Monday - Day 4

Most Recent Pictures are attached.....

Lifting Today:
- Squats (135 x 10) (185 x 8) 4 sets - 205lb - 8 reps
- DB Chest Press (45 x 12) (65 x 8) 4 sets - 75lb - 8 reps

- Circuit (Swiss Ball Leg Curl, Swiss Ball Push Up, Inverted Row on Smith Machine) 4 sets - 10 reps - BW or Swiss Ball

Felt really strong today and all sets were completed with little doubt of failure so I will try and up the weight next week.

This is my first time trying BA or CEE and so far I really enjoy it. I got the BA tingles for the first time today with my first serving of the day Pre W/O. It felt kind of euphoric and nice in my muscles. Got a little tingle after which was nice knowing it was working.

Diet for Monday is a usual lifting day: you can follow my diet on Fitday if you want.... http://www.fitday.com/WebFit/PublicJournals.html?Owner=KBarnard2

Could it get any better than that?

[AllGenetix]

Off Day: Did a 5 mile hike with the mother for mother's day but nice relaxing day..

Will try and post new pics when I get a chance!

[AllGenetix]

[AllGenetix]

Another HIIt session today. I went to a different 24hr Fitness and their treadmills went to 12.5 max so i bumped up my sprints for this.

2 min walk @ 3.5
5 min jog @ 6.0

30 sec sprint @ 12.5
60 sec walk @ 3.5

repeat 10 times

5 min walk cooldown @ 3.5

very nice, that .5 extra reallly makes it tough.....oh and i start the clock when the treadmill reads the exact speed, not when I input the speed increase (it usually takes like 8 seconds to rev up)

[AllGenetix]

As of today i am about halfway done with my bottle and my results so far....


Strength - 9/10, all lifts have gone up or stayed the same with recomp diet so very pleased with that.

Endurance - 10/10, when I do high rep work or cardio my endurance seems to be up and I can really feel the burn within the muscle

Recovery - 9.5/10, I use a high volume full body 3x a week routine with HIIT 2x a week so this was tough to judge but I have never felt this energized to workout everyday so this is a plus!!

Side Effects - 10/10, no side effects that are negative. Sometimes I get the beta alanine tingles when i take post-workout but i kinda like that...haha

[AllGenetix]

thanks for all the support guys, i was beginning to think i was the only one following it....

as for today...HIIT - swimming style

8 laps warmup various strokes

20 minutes of 25m spring w/ 25minute walk back

10 minute cooldown walking in waist deep water

the pool i was swimming in was 6ft at its deepest so i could walk back in about 30-45 seconds...it ended up being a 15sec sprint w/ 30-45sec rest....damn that was hard

i took my voluplex in the morning as usual but i had a question....should i take it post HIIT or only post weight training?

I would do it post weight training as this is where you should be using Creatine the most.

i am almost done with the voluplex and i really want to get my hands on some more so i can keep my carnosine levels saturated in my muscles. i can really feel the difference with the beta alanine in strength and especially endurance (reps > 12).

also i felt much fuller yesterday in my muscles on a 2000cal diet which is surprising because i was expecting to feel flat with the low carb day. nice surprise.

overall no bad side effects to report as of yet but i will do a complete review when finished.
