    Day 32

    Once again joints are feeling pretty good, SI joint started to bother me a bit during the shoulder presses other than that no problems. Workout got done in just under an hour.

    I have started to note some loss in strength, it would seem my extended cutting is catching up with me, I had originally planned on dropping calories further since the wildcard contest is finishing up, but have decided instead to just maintain at my current calorie level and just go with it and see where I wind up.

    4 sets 8 reps

    Standing BB Press - 75
    LF Chest Press - 100
    DB Step Ups 16in. - 5s
    Single Leg Curl - 75
    Pulldown, pron. - 140
    Decline Situps - 2.5

    Cardio - 20 min. Elliptical 3.2 mph Incline 2.

      Are you doing any type of carb / calorie cycling ? (I should know this but I'm dizzy from swimming )

        Yep carb/calorie cycling, but I've been cutting down for almost 6 months so its catching up with me. Carbs vary from 50-400 and cals from 2200-3500 depending on the day, averages out to about 2650. I'd actually gained strength from a cycle of DT, but haven't been able to keep it, still stronger than I was at this point a year ago though.

        Joints are once again feeling good, they actually replaced the swivel already , hopefully the bag is still up tomorrow. I may reintroduce deads and rack pulls next week if my SI continues to improve. Run went well after lifting, kept my time down under 7 min. again.

        4 sets 16 reps

        Seated Single Leg Press - 90
        High Cable Row - 45
        Incline DB - 40s
        Rope Pressdown - 50
        Hammer Curl - 15s
        Wide Upright Row - 45

        Cardio - 1 mile run 6:44

          Day 34

          Well day started out well, joints feeling good, workout went well up until the cardio, had my gloves today so I went all out at the bag and died in 20 mins. . I was literally having problems keeping my hands up towards the end, and I was drenched. It had been a few weeks since I'd gone all out but damn talk about losing conditioning for it fast. More bad news on a different front my SSII class didn't make so I may wind up with a 20 hour load in fall .

          4 sets 4 reps

          Pullups - BW
          Seated Hamstring Curl - 110
          BB Bench - 155
          Rev. Peck Deck - 100
          HS Seated Calf - 150
          Rev. Forearm Curl - 40

          Cardio - 20 mins. kickboxing with heavy bag.

              Day 35

              Woke up feeling quite good, joints started out pain free, but both the shoulder and knee acted up a bit during the workout, shoulder still has a dull ache, knee pain has gone away since though. Will probably be making some minor changes to the workouts next week, deads and rack pulls are definitely going back into the program, back and front squats and a few other exercises may also be coming back, Flat bench press and a few others will probably be out, I'll be mulling that over this weekend. Run wasn't quite as good this morning but still under 7 min.

              4 sets 8 reps

              VSquat - 180
              HS High Row - 140
              Cybex OH Press - 110
              Low Pulley Crossover - 120
              Seated DB Tri Ext. - 50
              Alt. DB Curl - 30s

              Cardio - 1 mile run 6:53.

                Day 36

                Woke up good today a little bit of an ache in the left shoulder other than that all was good. Upon further review deads are still out, tried them this morning and they don't feel right, rack pulls though are in, those felt fine so they got done today. BB Bench is out probably for good, will be replaced by incline flies. Workout went by quickly, followed by cardio with the heavy bag. On another note ordered myself a dipping belt which should be here the middle of next week.

                4 sets 16 reps

                Rack Pulls - 135
                Seated DB Press - 30s
                Assist. Dips - -75
                Single Leg Ext. - 55
                Pulldown, hammer grip - 80
                MTS Crunch - 20

                Cardio - 20 min. heavy bag.

                  Day 37

                  Woke up feeling good today, some minor irritation on the right SI, shoulders and knees feel good though. Lifting went smoothly, the run started a little slow due to some hamstring tightness/soreness, was off pace halfway through so I had to push myself harder than normal on the second half to keep the time down. Almost lost my breakfast afterwards .

                  Leg Press - 720
                  Incline BB - 155
                  Low Cable Row - 110
                  DB Lateral Raise - 30
                  One Arm Tri Pressdown - 60
                  Rev. CB Curl - 65

                  Cardio - 1 mile run 6:46.

                        Day 40

                        Woke up with a little stiffness in the left shoulder, other joints feel good. After a short warmup the shoulder was ready to go, and didn't give me any problems during the workout. Cardio afterwards went very well, slowly getting my conditioning for the kickboxing back.

                            Think I screwed up the day count somewhere along the way, oh well . Tomorrow marks the end of my Orange Triad bottle, thanks to PU and Controlled Labs for selecting me as a tester for this product.

                            Yesterday's workout went very well, joints continue to be minimally painful.

                            Value: 9/10 - ~$30 for a 45 day supply of multi + joint + digestive support is excellent, the only thing I could think of that would make this better would be the use of glucosamine hcl instead of glucosamine sulfate.

                            Effectiveness 10/10 - I'm going with this rating for joint and digestion aid, joint pain was generally a 1/10 with a few days here and there where the pain would flare up. I discontinued the use of Cissus 2 weeks ago and have not noted any increased pain since. I've noted being more regular, and having no gas issues since about a week into using the OT. No rating for the multi because well its a multi.
