@man05 i would say in your situation the protein vs gas is digestion

a few things to consider

how much probiotics you take?
how much psyllium husk do you take?
how my digestive enzymes do you take?

and you didnt jack up doses what you doing? still pretty low

Hey man, thank you for these tips. The husk supplement I found at the pharmacy was a great suggestion, that really helped me out. I also got a 10ml lion active live culture probiotic tablet that I took as well. Pharmacist said the protein buildup and consumption can cause excessive nitrogen, gas and minor bloating. She said the items you suggested were perfect for alleviating this. She suggested fresh pineapple as it has a chemical called bromalin in it but advised not to eat too much or you’ll get diarrhea. Her suggestion was to take daily for 7-10 days then back off to eod or as needed.

Thank you so much, spot on!

stay hydrated ... well-hydrated.

I’m at or around a gallon per day, I consume electrolytes during and after workouts. I wake up at least 2x per night just to go urinate.

@man05 you should also add digestive enzymes and bromalin is one of them but you should get a digestive enzyme stack
start fiber daily you dont need EOD

 

[man05]

I am on it, the extra fiber has made a huge difference and I’m more regular now. I will hit Walgreens tomorrow for a proper digestive enzyme, will have Friday and Saturdays updates late tonight or early tomorrow, on the road today in Georgia for soccer.

Have a great day, thank you

Here are my weights: I was able to rack up more weight on squats and I just man handled the bar and did it with a belt locked tight. Very close to parallel when I go down, felt pretty strong on the last reps but I know that pushing it any further is when accident happen. My thighs were ballooned for most of the day, some super sweet veins popping out.

10/27/2023​	Bent Over Dumbell Row (underhand)	3x8	110lbs (55lbs each)
	Bent Over Dumbell Row (overhand)	3x8	140lbs (70lbs each)
	Single arm DB rows	3x8	85lbs
	RDL dumbell row	3x8	170lbs(85lbs each)
	DB pullover	3x8	70lbs
	Shrugs	3x8	275lbs
	Choose a split exercise to alternate
	Split exercises below:
	V-Taper row	n/a	n/a
	Reverse flys	3x8	20lbs each
	Dumbbell Rows - high rep off bench	1x50	65lbs
	Close grip bench press - Triceps	3x8	205lbs
	Tricep Kickbacks	3x8	35lbs each
	Rolling Tricep extension on decline	3x8	35lbs each
	Reverse grip straight bar	3x8	70lbs
	DB Hammer curl - sideways	3x8	40lbs
	Forearm Curls	3x8	35lbs each
	DB Curls – Standing	2x50	20lb each
10/28/2023​	Squats	3x8	315lbs
	Sumo Squat BB	4x12	250lbs

	Glute bridge raise with barbell	3x10	135lbs using barbell
	Calf raise (straight, pro, sup)	4x8	205lbs
	Burnout Squats	1x50	135lbs

Would an example of hypertrophic work for squats be 4x50 @135lbs, could you gain size that way?

Thank you all, I will be updating Tuesday night for the first half of this week.
