Course, this is my second round through, altered of course.

And thanks for all the well wishes. I still feel like ass, but on the bright side I have been eating like shit and dropped a few pounds. Probably muscle too, but that will come back quickly. Then again, so will the fat. My fat cells are greedy fuckers.

I missed legs today as well, but I will get my ass to the gym tomorrow irregardless.

BTW, what the hell does irregardless mean anyway? I mean, what is different than plan ole' regardless?

As to the 6-oxo question -- when? I have used it all all sorts of doses (100 -700) and for all different lengths of time (few days to many weeks).

Etymology: probably blend of irrespective and regardless
nonstandard
usage Irregardless originated in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its fairly widespread use in speech called it to the attention of usage commentators as early as 1927. The most frequently repeated remark about it is that "there is no such word." There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead.

Phew, good to hear ... that means I can stop worrying about you getting in bikini shape in time for the holiday, right?

LOL. I had a feeling I'd get a variety of responses to that post.

Jodi, if it makes you feel any better, I am freakin' starving today.

Oh, I trained shoulders this am and I did a different workout than I have been. Dropped intensity down some and did barbell military presses for the first time. I worked up to plates, which felt good. The tendons were damn tight though.

Good arm workout this morning, although it was an instinctual one, and not planned.

Diet has been good, and weight is down -- looked leaner today. Also, I have really cut out all supplements since being sick, so I am "clensed." H.E.A.T. Stack and SesaThin have been added back in -- hey, only two weeks until vacation.

At least your back in the gym. That's a good sign.

Brief update, for those of you still following, as I am heading out to play in a charity golf outing....

Reletively good diet this weekend, and today I was looking lean. Clocked in at 204.5, as well.

Training chest today, and the workout was good, but strength was down. Not too concerned about this, however, as I mixed it up a bit, as I have been doing since my cold. Guess I was getting burnt out, logging all the details in the book, so this freestyle suits me right now.

Less than two weeks until holiday.

I think I speak for us all in sending deepest, deepest condolences on the fact that you had to put up with such hardship on your golf jolly (does 'jolly' translate into Americano in this context?). Honestly, my heart bleeds ... just think, everyone else was lucky enough to be at work.

Perhaps you should take a holiday to recover

Ah, nice. Always leave your audience wanting more, is that right?

Where are the details man, the inspiration for those following your progress and hoping to emulate? "Legs" This is all you give? Sheesh ...

Okay, I give. Chest is sore as hell. Back was a solid workout yesterday, though I changed things up a bit. Started with pull ups, then hammer strength rows, then some other crap. Was a good workout though.

Legs was pretty shitty today, with my heaviest squat being 315 for 6. One must keep in mind however, that I hadven't trained legs for two weeks (missed last week due to sickness).

Diet, well, its goes well for 12-18 hours, then I overeat, then diet again. Its been 3 steps forward, 2 back, but I am making slight progress. I'll take some caliper measurements one of these days.

For the Intensity Phase I typically start with extensions (bad knees, so this is a good warm-up) then hit squats, then either one-leg leg presses or two (depending on whether I feel like loading up the rack). I'll usually finish with sled hack squats depending on the rest of the workout, then leg curls and stiff leg deadlifts.

Very brief update. I have been struggling through workouts the past few weeks, physically. (In the gym) I have lacked energy and motivation. I attribute this to slight burn-out coupled with long work hours and little sleep.

Anyway, my workouts have been shitty, and I am taking off for 7-10 days while on vacation. I expect to fight through the next 3 workouts and then come back reinvigorated. That's the plan at least.

It's been a while since you've taken time off if I recall. This may be just what you need

Yeah, the vacation is much needed.

We rented a large beach house in the Outer Banks.
