Thanks to Better Body Sports and Fit & Firm, I’ve been selected to run Complete PCT as a standalone. I’ve run a few EPI cycles in the past but the last one took place last fall, so I'm not coming off a cycle.
Who am I?
I'm a 44yr old Male. 5'11, 239lbs. I've been lifting on/off since I was 15, taking it pretty serious the last 3 years. My bodyfat is in the 16-17% range I would guess and I think I'm in pretty good shape for my age.
I'm currently trying to lose some fat, maintain/add some muscle (aren't we all) and I'm toying with Intermittent Fasting to achieve my goal. I eat from noon-8pm and fast the other 16 hours. I'd like to get around 225 by the end of October and if my calculations are correct, my daily calorie intake should drop to 2600 from around 3300. I eat a lot of protein, try to keep away from simple carbs (not including fruit) and I drink a lot of water.
I work out every other day if possible. My lifting days are split between chest/shoulders/triceps/abs+HIIT on a stationary bike one day, then doing back/legs/biceps two days later. I also play some hockey and like to get some bike riding (hills) in outside.
LOGGING
I'll be taking note of the following:
-Mood/sense of well being (alpha male, cranky, feeling great?)
-Joints
-libido
-strength*
-sleep
-hunger
-blood pressure
-weight
-anything unusual
*starting strength is 10x105lbs incline db press
CURRENT SUPPLEMENTS:
Purple Wrath or Xtend during workouts. I won't be taking anything else, I'll keep this pretty simple.
INJURIES/ISSUES
I have a bum left rotator cuff, so overhead presses are out. I can bench press, but I've found that doing DB presses on an incline bench (30 degrees) is less painful to do. I'm also fighting achilles heel tendonitis in my right foot, so there won't be any running whatsoever!
UPDATES:
I'll update this 4-5 times per week. I'll try to keep it short & sweet and stick to the details, so I don't bore anyone. :147:
