MFL Competition Sponsored Test P/NPP/Dbol/Var Log

[03xx52]

Dude if your honestly doing full ass to grass parallel squats at 405, with that muscle mass and weight I would shit myself. No offense dude but I have never seen that. Honestly ridiculous and that volume is wayyyyy over board, your getting close to catablolism, scale that shit down. Maybe look into a wendler or smolov routine. Impressive strength man, im 6'4" and 225 and I barely scratch at 405 full squat.

Your log says var as well so you dropped that? So your plan is to run a bunch of free gear and win 500 and then give up on cycling I find that hard to believe just my opinion. I'm just not sold on your experience and you jumping on so much gear already and then saying your done. Yea I maybe a little hard on you but I'm a hard gainer too and just think you are looking for an easy way out with all the gear you are using. I'm no pro never said I was but I have lots on steriods and if you saw my transformation pics and log I'm pretty hard into this and dedicated but if you can put on 30 pounds on this cycle of muscle more power to you. I won't comment on your log anymore sorry to hijack it but your training with all those sets and reps and so much gear just baffles me. Like others said less is more. Like I hit chest today.

Incline bench

10x225

8x235

Dumbell bench

Then same with shoulders 3 sets with of 3 different exercises 45 min in and out

Giving up on cycling doesn't mean I'm going to stop working out. Those volume sets are only for the last week of the 12 weeks. Like a blast, to get me back in strength and conditioning shape. I'm 5'9" so I don't have a reason to go past 190, or even 200. I know I'll be satisfied after this cycle, because I have other goals to achieve. Yes I do compete in MMA and Jiu Jitsu, but not when cycling. after this cycle I'll be going back to a strength and conditioning routine.
I'm not going to fight guys weighing in at 200 while me being 5'9".
If I do get 190, I'll fight at 175 and walk at 190.

Yes I do parallel squat 405. The whole gym stops when I do. It's pretty nice.
My strength is good because for the last 6 years all I do is for strength.
I've got a buddy at 145 that benches 345+, he's also black lol. Genetics do help.

Hope this clears the air for my personal goals. We don't all have the goal to be a bodybuilder. Heck i might look into being a fitness model, but that's as far as I'm going.

If your not below parallel its not a squat.....Just my.02 cents
Good luck on cycle man I hope you get all your volume ironed out.

Lol I'm sorry. Yes I do go just below parallel. That's the only way I know how. That's what I mean by parallel lol. I like the drive that you have to really push to get it up from the hole, especially when you have to squeeze your poop hole shut at the same time. Haha

I'm also flexible so that helps. 5'9" is that tall or short? I think that's average lol

Actually the average height of an American male is 5'9-1/2 (2013) . Just read that . Of course that means alot of under and alot over that height . Your right in the middle.....

Had a pretty nasty reaction to Caber last night, took it at 4 ate buffet at 6 and got nauseous, was full after a plate. Puked everything out. Got another plate and puked everything out again, so no dinner for me, today I'm holding food in. So Caber is out of the question. That blows

Looks good Sean - those lightweights sure get heavy after 12 ,13,14,15 reps dont they ?
Id cut those plate shrugs back to 2 sets - remember 2 sets on all exercises (not counting beginning warm-up sets)

I had almost 2 fail reps today - see my HST thread......~OGH

Thanks, those plate shrugs are at no warm up btw. And they were a pain to get 10 lol

 

[seanchan]

Last 2 days in Arkansas before I go back to Cali, gonna hit some Jiu Jitsu for 4 hrs today for the sake of it lol

Are you still trying to bulk up the upper body? If so, IMO you look to be doing a lot of high reps which will cut you up. To put on bulk you should stick round the 3-4 sets x 5-8 reps range. You'll move heavier weight which will require more muscle. It also looks to me that you could be over training arms which is not uncommon.

I'm actually going thru a HST program for proven weight gain by week 5 I'll be at 85% 5 reps, and weights are always going up 5-10 lbs, full body routine 3 days a week. First 2 weeks 40% at 15 reps. Week 3-4 65% at 10 reps. Week 5-6 85% at 5 reps. Mon wed fri,

I thought you were doing the HST, but only weeks 5 & 6 is where your truly doing your bulking. I've always had my best gains putting on the muscle, and then using an HST to improve the foundation. The body does respond best to shock, but you can also get that by changing up your exercises. An example would be wide grip lat pull downs one day, then do wide grip chin ups the next workout, and a under hand grip pull down with a super set chin up the next. Keeps the body from adjusting much the same as the HST method. To me it looks like with all the extra curricular activities/cardio/high reps your going to burn off a good chunk before you have a chance to keep it on. Remember, your compounds are also assisting in the building & burning process.
