Welcome bud. Thanks for joining in.



Day 47

I had one of the most intense leg workouts I've had in a while this morning. Volume was up, intensity techniques were up, and I felt like I was going to throw up about halfway through (thankfully I didn't).

The workout was fasted with 2 scoops of Core ABC, both pre and post. I had some time before my fast was over when I finished, so I waited until I got home to eat. There's no way I could've handled a shake regardless. Once the nausea subsided, I was starving, and had one of the most satisfying meals ever lol.

I'll post today's workout later.

Sounds like a workout from hell..... beauties!!!!!
 
Day 47 continued


I weighed-in at 218.4lbs (+4.4lbs from day 1) this morning. I was a little surprised by the increase, but the day off could've had me holding some water. Regardless of the added weight, my appearance looks to be tightening up a little.



Supplementation


VERSA-1: 1 cap pre workout


Compound 20: 2 caps pre workout, 2 caps 7 hours later


Forskolin-95: 1 cap when I woke up, 1 cap pre workout, 1 cap post workout, 1 cap pre bed (100mg total)


Jack3d micro: 2 scoops pre workout


ALCAR-500: 2g pre workout


Core ABC: 2 scoops pre and post workout


Agmatine 500: 2 caps before a high carb meal


AP: 1 cap pre workout, 2 caps before post workout meal


-I ran out of MBCAA, Core ABC, and Protocol all within the last 2 days. Not the best time considering I just started working out towards the end of a 16 hour fast. I ordered some Modern BCAA+ and have a few scoops of I-BCAA Max that will hopefully get me through a couple workouts. AP and Agmatine500 are running low as well, but I ordered more AP and have SS Agmatine.



My workout was very challenging. The volume and intensity were both high, which literally had me close to collapsing towards the end.


Standing Leg Curl
2 warm-up x20
50x15
60x12
70x8
25x30

-Hadn't done these in years. Awesome pump.


Leg Press (3sec negative/no lockout)
2 warm-up x8-10
630x12
720x10
720x10

-The slow negatives with constant tension set my legs on fire.

-I recorded a video of these, but can't get it to upload for some unknown reason. I spent the last hour trying :cussing:



Smith Squat (set 1: ATG, sets 2-4: 1.5 technique)
225x15 (20lbs bar resistance) more of a warm-up
225x8
225x8
225x8

-Hack squat was busy, so I jumped into these. It was nice to have a little more power.

-3 sets of 1.5 was brutal


Stretching
1min per quad


Hack Squat (no lockout/2sec pause in hole)
1 warm-up x8
270x8
270x8
270x8

-270 was plenty heavy at this point.


Stretching
1min per quad


Ham Killers
8
8
7

-I found out quickly how these got their name.

Example
[video=youtube_share;K0o-3Ii3Blc]http://youtu.be/K0o-3Ii3Blc[/video]




HS Lunges (foot on back bar)
50x10
70x8

Example
[video=youtube_share;HsNs8nqpaFY]http://youtu.be/HsNs8nqpaFY[/video]




Shoulder workout in the morning.

Breezy's on the game and he stepped it up a notch, if that's "humanely possible"

Sick sick workout !!!

Goods stuff and ton of details as always !

Haha thanks fu. I'm feeling the impact this morning. DOMS actually started setting in last night (particularly in my glutes :) ). I'm still walking at this point, but we'll see how it progresses.

People haven't approached me, but there were a couple pointing at me during the ham killers yesterday lol.
 
Nice job! Almost made me want to throw up reading it lol.

Have you ever done one legged leg press in that fashion. It wrecks you!!! The besides the unilateral benefit you also can be lazy and only have to stack the machine with half the weight. Haha but it kills the quads!!

Lol thanks man.

I haven't in a long time, but maybe I'll add it in next week. Haha I'm not a fan of loading/unloading all those plates either.
 
You ever done Glute Ham Raises? I know most gyms don't have the actual machine so those Ham Killers are a variation I had to use for awhile until I gained access to a GHR. I also hadn't seen those split squats in that machine before...seems like a great idea I may have to try. :cool:

Yeah, I haven't recently though. My gym actually does have a GHR machine, but I felt the Ham Killers had a little more impact. I'll use the machine next week for a better comparison. I loved the split squats and hadn't see that either until yesterday. It was a great way to finish off my legs at the end of the workout.
 
Day 48 yesterday


I'm having a pretty busy weekend and am running a little behind with updates. Here's yesterday's workout.


All supplementation was the same as the day prior except I-BCAA Max was used pre workout (fasted) and there were no BCAA's post (I ran out).



BB Incline Bench (ROM: 2-3 inches from chest/no lockout)
2 warm-up x8
185x8
205x8
215x8
225x8


DB Swings
35x35

Over and Backs
95x12
105x12
115x10


High Pulley Rear Delt Fly (2sec pause/squeeze in contracted position)
20x25
20x18
30x8, drop 10x12


6 ways
10x12
15x10
15x8





Day 49


Today's an off day from the gym.

I weighed 217lbs (+3lbs from day 1) this morning. I don't believe I've added any fat and may have lost a little.

I think I'm going to move more towards a recomp in a couple weeks (with X-Factor/friends, Anabeta, AP, and PowerFull) and slowly transition into a cut for a couple months. I'm just typing as I think about what supps I have haha. My cutting phase will probably include some of the following: V-1, Test Powder, AB/ABE, Endosurge, Erase/EP, Alphamine, C20, and AP. I haven't even begun to think about exactly how I'll use them and could easily make some supplement changes as well. As of now, the plan is just to get shredded.


Here's a snack from earlier today. It's another variation of the wraps I've been eating a lot lately.

Invalid Link Removed

ground beef (grass fed), chicken breast, jasmine rice, peppers/onions, brown rice wrap



Back workout tomorrow.
 
I've been rocking the brown rice wraps as well. I put like 6 or 8 oz's of grilled chicken (George foreman style lol) and 1/4 reduced fat cheese and poppin it in the microwave for like 30 seconds. Ill throw some green and red peppers in there too. Bomb lol

Heck yeah. I'm averaging 2 a day lol. They don't have the best pliability, but if I throw them in the microwave for 20sec they hold up pretty well. Rubbing a little bit of water on them first helps too.
 
Since I know you were interested I'd just thought I'd pop in with input on my BR Micro sample. I know you already enjoy it but the flavor was very well done IMO. Idk what it is with Blue Razz supps but at least with this one it tastes "blue". Makes no sense but I enjoyed it. :p

Definitely one of the best Blue Razzs I have tried...the sample plus V-1 produced an awesome workout.

I haven't tried the water. Ill give it a shot. I couldn't believe how pricey they are though. Almost a buck a piece here!

Thanks for the feedback bolt. Haha I know what you mean by "blue". It makes me think of the OG blue razz Gatorade. I'm going to grab a tub soon (and hopefully Enhanced in the next few days).

Awesome. I saw Ben post that the BR Test Powder was really good as well. I'm loving the V-1/micro workouts; actually more than with Craze.

I just started doing it a couple days ago after I went to take a bite and it split down the middle haha. Problem solved.

Wow. I pay $2.99 for a pack of 6 from Trader Joes.

Yeah they're 4.99 before tax for 6 here. We need a trader joes lol. I'm really enjoying the gluten free food so far. I'm not completely gluten free just substituted my wraps and cinnamon raisen bread.

Yeah, they have good prices and a lot of good food. Thankfully there's no tax on (most) grocery items in MA.

I'm enjoying it as well. I haven't really had to take any food out of my diet either. I can still eat pancakes and waffles too.
 
I'm gonna have to try those waffles lol I'm always to scared to buy them

Haha I like to use them for some of my post workout carbs. I've been waffle and pancake free for a few days and need to grab more lol.
 
I wrap mine like a taco

Are you guys wrapping these or eating them more like a pizza... Look and sound awesome

Most of the time I eat some with a fork before wrapping because I load them up too much.

I do a full wrap job or taco style depending on what I put in it and how flexible the wrap is that day. I've been making "omelette tacos" lately which are awesome. The shape is perfect for the taco approach and doesn't spill out at all. I had one post workout today.
 
Yo Breezy EliteFTS is having a huge sale the next couple days. Mt Dog Band Pack is $55 before shipping right now (a steal..). Free shipping with orders over $100 so if you are trying to spend more let me know because there is a ton of extra stuff I can recommend to push you over that amount. ;)

Thanks for the heads up bolt. I'll check it out later tonight or tomorrow. I was trying not to buy anything gym related this week (unless Enhanced was released), but I'll probably have to make an exception :). I'll let you know if I'm going for free shipping as well.

You're killing me lol. I've been out for a few days and will have to stop and grab some after the gym. Blueberry jam or PB sounds great too...I might "stack" them.
 
I'm experimenting with a completely gluten free diet for the next several weeks. My diet doesn't usually contain a lot of it anyways but I was bored so figured I'd switch things up. :p

Going to be hitting Trader Joes a lot more and my meals are going to look a lot like yours. :o

Nice. It's definitely worth a shot to see how you react, if at all. The only thing I've been missing is XF UP 2.0 (I had a ton of it when I lost power though). I was upset when I checked the label. I don't think keeping that as your only gluten source would be that bad either.


If your hitting up Trader Joes you might want to check out their list of gluten free stuff. They have a PDF of everything. It's sounds like your meals are going to be delicious ;)
 
Ya I already went and got that PDF...I gotta plan out my shopping. It is really just an experiment and like I said most of the time I don't eat stuff with gluten except when I treat myself to something. With the new Butterscotch UP tho I may be regretting this decision. :eek:
 
Yeah, I've been wanting to try that. At least I don't know what I'm missing (I'm sure it's amazing though).

Yeah, I've had great results with the entire line. I'd highly recommend taking advantage of the Insider deal. I got to try Enhanced and it was awesome. It should go well with Versa-1 in your PCT as well. I believe it also contains V-1's 2 ingredients at a different dose (there's a thread about it somewhere on here).

Ill probably pick some up. I have some Muscle Marinade that Ill be logging so I cant really add it in to PCT unless I start 2 a day workouts but I think my physique is good enough for 10 weeks out where I wont have to go to 2 a days yet

Good to hear you're on track for the show. I'll be sure to check out the log. It'll probably be a great deal either way. They usually include a few other products for practically nothing.

Ya man I got fat as F#CK over the holidays so Im glad that things are progressing as quickly as they are
 
Day 51

Thought I'd mention that I've been feeling fantastic lately. My daily energy and mood have been up the last couple weeks (started improving after I got over infection) and it's been consistently great. I felt similar during my beta run with V-1, so I think it probably has something to do with it. I can't be sure, but perhaps the Forskolin also has a part in this. My solid workouts have been adding to how I feel as well.

My back is sore, but it's not too bad at all. It doesn't seem like DOMS will be increasing at this point.



Supplementation


VERSA-1: 1 cap pre workout


Compound 20: 2 pre workout, 2 caps 7 hours later


Forskolin-95: 1 cap morning (immediately after waking up), 1 cap pre workout, 1 post workout, 1 cap pre bed (100mg total)

ALCAR-500: 2g pre workout


Agmatine 500: 1 cap pre workout, 2 caps before post workout meal



Awesome workout today. I was very happy with the way everything went from start to finish. Strength/endurance were noticeably improved and my focus was at a high level as well. Being the end of phase 2; I had the volume and intensity cranked up.

90x8
100x8

-not sure on the weight used, but increased it each set

supersets
Pec Minor Dips
BWx 18
BWx15
Stretch Push Ups

I'll probably get a workout in tomorrow morning. I'm feeling really good and can't wait to get back to work (in the gym).
