No. I work, and workout, at home. I have very little stress or commitments to rush me along.

Are you sure? Did it have something to do with that Messican outside your window wearing the "kick me" sign?

Are you touching yourself before working out? That could be the problem.

I'll also be doing 5 sprays (200mg) of 4-DERM morning and night.

I'll also be taking 1000mg of saw palmetto for any blood pressure problems and 1500mg of hawthorn berry for the prostate.

It case things start to go tits up, literally, and for PCT, I have Nolvadex (tomoxifen citrate), aka liquid ass.

For PCT, I'll do Nolvadex at 60/40/40/20mg. I'll continue on with the saw palmetto and the hawthorn berry, as well.

I currently wight in at 215 or so. My diet is about as good as it's ever been, which is just okay.

My workout plan:

Monday AM: Krav
Monday PM: Weights

Tuesday AM: off
Tuesday PM: Krav

Wednesday AM: Krav
Wednesday PM: Weights

Thursday AM: off
Thursday PM: Krav

Friday AM: Weights
Friday PM: off

Saturday AM: Krav
Saturday PM: off

Sunday AM: off
Sunday PM: off

I'll also try to fit in some bag time at home.

So, what do you think?

Looks good but i would ask you to post up your diet and macros.

Maybe you should take 3-5 days off just to heal up.

From 0 to 10.

- Feeling lethargic : 0
- Decline or plateau in performance (very common) : 9
- Lack of motivation to work out (very common) : 0
- Insomnia : 0
- Decreased appetite : 0
- Recurring illness : 0
- Persistant muscle/joint soreness : 0

Aside from the crappy workout performance, I feel fine. Better than fine, actually. That's why I'm so confused.

How are the workouts coming along?

Congratulations with finding a job.

Are you kidding? I touch myself while I workout. I've made some great gains that way.

I took your advice. In the last 8 days, I didn't workout once and only went to Krav once. I'm going to wait until the weekend to life, but I'll go to Krav tomorrow and Friday.

Thanks, man. I really like the job. Like I said, I work in the IT department of a huge hospital. Everyone that I work with is really nice. Hell, on my first day, my boss took me out to lunch.

I haven't worked out for 8 days. I also haven't done Krav but once in that time. I'm going to scrap my steroid plans because I've started working. Though I may do it later. I'm going to workout this weekend. Here's hoping that it goes well.

And the nurses? Got any nurse fantasies?

SamEaston · 06-15-2008, 01:47 AM

Hey DOMS - what's up mate??

Heya, Sam!

I'm busy, busy, busy.

Sadly, I have a job now.

So I spend a lot of time doing that.

I spend Tuesday through Thursday nights doing Krav. Oh, and I started doing fight night. My first night out I was hit hard enough in the face that my nose made a crunch sound. For my part, I hit with a wicked four-punch combo that ended in a uppercut. Plus, I did this left-right-left right kick combo followed up with a right hook that connected hard. I think I did well.

I've been a real slacker. I haven't worked out in a month or so. My plan is to workout this Saturday to test where I am on my bench, squat, and deads.

On the up side, I'm down to 214 pounds (15.28 stone). My old pants are falling off my ass. Literally. I'm eating better than I have in a long time.

So, how's life treating you?

Like I told Sam, getting into the swing of my new job has put a real kink in my day-to-day. I should workout this Saturday. Plus, a couple of weeks ago, I tweaked my left shoulder at Krav. When that happens, I give myself a mandatory month off of weights. I always play it safe, rather than sorry, when I'm injured.

On Sunday, after a two month hiatus, I tested my PRs.

Bench: 210 (5 off of my PR).
Squat: 260 (20 off of my PR).
Deads: 275 (25 off of my PR).

Considering that I've been focusing on endurance, I'm not too upset.

On last fight night, I had fun. Well, I guess it's "fun" in the way that I find pain to be fun.

We were doing an endurance exericse. There were four of us and, taking turns, one guy would be "it" while the rest took 15 second turns fight him for 2 minutes straight. During my turn, I took a spinning back kick (an illegal move I might add) from a 250 pound guy, right to the teabag. Despite that, I went on. Only to be rewarded with a crunched and bloody nose.

Like I said, it was fun.

Witchblade · 06-24-2008, 11:24 AM

You sadomasochist you.

goob · 06-24-2008, 12:05 PM

Was the 250lb guy a Mexican?

Your 1RM's still look good.

Double D · 06-24-2008, 03:46 PM

Parenting is fantastic. I wish I could be there more, but with the new job its just not in the cards. I put in nothing but 10 hour days and I drive an hour to and from work. Oh well, the all mighty dollar calls.

Witchblade · 07-18-2008, 01:24 PM

How are things, C.? Get any infractions lately?

danzik17 · 07-19-2008, 12:11 AM

Any new shit happening with Krav?

Surprisingly...not yet. But give it some time.

Things are going okay. My new job kicks ass. It's a large corporate environment, but 95%+ of the people are very friendly. After doing work for Boeing and Union Pacific, it's kinda of strange.

I'm down to 214 pounds, and it really shows through the torso.
