SuperDMZ/Halo Extreme on The Fat One

[fatsopower]

Squats - volume day

short leg session - but wore out and pumped

Squats
225x10
315 - 5x10
275 - 5x10

The SuperD pump was in full effect, but I decided to do some leg presses anyhow - really tough squeezing into the leg press with hammies all pumped!

Leg Presses - 2 count pause on bottom
12 total plates x15
14 total plates x15
16 total plates x15
18 total plates x15 paused, plus 15 regular reps

Single Leg Presses - really hate these, so I decided to do some

6 plates - x20, x25, x20


and that was enough for me

Nice man. Keep it up! So how much longer on cycle are you? What's your weight at? Are you taking before and after photos? Not for us but for yourself. Or even measurements? Have you done a bf% check?

I am curious to know how and what your diet has been like. I read what kind of diet youre on but Im wondering if you can give some examples of meals.

I have one more week of SuperDmz, and then I'll decide whether to stick with HaloExt for another 2 weeks , or just switch to pct. (probably the latter - don't want to push it the first "cycle"). I have photos from the start and I will take more at the end. I've gained a serious amount of weight - some of it being water, which I dropped a lot of after kicking in formeron at the end of week 2.

my diet is exactly the same every day - except for one "cheat" meal a week - whey and healthy oils till after my workout; then whey with 2 cups of whole grain carbs - then a high carb/ lean protein meal later on - which I usually split into 2. all carbs are complex - no simple carbs are sugars at all except for a half a cup or so of raisins or cranberries post workout.

I'm feeling stronger and I see clear noticeable differences in muscle appearance, which is crazy after only 3 weeks!

I appreciate you stopping by.

some Lats

usually a recovery day - meaning some abs and cardio - but I've been working a little extra on the "pull up" muscles, so I can stop feeling like such a wuss!

All movements were done highly controlled and painfully sloooow, with a real good stretch.

Reverse PecDec
5x10

Pull Ups - just negatives
5x10

Assisted Pull Ups
3x10

Cable Pull Downs - no lean
3x10

Plate Loaded Iso Pull Downs
3x15

Straight Arm Press Downs
3x20

and that was enough

Change in stack

I wussed out and dropped 1 SuperDmz yesterday- what can I say, this stuff is STRONG! I was walking around all day with insane pumps and the scale was edging up constantly. I've knocked out some water weight but my strength and control is still way higher than when I started. I decided to go on pct after this week - enough for my first cycle back. Btw, I can unequivocally state that this stuff is the real deal! However, next time (yes, I'm planning next time already ) I'm gonna run just straight Halo Ext for a while just to see what happens - and I think I might be able to handle it better, if not even longer....

Cardio and Stuff

"Recovery day" - cardio, abs, dips, and some pull ups - sort of full body light session. Worked hard, but didn't really push it. Back to "real" training tomorrow.

Have been sticking to my diet and training - but I haven't logged because I've been on the road, so I've been basically sticking to pushups (straight/incline/decline), pull up negatives, bw rows, step ups (very difficult on a motel bed!), etc - and throwing in some isometrics and odd object lifts; nothing too interesting. I'm slowly peeling the bloat I gained - I definitely gained strength on cycle and it seems that I lost some fat - will have a better idea after pct.

It had been scary for a bit - I actually hit 360lbs after starting at about 321lbs - but I am now back to 338.
I might actually get to hit a gym tomorrow - so I'll probably go for a lighter full body session...

 

[fatsopower]

training in the Smith - full body

at 337lbs - I think that I'm done with the water weight and should hold on to some muscle now while continuing to try to cut some fat - gym today was a MADHOUSE so I "scheduled" myself into the Smith machine for almost all of the session (don't you hate when people do that?).

Smith

• bench
• close grip bench
• incline bench
• seated press
• bent over rows
• shrugs
• squats

all for 5x10

• assisted pull ups - 5x10
• preachers - 5x10

and that about covered it. I don't like using the Smith much because it locks me into it's path - but you do what you gotta do, and it was definitely a full body session.
