Update: 20 June 2019
Weight: 208.6 lbs (fasted)
A slight weight increase of 0.8 lbs. This could be a normal fluctuation or related to the very bad night of sleep I had. I suspect it to be the latter considering my weight went down every night I slept well. Not particularly concerned here as I visually seem to be improving. Depending on how I weigh in tomorrow I will likely revert back to my normal meal plan.
Nonetheless, I proceeded with a "high day" of eating with a little variation from last week. Namely, I replaced Meal 3 with a beef based meal and added egg to it and Meal 1. Beef plus egg (whole) is like anabolic nutrition overdrive so I am a big advocate of that combination - potato being the preferred method of carbohydrates. For my off day this Saturday I will repeat the Depletion Day plan.
Meal 1 (9:00am):
7oz Beef (96%), 1 x Whole Egg, 100g Baby Bella Mushrooms, 12oz Potato, 1.5 tsp. Pink Salt

Pre-workout: Assault Team 1 scoop, Swole Patrol 4 caps, Special Forces 3 caps, Clen 20mcg
Intra-workout: 4oz Pure OJ, 15g BCAAs, 5g Creatine
Meal 2 (1:15pm):

Meal 3 (3:30pm):
7oz Beef (96%), 2 x Whole Egg, 150g Baby Bella Mushrooms, 8oz Potato, 1.5 tsp. Pink Salt

Workout: Legs (Squat focused)
Time: 75 minutes (warm ups and cardio included)
Song of the day: Long and Hard by Ferona Vei
The preworkout stack today was nasty as all hell so any exhaustion was nixed right in the ass. I sampled the Pink Lemonade flavor of Assault Team and it is bomb! Pretty sold on it so I think this will be the flavor of choice when it goes into production. Combined it with Special Forces (3 caps), Swole Patrol (4 caps), and Clen 20mcg.
Despite the lack of proper rest I managed to have a savage Squat session today. Lots of volume as well as an overall improvement from last week. Not to mention I didn't have any pain in my left knee
Belt is still a pain, but I wore it extra high and it helped some.
1) Squats (315): 7, 6, 6, 6, 4
2) Squats (225): 12, 11, 11, 9, 8
3) Leg Press (5 plates): 12, 10, 10, 9, 8 (Feet placed low and close for quad dominance.)
4) Leg Extensions (230): 11, 8, 7, 7, 5 (45 second rest)
5) Outer Thigh Machine (180): 13, 10, 8, 6, 5 (45 second rest)
6) Inner Thigh Machine (180): 10, 7, 5, 4, 4 (45 second rest)
7) Seated Uni Leg Curls (120): 15, 10, 8, 7, 6 (Sets completed consecutively, back to back until complete.)
Other Cardio:
- Post Meal 2: Extended walk = 1.25 mile
- Post Meal 3: Extended walk = 1.25 mile
- Post Meal 4: Walk around the block = 1/2 mile
Notes:
- The cystic pimple thing is going away pretty quickly. Kind of weird. Just came and went.
- BMs seem to be a little more regular. Likely due to increased food intake.
- As mentioned, I struggled to sleep last night. Hunger was exceptionally high. Having dreams about food now lol.
