    Day 25

    Weight: 192.4

    No lift.

    Day 26

    Weight: 193.4

    Chest, Triceps. Had to get to the gym extra early today. Wife wants to finish Christmas shopping today...woohoo....joking....anyway not crazy about it but thought ok, we have an hour, let's make the most of it.

    Felt like s#!+ at first, felt like I needed more food in me, etc., etc. Whining about everything in my head, lol. So finally I got warmed up and got started.

    Bench Press
    135x15, 175x8, 205x8, 225x8 (Holy Halo, what's up, this shit is kicking in, I haven't hit that in a couple years)

    Incline Bench Press
    135x10, 165x8, 185x8

    Bodyweight Dips (wanted to do weighted but the guys broke the chain...AGAIN)
    3x12

    Lying Tricep Extensions SS with Rope Pressdowns
    75x15 - 50x15
    95x12 - 50x15
    115x10 - 50x15

    So another short, to the point workout, kick ass pump! Got home and did a few sets of push ups, don't really know why, just started hittin' em' when I walked in the door. Anyway this little baby cycle of mine is kicking in nicely. This equals a cruise for a lot of guys, but to me it's great, natural for 41 years, then this, yeah I feel it. I love this non-overtrain workout system, lol, train less, grow more!

    Day 27

    Weight: 195.4

    Back, Traps

    Wide Pull Ups
    1x12, 1x12, 1x11

    Deads
    135x15, 225x10, 275x6, 315x3, 345x3, 365x3

    Bent Row SeeSaw type Nautilus apparatus
    2plates x 15, 4plates x 12, 6plates x 10

    Nautilus Lat Pulldown
    140x15, 155x12, 165x12, 175x10

    Pretty good workout today. Low Back feeling a little sore, contemplated doing deads or not, eased my way in, didn't push it too hard. Was happy to get 365 up. Could have done more but didn't want to press my luck.

    Day 31

    Weight: 195.2

    Quads, Calves

    I think this switch to day shift is killing me this week because I felt tired and not real fired up to lift. Much less squat. My form felt off, knee felt funny, not a spectacular workout.

    Squats
    205x10, 245x8, 265x8, 275x7

    Leg Extensions Superset with Light Squats
    ??? x 20reps - 135 x 12 x 3

    Decided to do some more squats and try to find my stroke, get my form in line because it just felt totally off. I think I was protecting my knee and was just off line a little.

    Seated Calf
    90x50, 90x50

    Leg Press Calf
    ??? x 40, ??? x 40

    Better luck next time...

    Abs
    Hanging Leg Raises 2 sets, Ab Machine 2 sets, Ab Exercise on Ball my therapist showed me, like a stabilization thing - 2 sets

    Incline Bench
    175x8, 205x5, 225x3, 235x1(just for fun, easy, drop set)->185x10

    135x8x3

    Worked in some Chest Dips also on 4 sets or so across the Pressing movements. Great pump, good workout. Finally had some energy today. Hopefully adjust to new schedule better next week.

    Haven't chimed in for a few days. I am on my last day today. 2 pills left. To sum up I think Halo was a good product. I used it in an attempt at a clean bulk. I gained strength, I gained 13 lbs., not all muscle of course, but I feel it was a successful little run. I feel that I stayed leaner than with out it compared to other times I gained that much weight in a little over a month. I have tried several IML products: FlexRX, ACS, OstaRX, and now Halo, liked them all. I want to try the M-Sten next. I am going to watch the latest logs and see how it goes for Last, BigB, and Manimal while my system cleans out. Happy Holidays!
