So I think that if you run a cycle in the 8-12 rep range, your joint problems won't be worst than they are now... (minus the oils youre taking right now...). Thx for following, best of luck in your training, Redvision

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 3 | Training: Off day today Dosage: 1 morning 1 12:00PM 1 4:00PM 1 9:00PM 1 before bed Diet: 5108 calories, 404g protein, 1.75 gallon of water! ![]() Notes: First DOMs of X-Factor today... My triceps are sore as hell, as well as my biceps. My Whey intake remained the same at 7-8 servings/day, so even with a lot of BCAA's, I start to feel the soreness, which is pretty good ![]() Cold is slowly getting better Still have sore throat, but don't take anything (Nsaids) Sleep is still great Lethargy is a bit better these days. I think splitting my X-F in 4 or even 5 doses play a big role helping with lethargy... I'll be weighted in tomorrow morning! Redvision

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 3 | Just weighted in first thing in the morning at 228.5 today, so it's an increase of 2.5lbs since the beginning of my Log. I'm a bit leaner in my mid-section than at day 1, and also look fuller in chest/delts/traps, which is awesome! I went up to 229 after 10 days, but then leaned down to 226 in the days after. I was happy to see that my weight was back to 228!!! So far so good! I love X-F... ![]() Redvision

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 3 | Training: Went at the CEGEP of my town to train (other gym was closed). I managed to have a pretty good workout, even if the equipment there is shittty... All rusty Nautilus machines of the 80's, but I had to train there... I modified my workout a bit, since I talked with 2 bbers and both agreed that I have to work on my upper chest and side delts. I replaced flat bb press by incline bb press, so I'm doing incline db and incline bb and I added 3 sets of cable side lateral raises immediatly after my db lat raises. Hope it does the trick... Dosage: 1 softgel in the morning 2 softgels pre-training 1 softgel 5:00PM 1 softgel 10:00PM Diet: 5100 calories, 390 protein, 1.5 gallon of water Notes: Back to 228.5 today, which is awesome! Heavier and leaner than at day 1 ![]() Forearms are a bit sore today (from Hammer curls of 2 days ago I suppose) Lethargy is okay... Sleep still great Appetite still up like crazy (I'm ALWAYS hungry...) I'll be training Quads/Calves tomorrow at the gym, Have a good night everyone Redvision

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 3 | Training: I was supposed to train back/hamstrings today, but damn! My legs were so sore from yesterday, I had difficulty to do my 1st set of seated leg curl... I'll be doing em better later in the week. I started with 3 sets of Deadlift and got pretty pumped, kind of annoying back pump... (even if I take 2.5g taurine 3x/day) After, I did 3 sets of T-Bar rows, 3 sets of wide-grip pulldowns and 2 sets of db rows. I finished my training with 2 sets of 15reps of BB shrugs @ 315lbs with only 30 sec rest between sets, it was a very good workout. Dosage: 2 softgels mid-day 1 softgel before training 1 softgel 10:PM 1 softgel before bed Diet: 5392 calories, 406 protein, 114 fat, 1.75 gallon of water Notes: my Quads were damn sore from yesterday, I had difficulty to step out of my bed this morning! I love that feeling ![]() Nothing else to report today, I'll write my mid-cycle review tomorrow! Redvision (edited diet)

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 3 | X-Factor mid-cycle review @ 1250mg/day Bodyweight: Starting weight: 226 pounds mid-cycle weight: 229 pounds (+3lbs) Mirror: I look leaner in my mid-section, and fuller in my chest/delts/traps. ![]() Detailed review at day 20, in chronogical order: Increased appetite at day 2 (!!!) Noticeable lethargy at day 4 Began to feel warmer and sweat more at day 6 occasional numbness in my arms since day 6 Increased pumps at the end of week 1 Fuller look at day 7 Leaner in my mid-section since day 10 A bit of back acne since day 14 (oily skin) First DOMs at day 16 (triceps & biceps) DOMs became worst since day 19 No sleep issue so far! ![]() Bottom line, I burned ~2lbs of fat and gained 3lbm, which I'm pretty happy about! I also found that splitting my X-F intake in 3-4 doses really helps with lethargy. I think most of the gains are ahead, since DOMs just started 3 days ago so I really think X-F kicked in!
