Incoming pm just in caseHey Flex if you find yourself needing a change from the 5x5 anytime let me know and I'll send a pdf file of 5/3/1 over your way.
I just found this helpful link.

It is supposed to be for Intermittent Fasting but I am using the calculator to figure my daily needs for on and off days.
The results for the calculations seem a tad low so I am going to just increase them by a little bit.
It says on workout days I should be getting around 4100 calories in, with close to 400 grams of carbs.
I am thinking more like 4500, with 350 grams of carbs and 250 protein.
The off day calories seem to be more accurate, the low side of 3500 cals for off days.
Apologies...it's Invalid Link RemovedNice find! I used this but I couldnt figure out the link lol. Bookmarked now.
Id give you reps, but I gotta spread um around
I was thinking the same 5x5 on cycle and then 5/3/1 off.
any word on the second bottle for the extended runs, Taurus???? Was pretty interested in seeing this...
3 a week man that doesn't sound fun lol. What's your caloric intake look like? Are you the type to put it on fairly fast?
I could eat 6k cals for a week off cycle and probably only put on a pound or two!

Don't worry I got youNice!
Good stuff!!
Good job Taurus!
Well I am on a day schedule now for a couple weeks so time to really put this stuff to the test. My lifts are so much better on a day schedule. No f'd up workout schedules on my off days, I get up and go to bed at the same time every day. First dose down the hatch @ 6am.......workout coming at 6:30pm, double dose around 5pm.

Oh yes, it sounds like you are going to kill it!

Workout time! Listening to the new Five Finger Death Punch cd on the way to the gym...
Military press, squats, BB rows? Sounds good. Probably add some light chest work in, punish tri's a little, and throw in some shrug burnout sets if I have time.
Lets go!

Hell, all mine are lagging! Lol
That's right, only way to do it! I treat the gym like an all you can eat buffet. Go in there planning to get my good macros first (meats, potatoes, the healthier stuff) and then when I get my fill, I over indulge with a little bit of this, little bit of that, maybe even a small dessert lol.FL3X you sound like me...go in with a plan...then feeling good....do some of this...still feel good...throw in some of that..LOL!!!
If only there were no such thing, I would spend a whole day in there and just knock it all out!I'm the same way. Sometimes I can venture into overtraining cuz I just don't want to leave the gym.
Hell, all mine are lagging! Lol
I think I may have...update coming as soon as I get back from getting my Japanese take out (you jelly bro?)You catch my drift![]()
My 5x5 is done, then I do like 4 more exercises... hahaha! Over training on Mdrol? I wonder ...
FL3X!! I hope you get some PRs today!
FL3X MAGNUM said:Preworkout dose taken with lots of good fats, around 4:30pm.
Another dose (4th) taken at 5:30pm. This is how I am "double dosing" my preworkout.
Feels so good to be back on days!
Military press:
105x10
135x5
150x5
185x5
205x5 (pr?)
Bent over BB rows:
135x5
165x5
185x5
205x5
225x7 (PR)
Squats:
135x5
165x5
195x5
225x5
245x5 (could have got one more with bad form)
I wouldn't really call my squat a PR because I haven't gone heavy in so long, I'm just cautiously building weight back up to make sure I don't blow out my knee.
Still feelin good...
Close grip tri press on smith (strip sets, no rest):
185x9
175x8
155x6
Wrist hurting too much, had to stop
Shoulder height cable cross for chest, supersetted with reverse grip pressdowns (strip sets):
50'sx21----60x6, 50x7, 40x7
50'sx18----50x8, 40x8, 30x10
All done.
Got an excellent pump tonight, chest felt really full, and my biceps even felt pretty full and tight just from the constant tension on cable cross.
Who thinks these PR's and pumps are a good sign???
P.S. Pure Protein chocolate flavor mixed with 8 oz water tastes like licking stainless steel and chasing it with a wad of notebook paper lol.
Just scarfed down 1000 calories of pure bliss: Shrimp, steak, mixed veggies, fried rice from the local Asian takeout place. They do Korean, Chinese, and Japanese on the menu, but this is the only thing I ever order lol. Almost got a California roll too but decided against it.
As soon as I get that second bottle of P-Bold in I am bumping the dose up to 6 a day. I'll have to look back through my ideas in page 1 or 2 and see how I'm going to dose it. Thinking of this:
First thing AM (6am): 20mg
11am: 20mg
4pm: 20mg
5pm: 20mg
7:30pm: 20mg
9:30pm: 20mg
Either that or I will go with 40mg in the morning.
Anyone else have a better idea?
Thanks bro, need to get my back wide as possible! Mattrag's lifts sparked a little bit of jealousy so I had to nail em today lol.225 on the rows is some heavy weightnice work out man.
