It looks like it will be fun. I know Jeff, (OnlyChevy6) did it last year and had enough fun he signed up again this year, and got me to sign up too. Last year I had a problem with my knee and couldn't do it.

 

[Onlychevy6]

Yeah it will be interesting neither of us trained specifically for this. And as for me I am barely getting back into the gym. Had to take some time off to fix the noggin. All is better and it is full bore. I see some walking in the near future at the Warrior Dash. Besides that It will be fun over all.

My buddy did a warrior dash a while back, and he told me it was awful - he took 4 scoops of White Flood right before. My jaw hit the floor; 2 scoops of that stuff was always over my comfort threshold (1.5 was just right) and he usually was a 2-2.5scoop guy. But this was an endurance event, so if anything I'd lower the dose considerably. It's a wonder he didn't have a heart attack (or crap his pants where he stood, now that I recall the mandatory throne visits before lifting).

 

[Montego1]

Had a guy come in the shop about a week ago. Said he was having massive cramps while doing BJJ and wanted to know what he could take. So I asked him what he was currently taking if anything at all and he said..... "One scoop of Hemavol, Assault and Jack3d before training....".Yeaaaaaah there's ur problem right there buddy. Lol.

Slacking Kleen!

 

[MrKleen73]

Alright everyone, had a decent weekend. I don't get on the boards to much over the weekends. However I did not stop anything. I had been running pretty close to 2000 cals for a while and bumped it up a tiny bit this past weekend. Even though not carb depleted I hit up some carbs this weekend to increase leptin and keep things from slowing down too much. Basically I ate super clean all day then had a gelatto for dessert on Saturday and Sunday. THis took me close to 300 grams of carbs for each of these 2 days. Now that I have increased them a little I will drop them back down to keep the fat coming off. I definitely look bigger than I did when I started this and am 2 lbs lighter right now, down from 215 to 213. I am going to go do cardio at lunch then tonight I will hit up some arms and a little shoulders. I also have to take some progress pictures for this little contest I am in. I think you should be able to notice a difference, the layer of fat on my stomach is thinner and my arms and even legs are becoming more vascular again. All my shirts fit tighter across the chest, back arms and shoulder. I can only assume I am losing fat while adding a little muscle. Pretty much the goal right now.

Last week after work the days I did not go lift I did some type of activity with my daughter every night. From jumping on the trampoline to playing boxing and track and field on the 360 Connect. Yesterday I did about 30 minutes out on the trampoline jumping with her to. Just trying to increase activity all around instead of just during the times I am at the gym.

Saturdays lift was pretty good I don't have my log with me but it was a good back and biceps day. I will hit some of the highlights I can remember here.

Close Grip Lat Pull downs, 5 sets last set was 220x10
Wide Grip Seated Cable Row - last set was 210x9
FST-7 Straight Arm Lat Pull Down - worked with 75 for the first 5 sets then dropped to 65 for the last 2 - talk about a nice burn and serious lat pump!

FST-7 EZ Bar Curl - Started with 85 got a few sets then weights dropped gradually down to 65 for the last set. Biceps had a massive pump!

FST-7 Rear Delt DB Swings - 42.5x5 sets, 37.5 x2 sets - THis exercise really hits my rear delt better than the other movements I have tried to hit them with. I foresee some growth coming in this area with the addition of this exercise.


Today I am going to go on my walk for cardio at lunch then tonight I will hit up my arms and shoulders.

If you are interested here is my relaxed eating from the weekend as you can tell the only relaxing was the gelatto.

Awesome update man. Was wondering if you feel off the map for a minute

 

[packers6211]

Awesome updates Kleen! Your style of log is always my fav! Now let me ask you why in the HHH was you not with your bro at that Warrior Dash!!!!

 

[Onlychevy6]

Awesome updates Kleen! Your style of log is always my fav! Now let me ask you why in the HHH was you not with your bro at that Warrior Dash!!!!

He got put on call for work had to back out night before. Needless to say he wasn't all that pleased.

The funny SOB said he thinks he would have slowed me down. Yeah right. He has been doing cardio and training. Not me. If anything he would have pushed me harder if even possible for me being that out of shape. I was huffin and puffin.

 

[MrKleen73]

Yeah I don't typically get on during the weekend or if I do it is just in passing. Getting on here can basically swallow a weekend day then you look up and your out of time for everything you intended to do over the weekend.

Awesome updates Kleen! Your style of log is always my fav! Now let me ask you why in the HHH was you not with your bro at that Warrior Dash!!!!

I ended up being on call for my work and couldn't go further than an hour away from work in case they needed me. I really wanted to go but wasn't worth risking it if something happened and I was needed but not available.

Well 5th overall out of your age group and 20th overall out of over 4000 competitors you were not in the average group that is for sure. Who knows if I could have kept up or not. Probably would have killed myself trying to keep up, and or beat you. LOL

 

[DreamWeaver]

That's like the top half percent...

 

[MrKleen73]

Yeah he did really well, very impressed with his performance.

 

[oufinny]

Well done Jeff!

 

[MrKleen73]

So yesterday was pretty good I went on an hour long walk at lunch then had a heavy workout on triceps and biceps. Here is my workout from last night.

Close Grip Bench - 45x25, 155x5, 185x5, 205x5, 235x6, 245x5, 255x5 Not sure if this is a PR or not but it is a damn nice weight.

Oly Bar Curls - 95x5, 95x6, 105x5, 115x4, 105x4, 95x4 - This is the heaviest I have gone on curls in a while. Also keep in mind my curls are done in strict form, elbows are pinned back and to the sides the entire lift. I can swing 135 up and down but it is just not the same focus, only makes me feel strong...

EZ-Bar front raises - 75x8, 75x6, 75x5, 75x5, 75x5, 75x5 - These were giving me a wicked pump in my shoulders and biceps.

EZ Bar curl 75x10, 75x8, 75x8 finishing off the biceps...
Close Grip Push Ups 10, 10, 20 - finishing off the front delts and triceps.

These were my eats for the day yesterday.

This morning the workout went well also, I did legs this morning and will more than likely not walk for exercise later. Here is how the workout went today.

Wide Stance Squats - 135x12, 225x12, 275x12, 315x10, 335x6, this was really pretty good considering I had a hard time getting to 300 last time I did them. I am either getting stronger or better at them.

FST-7 Seated Leg Curl - 100x12, 100x10, 100x6, 90x9, 80X9, 80x5 - Man were the hammies burning after this

Leg Press - 360x12, 540x12, 720x10, 810x8, 810x7 Kept legs close together and low on platform to really hit quads. Felt great, definitely felt that fatigue from the squats that I was hoping for. Legs were feeling huge by the end of these!

FST-7 Leg Extensions - 170x12, 170x8, 160x8, 150x6, 130x9, 130x5, 110x7 - Holy hell my quads were on fire from this. Was walking like Frankenstein after these.

I would definitely say these last two workouts are showing some promise with increased weights. The only consistent scale I have used is at the doctors and it weighed me in over 5 lbs heavier than I was 3 weeks ago when I went in. I feel I have grown and am tempted to believe that I may have put on 5 lbs with the cocktail I have going on. Here are some progress pics of me to give you an idea of where I am now.
I feel I am leaning out on the side of the abdomen and definitely in the arms and more noteably in the legs. Also it may just be the brighter lighting but I think I am leaning out in the upper back. My stomach is not thicker than it was, and as of yesterday at home with just boxers on I was 213.1 down from 215. Of course I have gotten a new scale since then. I am more apt to believe I have put on some weight since the Dr scale has not been moved and is most likely the better of the scales i use.

By the way, I got my pre-cycle blood work back and just about everything was in the normal. However what we all wanted to know was what was my testosterone level going into this since I told you I could tell I had not been able to fully recover. Well it is 386, to high for her to put me on TRT but not high enough for me to really feel like a man. I will go back after this run and have someone who specializes in TRT have a look at it while it is in the bucket.

Thanks I am really working it hard and trying to make myself stick to this new plan of higher carb and lower fats during a cut. Never been my game but then again I am willing to take some carb induced cravings to see if I can not only get lean but remain full of glycogen also. For me right now it is really hard to tell whether or not I am making much progress. I see a little bit. I know for a fact my arms, shoulders and legs are getting bigger though.

It's hard cuz it goes against what most believe but my coach has been telling to do this as well, and it definitely works. Post show we will bring fats up a bit and increase hi carb days a little not much tho. It's all about what works for you. Nice work buddy

I see improvements in side abdomen, arms an upper back as well. Doing good big man!

I agree with this as well!

If I do a high carb day I keep my fats low and vice versa... as long as you don't mix the two. Don't what to be getting a lot of insulin response with your bloodstream full of fat is the way I always looked at it. I think we need to get more of a balance, it's really about timing.

Yeah in normal eating I would definitely be making sure I had a bit of a balance. I have some news that will change the face of this log. I just won an 8 week Transformation Coaching period with Invalid Link Removed our very own MattyS4's Fitness and Wellness Coaching. Basically what this means is I will not be in charge of what I am eating and they may revamp my workout. I plan to give this my all so keep an eye out and whatever changes come will be coming from my coach. I assume I will be starting either this weekend or beginning of next week. I just won it so I am very excited to see what having a coach is all about.

Here are my eats from yesterday:

Today I did walking and hill walks / hill sprints I walked 1 mile to the place I refer to as Cardio Hill, then walked up and down it 10 times then ran up walked back 10 time and then walked up and back 10 more times for total of 30 times up the hill then used the walk back as my cool down. Here is a picture of Cardio Hill to give you an idea, it is about 35 yards top to bottom and about 25 yards high. You can tell by the small size of the big full grown trees that this hill is not a punk, it is not a huge hill but plenty steep enough and long enough to make me work hard.

This second picture is just of my view of the skyline from the bottom of cardio hill. My building is right behind the mirrored on in front it is kind of a pinkish brown hue. Anyway was a beautiful day and the skyline looked pretty from there so I thought I would share.

 

[Montego1]

I'm going to set up a tree blind and go hunting for Kleen's........

 

[Hyde]

That's an awesome cardio location! Really is beautiful. My lazy self would def just be lounging under a tree tho shouting at you to hustle harder for the both of us. And you are definitely leaner than start of log, no doubt. Muscles seem bigger as well, or AT LEAST more full. Progress is showing big guy!

You liking the SAN Isolate? I've been eyeing it for a while before I noticed it in your log.

 

[bean5er]

I saw that on FB Kleen that's awesome!!

You will enjoy this a lot. Matty and his wife are doing big things and are great people. I would recommend them to anyone. I hope to be a sponsored athlete of theirs soon

Very excited to see the results

 

[DreamWeaver]

Nice scenery... can't wait to get into some outdoor hiking. I live right by the St. Lawrence River and my gym is right at the bottom of a monster hill the leads to he top of Mount Royal. I am about 20 minutes to the Canal that leads to Old Montreal and the Port.

I liked it a lot it actually tasted really good with only water and in milk it was even better.

Yeah me too I just got the breakdown for the first 4 weeks. We can adjust it after that but right now it is looking pretty good. It is similar to my recent approach but far more exact on what and when to take in my carbs and calories.

Yeah that will be nice. I remember you talking about that hill from last year.

So those were my eats for yesterday.

Okay, I got my first couple weeks worth of diet plan already and they really came through. I like the layout of the diet. I don't think I can explain it too much directly but basically carbs and calories will be getting cycled. I can't give the macros and all of that in an outline but I think I can still post up everything I am eating. I will check with him to make sure what the logistics are.

I will say this, just the initial experience with Invalid Link Removed has been great, MattyS4 seems to have a handle on things and is very responsive. He soaks in the information you give him and tries to accomodate your preferences while still reshaping the lay of your diet or training. Speaking of training, he said he likes the current workout I am doing and that it fits my goals very well so I will keep up with the same split and style I have for the last couple weeks.

I just finished a trip to cardio hill, for my lunch break and burned off probably 400-450 calories. Things are going well, diet is on point for what I have been doing and I am going to be starting the exact diet from him on Monday if not kicking it in just before.

Bossbody is good people. They're gonna steer you in the right direction and now its up to you. You're gonna nip this in the butt bro. If you don't mind, just wondering what your supp list looks like atm?

 

[MrKleen73]

Not a problem, my supps are
2 caps of 1-Alpha & 550XD morning and night.
PX Black 2 a day morning and around 10:30 or 11:00AM.
Max PUMP 30 minutes preworkout with pre-workout supps, including creatrona powder, BCAA+SAA 2 scoops pre and post workout.
ALC+CLA 4 caps twice a day with meals.
CELL SHOCK between 0-2 scoops post workout depending on carb allowance for the day.
I am also taking Achilles for joints 2 caps morning and night, same with TALOS for my lipids, bp and what not. Plus I have about 6-8 triple strength fish oil caps per day.

Okay so a little bit of an update. Nutrition has been good although today I did have a frozen yogurt. Other than that my nutrition hs been pretty much perfect. Tomorrow I start eating the mmeals and or macros suggested in my plan. For now I will just put up my workout from Saturday.

Close Grip V handle lat pull down - 120x12, 180x10, 210x8`95x7, 180x8 - Could feel the muscles not used to this grip some nworked muscles got to burning like a mofo.
Wide Pronated Grip Cable Rows - 120x12, 150x10, 165x12, 180x10, 100x8 - These felt great hitting parts of me I haven't worked a lot on recently.
FST-7 Standing straight arm cable lat pull - 75x12, 75x12, 75x12, 75x10, 75x9, 75x6, 60x5 - Woowee! That was a nice burn, my chest was even pumped by the end of these.

FST-7 Incline DB Curls - 22.5x12, x12, x10, x10, x10, x9, x8 Holy burn, I was doing these with my wrist broke back and the concentration and contraction on the biceps was ridiculously more intense. Had not done that in a while.

FST-7 Rear Delt Swings - 40x12, x12, x12, x12, x10, x10, x9 - This is the second time I have done these and I jusr really feel them better in my rear delts than rear delt raises or flies where you end up engaging your traps.


Okay now for the update on me. I continue to see myself leaning up a bit I think you will probably agree I look more solid in these pics even though I am not flexing in anyway shape or form. Interestingly enough I am weighing in at 214.5 this morning so I have only officially lost .3 lbs. Yet to me I have cleaned up more than that. I must be growing a bit of muscle, that and my shirts just keep getting tighter and tighter on my arms shoulders and chest. Anyway these are the Official before pics for this 8 week plan.

Look great Kleen, and nice supp list. Simple but effective. I always look at my cell shock and want some. Just trying to float my carbs around 100 though. Damn stuff is just super tasty lol.

 

[snagencyV2.0]

214.5!!! :shocked:
hyooge

I have been loving Talos. The dosage of CoQ10 and SAMe alone help justify its pricetag. Will def be using it again for future cycle support, better than Life Support or Cycle Assist easy IMO. Just pricier.

Keeping them to 100 just have 1 scoop post workout get the glycogen back in your muscle.

214.5!!! hyooge

Yeah I keep seeing new vascularity or less fat on my stomach and expecting the scale to go down a couple lbs but I just seem to get leaner at the same weight. Not complaining sooner or later that will make for a very large and lean me. I fully expect the fat loss to surpass the muscle gain but I had some muscle memory trying to get me back to my prior size as soon as an ample level of anabolics were introduced. I am very curious to see where this ends up.

Yeah when I looked at it I liked it for all those reasons and the SAM-E as the liver support is awesome since it doesn't stop the steroids from processing like milk thistle. It is also good for the joints and a sense of well being. A good thing to have when feeling alpha is a good mood.

 

[packers6211]

Boy u is one sexy lil baldy man!!!! Insane update pics brother. I hope to one day look as lean as you.

 

[iparatroop]

You're a big dude Kleen. One thing I notice from the back is that your traps are gonna be ridiculous once you lean out. I look forward to seeing you in the single digits... Dem traps.

agreed - he's added muscle since last time we shredded up together for sure..much thicker in the back, more obvious muscle all round..be patient - but yes, dude gonna look pretty damn awesome at the end of the game

 

[Montego1]

Kleen had a wicked transformation last year. I can already see big changes since first pics were taken. Looks much more solid, especially in the mid section, for sure. From what I saw last year he will kill it, not to mention he has a nutrition coach now as well. Not very fair poor Scotty Doc

Just keep working and start actually counting those calories and you will be there before you know it. You have a ton of muscle already.

Thanks, yeah I do not do direct trap work, they become over bearing. They already overshadow my delts. I don't have weak delts but they don't look that big sitting beside those big beasts. That is a big part of the reason I am working my shoulders more right now.

Amazing what the addition of dead lifts will do to a guys back huh? It is definitely much thicker and the concentration on lower traps and lats has definitely made a difference in the overall look of my back.

Thanks! I am working hard at it. By the way, ScottyDoc had to pull out of the competition before it even started. We both have a new plan for a just he and I competition for this summer. He always tries to get lean for Halloween and I will be getting ready for an October show. So we are going to see who can be the most ripped by Halloween. No other criteria other than who looks the most shredded. Should be a fun competition. Right now in the MeatHeads challenge it is Doug AKA DreamWeaver, and 2 other guys, I think one of them skipped out though... As of right now Doug has the over all physique imagine that... then I have the most progress. FINAFLEX IN DA HOUSE BABY!!!

Today is the first day of my diet following the Boss Body diet. Doing well so far, I have some precooked food, and my shakes up here. Starting point 214.5 lbs. I do not have body fat measurement. I may go to one of the gyms tonight to see if they can do it but I am not sure I wan't to be around the crowds. I do have to lift arms tonight anyway so there is a decent chance I will suck it up and go in instead of just lifting in my garage. We shall see. I honestly don't think body fat percentage is that important. However it is a decent tool to track progress if you have the same person do it every time. I may just order another caliper and do it myself. Probably the way to go.

The plan for today is to do cardio at lunch, then hit arms and shoulders tonight.

 

[Airborne42]

You got this Kleen! This is easy Money for you!

 

[DreamWeaver]

I think I will be able to maintain the overall physique and Chris will probably take transformation hah just the opposite of what happened last year Chris and I... we are either in good shape or we're about to be We don't fug around!!!

 

[MrKleen73]

AMEN to that. Doug where is the full size picture of your Avi I wanna see it. Your back looks SICK in that avi!
