Over the past week, I have been laid up and sick. Im on day 9 out of the gym, but its probably a good thing to give my body some much needed rest. But, I have noticed before I got sick, I felt like I was in a great growth phase. For about 8 weeks, I felt like I was making good gains, in muscle. I felt like I wasnt putting on much bodyfat, or holding to much water. I felt pumped and super full all the time. I was eating really good, my bodyweight was slowly coming down. I think I was down to 262-264lbs. I was starting to look pretty decent. I just felt like I was growing. My eating was up, my strengh was good (even though I was focusing more in volume, and reps) I was doing alot of mountaindog stuff. I just felt big, and full. Do you ever feel like your just growing and making gains. Do you notice that you feel differnt. Maybe sex drive up, just everything your eating going to the muscle cells. You can watch yourself get bigger and fuller after eating a big meal. Just curious if anyone else notices how you feel on a good growth cycle.
