Sorry fellas, I've been playing phone tag with the manager of the shop. They did get a shipment in, but out of the 10 bottles they have, only 2 contained 'Orchilean.' Since there's only 2, I won't be getting them, just to be fair. However, I did take a sample from my friends tub that contained 1,3dmaa and it was just the same for me. I did not notice much of a difference.

If you guys want that, there's a shop near me that sells it for about $43-45. I think I will grab one sometimes this week.

I'm pretty sure I have a very serious cold settling in. I can feel it...you remember that one time when you thought you were going to die? Yea, all those symptoms are there.

You know, that time when you didn't even get a runny nose or congestion. For two days, your body feels like it's almost at the cusp of fighting the cold off completely. But for some reason, it's hard to take deep breathes, you have this very dry and light cough that you force out - but no phlegm, and the back of your nasal passage way is so dry that it almost feels like you have strep throat.

And then BAM, next morning you feel like someone dropped SARs on your face. Yea, I'm afraid that I'm almost there. So if you guys don't hear from me in the next couple days, I'm probably dead.
:-)

Amidst of all this, I still rode my bike to the gym - in single digit weather - to stairmaster for 350 calories, abs session, and biceps. Too little energy to be doing anything else.

Oh and I bought a tub of White Floor Reborn from Amazon today because Huy scared the crap out of me with that 1,3DMaa thing. Will give it a try tomorrow hopefully.

Usually I treat those symptoms just like you did, Marc. Hit the gym, thinking I'll sweat it out. Play hockey every night, that will blow the crud out of my lungs. Unfortunately, I think it works against me more often than it works for me, so I have been skipping the gym since Friday, and have missed two hockey games. I will probably skip another game tomorrow, and if I feel like I am improving, hit the ice Thursday night and the gym either Friday or Saturday. I don't know if it's the right approach, all this time off, it's certainly not my usual M.O.....I guess how I feel in the next couple days will tell the tale.

Told Marc that I would post it because he's doing legs today and I just got done.

100 reps @225 of sumo deads. However many sets it takes you, as long as you hit 100 reps. Think I did 20,20,15,15,10,8,7,5

Seated leg press: 5x15
Lying leg curls: 8x10
Stiff leg deads with db: 4x10
seated calve raises --- donkey raises: 4x15-12

Did a high volume leg day but kept the weights fairly heavy, well at least heavy for me. It was pretty damn brutal.

Yeah, it took me about 40 min to finished the sumo deads. Quads were freaking shot!

Huy I will take a tub with 1,3.

Chest day for me today
DB decline
BB bench with bands
BB incline
EZ curl bar push-up ladder

The last one is my favorite for chest. Take a EZ curl bar into the weight rack and set up some pins on the second lowest setting and then one more two above that. Start with the EZ bar on the ground doing push-ups so that your chest goes down into the bend of the bar (you get more range of motion). Then put the bar on the next set of pins and then the last will be on the 2nd set of pins. First set go to 2 reps before failure, 2nd and 3rd sets both to failure. Great pump and good finisher for chest.

No, not yet Marc. I take my mass gainer and other concoctions after I train. I will try it in the morning, maybe I'll make protein pancakes with them :-)

I did however/am trying that CF robusto right now.

Good one, Huy.

Hoping to hit the gym tomorrow for the first time since the 3rd. Cold is 75% better.
