Truthornothin's Ursobolic Log The Whole Truth and Nothing But the Truth!

Souvlaki!!!

Best non keto Greek food- stuffed grape leaves! Love em. Nothing beats a huge Greek salad w grilled chicken from edge to edge of the bowl n lots of feta!
I second that emotion Greek salad with feta and kalamata olives Da' Bomb
 
Definitely noticing some leaning, but I just stopped my 8 weeks of erase so i am seeing the water return to normal levels :( which is prob skewing my overall judgement of the urso.. Certain lifts are up, others r still maintaining strength.. But things I have not been able to do before I am doing, example Inc db presses usually could only max out 2 reps w 65s (this is after pyramiding down, pre lift cardio, and other chest exercises lol) but wed I got 65 for 6.. Which was cool.. Pullovers I'm up to 80s for 6! Which 70-75 was pr a month ago. Also on ebol haha sooooo but I know how ecdy products affect me.

Edit: also - don't mean to be gross, but have u, truth, or anyone, notices changes in bowel movements?? Feels like I'm going less despite eating more... And it hasn't been solid haha.. Sorry guys but gotta ask! It's all part of life ay? Just makes
No sense! Thinking could be bc more utilization of food= less waste products..

K thanks lol
Yeah a little looser, not sure if Ursobolic is the cause better that than backed up lol
 
Got my Ursobolic in the mail and adding it to my stack. Taking first three caps in a few minutes..SJ

Hey truth, things are looking real good..
 
Good observation guys, nice to take note of it.

I wonder what it could be? hmmm

Hey if you talk agout the input you gotta talk about the out put lol, Speaking of input, I had to got to three different grocery stores to find some suitable ahi for my Poke' I Stirred it up and am letting the flavors meld in the fridge for about 30 minutes ....God I CANNOT WAIT!!! I love raw fish. I make sushi too, this is a lot easier. I will be making sushi this week for my daughter she likes mine best :) It will a be a week of cheating and no working out, gonna put Ursobolic to the test :thumbsup:

Thanks Bro, will be subscribing to your thread. Make sure to take it with a meal containing fat. I just take it with a tablespoon of olive oil so there is no question I have enough. Good luck on your run

In reality I loathe my weeks off, it'll be good with my daughter here, so my mind want be on it. I always feel like I am shrinking even on day one....though the fact of the matter is I usually come back stronger and bigger than when I took off. You don't grow during training you grow while resting but if I could train 8 hrs a day I would. Its the best part of my day
 
Hey Matt Look, Poke'!!!! Its good too!!

Oh man. I loathe them too .. The most I can tolerate is two days in a row.. Except my fear is getting fat and soft.. And Losing that hard full feeling... Definitely need rest To grow tho.. I loft Monday, we'd, thrs, fri.. Cardio too. Tues sat n sunday are rest. That tailored down from years of 6/7 days a week so I'm beat up at 23.. On top of whatever long term damage I did from anorexia... So 4 days a week even hurts! Looking forward but def bervous for a week layoff!

Will prob need moral support lol

Yes it looks pretty legit to me.

Shoyu poke :)


We have many versions with various seaweeds on it. But that's the basic there. And it's not really about presentation. As long as it tastes good. That's all that matters! :)

Enjoy!

Would you believe they had the Poke Stop , on tonight...what a coincidence eh? It was cosmic confirmation that making poke was the right thing to do lol. The seaweed in this was purple I believe it was called Ogo? Anyway my first poke experience was good, found a buch of recipes on line I will be having this weekly. Especially when I go low carb after the holidays. Low carb does not have to be low flavor

Day 37

Day 37

Took 3 caps 3 times over the course of the day

Nutrition:

Breakfast:

6Whole eggs scrambled
8 ozV-8

Mid Morning:

50 Grams Whey Protein
43 grams peanuts


Afternoon:
50 grams whey protein
1/4 cup natty peanut butter


Pre workout/ intra workout:

1 Serving Purple Wrath

Post Work out:
50 grams whey
30 grams oat starch

Dinner:
240 grams Ahi Tuna
3 teaspoons sesame oil
30 grams green onion
30 grams grilled pepper and onions


Snack:
1/2 cup Natty Peanut Butter(over did it but hey its leg day
20 grams almonds

Pre Bed:
1 cup fiber one and 1 cup whole milk

Work Out:

Legs:
High rep Squats warmed up with 135 x 20, then 225 x 20 x 5, 275 x 12 x 1 315 x 8 x 2
Then I got really crazy and did suicides on 225 did not count reps did five sets of as many reps as I could do when to the restroom and yakked :) good squat routine

Lunges: 135 x 15 x 6 yakked again only 60 seconds between sets

Leg extensions 150 4 sets of 20

Standing leg curls: 90 per leg x 15 x 4

Standing calve raises cannot walk, legs burning from every direction, still queasy cramping like mad the whole way home, good thing I drive an automatic

Observations: Was strong today,this was supposed to be my light leg day. I left out the leg press, (some tool tied it up for over thirty minutes ) I was just going to do light squats, 315 is light for lots of folks, my legs are long, its a chore. I was supposed to be done after my last set of 315, but for some reason when I dropped down to 225 I felt inspired to do another set of twenty and didn't quite get it, so I punished my self with another and another and another, until I felt queasy and had to excuse my self. My legs were toast, I did lunges slow and controlled glutes and legs were totally destroyed at this point but I pushed on. It was not a light workout ....oh well maybe next time. The Ursobolic is still doing the job and am still lean and my GF swears my shoulders are better. more capped, I have been concentrating on them the last couple weeks. One thing that I have noticed with the Ursobolic is that when I concentrate on a body part it responds immediately. Upper chest and shoulders came up within two work outs. Tomorrow my day off.

Today I probably over did it, I don't always do so much. But today the mood struck me. I hate squats but I love them all the same. I need to feel a certain way before I feel like a did a good workout, and no that way is not nauseous ... but it generally means I worked out hard enough perhaps too hard. I've seen your ab routine and I do believe you are over training it that area....hey I offered you the Truth about Abs....but ....you didn't want to hear the Truth lol. Here's what I've learned in my 20 plus years(actually its 30 but that just makes me sound too F'ing old lol) Its that it not the number of the sets you do its the intensity of the sets that you do. When I run my workout into the 1.5 hr plus mark its generally because I didn't do my sets intensely enough or I'd not have enough energy to stay that long. I try to shoot for about 4-6 sets per exercise(warm ups not included) no more than a minute between sets, and Balls to the Walls during sets. Both my GF, and my friend and sometimes training partner kickyouasschik will both testify that the Truth does not do half assed sets, hell I don't do half assed reps, slow controlled and with good form. No momentum at all. I am not an olympic lifter, momentum is useless to a body builder. You want constant or increasing resistance throughout your set. Post up your routine, I'll critique you but you prolly won't like it lol. But then we are all different what works for me may not work for you ....but I am betting if you gave the Truth's ways a try you will get results. Just my two cents
 
Omfg your volume is ridiculous!!

I need to do more volume. Lol.
Maybe....Maybe not......I need more poke, I ate a whole pound tonight, Yum Truth like .....a lot

Wow! That is an incredible amount of volume. You could cut that in half and that would be on the high side. Weightlifting can be almost drug like, with its endorphin release. It can be addictive and like anything in life you can have too much of a good thing. I speak from experience as I was doing a similar amount of volume two years ago, 6 days a week when I tore my left bicep completely off the bone. Granted I am exactly twice your age, so your powers of recuperation are probably much greater than mine. I actually am going to have to cut back a bit on mine. But I will stick to my 2 days on 1 day off schedule, sometime I will go three days but never more than that with out a day off. I think if you back off the volume a bit you will see your gains increase. Just my opinion

What he said, my inspiration
 
Well the plan was for this routine to be less volume, bit then my first draft I felt o wasn't hitting the muscles from every angle... So ratherthan sticking with compound movements, I threw in the iso stuff and u have a 2 hour work out! That's with supersets an minute rest. I do NOT bullsh!t or waste time in the gym..

Not saying at all that you do. Just that that is an incredible amount of volume. I try to keep it to 1-2 multijoint exercises and 1-2 isolation exercises per body part. I shoot for a max of 1hr to 1.5 hours at most. cortisol kicks in after an hour and it becomes self defeating the more you go past that.

Right. Well 40-45 of cRdio plus hour to 1.5 for lifting+abs.. So total is upwards of 2-2.5 but it's not all lifting. It is a lot, but it's not like im doing 10 sets of bench and wondering why my chest is like jello, which it isn't lol. I guess I just wish i could be content with less volume.. Dunno til u try right? I wanna do some phat and dc starting in Jan, so.. Almost there! Lol my recovery is ok, I'm actually NOT sore from that routine. Only thing ever sore is honestly my legs.. I miss that tightness of growing/repairing... The ebol I'm takin should really be cuttin down my recovery , as was the anabeta during October. And the urso of course
 
I HAVE taken some of ur advice and lessened the reps an increased te weight and time under tension for abs.. Definitely feeling the burn more, really getting that
Mind muscle connection .. Just did my Saturday AB routine and getting ready to go feed into Americas obesity epidemic at the restjsrsnt I wait tables at.. Ppl make me sick yet I find myself jealous of their inhibitions.. Life must be easywheb u don't have to wrry about workouts and supps and what u eat.in fact we Both know it is

I can show you how to get sore every work out if you like, even with less volume. For the record volume is something I have to constantly monitor or else I find my own climbing and climbing. My training is loosely based on the Positions of Flexion method, the parts of it I do not follow are because of injury, I grew very fast on this program and from a minimal of work. Originally I read about this in Ironman , the following blurb is from BB.com do not hold it against me lol.


[TD="width: 485"] Natural lifters simply cannot do 20 sets per body part, train for 2hrs and everyday. It is just not possible. So what's a natural lifter to do? Here is the famous POF system!



Invalid Link Removed Invalid Link Removed Natural lifters simply cannot do 20 sets per body part, train for 2hrs and everyday. It is just not possible. So what's a natural lifter to do? Well experts worldwide, and when I say 'experts' I mean real experts not people who think they are, I mean people who make livings off being so good at what they do and people who have actually changed the iron game such as Will Brink , Charles Poliquin and the late Dan Duchane, suggest the routines found in Ironman magazine are the best for natural lifters and the most common of these are based around Positions of flexion. What is POF?
Well I have discussed this in previous articles but I'll go over it briefly again. POF was created by Steve Holman, Editor of Ironman. As a skinny hard gainer he was looking for the fastest way to grow. What he discovered was a myotatic reflex where as a muscle is stretched it then engages more muscle fibers than usual. Exactly what we need to do.
Therefore a POF routine has 3 positions which can be achieved in 2-3 movements for each body part. Midrange Position- You're regular compound movements, the real mass builders.
Stretch Position- The muscle is stretched e.g. incline dumbbell curls.
Contracted Position- e.g. Concentration Curls.
The Routine
There are many ways to set up your POF routine I have included my current one which is producing great gains. It is modified slightly and I will explain as I go. No. of days per week: The ideal way to do this routine is every second day. So a two week split would look like this:
Mon: Workout A
Tues: Rest
Wed: B
Thurs: Rest
Fri:A
Sat: Rest
Sun: B
Mon: Rest
Tues: A
Wed: Rest
Thurs: B
Fri:Rest
Sat: A
Sun: Rest
And on and on....
However my gym is closed of Sunday so this kind of split is out for me. I train as follows:
Sun: Rest
Mon: Rest
Tues: A
Wed: B
Thurs: Rest
Fri:A
Sat: B
Why only 2 sets?
Well the way it is explained is. Lets assume there are 100 fibers in the muscle you work. (Now really there are millions this is just so the numbers can be demonstrated.) During your first rep say you use 20 fibers, the next 27, the next 32 and so on. Then you fail at say 10 reps and have used 63 fibers out of 100. You do another set and it uses some of the 37 unused so at the end of that set you have used a total of 80 fibers. Now the problem is you probably won't use those other 20 no matter how many sets you do and this is why the 2 sets are optimal for size. I don't know how this stand up physiologically but it sound good all the same.
The workout themselves.
I will list mine, explain modifications and some alternate exercises for equipment some gyms may not have. I won't list warm-ups but 1 or 2 sets before each body part will do.(Note about warming up. I never stretch. And touch wood have never been injured. I find if I do stretch I do tend to get pains in my shoulders so I don't, simple. Also being 'stiffer' allows you to lift more weight than if you are loose.
Workout A:
Quads:
Squats 2x8-12
Sissy Squats 1x10

Pullover machine 2x8-12
(NOTE: you should do regular pullovers between the two however I fell the hit my chest a lot which I worked the day before and it hurts quite a bit. Substitutes to pullover machine: stiff arm pulldowns or under grip chins)
Midback:
Behind neck pulldowns: 2x8-12
Bent over rows: 2x8-12
Cable row: 1x8-12

There you go. Each workout should take no more than 1 hour, maybe 1 hour 5 mins if you are a little slow. Buy an Ironman and get some of the great books written about POF or check out Invalid Link Removed and search for your free copy of the 10 week size surge program which has helped some gain 20lbs in 10 weeks. Until next time,

It is but we've both been heavy and that comes with its own set of problems and worries I prefer our worries to theirs don't you?
 
Just speed read, getting ready for work, will go thru In depth later tonight but looks and sounds awesome. Hits the muscles every angle and 3x week.. Thanks bro

Work Out Day off:

Tired today, didn't get half the things accomplished that I wanted to. Oh well that it life. Injuries are nagging and achy today. Sorry no more to report. tomorrow is another day. I don't think I've not been getting enough sleep. Hope everyone has a good Saturday night, I have to be up at 5:30 am for work so I am out.
 
ive always been a high volume trainer for many yrs, just prefer that way of training workouts are different each week for every bodypart always change it up to keep body guessing, workouts are 70-80mins max, i know that after 60mins or less it can be detremental as cortisol is released and to keep on training and training can be counterproductive to strength gains, recovery, overtraining, burning out cns system, and reduction of vital hormones all as a result of training to long/overtraining, thats why i keep workouts to approx 70-80mins, i used to train for 1.5-2hrs yrs ago, i just like training and enjoy the feeling and its not possible for me to stop and leave the gym at the 50-60min mark.
for me always training with a higher volume approach works its always gave me much better muscle development and quality vs the 2-4 working sets and so many excercises then stop, that doesnt work so well for me its better for strength but mo not so good for asthetics, i think when you train you cannot follow a set routine set in stone with so many sets and reps per excercise and so many excercises then stop thats enuff, the body doesnt work like that it knows when its had enough in the gym and you know if you have or have not done enuff in a workout and you can say "im done" working to a routine on alot of occasions for most i feel they are undertraining/ doing themselves a disfavour.
higher and high voulume training is harder on the body and its recovery abilities and the cns hormones etc and i think only few people do and maybe can get away with this yr in and yr out style of training and make gains not just ur average gym goer with average genetics and body type, i know that if i reduced volume/intensity that i would get stronger as less is more on the strength goal, but to me thats never been priority its bigger looking more impressive asthetic looking muscles obv in proportion tho strength is secondary to me.
This is all coming from a religious high volume instinctive trainer as my chosen style to train rightly or wrongly, but to me the most part it is right, as it just feels better, more suited and right for me.
higher volume=harder to get gains
less/moderate volume=better strength gains but in mo not as good physique maker (considering the individual

just my 2 cents sorry for the rant just its right up my street with the coversation of high volume
even from myself i think chedapalooza does way to much volume from what it appears.

Purple Wraath

Testforce 2
AMP(Not everday and only if I've been up too late to get me through work it does and admirable job at that)

COP by Prototype nutrition
Yep I take these every day. Currently out of White flood, Substituting Clearshot, it provides incredible energy, but I miss the pumps and vaso dilation of white flood. I added Urso to the established stack Seeing it all writtend down Damn! I spend too much money on sups. As you will see the majority is Health related not Body building specific.

I have been staying up too late, have to be up at 5:30 am and here it is midnight practically. My work out was strong even if one side and my strength is up in the uninjured parts. Ursobolic seems anabolic to me got strength increases and stamina increases. Still loving it.
 
Day one of my week off from them gym, This SUX!!!
