Approved Log Bulking Cycle - with Sassy’s Pharmaceuticals

[SteveMobsterG]

Work has, in the past, been an absolute bitch. Pre-covid I'd do a 12 hour shift (15+ by the time I got home) and I'd try to be in bed an hour after getting home. Then I'd be ok to workout the next day

Week 13 Update.

Good evening EF brothers,

This week started out strong, with some short and easier days at work - which played out well with my training.

This was not the case for the latter half of the week, with long, hard days at work and my sleep also suffered. This all took a toll on me mentally more than physically and I struggled abit, but I showed up nonetheless and got it done.

@ChewedSleek there’s a lot of good training in this update. I really like the volume you’re pushing it. You can definitely tell.

Showing up is half the battle

 

[ChewedSleek]

Work has, in the past, been an absolute bitch. Pre-covid I'd do a 12 hour shift (15+ by the time I got home) and I'd try to be in bed an hour after getting home. Then I'd be ok to workout the next day

When I was a young, single and free man, I would come home from big days, shower, eat in bed and go straight to sleep. I wish I could do the same these days, but I got two young kids now. So long gone are the days of just resting when I’m exhausted hahaha

Midweek 14 update:

Slow start to the week this week. My young fella has gotten sick, so he’s been in our bed and waking up coughing and crying alot. So I didn’t get to train Monday or Tuesday. However, from Wednesday I have been more than making up for it and smashing my workouts, strength is still going up, despite my disrupted sleep schedule and some long days at work this week.

My weight seems to be plateauing again. I will give it another week and if it isn’t climbing again, I will increase carbs.
