T-Alpha 45 min before work out. Worked out Saturday instead of Friday. Diet OK- needed to eat a little more food. Sleep 6.5 hrs, Discipline Good, Breathing OK. Still worn out from Dodgeball Friday night. Low carb kicked my butt the last couple days. I didn't get as many vege carbs as I normally do, that's probably the culprit. Feeling tighter during and after every workout.

Bumped up T-Alpha dose to 3 capsules 1 hour before workout.

This is my strength week. I decided to try something new for a routine this week. It is called:

Compound Exercise Overload -20 sec rest between sets
-object do as many sets as you can in 44 minutes; while only doing 3 reps, even if you can do more. Rest 1 minute then do as many reps as you can during the 45th minute. I chose to work chest today.

15 degree Barbell Press

205x3x2
195x3x7
185x3x4
175x3x20
165x3x4
155x3x6
145x3x2
135x3x6
125x3x3
115x3x15
115x4x1 1 min rest before last set

Sweet pump during and after. A good change of pace for strength/power week.
20 minuted low intesity post-workout
If intereste I got the routine from Best Compound Exercise You'll Ever Do!
