Comments

Sleep - Time and Quality: Sleep not so great - broken. Some dreams.

Mood/Aggression: Been pretty single-minded today. Mood lifted a little when learnt body composition.

Energy: Have actually had none pretty much all day - training was done at the very last, which isn't the best, but at least it was DONE.

Stimulant Effects: None.

Mental Focus and Clarity: Mind was on full alert, though, and spent a huge bulk of the day updating and making changes and additions to my website.

Metabolism: Good.

Libido: My BODY is ready to roll whenever . . .

Endurance: Fine.

Strength: Like the last two days, this session was NOT about strength, and I used the same weight/s as yesterday, but pushed out a few more reps.

Pump: Still painful in my anterior delts, but running through arms as well today.

Vascularity: Earlier today, there were blue ripples over my arms.

Quality of Training: HIIT was an effort - definitely feeling this in my legs . . . Resistance training was PAIN - albeit brief pain, which makes it better . . .

Recovery: My body ached all over like a huge bruise this morning, and moving was done gingerly most of the day. Definitely NOT inclined towards training on waking.

Body Composition: 118lb at 10.7% bodyfat. So, made surprising progress this week. I can see the fat loss in my upper body, but my lower body measurements have NOT changed from last week - which is odd, since my pants have been feeling LOOSER. At this weight and body composition, I am only 3-4 weeks away from my goal composition.

Other Effects: I notice that I get the sudden chills not long after my second dose of Alpha-T2 if I dose it on a VERY empty stomach. Interesting - considering I have been BURNING up the rest of the day!

Other Notes: From tomorrow, I am going to start dosing Alpha-T2 at 2 caps first thing and 2 caps 8 hours post-Dose 1.
