Day 41 of 152

I had my carb up yesterday and boy I felt sick! I was in bed at 7pm and woke today at 4 am ready to go huntin! My social life has gone to a near zero...but this is what I want right now and 0 beers since I started 41 days ago...Today was HST's 10 Rep, Day 3 routine. I had a great workout loved the leg press and leg ext. oh oh and the deadlift was awesome! No lifting till Tuesday, taking a two day off. Cardio is still going to be done!

* Pics are from today...I look and feel very bloated today from yesterday's 600g of carbs! WOW.

*Protein WAY to high due to the PWO meal and the tuna. Also, 16g of dextrose comes from the that PWO...Others are from eggs & cheese.

*Its 6 pm and I am tired as heck, been up since 3:30 am...I think I will wait it out till 10pm to get back into the swing of waking up at 5am instead. I am doing cardio tomorrow morning on empty stomach like always.

**DarkFalcon** · 03-11-2006, 10:21 PM

Great start so far bro. Judging from your your overall size (legs really stand out) your going to be a beast when you shed the rest of the fat!

Good luck, I'll be stopping in to cheer ya on! :yes:

Crobar · 03-11-2006, 10:31 PM

Thanks dude, we all need a little CHEERING here and there ya know...Yeah legs are by far my strongest bodypart & over-power my upper body. Hopefully I can get to my my goal of 10% bodyfat by July and can see which body part really need to get a hurtin. Its going to be a very very close one though. I might have to cut back on my carb ups...Not sure my current bodyfat but should be getting it checked soon.

Day 42 of 152

I had some decent sleep last night. Still had tons of moving around in bed in the middle of the night. Atleast I woke up at 6:30am instead of the crazy 3-4am shit I've been pulling...it can totally make you go insane! haha:crazy1: . I am sore all over today! Really now, never felt so sore from doing pullups...My upper back, bis, hams, and calves are totally done. I've not done anything different except for doing two sets of SLDLs. They are not part of the routine but just wanted to do em so perhaps the soreness come just from doing SLDLs.

I am doing cardio this morning!

Still a little bit too much protein but ratio is pretty good. Carbs are coming from the eggs and cheese, might want to hold back a bit. I am back into keto after doing cardio this morning in an empty stomach.

Well, its cardio for me tomorrow in the morning.

Crobar · 03-13-2006, 10:48 AM

Day 43 of 152

- Morning cardio like always; 45 minutes & mix of different intensity levels.
- Almost woke up late. I always set my alarm for 5 am but woke up at 4:47am but I am normally up at 4:30 or 4:20.
- Added half a protein shake for post cardio too.
- I am back into full blown keto. Need to watch out for the carbs from cheese!
- I need to take two days straight off HST. Since I started the routine its been on day lifting on day off. I did take a week after I got my maxes though. Been trying to get as many workouts as possible cause my gym membership is up in april. Oddly enough, I've seen some muscle growth!
- I love HST ; Need to add skullcruchers into next cycle, heavy cable press down hurts my joints.

Had an amazing workout! Looking more and more defined everyday I workout. Can notice small details on my calves and quads. Arms have been growing FAST since starting HST. I decided to try the 95lb bb curl ( I did 7 reps back when I tried to find my 10's maxes) well, I pulled it with ease. I upped my squat from 205lb x 10 to 225 x 12 ( threw in 2 extra reps for the pleasures of pain ). Last workout I deadlifted 225 x 10 but was it much much easier this time around. Pullups are getting easier as I drop fat.

Crobar · 03-17-2006, 02:58 PM

Oh boy....I can see traces of abs..muahaha..pics taken with flash on too..:cam:
