[JudgementDay]

Hope the rest keeps on feeling better, workout is looking great, keep up the good work!

 

[fumoney]

That didn't sound good. LOL

10 Min Elliptical Warmup

BB Bench: Barx15,135x12,185x10,225x7,245x2,245x2
Incline DB Fly:50x15,55x12,55x12
Decline BB Bench:185x15,230x8,230x8
Vbar Tri Press: 77kx15,77kx12,77kx9
Skull Crushers:90x12,90x9,90x8
Bench Knee Raises: 35

Still feeling a bit down in strength but overall a good workout. Had good energy and pump. Still dosing Lico preworkout. It really seems (for whatever reason) to attribute to the pump. Tomorrow is back and biceps.

The wrist is really starting to feel better. I'm hopeful that by the end of next month I'll be able to deadlift again. Which, would be great timing since I intend to start my winter bulk at the beginning of Sept.

That wrist injury is a funny thing. My wrist got tweaked today playing freaking volleyball. I dove for a ball and put my left hand down to support myself and jammed it slightly. Going to have to think about wearing wrist straps for everything.

Thanks JD. The wrist is much easier to deal with than the back! It sucks but it doesn't make anything else hurt. Just it.

I do that for a lot of things at least since I hurt it. For both mud runs I did I wore one and even sometimes doing yard work. LOL

 

[packers6211]

Hope the wrist continues to heal and nice incline db flyes man that is one of my weak exercises lol. Also nice declines!!

That didn't sound good. LOL

Yeah those are some nice DB flys, very strong lifts.

Rahl,

Just posted in your BB.com log, but I'll be keeping a watchful eye out here as well. Hoping you have a quick comeback for your wrist! I've been on these 2 supplements before and I already know the outcome you are going to have... keep PUSHING!

 

[Rahl]

10 min run warmup

Pullups:11,8,6,5
DB Row:75x11,95x10,105x8
Machine row:160x8,160x9,160x8
Incline DB curl:40x9,40x8,40x7
Bench knee raises: 30,30
DB hammer curls: 45x8,45x8,45x6

Last workout before I leave for the beach. Rows felt great! I forgot how much I love DB rows. I hadn't done them in quite some time until a couple of weeks ago.

Leaving Friday for the each and won't be back until Wednesday. Not sure what I'll do for exercise other than playing in the ocean the whole time. Maybe run or not. Depends on how things play out.

Workouts are looking strong man!

Lol. Thanks man. That's one of my stronger lifts. I have always loved them and when I was younger I was obsessed with my back so it's gotten a lot of work over the years. Keep killing them and you'll catch me!

Lol 60s is about the highest I've gone. I try and do holds at the squeezing part of the movement. 105lbs would tear my arm off!

I'm a stickler for form on anything but particularly on DB rows. I insist on full stretch and a hold at contraction. I do love to watch people's expression when I yank those 100's up!

[Rahl]

LMAO! I know!

Heres my workout for today.

 

[Rahl]

Final pic. I'll post up my final review a little later. In pretty happy with where I ended up considering I spent the last week not training and eating like a pig. Lol

 

[JudgementDay]

aha have a good workout!

Lookin lean still for eating like a pig

 

[packers6211]

Ripped shredder, cut, lean, my goodness bro nice final pic!

 

[Rahl]

Thanks guys! Feeling good for sure.

So here are my final thoughts.

Formula X:

Taste: 8/10

Very good flavor. Easy drinking and not overdone so it doesn't get sickening when using intra-workout.

Mixability: 7/10

Some settling but it mixes back up quickly.

Strength: 9/10

This is where I really saw the success of this product. It's my new DAA product hands down. My strength gains were just great.

Aggression: No noticeable difference here

Libido: 6/10

Good boost but nothing insane. I'm usually pretty "elevated" in this dept. anyway though.

Overall this is a great DAA supp and I love the added BCAA's that make it a perfect intraworkout product and allow me to cut down on how many supps I'm using when taking DAA.


LicoGenix:

Strength: I'm not going to give this a number other than to say alongside FormX my strength was way better while using these 2 products together.

Joint Pain: 10/10

No added joint pain at all. When I've run erase in the past I've had issues at 3 caps after a few weeks. With this...nothing.

Leaning: 7/10

This isn't a fat burner but it did dry me out a bit which was a huge plus. Let's face it, the last week of this log I was eating pizza and playing at the beach. I came back more lean than I left.

Overall I was pretty impressed with Licogenix. I would have to run it solo for a while to really judge it better. What I can say is that I've used DAA together with other AI's (Erase, Formastane) and my strength has never gone up so well. Considering I had an injured wrist for this entire time I have to say I'm very impressed with this stack. I think if I could of added a GDA like Need2Slin I could have really, really made some changes.

I would recommend giving both of these products a shot.

 

[packers6211]
