Bubbadreier's MuscleTech Ultimate Stack Log

Sorry guys having some personal issues that have kept me out of the gym the last week or so, and kept we away from the internet. But I am going back to the gym tonight, I think the storm has passed. The reps can PM me if you need an explanation, rather not air it on here.

But that being said I am ready to hit the gym tonight! Its Chest and Tris tonight.

Once again I apologize to the reps but I am back at it :P

P.S. - I still can't get over the taste of the Cookies and Creme Phase8, it is hands down the best tasting protein I have had!

good to see you back posting in here. Sorry to hear about the personal issues, hopefully that has passed but if anything further does come up please keep us in the loop.

I will keep you in the loop! I think it has completely passed, it was a misunderstanding that almost ruined my life as it is.

I am seeing some awesome gains for certain, I really love the way my shoulders are filling out and the way my chest is feeling. I haven't lost weight but I am not focusing on that yet. I am going to build myself up for awhile so that when I do cut I can hopefully still have some mass.

Anyone have suggestions on when I should eat after a workout. I see people saying that I should eat within an hour after a workout, but I am in no way hungry after. After taking a Phase8 shake before, drinking Amino Build during, and having to eat something before I take Hydroxycut, in no way do I have enough room to eat! Is it okay if I wait two hours after working out to eat?

As long as you hit your macros, meal timing isn't really important. The meal that it might make a little difference is your preworkout meal. Some people can train fasted and do well while others can't.

you sure can wait a couple hours to eat after training.

Alright guys I am going to get a little more personal than I would like but you all need an update and I think you deserve to know!

Going back a month ago my wife and I started having some issues, she was sad all the time and anytime I left the house I could tell she was upset. This led to fight after fight. Including one where I pretty much didn't leave the house for a week, I thought everything was settled then but it wasn't. We had another blow out recently, and we finally got to the bottom of the issue.

I have a job that is 9am-5pm but also requires me to leave town for a week once a month for about 8 months out of the year. (usually February - September) I started working out a lot, I play disc golf all the time, I am apart of multiple online communities and I volunteer for our church. I get home around 8:30 every night and I am in bed by midnight mostly.

That is the issue my wife was having, I am never home and we don't spend time together any more, and my wife is a home body who doesn't usually like to leave the house much other than to go running. (I hate running) I finally got that out of her this last week. So I have taken steps to fix this issue.

I am stepping away from my duties at the Church, Disc Golf is off the table (I play for hours when I go), I have been taking a few days to run with my wife rather than go to the gym (I need to run anyway, I got to lose this weight), I am stepping away from most online communities (This place is not one of them, I kinda need you guys to keep my motivated) I can't do much about work, but I am going to do my best to be there for my wife.

So I will break down this week for you guys so far!

Monday -

I went on a run with my wife before work. It was brutal, I don't think I have ever been that close to throwing up from physical exertion. I took my Amino build and Hydroxycut before my run and Phase8 right after. That was a bad choice because think creamy drinks after a run might be the worst thing ever!

Tuesday -

I went to the gym to get a Back and Bi workout in which was great. I really do love the feel of HDXC (Hydroxycut) and I am realizing that two pills is not too many for me if I eat before.

Wednesday -

I took a walk with my wife for about 6 miles, my wife did not explain that part to me. "lets take a walk!" to me means around the block a time or two. Not 6 miles.... We didn't run for my sake, my legs were dying already. But I did go to the gym after, was supposed to be leg day but there is no way I could have made it, I focused on abs, calves, and forearms. I finished my first tub of Phase8 (I bought 2 tubes before the stack came in), and was excited to open my second and see a full tub again!

Thursday -

I took a break Thursday to just be with my wife, we went on a date night. Dinner, hot tub, wine, and her favorite movie (fool's rush in) I still took my HDXC and amino build that morning. My legs didn't hurt that day which was amazing.

Friday (today) - I am running with my wife again as soon as she gets home from the Grocery store. I have taken my HDXC and I just made my Amino Build.


I can say that in this week alone I have noticed that my wife has snapped back to the loving 97 pound mexican that I have known for 6 years, it has been night and day. Its crazy to think that I almost lost my wife because I was too caught up in what I wanted to do. This month has been a real eye opener.

I am praying that I can always keep my wife's feeling in my mind. Thanks for the prayer that those sent to me.

P.S. - I tried to make Cookies and Cream Protein pancakes... they were a fail.
