Day #13, 14, 15:
Alright, it has been 3-4 days and things are going fairly well. I weighed in this morning at 222, another pound down from 223 so my slow and steady progress approach is working. I am actually just about a week into IF (although I have to be honest...over the weekend I a weak moment at night, yes the infamous waking up from a deep sleep to find yourself in the kitchen with your nose in the fridge, and I gave in that evening and broke fast with some Greek Yogurt with Rocky Road protein mixed in...so good ) and besides my falter I have been doing really well on it. I do like the idea of not having to eat for some time (16 hours is what I have been doing) and then focus on eating within an 8 hour period...works really well. The only real problem I had was today in computer class...the last hour or so my brain shut off or something lol, but once I ate I was fine...blood sugar maybe, or all in my mind . Well as I stated in my last post, the past couple of days my energy levels have bottomed out, but I seem to have some sort of head cold/sinus thing going on so it may be just that...but I did not train at all over the weekend, Sunday was also a recuperation day for me, so I played a ton of Go Fish with my little girl . So...
Sunday (Day #13): OFF
Monday (Day #14): Legs (so I woke up at 4 am and went and did 50 minutes cardio @ 3.8/6%...fasted, and then went to Powerhouse Gym after I dropped my daughter off at school and hit legs...fasted!! This was interesting to say the least!)
Leg Extensions: 5 sets-1 warm up, 20/15/12/10/10 reps, 100/130/150/180/220 lbs.
Bench Squats (wide stance): 6 sets, 20/15/12/10/8/6 reps, 135/185/225/275/315/365 lbs.
Leg Press (feet together): 6 sets, 12/12/10/10/8/8 reps, 465/645/915/1005/1005/1005 lbs. (last 3 sets 45 second rest)
Hammer Strength 1 Leg Extensions: 4 sets, 10 reps, 45 lbs. (energy tanking hard! Hold and squeeze each rep...seeing stars)
Leg Curls: 4 sets, 20/12/12/10 reps, 90/105/120/135 lbs...toasted, no energy left...needed food!!
Once again my workout ended right around the time for my feed coming off of a 16 hour fast, I had a Muscle Replenisher shake, went and picked up my daughter from school, then came home and had...hey this is Deja Vu:
10 egg whites w/1 pack Low Sugar Instant Oatmeal & 2 Tbsp Peanut Butter (still was hungry) so
1 Homemade Rocky Road Protein Bar for dessert . I ate every 2.5 hours after that, mostly chicken and veggies, yogurt, shakes, not much carbs at all.
Tuesday...today (Day #15): Chest (47 min cardio 3.8 @ 6%...fasted before I hit chest)
DB Incline Press: 5 sets/1 warm up, (20/12/10/8/8 reps), 50/60/70/80/90 lbs
Incline Hammer Strength Press: 4 sets (10 reps...30 second rest), 180...give or take lbs
Exercise Ball DB Flyes: 4 sets (12/12/10/10), 45/55/60/65 lbs
Machine Press: 4 sets (12/10/10/8 reps), (100/120/140/150), SUPERSET w/
Seated Fly Machine: 4 sets (10 reps, slow negative), 140/150/160/170
I did not eat anything until 12 noon today, in the morning I consumed 11 grams bcaas every 3 hours, and took the rest of my scheduled supplements.
Now here is the interesting thing, and I already spoke with Dylan about this...I was driving home from the gym around 6:15 am and it was still dark, and all of the headlights were yellow...hmmm, S-4 sides? I have had some other times where my vision seemed a bit blurred while at home, but it could be tired, but Dylan and I are going to monitor it for another week and see if they subside, if not I will drop to the 5 on/2 off type of schedule...but like even right now, my vision is a bit blurry, but I am also tired of looking at a computer screen...and I am tired. So not sure but we will keep it posted. I'm not sure why my energy levels had dropped so bad over the weekend...IF, low carbs, head cold, all of the above! I don't want to say it is the S-4, although somebody else on another forum mentioned to me that he stopped taking his S-4 due to it depleted his energy levels so bad...so again people react to supplements and chems differently.
So I am looking leaner in my arms, veins are popping out in upper chest, traps, and shoulders...I feel tight, but I don't feel a drastic increase in strength or anything...lifts have been status quo for the most part. I am losing weight slowly so going in the right direction, will keep on doing what I am doing...I ordered some Unleashed today (2 bottles) so may incorporate that into the cycle for the last 4 weeks, I have HCGenerate and Forged Post Cycle for a mini PCT at the end too, so have plenty of things to switch up.
Man I am tired and need to hit the pillow to get up for what should be cardio only tomorrow...but it is hard going into the gym for me and not lifting...so we shall see how I feel in the morning after my N2 Amp/N2KTS cocktail!!!
Goodnight!!
