Hex 450 Review/Log

[the_predator]

Npp shot from yesterday in the tricep is nonexistent already, but Mondays npp delt shot is still tender. As I stated earlier, it may be from how far forward of the delt I shot. I think I have finally made a definite decision to switch to tren from Npp and start my t3/Clen cycle starting in March.

I had about 2 gallons of water today. Today was just a crazy day. I think I may be getting my daughter's strep throat. It's starting to get a little hard to swallow. My eating today was all over the place with odd things. I honestly just want to forget about today and get some sleep. I forgot, didn't do night cardio(I know, I know).

 

[exerciseordie]

Go to the doctor bro. Get that shit knocked out before it gets bad!

I had about one and a half gallons of water today. The weights went up super easy today. I guess I was wrong about me getting strep throat. I tend to be a little of a hypochondriac. My wife said my throat was just a tad bit red. I will say exerciseordie's advice was on the money. Dropping the higher calorie shakes and eating whole food instead definetly felt better. I was not bloated at all because of dropping the shakes. I felt "lighter" if you know what I mean. I did a tricep Npp shot today and absolutely no PIP at all. Definetly felt better today compared to yesterday.

 

[exerciseordie]

Since I've started eating clean I have no stomach issues. I don't take 5 shits a day. I honestly just feel better.

 

[exerciseordie]

And bro you shoot in some areas I wouldn't dare lol

 

[the_predator]

And bro you shoot in some areas I wouldn't dare lol

Yeah, but biceps and triceps are with slin pins. I shot my calf and bicep once with a 23g x 1.5 and I use to do my triceps a lot with that in the rotation. All I can say is thank goodness for slin pins! Either way, NO MORE CALF SHOTS! LOL

Had close to two gallons of water today. No cardio in the morning or evening due to a early birthday party(it was either lift or do cardio), but at the birthday party I played with the kids(I'm just a big kid at heart and would rather play with the kids then have the bullshit fake conversions with the adult, ie, how's the weather? how is life? just bullshit you know) and ran around like crazy so that's some cardio right? The down fall is I had to have a shake cause all the had was pizza and cake. Plus the birthday party was over an hour away(anything for family right?) so I gave up the hope of night cardio as I'm just beat as we just got home. I also changed military presses to front presses cause they were bothering my shoulder. Also prematurely moved up weight on last two exercises because I got distracted with shit. By the way my daughter is feeling way better as evidenced by going to a birthday party. Anyway, tonight I may just have a single beer. LOL

 

[exerciseordie]

Looking good. Only thing I'd change is the bacon to turkey bacon. I love bacon and once contest season is over I will be smashing some for sure but it isn't real good on a cut lol. Other than that bro keep killing it and lifting>cardio everyday if you have to choose between the two!

Yeah, I didn't add it in last night because it happened after I wrote my log, but the wife and I got into a small fight and I have realized over the years to just walk away and think about things or something bad can get said. So I did do cardio last night at around 9:30pm for 30 mins on the elliptical and then YES?I HAD ONE SINGLE BEER IN MY FEED UP STATE.

Haha enjoy the beer brother! I will have one soon enough. I miss beer but I've never been a big drinker so it isn't too tough to not have

2/9/14(FAMILY DAY/ RELAX DAY)
8:00am 4 boiled eggs with one piece of bacon
12:00pm 13 ounce chicken with one hole avacado
2:30pm 1 cup of cottage cheese
5:30pm 2 cups with of roast beef

I had about one gallon of water today. We were invited over to the families house for dinner. I was at my father in laws mercy today for dinner because he didn't know I had my cheat meal yesterday so I had to eat what he made so I couldn't have much.I did come home and had a small snack not listed above though of almonds and lunch meat. Next week is deload week for lifting so the main lifts are light and at 5 reps for each set. Tomorrow I will tape and weigh myself. Hopefully there will be some lose.

 

[exerciseordie]

Keep at it buddy and let me know how the tape and scale treat you!

 

[the_predator]

Damn, forgot to let you guys know about injection. Npp shot into left bicep. No pip, I will update tomorrow if I have any issues

 

[exerciseordie]

Fucking bicep and triceps shots man....I'm going to have to get you to teach me your ways of putting needles into these places haha

 

[the_predator]

UPDATE: Now, I know dieting and loosing weight takes time, I get that, I have done this before, but right now I'm pissed. I'm not expecting miracles and I know people plateau, but when you start out a fat 290 pounds, the fat weight or even water should come off a little faster then it has been. Shit its been over a month now and I've only dropped 3 inchs and 7 pounds...WTF. Hell, in the past when I have dieted down I've lost 5-7 pounds in a weeks time eating less clean then I am now. This is probably the cleanest I've eaten my whole life and this past week I've only managed to drop 2 pounds(and that shit I'm rounding up from 1.6 on the scale) and no inches lost. So these last two weeks my gut has not changed inch-wise at all. Sorry for the rant guys, it's just that I'm busting my ass doing cardio twice a day(almost 6 days a week), lifting 4 days a week and eating pretty damn clean. Anyway, bicep injection from yesterday is 100% pain free still. I will be doing a hex quad shot today.

2/10/14(DELOAD WEEK)
5:30am 30 mins of cardio on elliptical
7:00am 8 boiled eggs no yolks
9:00am 42 gram no carb protein drink
11:00am 13 ounce chicken with 1/2 cup olives
12:30pm WORKOUT (5/3/1 DELOAD)
- Squat wu/135 1/245 2/265 3/285
- Leg Curls 3 sets of 10 reps with 70 pds
- Leg Ext 3 sets of 10 reps with 115 pds
1:00pm 2 cups cottage cheese with 1/2 cup almonds
3:30pm 2 pieces of sliced chicken, two cheddar sticks, 1/2 cup almonds
4:30pm 18 mins of HIIT on treadmill
6:30pm 12 ounce chicken with 4 ounce sausage and a bowl of salad with oil and vinegar dressing
8:30pm 42 gram no carb protein drink

I had close to two gallons of water today. My Npp shot from Sunday is fine. I pinned quad with hex and no PIP. This week is a DELOAD phase so I will be taking it easy with straight 5's on the main lifts and then just two other exercises for ten reps. JW pm'd me(thank you brother) and recommended HIIT. I use to do this all the time when I was in the military and use to do it 2-3 times a week when I was training right many, many months ago. I did realize HIIT is definetly going to have to be done in the afternoon or night because it sounds like a railroad track when I'm going. I went on the treadmill and went 30 seconds all out and 1:00min easy pace for 18mins. The all out was 9mph fast run on the treadmill, the easy pace was a semi fast walk at 3mph. My wife came in and thought we were having a earthquake. I guess a 280+pd man and a older treadmill don't mix(hey, you gotta do what you gotta do right?). My plan then is to do regular cardio upon waking and HIIT in the afternoon/evening.

 

[exerciseordie]

Keep at it bro and fuck those protein shakes! Post workout only for me. I want real food to stay full

I know brother. I already dropped all other shakes. The two are light 180 cal 42 grams of protein and 2 grams carbs. They are just nice before bed to prevent fullness and extra calories and good mid morning cause I'm always running around in the morning.

 

[the_predator]

Hex shot from yesterday is a little tender today. Bicep shot from Sunday is fine. I did another bicep shot today in right arm and no PIP at all. I will post more in my log later if there are changes.

6:00pm 14 ounces of chicken with a bowl of salad with balsamic dressing
9:00pm 42 gram no carb protein shake

I had about 2 gallons of water today. Quad shot from Monday is tender. I wonder if I knicked something? Npp shot in bicep today is great. It's funny cause I always get a little uneasy with biceps because my first ever bicep shot in early 2000 something, but they are actually fast becoming my easiest shot I do.

 

[exerciseordie]

Quad shots are a pain bro. Too many damn nerves in that area
