    HAHA!! Love the animations!! That was awesome! I always take my PWR and MORPH on an empty stomach. I cant eat before I workout, even if I wait a few hours before. I always feel like I am going to get sick. So the empty stomach played a part I am sure because I always get the tingles. Nice work on the bench man! Looking forward to hitting the "Sean 6" on my next shoulder day!

    Keep it up!

    HAHA thats what it makes me think of when it happens. I checked out the MORPH.. do you use one or the other or do you use both at the same time?

    Thanks alot man, Its going up slowly, but im happy with it. The "Sean 6" was no joke, looked funny straining with 5lb dumbells but it was a grind. (atleast for me it was)

    I will take MORPH about 15 minutes before I am ready to hit the gym and sip on my PWR during my drive. IT takes me about 15-20 minutes to get there so by the time I start/finish warming up I am feeling good ready to get after my workout.

    Oh man... I did the 6 sets of the 6 ways.. holy crap!! I used 5lb dumbells for 5 of the sets and 10lb for the last set only. The last few reps were a grind. I got plenty of funny looks, caught a couple guys staring and got made fun of by my friends wife, but there was no way myself or any of them were doing this for any higher. It felt good to get through them though.



    Thanks alot bro!! glad to have to along!! I sleep fine, Typically i take it around 8:30pm and im in bed at 11ish. I rarely have trouble sleeping anyways, and using this doesnt interfere with that


    Today was the start of the 2nd week of the 3's wave. Looking forward to benching. I did sleep in a little late instead of eating breakfast (this is rare). So i had just a mini bagel and strawberry cream cheese. I waited a half hour then had a packet of PWR with 4oz of water. It happened!!! I got the tingles on the way to the gym(as i was pulling in)


    Now its time to work these off haha.

    Flat Bench Press (working sets @ 255)
    135 x 20 (warm up and stretch)
    215 x 1
    240 x 1
    255 x 3 (4 sets)
    255 x 8 (left maybe 2 in the tank)
    Now with me upcoming meet just around the corner i want to spinkle in a paused single hear and there. My predicted 2nd attempt on bench was going to be 300 (which ive missed twice at meets). Came down and paused for a couple seconds and pushed it up with no problem
    300 x 1
    Im hoping my strength stays up through the meet. Feels good.

    Then moved on to the 6 ways Sean suggested in another thread.. oh dayum!!

    6 Ways
    5 sets of 10 with 5lbs
    1 set of 10 with 10lbs (this was nuts.. definitely felt a huge burn when i wasnt even halfway through)

    Before hitting decline I had a serious pump. Shoulders, Front delts, and traps were full (almost ripped my shirt off and paraded around, but i held back..this time)

    Decline Bench
    135 x 10
    225 x 10
    275 x 5
    285 x 5

    Then to finish it off i superset cable tri pull downs (one arm) with cable concentration curls

    Sets of those until it burned bad (get the beach muscles ready for the summer..slowly)


    Felt it more today than any other day (maybe with my stomache having little in it?) Had plenty of energy to push heavy on bench and go right through the 6 ways. I had my brother doing it with me so the only rest was when the other person was going and no stopping during the sets, just burning right through. Was definitely happy to have this along to help get through this!! (The tingles only lasted a few minutes not too bad at all)
    I told you those 6 ways are killer! Sure, you may get some funny looks...but when they try it, they quickly realize it'll sepearate the men/women from the boys/girls.
    It's great to see that the PWR left you with some energy! I hope you tossed in some RESTORAID after to help you recover after that workout!

    It's got a great citrus punch flavor to it, and mixes semi-easy. Plus, with it being sugar free, stim free, and only 5g carbs per serving it makes it a perfect addition to have anytime!

    For those wondering, IHMJ accepted a leg day challenge.

    Here is what I have picked out for him:

    Lying leg curls:2-3 w/u sets. Pick a weight that is a challenging 10 and do 3 sets of 12. On the 4th set, do 10, then do 20 partials out of the stretched position.

    BB stiff legged deads: 4 sets of 8. come up 3.4 of the way.

    Leg press: 6 ests of 10 w/ 60 sec rests (3 sets wide, 3 sets narrow)

    Squats: 3 sets of 20

    Step ups on a low box: Put a BB on your back and step up onto a box. The box should not be real high..I wouldnt want you to lose control and just drop down when you back down. Do 10 reps on one leg, and then do 10 on the other. Do 4 sets on each leg.

    Adductors: 3x20

    IHMJ....

    I applaud you and shake my head at you in disbelief... I have tried one of Sean's wheels workouts before and I just hope you have one of those high toilets because you won't want to sit down or stand back up from one otherwise! lol


    I agree RESTORAID is another one of the top notch products that you should look into throwing into your program when you are done. Here is a link to someone that did a review on in... a PL guy who seemed to enjoy it. http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...ight=Restoraid

    HAHA the official call out.. cant back out now. I may try to fit it in this week, i was going to wait but now i want to just do it and see how bad it is. Ill get some more foam rolling in tonight and if i have tomorrow night free (ill know a little later) then ill do it then.

    The RSTORAID looks pretty good, im going to give it a go. Im sitting here right now with sore adductors and i thinking it would be tough/weird to get a foam roller in there, so some recovery help will be nice

    I have a little work to do right now, but will update last nights w/o as soon as im done!!

    Finally got a minute to update..today is busier than i thought. So last night i drank my PWR with 6oz of water on the way to the gym. Thought id have more time than i did but no.

    Warmed up again with the same w/u i worked with Friday

    1 set of 50 reps each light adductor , abductor, seated leg curls, and leg extensions

    This is good for getting my legs to feel pretty full before i squat. When i finished these, energy was way up there tonight..

    Squat (working sets @ 315)
    135 x 5 (not much warm up or stretch needed)
    250 x 1
    295 x 1
    315 x 3 (4 sets)
    315 x 5 (leaving 2 or 3 in the tank)

    Didnt have much tim after this so i figured id do a few DL pulls

    315 x 1
    405 x 1
    450.. when i pulled i felt a soreness in my lower back so i backed off. Nothing that stuck around though thankfully. Not an intense workout last night. Tonight is shoulders so i will hit it alot harder.. try to improve on the 6 ways after my main movement of OHP

    So far the taste of the PWR is great and give a noticeable energy boost that doesnt just crash after. When i move at a more accelerated rate, i notice a nice pump. With i think 4 left, I will be going hard down this home stretch

    Im glad the soreness in your back didnt stick around! Low back is nothing to mess with man!

    Im glad you liked what you saw with the RESTORAID! It is a pretty awesome recovery drink and makes and awesome post workout slushy!!

    I know you are about done with the packets so I just wanted to remind you also about making a YouTube video and doing the BB.com store review at some point. It's great having these logs but those two little things mean a lot! Thank again man!

    You're a smart man to back off when the "bad" pain sits in....I had a lower back pump yesterday that I could not get rid of...I laid on a med ball to stretch it out which helped only temporary. Luckily, like you, it didnt stick around.

    Looking forward to a great YouTube video! You have the PWRRRR!

    Yea back is the only one that worries me. I pulled mine years ago moving an entertainment center and i couldnt get out of bed for a week. Thats when i was younger, id probably need a wheelchair now. Glad to hear yours didnt stick around either. Back pain is no beuno.



    ^He took a scoop before his workout

    So as i suspected, im a banahead and left my camera at work. (id use my phone to video but it doesnt stand up on its own, the only downfall for the S3)

    Starting next workout and for the last 3 they will be video logs so you will be stuck looking at my aging mug for the duration. haha.

    Tonight was another good night for the PWR. I feel like the more you use it the better results you get. Sipped it on my way to the gym and when i got there i had a ton of energy again, PWR mixed with the fact that i love hitting shoulders, had me pumped. Now so far as far as being satisfied with the product, i couldnt be happier. This is the first from iSatori that i tried and decided to get the RESORAID for a post workout, im sure i wont be diasappointed. Hoping the BB.com store stocks the blue rasperry flavor of PWR soon, would love to try that. Tonights main movement was Overhead Press. Had to do it seated because all the racks were full (first time i ever saw that)

    Seated Overhead Press (working sets @ 145)
    warm up and stretch (always super important,can ever stress it enough)
    125 x 1
    140 x 1
    145 x 3 (4 sets)
    145 x 10 (left a few in the tank)

    Seated Tri Pushdowns
    210 x 15
    220 x 15
    240 x 12 (2 sets)

    The 2nd set of 240 x 12 my tris felt like they were going to burst through my skin, had a monster pump)

    Barbell Front Raise superset with Reverse Pec Deck
    60 x 8...............................80 x 15
    60 x 8...............................90 x 15
    70 x 8...............................100 x 15

    Dumbell Tri Overhead Press
    70 x 15
    80 x 10
    80 x 7

    Arms were puffed up hard. Did a set of 6 pullups.. if i got 10 i was going to do another set, but i didnt make it haha

    Sick workout my man! Sean might be the one to ask about when/if the Blue Rasp. will be in the store. Personally that is my favorite between the two. Looking forward to the videos and your thoughts on RESTORAID! The citrus flavor is a nice change up from throwing down protein post!

    .. look at that happy fella


    Sean i hate you bro. Took on your challenge tonight. Took me 1hr 20min to do it. Luckily i checked my ego at the door and went modest on the weights, This was insane. The weight i moved wasnt much but I can tell the DOMS that are heading my way arent going to be pretty. Drank my packet of PWR on the way to the gym and was ready to go.. Ton of energy, i was pumped to get this going (started at 8:30)

    Lying Leg Curls
    after 2 warm up sets until i had a good burn i got started.. not sure what is a challenging 10 for me so i started a little too low

    120 x 12
    140 x 12
    140 x 12
    140 x 10 (barely got the last one up)
    partials .. dropped to 110
    110 x7.. had to drop to 90 to get the last 13.. feet were already heavy now

    Stiff Leg Deadlift (coming up 3/4 of the way)
    95 x 8
    145 x 8
    185 x 8
    145 x 8 Dying now (Its now 8:52)

    Leg Press ( 3 sets wide, 3 sets narrow)
    Wasnt sure how to set this up so i did the wide stance then slid my feet in to do narrow, rest, repeat... theburn on the 3rd set was insane.. though i was going to puke)
    270 x 10 wide..270 x 10 narrow (3 sets)

    Squats (again was pretty modest and almost felt like i was sandbagging a set starting off with 135)
    135 x 20
    135 x 20
    135 x 20.. this set felt like it took 10 minutes.. i had to go at a slower pace)

    Step Ups on a box w/ barbell on my back (box was about knee high)
    10 steps left leg then 10 steps right leg (did 4 sets back to back) . awful.. i was pumped i only had adductors left

    Adductors (home stretch baby!!)( 3 sets of 20)
    90 x 20
    110 x 20 (2 sets)

    Last few reps were a grind but i knew it was the end.. one of the all time toughest leg workouts ive ever done.. im more of a low rep guy, this was a whole new ugly world for me haha

    I know I love that movie too! Glad you checked the ego at the door before knocking out one of Sean's leg workouts. He is a bad man and I am/am not looking forward to hitting legs with him once I am able. He has already promised me a good puke session! haha

    Thanks for getting the store review and the video review done! I/We appreciate it! Looking forward to seeing how your body responds and hope that you are able to get your deads in on Friday!

    Yeah... I am a little dinged up right now. Got in a little car accident and once I was cleared to start training again they said I would start to feel the effects of the accident more. I told Sean once I get back to 100% we need to get a workout in and he immediately said legs... He is a bad man!
