I hope so too! I would really love the added strength/recomp results and doubled with Citruvol Ultra....I think it's going to be pretty awesome.

8/31/10 - 9/1/10
bells tuesday, gym wednesday.​

Summary
Had a few good days here so i'm hyped. Ive had a lot of little injuries lately whether they be a stupid hamstring pull, prolonged soreness, or my left arm injury thats finally going away. I felt very good both of these days and on tuesday it showed through. Wednesday was more of a day to just get some work done with my body. I will try and get some in tonight too when i'm working at the gym.

Nutrition
The 1st day was still a bit shaky rolling in but yesterday was on point. I am going to change it up even a bit more so that my heavier carb days are when I lift and on no lift days i'm going to try for just fruit/veggie carb intake. I have 2 tubs of protein on the way right now so that will help since I am once again just about out of protein at the house. I will probably take 1 tub with me to the gym so I have a constant source of energy there.

Prime/Alpha/Citruvol
Well I didnt think i'd see Prime come through just yet, and i'm probably right. I felt stronger on my KB day, but it could also be from just feeling 100% for the first time in a long time also. I didn't feel as strong yesterday so i'm going to chalk day 1 up to more of a placebo type effect than anything.

The Citruvol is giving fun pumps already so hopefully that continues on real well. I used to love the original Citruvol but this Ultra version with the added BA is really nice.

Alpha is still in there doing it's thing for me. I am really enjoying it so far and I hope to really blast some fat this month.

This guy is repping with a 60kg bell. Do you know how heavy that is?! lol.

the pumps are really nice, but i like the endurance i got from citruvol the most.

I havent hit my endurance stride just yet. I have used it before and I always use other cordygen related products...but I have been off them for months now

yeah...yeah thats about right huh lol

 

[EasyEJL]

I've used it before and liked it, but i've had an unopened bottle sitting in my closet for probably 2 years now. Maybe I should pull that sucka out

i remember running incarnate-when i added cit mal it made it much improved. cituvol is much better than bulk cit mal-add some ba and creatine and you got it made.

you absolutely should ...i'm in heaven with the 3 products i'm using consistently right now. I also won a little serving bottle of HGH Pro to do a mini review on, so i'm hyped for the arrival of that!

if it's the new version of Citruvol (ultra), it has BA already in it

 

[CTDeuce]

I wanted to do legs today but I have an odd soreness in my left knee and it's cracking a lot. Still undecided on what to do. I may go ahead anyway, I may do it but go light, or I may change it up altogether. we shall see.

9/2/10
lazy legs.​

Summary
Well I wanted to work legs tonight being as how for one reason or another there is NO ONE at my gym right now, but my left knee is being a jerk. Rather than work them with heavy weight, I decided to do a bit of a cardio circuit to work them out. Cardio with the combo of Prime/Citruvol Ultra/Alpha T2 is ridiculous. I felt like I could go forever, my body temp was WAYY up *I also used an Oep*, and I was getting pump feelings in my legs during CARDIO. Not weights....CARDIO. I couldnt believe it! Definitely a nice session that only demanded about 30 mins of my time.

Remember as I list the session....it was all a circuit.

Nutrition
I did well today except my carbs were slightly high. I had a few bananas and I had a marble rye bagel with egg whites and veggies on it this morning. Otherwise clean as a whistle and with a LOT of water intake as well.

Prime/Alpha/Citruvol
Again i'm not so sure that I can feel Prime working yet...but i'm hyped for the arrival. I can't wait for the added strength aspect and from what I hear (as if I needed it) your libido goes a bit nuts as well.

Citruvol shocked the crap out of me today. To be pumping in my legs during a bout of cardio activity is downright silly. Remind me not to use it before tennis/soccer haha.

Alpha (with an Oep kick today) is treating me well. I feel a real nice month coming on here

Fun Lovin's
Nothing to note tonight.

 

[thebigt]

speaking of tennis-federer almost looked like the old roger today. i would really like to see him win the open.

 

[GoHardOrGoHme]

killer workouts buddy! Looking good and that video is ridiculous. Props!

Cant wait for this log to hit high gear once the Prime kicks in

 

[CTDeuce]

taking nothing away from Roger, I think Richard Gasquet is the most impressive so far. His shots are just as good if not better than when he came into the tour and he was a huge prodigy. he raped Davydenko yesterday and Davydenko was playing well!

you and I both brother....I am eagerly awaiting the Prime-icism. I am going to try and find a way to get a 2nd bottle so I can run this for another month after also.

 

[thebigt]

gasquet did look impressive!!!! but i think roger would intimidate him. after all he is french, lol.

sorry everyone..I had a brief lapse in internet the last few days, but im back to the party now. I will get my update from tuesday in pretty soon here. Yesterday I did some work but not enough to really warrant an update.

a bell of anger.​

Summary
I had a brother named Michael who was born mentally challenged with Cerberal Palsy. I was 5 years older than him and when I was young, I didnt really understand the whole situation all that well really....so I just kind of went along with the flow. The doctors said that Michael would probably not live past the age of 14. Michael lived to be 17...which was 6 years ago, when he passed. The 7th (day of this update) would have been his 23rd birthday. I tortured my classes with the bells...and I tortured myself. SO much so, that 2 days later (today) I am still a bit sore.

I dont even recall to be honest.

Prime/Alpha/Citruvol
I think I may feel Prime kicking in a bit now. Again it may be too soon to say....but I felt good. Real good.

C-vol is still kickin some arse like whoa. My endurance is now going up and the pumps are on the money.

Alpha (with an Oep kick today again) is awesome. thats all I can say...sheer awesomeness.

you're....DEAD.​

Summary
I haven't had a chance to deadlift in a long time. I mean....a long time. Upwards of 3 months, if not longer. I wanted to smash that record tonight and go ahead and get some DL's in. Once I got 1 set in....I decided I wanted to find out where I am on DL's strength wise. The number is novice for most....but after not doing a single DL for over 3 months, i'm happy with the results!

ended up being a short session...but productive.

I ate poorly this morning but made up for it as the day went on. I think I ended right around where I always do on a normal day. No harm, no foul.

Prime/Alpha/Citruvol
I feel Prime is coming into it's own at this point. I hope it's not though....because then when it does I will really be blown away, haha. We shall see. I am going to try and find someone to trade with so I can get a 2nd bottle and keep this thing going.

c-vol is my homie....thats all I can say.

I only took 1 dose of Alpha today, but I took 1 dose of Oep with it....and it was friggen rad as usual

I agree with all of that, but I DO feel that Fed will come through. I was REALLY hoping that Verdasco finally took out Nadal...but he has Nadal too much in his head. He needs to pretend he's playing monfils or someone and he'd wipe him out. I feel Verdasco has more "tennis talent" than Nadal....Nadal is just a more fit athlete.

very good analysis, i feel todays modern equiptment has allowed exceptional athletes to become championship tennis players. with wooden raquet's like i started with federer would stomp nadal, i doubt nadal would be in top 50. todays game is really fun to watch, but i honestly don't think the tennis skill level is what is was in the 70'-80's. the wilson t-2000 that conners played with was a real beatch to control.

which even further proves that Gael Monfils has no business playing tennis. He's a sideshow thats best suited for a comedy tour. he is an athlete of probably all sports...but is using the fact that you can use these new "pro-tweener" sticks to his advantage.

agreed, and in the age of double handed backhands it's nice to see him using the classic style. only one close in backhands i can think of was matts wilander.

furthermore as the biggest Notre Dame fan I know....I can't believe they lost either. If Crist was in the entire game they wouldn't have, but it still hurt bad.

oh im still updating the other one too..just much slower than this one because I have been so busy, haha. This is my most recent, so i've been updating this one more.

yeah I never had any high weight at my house and that was at the gym. Im not sure what my true 1 rep is....but another 3 weeks or so and i'll test again to find out. I should probably test for all of the "big" lifts.

BELL-erina.​

Summary
So with my 6pm class I only had time to instruct because I had 2 new clients and had to make sure their form was tight so they weren't going to get injured. I cant stand trainers that don't pay full attention to the health of their clients. With that said, I made the 7pm class intense and worked alongside the entire time since those are my advanced pupils who don't need much tutoring.

Spot on....which lately is a rarity. I feel bad for the T2 because my diet has sucked buns so I havent much done it's justice. Im working hard on it..but poor sleep and getting up all night long with my various children have just made it harder and harder to stay on point.

Prime/Alpha/Citruvol
Prime didn't have me feeling strong today...but I dont expect it to be a miracle worker either. There will always be off days.

Citruvol is still pumpin me out like whoa.

Summary
I only had about 30 mins to get a session in tonight, so I figured i'd make the most of my time and turn it into a power circuit session. I began with a cardio warmup and then jumped right into a 4 movement circuit before some end stretching. Let me tell you something...I have literally never in my life had a pump like this in my biceps. Citruvol/Prime/Alpha/Oep pre w/o made me feel AMAZING today.

I was on point today and even lowered carbs significantly. I ate a good deal of lean steak/turkey breast/ham....but carbs were low. It was a good day.

Prime had me feeling nice today. PS - My buddy JJ is sending me 1.5 more bottles so this log will carry on far longer than expected!!

Citruvol gave me the sickest pump of my life today. Its been 3 hours since I lifted and i'm still pumping.

Alpha is my homie.

No real update for the day except to add that I got to hit some tennis for about an hour while the brakes/rotors were being done on my car. I hit like poop...but I was on my horse and tracking down just about everything. Felt great to hit.

Okay so it turns out that I suck at updating. I've been so outrageously busy with my multiple jobs, my repping responsibilities, and promotion for my old and new KB classes...it's been tough to get time to get logging in. I have literally 5 days worth of updating to post on. I am going to put all 5 into this update that way it's easily readable and takes less than 2 days to post it all up.

Prime has hit its stride. I feel stronger ALL the time. Im not sure if it's Prime alone or a mix with Citruvol Ultra....but my muscles are full pretty much all day everyday. My lady mentioned the other day how hard my arm felt haha.

Citruvols endurance and pumps are nothing short of miraculous. I cant say enough about this product.

Alpha is awesome. I notice when I don't use it that I should have, haha. I miss days here and there and missing Alpha SUX
