After getting PR's it's almost like we demand more PR's the week after when we do the lift aha, the way our anabolic minds work lol (cwatididthur) lol

Rest up and kill it next time.

JD, I know this guy can do it. Definitely mire PRs ahead. I am still not going to let go of the fact that he includes a 5 km run in his workouts and I don't care when he does it.

Yeah for sure, doing a 5k run at the end of every workout takes a lot of dedication.

Recovery: 9 - fully recovered this morning
Joint Health: 7 - knee is good, elbow is bothering me from todays workout though. Its almost like a tennis elbow feeling. I had read somewhere that this can be a direct result of rope pushdowns (which I have swapped for V bar on triceps) and preacher curls...anyone know if this is true? If so..I might need to replace this with something else (perhaps on just one of the days).
Skin: Oily again, but perhaps that is just the fact that it is hotter the a hinge on a whorehouse today...
Sleep Quality: 10 - excellent 8 hour sleep!
 
Aaahhhh. I love shoulder days. Especially the presses. It's such an alpha exercise, lifting heavy weight overhead. Great workout wasme !
 
How's your appetite ? I heard ABE increases it.

Thanks workout was great this morning..

Appetite is up. I do seem to go through cycles 4-5 days where I could eat everything in site, then a couple of days where I am very satisfied with not whole lot. I would say it was higher when I was taking Anabeta (1st gen) + Prime.
 
Thanks guys...

Off day today...

That puts 4 weeks to bed... and I have to say: strength, recovery, sleep, endurance and energy are all noticeably up. Pump, vascularity are also up but could at times that might be from certain pre-workout products. Although even as I sit here typing, I have not worked out in 30 hours, and I have great vascularity and muscle hardness.

Libido is also up. My last stack Prime/Anabeta I saw no increase in Libido. Appetite has also been increased all week, and joints are overall much better this week.

Tomorrow is another day off, but I do have a week from hell coming up. So depending on my mood I might start my week tomorrow.

Cheers boys!

I agree. I typically wake up, slug back Licogenix and a couple of other caps and it gets me out of bed. From your experiences in your last log, when I try MASS HGH I might need Licogenix to get me up each day! lol.

I may be a bad responder to L-Dopa. Or too good of a responder. The sluggishness is ridiculous.
My system is weird in that I can take OEP before bed and fall asleep within 20 minutes.

So for someone who never has issues with sleep, maybe L-Dopa swings too far on the other side of the pendulum ?
 
Another great update!

I hate it when I take a caffeine type fat burner and go to sleep, feel so weird when you wake up lol

Sorry didn't get my update in last night. Got up and did my run first thing in the morning, went to work, and weights right after that. Then took my wife to see Train last night so did not have time to get back on here. (ie Libido was in check last night! lol)

Was -

Quick question for you. Anabeta Elite: Do you get the black hole that cannot be filled while on the AE?

Just curious.

No where near as intense as it was on the Anabeta / Prime stack.

Interesting. I may have to think about it for the future. Thanks for the feedback!
 
No problem Colby. I have wondered the next time around if I should try 4 Anabeta Elite + 2 Anabeta just for a little something added..

Day 35: Day off.

Normally I do not post on a day off, but am today as I have noted what I think to be an interesting observation. So after work yesterday, I raced home did my workout, showered up, bbq'd a couple of burgers and headed down to the Molson Amphitheatre to see Alice Cooper/Iron Maiden. Hit the parking lot early with friends, and had a fair bit to drink. Went in, and continued the party. Concert was great, both bands were excellent and I had not seen them in years. Got home, drunk (typically I do not drink when on a stack - perhaps the odd beer). Took a couple of advil, and 6 endosurge and hit the pillow at 1am. I woke up at 1030am (that is pretty much a coma for me). And I feel like I had nothing to drink yesterday.

Was this just dumb luck, or is the recovery from this stack that good, and did the endosurge give me such a good rest that today I am without a hangover. Normally I would feel a little rough around the edges, but today I feel great.

Not saying I would do this often, just thought it was interesting. lol.
