I would have told that "trainer moron" to kiss your butt and stick to his pansy ass squats!
you need some headphones and a shirt that reads "DO NOT DISTURB"

UGH. Weights sucked hard. Im seriously never, ever, ever, ever taking a week off again. Or at the very least, there's no way im gonna let myself get sick that same week.

Had planned to do more sets per exercise, but i think coming off a no carb day kind of screwed me. Blah. I'm ready to start guzzling anadrol.

Guzzling Drol... Yea, I dont think thats a great idea, but if you choose to, get advice from the AAS forum here.

i feel like there was some mixup in the genepool, and somehow i was stuck with the muscle mass of a 10 year old girl.

Well, I am not that stong and looking at your journal I would say that you aren't really training for strength. it would be fun to have a new training partner.

I got some bodyfat calipers from 1fast yesterday. Got some very erratic readings at first... from 8% to 28%. lol. They finally seemed to get consistent around 15%, which i find hard to believe. Then again, it is only a 3 point test, and ive never used calipers before. As long as i can keep the reading consistent, it should help to guage my progress at least. I'm gonna keep practicing.

I think i might want say "fck off, size" and just train for strength. These numbers are killing my self esteem. I think i fell into the bodybuilding routine because a couple years ago when i first got interested, i told myself "big muscles = lots of girls"

And as for a training partner... how about you just consider me a client for now. You'd end up having 3 minute rest intervals waiting for me to strip the weight down after every set.

We're just way too intimidated to go up to girls who look that good.

Yeah, see that's the problem with you men. You like the women to be built and then you won't approach them and just stare. So instead we think your freaks with an uncontrollable staring issues and we get completely disgusted where instead you could just walk up to them and strike a conversation.

I have that probalem too. I think that my body isn't good enough for most of the girls that I am into so I get scared to talk to them. usualy in my head I am hearing "no way man! don't do it. she wont talk to a sloppy shit hanging mess like you." So I get nervous and walk away.

Oooh, cant forget the Alpha GPC ive got coming from BAC.

This'll be one hell of a test. If even all these chemicals can't make a marked improvement in diet/training/mental health, i think i'll just become a food tester for Hershey or something.

Oh my dear god...

I just drank a concoction of 6g piracetam, 2g alcar, and ~1g NAC. That has to be the most hideous, grotesque, face contorting brew ive ever experienced.

EUWGHGAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I wonder if i can just snort 10 grams of powder?

One leg ham press - 160lbx10x10x10

Lying curl - 120lbx10 130lbx10

Standing calf raise - 105lbx15x12x8 (tempo 1 up, 4 down) x12 (normal)
