Don't have a team, but if I had to chose, barcą and galaxy. I'm an international type of guy. I rep the States, and Honduras too, but they are just such a disappointment to watch

Arsenal are my 3rd love in life. I cardio for 2 hrs and watch them play early weekend mornings. Used to live in North London and attend games. Here in the States, the MLS is disappointing but Galaxy have my interest due to all the players coming in.
Soccer players are just so all around fit and athletic. I wish my parents put me in soccer at a young age.
Galaxy is my home team, i watch them live when i can since its only an house drive. I love arsenal and arsen wager or how ever u spell his name. He's one of my favorite English Premier coaches. Unlike mourinho.... English league I go for my boys in blue, man c. I used to like wigan athletic cus it had to of my paisas (country men) in their team but they ended up winNing the fa cup but getting relegated... go figure.
Edit:
Can't wait to see how our boys from the States place in the next world cup. Disappointed Jurgen left out Donovan from the squad

A few weeks ago I met these brazilian dudes who have a street team in LA and will play for the new LA FC owned by Will Ferrell and Magic Johnson. They were saying that the MLS is really lucrative for a lot of South American players.
I'm looking forward to that expansion... gay ass cristiano said he's coming to LA in 18 or 19. As much as I can't stand that dude, he is still pretty bad ass... would rather have Messi in the states any day of the week tho

So I absolutely killed my squats today. Last week I did a couple of heavy singles at 225 at the top of the pyramid...today I did squats as I laid them out previously except I did:
225x2
225x3
225x2
225x1
And then had gas to do 135x12.
Holy.Fucking.Shit.
Heading out to my favorite national park for some backcountry hiking and camping for two days which will include many miles of hiking with a pack on. I worry I will cramp as cramping during cardio has been problematic.
My traps and shoulders and upper back have exploded. I think I finally have those markers of a lifter on gear. LOL

Good stuff! Especially with that burnout at the end. Im sure youll feel it later*, but enjoy your hiking.
*Im probably weird because I love the feeling of walking funny the day after heavy squats.

Usually log my last set. I keep an excel sheet on my phone to log workouts and any notes. Then I play with my music a little. When Im getting heavier I have certain songs that really hype me up. When im going real heavy theres abiut 3 or 4 songs that get me pumped enough to lift those extra lbs.
How about you? Besides pacing around like a lion(ess)...

I dead hang on the rack and stretch my bod; I do shoulder mobility with 5 lb plates; I goblet squat and straight leg dl with light weight.
Im into 'active rest' until deep into the workout when I'll just sit. No phone or anything...I just zone out.

This experience may be of interest in terms of real life applicability, although I don't have much to report in the way of progress due to my adventure.
Saturday I lifted as heavy as I have for a long time and I followed that workout up with an extremely strenuous backpacking trip and a tri-state drive in a little less than 48 hours. If you've ever been to Zion National Park and hiked Angel's Landing and The Narrows, you might understand the limits to which I pushed my body. Very hot, windy dry weather climbing followed by upstream hiking in the snow runoff filled Virgin River on little sleep and food and carrying a heavy pack.
Returned on Tuesday and jumped back into the grind, workouts, parenting and work.
The result? Extreme swelling in my limbs to the point where I could not bend my legs at the knee and arms at the elbow. My legs looked like trunks with no usual curve, just one size all the way down to my ankles. My feet did not fit in shoes.
Ooops. I think this was a case of mild rehabdo. I'm better today with a lot of the swelling reduced. I'm on lots of water and a protein fast to get the water out. I assume with the extra load from AAS, protein intake, intense exercise and the whole backpacking experience - my kidneys were overloaded.
My abdomen is very bloated as well...I'm just one big case of muscle breakdown, inflammation, and under recovery.
Going to take it easy for a week. My plan is to cut the intense cardio, have a deload week, keep protein way high and lower carbs to just fibrous sources until the edema goes down. Lite salt, magnesium and potassium are my priorities to keep electrolytes in check.
I'm into the 4th week of the cycle with 8 weeks to go at 15mg.
So far strength is up, muscle mass has increased and I'm happy with the way things are going despite my hiccup.

Ouch. You definetly need your down time. A lot of people think using AAS means less rest time. For me personally it actually means more because I pushing harder during my training sessions... more reps and higher weights.
But I do hope you feel better and get back at it soon.

Yeah, I'm a classic over-exerciser. Even down to the physique that this produces: slightly higher BF than would be expected with so much activity. I always say I will rest, then somehow make it to the gym and tell myself I'll just stretch, walk, or do mobility...and it turns into a full workout.

Trust me, Ive said it before, I was one of the worst over trainers of all time. I went 7 days a week for almost 8 years. I felt like a day off was just wasting time when I could be making "gainz".
But as Ive gotten older
and changed to PLing Ive learned to appreciate the time off. And I usually hit some PRs after letting my muscles rest and recuperate.

For sure. It's a really weak point in my training. Even powerlifting...I could have made so many more gains on a higher intensity, lower volume program. I just have a hard time not working out. Lots of pent up, anxious energy is released when I move. Both a blessing and a curseTrust me, Ive said it before, I was one of the worst over trainers of all time.

Look at a rest day the same way you would look at a training day." It must be done"

Hit 310 lb deadlift PR at 163 lbs woop!
Loving this stuff! Now that the inflammation from my 25 miles of hiking/climbing is down, I can see a lot of definition in my shoulders and delts. I had about 8 lbs of water weight that whooshed overnight.
I also did Calum Von Monger'S chest insanity workout (check it out on you tube - pretty good vid) and holy fuck what a pump! The pushup/cable fly superset as a finisher was amazing.

Training first , now on sides:
My breasts have shrunk A LOT. My frame is much more boxy as well. Perhaps because my obliques are more prominent and hard, but I am shaping out to have the crossfit kind of physique. Not super popular in BB circles, but I guess it comes with the fact that Im lifting heavy. With body recomp it could be far from the finished product tho, so with 7 weeks to go, it could change. My butt is still getting bigger, my hips and breasts shrinking. I will up fats and lower carbs to be on the safe side with hormones tho. I don't eat a lot of red meat but will be incorporating it more often in the week. Lean cuts of beef and salmon. In the past, being natural, I've noticed that too low in fats and my body loses its curves quickly.
My hair is shedding, but it's also that time of year where I tend to see some more shedding normally. Not super worried.
I don't get a period so nothing to report on that front. Checked BP and it's good as well. I have to shave more often but my voice us fine. I sing loudly on my commute to work every morning to check
.
Some things that concern me slightly: I'm always thirsty. Never feel like I can drink enough. Also, I'm either really raring to go or very lethargic.

Congrats on the PR. 310 lbs is badass!!
My boobs are gone too. Boobjob is def coming in the near future.
I haven't noticed any hair shedding but I def see some peach puzz in my face and chest when I checked w a magnified mirror. Clit is still a bit swollen.
I'm also always super thirsty. Drinking close to 2 gallons a day!
How many rest days are you taking per week? Rest is incredibly important especially when juicing. That may be one of the reasons you feel lethargic. I train every other day and been sleeping so much. My body craves sleep!
Glad to hear your swelling and water retention decreased.
Keep on slaying those PRs!!
You should post some progress pics
