Hurricanes, earthquakes and workouts!
Well it’s been an exciting 24 hours. Hurricane Flossie is bearing down on the Big Island and there was a mild (5.4) earthquake last night. Looks like the volcano is getting ready for some major action again… I was at the gym when the earthquake happened and didn’t even notice it. Guess I was more intensely into my workout than I thought? Anyways…
Day 32 on Halodrol liquigels and I have made some pretty impressive gains. I have put on 8.7 pounds and gone up in almost all the lifts I do. The shoulders have gotten bigger but the strength is still the same.
Bench has gone up dramatically as has my squats. I have switched to a 5×5 type workout on leg night which has really helped. I have seen solid gains in muscularity and vascularity. This is a really good product. I stacked it with Novedex XT which I feel has helped maintain my leanness while pounding down 3500-4000 calories a day. As a former fatty it’s hard to eat that much and not be worried about packing on some love handles and belly fat.
The workout last night didn’t seem to have the intensity I am used to having in the gym. I guess with the stress of worrying about the hurricane and whether or not the data at work will be safe took away from the intensity in the end. I plan on doing legs Wednesday night and look forward to that workout as always.
I think legs are my favorite. I have also seen my muscles harden up quite a bit. I plan to keep bulking through the winter and hope to put on about 20 lbs of LBM with a clean bulking diet. Then I’ll cut around February or March for the summer.
Aloha,
Don

Hi Don,
That’s pretty cool that you live in Hawaii. I am actually just finishing up a geology course that focused on the volcanoes of the islands…very interesting. Such beautiful land. Sorry about impending hurricanes…geeez…I think that would stress me out a little bit too! Anyway, keep up the great work. It sounds like you have some major strength.
