i had great gains and improvements during workouts while on FX! Lets see how the rest of your workouts go....
maybe you should start a log?
Ok here is a little information.
I'm 5 foot 8. 190LBs
I do cardio 4 times a week, I know people will say its a no no when you are trying to gain strength, but it hasn't effected me at all since I started getting more intense with it, and to tell you the truth my legs have gotten stronger.
My Bench is a concern it used to be my best lift and now its my worst. My shoulder started bothering me a while ago and I started getting weaker, and although my shoulder is better now my strength has never came back .
My diet is ok, well at least I get plenty of quality protein. I have Chicken Breast or Eggs in the morning. Egg Protein Drink for mid morning snack. Chicken, Turkey, or lean Beef sandwich, Slipping in some low fat lays. Two hours before I work out I have either Half can of turkey by itself or on stone ground Whole Wheat. I have 50 Grams of Whey after the workout follow by some sort of lean meat with some more Stone Ground Whole Wheat bread,Oatmeal, or some Cherrios. Followed before I go to bed with a Egg Protein Drink..
I take Cissus, Vitamin C 1.5-2 Grams, Fish Oil 5-8 grams daily, and a Multivitamin.
I'm trying to get my lifts up bench, squat, deadlift without gaining to much weight, well at least gain some here lose some there. I'm not looking to be ultra ripped, just in good shape and strong for my weight. I'm judging if the Mass FX helps by adding it along with keeping my normal routine I was doing before so its the only real variable.
I rarely ever miss workouts.
