No workout today. Well, I am currently doing some abs at home, but no gym time. I did go fishing though & I was completely soaked with sweat when I left! Was a nice rain & breeze, but the sun came out & it got super humid! Had a good time with my woman twice today & the second time was kind of weird because the andarine vision sides kicked in... right in the middle of it! Lol I was looking around like "uhh...". Nothing to much though. Just a little yellowish-green tint. Still see everything clearly, just a little color difference. Diet wasn't the best today, but I still plan on posting it shortly.
Gotta live brotha I'm glad to hear your day was good!!

You are absolutely right about that bro. Thanks & I hope you have a great Sunday.

My gf likes some good Mexican as much as I do, so we took a little trip to my favorite spot. She hadn't been there before. It was awesome! I burned quite a few calories today I'm sure, but I made up with it with this meal. Tortilla wasn't fried & it was steak, so I had some good protein & it could have been a worse cheat meal. Still had that fat feeling though after eating it, so a couple hours later I worked some abs!

Abs

Leg raise crunches: 4 sets of 25

Super set with

Twisting crunches: 4 sets until failure

Ab wheel: 3 sets of 15, all angles

Meals

Meal 1: whey & powdered peanut butter protein shake

Meal 2: 1/2 lb beef burger with lettuce, tomato & onion

Meal 3: birthday cake flavored protein bar ( 2nd best protein bar I have ever had!)

Meal 4: powdered peanut butter shake

Meal 5: large steak burrito with red, verde & cheese sauces

Meal 6: eggs with jalapenos & 1 piece wheat toast

Going to barbecue tomorrow. I plan on having chicken breats, lean burger & some pork. Most of the carbs I have been consuming lately, have been wheat toast, wheat tortillas & probably a few more potaotes than I should have had. Still keeping carbs lower than normal though. Feeling good lately.

I had another crap meal today, but the others were not to bad. My woman didn't have her kiddos this weekend, so we were going out quite a bit to eat & all that. Although, from tonight on through the remainder of this contest, I will be buckling down & getting strict with my diet. Win or loose, I want to finish strong. I will also be on vacation later this summer, so I would like to lean down some more for that too.

Back

Cardio: 12 mins incline walk at 3 mph, 12 mins elliptical

Machine lat pulldown: 1 set of 15

Super set with

Machine row: 1 set of 15

Pull-ups: 3 sets of 20 with 2 sets being neutral grip & 1 set of wide overhand grip

Tbar row: 3 sets of 2 plates × 15, 3 plates × 12, 4 plates × 8

Cable lat pulldowns: 3 sets of 12, 10, 8 with last set using whole stack. The other gym I go to occasionally has a cable lat pulldown that I can only do 4 or 5 with whole stack.

Machine row: 5 sets of 12, 10, 10, 8, 8 with drop set of 10 reps on last set

I had a guy in there asking me how I can do that many pull-ups at my size & I simply told him... "do lots of pull-ups!". Yeah, you can build an upper back & lats with other movements, but nothing will help you get better at pull-ups than doing as many as you can a couple times a week. Just my opinion.

I ate shitty all weekends but today no appetite.... so ate what I could.

Woman having cramps and wore it out so prolly will be a bit on that cardio too.
Never know she wakes up.... in morning most of time is her time...

But I changed somethings and new cut blend. Could be tren stronger or anavar switch from winny.

The diet is easy to slip up on for sure. I didn't have time to barbecue today like I planned, so I guess I'll be throwing some stuff in the oven.

Legs

Cardio: 20 mins stair machine. Longest I've done the stairs. My wind is getting better & I might attempt a half hour on the stiars, some time soon. I don't usully do stairs on leg day, but I decided my cardio is more important than hitting my goal on squat.

Barbell squat: 8 sets of 135 × 10, 225 × 5, 275 × 5, 315 × 5, 365 × 3, 405 × 3, 405 × 1, 315 × 10 my lower back was on fire this morning. Probably from last nights back workout.

Single leg, leg press: 4 sets of 10

Seated leg extentions: 3 sets of 15, 10, 10

Seated leg curls: 5 sets of 15, 12, 10, 10, 10 drop set last set for 8 more reps

Super set with

Standing calf raise machine: 4 sets of 15, 12, 12, 10 drop set last set for 8 more reps

Finished off the leftovers we had from going out this weekend after my workout, so there's no more garbage in my fridge now.

Meal 1: whey & powdered peanut butter shake

Meal 2: 2 large slices of meat pizza & cottage cheese post workout

Meal 3: 1 jumbo egg, 1/2 cup of egg whites, 1 small chicken breast & a few crackers

Meal 4: 1/2 lb of taco meat with one wheat tortilla & small amount of sour cream

Meal 5: whey protein shake

Meal 6: 1/2 burger no bun & half a serving of noodles

Started taking taurine today. Realized I was getting some back pumps today during squats. It is already helping. I don't think it's common, but I'm pretty sure it's the andarine. Lgd did the same thing. I just get back pumps often with most orals. I am pretty sure I will be working arms tomorrow. I also plan on doing a few sets of abs as soon as I post this.

One started taurine as well. Absolutely right about the LGD. At about day 12-15 I noticed that I was getting low back pumps. This always concerns me because I have chronic low back pain from 16 years as a paramedic. The taurine helps but I have to take at least 1000 mg a day.

Yeah, those lower back pains can really throw a wrench in your daily routine. I'm not sure how much taurine I take honestly. I take a pill or 2 plus what's in my protein. I definitely got worse back pumps with the LGD.

Yeah. When I’m out in the field working I’m constantly moving so it’s not to bad but the last 2 weeks I’ve been stuck in the office behind the desk and sitting most of the day it just kills me.

I looked & it looks like I am taking between 700-800 mgs of taurine. Good to hear it's helping. I hear ya about work. That's where it gets me too. That & leg day.

Super set with

Ez bar skullcrushers: 4 sets of 70 × 20, 80 × 15, 90 × 12, 100 × 10

Single arm preacher curl machine: 4 sets all sets done twice 10 × 5 on all sets

Super set with

I usually do with arms. I am actually going to hit the weights with much more intensity than I have been & if it shortens my workout or does less sets, I could care less. I am making each set challenging & brutal for the next couple weeks. I need to shock my muscles & train a little different. That should do the trick.

I've been hitting my abs quite a bit lately at night. About eod. Going to hit them shortly actually. I feel like it's bulging out my abs though, but they're getting in pretty good shape, so I'm not stopping.

Gear update

Test prop: 200 mg eod

Andarine: 70 mg ed

Clen: 40 mcg ed (inj. kind)

Adex: .5 mg eod or less

Will start the clen tomorrow. With having 10 days left & not being as low in bf as I want to be, I figure it is time to get started on it. This clen is really good!

Sups

Multi-vitamin: ed

Taurine: ed

Pre-workout: obviously know when this go's..

Whey protein

Digestive enzymes: a couple times a day
