Hooray for supplements

So my supplements showed up earlier than I expected yesterday which was a nice unexpected surprise.  The chewable amino acid tablets are different but they're not horrible.  The pump-bol is fucking awesome!!!!  I took one scoop yesterday even though I wasn't going to the gym because it was a rest day; the pump I got from that stuff was unreal.  I took 2 scoops tonight when I went to the gym to do shoulders and I got an incredible pump; I got some nice focus as well.  It's been a long time since I had a pre-workout supplement that has worked this great.  My doctors appointment went well today.  Nothing new to report to her; the only thing that we discussed was that the weaning off the drugs will start at the end of the month.  The only hardcore pain right now is the muscle soreness; its freakin unbelievable right now.  And as far as my back is concerned its sore and stiff but nothing like its been before.  I really should have done this surgery sooner, but either way I'm glad I got it done.  Plus the time off from work is super awesome; and it also gives time to get everything in order in case the Air Force decides to kick me out.  I'm really hoping that they medically discharge me; I'm so sick and tired of the fucking bullshit that goes on here.  Its funny because you would think that you would get smarter as you make rank and gain job experience throughout the years.  But unfortunately it doesn't work like that; its exactly the opposite.  I have busted my ass over the past 10 yrs and I have got nothing but shit in return.  Actually that's not true; I now have 8 screws, 4 brackets, and 2 rods holding my lower spine together.  Sad part is that I'm only 29 yrs old; surgeries like that usually are for people 15-20 yrs older than I am.  All this crap has just made me stronger and more bitter lol.  I'm done ranting and spilling my guts for tonight; so peace.

Another day down

Knocked out chest and triceps today.  Did some incline flys, hammer machine incline press, and the pec deck machine.  For triceps I did some close grip press downs, regular tricep push downs, and then some dumb bell work.  My back barely bothered me throughout the entire thing; but its probably from taking a pain pill an hour before.  Plus I had a pretty decent pump through the entire workout which was a definite plus.  Also I have been noticing that my workouts have been lasting a lot longer; when I first started back at the gym I could barely make it through 30-45 mins.  Tonight I was in there for about an hour; so my stamina/endurance is definitely getting better.  Other than the gym today was kind of boring; finally watched "the warriors way" and it was badass.  Wasn't expecting much from that movie and it impressed me from beginning to end.  My supplement order will be on my door step around 3 p.m. and I will post my thoughts on them as soon as I use'em.  Also trying to decide whether or not to continue this whole blogging thing.  I'm only 4 posts in and I guess I was expecting more; like some comments by now or something.  I'll give it a month and then figure out whether or not to keep this thing going.
