Bam Bam Goes Caveman-Mode: A Training Log

Tren gave me horrible acne on my back and arms. I'm still trying to get it to go away. I've got tons of red marks and some blue/black ones from Minocycline, which I used to try and get rid of the acne.

I'm trying the acne.org regimen with the wash, benzoyl peroxide, and AHA+ to try and clear it up completely. Doctor prescribed me accutane but it is expensive and sketchy lol. Some people get ED for the rest of their lives for it and they don't know why or how to fix it.

I know why. Accutane can interfere with the 5-alpha-reductase enzyme I believe. These individuals should get their test/DHT levels tested.

I swear by low dosed accutane though while starting cycles and if any acne ever flares up. It only ever flares up for me if I miss a dose or my blood hormone levels become unstable (by either missing a dose or pinning on the wrong day).

So you believe the ED from accutane is easily fixable by TRT or other hormonal tweaks?

May be worth it in that case.. Clear skin and TRT sounds like a win-win. Lol

I'll have to read up on that to understand it.

Yes I believe so. It's been a while since I've researched this though.

Hmm... Don't know about THAT. I feel more lightheaded/dizzy than anything. Doesn't take much anymore since I barely drink anymore. It's like I'm not even in a frat ;)

Looking big homie

Thanks man! Believe it or not I've actually lost like 7 pounds in the last week. Diet was off because of the Arnold and this week has been incredibly stressful with school so I haven't been eating or sleeping much. No loss in strength or size I think so whatever.

Thanks man! I have to remind myself not to go by the scale. When everyone tells me I'm looking huge when they see me, that has to account for something!

Quick shower and meal then off to train my first client, followed by 5 hours behind the front desk twiddling my thumbs and dreaming of food
 
Quest bars give me the gnarliest jaw pumps...
 
clown007 said:
I agree. They are like year old toffee lol.

I like B-Up bars, they are decent.
Click to expand...

If I ate protein bars more often, I'd be a little more irritated by it. But, I typically never have more than like 2 bars in any given week. I'm just a huge sucker for those Pumpkin Pie bars...
 
I think it was Quest bars that a quote worker would slice up and then bake them to turn them into hard little cookie crisps. Those were pretty decent!
 
One cool thing about having roommates that party their faces off is you can still get your tren injection in when they wake you up at 3am when they come stumbling home from the bars with a large group of people!

Well, good thing you look for the positives BamBam. I'd be reaching for something heavy to swing if my sleep got ruined.

I've passed the point of getting mad about it. It happens at least 3 nights a week and there's nothing I can do about it. We're in college, it's what college kids do.

I keep f*cking losing weight. 216 today. Whatever, I don't look smaller. Maybe the winny is dropping water weight faster than I anticipated.
Today's workout:
Leg extensions:
65x10, 125x20, 155x15, 200x12, 230x10
Superset with:
Bodyweight squats: 4x15

Leg press:
495x20, 785x15, 985x12, 1165x10 dropset 495x30

Standing calf press
120x20, 135x15, 150x12, 165x10

Hack squat machine
3x225x15

Lying leg curls
3x110x15

So I filled up the rack on the leg press, literally couldn't add any more weight... Gonna have to start getting creative on where to put extra weight if I ever want to go heavier than I did today. Felt so damned good though.
I took my client through leg day today too, and had him literally bent over a trash can ready to puke... Lol. Hey, he told me he wanted me to push him hard. I delivered.
 
I have the solution for the leg press (I ran into this issue too..once you hit 30+ plates its just a hassle to load up.)

Do:
1. Timed sets INSTEAD of counting reps
2. Add in specific tempo work (4:0:1:0 or 2:2:2:2 for example)
3. Add bands

Those have helped me keep the plate number under control haha

4. Swap your hack squat & leg press around. Get some volume into the hack so you're going to have to limit yourself a bit on leg press.
5. Paused squats (along the lines of BF's point 2) before leg press so you're a little fatigued before you hit it.

BTW - that volume & weight on leg press is insane!

Sweet, yeah it was hard to unload half the plates to do my dropset. 5 plates per side felt like a feather after the 1165 lol
I'll have to look into those tempo methods, I've never really understood them.

Thank you both for the suggestions! And thanks man :) haha the weight just kept moving so I just kept adding more!

Its super simple to understand.

4:0:1:0
=
eccentric:paused at the fully lengthened position:concentric:paused at the fully shortened position

The number refers to the time under tension each portion of the lift will be under
 
Rodja said:
Could just do them unilaterally.

This is true! Could also do that directly before doing both legs at the same time so you're already fatigued.

Ahhh okay. I was overcomplicating it in my mind.
 
Dma378 said:
Been trying to incorporate more tempo oriented stuff as well.
Click to expand...

At the end of the day its nothing novel but it make you conscious of how poor (typically) your tempo really is and your missing out on SO much stimulation. Tempo specific work (if you've never done) will give you tension like you've never felt. LOVE IT!
 
For the last while I have really been using the idea of tempo to create tension in the muscles. It's a great way to hit a 40-80 second contraction depending on goals or feel... Counting the tempo ensures you are working the muscle for the desired amount of time. Counting reps can be deceiving in that respect. 8 reps can be 8-10 secs or 40-60secs depending on tempo.
