Were getting into the thick of the cycle now. The Test should be building some good blood levels and I am hoping for some steady gains. Were at the business end of things now.
All boxes are ticked so Fingers crossed. Surfer

Back Deadlift Warm up 10 x 60 8 x 100 6 x 140 6 x 160 6 x 170 - - - PB [ Very Little Back Pump!!!!! Dumbell Bent Over Row 10 x 38 10 x 40 10 x 42 10 x 44 Cable PullDown Row 10 x 65 10 x 70 10 x 75 10 x 80 Front Cable Pulldown 10 x 65 10 x 70 10 x 75 10 x 80 Strange attachment that a mate brought to the gym enabled me to try pulldown rows that focus on the inner upper back. Basicall the same pulldown bar but with handles running in opposite directions to pulldown bar itself. Im not sure I would use it every week but it was good to try something different. My theory that back pumps are associated with poor water consumption is correct and therfore the only way top cure this was to drink it by the bucket load from morning untill the workout. Preferably I should have drank alot more the day before as well. New Personal best on Deadlifts. Im getting closer to my goal of 4 plates a side. I dont think it will be long now at all. With these new PB's happening it really does make me wonder what my one rep maxes are. I would love to find out, especailly on deadlift. Its no wonder people turn to powerlifting when they begin to get heavy, its addictive. Looking forward to Mondays weigh in. I have been so tempted to jump on the scales the last few days but have managed to control myself. Lol. Surfer

CHEST Pre exhaust / Warm Up Cable Flies 15 x 7.5 15 x 7.5 Bench Press 10 x 85 8 x 90 6 x 95 5 x 100 + 1 assisted - - - Up one rep Dumbell Press 10 x 34 8 x 36 7 x 38 6 x 38 Inclined Bench Press 12 x 60 10 x 70 7 x 75 + 1 assist 80 x 4 Cable Flies 12 x 12.5 12 x 12.5 12 x 15 Eliptical 15 mins HIIT. Thankfully strength was there for Monday evening despite fridays poor weights. No real increases but 1 rep on my heaviest set on Barbell Bench. Keeping the eliptical work to three times a week in order to keep the Bodyfat in check for the upcoming Cut. But thats stil a good bit ahead. Other than that nothing really to report. If the cycle ended now I would be happy with the gains in strength and weight. Saying that I will wait untill After PCT before I count my chickens .Surfer

Yeah it is. Im happy with the way things are progressing Mitch and have had recent compliments from a few gym mates that dont know Im 'on'.
Hopefully the weight will keep going. When It slows I will have to think whether to stop at eight or ten weeks. What would you say? Surfer

On a side note, I have an eye infection from a sty in my left lash ridge eye caused by . . . wait for it, a build up of 'grease' on my skin, lol. Had to get some Antibiotics from the doc to clear it up and she revealed the cause. So depsite cleansing my face twice daily, I use wipes, I avoid my eyes and get the infection there. Typical! Surfer
