done for the day. outstanding day today. went in a little earlier than usual and surprisingly i got going right out of the gate. felt great and kept a hell of a good tempo going. strength and pump were really good and other than a little forearm splints and elbows a tad bit tender everything else felt great. really happy with the day. i am thinking it most likely came from the refeed yesterday topping off the tanks.

done for the day. went in quite a bit earlier than usual and of course it was packed. so slow start and super aggervated getting the work in. got going pretty good and had to pull back and remind myself not to over do it, that's why i dropped out the rest pause work. strength is really good and still climbing but joints are dry and tender. so once i get good and warm they arent tender and i start to get silly. good thing i was starting to cramp today because i had to catch myself haha. great pump and really good volume. one more training day of the week and most likely close out the week nice. happy with condition and vascularity today and how everything is looking. so another successful one in the books

done for the day. great session tons of volume and really good pace. got in nice and early again this am since the mrs didnt have to work and trained with a buddy. wife and son had to make up legs so buddy and i went back to back for the duration to push tempo. so of course pump and condition work were on point. since i cant push up to awful heavy it clicked on me to get to a point were i am about 1-2 reps away from failing with perfect form and then toss in an amrap set in the end. no crazy stupid stress on the joints get some good stimulation but not lose any size and fullness with this approach. at least that's what sounds good in my mind. so keeping a good intensity technique in that doesnt put to much stress on everything risking injury. also still got another free meal and went to the beach for a few hours yesterday and got sun burned. so today and tomorrow will be a bit uncomfortable. finished out the week good and strong. another good week in the books with 2 more to go.

the rebound:
1ml omna ed 6 days a wk
1ml or 100mg npp 5 days a wk
1ml tne/drol/bol blend 5 days a wk (training days only) taken approx. 90-120 minutes prior to training
1 viag/cialis taken 1 hour prior to workout
50mg oral drol taken on off days 2x a day
gh 5ius 5 days a wk
igf 4wks on 4wks off 60mcg preworkout 15mins prior
cjc on the 4 wks off from igf 60mcg prior to bed
metformin 500mg during 4wks off igf postworkout
supplement lineup:
orange triad 2-3x daily
acv 2 tblspns 3x day. 1st am/noon and final meal
cycle support 2 scoops 1x day
hawthorne berry 2caps 3x day
vit c 1g 3x a day
omega 3 fish oil 2g 3x day
that's about it for now. i will update our planned cycle change and my updated training and diet setup since i have turned it up full bore.
my guinea pig is currently sitting at 282 first thing in the am at 9% bf. he is strong as an ox right now and hungry as ever.
you guys are more than welcome to chime in with questions and comments as you like. i will post up my daily training and when i cheat on my diet haha. hope you enjoy these upcoming months cause it is going to be a blast and chaotic experience for us all
Wondering what you think of Mraformin over straight insulin use?

I am interested, obviously, I've been away so long I'm just curious about what guys are doing now and I've realized pretty quickly that you are on top of things.
Yes that is more conventional. Were you trying to drop some fat first before you started blasting food?

start off each meal in a mid range say 6oz protein and 50-60g of carbs. do that for a wk. then the following wk move up 1oz of protein and 10-20g carb. if you get stuck then maintain it for another wk and go back at it again. now the excuse everyone has is i dont want the pot belly blah blah. sorry it is a part of the process but when you diet down it will go completely away. last show i did i went from a 38 on a full stomach to a 30 on a full stomach. i could have brought it down even more but i balanced out anyway so no worries.
Only thing I can add is shakes shaved me. I just do not have a big appetite. The trainer I was using got me to buy a carb powder that's no longer available but one identical is. Now foods carbo gain. Is just pure complex carbs you have whatever amount of carbs you're shooting for, say 60, for one meal, so you add enough carb powder to equal 60 g of complex carbs. Then get a good protein and mix the protein in, whatever amount your meal calls for. The carb powder is neutral, tastes like nothing so you will get flavor from the protein you choose. You can add a Tblsp of coconut oil, macadamia nut oil ect. You have a complete meal that you can finish in less than 5 min. I would set alarm for 2-3 am just to get one in so I could push to 8 meals a day.

9 ounces of chicken 7 times a day. I'll never forget that. Forcing it down with water.
Bodybuilding, done correctly, is the hardest thing you'll do in your life. And, I've graduated law school, worked as an attorney for many years. Still. Nothing compares to properly getting prepared to compete. If you can do that you can do anything. Sort Guns for posting so much your log just interested me. I hope you did well in the contest.

i will get back to all of your other ones later on man. as for the carb powders, you need to look into highly branch chain cyclic dextrin or cluster dextrin(same things). you can buy it in actual supps or get the powder straight up, that's what i do but i only use it with my intra shake and not in my actual meals. as you can see from start to finish, i have no issues eating haha. the cyclic dextin digests super easy and is easy on your guts. all the other powders made it damn near impossible for me to eat comfortably and i had to force myself to eat. even in high doses of the cyclic dextrin i have absolutely no issues at all eating and it is great alongside of slin
