Regretting hitting shoulders yesterday.. but in my defense, today was suppose to be a lazy, only walking around doing inspections at job sites day... but a damn call came through and needed an immediate deadline on a job for one of our long time clients who’ve basically been the reason this company has grown the way it has... so.. daddy calls, job gets done lol..

Got into a verbal with my boss and I set some hard line boundaries about how Im going to be talked to moving forward. He can decide if he wants my help moving forward, or I can simply go to one of the other job offers I have received over the past year... but its more money.. and I cant make any more than I am currently without getting put back into a collectible status with the irs... then I would be making less than I am now lol... two more years to dance with the man and Im done with this circus... but until then.. gotta wait them out.

However, Im a man of many experiences and skills... I dont have to be a pipefitter..

Put in the long long day today and toasted my shoulders and upper back into submission... I started to worry I couldnt finish the work..

Decided to skip the gym tonight... leg day tomorrow anyway and Sundays been my new start of the workout week...

Glad to be home and done. Ready to relax some now.




Daily gratitude item:
Grateful to be able to be straight forward and honest about my feelings. Wrong or right. It offers opportunities to converse immediately with others and gives us the opportunity to either grow in mutual respect from it, or make decisions if its worth it to move forward with each other in our lives. At work, at home or at play. Its a great cleansing opportunity either way.

You don't even have to tell him you can just ask him questions

"What does this pipe taste like?"

"What does this pipe taste like?"

Lol my imagination had me doing just that... first step is to give him a chance... next time, he knows what my boundaries are and it will be of no surprise when the currently sleeping, but stirring demon comes out to teach him a thing or two about the old cowboymike and how things got handled back in the day...

[Cowboymike]

Starting to lower my calories back down again and keep the carbs lower. Time to try to drop more bf... I added Clen and will be adding primo... to my already non existent trt lol... Im just going through my stash a bit... surgery in April has me kind of scrambling, as I wont have enough time to clear out and then launch into surgery and the month and a half of no lifting time... all cardio... so Ill air out a few weeks prior to that and then jump into a cut as I will be able to only do cardio and be on a liquid diet...

Sorry to hear that brother! I try to catch up in your thread, but you’re more popular than the Bieber and it’s impossible! I’ll still try every weekend though ;0)

Lol I have been easing off my thread a bit and been just here and there. I been bitchy and disgruntled of late and saying things I shouldn't.

Shame on me.

Shame on me.

Lol but that’s the glory of a brotherhood... in life, in iron, in familiarities.... through the good and the bad. At our best and at our worst. We still got each other’s back and if shit ever goes down and needed, morherfuckers would be on a plane in no time...

So if people can’t take a little sauciness every now and again without being able to forgive and forget and move on, well, sometimes some brothers belong to a different tribe all together... cause those meant to ride together, are there no matter what. Thick n thin.

Well this concludes my girls whole birthday weekend lol.. luckily she went in for a 90 min massage today, courtesy of yours truly. So I was able to slip into the gym and get rid of some of these dirty calories Ive accrued... I will be back on track tomorrow and crushing it as usual.

I know Im suppose to be on cruise... but Ive decided to go forward with burning through my stash a bit... I mean, I built it to carry me through rough patches with finances right? Says the addict mind lol

So Im planning to just run until a couple weeks before surgery... then its 8 weeks (10 total) of downtime anyway where itll be test only cruise while I drink my liquid diet and be restricted to cardio only working out...

Ill be running clen 2 weeks on, 2 off until end of cycle as well as t4/3 to accompany the 6iu hgh per day.

I really wanted to order up some anavar, mast/tren and run a different cycle... but Im almost done paying off this last round of medical bills and I have to come up with 2500 between now and end of April to cover that surgery, not including the time off work... so thats going to get in the way of my plans... so in the stash I go lol...

Hope everyone had a good weekend!



Daily gratitude item:
Grateful for the quiet moments with my wife... its easy to go through the motions day to day and co-exist... but to really and truly just stop and soak her all in, makes me feel it deep within, the love I have for her... it makes me wonder how I can go days, sometimes even months, with out stopping to soak her all in... this is the very last thing I ever wish to take for granted... yet it seems to be so easy to do.. I gotta work on that.

Completely destroyed the work day... funny how when Im not micromanaged and running my own jobs with my own crew how extra productive we are and we get shit done... and at the end of the day, Im side by side with my guys loading up the truck putting in the work to help lighten the load overall... amazing how well people respond to people who also get their hands dirty. We all bust ass all day. We all bust ass to clean up and get out... I hope I get my own job and crew tomorrow and the boss can go chase the easy shit like he always does. Leave the real work to the real workers.

Definitely exhausted but I dug in my heals and got arms blasted tonight... made it through the whole routine. Felt good. Felt strong. My reps slow and clean. Very satisfied with tonights performance.

Another early day tomorrow. Cant wait to see whats in store for me lol..

Definitely you should!! They said we are suppose to do annual check ups to monitor it as it can turn at any point... not sure how much of that info was scare tactic.. but I googled esophagus cancer and it scared the shit out of me lol... so I’ll be doing it every December... hopefully there’ll be a frequent flyer deal as that craps not cheap... but neither is chemo

Well, plans changed and I had to work with my boss today... every effin email, every notice of the upcoming schedule (which is rare AF to get to know what I’m doing with any advanced noticed outside of the night before) all stated I was going to run this job... but he decided he needed to go to ensure it would get completed in a day... cause you know, sending a helper with me (would have been much cheaper) was out of the question lol... he started off the day with an attitude because I loaded my truck with all the material instead of his... mind you, I did not know he was going too... but luckily he let that shit go quick and we banged out the day without further headache or attitude...

Turned out to be a good day... a good lesson to me to not project and assume how someone’s going to act and then predetermine how my moods going to be... best to just let the story unfold in real time and leave the pathway to be revealed... without my negative energy infecting the outcome in anyway shape or form... I’ll work on this more.

Hit the gym, banged out chest.. I’ll be upping my weight soon. As my reps are and continue to be solid and clean. My delts are not getting engaged anymore. Which was a huge thing I was working on.

Felt good though and I’m glad I was able to get in there before rush hour.

I’m thinking of bumping the clen up... but I’m suspecting either it, or the creatine, is making it feel like I’m being stabbed in the abdomen all day... so I take the Imodium now every day and now I’m bloated AF lol... so I’m a bit hesitant... only another week and a day or so until I jump off though... so I’ll find out soon enough. Maybe I’ll just ride the wave I’m on until the last day... see if the stomach issues get better... if so, it’s the clen.. if not, I’ll try laying off the creatine and find a new blend...

Looks like all my BF hightailed it to my backside. It’s like my love handles are growing on my backside only lol... like wtf is this a muffin top?!? My legs are starting to get definition. About damn time lol.. veins showing up that weren’t there before... it’s funny to watch the body go through it’s phases... some really awkward looking phases, some clean cut and defined looking phases, lopsided and wonky, then bigger and more defined... rinse and repeat... So turning off the head as it’s currently in an awkward phase and I easily start tearing myself apart if I let it get going... so, ignore button on. Head down, get the work done. It’s a marathon. Eventually the work pays off. As it has been.

PS: I cracked open that jar of pickles this morning as I’m starting to get cramps and muscles are locking up again.. those hydration packets are kind of expensive lol.. but I’ll be better about using them... ANYWAY, I open the jar and just start chugging juice... only I started choking as small pieces were getting lodged in my throat, then the burning... it was the effin jalapeño jar. Not the pickles... note to self, buy different size jars for jalapeño and pickles lol...

Always read label first lol!

Sounds like something I would do ha!

[kelkel]

Definitely you should!! They said we are suppose to do annual check ups to monitor it as it can turn at any point... not sure how much of that info was scare tactic.. but I googled esophagus cancer and it scared the shit out of me lol... so I’ll be doing it every December... hopefully there’ll be a frequent flyer deal as that craps not cheap... but neither is chemo

I'm thinking of just injecting BPC-157 directly into my esophagus. Cut out the middle man, so to speak.

Just a progress pic... my body is going through some weird morphing awkward phase right now... but whatevs lol.. my back and legs are finally getting in line.. the calorie increase for 2 weeks and bloating from Imodium pills... really fluffing my belly out... I’m honestly not too worried, at the same time it fucks with my head... that upcoming 8 week liquid diet and only being able to do cardio, should destroy any fluff.. however, I’ll still increase/decrease caloric/carb intake in two week intervals along with clen.. until then.

On a side note, the pics suck. I wish it could capture what I’m seeing in the mirror.. but I can’t keep saying I’ll post progress pics and then be set back over a shitty camera lol... I need to have references to refer back too... believe it or not there’s veins in them there legs a popping lol.. I’m super excited about that tbh... my legs are my nemesis...

[Obs]

You made awesome progress horse!
You are a tough guy and I imagine you daughter is as good as they come.

Really impressed with your transformation!
Leaner every week and serious beef.

Goodnight man.

That’s some serious progress brother. You should be real proud!

[Cowboymike]

Thank you guys very much! I know how hard I work at this, that helps me shut my head up. Somewhere along the line I accepted that it truly is a marathon and I was then able to sit back and not be too hard on myself. It also allows me to actually see how amazing our bodies are and the phases they go through in the entire transformation process... I have a lot of loose skin from all that fat I had (42% BF when I started) as it use to be SO thick... now it’s fingers to grab it not two hands..

These forums and brothers like you all advising, pointing me in the right direction and just being you, motivates the hell out of me and makes me push as hard as I can.

I figure I have 8 1/2 years left to prepare to enter the 50 year old and older class... ;0) just to do it for fun

Worked with my boss today lol... my brain is a force to be reckoned with. If I allow it, it’ll run me over in negativity all day every day... nit picking flaws or reacting negatively to anything even that comes out of his mouth... how did I get here? I worked so hard for so many years to require my brain from hatred, anger, rage and negativity... I got to such a great place mentally. I’ve allowed years of not staying in practice to sacrifice all that hard work.

I’m sorry that I bitch about him publicly.. it’s really not my place to put shit out there about him. Especially if he’s not here to defend himself. In fact all that’s being stated is my own twisted and fucked up perception of the situations. It isn’t right. I’ll work on not doing that. He’s not a bad guy. He’s a very good employee. A model employee even. I would have killed to have a dude like him working for me when I ran my own companies... he’s honest, reliable, ethical and he never takes a second more than his 30min for lunch.

I know he means well when he’s acting in the ways that rub me wrong. I recognize my ego plays in my reaction towards him. He’s trying to teach in the best way he knows how. But I feel like I’m being micromanaged and I’m going to do shit my own way. Again. My ego takes the driver seat. If instead I can just remind myself he’s actually just trying to be a good boss, the best way he knows how, then maybe I can start not taking everything so damn personal.. maybe I’m the control freak. Maybe I’m mad because I want to run my own show... I can be such a manic.. I often wonder if I’m bipolar or partially so... I’m so extreme. One way or the other. Black or white. No grey. No middle ground. All or nothing. Fight or die.... dramatic... all character flaws I’ve been saved from before... going to have to work harder at returning back to that place.

Workweek was indeed brutal. I’m exhausted and extremely deflated lol. I will skip the gym tonight, to be ready for legs tomorrow. Then I’ll take Sunday off so I can have a fully rested upper body. I’m going to go ahead and try for new PRs on arms...

Still trying to get my girl to take my damn pictures... not sure why she is blowing me off...


Daily gratitude item:
Grateful to speak to my sister tonight... it’s been way to many years... I’m grateful I was able to set aside my ego, pride and judgement.. to let her speak and be herself. I found it to be interesting and actually quite nice... who the fuck am I to judge anyone? Setting all that aside, I was able to feel a connection to my sibling. I have 13 of them whom I don’t even talk to... so it was a nice change to feel connected to blood for once.

Looks like that primo and NPP has snuck up on my ass... I can almost sit cups on top of my new swollen booty shelves happening. Good news is they at least follow the muscle pattern and just look like I have a built upper booty lol. A bit of PIP finally, just a reminder letting me know to respect it.

Day 235

No gym, no macro log, same routine vitamins and supps.. morning was hgh, t4/3, AI... are fairly decent today, around 2200 calories to my best guesstimating.

Sorry I didn’t expect my day to get away from me like it did. But it did.. got to get up in a few hours to work. If it doesn’t snow that is. If it does, back to bed. I doubt it will though... anyway, gotta get showered and in bed...


Hope y’all had a good weekend!


Grateful for good friends, good food and making it home safe tonight!
