[Guy187]

I had to redirect my workout log to this. I will be logging Liv52 Livercare. 2 caps a day. Got it?

Follow along for all those who know me.

Gotta love it right?

[Guy187]

I usually have ran my training routine as VERY high weight with low reps 2-6, and have had decent gains on this; mostly for strength. I just recently started a 4 day bodybuilding split, with moderate-heavy weight with medium to high reps.

I really think Im going to enjoy this cycle, because both compounds are known to have good gains and also give you that euphoric ON feeling during cycle. I should have good libido and good joints with minimal sides also during this cycle.

I will update, or at least try to update daily and post all side effects, gains, measurements, thoughts, and really anything else I feel necessary to note.

DAY 1, 1/9/11

STARTING Weight is: 202lbs

I had a pretty good workout this morning. I am still trying to get all the weights set right for higher reps, but I am definitely getting a serious soreness/burn after my workout; so I guess Im doing it right. I'm really focusing on my form, squeezing and pausing at the top, and short 60 second rest periods for these workouts. Im really interested to see what it can do for size.

I had a pretty major pump going on in the locker room, triceps were pretty jacked. After my workout, I had to help a family member move for like 4 HOURS! I lifted quite a bit of ridiculously heavy shyt out of basements, into trucks, and into another place. So, by the time i was done with all that, EVERYTHING was smoked/fried from all the lifting. Bigtime. So I just piled in all the food I could for the rest of the day, and hoped for the best for my macros.

Sides: I got slight headaches during the day.

DAY 2, Monday, 1/10/11

Weight: 206lbs (+4lbs)

I woke up this morning pretty pumped for the gym. I stepped out of bed and though HOLY SHYT, my legs were crazy crazy sore from all the moving yesterday. I grabbed all my stuff, headed out into the frozen tundra, and away I went. I didn't like the idea of not having my White Flood pre-workout shake, but I suffered with it and had an everything bagel pre-workout.

I couldn't deadlift a whole lot because my legs were completely smoked and taken out of the equation, so I made due. I have no idea how I gained 4 lbs overnight, so we'll see how the week pans out.

Sides: I don't care if you say it is placebo effect or not, I had noticeably increased vascularity today over normal. Looked good. Good pump too.

DAY 3

Weight: 204.6lbs (+2.6)

MACROS for yesterday: Calories: 4850 Fats: 120 Carbs: 560 Protein: 370

Wow was it monster of a day yesterday for food. I was literally non stop hungry and eating all day, and all clean. Out of that 120 fats, I think only 20 was saturated. Not too bad. Plus Im pretty sure I drank close to 3 gallons of water too. I slept like a baby last night, so all was well.

Woke up this morning, pumped for my favorite day at the gym for shoulders. I woke up a little late, so I had to cut out abs today. But I increased the weight on a few of the lifts; I think Im getting used to the high reps low rest period workout now. It's feeling good. I wore a t shirt, and by the time the workout was done my arms and shoulders were so pumped I could barely get it off.

Also please note, all of these lifts are with EXTREMELY STRICT form.

Sides: Definitely noticed increased vasularity big time. I had more veins in forearms, the vein in bicep was more noticeable too. Also feeling a ridiculously HIGH libido, I mean big time.

DAY 4, Wednesday

Weight: 206lbs (+4)

MACROS for yesterday: Calories: 4500 Fats: 116 Carbs: 520 Protein: 335

OFF/REST DAY

Well, Wednesday is usually my off day, so that's what I did today. I think starting next week if I'm feeling up to it and recovered, I may hit chest and triceps for the 2nd time of the week on Wednesdays, but we'll see how good the recovery is going to be. Ill be hitting legs hard tomorrow.

Sides: Slight headaches here and there, but VERY VERY mild. Vascularity and veins are much more prominent than normal. Quicker and harder muscle pumps. I haven't noticed anything else at all yet.

[Guy187]

DAY 5, Thursday

Weight: 206.4lbs (+4.4)

MACROS for yesterday: Calories: 4200 Fats: 100 Carbs: 515 Protein: 335

I woke up late/slept in about 30 minutes longer than I normally do. So, that cuts my workout, literally, in half. So I did what I could today with no pre-workout meal, and rushing to get done what I could. I hit squats and leg press pretty hard, probably could have went harder if I was more awake.

You ever just want to get in the gym, put the headphones on, and jam while working out? And then some retard has to come over to you every five seconds and talk to about god knows what, and you have to act like you truly care?? All I wanted to fukcing do what listen to my music....Oh well. Life goes on.

Sides: The headaches have mainly subsided, which is normal for the first week. Vascularity.

DAY 6, Friday

Weight: ??

MACROS for yesterday: Calories: 4600 Fats: 140 Carbs: 490 Protein: 355

I woke up this morning earlier than usual, so instead of falling back asleep or staying awake and doing nothing, I hit the gym for about 45 minutes this morning to hit back and bis up again. I hit my upper back up pretty hard with some pullups and rows, and then repped out some good strong sets on deadlifts. I was going to go two more sets on deadlifts, which I easily could have, but I just did legs yesterday; and well my legs didn't feel so good this morning. DOMS for the win.

Also, Im definitely starting to feel some aggression in the gym, much more than normal. So we'll see how next week goes. Ill take first week measurements this sunday to compare so far.

Sides: None really. Highly increased libido by far, and longer muscle pumps.

DAY 9 Monday

Ill post all the updated stats and such for today later. I had a dream this morning that it was vidily still Sunday. No joke. I woke up at 5:15am and could NOT figure out why I set my alarm that early on a Sunday. So I proceeded to turn it off and sleep in until 7:20am. (I have to be at work at 7:30am) So needless to say, the gym wasn't happening this morning. So, I'll be hitting the gym up after work. Back and Bis.

DAY 9, Monday Night

Wicked workout. I was totally jacked and pumped by the end of this workout. Big time. Im looking bigger already, I can visually see it in the mirror and others are starting to take notice too. I got through the 3rd deadlift set, and my back was so so sore and PUMPED.

Anyway, weights went good. Looking bigger. Things are starting to get lighter.

DAY 10, Tuesday

Weight: ??

Another good day at the gym. Im feeling on top of the world in the gym man, and out of the gym starting too. Feels good. All the weights are starting to feel lighter, so I think next week Im going to kick it up and really set some PR'S and strength increases. Definitely looking much bigger in arms and shoulders. Quite a bit.

Weight: ?

It's my usual off day again. I was going to hit chest up again for the second time this week, but I got in late last night and decided to sleep in. I may do quite a few sets of pushups at home later today, but to kind of get a light chest day #2 in for this week.

Sides: Nothing really bad at all. High libido, feel good.

DAY 12, Thursday


Macros for yesterday: Calories: 4421 Fats: 113 Carbs: 516 Protein: 346

Weight: ?

I actually had a pretty good, strong leg day. All the lifts went up nicely, I hit squats hard, and I was actually able to still stand afterwards, which is abnormal. Maybe I should have did more? I felt awfully tired yesterday, and fairly drained in terms of energy this morning. I highly doubt that lethargy is setting in already, but, you never know. I'll play it out and see. I want to just grab a massive cup of coffee so bad. Im still slowly looking bigger in the mirror.

Sides: Libido is leveling off.

Workout felt good today. I got a real nice burn at the end of the workout, and biceps and back was pretty pumped. Biceps were obstructing my range of motion in the shower. That always feels good. No deadlifts today, only once a week. Ill be posting more measurements and another progress picture this weekend.

Sides: Still high libido. That's about it. Starting to feel tired during the day, but that may be from all the training and food too. Sleeping awesome.

BB Deadlift: 455lbs
BB Bench: 275lbs
BB Bent Row: 225lbs
BB Curl: 135lbs
BB Military Press: 195lbs

If so, that's pretty damn strong! Just looking at you I wouldn't think you could do that! Mirin! But I was just wondering why you aren't doing weight anywhere near that in you workouts.

.

[slimwealthy1]

shorter rests = less weight.

I'm about to start taking liv52 if it puts this much weight on!!!

[ShayZ]

Was highly confused on the Liv52 log. Now I get it lol.

Thanks man. Yeah, as slim said, shorter rest periods and higher rep sessions = less weight used.

shorter rests = less weight.

I'm about to start taking liv52 if it puts this much weight on!!!

Hey now. No, that's all my hard work, training, and my 4500 calorie diet. Im simply taking the liv52 for personal health reasons. To feel better of course. Im taking a multi too!

Was highly confused on the Liv52 log. Now I get it lol.

Yep. I like to keep myself healthy.
