Week 3!

Having my mom and aunt on vacation here was really fun, but now it's time to buckle down and get serious about bodybuilding. There's not much on my mind right now to talk about. I just have to get it done. It's as simple as that.

Today was a killer back workout. I am getting back into the grove with deadlifts and they are working well for me. This working was very demanding and I decided not to do abs after back because I was completely wiped out. I will see if I can fit them in somewhere else during the week or something.

I messed up on military press and thought there was 115 on the bar for my third set. I guess that didn't matter because this workout actually felt a lot harder and better than my last Shoulders/Traps workout.

I tried reverse flys today on the pec deck machine for my rear delts and it was surprisingly harder than I expected it would be. I really felt it working and I will most likely be very sore in the morning.

I ran the mile in PE today and that was the first major physical activity that I had done since football season. When I started my calf exercises today, my calves felt like they had already been worked.

I thought it would be a bad idea to work them today and decided to let them rest so they wouldn't be overwhelmingly sore during my leg workout tomorrow. Other than that my workout went very well.

My legs were sore from running the mile yesterday in PE and my body felt like it needed a rest. I will do legs tomorrow and continue on normally with my split.

School got out today! I had been looking foreword to this the past several weeks and I am definitely going to have a lot of fun this summer while putting on a lot of lean mass at the same time.

I fell asleep on the couch after church, so some of my meals got pushed back a bit. I squeezed them all in, but I got to the gym later than I wanted to. The gym closes early on Sunday's, so I had to hurry up with my workout.

I didn't get to do all the sets that I wanted to and I am upset about it. I guess I will just have to forget about it and look to the future. There's nothing I can do to change it so it's worthless thinking about it. Other than not fitting in enough sets, the workout went pretty well.

My last dose of MAN Bodyoctane was taken Thursday. I believe this product worked better for me than creatine ever did. This product didn't cause me to hold water and didn't give me cramps. I definitely see a big future for this supplement and I believe it will become as popular if not more popular than creatine. The more popular it becomes, the more affordable it will become. Right now it is a bit expensive, but definitely worth it in my opinion. I am hoping the price will drop in the future so everyone can use it and benefit from it.

My next supplement that I am going to try is Creator G2 by LegalGear. I am going to be testing that product similar to how I tested MAN Bodyoctane. I will be honest and accurate in describing the effects that the product has on me. I am not sure when they are shipping out the samples, but hopefully I will begin using the product soon.
