Did this because I was running short on time. Also, all was done under 30 minutes.
Today I ran 6 miles in about 40 minutes.
Unfortunately I decided to go back to running a bit too late, the damage is already done. I’ve bloated up a lot, I’m retaining a lot of water in my calves and ankles, edema I think it’s called. Funny, I never did roids, so I don’t know what is causing it. It’s probably not enought water intake and a little bit of accidental creatine loading. I’ve popped in some diuretics and increased my water intake, along with that I’ll do cardio until I drop this water weight and cut back to some decent size. Hopefully the edema will be gone and I’ll lose this big ass and fat I got from this last weeks of madness and non-clean bulking.
I dropped about 11 pounds of water last night, just with diuretics. Jesus I didn’t I was that retaining all that water, but my calves are back to normal and I don’t look like a bloat again, shame I’m not 220 anymore :(.
Ran 5 miles today.

My life is almost going back to normal speed.
I’ll try to kick in a Strongman exercice once in a while from now on.
Doubt there’s many guys on here that could do this as 1/6th of a session, and as part of a triset…all in under thirty minutes. You’ve made some phenomenal progress.
P.S. What’d you use as a diuretic? I’m assuming something natural like dandelion root…and if so how did it leave you feeling afterwards?

Actually this left me very beated up, as I have a problem breathing due to a thing in my sinuses, so whenever I do stuff like this I end up looking like an asmathic fat man who just ran a set of stairs. 
But thanks bro.

I took a cheap over the counter version of something called Moduretic. It’s pretty weak as I barelly felt the effects. I used this one instead of a natural version because it helps store Potassium instead of depleting it, as I didn’t want to start cramping up like an old man while I lost all that water. The first day I took it I felt a bit tired and light headed, and it was a pain to having to go to the bathroom every 1 hour or so.
Thanks for stopping by man.

My numbers are not high right now as I decided to focus on felling the muscle work without cheating the movement. My biceps and my shoulders are my weak points and I want to bring them up before stepping on stage sometime in the future.
Hey Ken Doll 
11 pounds of water is a lot. But I guess with your training and whatnot, it’s understandable for you to carry that much water.
Just don’t do those farmer walks on a treadmill anymore, mm-k? 
I’ll say again that you don’t have any weak points but you should do a “show”, whatever that means.

It’s been a while since I’ve done any AB work and I see I was wrong not to do it, besides feeling the area weak, it doesn’t have the insane 8 pack look I used to had back in the day. So with the help of a friend of mine we are going to kick my ab developement into progress again, and perhaps one day I’ll have a decent midsection full of veins

Then I did Russian twists until I couldn’t anymore.
Facepulls are, so far, the most fun exercice I ever did. Can’t cheat, could move a considerable amount of weight for someone who never did them properly.

I was supposed to do Shoulders and Triceps and kick some shurgs somewhere, but again, not enought time today. I hate training with limited time. All was done in 40 minutes.
September 05, 2010: Cardio

200 meters lunges with 88 lbs.
September 06, 2010: Shoulders and Biceps

A2. BB Shrugs 220x20, 260x20, 300x14, 360x12, 400x5
( Note: I just shrugged 80% of my deadlift with no leg drive, holy shit.)
B1. Incline Lateral Raise 26x15, 26x15, 26x15
B2. Machine Lateral Raise 110x30, 110x27, 110x23

Then for Triceps:
A1. CGBP 220x10, 220x10, 220x10
A2. Overhead DB Extension 132x12, 132x12, 132x12
A3. Tate Press 110x15, 110x15, 110x15
Notes:
My triceps has decided to be strong today, 200 flew up on the CGBP and 220 felt easy enough.
I took it easy on the shrugs because my traps were sore from the 400lbs.
High Cable Reverse Crosses are one hell of an exercise for the rear delts, I used a light weight but the thing burned everything, from my traps to my upper lats.
hey man! you’re still tearing it up!

-half
Shrugs and military press two days in a row? And P.S, its no longer august

Oh, I mixed up the dates haha, I do this all the time because I’m distracted like hell.
I had one day off to allow recovery, I’m training shoulders 3/2 times a week since it’s been a weak point for far too long.
Thanks for stopping by man.
