so instead of drugs or drinking i returned to the
weights and juice i guess thats a drug lol in this last 2 yrs I've tried everything, to train like i was at the intensity at 28 uh not happening, Im at the point now where i got to be happy with me at 195 0r 200 cuz if i get any stronger I'm gonna get
more achy and hurt, so my long ass point here is regardless of this routine that was posted the high reps will keep you
lifting longer,
as your pump issue i find natural or not its the time between sets that dictates the pump, Corey you and many other naturals have done it all and still don't look huge its genes id still be 170 or less i bet if it wasn't for juice but let me say i wish i didn't do it seriously i had a crappy sexdrive till androgel came out and now I'm only on 300 test a week, I'm done with deca and eq I've been reading or maybe looking for negative stuff and I've found it, Another thing is with this routine to go to failure and getting to heavy
weights on so many sets i think will take a cns toll i feel like crap for the last 4 days i overdid it.
