decent workout man! Keep up the hard work!
Ran outWhy did you stop the cissus if it was working?
Days 8
Just Shoulders:
DB Shoulder press - 75 x 11 / 75 x 10 / 65 x 10 (drop) 50 x 5
DB Raise - 35 x 15 / 35 x 15 (drop) 25 x 10
Took 4 Cordygen5 again and it DEFINETLY helps with set to set endurance. I've never had my reps only drop like 1 rep from first to second set...
Nice man. Nice! Excellent workout and workout tactics.Day 15 Shoulders and Tri
HOLY ****!! I have quoted myself below to show the changes! I did cheat and have an energy drink but wow
DB Shoulder press - 80 x 11 / 80 x 10 / 80 x 8 (drop) 60 x 6
DB Raise - 40 x 15 / 40 x 15 (drop) 30 x 8
Close grip bench - 205 x 10 / 205 x 7
Reverse one arm cables (plate loaded) - 25 x 14 (no rest) x 8 (no rest) x 6 (drop) 20 x 6
**confusing but just switched arm to arm without rest (inspired by force ha)
I honestly look bigger than when I was on heavy stuff, people are asking me whatt I am no now ha
In time, everything will become clear.Day 15-16 OFF
15 and 16 were the weekend... My piece of **** gym is closed on the weekend.
Really didn't eat strict enough or sleep enough. Had like 3 cheat meals over 2 days. Didnt sleep at all on Saturday and didn't eat all night. Either getting fat or was bloated from this weekend. I am almost 2 weeks free of t3 so the hardest part is almost passed for that (research suggests most recovery from t3 is done within 2 weeks).
As far as adrenals go... I am definetly not going stone cold enough. Whenever I go out I use stims so I had a night with 2 VPX meltdown and an energy drink..
Day 17 - Back and Chest Heavy
The amazement at my strength continues ha!
Maybe my form isnt what it was with the light weights but it still very good and controled. I feel pretty laid back and not into working out but once I start the weight just moves. My so called gym is a big problem but I did ok...
Flat bench - 270 5x5
**Added 5 pounds again! - 5th set was as easy as the second because I was running on pure determination. I still think next week I will fail cause it was hard. Will try 275 next week which was my all time 5x5 high when on a heavy bulk cycle.
Pull ups - BW + 15 - 5x5
** Amazed at this because my bloat/fat added about 3 pounds over the weekend so really I was up 7-8 pounds with the added weight and going up 5. I am bad at these usually but I dont think +15 is too shabby
Definetly liking the strength. I give cordy the credit but whatever it is it helps keep my head up.
Shoulders are definetly tight and hae a hard time stretching out into my movements. Iknow that what causes all my injuries. I had a Dr tell me once I was almost as tight as anyone he ever came across which sucks. Another note: I do feel that some of the fog has cleared so I might be getting some energy bacl or it could be the lexpro which I started again at half my normal dose.
I have worked out with JR and the pull-ups he does are so slow and controlled i grow facial hair before he finishes. If he cheated on them at all he would easily be pulling up with 90lbs hanging.i thought u would love pull ups u have great lats bro !
hahaha i figured he did sum crazyy sheeitttttt lolI have worked out with JR and the pull-ups he does are so slow and controlled i grow facial hair before he finishes. If he cheated on them at all he would easily be pulling up with 90lbs hanging.
OHP?Damn son 180 on bb press is no joke. I just ordered some cordy for use later on this year. Your numbers are impressive for not being on heavy sh*t. If you are OHP'ing that much im sure your cg bench is going to shoot up rather quickly.
i cant wait to see what cordygen does for me endurance-wise while lifting.
Over-head pressing. :think:OHP?
You lost me on that one
my bad my bad yea that's it.Over-head pressing. :think:
Agreed.WOW, dude I just got caught up on this log, never seen anything like it. First of all, feel for ya man. Not sympathy (who needs that sh!t), just your whole situation - I feel ya.
Second, there's nothing wrong with your workouts (and you don't need an online trainer, save your $). Your exercise choices look fine. The only thing I might recommend is going away from the whole slow & controlled thing. Try quick & forceful concentric movements (if your body will allow), i.e. like a lot of pros do, and keep the eccentric (negative) only slow & controlled. Maybe this will help with you feeling the contraction..
As for your supp regime, I can only say, once again, WOW. You're into some territory that's waaay beyond my depth and experience. I genuinely wish you the best. It's nice to see the change in "tone" your log took on page #4, and I hope things continue upward for you.
Yeah but it happens to me every week!It happens to all of us man, its sucks ... Hope you get better soon
WOW! To hit that range I would need to use like 135 pounds on bench... By lighter I meant 12-15 never considered that high of a dose because to even get to 15 I will need to go pretty light.When you come back, embrace the lighter-weight theme (ala Kris Dim), shoot for that 25-30 rep range; again, short quick & powerful concentrics, controlling the negative motion. You can still get some beneficial training in man!
I still do my legs with high reps... I just go as many times as I can. I like the high rep scheme for a change-up too. I've plugged just 100-120lbs into the leg press setting and did a straight set of 100 reps in a few workouts.Sooo.. let's try something different for a minute man.
Nothing to lose, right? The current way shows only ultimate negative progression. I'm not talking about this philosophy for life, just for now.
It's a great blend. It's one of those things that you can use all year round to modulate cortisol.interested in endoamp for cort control, haven't seen many reviews...
Absolutely. There's a few different ways to do hi-reps too, other than straight-setting & dropping the weight to nothing. Incorporating rest/pause technique; even repping out to failure, resting 30 seconds, reppping to failure again, repeat for cycle - an extended sort of rest/pause. Lots of options..I still do my legs with high reps... I just go as many times as I can. I like the high rep scheme for a change-up too.

If I could do the 95lb dumbells for more than 18 reps or so on flat DB bench I would. I like pushing myself with many exercises on the weight aspect, but for me it's all about stimulation and focus.
Ever try the 100-rep squat? Sh!t'll make you puke & fall out.. but I love it!I still do my legs with high reps...
Jesus... I used a medicine ball and did 75 squats with only a 25lb ball and of course bodyweight.... I did that after a leg circuit and it was killer.Ever try the 100-rep squat? Sh!t'll make you puke & fall out.. but I love it!
Never thought of that... I guess I can try that mixing up techniques then maybe once every few weeks thorw in something heavy so my neurological recruitment doesn't slack off.Absolutely.

And change is good - I've said it in other logs, but it bares repeating: if there's one underlying philosophy in my own personal training, it's CHANGE. I am constantly tweaking this, that.
The bottom line tho is stimulation & focus, intensity.
