Grambo takes on MN X-Factor Advanced (Sponsored)

[Grambo]

Here is my X-factor Advanced Log...........sub and be my friend





Stats:

Age: 24

Height: 5'11
Weight: 191.2lbs - big cheat pizza last night.
Measurements:
Chest: 42- under armpits 50- total around arms
Quads: 22in
Wasit (just under belly button): 33in

Goals for the log: Hoping to put on a few LBs of muscle while more importantly losing some BF%s (who doesn't want this?)

Diet: Going to be more a cutting diet High protein/medium carb/medium fats, using one I have used in the past with some egg whites taking place of some protein shakes. BCAAs during training.

Training: Going to use some FST-7 style workouts. I like the 7 set pumps and should be a good combo with the XFA. Also be doing mostly low impact cardio except for a few interval style runs I am doing 3x a week.

Monday: Chest
Tuesday: Back
Wednesday:
Thursday: Quads
Friday: Arms
Saturday: Delts/Hams
Sunday:

Getting diet and training in check since starting Pharmacy school has been a bit of a chore so trying to get back on track with this log! **** is taking over my life a little bit but you can't disregard outside life or you will go crazy. Big exam tomorrow in Pharmaceutics about to get down on after I kill some food.

Been lifting weights for about 12 years+ now so its been a journey hahaha its great when 225 is just your repping weight. Those aren't to failure or anything (no spotters) probably easily bump it up next week. Usually week 1 is a feeling out week.

You'll get there no worries

Definitely should do that.

I have always wanted to use it but the price always made me delay purchase so pretty excited about this log actually. Lots of people I respect opinions of have good things to say.

Hopefully get some really nice recomp effects. Trying to stay away from.......non natural "supplements" for awhile haha

[rochabp]

im in brutha

[GMG760]

In... looking forward to seeing what the new formula can do.

[MM11]

Sub! I love regular x factor. I'm excited to see what this Does for you. I always got a nasty strength increase while leaning out. And sore joints but they address that in the advanced formula

[Tomahawk88]

U got my sub.

[AZMIDLYF]

In for the new X..

[ZamaMan]

Awesome grams can't wait to follow this. What exactly is x factor?

Yeah I remember my first time repping 225... Oh that was only 2 workouts ago. Lol hopefully i can hang on to my strength from SD. I'm hoping that recycle and slinshot you and Greg gave me will help me keep it.
I'm 2 plate guy on MFF.


Man those FST sets sound horrible. I thought a rest pause set was bad enough but doing more sets and flexing gosh I can only imagine. What's the science behind the flexing while resting?


Tear it up bro

X- Factor is in the most basic sense Arachidonic Acid a pro-inflammatory fatty acid.

X-Factor Advanced is a Prop blend of

40% ArA in proprietary Fatty Acid/Oil Blend,Ultra Purified Omega-3 concentrated Fish Oil, Boswellia Serrata Resin 18%

I hope the SS/Recycle does that stack justice and keeps you at the 225 reps! haha

The FST sets are amazing and horrible all at once haha basically just gives you a HUGE pump and supposedly this helps shuttle a lot of nutrients to the muscles being worked. Search FST-7 to find the articles explaining it more. I don't know it is all 100% true but the theory is good and at the very least gives the muscle some different stimulus than it might be used to.

[pezdog1]

I will be following along. I will be starting my 50 day of X-factor advanced. Give it hell bro!!!!

[EasyEJL]

With original x-factor, I found results best at 1.5x label dosing (went as high as 2 + 3x label, with no additional effects). At label dosing, I always found it taking hitting the second bottle to really notice effects, at the 1.5x dosing, you'd start seeing it by second week

[SwolenONE]

X Factor does seem to work really well with FST-7, the pumps are so damn good on XF that it takes FST-7 to a whole new painful and yet blissful level.

[MM11]

EasyEJL it sounds like we have had similar experiences with ArA

[mattikus]

Subbin' Interested in this. Trying to avoid those non-natural supplements myself hehe.

Horrible macro breakdown today :fail:

NOTES

- Couldn't sleep due to stimulant intake last night, MAYBE got 3 hours. Had a huge test that felt like it went fairly well though spent all day studying.
- Forced myself into the gym even being exhausted. Not the best day but happy I made myself get in there.
- I was super pumped in the gym today, I didn't take anything except some Redline (insert whatever name it is now) sample I had. And should have been detrimental to pump.....not at all full solid pumps that I recognize from when using venegeance. So definitley ArA kicking in a bit in that regard.
- Oh and then hit up two volleyball intramural games so typing this I am falling asleep from exhaustion and just going to have to wake up early to study for this quiz because I am not being productive.
