Haha...I had a few myself on Saturday, so your not alone!! And roadtrips tend to be interesting, I agree! I normally teach classes 1-2times a week, but since one other instructor is on sick leave I've agreed to take on 3 weekly classes until easter. It's a lot of fun, but sometimes I feel like it interfers with "my own" training. Recommend it though.

Here's one suggestion to combat forgetting to eat. You've probably heard/thought of this already. Make it a habit to eat every 2-3 hrs. Regardless. I do this, but to help me from overeating or eating unhealthy foods......don't get cravings as much. Would be effective in your case too. Regarding hangovers.....those days are past for me. Hangovers at my age (esp since I don't drink much anymore) feels like I'm trying to kill myself. :D

LOL, no crazy date stories, just a lot of fun ones going hiking, camping, and stuff! How are you, my friend? :)

I know what you mean about the digestive issues. I did experience that in the beginning, when I first tried it and my body wasn't use to it, now- no problem at all. That is cool you work at GNC and can try all the new stuff. Let me know when you use your Con-Cret and what you think. Have a great week!

I have the capsule form of Con-Cret. I liked that a lot. SuperPump is great and I have used SizeOn it's a great blend. I want to try Con-Cret because it is 100% conjuglated creatine, only. I try different products and see what works, it's all trial and error. Not everyone is going to love everything. Good luck with your fitness goals and thanks for reading my blog.

I just purchased the mega man, work out daily, eat healthy and add an iso-pure/wheybolic protein with my diet.my question is i'm going to mexico in a month and plan on working out in the morning, but plan on drinking in the afternoon.Is there any risk to take with drinking? should i just take all the vitamins around the morning workout before drinking?(half before and the rest after the workout) don't like to mix things with alcohol if there's a risk. thanks

Good to know, I only take 1 pak.

Feb 25, 2009 9:00am

Thank you for the suggestions, will definitely look at that. I am taking Universal Animal Pak so I think that covers alot but you never know!

thank you. I appreciate the suggestion. :)

Be sure to do plenty of rotator cuff exercises so that the various bench presses don't strain that tender group of tendons/muscles. Loose skin will eventually tighten up. Way to go on the big transformation back then.

Yup, for a guy who's bulking like you are, my low-to-no carb diet must seem pretty strange. I peaked my bulk the end of January at 180 (that's high for me) and I only have 6 weeks to get down to contest body-fat, hopefully about 4%. I do incline bench two ways--one to my chest like normal; the other with my grip closer and lowering the bar to my neck (I do these on the Smith) to get some size in my high, outside pecs.

Thanks for your advice!

You said, "put up some recipes." Check out my blog for today. As long as people are interested, I'd be glad to post recipes.

Thanks for the visit to my blog. The scale is a Tanita It sends an electrical current up one leg and down the other to measure the and figures the body fat from that. When I was bulking I ate LOTS of carbs, but now I want my body to draw on the stored body fat. Carb cycling is a good way to force that. I'm doing one day with carbs, the next day without. Even on carb days, I focus them mostly around my workout time and before evening to lessen storage as fat.
