chest pains ,chest pains everybody need some chest pains!!!!!!!!!!!!
hit it hard today and pre exhausted the pecs early on.
high and low cable flyes
4 sets ea of 15
incline bench
4 sets 10 135
flat bench on smith
4 sets 8-10 135
decline bench 105 4 sets 10
incline dumbbell press
30,40,40 10 reps each
flat cable flyes
4 sets 15
hex press
3 sets 15
after the cables I couldn't lift as much weight as I had wanted but as Dorian Yates says " it doesn't matter after the muscle is exhausted it's all good "
forgot to pack my Powermax in my bag and that made abig difference in the pump and focus of my workout. I definitely felt different today without it. it is in my bag Now!!!
I really wish I had away to get some side money for a run this fall but it isn't looking good. I guess i'll have to do it the old fashion way eat my way there. my job allows me no spare time to do anything to earn any so that isn't an option. maybe the good fairy will leave me some on my birthday next month.

did a TORQ workout on legs tonight . it's one exercise per muscle group with high reps minimum rest
did legs , calves and arms
leg extensions 90 lbs 30,20,10
leg curls 70-30,20,10
seated calf raises-95-30,20,20,15,10
preacher curls -55-20,20,15,10,5
straight bar pushdowns-70-30.20,15,10
I never though doing a medium high weight (for my workout) would take me to failure this fast but I was stopping on the single reps to rest and get half reps.
I know I will be sore as hell tomorrow because when I switched from extensions to curls the bar on the machine was killing my quads . I thought my calves would explode on the raises. all in 30 minutes. I am just trying to change things up and keep the muscles thinking what is next, I know this may seem unorthodox to the veterans but this is a regime really used a lot by older athletes because of not being able to take the big weight anymore. joint and tendon pains getting in the way , age slowly trying to stop us. screw that, blow the muscles mind as much as possible I say. but I could be wrong I am just becoming an old fart!

probably gonna take another day off today because my shoulder is still keeping me up at night. doesn't really bother me during the day thought , weird!
all my kids are working out daily now. situps , pushups , jumping jacks really cool to see them taking stock in what dad is doing. my daughters saw a little fat roll around their midsection and freaked out. all that summer laying around on rainy days snacking takes its toll!lol

well of course I didn't take a day off! I hit chest today really hard with the TORQ workout. I did four exercises though instead of just one.
decline dumbbell press 40 lbs for 50 reps, 35, 20,15, 10, 16 superset with cable bentover press
(taking the place of dips) that really wrecked my pecs good. takes all the stress off your arms and isolates the pecs.
4 sets 35,45,45,55 for 20 each
flat flyes
4 sets 50,40,30,20 with 15,20,20,25 lb dumbbells
superset with cable flyes
45 for 20, for two sets, 55 for 20, 65 for 12
that was a workout. shoulder started pinching a little on the last set so I went no farther. cannot risk any type of injury this year. I upped my cals a little by about 5-600 a day with protein shakes around 200 cals each with 8 grams protein, 22 carbs so I take about 2-3 each day in the morning before breakfast to jump start my day. my gut look a little inflated lately so I am gonna watch it and see if that is what is doing it . my workouts haven't changed any in fact they have increased in intensity so I am not sure I understand why I am gaining fat. the powermax rocks my workouts and I sweat like hell during them so my cardio is up from minimal rest times. all I did today was in 30 minutes! I am taking another companies fat burner at two a day to help control but it may still be in the placebo phase . it usually take two weeks to kick in and my appetite hasn't diminished like before on it. I will keep an eye on it. Performax is working out great for me , really like the minimal stim but the focus is unbelievable .

Final workout on the powermax. Blasted out a second leg workout this week with leg press/calf press for three sets.
Light full squats 4set
Leg curls and extensions -95 for extensions 4sets

I posted a review but evidently it didn't take so her ewe go again1
this review is for Performax's Powermax preworkout
overall this product did exactly what it said. it kept me focused in my workouts, it gave me energy to want to do more with them but it didn't jitter me up like a lot of them do. I could take this before bed and not be bagging off the walls .
taste was a little on the sweet side but in the end I not looking to drink this stuff for dinner or through the day. I feel personally that if companies focus on making there products taste great why don't they just make Kool Aid . these are supplements guys they shouldn' t taste awesome . I had one guy that owns a supps store nearby give me his assessment of another preworkout and he said it was awesome but it tasted like "ass" and indeed it did!
I would suggest take some of the sweetener out and you have got the total package . for me this was the best I have take overall. I am stim sensitive due to high blood pressure so I really have had to shop around and waste a lot of money to find one that does it all . this one does.
got very vascular during all my workout using Powermax. I said that several times during the log. Arms , chest and shoulders even legs had veins popping everywhere. now I am not the skinny guy buy no means I am very tight in my arms and shoulder area but I had a vein come out in my abdomen and there is no six pack there! at least not yet. want to let who reads this know I am turning 52 in 14 days so for someone my age to get the goods from a product is saying something. I used to be tired as hell after work every day but I hit the iron right after for an hour hard as any young guy in the gym. so believe me when I say you need to try this one out , you will not be let down. it will be in my arsenal from here on out.
Great job on the product to the company. Thanks to Nickscox15 and adizzle1 for following along. need anything from me in the future or beta logging let me know. I am your man. Sincerely Bo .
