      I look forward to training everyday now which is only a good sign. I have definitely noticed a difference (mentally) over the last week as the hormones are building up in my system. Today was push day and it felt good...

      Warm Up.
      Standing Barbell Shoulder Press... 1 working drop set with just 1 drop (2pps and 1pps).
      Machine Lateral Raise... 1 working set with 175lbs.
      Cable Lateral Raise (from behind my body)... 1 working set with 23kg for each arm.
      Incline Chest Press... 1 working drop set with just 1 drop (3pps and 2pps).
      Pec Deck (foam roller behind me)... 1 working set.
      Machine Press... 1 working set.
      Tri-Cep Dips... 1 working set with 4pps.
      Close Grip Bench Press... 1 working set.
      Cable Tri-cep Extensions (2 handles)... 1 working set.
      StairMaster for 15 mins (calf raises on my tiptoes for the duration).
      Stretches.

      All movements were slow and controlled with pauses at the bottom to prevent any momentum and keep the tension on the target muscle.

      Preworkout I had 2 sccops of Myoblox Loco Cinco XO. Intra was 6 scoops of Yamamoto Nutrition's Energan (40g HBCD's, 15g EAA's, 8g l-citrulline etc). Post workout I had 250g chicken breast, basmati rice (80g carbs) and a side salad with carrots, white cabbage, cherry tomatoes, mirador sauce (similar to light soy sauce), apple cider vinegar and lemon juice. I will start adding similar side salads to most of my meat and rice meals as they taste great and I am making sure I get more greens and vegetables into my diet.

      No slin today but definitely starting it tomorrow and it will be pull day and I look forward to it.

      Nice log brother. Good detail and info provided.

      Myoblox is a great brand. Love their pre workout.. have you tried Martian by them? It’s their green supplement. Got a lot of good stuff in it and actually tastes good. I do 1.5 scoops a day to get extra greens in.

      I haven't tried their Green's powder. The Loco preworkout is the first Myoblox product I have ever tried. It really stood out to me (very different) so I am sure I will try some of their other products in the future. Right now I am using Controlled Labs Orange Triad for a greens powder (contains alsorts of things). Paradise Herbs ORAC-Energy Greens is probably my favourite greens product but I have just ran out of it.

      A slight change of plan. I was looking at my insulin and realized I have some used novolin-r with an expiry date of 2017. I figured just start with that instead. It will still be gtg so I started that today. I will rotate insulin types as I go along so lantus and humalog will also be used over the subsequent months. I decided to dose 10iu novalin-r with 2iu Genotrope twice today. I will carry on with the same dosing over the next week and adjust if needed.

      Today was pull day and more of the same. I dosed the novolin-r about 2 hours pre workout. I have had more shakes today for convenience but also 2 meat and rice meals so far. After I post this I will have chicken, jasmine rice and a side salad. Intra today was 6 scoops of Yamamoto Nutrition's Energan (40g HBCD's, 15g EAA's, 8g l-citrulline etc) and an additional scoop of Axe & Sledge's Demoday (15g Carb10 and 11g HBCD's). I had planned to up intra carbs slightly and will be sticking with that amount (65g) for the foreseeable future. Today I also tried 1.5 scoops of OuttenFit Nutrition's Revive V2 preworkout and it was great. My workout included...

      Warm Up
      Reverse Pec Deck... 1 working drop set with just 1 drop.
      Machine Pullovers... 1 working set.
      Incline Bench DB Rows... 1 working set.
      Close Grip Pulldowns... 1 working set.
      Machine Rows (unilateral)... 1 working set for each side.
      Cable Shrugs... 1 working drop set with just 1 drop.
      Lower Back Extensions supersetted with Reverse Lower Back Extensions... 2 sets.
      Machine Curls (unilateral)... 1 working set for each side.
      DB Hammer Curls... 1 working set.
      Preacher DB Hammer Curls... 1 working set for each side.
      Stretches.

      So much to report. I never load my lower back but after those lower back extensions the other day it felt extra tight. I usually stop short of failure and never push it but did more that day and could feel the difference. I had a day off but when training legs the next day my lower back wouldn't have taken the planned stiff leg deadlifts so I adjusted my workout. I still pushed it to the max though...

      Abs for 10 mins.
      Calf Presses... 3 working sets.
      Calf Extensions... 1 working set with both feet then 1 working set with each leg separately.
      Unilateral Seated Leg Curls... 2 working sets (with negative reps) for each leg.
      Standing Leg Curls... 1 working set with partials for each leg.
      Leg Press... 2 working sets with 7pps. The 1st set was with wide feet and as low as possible (full rom) for 32 reps. After 1 min rest the 2nd set was with a close stance and a partial rom for 26 reps.
      Hip Adductor... 1 working set with negative reps.
      Leg Extensions... 2 working sets (drop weight for 2nd set) with no more than 30 secs rest between.
      Stretches.

      After the above workout I was destroyed and fell asleep even though I had taken a lot of pre workout. That will be due to the addition of hgh. Although I had only used 2iu twice then had a day off training (no hgh) and took 2iu pre workout so I hadn't even run it each day. I dosed it once that day due to falling asleep. Today I have dosed hgh/slin twice and plan to do the same tomorrow. I did fall asleep again today though but before the gym. I can tell already this hgh will be a struggle but I will push through.

      I have also started getting some acne on my face which is annoying. I am 2 shots (100mg) mast e in so far so it's probably due to the inclusion of that. Once levels stablize I will be fine. I only plan to run 200mg per week and will not change that as it's just to compliment my cycle and I have no need for high dosed mast when growing.

      Another thing I never mentioned is I do what Stan Efferding talks about a lot in regards to frequent walking. I done it anyway due to having my dog Flex but now I always walk him after I have eaten. I also try and get 3 walks in everyday after meals to improve digestion, appetite and insulin sensitivity. Most walks are 15 mins but 1 is usually longer. As it's freezing now it's not that long but when it's warmer 1 walk is always over 1 hour. In addition to that I now do cardio for 10-20 mins at the end of most training sessions as well.

      I have been having digestive problems and lot's of gas. Not a surprise from the increased food. But it seems the white cabbage I have been having a lot recently is the route to most of my problems. I am sure some of the powders I have had didn't help either. But I figured out a short list and after I had a side salad with carrot and white cabbage (tomatoes etc) I was really bad. I don't usually have an issue with the other ingredients and the white cabbage is new. I seem to be improving and I guess will have to leave it out in the future.

      I started today with an avocado, greek yoghurt and an EAA shake with my supplements. Then it was all pretty much chicken/beef with rice and vegetables. I have also had some fruit with all my meals as well. Been mainly having mandarins and kiwis. Post workout I had chicken with pasta. I had cooked too much pasta so basically waited about 1 hour then had another serving of pasta with a protein shake afterwards. I done that because I had taken my 2nd shot of novolin-r before my post workout meal so like to load up on carbs and protein whilst it is active.

      Today I was amped to train. I also added in 1 scoop of Chao's Crew's Stim Head and 1 scoop of Alpha Lion's Komodo Pump preworkout so I was fired up. I had all my movements planned out and simply tried to lift as heavy as possible.

      Warm Up.
      Machine Lateral Raises... 1 working set.
      Standing Cable Lateral Raises... 1 working set with each arm.
      Shoulder Press... 1 working set. I tried 3.5pps but only got 3 reps so quickly dropped to 3pps and got another 6 or 7 reps.
      Incline Bench Cable Flyes... 1 working set.
      Machine Press... 1 working set.
      DB Floor presses (hammer grip).
      Tri-Cep Dips... 1 working set with 4.5pps.
      Seated Overhead Extensions... 1 working set.
      Tri-cep Pushdowns... 1 working set.
      15 mins cardio (bike and s force performance trainer).
      Stretches.

      You will see I place my exercises in a certain order for various reasons. When doing PUSH day for example I like to blend the 3 main muscles (chest, shoulders and tri-ceps) together. Meaning today for example I ended shoulders with a high (or low) incline shoudler press so my chest is largely activated. Then the same for my last chest exercise which was a neutral/hammer grip floor press which brings the tri-ceps into play substantially.

      I just had to look up what the cardio piece is called (S-Force Performance Trainer). It's literally the hardest cardio equipment I have ever used. I have used it about 10 times now. The stairmaster is a walk in the park compared to it. You can use a shortened range of motion but I always use the full rom which is large so it's good for flexibility as well. Obviously cardio is only as hard as what effort you put in but after 1 min I am literally derstroyed on this and it's designed for less training time. I done 10 mins bike and 5 mins on this thing but usually do more.

      Yesterday I was in 2 minds if I should train. I left it but at 11:30pm I said fuck it and destroy legs and that is what I did I like training late as the gym is usually empty so I can go crazy. That was my thought especially due to it being leg day as I can make all the noise I want and no one is there to hear it. I really pushed it to the max for my working sets.

      It was also a milestone workout in many ways as I barbell squatted for the first time in years. Recently I have been adding in movements I don't usually do just to make things harder. Now I still won't perform certain movements as I know my lower back can't take it. But I figured try some squats and see how I am. It felt really weird at first. Obviously no heavy weight but even 20kg per side felt heavy at first but once I got my rhythm it was nothing. I still only went up to 30kg per side (80kg total) though. I done 30kg per side for 30 reps then dropped 10kg per side and done 15 paused reps then dropped another 10kg and done another 15 paused reps. Nothing to failure but those 3 sets felt good and I was destroyed after them as it was essentially a drop set of 60 reps. I could feel my lower back so I need to be careful but today I have been fine with no tightness etc. Moving forward I will stick to 30kg per side for high reps and just play about with paused reps and making the light weight feel as heavy as possible. I will see am I am over time and if my back is ok I will start adding weight to the bar very slowly. My leg workout looked like...

      Seated Calf Raises... 3 working sets (dropped weight each working set but performed more reps).
      Standing Calf Raises supersetted with Leg Press Calf Presses... 2 working sets.
      Lying Leg Curls... 1 working set with both legs. Then 2 working sets with my right and left leg separately. The 1st ended with negative reps and the 2nd ended with partial reps.
      DB Stiff Leg Deadlifts... 1 working set.
      Barbell Squats... no working sets (details posted above).
      Vertical Leg Press... 2 hard sets and 1 working set of 27 reps (brutal).
      Unilateral Leg Extensions... 1 working set with each leg. I done the full weight rack for 9 reps (right leg) and 10 reps (left leg).
      Stretches.
      No cardio unless you count the 20 min walk home.

      My legs have really improved recently. They are very long so it will always be a struggle but I am very happy with how things are going. Just going to keep grinding away and seeing where it takes me.

      I am aiming to get stronger in all movements but I think of things more in a gradual sense. So progressive overload is key but I don't try to beat my reps or weight every single workout (sometimes I do). That is a great way of doing things because if everything is in place you will always get stronger. However I find many just for the sake of constantly beating their number start letting form change. I don't mean bad form but just things like speeding up reps. So I don't go from workout to workout but will always try to be stronger in movements every few weeks.

      I do have some goal weights for certain movements/machines I use. If I had problems getting stronger then I will rotate movements. However I also don't use the same movements every workout and like to rotate things. I still have some core movements I always do and when possible I will get as strong as possible in those movements.

      Today was push day and it was another great workout. I wish I could have got updated pics done as I was super full and can see a big difference. My workout consisted of...

      Warm Up.
      High Incline Bench DB Lateral Raises... 1 working set.
      Machine Lateral Raises... 2 working sets (1 loading and 1 drop off).
      Machine Shoulder Press... 1 working set.
      Machine Vertical Butterfly... 1 working set.
      Incline Press... 1 working set.
      Flat Press... 2 working sets (1 loading and 1 drop off).
      Close Grip Bench Press... 2 working sets (1 loading and 1 drop off).
      Machine Seated Overhead Tri-cep Extension... 1 working set.
      Tri-cep Pushdowns... 1 working set.
      Stretches.
      Stairmaster for 20 mins (press down hard for every step).

      My preworkout today was Innovapharm MVPre2.0 and the pumps were incredible. I felt super full my entire workout. It contains some great pump ingredients including citrulline malate, glycerpump and s7. I also loaded up on fluids and electrolytes pre and intra workout which only helps matters. My intra was 6 scoops of Yamamoto Nutrition's Energan (40g HBCD's, 15g EAA's, 8g l-citrulline etc) with an extra 45g carbs (wms) added. I have some old bags of waxy maize starch I will go through. Not the best carb but it's cheap and I forgot I had them so will use them up. I also dosed 10iu novolin-r and 2iu hgh as well. I only dosed gh/slin once today and yesterday but will make sure I dose it twice next training day (should be tomorrow).

      I have lot's of LR3 on the way to me so I am going to trial it at a high dose to see how good it is. I will rotate dose timing and it will be coupled with some very high carb meals. Things are starting to take off now
