done for the day. got this session in in about an hour and 20 minutes. chest felt really good even though my shoulders and tirs are pretty sore and tired. got a really good pump and focused on lots of constant tension for the duration of all the sets. had my therapy session today and even though painful it went very well. we are going to evaluate next week and i may be done for a few weeks and then come back take a look at the area again to make sure nothing is building back up on the it band and the outside tendons that cause me so much pain. she worked calves and hams again today also so i will be nice and sore on my day off tomorrow haha.

That's such a fine balance between gaining and keeping the BF where you want it. Especially going into another bulk. I'm never satisfied so I end up adding cardio a little to much. I love a good refeed though.

i am training 6 days a wk hard and i honestly dont think with the combo of heavy and high volume that i could actually add any cardio in on top of that without either getting hurt or being nasty over trained. i did take a little play from your play book and snuck in a little tren a just for a little added boost to speed up the process a bit and give a little strength nudge. i will up the carbs a little more next week by maybe 1-150ish. i am only about 10 pounds off where i want to be anyway and it is no rush either way
