| Applied Nutriceuticals Rep. Board Sponsor | DAY 17 Chest Flat Dumbell Press- 50sx30, 85sx12, 100sx14, 100sx16(I've been focusing so much more on stressing the muscle with chest that my strength is a little lower than normal, but I still feel 10times better than I normally do on a cut) Triset of HiInclineFlye/LoInclineFlye/FlatFlye- 3 sets of 10reps each with 40s on all sets Triceps Dumbell Brainbusters- warmup, triple drop with weights of 40/30/20lbs til failure on each set. Dumbell Incline Tricep Extensions- 50x50, 65x50(My lower back was just hurting like crazy on these so I couldnt go heavy) StraightBar Pushdowns- warmup, 2 sets with stack til failure Reverse Pressdowns- 2 sets w/stack till failure LatMachine Dips- stack for 2 sets of 20 Overall Impressions So Far Im at 224 and the most ripped I have ever been. My waist is down another halfsize at least. My girl is all over me and just loves how lean and veiny I am. My strength is pretty much where it was a few months back when I was at 251, so thats just freaking crazy. I am sleeping like a baby every single night, which Im sure is from the IGF-2. My joints are still completely painfree which means Osteo is doing its job. The leanness and hardness can be attributed to RPM and Neovar. Id compare this to the way Ive felt with Epi/trn/zol as far as hardness, but with great mood and zero sides like lowered libido and raised bpressure. Im actually in full 'beach' shape and Im like 9 weeks out. I always do a nice precontest type of diet for the 12 weeks before my trip, but with the Neo/RPM on board, Im considering upping my carb intake and possible ********ing all the way til the trip. I think Neo will allow for some excess carbs and RPM's hardening effects might let me gain a few lbs while still lowering by bf%. Man, Im in heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dirk, if you'd like me to continue this all the way til my trip, I'd be happy to purchase my own RPM/Neo/Osteo and IGF-2 and log it for ya to show my gratitude for you letting me test. Let me know man. By the way man, I got a few more samples for ya, so look for another package by the end of next week. |

| Applied Nutriceuticals Rep. Board Sponsor | DAY 18 Biceps Incline Dumbell Curls- 35sx15, 50sx8, 50sx8 then drop to 30sx30 Standing Alternates- 35sx25, 35sx25, 35sx25 Crossbody Hammer Curls- 50sx20, 50sx20 1 Arm Spider Curls- 30x15, 35 til failure and with pumps until I could not move the weight at all Low Bar Cable Curls- warmup, stackx15, RundaRack with 6 different weights and for 10reps each and last set was til failure Lying Reverse Cable Curls- warmup, triple drop of reps 15/20/50 with rest/pause on final weight. Overall Impressions So Far I somehow managed to screw up my back up fairly badly, so I went light today, so I wouldnt add to the problem. It actually hurt just to do standing curls at all. My training partner is a chiro/massage therapist, so I think hes got me straight, but if not, Ill just skip deads this week. Anyways, things are still going great. Im looking forward to upping my carb intake and trying to hit some PRs in the coming workouts. Next week will be the beginning of my increased carb setup. Im hoping to maintain my weight and increase my strength and hardness as much as possible. Im not sure what Ill be training tommorrow, but next week Ill be switching my normal split since its time to do so. I change my routine about every 8 weeks to keep my body guessing. I just ordered me another bottle of RPM. I havent decided yet If I'll continue with this current stack after my one month mark, but Ill log it regardless. Im consdering a few different stacks, but Ill post when I make my final decision. Update coming tommorrow.... |

| Applied Nutriceuticals Rep. Board Sponsor | DAY 19 Triceps Dumbell Brainbusters- 3 sets til failure Incline Dumbell Extensions- 2 sets til failure Legs Leg Extensions- warmup, triple drop til failure on each Leg Curls- warmup, 2 sets of 12 w/stack Calf Raises- Unable to do, because my back was killing me and we dont have a seated version. Deadlifts didnt even try. Im gonna try some highdosed ibubrofen and a lot of ice for the next 2 days. If that doesn't work, monday will be a doc's appt. Overall Impressions So Far Well, my back hurts obviously. Basically, I did what few exercises I could do without a ton of pain and went for bloodvolume mainly. Im still hard and vascular all over and Im still loving the 'feeling' of being on RPM. Unless you've tried it, you cant understand it. Hopefully, the back will heal up and then I can get back to my normal heavy weights. DAY 20 Day off. Also, I will be planning my new split for next week and formulating my diet with some added carbs(mostly from ezekiel bread and oats). I plan on icing the he** outta my back and being in attack mode on Sunday. I cant wait for that work out. Ill update y'all when it concludes. Side Note: LIBIDO IS CRAZY-ELEVATED NOW!!!!!!! ![]() |

| Applied Nutriceuticals Rep. Board Sponsor | thewilman- thanks for the tip man DAY 21 Biceps/Triceps (together since I supersetted some) Hammer Crossbody Curls- 50sx20, 85sx11, 50sx20 Triset of concentrationcurl/inclinecurl/standingalternates: 3 sets of 10reps each with 50/35/45 Superset Barbrainbusters/ClosegripPresses- 65x20/20, 115x12/20, 145x10/15, 85x30/23 Superset LyingReverseCableCurls/Pushdowns: 2 sets til failure on all Superset StandingCableCurls/CableBrainbusters- 2 sets of 20 reps on all HighCable1ArmCurls- 2 sets of 15 Overall Impressions So Far Well, all is great except for my freaking back. Im hoping I can get it healed up in the next 2 days. Thats my main concern for now. Other than that, I feel great, sleep great, and have no joint pain. Im loving it. DAYS 22/23 They will be off days. My back just still isnt right. Im going to make an appt for Monday after work so I can see what the deal is. I can workout, but its just really painful to do any ex's standing. My spinal rectors are just killing me. Im guessing I rounded my back too much on the deads last week and that set it in motion. I didnt feel it hurting right then, but Ive been screwed since it started hurting the next day. I thought it was better. Last night I was feeling pretty good so I did some grappling, and Im assuming the triangle choke I got caught in wasnt too good for my back, but oh well, it was fun. |

| Applied Nutriceuticals Rep. Board Sponsor | I would just like to let everyone know that "Tommorrow, ITS ON!!!!". My back is fine. Im coming off 2 days off. I have a few guys coming to watch me train, just to see some of the weights I can move(they're like 150lbs). I have my new split layed out. I am ready to attack the gym! Seriously, this last week will be crazy. Im taking to the next level starting with tom.'s workout. |

| Applied Nutriceuticals Rep. Board Sponsor | DAY 24 Shoulders Dumbell Press- 50sx20, 85sx12, 85sx14 Dumbell Front Raise- 35sx15, 45sx8, 50sx11 Side Lateral Pumps- 50sxfailure, 50sxfailure GiantSets of bent cable laterals/standing cable laterals/front machine shoulder press/ back machine shoulder press- 1 set of 10reps each and 1 set of 15 reps each Traps Dumbell Shrugs- 120sx8, 120sx8(both sets are held 3 seconds at top of each rep and held til failure on final rep) BenchPress Machine Shrugs- 2 sets with stack til failure(done with same technique as above) Biceps I just through one exercise in since I wont be hitting them anymore this week. Lying Reverse Cable Curls- warmup, triple drop with reps of 8/12/101(holy he**, you talking about a painful pump) Overall Impressions So Far My back is good now. My strength is up and (again) this is huge when Im cut down 29lbs from the weight I am most of the year. My waist continues to drop and my libido continues to rise. Im shredded, strong, and motivated. There's really not much more you can ask for from a stack. The craziest thing is that this isnt even hormonal. Man, it just doesnt get much better than this. My new motto in life is: RPM'ER 4 LIFE BABY!! |

| Applied Nutriceuticals Rep. Board Sponsor | I know what you mean man. Its hard to describe that 'feeling' to somebody. You just have to use it to truly appreciate it. I plan on 'appreciating' it the rest of my life. |

| Applied Nutriceuticals Rep. Board Sponsor | DAY 25 Chest Flat Barbell Press- 135x20, 225x15, 250x10, 275x10, 185x20(felt ok on these.

| Applied Nutriceuticals Rep. Board Sponsor | DAY 26 Back One Arm Dumbell Rows- 100x12, 120x31 Superset WideGripPulldown/MachineRows- 2 sets of 15 each WidePulldown- warmup, 2 sets til failure StraightArm Pulldowns- warmup, drop of 8/12/33 Legs 3 Trisets of LegExtensions/LegPress/CalfRaise- reps of 10 each Overall Impressions So Far I skipped Deads just to let my back rest up a little more. Workout was awesome on pumps. Vascularity continues to rise as my waist continues to shrink. Im not at my all time strongest, but I am at my all time strongest at this bodyweight and this far into my cut. I seriously dont know if I can ever go without RPM again. I consider it my super staple supplement. The benefits vs. side effects ratio is the best of any product I've used. I wish it didnt have to end, but at least my RPM will continue for quite a while. DAY 27 off day. I will be watching my boy Chuck destroy Rampage on a nice 62 inch flatscreen plasma and it will be great. If Chuck loses, I will fall into a deep state of depression and I will take 10 RPMs and destroy Rampage myself. I will still be using my double barrel shotgun just so I dont have to get his blood all over me. I could take him without any weapons, but I just dont want to. I just spoke to Chuck and he will be dosing several RPM's pre-fight, so be sure to put your money on him. Update coming after Sundays workout. |
