Good log so far and the product has a good formula. Are you going to show a before and after cycle pic?
sorry, can't do pics...it's kind of a shame, todays pump was ridiculous.

DAY 22

WOW-really impressed with the pump I got this morning. it was raining so no work, no running..did a bunch of sets of military presses, shrugs, deadlifts and tricep extensions, along with the regular curls.
before this cycle I was mostly focusing on cardio[lots of running], and body had gotten pretty thin-175 at 6'1 which is really light for me. since this cycle began my goal was to build back up upper body, and decent progress has been made towards this goal.

still doing 5 pumps everyday of icon one, and using fullblitz/vasoblitz along with a caffeine tab for pre-workout.

DAY 23

woke up this morning feeling really pumped, looked in mirror and was very happy to see what almost looked liked overnight gainz….but i was really sore, worst case of morning stiffness I've had in a long time....went for a nice slow run and came home and took a hot shower and applied icon one. felt much better after the hot shower.

vascularity is pretty awesome..

going to weigh in tomorrow, if I haven't gained a few I will be really surprised.

DAY 25

can't believe all the rain we have been getting...today was supposed to just be a 3 mile run before leaving for work...work got rained out ans wasn't exactly thrilled at the prospect of running in the rain, so...I did 20 minutes on treadmill and then alternates sets of situps, leg raises, pushups in rotation till I was exhausted--anyone tells you that need to go to gym to get a good workout in send em over to my place, lol.

ok, did some ordering, have some apex- epichaos coming and going to start right away..also ordered a bottle of alpha gainz- alpha stano which I am going to save to run with ALPHA SEVEN once my ICON ONE is finished.

the epichaos is kind of an experiment, I want to see how it treats me on cycle-if it pans out the way I hope, I will get some extra gainz without adding in extra toxicity-best of both worlds!!!

A possible indication of a lack of commitment? So, steaks first, bro-science second.

Now leaving slightly disgruntled ....
sorry you are leaving disgruntled---a bite of steak for sure would have cured that...mmm one of my better grilled steaks!!!

DAY 28

weights I have been using are feeling lighter, been increasing reps. vascularity is better than I can remember. upper body is getting bigger judging by my shirts fitting tighter.

so far no real sides, I had a couple of days I thought lethargy might be setting in but passed quickly and energy level is good once again...libido is still rocking.

looks like epichaos will be arriving on fri, will start it when I get it.

DAY 31
had a great workout this morning, pump was VERY good. then went to work and ended up with more than usual heavy lifting and it was kinda hot, for-sure burnt up some cals-more than I took in for sure. my wife is making homemade shrimp scampi and i told her to make extra!!!

the epichaos came today, and after i showered i applied to chest, arms and shoulders since theseare areas i am wanting to grow. i dig the spray bottle and i've heard some complain about the scent-i'm not one of those, i like it and it doesn't really linger for long.


energy remains very good, and libido is very strong after being in sun all day-sunshine makes me horny, lol.

Glad pump was good during workout!

for the record--many years ago when my son was still at home he posted the collage you see in my avi for a get diesel log I was running back in around2010....I challenge anyone to find a pic I have posted or even a link, and all my posts are made from my laptop. I don't do bullshit.

I remember when I 1st applied to rep for iconic formulations/iron legion telling @delsolrob that I can't do pics or links.

I am not sure if it helps or not, but years ago a drew a picture of a spider on my friend's birthday card. It was a pretty good drawing. I was, maybe, 7 or 8.
no, it doesn't help...that guy is a liar, I've been a member here for 13 years and I bet you won't find a single pic that I have posted!!!

Have you ever drawn a spider?

I've been a member here for a long time, and I've never posted a pic either.

Or a drawing.
I just hate liars, that guy came into my thread just to start trouble and then lied about me posting pics!!!

I hope @Admin bans him he has already been warned!!!!

he is nothing but a troublemaker liar!!!

I think we all hate liars.

Brother, I was married to one, and for a very long time (how does 27 years of dealing with a liar sound?). And how about this -- she looked directly in my eyes and "swore to God on the life of our children" that she was not having another affair.

Except that -- she was. Obviously, I've never let my sons know that she made those statements (they were about her lack of character, not their lack or worth), nor would I let them know under any conditions. Oh, and she was the Director of Contemporary Music Ministries at the time. Oh, and her affair partner was the Choir Director.

So, do I have issues with liars? Yes, I do. Am I cautious? Sure, you bet within reason.

How about jaded? Nope. Life is too short for me to choose to drag around all of her past lies - because that would only to ruin my todays and tomorrows. Learn from it - yes. be bitter about it - no.

Now then, some will point to the hypocrisy of my (thankfully) ex-wife and her (thankfully) now husband. And some may even extend that hypocrisy argument to "Christians". But, not so fast. Although she called herself a believer - she was "all chrome and no horsepower" (or, as you might say in Texas "Big Hat, No Cattle") - and, yes, there are Christian hypocrites. But there are hypocrites in all walks of life, and that includes Christians (sadly). I just did not want my little rant to be turned into an anti-Christian rag session.

The truth be told, it was my Faith life that got me through all of this, and allowed me to do the right thing regardless of what she did, and endure 8 years (between affair #1 and affair #2) for the sole purpose of raising my kids. I could not have survived otherwise. More truth - my Faith life actually became stronger as a result of all of this.

Years later, when I met the woman who is now my wife, I chose to take a leap of faith - knowing that (1) trusting someone at face value didn't kill me the first time, but - more importantly - (2) if I could not trust her at face value from the outset - and if I feared that the new woman would be guilty of the same crap my ex-wife did - that I would poison this new relationship (and every one after that). So, I just refused "to go there". It took some directed effort and "intentionality" (if there is such a sword).

When all is said and done -- I hope my sons learned something more about me (and what it means to be a man) than that their old man can draw a pretty dang good spider on short notice.

I have no idea why I wrote all of this, but, well, I did.

really liking the epichaos, even though it might be what brought on the back pump-had a serious pump this morning. upperbody is really growing!!!
