    Yea I'm all in for the recovery.
    I'll admit I slacked off a few days ago and had 2 glasses of wine. Wasn't worth it at all.
    I had a headache the entire next day and the tinnitus was back very heavy. I won't be drinking
    again till I'm fully recovered. Not gonna risk losing progress or hurting my mind any further.
    My body just can't handle the stress of alcohol right now.

    I've cut out so much junk from my diet, one of the major things was soda especially pepsi and coke.
    Now I'm eliminating all foods that contain natural flavors and chemical food coloring in the ingredients.
    They apparently affect the mind from what I've read. It seems "natural" flavors probably manipulate the pleasure centers in the brain. And they probably down regulate things; thats just my guessing.

    I'm getting a forced rest for hopefully no more than a week. Looks like I over-did the running/sprinting smh.
    Never had this issue in the past and I ran/sprinted much more than now.
    Good news is no bones are broken and it appears to be nothing more than a tendon/ligament injury.
    This could easily kill my motivation but I won't let it.
    I'll get better and take it slower on my way to 100% recovery.

    Keep at it everyone. Don't be discouraged!

    How did you do that?

    I remember when I first started I got bad shin splints. I stepped back and took it slower, and built up to it. Sprints can easily wreck you if you're not careful.

    It happened to me once, did not wait enough for tendon to heal and
    Made it worse. I would recommend using an ankle / knee supporter and doing a bit of therapy. Swimming is also a good option while you recover

    Someone once asked a man how he was. He replied, “I’m going through hell!” Said his friend: “Well, keep on going. That is no place to stop!”

    Update:

    My ligament/tendon injury is pretty much at 80% healed. Another couple of weeks and my leg should be at 100%.
    I also started losing the fat/weight gain. The fat was sticking to me but its finally melting away.
    I hope to see the muscle definition like before!

    Update:

    Ear sensitivity to loud noises is almost gone.

    Getting deeper sleep lately and vivid dreams.

    My body continues to respond well to weight training after recovering from injury.

    Mind/body sexual connection coming back; still VERY weak but atleast it's there now.

    Given your progress it'll give you a basic idea as to how much longer you need to keep going. Although you will have surges of healing you can use your progress as someone of a benchmark

    Keep at it

    Amen to this. I had a few surges, but for the most part, it was the same steady baseline improvement each time. Keep on truckin, bud.
    There ain't no traffic along the extra mile.

    Never Quit.

    YOU MUST START THE REGIMEN TODAY if you ever took fin or sp

    I thought I dodged a bullet when I stopped taking fin in Jan 2016.
    I was crashing and didn't even know it because the symptoms were so minor that I barely noticed them.
    It wasn't till about October 2016 that my body completely broke down.
    Looking back now, I see the signs I missed and wish I would've started the regimen then.
    Things could've been easier and I may not have crashed if I had someone advise me to follow this path.

    I can't go back in time but I know I will recover someday.

    If you took fin or sp even once, get on the regimen.
    If you think you dodged a bullet or the docs say don't worry...GET ON THE REGIMEN.
    You will have a much easier time and may even prevent yourself from crashing.

    It's not worth waiting around or over-thinking

    Research the protocol if you have doubts but start it now as you research. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. It's all to your benefit.

    At the very least you will take your strength, energy, stamina, mind and HEALTH to levels beyond most men.

    Muscle/Skin Issue:

    So far my body is feeling better and better.
    I'm finally getting strength gains in the gym, but I'm not sure if I'm gaining muscle mass again.
    (I did lose muscle when I crashed)
    The issue I'm having is the excess skin I have. I notice a few wrinkles in my bicep area that had none before.
    The definition isn't there like before and neither is the healthy vascular vein look.

    Has anyone experienced this issue and how did you combat it?
    How do we get the definition and lean look back? Also whats up with the wrinkles?
