Jesse's 3rd Run

Well I'm definitely not an ecto. But would you recomend taking maybe half a scoop of pure karabolyn on workout days?

YES, and more depending upon tolerance.

Hope that helps...

You always do man. I'm also thinking of extending the amount of workouts during cruise. Just to get a bit more out of it.

Don't worry about this, perfectly natural and 2 fold strategy to address:

1. Take an extra 5min. between your heaviest sets

2. Insert just ONE extra rest day, particularly between now and "peak" day...


Hope that helps...

Congrats man! A gain is a gain...

Do me ONE favor please...

Take 3 full days off. Mentally rehearse your new 1RM (+10 or 15lbs) at LEAST, 3x/day. At least once prior to bedtime. Also, bump up your carb/sodium intake during these 3 days.

Now, whatever rest intervals you were taking before your heavy sets, DOUBLE that. Prior to your very last max attempt, take AT LEAST 15 min prior to it.

In other words, try this workout ONE MORE TIME.

What the mind can conceive, the body will achieve...

I suppose I could give it another shot this sunday. Thing is I'm supposed to start up keto tomorrow since I just finished my last leg workout (updates below).
