Fair call on the Red Bull. I knew it was an indulgence. I can swap it for an espresso.
Shows = my work... High intensity acrobatic/wushu/stunt shows 8 - 12 times a week. I work in a circus.
Where do I train? The circus I work at. The warmup area has equipment.
Pre show involves a quick intense cardio warmup + 45 min of kicks, jumps and martial arts weapons drills.
Post show usually 45min to 1 hour of lifting combined with core, fitball, and pilates exercises + stretching
I feel the banana's and berries keep my glycogen levels up during the shows. Last thing I want is to feel fatigued while going for a roundoff backsault over someone elses sword.
I think I have to be clear here that I'm not aiming to gain mass or even get BF down to single digits with this cycle.
My goals are not those of a bodybuilder though I tip my hat to the subcultures relentless determination and appreciate the advice of those more experienced with pushing the human form to new extremes.
My reason for the cycle is I enjoy the increased strength in my work. I recover quicker, can jump higher, DO enjoy lifting heavier. I feel strong and fast and enjoy bringing that to my character on the stage.
Life's too short to be average.
Cheers for your advice.
