    Thanks Sox, I will try them. I've heard sometimes doing heavy neg's before the main exercise will up the weight you hit on your main exercise since it feels so much lighter.

    I wouldn't doubt that at all if your doing only 2-3 reps, but if your doing 5+ your going to feel your chest burning like crazy. Keep it up...

    Here's what Rob posted on Anabolicminds for people in PCT using Rebound

    FOr those who feel like they may be up shit creek without a paddle until they can get some other aid for PCT, remember there are certain techniques that can be utilised to help aid recovery and reduce the potential for muscle loss. These are basically the procedures used before 6OXO came out.


    Reduce training volume.
    Train slightly shy of failure (keep one rep in the tank).
    Bump your zinc intake to 30-50mg/day (or get some ZMA)
    Keep calories and carbs high. If you're currently dieting, raise your calories for a few weeks for the sake of recovery.
    Increase intake of flax oil (2-4 tblsp/day).
    Considering using small but frequent doses of EC each day. 5-10 mgs of E and 50-100 mgs of C every 2-3 hours is ideal.
    Again, the next Rebound batch will be available on the 15th July, but these techniques can be employed to keep you going until your PCT arrives.

    Felt like a good w/o, just want that bench up!
    Well it took Trizzle and me long enough to get you hooked again.

    Any reason you're doing doubles and not triples, or is this just one of your modifications? I answered your bench question in my journal, btw.

    Great, thanks a lot Blu! I also ordered another bottle of Nolva, hopefully that'll be here before what I have runs out.

    Haha, Westside has been lurking in me for a long time but I kept saying "No, I'll only get hurt again." Guess I decided it's worth the risk

    No reason other than I forgot Squats are doubles, bench is triples LOL. I read your answer, thanks a lot. I think that will help me out!

    OMG, I would die if I did over an hours worth of cardio. I'm shooting for 30 minutes for my PR high today . As stated earlier, your endurance is incredible.

    Thanks Blu, I just love cardio. Helps me relax and think. I was thinking maybe picking up a couple of races in the fall if my shins allow me.

    Not necessarily Mike. If I lose some fat that's great but I'm trying to improve my overall sense of health and physical abilities. Besides, cardio is a great way for me to get crap outta my system mentally. I'm trying for a few races this fall also. Thanks for dropping in buddy!

    I read in a few places about you taking Sesathin? I'm thinking about buying a bottle to give it a shot. What do you think? Do you recommend it? Trying to drop some flab around my midsection and I was thinking about going with Clen, but Sesathin seems so much more natural/safe. What kind of dose did you do, etc.

    I really liked the Sesathin Mike. I did 1 dropper 3 x a day. The only drawback for me was just doing it if that makes sense. Sometimes I'm taking so much crap I forget what I'm taking when. But now that you bring it up I'll have to start taking it again

    DE Lower

    Speed Squat to Parallel-
    115 x 2 (too slow)
    95 x 2 (4 sets)
    105 x 2 (5 sets)

    Speed Squat to below Parallel-
    105 x 2 (2 sets)

    Sumo Dead-
    135 x 10
    175 x 9
    185 x 8
    205 x 7 (lost grip)

    BB Shrugs, alternating grip-
    205 x 8
    225 x 8
    235 x 7
    245 x 7

    Lean Away DB Shrug-
    70 x 10
    80 x 10

    Windmill's-
    25 x 5
    20 x 6

    Sit-ups-0 x 18
    0 x 14

    NO WRAPS!!!


    Speed Squats- Wow, been awhile since I've done Box Squats. Starting real low and really working on form once again. May take awhile to get used to it again.

    Sumo Deads- 2nd time ever doing Sumo's. Weird movement and I started very low because I'm easing my back into it and grip is weak. It also felt weird my hands being so close together and rubbing up my body.

    Was going to do Leg Press here for legs but time was short

    BB Shrugs- I was happy with these since I didn't wear wraps.

    Windmill- HARD movement. I was disappointed how many reps I got, but it just goes to show how much my core needs work. Same thing with Sit-ups.



    I'm buying a camera this weekend that will take video's. I'll start posting vids so I can get critiqued on my form.

    Nice workout Rocco. Speed work can get repetitive but it ends up being worth it in the long run. What are your bench/squat/deadlift 1RM's?

    Thanks Mike. Right now the Speed work is great for getting my form down as well, it's not coming easy. I won't be doing speed bench however, I think that's been part of my arm problem.

    Right now my bench is 235 Used to be 275 last time on WS, Squat prob 275 and I have no idea my dead now. Last time I pulled about 365 but I know I can't do that right now.

    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...
