Didn't get a full workout in today but hit it pretty hard. One of the guys I will be working with was at the gym so we got to talking and I ran out of time. But I got some inside info on what to expect so it was worth it.
Chest, tris and shoulders
Flat BB Bench-10 sets of 3
245 x 3
255 x 3
265 x 3
275 x 3
285 x 3
295 x 3
305 x 3 my arm started aching a little here and didn't want to push it so I dropped back down
275 x 4 for 3 sets
Weighted Dips- tricep
BW +25lbs 6 x 10
Reverse Pec Dec- rear delts
90 x 15
100 x 12
110 x 10
120 x 8
Missed the rack presses today, but still felt good when I left. Had a pretty good pump in my chest and tris both!
Start working 10 hour days tomorrow so I packed a few meals and a protein bar. Not sure how my breaks and lunch is going to play out so we will see. I will probably take tomorrow off from the gym, just because it is my first day and not sure how it will go.

Sorry about the lack of updates, I've worked almost 22 hours in the last 2 days. I didn't train Friday after work but did last night. I run my ass off at work so I wasn't sure how well I would do last night, it was leg day of all days!!
Here is how it went...
Squats- 5 x 5
325 x 5
345 x 5
365 x 5
385 x 5
395 x 5
I could of easily hit 405 x 5 I just couldn't seem to get in the groove. I was unsteady from the time I unracked the weights until I finished my sets, crazy!
Leg extensions-
130 x 15
140 x 12
170 x 10
190 x 8
Drop 150 x 4
Drop 110 x 6
Standing leg curls- went up 10lbs, 3 sets 8
50 x 8 x 3
Lying leg curls-
110 x 15
130 x 12
140 x 10
150 x 8
Seated calf raises-
Not sure on the reps, we just went up to 3 plates and then did drops, but my calfs are already sore this morning!
Although I was wore out from work the weights felt good tonight and almost a little to easy. Headed to church in a few and will hit the gym this afternoon for a good back and bi workout.
Also even though I don't post much, sorry to the guys/gals logs I have been following, I will try to get caught up this afternoon.

That's crazy, at least I can see I am not the only one that dealt with it. I guess we all have those off days.
Just got out of the gym tonight. We went to the local Y to lift tonight. I can see why I had gotten a membership to a different gym now. Not knocking the Y, but their gym equiptment sucks!
Anyway hit back and bis tonight. Switched up and did rack pulls again. Went a little heavier today, trying to work myself back into heavy weights. I still didn't go to failure, but hitting 405 for a few sets felt good.
Rack Pulls- bars set right at the middle of knee caps
275 x 5
315 x 5
365 x 5
405 x 5 x2
Seated chest supported rows- Machine, I guess that is what they are called?
170 x 10
190 x 10
210 x 10
220 x 10
Shrugs- 8 x 15
85's 2 x 15
90's 2 x 15
95's 2 x 15
105's 2 sets 15, 20
Just couldn't seem to go heavy enough on the shrugs tonight. May switch it up and do BB shrugs later this week
Cambered bar curl-
75lbs 5 sets 12
Reverse grip straight bar cable curl-
90 2 x 14
Sweet pump tonight!! My upper back was very tight along with my bis. Had one of those pumps were I couldn't scratch the side of face hardly because my bis were so tight
Well it looks like I may have lost my lifting partner already. I explained to him the other day I may have to start lifting around 8:30 at night on most evenings. With my new job it looks like I won't be home until between 6:15 and 7 most nights. Well my kids start getting ready for bed at 8:30. So if I leave work and go to the gym there will be a lot of nights I may only see them for 30mins to maybe an hour. The other way I can come home, eat dinner with them, and when they start getting ready for bed or shortly after I can leave to hit the gym. Well at the time he was ok with it, but said he needed to talk with his wife. Tonight I reminded him about training tomorrow night, and his wife ( she was lifting to) spoke up and said 'Our bedtime is 9'... so back to lifting alone again. Really I don't mind, except when I need a spot. I can get in, put my headphones on, and get it done!!
I guess we will see what happens tomorrow night........

Always tough getting a workout partner that you can have the same schedule with. But I love training alone now after doing it for so long.
But you take the good with the bad. Got a job Good, lose a training partner Bad. I'll take the job!
Keep up the great work!!

Well it looks like it is going to be hit or miss with the workout partner. He texted me today at work and asked if we could take the day off and lift tomorrow. I told him I would go ahead and lift today, and we would just hit something different tomorrow evening. Come to find out his wife has to work out of town the next three days, which is why he wanted to wait. Needless to say I went tonight anyway. I justed started a new job, and have a family at home. I have got to get my self on a schedule and not be skipping days, or only going when it is convenient for him.
On with the workout. My shoulder had been bothering me whenever I go above 300 so instead of a 10 x 3 on my bench I went with 5x5 with lower weights. No spotter but I still felt pretty good.
Flat BB bench- 1 min rest
275 5 x 5
Low cable crossovers-
50 2 x 15
Tricep Dips-
BW + 45lbs 4 x 8
Incline DB rear delts- lying face down on a low incline
20's 2 x 20
25's 2 x 25
Cage Press-
75 x 20
95 x 15
115 x 10
95 x 15
I had to quit there, my shoulders were on fire!! Even though I had a t-shirt on you could still see all three delts Sweet!!!!
Not sure on my weight as i haven't weighed in a few days. I did want to mention I started SD at 20mg/day Sunday. I will run it from 3 to 5 weeks depending on the sides. I haven't ever ran it so we will see I have been holding around 206-208lbs.

Long day at work again today, but I made it in to hit legs tonight. Glad I did, turned out to be a killer workout!
Squats- 5 x 5
335 x 5
355 x 5
375 x 5
395 x 5
405 x 5
Leg extensions-
130 x 15
150 x 12

Standing leg curls-
50 4 x 10
Lying leg curls-
110 x 15
130 x 12
150 x 10
160 x 8 x 2
Finally got back to 405 x 5 with good form and not failing. I knew I could because I maxed at 505lbs a month ago. With my new job and being on my feet a good part of the day, I just haven't felt comfortable under a lot of weight. Not that it is to heavy, more that my legs are already somewhat fatigued when I get there.
Going to weigh myself in the morning and see where I am at. I am going to try to start getting a 5th meal in every day, if not at least an oats/protein shake for the extra cals.

Yes, anything has got to help. I have noticed my hunger increasing too, so it makes it easier to eat more when I need to.
Man you will get there, just keep pushing it. I seem to really be able to push my squats when I am doing a strength program, but it does drop back some when I start doing more hypertrophy work.

So this week will only be my 5th week on this routine but think this will be my last week. Hitting everything heavy twice a week is starting to effect my joints. My knees have been aching and have been having problems with my shoulder. Not sure what routine I will go to next week but I would like a 2 on, 1 off, 2 on, 1 off routine to follow. And geared more toward hypertrophy than strength. I'm limited on the number of weeks I have left to build and need to take full advantage of them, plus the SD should help some

Went ahead and hit the gym tonight. Probably needed a day off, but I was off of work today and couldn't resist
Pulled deads from the floor tonight. Just like Rackpulls it has been a long time, only because my previous routines didn't really call for them. So I didn't go to heavy but really focused on form.
Deads-
225 x 5 x2
275 x 5 x3
Seated V-grip cable rows-
240 3 x 8
160 x 25 BURN !!!
Barbell Curls-
70 4 x 14
Cambered bar machine curls- Single Arm
40 2 x 15
Holy pump !!! I start doing more of a Hyper routine and I am going to be swolen up everyday in the gym haha. I think the SD is starting to kick in
Speaking of, we are going to start the John Meadows Reactive Pump Program Monday. Just by looking over it, it is completely different than what I have been doing, so it should spark some new growth.
Also weighed myself this morning and am up to 210. Hopefully I keep putting some size on. I'll post updated pics in a few weeks..

On a different note I may drop the SD. I have been noticing as the day goes on I think my blood pressure goes up. My face and ears get red with slight anxiety. I haven't checked my BP, but I can tell something isn't right...
For now I will drop the dosage to 10mg, just preworkout and I started taking Hawthorne berry to see if it helps. If so I will up the dosage again.

Stop in at the drugstore and check it. But sit for a few minutes before doing the test as it will be elevated just from walking around.
Edit: Also I did not find Hawthorne did much for me when I was on.. I was told to take an aspirin before bed each night.. within 3 days blood pressure was normal.

Bumping test e up to 750/week this week.
Reactive Pump is deffinately intense !! Leg day was for sure. Here is how it went...
Leg Curls- 4 sets of 8, with 25 partials after last set
130 x 8
150 x 8
170 x 8
180 x 8 then finish with 25 partials.
Already lit up my hammies!!
Squats- Explosive reps, 6 sets of 6, supposed to be with chains, but don't have any. I am thinking about picking up some soon though.
225 6 x 6
I paused at the bottom to take any rebound out of it, and then powered up.I should of went a little heavier, because the bar was actually liftin a little at the top of my rep from powering up so quick.
Leg Press with escalating set - 16 reps, adding a 25lb plate on each side after each 4 reps
So it went , 6 plates total, 4 reps then lock out knees and add 2 25's, then 4 more reps then add 2 25's. We did this 3 times, then finished off the last 4 of the 16 reps with 3 25's on each side.
The weight wasn't too bad, but the hold between sets to add weight sucked!! haha
Leg extensions- Reps 10,15 with 2 sec holds in full contraction for each rep. Then 20 reps with no holds, then stand for 5 sec then do 15 partials
130 10,15,20, then 15 partials
Between the holds and partials I could literally feel the burn clear down the side of my legs!! It was crazy intense!
DB stiff leg deadlift- 2 sets 15
75's 2 x 15
Calf raises in leg press- 2 sets 30 with a 10 sec hold after each 10 reps, after each 30 rep set you stand up and dorsiflex your ankle to failure
6 plates- 10 reps/hold for 10 sec, then 10 reps/hold for 10 sec, then 10 reps/hold for 10 sec
repeat but with only 4 plates.
I have been doing more of a strength routine, and after tonight I am sure I won't be able to walk tomorrow!! Crazy pump and burn tonight!!!

I mixed a scoop of BCAA/SAA with a scoop of Fruit Punch Karbolyn and drank it during my workout tonight. Talk about a strong taste/flavor!! I just about need a gallon jug to mix it in haha.
Tonight workout was Chest and shoulders
Slight Incline DB press- 4 sets of 8/ 1 sec contraction at top, with 2 25lb plates under the front of the bench to give it an incline.
80's x 8
85's x 8
90's x 8
95's x 8
Explosive Bench- 5 sets 5, Stop bar on chest for 1 sec then explode up
245 5 x 5
Went a little heavy on this. The weight wasn't bad, it just didn't feel like I was moving the bar as fast as i should have been.
Slight incline BB press- 3 sets 6, no lock out and do not touch chest, Constant tension
185 3 x 6
These were just the opposite, I should of went a little heavier although I did get a good pump.
Ladder Push-ups- These were done with no rest between settings.
Low setting x 25
Medium setting x 15

2ND SET

I literally failed on the last set and couldn't push myself back up away from the bar!!!
Seated Side Laterals- 3 sets 12
25's 3 x 12
Destroyer sets- 60, 30, 15
55's x 50 +10

20's x 15
I had to quit at 50 reps on the first set and pause for 10 secs before finishing them.
I was supposed to do Cage press tonight too but there is no way I could of. I am almost going to have to stop doing chest and shoulders on the same day, the pump is so painful in my shoulders I can't hardly finish my workouts!! They were bad enough tonight, after I got home they still were burning!! (15mins later)
Tonight workout was Chest and shoulders
Slight Incline DB press- 4 sets of 8/ 1 sec contraction at top, with 2 25lb plates under the front of the bench to give it an incline.

95's x 8
Explosive Bench- 5 sets 5, Stop bar on chest for 1 sec then explode up

Went a little heavy on this. The weight wasn't bad, it just didn't feel like I was moving the bar as fast as i should have been.
Slight incline BB press- 3 sets 6, no lock out and do not touch chest, Constant tension

Meadows always pairs Chest and Shoulders together and typically twice a week (heavy day + a pump day). It is intense but works really well.

Thanks man!!
Thanks, my tris are paying for it too !! They have been more sore than my chest! haha
My shoulders have always grown quicker than anything, so I may ease back on them some and hit my chest a little harder. I'll see how it goes tomorrow night.
