, Titarium Dioxide, FD&C Blue #1

The new formula is MORE potent than the original, having a STRONGER extract of L-Dopa, and adding to its ingredient profile Bioperine. Because of the increased potency of the recomped version, and addition of Bioperine, dosing requirements are different (Original IGF-2: 3 doses daily; Recomped IGF-2: 2 doses daily) and less than when using the original (and these recommended doses are considered a MAXIMUM for that weight category).

It is most likely to be the Recomped IGF-2, since the Original IGF-2 is no longer in production.

IGF-2 or IGF-1? They are two COMPLETELY DIFFERENT things!
 
Yeah, I think i might try this stack minus the Prime!!

Looks so damn GOOD!!! But i think id rather rip through some H-Doggy first.

Sorry about the chicken Bro. Careful ya dont chip a tooth.

I've always been pretty intrigued by IGF-1, but I honestly don't know enough about it to utilize it correctly, and I'd have to get over my needle phobia before I could even contemplate something like that... :o

Yeah, if I were contemplating anabolics, I'd probably do those first, then hit up the natty stack afterwards. I may be doing this backwards though, cuz I've been thinking about running some T-Roid or Havoc that I've got sitting around soon... :twisted: I've never tried any of the newer OTC anabolics. My experience lies solely in the older PH/S's of yesterday. :stick:

My thinking was that it could be beneficial down the line some day if someone does a search and they have 10 other threads to read as well. This would make it easier for them to cut to the chase and extract the important parts of this log. :)
 
Nice log so far shadow. I will be keeping one myself. I plan on running sustain alpha, anabolic edge, divanex, prime, then max out when it finnaly comes out. SO my log will be very similar to yours.

Hey poor starving shaddow! Remember those Thunder-licious Bars I made and posted in Volcom's thread? I recommend those highly. They're easy as Hel to make as well. Well, last night I made some Peanut Butter Protein Balls like snagency was describing to me. I used 6 tablespoons of peanut butter, 2 tablespoons of dark honey, 6 scoops of vanilla whey protein, and 3 cups of coarse oatmeal. Mix everything but the oatmeal up first. Then work in the oats. Make into balls, place on a tray, and refrigerate. I'll give you a tip on how to make them let go of your fingers as you're rolling them into balls. Use some powdered sugar on your hands. It'll help to make the balls release from your fingers and it helps with their taste as well!! I think I'm going to go pop a few right now. They got 15 grams of protein in each ball. Bon Appetit!! :food:
 
Day 4: Wednesday, September 24 -Update #2

Weight: 181.8 (+1)

Ok, a couple of things before I get to tonight's workout. First, I noticed this afternoon that my face is a little bit oilier than usual, and I have a couple of small zits on my forehead and a deeper 'beneath the skin' one above my upper lip. Nothing too serious, but I generally break out a little when my hormones fluctuate, so I was expecting this. I just didn't think it would happen so quickly. Cool, I guess that means it's working. (Although with my appetite as high as it is, I could kinda tell already.)

Second thing, around 2pm I started scratching my scalp, and I noticed I was still scratching it occasionally just before leaving the office at 5:30. I guess that means it's working too...

Appetite is still ridiculous. I almost feel like I am cutting cuz I'm freaking hungry all the time, but today was a 6k+ calorie day, so I am definitely nowhere near cutting. :food: :food: :food:


Ok, onto the fun stuff! :head:


Foreword on my workout: I thought back to last week's back workout, and I was probably lifting a little heavier than I should've been. My hamstring got tight a few times on dumbbell rows and cable rows, and my form was a little sub-par on some movements, so I figured it best to be sure to do slow, controlled movements for every exercise this time around, even if it meant dropping the weight a little.

Next week I will attempt to increase weight on all exercises.



Workout # 2 on stack - back & triceps!!

Bodyweight pull-ups
12
10
6 - (Plus two more 4/5 reps. LOL. Didn't quite get all the way up.)

This is just about where I was before my injury, so this is a good sign. A couple more full reps on that last set and I should be back up to par on pull-ups (for my weight). I've done as many as 18 in the past, but this was on my near-keto cut when I was ~10lbs. lighter, so that surely had something to do with it.

One arm dumbbell rows
75 x 12
85 x 10
95 x 8

I dropped 5#'s this week and did these a lot more slowly and controlled than last week. Felt good. I'll go up on these next week. No hamstring stiffness/tightness whatsoever.

T-bar rows
90 x 12
115 x 10
135 x 7

Cable rows
160 x 12
175 x 10
190 x 8

I'll go up on these as well. :head:

Time to hit up the triceps!

Skullcrushers!
40 x 20
60 x 15
70 x 12
80 x 10
90 x 4

It's been a while since I've done skullcrushers. These have traditionally been pretty tough on my elbows, so I wanted to be sure there wasn't pain and eased into them slowly. I don't usually do so many sets/reps.

Rope triceps extensions
150 x 15
150 x 12
150 x 11 DROP TO:
100 x 10

Stacked it @ 150. Good stuff. That last dropset was killer.

Rope tricep pushdowns
100 x 12
120 x 6
140 x 4

Time to get that hammy stronger!!

Seated single leg curl
30 x 30
35 x 20
40 x 15
30 x 20
30 x 20

These were great. My hamstring was absolutely toast afterwards, so I decided to hit the treadmill for a bit to walk it off.

10:00 minute walk on the treadmill @ 3.8mph

Ok, overall, my weights/reps on most exercises were pretty close to last week's back/triceps day, with some exercises increasing and some decreasing, but movements were much more controlled this time around. I felt a lot better about my workout this week than last week, and I will definitely try to move up in weight on a lot of these exercises for next week's session. :head:

I start monday. I just took 3 weeks off to let my body and CNS fully recover. Now it's time to hit the gym hard and gain some lean muscle. I'll be watching your log closely as mine will be similar so i can judge on what to expect in the coming weeks.

TG - you could also use a little wheat flour with a few packets of splenda / equal to roll em around in to keep the sugar to a minimum... But I know warriors like you don't worry about silly stuff like that.

I made some rediculous bars last week... Eggs, Calorie coundown choc milk, rolled oats, choc mint protein whey, splenda, peanut butter (chunky natty), and natty almond butter... Turned out incredible - even my girlfriend likes them!!! :woohoo:

Day 5: Thursday, September 25

Weight: 182.8 (+2)

Today is an off day from the gym, and that's a good thing. Heavy DOMS from my back workout yesterday, and I didn't mention this, but DOMS was still very prevalent in my chest and biceps yesterday. Today it's not bad at all. My left elbow has a little discomfort. Definitely a good day to relax. Invalid Link Removed

Walking around this morning my hamstring felt like it took quite a beating last night, and it was a bit of work walking to my office. It's pretty damn sore, but I'm pretty sure it's DOMS from working it heavier and harder, so I'll keep an eye on it. Definitely gonna do some stretching and a bit of walking on the treadmill at home tonight.

Skin is still slightly more oily than usual, but not terrible. Acne hasn't gotten any worse. Scalp still itches a little but I'm trying to ignore it and not scratch it. Appetite is still ridiculous. I also feel a lot warmer today and I'm randomly sweating a bit, but this could be attributed to any of a number of things, so I won't say it's the stack. Yesterday I was told I "stink really bad" after my workout :p, so body odor may be up a little.

Think that's about it. Tomorrow is shoulder day. Looking forward to another good workout.

I left my omelete on for 30 mins the other week. Had to go run and pick something up, I figured I'd leave it on the stove and keep warm but I swear the burner was off. Yea it was a black-bottom omelet, but luckily I just peeled it off.

I'm off to find those protein bars in Volcom's log. Keep it up shadow! :woohoo:

Here's some yummy chicken parmesan I made. Figured I'd make 2 breasts , have one now one later, ended up eating them both it's so damn tasty :food:

That looks tasty AND clean AND a moderate portion! I love that combination, but that third element is a rarity for me.

No, I pretty much keep that sort of thing to weekends only. Otherwise, next thing you know, they're asking you to stop by all the time, or calling you cuz they're "in the area"... :nono:

Gotta draw the line somewhere. shaddow needs his space. I've missed many a workout sessions because of needy women and my inability to say 'No,' to the 'nanny. :hammer:
