I was always a Donatello guy. Mostly because I'm a nerd.
 
Dwayne Johnson went from arount 235 to 285 and leaner if he did it naturally I would be AMAZED! Hell I am amazed if he did it with gear in that short time. For a while he had been working very hard to shed a lot of his mass to be more versatile in his selection of riles.

Made me think of you lol
 
All rest was 30 seconds today. Keeping the heartrate elevated and the muscles full of blood. Stamina is back full force at this point so I will be adding in my FST7 sets from now on. Carb up yday due to some lethargy and had a good bit of spill over, but today is a lower carb day so Ive actually been able to see the water come off during the day. (Crazy how this is so noticeable.) Body comp changes are starting to get more prevelant as well. Calves are growing and getting all kinds of vascular. Quads have grown quite a bit since the last pics as well. After the small weight setback im back on track and ready for them gains!

Great looking workout bud. Thosr short rest periods really bring about intensity IMO!

Alrighttyyu then.
 
Mr. Volume :)

Hey you convinced me to add a bit more volume and bam ... size came on pretty quick.
 
Everytime I think about moving to another workout protocol - you keep me doing FST 7 lol... nice looking workout Monte.
 
Monty, glad you are able to do some pressing again.

About that pee situation, I ordered some Blue Raspberry BCAA SAA, when I get it will you taste my pee to make sure it hasn't changed?
 
Ok apparently I don't know how to flex my quads......best I could do. I'm no Snags or Kleen but they are getting better.

Rest periods were short today besides Squats. These were 60 seconds and everything else was 30-45 seconds. I tried to hit my 20 rep widowmaker but fell short. Lower carbs has me flat and a bit less energy but the fat is starting to subside so everything is going well!

Nice work! As far as flexing your legs bring your heals closer like less than 6 inches apart, I keep mine just a couple inches apart at the hell. Point your toes out about 45 degrees to each side making a V with your feet. Unlock your knees just barely, roll your hips back a little then try to push the floor apart with your feet. You can also lock your knees and just squeeze but if you can just bend them like a very tiny bit like maybe an inch, your adductors will pop giving added thickness on the inner thigh.
