I actually started famine on Monday May 2nd. So here is a little background. I am 28 years old, weighed in at 168lbs at 6.0' tall. Yes I am lanky(blame my parents).
I have been working out 4 days a week for the last 2-3 months. I managed to gain 3lbs of lean muscle in that time, not to mention adding at least an inch to all measurements.
Current Stats:
Height: 6.0'
weight: 168lbs
Body fat: est. 10%
Hips: 33"
Waist: 32"
Chest: 40"
Shoulders: 47.5"
Biceps: L=14" R=13.5"
Quads: L=23" R=23"
Calfs: 14"
Bench Press 1rm: 165lbs
Box squats 1rm: 225lbs
I have a weaker upper body due to being a goalie(all legs) not to mention I walk 10miles a day with 35lbs of weight(letter carrier with Canada Post).
My goal is to add 20-30lbs of weight to my main lifts through GLP1 and GLP2.
Let the games begin!
Where is that train?

Alright, a little more background. I started famine the day after I got back from a boys trip to Vegas. Slept for 14 hours which really helped in not eating. Famine was not as hard as I thought. I lost 4.5lbs and the old heart rate jumped up 8 beats.
The eating has begun! I have found that I love protein. I can't wait to get back in the gym.
The stack I will be using is as follows:
Adaptogen N
White flood pre-workout
Xtend with karbolyn intra workout
Kre-Anabolyn
Whey protein with Karbolyn post workout
Casein protein before bed
Orange Triad multi vitamin
omega 3,6,9 caps.
Meeting the train tomorrow, HIT workout #1.

Yes, I did all the bridge workouts, just lazy in posting. I really didn't find them to be much more difficult then my previous workouts. Perhaps I need to push myself a little more.
I am looking forward to the KA. Off to the gym for workout number one.
This I will post about.
Cheers.

Feast H.I.T workout #1.
Bench Press: 125/10. I need to add some serious weight as this was a cake walk. Thought I was being sane as my max was around 165.
Dumbbell pullovers: 40/8
E.D.T. #1
Incline dumbbell press: 40lbs- 6,6,6,6,8,8,6
T-bar rows: 70lbs- 6,6,6,6,8,8,6
92reps in 17min.
Box squat: 185/8

Romanian Deadlifts: 125lbs- 6,6,6,6,6,6,6
84 reps in 17min.
This workout felt awesome. It was good to be back in the gym. I think I need to add some more weight. I keep underestimating my strength. Looking forward to workout 2.

Feast H.I.T workout #2.
Bench Press: 145/5 ([/b]PR)
Dumbbell Pullovers: 50/6
E.D.T #1
Incline DB Press: 50lbs- 6,6,6,6,6,6,6.
T-Bar Row: 90lbs- 6,6,6,6,6,6,6.
84 reps in 17min.
Box squat: 195/5. (PR at this depth)
SLDL: 135/7
E.D.T #2
Leg Extensions: 115lbs- 6,6,6,6,8,8,8.
Lying Leg Curls: 90lbs- 6,6,6,6,8,8,8.
96 reps in 17min.
This was another great workout. Loving this program so far. Need to add more weight to my EDT's I think. Not sure how many reps I should be aiming for. I figure either shorten the rest or up the weight once I reach 90+ reps.
Weight today was 167.5 which is only up 1.5lbs from the end of famine.
I am not worried. Just need to eat more I guess. [/b]
Finally time for a post.

Alright, It has been a few days since my last post. I was out of town teaching a motorcycle racing school. Man it feels good to be back on a bike!
My weight after the weekend was up to 169.5lbs. Tuesday I was at 170.5lbs, which is where I was at, at the start of famine. This is also probably the heaviest I have been until I took my weight today. 171lbs as of Wednesday.
Feast H.I.T workout #3
Bench Press: 155lbs/3reps. PR
DB Pullovers: 50lbs/5reps
E.D.T #1

Single Arm Rows: 50lbs- 6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6
96 reps in 17 mins. 1 min break between sets.
Box Squats: 210lbs/3reps. PR
SLDL: 185lbs/3reps.
E.D.T #2
Leg Press: 410lbs- 6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6
straight Leg Deadlift: 135lbs- 6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6
96 reps in 15min. 1 min breaks. Had to stop due to knee pain.
I was tired from moving boulders around in my backyard, however I felt great in this workout. The strength is mind boggling. I can't believe how amazing the EDT's are. Love it!
Woke up on Wednesday with some slight knee pain. Thursday morning I had severe knee pain, and have pulled my knee cap out of alignment. I have to take a couple days off before my next workout. Hope this heels fast, the workouts are addicting.

Every time I work out I am amazed at this program. I had a partially dislocated patella(knee cap), and could not get to the gym for 6 days. Went to the gym today and had a great workout.
I am lagging behind in my workouts as injuries and time have been an issue.
Today was deload before 1RM on Wednesday.
Bench Press: 145lbs/6reps.
DB pullovers: 55lbs/6reps.
E.D.T #1
Incline DB Press: 55lbs per DB- 6,6,6,6,6,6,6
T-Bar Row: 100lbs- 6,6,6,6,6,6,6
84 reps in 17 mins.
No real leg work as knee is still sore.
Looking forward to max on Wednesday as my bench feels stronger on every workout.

Electric blue T + E.D.T's = 20lbs on my bench.
This program is full of WIN!!.
Did my bench max today and was amazed that I pushed 185lbs for 1.5 reps. second rep had a slight pinch of help from my spotter.
Thats a 20lb increase from start. Not too bad. Also a huge PR.
I didn't do squats as my knee was feeling a little sore on the warm up squats.
Weight is still at 170 which is okay for now. I hope to see some size gains soon.
Off to the race track this weekend to race motorcycles.

All aboard!! Train to Gainsville, leaves the station Day 1 of Feast!!
Now take heed; I see where you're an ectomorph. As such, take great care to keep tabs on Famine/weight lost and resting heart rate, amongst other objective/subjective variables.
There is a VERY high likelihood, you will NOT require workout #3. And remember.... HEALTH FIRST - at ALL times!! Discontinue - in the event you feel sick, off or just "not right".
Otherwise, let the games begin!!
