Haven't figured out dosages...
I've really been looking forward to trying it after following Breezy's log. Forgot to add Glycergrow to that pre
Nice looking pre you got there buddy. I've been missing ArA all week. Thankfully its finally coming via Priority Mail on Monday. I'm gonna see how this bottle works for a recomp/cut.I've really been looking forward to trying it after following Breezy's log. Forgot to add Glycergrow to that pre
So if I remember correctly I need to stop taking fish oil during the ArA run... and when do I take the GMS (Glycergrow)? All at the same time with everything else? Slightly beforehand? What about off days (no ArA)?
You don't necessarily have to stop the fish oil, but it was recommended to me. If you continue to use it, just try to take it as far away from ArA dosing as possible. I always took my GMS within a couple mins of ArA dosing. I tried different timing (before/with/after), but didn't notice any change in effects. You don't need to take it on off days. I've used mine strictly with ArA, but it can help with pumps/fullness on its own.So if I remember correctly I need to stop taking fish oil during the ArA run... and when do I take the GMS (Glycergrow)?

Thanks sir
!
No problem DJ!Thanks sir
Hmmm guess it has been awhile huh? Can't wait another week for the final review?
Maybe I'll shoot a preview shot today after my workout.
I added in some alcar with the ara dose as well
Same here (2g). The LCLT from Formula-X will serve the same purpose, but I prefer the extra focus I get from ALCAR. I'm actually going to use both when I start back up.
Damn dj you looking hugeDAY 38: BACK/BIS
CURRENT WEIGHT: 235lbs
Lucky winner of the day for preworkout was MusclePharm's Assault. I just played the mystery crane/claw game and stuck my hand in the bag of samples and whatever came out... thats what I took. Can't say I was too impressed. Low energy, no focus, mediocre taste
DEADLIFT: 135x10 185x6 225x6 275x5 (felt heavy!) 315x3 350x1 185x6,7,6 135x10

HAMMER CURL: 45x8,5+3@40 40x8,8L/7R
INCLINE DB CURL: 25x8, 5+3@20 20x6,8 I thought my biceps were going to EXPLODE they were so pumped
STANDING DB CURL: 30x4 LOL nope the pump was too much... 15x10,10
Was happy about getting that 350x1 deadlift. I was scared because 275 felt SO heavy and I almost had trouble with the last 2 reps. 315 was a breeze so I knew it was time to test the waters. Felt great. Spent a helluva lot more time in the gym than I meant to because someone ended up chatting me up about my deadlift form because they wanted to see if they were doing it correctly. Kinda took me outta the zone but I like to be helpful.
Stay tuned,
Looking good DJ. Guns look good and I can see real nice separation in and as well. Getting really cut. Great job !DAY 38: BACK/BIS

Id call you Djbigpole but that would sound weird ?
What's weird about that? Lol
Much thanks gentlemen. Did you guys see the back pic I put up on the last page? AaronJP1 spurred me to take some pics so I could see for myself. I can see more change in the mirror than the camera picks up though which has me scratching my head. I have most certainly gone up in weight and I'm not the only one who has noticed. Unfortunately, and IMO, I've put on a nice little layer of fluff across my belly... which was expected. My abs don't show through quite as much as they used to and I (and this may sound weird/hard to explain) feel my shirts fitting differently... like my stomach sticks out slightly now and I can feel my shirts catching on it more than I used to which makes me uncomfortable
BUT like I said I was expecting that so FFFUUUUUUU!Oh I don't know... just start calling me Dirk Diggler while you are at it
Personal preference. I'll go more into that when I get done at the gym. Just pulled up.
Kill it brother, You are definitely showing size and strength gain! Lets make it all the way to 300lbs with yah

Only one PR today. I blame two things. Myself for not giving myself a day of rest from doing Back/Bis yesterday and second my ****ty preworkout! NO-XPlod v2 sucked! I didn't feel a damn thing! Some beta-alanine sensitivity at the beginning that faded and a lack of energy towards the end of the workout. Disappointed. I miss you, SpeedX3
Stay tuned,
DJ
I have always done them on back day for as long as I can remember. But ever since their incorporation into my workouts I was using the wrong form which always involved more of my back. Now that I've changed things up I can see how they would be suited for leg day because my quads definitely got sore after doing them for awhile. However, I find my leg day to be taxing enough. Between squats, front squats, and leg press I don't think I'd be able to managed adding deadlifts in. Even if I did, they would be SLDL instead of conventional which is beneficial for the use of the lower posterior chain. I've just gotten used to it as part of my back routine!
Do elaborate please Marms, I have not grasped the meaning of this sentence at all.
Haha! I know I know... but it was just a little sample and I figured why not! Besides it shows what stacks up to SpeedX3 which is NADA at the moment
!Yea its kinda fun. Not quite sure what I'll get!
I literally have them all sitting in a plastic bag and I don't look when I stick my hand in there so it literally IS a claw game just like the ones you see in Walmart!
His sticking his hand in the bag of samples to see what pwo he will use for that day.
On a lower body day they would be most beneficial. You don't have to pull every week, specially if you have been taxing the CNS with Dead Lifts, Squats , Front squats all along. However I would never recommend someone squating the same day as deadlifting anyhow. I would say you can do Dead Lift (SLDL and/or Sumo Deadlifit) on Leg Days every other week instead of Squats, or simply have 2 lower body days, one for Pulling (dead, SLDL) and Posterior Chain activation (Good Mornings, Bridges) with core engagement, AND another lower body day for Pushing , Hamstring/Quad engagement and core engagement too. Alas one day for Deads, and one for Squats. It is just my opinion, but changing the manner of the lifts will stimulate the CNS better, and not to mention will be better for the metabolic advantages they pose for bulking.I have always done them on back day for as long as I can remember.

Oh I gets it now! Hahaha
This would not work with prodigy samples since they are in the little bottles you would know what you are picking.View attachment 68612
Just my metaphor for how I'm choosing what preworkout to use
Dump them in Zip Lock Baggies and label them Prodigy, do that with all the other samples...thus it's fair.
