So just use my “fuck it” way of training again :thinking:

The unique thing about that way of working out is that I use so many different programs’ workouts.
For example: Chest on Saturday would be fst-7 style, but then Sunday’s back workout would be a Pull workout from DUP, or legs on Wednesday might follow the 5x5 style.

So on the surface level it looks very random, but the reason for it is because each body part of mine responds better to different “principle” of training.

Hmmmmm :thinking:

@Ice was running them before the testing, in a stack together, he could tell you how they felt together.

Also in my opinion, those 2 along with Chosen (to smooth out the “assholeness”) would be a killer stack for pure domination out of love, attraction and fear.

I plan on adding Chosen a little later on. I’m pretty excited about that.

Thanks @Invictus @Gilligan it was cool running both together but in retrospect I regret it. Results were far too diluted between the two and energy requirements were quite draining. It kind of pulls you in two directions of two different archetypes. It was smooth at times but if I were to go back in time I’d personally commit to one path and stick to that.

Seems like ZP is making you aware of exactly what your body needs

What the hell :slight_smile:

So 2 things happened;

1- remember y’all how I kept saying “Spartan wants me to cut”, well, I just realized that it doesn’t want me to cut, but to stop eating junk to bulk.
How did I realize?
Basically, I’ve been noticing that I keep rushing to the toilet everytime I eat something unhealthy, but if I ate something healthy (or at least not too bad), I stay good and don’t necessarily have to go to the toilet immediately, it’s almost as if Spartan flushed it out of my system almost instantly.

2- this happened multiple times during the private test, but I was just in the bathroom washing my face and all, and I blinked, which, for a split second, flashed an image in front of me before it went away.

In the image it was me, in a tight white T-shirt, posing with my bicep, and it looked huge (much bigger than now), and it only happened after the realization :thinking:.

So I’m fixing the dirt from tomorrow, and I’m going to take shit even more seriously now, I realize I haven’t really been that serious with my diet and all, and even second guessing how to train, but fuck all this bs, I’m going to do this shit more seriously from now on.

Y’all ain’t ready for what I’m about to bring to the table :muscle:t3::sunglasses:

When I went to bed last night, I felt like I was fully awake and asleep at the same time, almost as if I switch between the states at will.
When it was time to wake up today, I thought to myself “fuck man, I’ll have to take a nap”, well, 30 mins after thinking that I ended up getting a surge of energy that straight up made me realize that I did rest enough, though the whole experience did feel somewhat weird and new :thinking:

Anyways, don’t know if I mentioned it yesterday but yesterday was my Spartan + Wanted day, today’s a rest day, and tomorrow shall be Chosen.

ahhhhhh

this is getting annoying, I went to the toilet like 7 times already WTF.

I woke up today weighing 72.2, and now I’m 70.8, WTF!!!

I realized that the amount of food I actually need to sustain both WZP and SZP is just way too high for me because today I crossed the 3.5k calories threshold and just got myself some chicken, shrimp, and sausage pasta, AT 1 AM!!!

this wasn’t the case on WZP alone with Chosen, so with this in mind, I’m stopping Spartan ZP, I learned a valuable lesson from it, which helped me overcome my fears in the gym that were a result of bad past experiences, however, I’m physically and mentally exhausted from the bathroom trips :sob:

so the plan is:

bulk with WZP

cut with SZP


for now, I’m just going to run WZP with Chosen, and add RICH ZP to the mix.
when it’s time to cut (maybe when I reach 75-77), I’ll switch WZP with SZP.

@Sinusoid @Ice @Deadpool @NinjaGazin @Melior @GoldenTiger this soldier is down, Spartan is too strong for this boy for now, he needs some milk (actually no, im lactose intolerant and that will make it worse :cry:), i’m going back to my OG stack of “WCR”.

You are too empty :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Seriously, are you sure you are not sick?

That’s what I thought

I’m someone who need to eat a lot to stay at the same weight or gain a bit, this weight loss seems quite fast, too fast for a day, it would mean, else you measure at night usually and now in the morning, but I doubt you’d make that mistake.

Or there is something, like you went for the big delivery, and you saw your real weight, or yeah your a bit dehydrated or maybe slightly sick without noticing, so a lot of possibilities here

Well everything else is fine about me and it only started after Spartan.

This is the reason I kept saying that I feel like Spartan wants me to cut, because it keeps emptying my stomach soon as I’m done eating.

The first measurement was after I woke up in the morning and went to the bathroom, it was 72.2, so I was like fine.
The second measurement was taken at night, after my 7 rounds (I actually went 2 more times after that).

So today is Chosen’s day anyways, I won’t add rich yet, I’ll wait some days (till the next WZP day), and if I’m good before the next supposed listening day of Spartan, then I’ll give it another go.

My body’s already like “HELL NO” :rofl::rofl::rofl::thinking:

So after talking to a certain someone, I came to the realization that I’m just being a bitch with the subs I add and remove (GMX and now Spartan).

Like let’s talk about GMX ZP for a moment:
The sub DID improve a lot of my attributes and skills (thinking, analyzing, decision making), however, the reason why the results didn’t ”satisfy” me personally is because of the game I play, not the sub.

Spartan right now is the same, it literally is about discipline with training and DIET.
Lemme say that again: DIET.

The issue here is all me, I bulk with dirty junk food, because it always helped me gain weight, but that does NOT agree with the goals of SZP, so what do you think will happen?
There’s a form of rejection from inside my body, and what’s not good for my physique is literally getting kicked out, Spartan is doing that because it wants what’s best for my body.

This is a fault on my part to be honest, and I realize that my choices are as follows:

  • keep listening to Spartan and change the diet to a fully clean one,
    Or
  • stop Spartan and bulk dirty with WZP without any extra physical tech.

Now am I at the stage where I’m comfortable doing a cut with a clean diet and all? No, I need a bit more size, at the very minimum 77kg before I cut.

So it’s not a bad thing what I went through, it has made me more conscious of what I was doing, and if I was the type who was comfortable doing a pure clean bulk, I would have, but it’s not as easy for me (I tried for years).

So to conclude: I will still do another test today, since Spartan is technically still running in my subconscious from Thursday’s loop (you can’t just say “I’ll stop this sub” and expect the effects to just go away), I will eat more junk food today and see how my body reacts.

I have a feeling I can “tame” Spartan to my will, because my dirty bulking diet is still considered a strategy that has been used for years by bodybuilders.

Furthermore, I also suspect that there might be another culprit at play here.
My girlfriend reminded me that it could be my protein powder (some don’t sit well with me due to lactose), so I shall be stopping that again, and observe.
If everything goes well till Monday (next listening day), then Spartan stays.
