RickRock turns RIPPEDRock with Helladrol/Trenazone and LEAN GAINS!!

[MidwestBeast]

I just made a double layer cheesecake, tastes AWESOME! I mixed half just normal and put it in the pie dish, then I mixed in chocolate protein in the second half and put it on top, then put the whole thing in the oven. Turned out perfect, and looks professional. Great stuff, and great macros.

:yumyum:

 

[RickRock13]

That pizza will do you some good man. Don't sweat the water will fall off without doing anything different than normal.

Yeh man I'm not worried about it. I already look much more dry and defined tonight. Its like night and daay beetween this mornings bloat and how I look now. I'm starting to get the hang of how my body reacts to certain foods and excessive carbs.



And you guys are making me seriously want more of that cheesecake. I'm just about salivating at the mouth thinking about it....next time the wife goes to the store I'm going to have her pick up the ingredients

Someone wants more topless pics of Rick... :hug:

Where do I get this cheesecake recipe?

 

[schwellington]

rick what would you say your average caloric intake is? Im cutting mine down from 2700-2800 to probably 2500

 

[RickRock13]

I'm on my phone now but I will post a copy of it up when I get back to the PC

 

[RickRock13]

rick what would you say your average caloric intake is? Im cutting mine down from 2700-2800 to probably 2500

I've been taking in around 3k on workout days and about 1800 on cardio/rest days, so I average 2500ish throughout the week with 3 workout days and 4 cardio or rest days

That's pretty much mine too. Its working really well for me right now.

Yeh man I think I have found what works best for recomp in my situation. Seems to be working well so far.

 

[Tomahawk88]

Either your log is very epic or I am extremely bored because I just read it from start to finish. Im thinking it is the former Great job Rick really seeing some damn good progress. This looks like a great stack. I will have to do something similar. IF definitely seems to be the way to go.

Yes man it truly has been amazing on this IF/Lean Gains diet. Everything has been going great on cycle and off. The cycle has just accelerated things a bit..:sgrin:


DAY 29

I'm starting my fifth week with guns blazing. I had a pretty good chest and triceps workout, but I didn't really notice any more strength gains from last week. Vascularity is on a whole new level where veins are starting to be pretty visible even without the pump. That's what I love is to look lean and vascular without having to get pumped up first. I'm guessing I've leaned a little more, but I did weigh in heavier at 173 this morning.

I was going to bump my dosage of Trenazone up, but it looks like I'm going to have to stay at 1.5ml if I want my bottle to last to the end, so I will probably leave it there. No biggie because I am getting decent gains at this dose. But it would have been nice to see what 2ml would have been like..:sgrin:

 

[RickRock13]

DAY 30

Had a great cardio session today and diet was right on point at 1800ish. Did treadmill at 6.3 MPH on a 5.5% incline for about 25 minutes and burned nearly 400 Cal's. My heart rate was up quite a bit and I was sweating so bad that I really needed a mop to clean the machine when I was done. I dripped sweat all over that thing!!

I took some more pics today and I didn't realize just how much I've progressed until I looked at my last pics. In just a couple weeks or less I can see major changes. I've leaned out quite a bit more noticeably and its apparent that I've added some LBM too. I look more full and bigger, and this is on a burn day! If it were on a workout day I would look even more full with the higher carbs and Cal's.

Hopefully my next pics (which will more than likely be my end of cycle pics) will be just as big of changes as these were. As far as body changes go, this has been the most successful cycle I have ran....

 

[MakaveliThaDon]

Dude are u f'ing serious!?

That is truly amazing progress bro.

 

[Milas]

Great progress Rick, looking ripped for sure!

 

[MidwestBeast]

Jaw-dropping, bro. Insane progress in your delts and chest in particular just between now and your last update. You're avatar is gonna start lookin like Unreal's soon.

 

[Tomahawk88]

Geez you are making me want to go on cycle lol. Some insane progress going on in here. You are truly KTS!

 

[RickRock13]

Dude are u f'ing serious!?

That is truly amazing progress bro.

Thanks a lot bro. I actually amazed myself when I compared pics. I knew there were changes but didn't realize the extent until the side by side comparison

 

[RickRock13]

Thanks a lot everyone for the kind words. I really appreciate all of it, and that support is exactly what helps motivate me to keep everything on point!

DAY 32

Weight: 170.5



I've had a great couple days. Yesterday was a build day and I killed it on some Back and Biceps. T-bars, DB Rows, BB curls, hammer curls, and a couple other exercises were up a little. No huge jumps, but the weight felt good and controlled. My strength is not skyrocketing, but that is not what I have my diet or training geared towards, so its expected to be there. It doesnt bother me one bit, because my goals have been purely body composition. I would be willing to bet that this cycle with a big calorie surplus and doing a power routine would give some incredible strength gains. I am still seeing big changes in vascularity everytime I hit the weights and get that pump going.

Burn day today and I put in a good 45 minutes total on cardio. 30 minutes time on treadmill with 15 minutes HIIT on Elliptical. Between the two I burned about 630 cals, so I am pretty happy with that. Diet is good today, but it looks like I am going to end up a little over the 1800 target. Probably around 2k because instead of the normal chicken breast for dinner I am going with 8 oz. of steak instead. :food:

Body changes are still coming in great. I am pretty sure my final pics at the end of cycle will be pretty drastic and incredble if everything continues like it has since the start. Skin is starting to tighten up a little better around the midsection that is making the abs more visible and of course vascularity is still rising where I have veins showing very well even at rest. My thinking is that if I can drop between another half to 1% more by the end of this, I will look pretty damn incredible.

 

[MidwestBeast]

No doubt the final pics will be crazy, Rick. With you getting to such a low bf%, you could even toy around with adding in some Thiomucase with or without clen to go down the home stretch

Its funny you say that, because I was considering Thiomucase and ordering it to try and tighten things up further. I'm still not for sure yet, but I may give it a shot

 

[schwellington]

rick, you are, without a doubt- a fat ass

Try it out bro! It's cheap anyways!

 

[MidwestBeast]

Try it out bro! It's cheap anyways!

Down the road, I'm planning on doing that and picking up some liquid clen to add in. Should be fun!

 

[RickRock13]

Yeh that would be. For now I'm avoiding clen...

 

[BarbellBeast]

Yup.... I've used it. Works!

 

[BarbellBeast]

Yeh that would be. For now I'm avoiding clen...

Ya really you don't need the clen man... The thio tho will suck some of that water out on your abs and what not... Works great, I'd give it a try for sure!

 

[MidwestBeast]

Yeh that would be. For now I'm avoiding clen...

We'll see about that, Rick!

I've won over more difficult peer pressure battles than this, before! lol :laugh:

 

[RickRock13]

Well I figure that I'm cutting up pretty good without clen so why throw that and all its side effects in there.

I had an awesome burn day yesterday, and its incredible the changes your body can make from a good clean up. I was 169 this morning and just looked awesome after waking. Very dry, vascular, and defined. That is saying a lot considering usually when I wake up I may look dry, but usually not vascular. I was impressed and it is evident that I dropped some more BF as of lately.

Today is a build day. I'm looking forward to some big eating and some big lifts!!

 

[gymrat827]

Try it out bro! It's cheap anyways!

yeah, would like to see the results you would get being the the BF% you are already at.

 

[MrKleen73]

Should be nice if you do. I would suggest if this is the best you have ever looked set up a sitting with a photographer and get some high quality pics. You could schedule it out and use the thio to peak for them. Then you always have 1 good shot from when you were ripped. Plus will give you something else to motivate you.

I have some and plan to do the same once I hit 6%.

By the way Rick looking fugging awesome! Some how I wasn't getting updates on this since the last time I posted in here on the 19th. Glad I went looking for it again.

Thanks a lot Kleen! I would like to do some professional shots eventually, but right now I just wont have the cash for a while with a wife on maternity leave without bringing income in. In a couple months I may do that though, and I may be look more impressive anyways because I think I'm going to take this recomp as far is it will take me. As long as I keep adding LBM and dropping BF, why not? I could be sitting at a bigger Fuller 7% in a couple months time

BTW....I was wondering where you had been in my log...lol

 

[MrKleen73]

Just a suggestion, if in a crunch many places keep the negatives or files for a while in case you want to order later. A Walmart sitting is like 10 bucks, some of the other places 20. You can get them taken and go back and pay for the pics later but you would have them.

 

[RickRock13]

DAY 34

I had a great workout and build day yesterday. I actually managed to hit some PRs on some lifts. I started out with some Arnold presses and cranked out 70sx10 which should be a 1 Rep increase from my personal best. I believe 9 reps is the best I ever did on my SD/EPI bridge. Shrugs, squats, leg presses, upright rows....pretty much everything was up. A lot of people are complimenting me on my lifts and not just my physical changes now. Especially noting how much weight I'm putting up at 170 lbs. :sgrin:

The body changes continue and if I took pics again today everyone would see big changes from my last ones which were only like 5 days ago. But I'm going to hold out for pics until the end. I'm fairly certain the progress will be impressive. My midsection has made leaps and bounds over the last week. I have veins going down my obliques showing up faintly and a couple others in there that are badass!

Cardio/burn day today but the diet will be a little off. The family and I are heading out to spend the day at a water park and I'm pretty much left to choose from whatever is available there. But I'm not worried about it. I'm planning on having tomorrows day make up for it dietwise and keep the Cal's at my 1800. I did have a great cardio session with 45 minutes of treadmill and elliptical that I burned 600 Cal's. :thumbsup:

 

[Onlychevy6]

On your cardio are you going at a moderate pace, H.I.I.T., or slow pace to keep heart rate down.

 

[BarbellBeast]

Looking forward to the end results.. Already know they're gonna be epic. How many days you got left of this cycle?

 

[RickRock13]

On your cardio are you going at a moderate pace, H.I.I.T., or slow pace to keep heart rate down.

I do mostly moderate to high intensity with some HIIT. a typical cardio session would be 30 minutes treadmill of which would be about 15 minutes of 15% incline walking 3.5 MPH and 15 minutes of jogging at 6 MPH with 5% incline. I follow that up with 15 minutes HIIT on elliptical

Tomorrow starts my 6th and final week, so I plan on KTS down this stretch! :sgrin:
