Since protein/oat shakes are a large part of my diet, here is the break down on what I drink: (2 scoops Syntha-6 EDGE, 2 servings oats, 2 grams MCT oil, 2 grams fish oil) - 660 calories per shake.
- 58 grams protein
- 66 grams carbs
- 18 grams fat

Happy Friday, BOP friends!
Today I’m driving out of state to go to my grandma’s 99th birthday party. I can’t eat the food my family eats. My blood pressure would sky rocket. So, today is going to be all protein/oat shakes with fish oil, MCT oil, and all my other supps.
I’ve had 3 shakes so far. I’ll have 4 more.
The hotel I’m staying in has a real nice little gym with the best cardio equipment I’ve ever seen. It also has dumbbells up to 50Lbs and a couple benches. I brought my workout bands too. I’m going to do back and cardio tomorrow, and chest and cardio on Sunday. Maybe I’ll do some cardio today depending on time constraints.

Thank you! The crazy part is her brain still works a lot better than mine.

So, today I’ve had 6 protein/oat shakes. One more to go. In all honesty, I have to admit, protein shakes only dieting sucks!!!
Tomorrow my uncle is making me food that’s on my diet: fillet mignon with all visible fat trimmed, a dry baked potato, asparagus, and a dry salad. I’ll have avocado on my salad for healthy fats. I’m also going to find a grocery store somewhere and pick up some deli London broil roast beef and rice cakes. I can definitely tell I need two food meals daily. I probably should up it to 3 meals and 3 shakes but 2 meals is easier time wise. I only brought chocolate flavor protein powder with me for 4 days. Without a doubt, peanut butter cookie flavor blows all the rest away!

BACK WORKOUT:
- 5 sets standing band rows
- 5 sets seated band rows
- 5 sets single arm reverse grip band rows
- 5 sets narrow grip band pulldowns
I’m so sore and wiped out not having my HGH with me. I feel a hundred years old without HGH.

Just a question- do you use a rep scheme or do you go for failure?
Or do just do what you feel like?

CHEST DAY:
- 8 sets of push-ups with feet elevated 3 feet, feet elevated 2 feet, feet on the ground, hands semi-narrow, hands shoulder width apart, hands wide.
- 8 sets of double band flies pushing downward for lower/inner pecs, middle position for middle/inner pecs, and up high for upper/inner pecs.
I’m so tired and achy without my HGH. Maybe because I’m old it actually does what it’s supposed to do for me? I never sleep more than minutes at a time so I doubt I ever get stage 3 sleep. I don’t like doctors so I won’t do the sleep study necessary to get a prescription for a CPAP. Everyone says HGH makes them super tired and achy joints. Probably because they don’t need it. It really helps my arthritis and energy.

I go to failure but with perfect form. I never cheat or deviate on form to get extra reps. My main concern always is not getting injured. It’s kind of sad but when you get old you actually focus more on not getting injured on every rep than on the actual movement itself.
My reps typically are anywhere from 12- 20 depending on the movement.
