crawfBigG's OstaRx Log

[crawfBigG]

My bottle showed up in the mailbox today. Always nice to get the mail and see IML goodies in there! Thanks to IML for giving me the opportunity to log one of their great products. I have used quite a few so far and liked them all.

I used OstaRX once before back in November of last year. It was like a slow steady building kinda run. Quietly I got a little stronger, and got a little leaner as well, along with great pumps at the gym. I'm hoping this time it goes about the same. Keep diet and training in check and I expect nothing less. Gains like this are easy to keep, that is one great thing about OstaRx.

I plan on doing three caps a day. Morning, mid-day, and one more with last meal.

Current stats:
Age: 42
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 203.6

I ran some SuperDMZ 2.0 about a month ago. I was up to 213.6 at my highest after three weeks, broke some personal PRs, then tweaked my back pretty good and had to give it a rest for a couple of weeks. I immediately went low carb diet and just decided to try to burn some fat while I healed up. I have been back training now about two weeks. Getting my strength back, and it feels good to be able to work out hard again.

Support Supps currently using:

HRT, lol

BI Muscle Provider

Fish Oil

Joint Care

Multivitamin

BI Ultra 40

Fiber

Braggs ACV

Will update soon with feedback on how things are going.

Had me a bigazz cheat yesterday. My calories have been super low where I wasn't active there for almost like 3 weeks. It's time to get the metab revved back up now that I can train again. I reassessed my macros today and set up a new diet.

Calories	Protein	Carbs	Fat
2900	300g = 1200 calories	200g = 800 calories	100g = 900calories

Which became this:

	Protein	Carbs	Fat	Calories	Food
Meal 1	44	50	24	552	eggs - 4whole, 2 whites, oat bran - 1/2 cup
Meal 2	34	7	4.5	234	chicken 6oz, saurkraut - 1cup, kale - 1oz
Meal 3	32	5	15	290	cod 6oz, broccoli slaw 1 cup , olive oil - 1 tbsp
Meal 4	55	12	23	485	Shake 2 scoops whey iso, almonds
Meal 5	44	58	23	612	eggs - 4whole, 2 whites, oatmeal - 1 cup
PWO	37	7.5	5.5	230	Shake 1.5 scoops whey iso
Meal 6	50	44	10	410	beef or chicken 8oz, rice 1 cup
Totals	296	183.5	105	2813

I'll see how that treats me for a while and adjust from there. Today I did a light shoulders, calves and some extra abs session. 15 minutes HIIT cardio afterward. I have switched to trying to do more HIIT like cardio after listening to Muscle College Radio. I'm sure I'm not hitting it as hard as they describe but it is kicking my ass and is a world away from LISS.

Weight this morning: 204.4

Behind the Neck ( Smith )
Warm up 15 reps
3 sets - 12 reps

Rope rear delts
3 sets - 15 reps

Side Laterals

Pretty decent workout. Now I'm cooking up a bunch of food for the week. Time to get back to that and time to eat! Be back with updates soon.

The back is almost normal again. Well at least what I call normal. It blows out about once or twice a year, usually setting me back for about 3-4 weeks. Gotta stay on my core work, perfect form, and add weight to the bar slowly. I got maybe a little carried away, but hell you never get anywhere if you don't challenge yourself...bad back or not. Thanks for droppin' in.

Nice detail, man!

Was running late tonight, got to the gym dragging ass from not much sleep last night and a rough day at the office, lol. Still managed a pretty good workout despite all this. Maybe some OstaRx assistance..... probably....

Squats after some light leg ext. and leg curls (haven't done anything heavy in like 6 weeks so I thought I would test the waters a little)(heavy for me anyways, lol)( below parallel and very slow on the negative portion)

135x10, 185x6, 225x4, 275x3, 295x3, 315x1, 325x1

All these sets were pretty easy, but I didn't want to go overboard, felt real good though. Got a really good pump on minimal reps.

SLDLs

135x10, 185x8, 205x8

Wide Grip Chins

10, 10, 9

And that's all folks. Short workout but it felt good. Slowly rebuild my confidence and see where I and OstaRX can go in the next few weeks. Does this stuff enhance your mood? I seem in a better mood all of a sudden, even though things have been crazy around me. Off tomorrow from the gym, do some more cooking probably after work. Be back soon.

Ok, it wasn't just me then....yeah I have been in a good mood too....i just thought it was the nice weather here in OH.

Cool. The nice weather doesn't hurt, that's for sure. But work has been insane lately. The starter is going out on my car, bills piling up, etc., and I have been cool as a cucumber the last few days. I need this stuff year round, lol.

[crawfBigG]

Another crazy day today. I'm not even going to go into it. More importantly let's discuss the fun stuff... Weight this morning: 201. Did basically a bunch of upper body stuff tonight. Also forgot to mention I do like 15 minutes of HIIT on my bike every morning except Saturday. Also on my diet I have increased the 1 oz of almonds to 2 oz, and I didn't include that I consume about 300 calories a day in coffee/creamer. I am a coffee freak, have been for years. (Not that anyone gives a shit about all this, I just like to lay it all out there, makes me feel like I'm being honest with myself, ignore all this crazy shit, lol)

Bench Press:
185x3, 205x3, 225x3, 245x3, 265x1, 275x1, 285x1

Dips:
1x12, +25x10, +45x10, +70x8, +90x5

Tricep Presdowns
140x12, 180x12, 220x8, 220x8

Side lateral raises
3 sets of 12

Wide Grip Pulldowns
3 sets of 10

Seated Supinated DB Curls
3 sets of 10

Really good pump tonight. Went in draggin' ass, came out feeling good. Lovin' the Osta so far!

It seems many of us have low back issues, trying to press heavy loads of weight for years on end, I guess something has to give at some point. It's nice to know it ain't just me if that makes sense. Speaking of which, this morning got up, felt good, slept good, about ten minutes into my day, making some coffee, all of a sudden cramp on the left side of my low back. Which immediately led to various expletives and equaled no cardio this morning. No biggie though, it loosened up throughout the day. Took today off from the gym, and did some cardio at home this evening on my bike. Hopefully back at it tomorrow. And the mood thing is awesome.
