Thanks! I don't have access to a tester/calipers, just an estimate. Thats what a digital hand held tester was saying a month ago.

Day 1:

Workout - Back, Biceps

Rack Deadlift (2 inches below knee):
8 x 185
8 x 315
3 x 435

bb rows:
10 x 135
10 x 165
10 x 165
5 x 185

underhand chins:
11
10
10

incline alt. db curls:
3 x 13 x 38s

1 arm preacher:
8 x 28
7 x 28
7 x 28

hammer curls: (6 sec. negs.)
3 x 16 x 38s
-drop- 16 x 23s

high cable curls (drop set):
5 x 55, 9 x 40, 11 x 30

Lets see, first day. Well first off, I was a little too ambitious with the rack deads, muscles feel a little strained. Around the chins I started to feel tired. So instead of doing db rows I went on to the bicep work. All I can say so far is that I got some preeeetty tight biceps pumps on those last few drop sets, they hurt!

Would it be OK to take some EC while on phera-plex? Is there a contraindication because of the blood presure raise? I am taking celery seed. If this tiredness was caused by it I'm going to need something to boost me up.

Nothing else yet, I am excited to see where the next few days go. And thanks for the encouragement everyone.

EC is cool, just make sure you have the celery 45mins later, thatz when its agonist effects start. Do you have any preexistent BP conditions? Did'nt I send you the stimulant?

Thanks for the help, no BP conditions. I never did get the new stimulant, though. Should it have come the same day as the Phera-Plex?

Is that enough food? Just curous.

9 x 68

cable laterals:
3 x 12 x 30

db rear laterals:
2 x 14 x 23

rear lateral on inc. bench: (done 1 arm at a time. I feel like my mid traps take over for my rear delt on my left side. I need to go light and try to reeducate that delt to contract on its own.)
3 x 10 x 10

Pretty good workout, the EC helped. I've been feeling good and full all day since the workout. And hungrier than usual.

Today my dad and I harvested to last of the oysters we had been growing for the past 2 or so years. They are huge and look great! My Dad called up his brother and said "if you saw him you would think he's on steroids." No, Phera-Plex is not that quick to work, they are just used to me around 140lbs.

Quick funny thing: I saw these two girls come in the gym, do db curls and a few crunches, leave and go straight into the line for the Burger King drive through. I guess they are working for that Whopper!

It has been keeping me slowing growing so far. Do you think I should up it a lot? Like 500 extra cals or what?

yup

[C-Los 21]

I just weighed myself this morning and I gained 7 lbs in 4 days. I'm currently on an SD log wich you can check out in my log. I eat about twice as much as you, maybe more. I haven't gotten fatter nor has my BF % gone up. Seems all you eat is used up for muscle growth.

Then I guess I need to eat whenever I can. So hard to do it in the middle of classes, everyone looks at you but F it I gotta get big.

Day 3:

Workout - Legs

ATG squat:
10 x 160
10 x 190
6 x 230

8 x 760
8 x 760
11 x 760

Standing 1 leg curl:

Super sets:
Calf press:
3 x 20 x 360
ss w/
seated calf raise:
3 x 10 x 180
-drop on last set to 90 and rep out-

Workout was good, not outstanding, but some increases on leg press and leg curls. Considering how I've been feeling lately, not bad at all. Last night I got 7 hrs of sleep, which is no where near enough. This morning and pretty much off and on all day, I have been tired and run down. Hopefully this has to do only with my circumstances and not the product. I did start at a higher dose than most people did though. I will try to get some good sleep tonight and update tomorrow.

On a side note, muscle contractions are very strong and noticeable. I was just sitting in class today and my lat was getting all pumped just by leaning on the desk. I can just sit there and contract a muscle and it feels like it does in a workout. All day I have a mild pump going on.

Weight this morning: 180, up 1 lb

[Bammy]

Day 4:

Workout - Chest & Tris

bb flat bench:
12 x 105
12 x 145

Feeling stronger today. Yes, bench is one of my poorest lifts, but I was stronger there today. Great hard feeling pumps too.

I feel fine today, but I have still been tired almost all the time. My normal amount of sleep is no longer enough.

Day 5:

Workout - Back, Biceps

Deadlift:
8 x 185
8 x 255
8 x 325 (here comes the blood)
4 x 375

Wide chins:
9 (hurt elbow too much, had to change it up)

Hammer strength rows: (trying these for the first time)
12 x 90
10 x 140
10 x 160

EZ bar curl:
3 x 5 x 100

alt. db curls:
3 x 22 x 38s

1 arm high cable curls:
3 x 12 x 45

The past 2 days I have been feeling the strength. Deadlifts felt great, never got 4 reps with 375 before, best was 2. I really like the hammer strength rows too. They're are a great alternative to bb rows when the lower back is too beat up. First time curling 100 as well. Aside from the lethargy, I'm feeling very good, especially during workouts.

I have been drinking a ton of water, and peeing a lot as well.
My body was sucking up water while training. I weighed in at 190 after the workout and my shake! I had clothes and shoes on, but still I was shocked. I went back down a few hours later.

Weight this morning: 182, up 3 lbs. I got the eating down now

[PureMotivation]

Hey Bammy how do you do those Hammer Strength rows?
