Another week on! And now received my Recovery XS from Myprotein; which isn't going to last long given my high volume training! 1800 g with 90g per serving = 20 servings, basically £1 per drink!

However, I was very keen to get on with it due to the fact it has creatine in it - never really been interested in supplementing to this level, but what the hell, if it helps, why not? Taking the recommended amount right after a workout. So, before I had any, I needed to do a workout and monitor any progress later down the line..

Monday 20th April

Basic weights session; keeping with 70 kg Bench Press sets to monitor any improvement for the foreseable future:
No legs today (bike ride coming up), so
1 arm rows, Bench Press, Flyes, Curls, Shrugs, Shoulder press, tricep kickbacks, incorporating plenty of ab work as usual.
Concentrating on the Bench Press, at 70kg, three sets, aiming for max on last, so 2 x 8 and 1 x 10.
Will continue with this and see how that last set goes.
Drank my new shake! Tastes all right really, heard a lot of specualtion about the taste of creatine, but all I noticed was the white chunks floating about! nice, chocolate flavour, but was a but powdery, but easy to drink.
