Punthra's Keeping Summer Rolling with Maniac, RecoverPro, and Motivate!!!!

[punthra]

Welcome to the madness....For those who haven't followed my logs before, my name is Punthra and i'm a sponsored athlete for Anabolic Innovations. I'm 5'11 and 242 pounds (I kind of porked out a little to much this weekend...LOL!). I prefer to lift as heavy as possible while using a wide variety of training methods. I'm thankful right now that i have a good group of training partners to help me smash some serious weight.

Enough about me, on to the supplements i'll be using:

MOTIVATE:*motivation in a pill
*crash free energy
* increase alertness
Dosing: I intend to take take motivate first thing in the morning (2 pills) and an 2 hours before my workout (2 pills), which is at 5pm.


MANIAC! *Insane Muscle Pumps
*Explosive Strength
*Extreme Energy
*Prolong Endurance
I will be taking anywhere from 2 to 4 scoops on any given training day. It will be taken anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes before a workout


RECOVERPRO: *4:1:1 Ratio BCAA
*Faster Recovery
*Lean Muscle Gains
I'll be taking this immediately after my workout and occasionally throughout the day as i feel it is needed. The dosing for me is 3 scoops due to weighing over 180lbs

Along with these supplements i'll also be taking beta-alanine, a multi vitamin, omega 3*6*9, and glucosamine & chondroiton.


Here's last weeks workout to give you an idea of what to expect from my workouts....

Notes:
- pump was amazing with the combination of Maniac! and RecoverPro! I took them together at the beginning of my workout.
- enjoyed the smith rows but nothing will replace good old barbell rows
- trained on my own today as i was a little stressed out and need to blow off some steam
