    I feel great!! I did HIIT tonight and all cylinders are firing.
    Some of the things you guys say resonate within me.
    I have put the Dr’s behind me until after the comp.
    I could have gone longer on cardio. If I can maintain this outlook, I can do wonders. I just know it.
    I have GH in my corner- I’m sure he’s probably wondering wtf he got into. LMAO

    I am being a little careful because I got dizzy a couple of times. It was rather quick but pretty intense. Both times was when I laid down- one for the echocardiogram and the other of doing decline sit ups.
    Im fine.

    Tomorrow will probably be the last real leg workout before the comp. I plan on hitting them extra hard.

    Worked out legs today- probably the last major workout prior to competition.
    I did get dizzy on the leg press but I worked through it. I finished with a pretty good pump. Sauna for 10 minutes.
    I’m seeing striations in my quads .
    Spirits are up, I am a man with a mission. I’m not looking too good, but I’m on my way.
    This prep is different than any other one and I’ll see where it takes me.

    Things are going good. I am having some small energy issues. When I sit down it’s like I need to gather a head of. Steam to get up.
    It’s sort of like a tractor in mud. You need to slowly accelerate to get going once moving, it is normal energy expenditure.
    Did delts today and had a great workout but the weight was less than normal.

    Guys I have a number of things that I am going to talk about.

    I am first want to say Happy Easter to everyone. He has RISEN!
    It is pretty ironic... Ronnie Rowland went in to surgery on Good Friday and is being released today (Easter Sunday).

    I am normally not political but WTF is happening in this world. Bombings in Churches??????
    We are causing our own self destruction. We are too caught up in the rat race of society. There is a song by Buffalo Springfield that says “Nobodies right if everbodies wrong”.
    Let’s do our part to make other people’s life happy.
    I saw this older lady get pissed at another driver. I did not like what the other driver did, but I let it go. She could not. Maybe she was on tren ..... if not, keep the tren away from her. LOL. She scared me watching her reactions in my mirror.

    Now to the good stuff...:: I am feeling great! Today was an off day, but I wanted to go and do some LI cardio. I did 40
    Minutes and the last 10 i bumped it up a little.
    I also did abs and 10 minutes in the sauna.
    Spirits are up. I can’t get over how I’m looking. I expected to look extremely fat today and I did not. I may change my poses because the skin is tightening and I may not have to hide as much.
    Abs are the best they ever have been.
    Posing now will be my focus. I feel that I am behind on posing.
    I am also changing to work out 2x per week each muscle.
    Legs from here on out are just pumping blood.
    I am looking very positive. This year may be my year. I’ve already won because this years version kicked last years in the ass.

    I want to thank everyone for the support!

    What's your go-to cardio?

    I'm also curious about your cardio and/or your macro breakdown?

    Charger I am betting you I get the same fusion of vertrae surgery Ronnie just did.

    That was what was causing my shoulder and elbow pain and left front delt activation.

    My go to cardio is HIIT however this really taxed my CNS and I just recently added LI cardio. It makes it much easier to go to the gym for cardio on the “off” days. My go to is still HIIt .
    Most people do it on a bike, I do it on the treadmill.
    Depletion week
    250 protein 47 carbs 50 fats
    1750 calories.
    I normally adjust but this is different than anything I’ve done so I’m just along for the ride. LOL
    I’m usually around 1500 calories.

    I hope not Obs. I had a fusion, but lower and I was in the hospital for a week. There was no way I could leave after 3 days. I still had Morfin pumped through my body at that point and couldn’t walk.

    Damn... I was really hoping you'd say 2500 or something wonderfully high, lol. Give me some hope in case I wanted to get "charger lean" some day. But 1750 makes me grimace, 1500 makes me outright nauseous!

    You're a real inspiration brother, thanks for taking us on your journey!

    Today, I did the Cape. Quick workout, limited rest. I was looking like a crazed animal with my vascularity. Pick doesn’t even begin to show what it was like.
    I did bi’s, tri’s and back. 15-20 reps
    Feeling great, looking a little flat. I didn’t have a place to pose in the morning.
    HIIT tonight, calves and abs.

    Well, I have great news!!! The echocardiogram came out good. My potassium came out within.
    I would like everyone to learn from me. You really do not know what is going on during your cycle. Be careful of what you mix. I got a little reckless trying to prepare for the comp. I obviously pulled back on the cutting and I had what I call good bloods after adjustments. My BuN is a little high, cholesterol, and creatinine. All which is to be expected. The atrial fibrillation had me worried.

    I’m still feeling great. I had a trainer at the gym check my body fat with calipers. He had no clue what he was doing. Worse yet he didn’t blink when he told me I was 15% bf. I don’t think so!!!!
    I did cardio and got my heart up to 150 with HIIT. After , I did forearms , calves and abs. Once again, the vascularity was coming through. It’s great when your veins get so big, the cause a shadow under the right lighting.
    Anyone have any comments on the pose? I am adding this one to my routine. Any comment are appreciated since I really am not sure how to do I.
