When I started this workout I was so tired. I didn't even want to workout this morning. But I knew I would have a chance to workout again until Friday morning. It started out slow, but it turned out being a solid workout. This was the first time that I did this lower body workout, where I actually finished all 6 supersets of squats/deads.

Wow, it's been a while. Good thing I write everything down or I would easily forget everything. Everything is going strong. Great workouts. I need to get my diet in check. Body fat has stayed about the same, maybe down a little bit. Not too worried about that. I'm going to do a 4 week cruise to get that down.

I'm all finished up with Feast. I had my last two workouts this week.
New PRs!!!!
Decline Bench Static Hold: 15 sec x 365
Weighted Dip: 1 x BW + 80
Stiff-Legged Deadlift: 1 x 385
I had never maxed Stiff-Legged Deadlifts before. My max for a regular deadlift was 365, so I was pumped about this pull.
Now it's time for cruise. I'm going to cruise for a month. I need to get my conditioning in check. And my diet. Too many barbeques, haha.

I have a month's supply of AgeForce's Weight Loss patch. I'm going to start taking that tomorrow night. I'll let you guys know how that works.

I just started the Cruise Phase, and I'm adjusting the dosing of Synthagen. Here is how I took Synthagen throughout the Feast Phase:
Weeks 1-2:
Strength, Cardio Days: 7 Caps Pre, 7 Caps Postworkout
Off Days: 4-5 caps before 3 meals
Weeks 3-4:
Strength, Cardio Days: 7 Caps Preworkout, 3 Caps before 2 meals
Off Days: 3-4 caps before 3 meals
Weeks 5-6:
Strength, Cardio Days: 5-7 Caps Preworkout, 3 Caps before dinner
Off Days: 2-3 caps before 2-3 meals
When I first started Synthagen, it took me about 7-10 days to get the full affects. I had some DOMS the first week, but I had no signs of muscle soreness throughout the rest of Feast. Even as I hit PRs, I felt as if I could train the same body parts the next days. Over the last 2 weeks, my diet went to crap. I gained 2 lbs, but my body fat % stayed the same. I'll take that all day long.
So, my Synthagen dosing for the Cruise Phase is the following:
Strength, Cardio Days: 5 caps Preworkout, 2 caps before 2 meals
Off Day: 2-3 caps before 3 meals
I'm not following the typical cruise workouts. The workouts are going to be higher volume, but the 1RM % will be lower. I'll hit each body part once a week, except for abs. And I'll be doing 4-6 days of cardio.
