Well even if it is almost over, you sir, have run a great consistent log bud.

Awesome detail and awesome workouts to boot.
 
Great lift bro! I hate running out of supps... Hopefully you can get something in Canada to suffice temporarily!

I do have some Xtend and RecoverPro and a bunch of BPI Blox samples to work with. But I have never felt recovery from BCAA like this before.

Solid workout, excellent pump in my chest and arms. Last time I used MaxPUMP the effects hung around for about 5-6 days so still some great 'pump' workouts to be had. I figure I have about 5 servings of G8 left. I will do my review when in a few days as I would like to see the difference in recovery without my BCAASAA.
 
Nice lift, you really crushed it!

Thanks Snags, appreciate the kind words - just trying my hardest to be the best I can be. After all gotta show the kids (teens) with a bit of hard work good things can happen.

Proudly raised in Canada, but born in England...

does that mean it was once-broken, then?

:lol:

and i'm glad to see you noted "no dreams that you can recall"
much better than "I didn't dream at all" ...
we all dream, all the time during sleep;
whether we remember them or not, is entirely different issue

That would be it,my sleep was broken.. But only once and briefly at that.. smart a$$ lol. You can be a funny dude Steve.

How do they know we are always dreaming, if we do not remember? Brain activity?
 
wasme said:
Negative accentuated I suppose as I have done it with a 5 second negative and then explosive back up... or is that not quite NA ?
Click to expand...

That's correct:) NA it is

full negatives on squats are almost impossile. You would need 2 spotters, and it would be highly risky business
 
9/23/2013

Dosed a 1/2 scoop of G8 at 11:00pm

Sleep last night - 7.5 hours - broken only once Snags :toofunny:

Dream status - No recollection

Morning feeling - Wide awake.

Did a quick 5km run through the park this morning and then off to work.

No weights today.

- I have decided to play with dosing on my last few scoops. At full scoop I am dead to the world, wake groggy but am able to shake it off fairly quick. Dream status was either strong dreaming awareness or nothing. 1/2 scoop good restful sleep (sometimes aware of my dreams sometimes not) and usually awake refreshed.


- There is no water in our building here at work. So we are going for the day! No bathrooms/no sprinklers... good day!
 
Trying to catch up, looking good in here so far though, Simon. Glad you're enjoying the products. I'll be taking my first dose of G8 in about a month and a half tonight. I can't wait.
 
9/24/2013

Dosed a 1/2 scoop of G8 at 11:00pm

Sleep last night - 6.5 hours - had a few wake ups but was caused by noise on the street, which normally doesn't happen.

Dream status - Remember dreaming just not sure what.

Morning feeling - Wide awake.

Did a quick 5km run through the park this morning and then off to work.

Back/Shoulders Hypertrophy still to come (after work and with an update)
