Hit the gym today as expected.

Box Squats 115x5, 165x5, 165x5, 165x5
Incline Bench 135x5, 155x5, 155x5, 155x5, 160x3
Underhand Pullups Body x 5, Body + 25lbs x 5, Body + 25lbs x 5, Body + 25lbs x 6


As you can see, i pretty much stuck to the basics today. The squats were much easier than 2 days ago. I only did 3 working sets due to the fact i hit em pretty hard only 2 days ago, opposed to 3.

I made a nice improvement on the incline bench. My second working set of 155 last time I only did 4 reps. This time i did 3 working sets with 155, all 5 reps each. I felt like i could do a bit more, so i threw a 2.5 on each side to make 160. I got the first 2 easily but the third was a bit hard. I didnt want to push my self to the limits without a spotter or hurt myself from doing more, so i ended it at 3.

I decided to ditch the barbell rows in favor of some pullups for 2 reasons. I feel like i'm getting burned out on rows. Second, I have a PFT coming up and I'm trying to hit 20 pullups. Therefore doing those are a bit more favorable to me right now. Also, the 6th one on the last set was barely assisted, I had about 3 inches to go and was steady there until my buddy pushed me up a bit.

No direct arm work because I was trying to get out of there. Also, the pullups hit my bi's pretty hard. I'll do some tri's on the next workout.

I am cramping in my arms a lot lately. Does the cramping site have any relation to the effect of the product? For example, since I'm cramping in my arms (Mostly around the joint, especially the forearms), does that mean there is a high concentration of it there and thats what will grow the fastest? Or does it mean that's where ill grow the least? I dont understand how some areas can cramp and others be fine.

Besides the cramping, Havoc seems to keep soreness (DOMS) at bay.

I was a bit lethargic today. At first i thought it was because I was hungry and dehydrated. But after i ate and drank i still felt the same way. So I'm thinking the Havoc is playing a role in that.

About nutrition...My diet today mostly consisted of protein shakes, protein bars, tuna, and 1/2 a pizza after working out. So far I'm at roughly 280g protein. I'll definately make 330g by bedtime.
