Hey guys,
Been lifting on and off for about 15years. Mountain bike on the weekends for cardio. Goal will be to try to put on 8-9 lbs. This is my first run so if I'm doing things wrong feel free to jump in and correct me. Chatted to Rob a few times via email with all sorts of questions and just gotta say thanks to him for his amazing response.
Age: 45
Weight: 176
Goal: 185
Waking pulse rate: 64
Supps:
cbol creatine
E-Bol
Mass Pro Vanilla Whey
All ingredients for the formula
Started famine yesterday:
Workout:
2 sets of hack squat warmups
Hack squat 270 x 7 X 8 X 7
Seated cable row 170 x 6; 200 X 6 X 6
2 min rest
2 light sets of barbell curls as warmups
Barbell curl 100 X 7
Inclined dumbell curls 40 X 6
Preacher curls 100 X 7
Workout wasnt too bad but did sweat alot and was pretty tired at the end.
Keeping calories at 1450 thru famine will be hard since I normally eat twice that amount; but I will give it my best shot.

Quick question: Getting ready for first feast workout in a few days, am I suppose to do 2 EDT blocks or just 1?

Hey man, great question and welcome aboard!!
The first workout, if memory serves is upper body. Here, you want to perform 2 EDT Blocks.
REASON: Given it's upper body and calls upon LESS muscle mass than lower, you're afforded the luxury or being able to perform/be able to recover from more work.
On lower body days, the combination of a static hold + 2 compounds is MORE than enough, to deliver the goods. To keep digging a hole after that requirement is satisfied... is risking over-training for most!
Hope that helps!!!

Fantastic, man!!!
PR's are a regular occurrence here, though many still doubt. OK by me, more for us!!
When I created Gainsville, nobody believed it was a place you could stay.
Well, they need to talk to the mayor (a.k.a. Big.Jazalyri)... because he's been living there quite awhile, and shows no signs of leaving...
So happy for you man, you don't even know!!!
