Could be spelling his name wrong. Roland. Used to compete, now is on that stupid show Son of a Beach.

I ended up spending most of my time hanging out with the Avant Labs boys and worked the booth part of the time.

Reflections: Another nice week in the recomp business. Subjectively, I am looking bigger than I ever have before, and many people are telling me this, regularly.


MONDAY -- Benched 435 this morning at a BW of 220. 2 x BW has always been a personal goal. Next time.

Previous best for me was at the end of my bulk 13 - 14 weeks ago when I benched 420 at a BW of 235. More confirmation that this is a recomp, and not a "cut."

This mini bulk has been fun, and also quite interesting. Eating as much fiber cereal, fruits, veggies, and lean protein I want, has proved difficult for me to gain weight. Interesting.

So, cycle over, which is welcome actually. Covering oneself in gel 2x per day gets tiresome, plus it really raises bodytemp.

For post cycle recovery, I am adding in E, FL7, keeping kcals high and using the local gel on my arms and left calf. Each upper arm, and calf gets 2 squirts. Each squirt contains 17 mg 3a and 22 mg of 1T; which means each bi and each tri gets that twice daily, and the left calf gets double that twice daily. I have been unable to break the 18 inch barrier on my arm, and my left calf is significantly smaller than my right, so we shall see how this plays out.

Current measurements are:

Date.....BW....R. Arm...L. Arm....L. Calf....R. Calf
6/2??????220....17 7/8??????.18...........16 ¼???..16 ¾

Welcome back to your journal. Your one over there is awesome though.

Was the 1T in the cycle you were using? because I didn't think FL7 has that in it, or have you added it?

Welcome back though, awesome gains around. What kinda cut are you planning after your cycle recovery?

 

[Twin Peak]

1T was a different gel.

Well, I am neither cutting nor bulking, but I switch from week to week as to what my emphasis is on.

 

[dvlmn666]

So your going by more of an instinct type of eating?

I'm thinking about getting some of the FL7. And gonna order the Liptigen II once I get some money saved up.

Mostly I am cycling my carbs, somedays for a few days or a week or more. It is planned out, but the plan changes regularly. I have no distinct goal to cut, or gain, just seeking both.

I'd like to be around 12% 10 weeks from the Olympia, then I will officially cut, to hit 5-6% or so.

I am a fan of FL7 and am stoked for my first shipment of LG II.

Where'd you go?

 

[Twin Peak]

Well, I don't update this regularly, and I didn't know anyone was paying attention.

I do keep my journal in a word doc, so I'll copy todays entry:

Reflections: this was a good week. I got needed rest, which actually made me stronger (see below). Dropped a few pounds, and got a tad leaner (13%ish). Indeed, this is really as lean as I need to/want to be, long term, except for "special occasions.". Looking forward to this mass phase now.

MONDAY -- well, it officially begins today: the Nor cycle, the mass feeding, vendetta etc. Interestingly, today I was significantly stronger than 2 weeks ago. This could be due to a variety of factors including: the Nor, the mass feeding weekend, vendetta, the layoff (though I'd expect to be weaker at first).

Don't know if I have explained my current training, but it is a pretty basic EDT. Today was chest and bis, and as I said, I was quite pleased with strength. Example, the first 20 minute session was incline barbell and straight bar curls. Working weight was 315 and 155 respectively. While two weeks ago I got 26 reps of each, in twenty minutes, this time I got 28 reps. And first sets were much stronger. My next session was flat benches and seated dumbbell curls. Two weeks ago I used 325 and 50s and got 20 and 30 reps respectively. Today, I used 325 and 55s and got 29 and 33 reps, a HUGE improvement. I was well pleased. In fact, I got a second wind halfway into this second session, and I think the only thing I can attribute that to is Vendetta. Of course, if it is Vendetta, I should notice this much more often.

Speaking of, Vendetta is an orange flavor. Its not nearly as palatable as ICE, which I enjoy. You kind of need to slam down V. Its like a bad tang. I assume that Xtreme will work on the flavoring as that is their specialty, but there just may be little you can do for it.

I tried posting a pic, but it won't let me, as its too large. So here is a link to my home board -- tehse were taken on Fri:

[J'Bo]

Well i started reading your journal from page one and then i realized its 19 bloody pages long. Like the entries however i get lost in the absc gtm training talk.

 

[Twin Peak]

"the absc gtm"

Huh?

 

[J'Bo]

huh is exactely what i said PST, HST, GST, HIIT, ABC, 123 training its all confusing

 

[Twin Peak]

LMAO. Typically its explained.

 

[J'Bo]

so where are the nudies you promised BF? i searched the entire journal and couldnt find them....nice picture of you in pumps though...pink is your color

 

[Eggs]

Just looked at your pics... looking good bro.

bf% has dropped nicely, along with that increase in lbm. Good job.

Oh, and a tip on the pics... they look even better when taken in natural light Of course, that might mean going outside and scaring the neighbors for a few minutes, but hey... a couple beers and they'll recoup from the shock. If not, give um your most muscular, heh.

 

[J'Bo]

or show them the tattoo of your grandma on your butt cheek

 

[Twin Peak]

Thanks eggs. Yeah, natural light aint gonna happen. If you mean they are dark thats the way the got posted, not taken.

Also lamp lighting, when done right, is better. I just missed it this time.

J'bo. Not sure what you are talking about at all, to be honest. If you'd like to see updat pics I posted a link above, which Eggs found.

 

[Twin Peak]

J'bo, are you drunk?

 

[J'Bo]

sorry TP just having a moment. My ? about the nudies...it was a joke....and the thang about the tattoo it was also a joke....no i dont drink...however i had a pizza last night and only 4 hours sleep
