NPC 2nd year countdown

[charger69]

No workout tonight. I went and gave blood.
The nurse goes, “Dude, you have some killer veins”. She presses on the vein just above the fore arm and says, “look, I can make it jump in your bicep”. LOL
Then she sticks me and says, “oh no, it squirted all over your shirt. It looks like you were in a war zone. “
At least I got some comic relief . I may need to replace the shirt though.
I had a reading of 15.3 so the high tren does not seem to be affecting my readings that much.
Note: before the cycle I was anemic.

her next move was probably to try and drain the main vein if you know what I mean

She wants you Charger

Only one workout today. Day off of work and traveling in the afternoon.
Leg day. I had limited time so I did a Cape workout- 50 minutes, but little rest.
I’m paying for it now. Luckily, I have a big truck so I could stretch during the trip.
My legs are killing me.
Tomorrow morning fasted cardio and workout immediately following. I forgot to bring my cooked egg whites with me.

50 min? That’s 2 Cape workouts.

[Charlie67]

I might have missed it, but did you try the lat injections? I do bi's a lot, never tri's.

[Charlie67]

Also, with all that Tren , ephedrine, and caffeine, what's your sleep like?

[charger69]

I never did do lats..... yet. I will at least try it.
I do not sleep enough, but that is because I have a busy schedule.
Once I hit the bed, I’m out.
I usually go to bed around 10:30-11 and I’m up at 3.

When I'm on Tren , I sleep from about 10-11:15, then I'm up until about 4, sleep until 5.... Maybe I just need to be busier too, lol

Regarding lat injections...I'm not sure I can reach mine in a comfortable enough way. Not that I'm big, I just lack any flexibility. It'll be interesting to here about it.

[GearHeaded]

if you can put deodorant on (which I'm sure you guys all do) then you can pin your lats . its super easy and they hold a lot of volume, 3cc each no problem.

best way to do it (for right lat example) is to take your right arm and grab your left shoulder and pull super tight. your right lat is then fully exposed and lightly contracted and you can easily reach with your left arm and pin it (you can do this looking in a mirror too)

without having lats in my injection rotation, I'd probably not of been comfortable doing some of my short ester high dose experiments I've done. lats are super beneficial to have in there Imo.
and having just a slight bit of PIP in the lats when doing a back day workout, can really help with the mind muscle connection.

when I pin Tren suspension, which has quite a bit of bite to it, I generally pin in the Lats as the lats deal with PIP better then other muscle groups in that its not debilitating at all

[Obs]

I thought I couldnt reach until doing it the way gh described.

I promise everyone here is more flexible than me.
I break into a sweat putting my belt on.

yep, lats no problem even for Roelly Winklar if you do it right (think about it guys, your lats are visible right in front of your face looking in the mirror, you've been hitting that area ever since you started using deodorant) rear delts and even gluts , thats another story

[GearHeaded]

again, if you can put deodorant on you can pin lats

[charger69]

Today, I will change the theme a little.
I needed a reboot. Constantly thinking about work, my contest prep, my diet, life’s issues, etc, etc. has me so involved, I am forgetting to live. I have also been very sentimental for some reason.
I went to church today by myself. It was relaxing. The only thing is that it was in Spanish and I don’t know all of the words in Spanish for sayings . LOL
Note to self: do t do legs the day before church. Standing, sitting, and kneeling were challenging.
I am very happy with my abs progression. The loose skin is tighter than last year. Unfortunately, my legs are not as cut as last year, but I still have 4 weeks. Things should start changing when I start Halo.
I also want to make the statement that I do not recommend that people follow my cycle. I am competing and take things I would not recommend. Halo is super harsh on the liver.
I need to practice posing at least 1/2 hour a day. I’m not hitting them the way I need to.

I also realized that the tren was sneaking around on me and getting me worked up without me realizing it. Poor wifey. LOL

I just wanted to remind you cape was right. Not everyone can do what you do.
You know how the bike gangs have their 1% or whatever it it. That’s what I’m gonna start saying about you. You’re a 1%er because hardly anyone can do what you do. I know we joke around with each other a lot but if you don’t know it already it really impresses me what you can do and the sacrifices you make.
You’re a good dude too. I guess lol.

Well thank you!!
There is nothing special about me. I learned in life that no one is going to give you anything. If you want it, You need to work for it. That is all I am doing.
Although it does feel nice when you go to the gym and the receptionist says that they have never seen anyone as dedicated as you.
I am where I am because of everyone on the forum. I have learned so much through the people and my own experiences.
A lot of this is also mental- which most people take for granted. The moral support gets me back on the horse when I’m down.

Nope...

She is playing mind games again.
A good backand and painful anal to remind her who's p****y that is.

[Charlie67]

if you can put deodorant on (which I'm sure you guys all do) then you can pin your lats .

You're so presumptuous GH

I'm totally going to try to pin lats.

Sounds like an excellent Sunday. Your truly motivational charger.

Started the week refreshed. The “reboot” yesterday worked. Great workout this morning- bi’s and tris. Ended with some BFR.
Today I am going to shoot for 2 gallons of water. I need to start loading with water.
I am also going to be coached up to the show. Although there will not be much they can do about the muscle, they can play a big role in the skin tightenrss and water retention.
This is probably the most positive that I have been in awhile.

I am coming from being an overweight person. I never forget where I came from.

My gratitude is out there to everyone that has helped me along the way. That is just about everyone on the forum. I learn from newbies, vets, experienced and inexperienced individuals. Every single year I have that one or two ah-hah moment that changes things. This year it looks like the ah-hah is what not to mix. LOL

I would like to ask everyone that reads this..... if you see someone at the gym putting in an effort to improve- no matter what physique (short, fat, big, small)- give them a thumbs up. Such a small gesture means so much to them!

Work on mandatories. It's all won or lost there. Free posing doesn't really mean anything anymore.

It’s been a busy week. Sitting in the cardiologist office.
No ephedrine this morning.
I am a little anxious and a little nervous about the comp prep. I am entering into unchartered territory in this prep, but I have a coach that knows what he is doing. I just need to roll with it because I do not know how I will react.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Charlie67]

Out of curiosity, what's new with this prep compared to your last one?

[charger69]

I am going to go the last week at maintenance calories. I would lose 5-10 lbs the last week.
All my cutting is to be done a week before. I know it will not make me look as flat, but I also think that I could have done things differently coming up to this if I knew.
I also heavily relied on diuretics. This way, hopefully not so much.
Try maintaining a pose and smiling with one kick ass cramp on stage. It sucks!

I’m not sure if the trip to the cardiologist was beneficial or not. Fucking testing, testing, and more fucking testing.
Dr wants me to start using aspirin (325mg) and keeping blood pressure readings daily.
I need a blood test, an echocardiogram and a 30 day event monitor.
I am concerned with the event monitor because I know that I have sleep apnea. That is going to start a new series of tests.

Don’t they understand that I’m trying to compete??? LOL

All this and today’s testing showed no irregular rhythm. Get off the T3, clen and ephedrine and no issues. LOL

I'd try to hold out till the comp is over and you're back to normal. Sort of.

But I don't see where you wrote that they tested anything?? Did they run any tests? I've heard that tests are important... You should tell them to run some fucking tests.

[Obs]

Last time they wanted to run tests on me I had to leave. The doctor said "I can't work on this man because he is not a man... He is a fucking beast! Someone get this animal to the vet."

I pissed on the reception desk and fucked two nurses on the way out.

I am struggling. Life is throwing things at me. Last night I was not able to get my second workout in. This further aggravates the situation because then I allow the tren to get me further pissed. It is what it is.
I guess I just need to be a little more flexible and just take what comes and then adjust accordingly. I have a full day ahead of me. First is the gym, then I’ll go to work.
It would be nice if time could stop for 4 hours and let me catch up.

Health wise, I feel good but my knees seem to be hurting a little and I’m not even on Winnie. LOL

I have a tendency to look better in the afternoons than the mornings. I know my legs are going to be shot today after the workout.

I also officially signed up for the comp yesterday. These things are freaking expensive. NPC card- $150, each category- $175.

Well gotta get in motion and hopefully finish the day early.

Take it as it comes. I havent been to the gym in quite a while. I am hurting so bad I can't sleep. If I wasnt on a gram of deca I would not be able to get out of bed.
I have a lot of trees to take down and a kill fast mindset, but I am turning it off and reducing speed before I kill myself. I cant provide for my baby if I am in pieces.
It will go the way it does. Dont overextend yourself.
Your mind works like mine and you will bring about the end of days if you don't chill out a little.
I ain't no "whatever man" kinda guy, but it is what it is.

Well, Charger is going on a rant. I would like to say sorry before I begin. LOL
These f’ing Dr’s - at least in CA. They want to test the fuck out of you. ..... and then give it to you good. I guess you are supposed to like it .
I went to the ER because I couldn’t pee. I sat around the whole day waiting to be attended to. They finally got to me around 2:30 pm.
I get the bill....... my portion to pay is approx $3500- wtf . They did urine and blood tests and hooked me up to see my heart . Luckily, I refused the additional testing and blood thinners. Thank God I didn’t need a catheter.
I do know my prostrate is OK and the follow up with the urologist ( I got it right this time) said I am good to go.
The cardiologist, on the other hand, did not find any afib, but wants me to do an ECG, blood tests, possibly put me on BP meds, and a 30 day monitor. The Dr said they are getting Moore aggressive with bp and hypertension is now considered if you are above 120.
The 30 day monitor is going to expose sleep apnea which will be more treatments.

I really believe that the T3 caused the afib. I think that I may go for bloods and the ECG (ultrasound) just for precautionary purposes. If those 2 come out OK, then I’m stopping.

This shit really threw a monkey wrench into my contest prep and finances. I will survive because that is what I do, but things just keep getting more and more difficult.

Ok enough ranting. I just get frustrated. The good thing is the desire to rant may decline because I’m going to lower my tren . LOL

I did legs yesterday and rode a bike (too small for me) about 4 miles. My legs were killing me. I couldn’t extend them while riding. I couldn’t wait to get off the bike.
I’m going to stop ephedrine...... at least try. LOL. It’s hard getting up at 3 am to go and workout without having ephedrine to give you that little kick in the butt. LOL

As always, I just ranted about the healthcare system, in reality, I brought this on myself. You find things that work and then the next thing you know you are adding things together and making a bomb.
I would like to say that I really need to be thankful for my health. I have had significant amounts of testing done and most of it was because they noticed something that the cycle caused.

I am going to go get tanned and do cardio and then the sauna.

I cooked for the week last night so I’m good to go.
