Hello all,
I have been fortunate enough to be selected to log Hi Tech's new laxogenin product. I do have a couple of questions on this product for the reps before I begin:
1. What is the dosing protocol for this product? Should I take everyday or just on training days? I understand that laxo increases protein synthesis, so I would imagine that it would be dosing everyday, but I do not want to waste any, so I ask just to make sure.2,
2. Would Hi Tech prefer that I stop using my staples: basically everything in ergonine?
With that out of the way I will be attempting to make lean gains during this run. My strategy is to hit all rep ranges throughout the week. My heavy sets will be cluster sets. In order to overload mechanical damage, I will also be using sets consisting of 7-8 heavy eccentrics followed immediately by 8 4010 reps at a lower weight. I will also be incorporating tri sets with a 6, 12, 20 rep scheme in order to accumulate density and lactic acid. These sets will be for a separate body part aside from what I am training heavy that day. I.e. Heavy legs with 6,12, 20 for Biceps.
I will also be incorporating drops sets with intraset weighted stretching ala Ben Pakulski's Mi40.
special emphasis will be placed on arms and shoulders. They will get more frequency and perhaps earlier priority than my other muscle groups.
I have been following a 2800 kcal diet but have also been doing twice a day training, therefore I am going to drop to 2600 kcals and go from there. My protein intake will be increased to around 250 g/day in order to take advantage of laxo's effects on protein synthesis. My fats and carbs will be adjusted based on whether I train that day, what groups I train, etc. I have developed a pretty good metabolic flexibility this past summer. This was confirmed by a genetics test that I had done. In short, if I need the carbs, I'm using them. Also due to recommendations from the same test, I am going to keep my saturated fat intake below 22g/day.
The details to my training sessions will be elaborated upon in days to come after I receive the product. Pics to come as well.
Any questions/ suggestions are welcome, and I will get to them as soon as I get a chance.
