Get Shredded!
Alright in Vegas now. Looking forward to training and working on my posing routine with my friend. Its cold out here, so no pool action. I did wake up at 3 am this morning to do my workout before heading out to Vegas. I am feeling extremely good. I think I am down about 13 pounds and looking extremely vascular. No major sides to report. Haven't had a cough episode for a while which is great. Sex drive is through the roof. I am horny 24 hours a day which is crazy. So before heading out I decided to do shoulders.

4 x 8-10 seated dumbell press
4 x 8-10 side laterals.
4 X 8-10 Front raises
4 x 8-10 Standing up behind the neck press
4 x 8-10 Seated rear delt flies.

Hour cardio was a breeze. I am staying at the Bellagio and they have an awesome gym. I did my walk through today and booked couple of spa appointments. I am getting a sports and a deep tissue message this week.

Any way so happy with the progress and I can honestly say I don't think I ever looked so good and lean this far out from the show.

More to come from Vegas

Alright Vegas. Woke up early and hit the Bellagio gym for my hour cardio session. Went back up changed, cleaned up and had an awesome breakfast. Met my friend at his gym and we hit back today. He pushed me hard which was great for a change. He was actually surprised the condition I showed up in. He worries that I might be peaking to early and wants me to eat some more.

4 x 8-10 Wide grip pull down
4x 8-10 close grip seated rows
4x 8-10 Bend over barbel rows.
4 x 8-10 One arm dumbell rows
4 x failure wide grip pull ups.


Anyway the workout was awesome. We worked on my routine a bit and it looks good. He is going to film my routine tomorrow so I can watch and adjust. Cool thing about his gym is that they have a posing room with mirrors all over so you can see even behind you. He is even going to try to attend my show so he could coach from the stands during the posing. For those who compete you know how beneficial it is when you have a coach in the stands telling you to turn a little or stand up straight and other hints.
Awesome day. I have a message scheduled for late this afternoon and for dinner we have reservations at Texas dBrazil which is my favorite.

I wish the weather was little warmer but its cool still having a blast.

Vegas trip continues. Had excellent Brazilian steak last night. I think I ate about three pounds of meat lol. Felt very strong this morning. Did my cardio at the hotel before heading to the gym to workout with my friend. No sides and feeling great.

We decided to hit chest today.
4 X 8-10 Dumbell flat bench
4 X 8 x 10 Dumbell incline
4 x 8-10 incline flys
4 X 8 -10 Barbell decline bench
4 x dip to failure

This guy damn nearly killed me today. I think I did two to three extra reps on each set. My chest was exhausted after the workout. The importance of having a good partner or coach to push you is priceless. No matter how good you think you are, they always push you to whole another level. Awesome workout. Had breakfast together. Taking a little break and we meet this afternoon to work on the routine. I am going to hit the spa afterwards for some steam room and jacuzzi action.

Its been a fun trip so far. I am getting tons of looks and smiles. Anyway, having a great time and the journey continues.

Hello from Vegas. This morning I decided to get up and run on the strip. I got out around 4 am which was dark and pretty cold. Did one hour run going north of Bellagio all the way to the Wynn made a U turn down to Mandalay Bay south of the Blvd and back to Bellagio. Awesome run and I was pleasantly surprised to see so many others running as well. Went back to the room, cleaned up and headed to my friends for leg day.

Today he destroyed my legs.

4 x 10 squats warm up
We did 10 sets of lunges with weights back and forth the gym which was brutal.
4 x 10 stiff legged deadlift
4 x 10 leg press and he made me do an extra two or three on each set.

I walked out of the gym like Ronnie Coleman, could barely walk. Going to meet up again later this afternoon for posing routine. Boy I wish he lived in LA, I would like to train with him daily. No nonsense, talking, checking text just hard core training with this guy. I met some of his clients and honestly i was jealous. They looked remarkable. Anyway, we had night dinner last night at Delmonicos. Everything is going extremely well. I am headed back tomorrow and most likely take a day off from lifting since this beast beat me up good this week.

Alright last day in Vegas today. Just did one hour of cardio and went over the routine again. Very happy with the trip. No lifting just pointers and tips. My buddy is going to try and make the show which would be a huge plus having him coach me from the audience. Just as Vegas is getting warmer I am leaving. Probably will hit the road early afternoon. Will be back in the gym tomorrow morning.

Alright back from Vegas and down to 8 weeks. Feeling good and headed back to the gym this morning. Did my hour cardio and saw some of the regulars after a week off in Vegas. They came forward to tell me how much leaner and vascular I looked in one week. The transformation is rapid and amazing. Decided to hit the shoulders today.

4 x 8-10 seated dumbell press
4 x 8-10 side laterals.
4 X 8-10 Front raises
4 x 8-10 Standing up behind the neck press
4 x 8-10 Seated rear delt flies.

Muscle separation is now so distinct. Amazing how many parts are to the shoulder. After two sets I was pumped and skin tight. Just fyi last night I had bad case of heartburn again which is the side effect of tren. Drank a glass of milk and went away, but very annoying. Otherwise no issues right now just pushing along.

Awesome back day today. Did my one hour cardio but was little tired. I wonder if that has anything to do with me stopping GW about 4 days ago. We shall see. Lifting was not an issue.

4 x 8-10 Wide grip pull down
4x 8-10 close grip seated rows
4x 8-10 Bend over barbel rows.
4 x 8-10 One arm dumbell rows
4 x failure wide grip pull ups.

Seeing lot more definition. I am sure in 7 weeks Ill be in superb shape for stage. I haven't even started on the Halo yet which is the finishing touch. Also, the diuretics the last two days will take out all the little extra water under the skin. I am excited because the show is right before the start of summer immedieatley following two others, so I will be competing in all three. Off course this will all depend on how well I do on the first one.
Sleeping is surprisingly good. No sides other than the occasional heart burn. Even the injection cough went away after the first few weeks.
Keep pushing through.

So changed it up a little today on chest day to shock the muscle. Basically 185 pounds x 100 reps in 20 minutes. Started off great like unusual but as you getcloser to that 80 rep number your chest, triceps and shoulders are fried. I was drenched by the time I finished the reps which took 19 minutes and 14 seconds. I still did my hour cardio and went in the steam room for another 10 minutes. Shocking the muscle once in a while its good. Pretty fast and effective workout.
I will be doing different variations of this workout for other body parts this week.

Heading into week 7.

6 and half weeks left to the show. Feeling good and ready as I can be this far out. Did my hour cardio this am no issue at all. No sides to report. Haven't weight my self since last time I think I am going to wait until week 4 before doing so. Visually I can see I am still dropping weight. Decided to work on arms today.

4 x 8-10 Standing barbel curl
4x 8-10 Seated incline dumbel curl
4 x 8-10 Preacher curl
4 x 21's.

4 x 8-10 rope pull down
4 x 8-10 skull crusher
4x 8-10 reverse grip bench press
4 x failure dips

I am so lean that after only one set my biceps and triceps were exploding. Very tight skin feeling which is great. Arms and shoulders are definitely coming together. I can only imagine the separation once I include Halo.

No I continued and actually worked much harder. My friend pushed me there the entire time. I am right no schedule and might even be a little ahead.

Alright down to six weeks out. Weight loss is coming along perfectly. I am feeling very tired and worn out and I attribute that to the end of cardarine. I stopped a week ago and while on tren its a must. I am going to start it up again for the duration of the cycle. Cardio for one hour is a piece of cake for me, but its been a struggle with caloric deficit, tren and not cardarine so back to it tomorrow morning. I did my cardio today and that was it. Need to give the body a little rest. No other issues right now. Usually I start getting sluggish couple of weeks out, but I think Ive been pushing myself pretty hard and specially with the soccer tournaments and training.
Anyway not whining Ill get back at in tomorrow. Cardio and rest today.

My God I feel sluggish without the GW and on tren. I slept 4 hours after workout. Couldn't stay awake. Started up my GW again. No other issues and sides and diet and workout is coming along perfect. Can't wait to get to the last two weeks so I can start using halo.
Shoulders today.

4 x 8-10 seated dumbell press
4 x 8-10 side laterals.
4 X 8-10 Front raises
4 x 8-10 Standing up behind the neck press
4 x 8-10 Seated rear delt flies.

Will start doing 45 minute cardio in the afternoons for the next 6 weeks. Every week that goes by you need to take full advantage because you wont get it back. I might have to up the primo towards the end to make sure I don't look too flat. Right now its perfect.

Anyway going along and muscling through the challanges.

Alright back on the GW and already feeling better with more energy. Did have no issue finishing hour cardio. At this point I am not even sure how much of it is just mental? Anyway no side issues, eating is great, waist is shrinking and lats and shoulders are starting to look wider. I did gain a little weight back but I am sure its either muscle or little water because my shirts and pants are loose on me. Any way decided to hit legs today and changed it up a little.

10 x 10 squats body weight
4 sets of lunges
4 x 12 seated, standing and donkey calf raises.

Legs were done. I barely made it back to the car like a cripple. LOL. Felt good. Since I hit the gym at 2 am I am going right back to bed after finishing this post. It was just me and this other guy and I was in and out in a breeze.

Anyway getting there.

All right now that the GW kicked back in I am fully charged. Did my hour cardio no issues. Headed to the gym and decided to do my 20 minute chest routine.

185 pounds X 100 reps in 20 minutes. Got my butt kicked. This is so hard to do and yet so effective. Your chest feels like its going to burst when you are done. Felt good enough that I did another 20 minutes on the bike before leaving the gym. Getting down to the last few important weeks. Diet, water intake, workouts, everything changes now week by week. It was just announced that a professional IFBB bodybuilder is going to be a guest poser at the show. I am pretty excited.

Anyway, can not be any happier with progress. No nasty and uncontrollable sides to report.

Alright minor change that caused me miss workout yesterday. I am extremely lean and cut with 5 weeks remaining. I figured I take it to the next step. Dropped the Primo for the next 5 weeks and added injectable winstrol. OUCH! I forgot how freaking painful the shots can be. Any way site still sore today and I will work around it but damn.

Thanks Matt. I appreciate you my friend. This is a very important show. My good friend and IFBB pro is giving out the trophies and I only plan on taking first place from him. So far I am spot on.
I think I am going to step on stage at my best condition ever. I’ll have pics for sure.

Thanks again for continued support

5 weeks out my friends. Getting pretty lean. No sides besides the horrific injection pain from Winstrol. Second injection was just as crippling. I am seriously considering dropping it. No way I can endure the pain and discomfort for 5 more weeks. No other issues.

I am going to drop the Winstrol the pain is just too much. I will be starting Halo the last two weeks, so I won’t take oral anything. Halo is going to be pretty taxing on the liver.
I love oral Winstrol and I though I change it up to injectable, but the pip is painful

If it's water based you can just drink it 👍
