Turkesterone 2 Week Log/Reviews & Gains
I took all these notes from my notebook, and copied them to blog (Jan. 11th - Jan. 22nd, 2010)

Monday January 11th

Body fat: 12%

Dumb Bell Curl (Max): 75lbs 1 rep
Leg Press: 705lbs.
(NOTE: On Workout days I drank a pre-workout drink with 1/2 a gram to 1 gram of turkesterone added in. Post workout I drank a whey protein drink w/ milk.)
On non-workout days I drank two protein drinks. One with a 1/2 gram of turkesterone before sleep.)
Monday 11th:
Chest & Back - 5 sets each; 8-10 reps at (75% capacity)
(15 min. cardio at beginning and end of workout)
70 min. total at gym
*Note - Felt surges in the gym. Energy was there when I needed it especially with back workouts.
Tuesday 12th:
Calves, Quads, Hamstrings - 5 sets each; 8-10 reps at (75% capacity)
(12 min. cardio at beginning and end of workout)
58 min. total at gym
*Note - Cardio was very easy. Didn't really breathe hard at all. Added a slight incline to achieve a thicker sweat. Energy was there during workouts, but tailed off. During the last few sets. Most likely because of incline.
Wednesday 13th:
Biceps, Triceps - 5 sets each; 8-10 reps at (75% capacity)
Lower Back (back extensions) 3 sets of 50 reps
(20 min. cardio at beginning and end of workout)

*Note - Really saw some veins popping out today. Last few reps were tough once again but all sets and reps were completed.
Thursday 14th:
Chest & Back - 5 sets each; 8-10 reps at (75% capacity)
(15 min. cardio at beginning and end of workout)

*Note - Surges of intensity were not as strong as Monday's workout, but still there & also felt like I could go heavier but held back.
Friday 15th:
Calves, Quads, Hamstrings - 5 sets each; 8-10 reps at (75% capacity)
Jump Rope
(12 min. cardio at beginning and end of workout)
