8lbs!!!!!! Holy good night brother that's impressive. I just lost 6-7 but from the stomach virus lol not a way to drop weight trust me. How's the back holding up? I'll be starting my log soon as I get my stuff in bro, I had a rough morning waking up at 3am to noise. Walk outside and my new truck had 3 tires slashed and damage on roof where I rock got thrown from I can tell to break the glass in the back but they missed and went over the roof hitting my trailer and putting a hole in it. Filed police report and woke up hrs later to find out several in my neiborhood got vandilized vehicles. Cops belive a small high school gang hit us and couple more around our area. Sucks to say the least.

Thoughts
Well I liked the 1 scoop of Mesomorph+1 cap of Pro Xanthine 500-XT combo better then the Meso/N.O Ignite combo. Energy was awesome.
Had a killer workout, pushed myself hard from the get go, super aggressive every round, my endurance felt twice as better as last week, Im getting my speed and slick technique back, really worked on angles with combos and pivots, power felt good, couldn't have asked for a better workout, sweat like crazy, the heater was on full blast so it was hot! Lost 8 pounds during the workout!


LeanGain Diet thoughts- Can't comment too much on this yet but I am looking a bit leaner!

 

[JudgementDay]

I feel very bloated after meals, but overall the mirror has been good to me. Vascularity is way up around the clock it seems. Quad and calf veins are very noticeably popping out, legs have been progressing with splitting leg day into a quad day and a hamstring day. Abs go into hiding at night

It really depends on the time of day how I look! Morning post workout I look lean and ripped, post meal and evening I look/feel rotund though my wife says I'm still leaner than she is (she won't do family photos until she drops some weight). After I go for a run, I look somewhat in between.

Overall, too hard to assess right now, but I'd say I'm making good progress, and not too much fat though there is what I think is noticeable fat gain. Cryptic enough?

Very! lol Thanks!

Back is so so, pushed it a little harder tonight, taking it slow tho, I've already pulled it about 7 times in a 4 month time frame so I really don't want to pull it again, I must strengthen it slowly.

Wow that pisses me off, wtf do people have to act like that, now that is the reason I want to get rid of my Bat/Sword and get my gun licence lol. Thankfully I live in a good neigbourhood, but just in case something like that happends.....maybe I should look into an elephant tranquilizer gun LOL

Sorry to hear that bro, thats just not cool, hope they find who did it.

Today was a little frustrating running all over the place after taking Meso and didn't get to workout until an hour and a half later, I hate not taking my pre-workout on time! Besides that it was a nice light workout and felt really good!


LeanGain Diet thoughts- Looking leaner in the morning and during the workout, also when I got home the wife commented on how much leaner my upper back looked, so that was nice, I havn't had any complements from her in some time so I know for sure the back must be looking better lol

 

[JudgementDay]

Day 1 LeanGains diet/ PP contest!

Thought I'd start a new log for this, going to try the LeanGains and enter the Andromass contest, as long as I think the after pictures are good enough lol. I took before pics today but forgot the news paper so I'll redo them tomorrow. I got enough fat to lose, gained quite a bit since then with injuries and all lately, I'll give this diet at least 4 weeks to see how it works for me.

Will keep trying to improve overall strength and endurance, hopefully I can get the lower back up and running 100% in the next 4-6 then I'll be going back to the MMA gym and putting all my time into that. But for now this will do lol.

Recently changed up how im doing weight training, pretty much doing tons of extra sets rippin the muscle tissue up aha, fingers crossed this change helps overall performance.

Went with 1 rounded scoop and half a scoop of Meso, holy shizzzz, little to much for me lol, will stick with 1 rounded scoop!
Right now I'm taking Mesomorph/ Creatine and Super Cissus. Will be done the Meso and Creatine Friday.

Bench press didn't go as well this week but for some reason after 225x5 my right shoulder felt overly pumped and sore, I believe I havn't healed up from fridays full body workout. So went a little lighter through the workout but still got an amazing pump and very sick intense workout. Skipping 1min sprints with 30 sec rest is fun, I am a jump rope whore LOL.

i could have save you the trouble JD 1 1/2 scoops = :fool2: a bit much

 

[ssbackwards]

Ya not a diet I would use for bulking, but seems like this may work as a good recomp/Cut type diet.

ill be using it on my bulk and itll be very successful. Guarenteed.

 

[packers6211]

lol I'll be drinking some soon, I orderd some as well to stack with androlean, androhead, phyto, creatine nitrate, mesomorph and liver juice. I read today that the cops ended up responding to over 30 incidents involving vandalized cars, and few business. They belive it to been a Friday 13th prank. All I can say is we have never had any of these type problems before and if I ever hear a noise at night and investigate to find someone up to no good, then it's target practice for me lol. Your workout looked awesome today bro really pushing it. I hope to start my soon. Take care and keep up the killer routines.

Drinkin some blue rasp xtend........lol

 

[anabolicRyan1]

Hey. Great log so far.

Looking forward to seeing how this diet works for you. I was pretty into fasting for a while but got scared out of it by being told the body goes after new muscle first when its calorie deprived.


Deff subbed.

 

[Milas]

I checked with JD, and he's cool with a quick hi-jack:

Please check out this thread and help decide who REALLY made the biggest transformation over the last 3 months. There are a lot of 1-post wonders added in May 2011 voting, but the REAL AM members should make the choice!

Subadubdubbed. Sorry I'm late. Been a crazy busy few days. I was trying to read Kleen's entire thread about the LG diet! LOL

Glad to see you running it. Now I can just follow your log and see how you like it.

 

[MrKleen73]

Good stuff JD, and yeah it is about Lean Gains although I don't know why people keep saying they could not bulk on it... If you have read the science behind the diet and understand that there is not catabolism of muscle during the fasting period and you can eat not so clean choices to get your calories in I just don't understand where the problem would be in bulking... A big steak will get you a long way toward your caloric goals. Some fats, some bagels, think nutrient dense guys... Not only that but trust me the longer you are on the easier it is to consume larger meals. I can really kill some food now when i want to. The owners crying as I left the Chinese buffet after my Saturday lift proves that.

Case in point, I'm gaining and not all of it is fat like a normal natty bulk

 

[MrKleen73]

I started Lean Gain over 13% @ 198 lbs in the end of Jan, beginning of February. I weighed in this morning 199.5 lbs 9.5% now I have had some muscle memory assisting me with gaining some of that LBM back but the numbers just don't lie and if this wasn't good for building I just would not have had that much LBM come back on in 3-4 months while dropping body fat if that was the case.

I haven't been to a Chinese buffet bar in a minute, but when I did, I used to rape and pillage.

I hope this goes good for me, so far so good! You still doing that Meso/N.O Ignite Combo? You gotta try the Finaflex Pro-Xanthine XT 500/Meso combo, now that was awesome

Case in point, I'm gaining and not all of it is fat like a normal natty bulk

I may have to try this on a bulk....yet not sure if I can restrict myself once I get a taste of a too many yummy carbs lol

I haven't been to a Chinese buffet bar in a minute, but when I did, I used to rape and pillage.

mmmm Chinese food, damn just like I said if I check out your log your talking about food making me all hungry on this diet and now you come in hear talking about delicious chinese food.....I have one thing to say....I"VE NEVER!!!!! jk lol

Thoughts

Well didn't have the best day, anyways to make it even better once I'm 3 sets into my workout the fire alarm goes off....ugh, so I had to stand outside for like 15 min and took about 25min all together to get back to training, that through me off but just fed the rage.

I didn't lift as heavy as I wanted but there is many things that could have interfered, such as- no spot, lack of sleep, stress and just all around bad luck with the fire drill. Would like to try the same workout next week and try more weight on the overhead DB press, I'll give 80's a shot next week. Felt like I'd feed the rage with my last 100mg of CEL Formestane today lol. Also was planning to get off caffeine but my day wasn't going good and felt like screw it I'm having my pre-workout. Will drop caffeine starting tomorrow.

Killed this workout, there was no way I was in the mood for swimming laps, so just did a light 15min jog, would have done more and want too but my ankle is still healing and the shoes I have right now suck and need to get running shoes asap.

LeanGain Diet thoughts- wow looked so much leaner during my workout it was crazy, looking forward to how my strength is next week with this diet. So far, so good!

 

[RickRock13]

Down 6 lbs already! Good stuff man! :bigok:

 

[Rahl]

Good stuff JD. A fire drill!? Really!? WTF!? LOL

That's a bad day. Yeah, I'm still doing the Meso/ignite combo or the N2KTS/ignite combo. I have some AMP02 laying around that I might try stacking with the ignite too. I'll have to try that combo you suggest too. I've become a typical preworkout junkie at this point.

So, looking leaner already? That's fast! I'm wondering how I can fit this diet into my schedule. I'm doing some thinking. Kleen might be getting a pm soon. LOL

 

[Milas]

Speaking of food, I went to my local Indian buffet last night. $6 and I ate over 3K calories! Butter chicken, naan, tandoori chicken, samosas, saag, curry vegetables, gulab jamun, mmmmmmm..... It was epic, and cleared me out this morning!

THAT'S what LeanGains is all about right thur!

 

[MrKleen73]

JD sounds like great progress so far. Frustrating with the fire drill during training. Ugh! At least you finished it. I would have had to fight myself not to say screw it. However would have probably stayed with it in the end.

Man now you have me craving indian buffet! Thanks! I want some lamb, some hummus and flat bread, curry anything! Man I am hungry this morning. Lifted and waiting for my fast breaking meal. Ugh!!!! That is okay, I am going to enjoy it today. I have a few different things I can eat up here and just need to decide if it is gonna be rice or a bagel for carbs. MMMMMM MMMM Good! Just ready to tear some food up.

A healthy way to get a curry fix is to just buy curry and tumeric powder, coat some chicken with it, and bake. Not as good as the real curry, but it can satisfy an Indian craving (a little at least)! Either that or the Kithens of India paste stuff off of Amazon, that's pretty good too and not that bad for ya. The restaurant stuff seems deadly by comparison!

Yeah, the Indian/Arabic curried food is tasty, but I don't wonder why there aren't many Indian body builders! All the carbs and fats with little meat, yikes!

Very happy with the diet this far and that fire drill was not fun, way to make my day lol

Parting ways with APS

Hey guys, I just wanted to let everyone know I am no longer an APS Nutrition Representative, I won't go into details on why I have decided to leave the company, but I have nothing against APS Nutrition what so ever, they are a great company with amazing products, I wish them the best



Thank you all for the amazing support you have given me, AM is a great community and I am honored to be a part of this amazing forum.

 

[JudgementDay]

Nice AVI update

Just like to say that pic is of me at 175lbs when I was really leaner lol, it's good motivation for me

On a good note woke up at 185lbs today and again looking a bit leaner.

you were only how much over maintence? on off days as well, cardio everyday?

Well, I was taking in 2700-3000 on workout days and between 1500 and 2000 on cardio only days. I do real cardio 3 times a week, and go for a walk at lunch most days at work. So I was doing about maintenance + 25% on workout days and maintenance - 30% on cardio days. I was not counting everything just going with ranges and estimations by keeping a count of grams of protein, carbs and fats as I went along just not weighing all of my food, going by estimated weights of the foods. Remember though I have been tracking my food for years so I have a very good idea of what a serving of each type of food looks like. If not that versed in it definitely weigh your food.
