Wow, another bottle run on top of this would be sweet.
It would be sweet indeed. I'm not sure if it will work out that way, but I'm definitely excited to have won another bottle regardless.

breezy11 said:Day 27
I got a good night’s sleep and work up feeling refreshed. I was expecting my legs to be in rough shape based on how they were feeling when I went to sleep, but was happy to feel the soreness had lessened quite a bit. At this point in the day, there isn’t much soreness left in them at all. My joints also saw improvement, as there weren’t any aches when I woke up and they held up great during today’s workout.
My weight made its usual increase after yesterday’s lack of activity and I weighed in at 212.8lbs (+5.8lbs from “Day 1”). I could tell I was holding a little water, but was still looking pretty lean with no visible increase in body fat beyond where I started. My calipers actually indicate that my stomach fat is still down a minimal amount from “Day1”.
I was somewhat pressed for time this morning, but managed to fit in a good breakfast before heading to the gym.

eggs, jalapeno chicken sausage, hash browns, waffles, and cereal
The calorie total of my meal matched yesterday’s breakfast exactly…I thought that was interesting lol.
Calories: 1680
Carbs: 193
Protein: 62
Fat: 79
I went to the gym shortly after my meal.
The following was taken pre workout:
1 cap Patented Anabolic
100mg caffeine
2 scoops Craze
2g ALCAR
2.5 scoops Protocol
1 scoop I-BCAA Max was used intra workout
My workout was a little earlier than I would have liked and I didn’t start out quite as focused as I’ve been recently. However, I continued to make improvements and gained focus not long after I began lifting. My endurance was great and I felt like I could have kept lifting for a while. I finally made myself leave, so I wouldn’t miss much football. I know I could have an “off day” in the gym eventually (it happens), but at this point, I’m thoroughly enjoying the consistent progress.

I was sweating heavily for the majority of my workout. Vascularity was strong per usual and the pump from the tricep super sets was intense. My arms blew up and I was stuck in “tough guy position” because I couldn’t fully lower them to my sides lol.
My diet is on track and I’ll have today’s calorie total and breakdown posted tonight.
Good lord! That meal looks amazing! So jealous!!
Bro any workout is a good one.. You been doing great since you started PA and you will only get better
Wow that's crazy getting vascular there bro, that's contest prep type stuff.
That veinage is definitely insane brotato! How depressing that this log is ending! Really wanted to see breezdaddy run this 2 bottles!!!!
breezy11 said:Thanks LTL. I'm not sure if you could tell, but I don't want it to end yet either lol. It's looking like we're both going to get our wish and I'll be able to keep going through the use of my second bottle. There will probably be a couple days without PA, but hopefully that won't have much of an impact.
Awesome news bro! You get a tracking number or any confirmation?

breezy11 said:Day 30 continued
It had been a while, but I seemed to notice a slight boost in my mood on the ride to the gym. As of now, I can't think of anything I did differently, prior/during dosing that would make the effect more noticeable.
I finished off my bottle of PA with another solid workout. Strength showed improvement with each exercise and my endurance was great as well. I'm really getting used to the consistent progress and am wondering if I'll notice a difference in performance if I go a few days without PA.

- I'm pretty sure I've made more progress with these over last month than I did the 3 months prior (at least). I'll have to go through my old workout notes and figure it out.

-I took an approach similar to the last time I did squats. I kept the reps higher and the sets down, which saved me some time. These were brutal and I think I'll be feeling it tomorrow.

-Not the most exciting improvement, but last week was the first time I maintained 12 reps over 3 sets and tonight I hit a new rep high.
The thermo effect wasn't as strong as yesterday, but was enough to have me sweating a good amount. My slightly enhanced mood (better than it was all day) lasted throughout my workout and I'm still feeling pretty good.
My caloric intake for the day reached its intended target.
Today's calorie total and breakdown were as follows:
Calories: 5759
Carbs: 643
Protein: 436
Fat: 169
(44/30/26)
Considering I finished my bottle of PA tonight, I'll do my best to get some updated pictures in the morning. I was hoping to have the lighting consistent with my original pictures to help provide a good comparison. The starting pics were taken during the day (shortly after waking up) with natural light and the sun will just be coming out when I leave for work tomorrow. If it doesn't work out very well, I'll take some more this weekend.
Way to finish up bro.. Sick workout my man..
Nice work on those pull ups man! Huge improvements this run!
breezy11 said:Thanks boss. I'll have to check, but I think I'm +6 on BW reps and pretty happy about it too.
Edit: I just checked. +6 BW reps (15 to 21) and +20lbs weighted (50x5 to 70x5).
Awesome! I was up 6 reps as well. PA consistency, perhaps? :lol:
Been a good log to follow; will you be continuing it for your second bottle?
breezy, your training is on point. killin' it.
breezy11 said:Picture Update
The current pictures didn't come out as good as I would've liked (due to the lighting), but I think they still provide an decent comparison. The changes in vascularity aren't as noticeable as they would be later in the day either. I can however, see an added prominence to some veins and additional ones as well. It usually takes a couple hours after I wake up/start moving before it becomes more apparent. I'll take a few more pictures when the changes are more evident (and with better lighting), but wanted to keep these consistent with the starting pictures (first thing in the morning).
Starting Pics: white shorts
Current Pics: (12 hours post PA dosing): dark shorts
Starting Weight: 207lbs
Current Weight: 210.2lbs (+3.2lbs)
