John,
I'm in. Was planning on using the bulk X-factor some time this month.
I'll wait on that to see if I'm picked for any of these.

I can log here and BB.com.

No issue with pictures - I have some in a thread in the Pics. forum here (and on BB.com).

With football season over, 5X per week shouldn't be a problem. (Too busy with a sports board during FB season.)

I lift 5 days a week - Bobo's time under tension style.

Working on what diet I'll transition back to. Took most of December off while traveling and working 12 hour shifts.

Okay I want in. I'm planning on running X-Factor and DRive/RPM after January anyway. I'd also be interested in the AX stuff, as long as it's not fat burning (I'd like to build). I'm devoted to my logs, but only pick me if you believe in your product because I will give it a bad review if I don't think it's worth it (I've done it before). I do, however, work for the only supplement store/web site in Canada that carries rarer products from companies like AP, PAL, USP, DS and others, and I sell the products I like (I can't tell you how much Drive and RPM and I've convinced people to buy, and now Pslin since I've started it). I'm one of the few testers that you will directly make your money back from. Also, if it's a product we don't carry (like X factor), I might be able to convince my boss to start carrying it.

I'm doing a bulking hypertrophy program right now (4 day split, body part specific) for my Pslin/Hx2/AX log that I'm running until the end of Jan, but after that, I will be switching to a hybrid Power/hypertrophy program, concentrating on better athletic performance, but still keeping big muscle; it might look something like this;

Day 1: Squats, Spartans, 1 arm snatch, Clean and jerk

Day 2: DB row, Cable row drops sets, wide pull ups, Barbell curl, hammer curl drop set.

Day 3 Bench Press, Machine Press Drop set, Bosu Plyo Push up, DB shoulder press, Giant set rear/side front flies, tricep press drop set.

Day 4: Hand spring/kippup drills, Bosu plyo jump, hurdle jumps, depth jumps, burpee chin up drills.

Rest days spaced out to prevent injury and either abs or cardio will be done after each session. Each exercise will have 2-4 sets, plus warm up. That program is just an example off the top of my head, as I like to change my workouts each week.

Diet will be fairly high calorie, high protien, eating 5 or 6 meals per day, seeking multiple protien sources (taking into account X-factor's special dietary requirements). I'm not drinking at all during my January training log, but I might continue that for the 50 days after that for the X factor. I have not decided.

I am interested in the fat loss products. I dont think ive ever taken any supplements from this company. If there are spots for the topical applications, id prefer that as I am lean except for the suprailiac area.

Stats:
Height: 5' 10''
Weight: 248lbs AM 253lbs PM
Bodyfat: 10% +/- 1.

Training: DC last 2.5 years. Recently switched to my own version of WS4BB.

10-1 pm - sip of shake of mixed powders 50g pro / 1tbs olive oil

1-3:30 - same shake as 10am
3:30 - same meal as chicken

10pm - mostly veggies to control hunger (most important for me at night) + protein

Macos for the day : 450g protein / less then 30g carbs / 220g fats

Weight training days are different, as I workout at between 8-9 and consume different types of shakes between 7-12 and follow with mostly whole foods the rest of the day.

Selection will be at the end of January.

Conditions:
- You MUST post Before and after pics and measurements

Information:

Age: 18
Height: 6'2
Weight: 200
BF%: 12-13%

I'm planning on bulking for about the next year and want to get up to around 230-240 without too much fat gain. The two that I was most interested in were X-Factor and RPM and X-Factor and Lean Xtreme. However, X-Factor and most of the other products are pretty amazing, so I think anyone would probably do.

My diet is pretty strict and is right about 5000 calories (I've toyed with calories enough to know this is a pretty good number for bulking for me), and about 300 grams of protein.

Normally, the only supplements I take are ON 100% Whey, Prolab Creatine Monohydrate, Nutra Planet Beta-Alanine, and Fish Oils (although I will obviously lose the fish oils while on X-Factor).

Specific Diet:

Breakfast (9 or so): Banana, bagel, PB, and milk
Lunch (12): 2 Hamburgers/or 12 oz chicken, salad, and milk
Pre-WO (2): Apple (can't eat much before or I feel sick)
Post-WO (3): 60-70 grams dextrose, 1 scoop whey, and milk
Dinner (5): Depends night to night, but I aim for about 60 grams of protein and a ton of calories
Night Snack:PB and Milk
Pre-Bed Time: 3 servings of cottage cheese

Training:

Monday
Squat or box squat 2 x 5
Glute/Ham Raises or pullthroughs 3 x 10
Bent Row or Chest Supported row 4 x 6
Barbell or Dumbbell Curl 3 x 8
Calf Raises 3 x 15

Wednesday
Bench Press or low board press 3 x 5, or 3 x 3
Incline Dumbbell Bench Press 4 x 8
Military or Dumbbell Shoulder Press 3 x 8
Skull Crushers 3 x 10
Ab work 3 x 10

Friday
Deadlift or rack deadlift 2 x 5
Leg press 2 x 10
Chin or lat pull-down 4 x 6
Barbell or Dumbbell Curl 3 x 8
Calf Raises 3 x 15


(Taken from Iron Addict)

Like I said, Lean Xtreme and Drive are my top too favorites since both are perfect for my goals.

Hi, I am interested in becoming a beta tester of the products your pimping. I will be sure to live up to the conditions of the agreement. I have my own conditions however: nothing use send me can be androgenic or anabolic. I am a natural athlete and don't want my hormones messed with.
I am 23 yrs 6'2" , 238lbs presently at about 11%bf. I compete in powerlifting and strongman competitions. Regularly i am around 245-250 but around the holidays my eating and training slacked a little bit. I would like to get back to that weight and be a solid 250 @10%.
Current lifts:
squat 600+
overhead press 350+
deadlift 700

training is highly instinctive but mostly consists of 3-4 days per week, 1st movement is mass movement(squat,dead,press,etc) with low reps and heavy weight followed by assistance work afterwards. Strongman training is usually 1x per week with various implements.
diet is clean bulk, 5000+calories daily 6 meals per day, 1 shake max per day, try to get mostly whole foods
Look forward to hearing from you.

this wont be beta testing, all of these products are well known and proven to be effective. Thanks for your interest man.

[blahblahblah]

i guess we'll see if they're effective on a real lifter. Seems like the majority of testing threads i read are from 150lb goobers who don't even know what a power rack is.
These products are not well known in the strength community, in fact i had never heard of them until i stumbled across this board.
