My Erase / Alpha T2 Cycle

[tjwoody]

got a total of 3/3 erase/AT2 today and to add still getting my IGF-2 in. Example of todays workout below. I still dont feel much working but i know its early still.



tonight I took the MMA class, strength and conditioning. WOW,...intense! Havent felt like this since the days with the trainer. Lots of core, and lower body stuff. I will note what I can below.

Cardio:
Some stretching.
2 mins rounds of jump rope with 30 secs rest in between, 5 rounds.
Walking lunges, twice around area, about 3 mins., did this again a few mins later.
Wall squats, I was holding a 10 lb medicine ball, held for 45 secs each, 10 secs rest, done 3x.
Duck walks front and back, then done backwards, prob took a few mins for all.
as many situps as u could for 30 secs, into as many pushups for 30 secs then 20 secs rest, repeat x3
Partner up and lock legs, both do a situp and when u come up pass off medicine ball. Done for like 1 mins with 30 sec rest, 2-3 times.

Took approx 50 mins, 750 cals burnt. Will check heart rate monitor tomorrow.

Macros:
Cals: 2253.7
Protein: 226.9 - 40.3%
Carbs: 166.2 - 29.5%
Fats: 75.7 - 30.2%

Lil low on what I like for protein. 2200 cals is the lowest I wanna go atm. Ideally I like cutting around 2500 if i get some cardio in so will eat more today.

well i live 4hours away from my girlfriend because im playing junior hockey away from home so when i do see my girlfriend its on you know? so my libido is fine i would say haha.

tjwoody: are you suggesting i take the oep and the at2 at separate times for the first couple days? say oep at 430am then take my at2 at like 5am? or are you suggesting i take oep and at2 at the same time but space out my am and pm doses?

Macros:

Thoughts:
Started real sore with legs from yesterdays conditioning class. Think I will need to figure out a static split where I do same body part on each day of week when I figure out MMA class schedule. Right now conditioning is on Tuesday nights so its a day off from weights and boxing is Thursday nights but tomorrow gonna do chest and tris before class and see how it goes.

Misc:
I got some slin-slan I am gonna add to check it out. Tired slin slan today 15 mins before preworkout meal. dont know if i felt anything yet.

Thoughts:
Last nights workout...wow im feeling tired! May need to add a black cat or 2 today! yes, did have BC..hehe.

Tomorrow I got chest/tris with an hour break in between then a boxing class for an hour...should be interesting to say the least!

11/3/10 - Try to see if I can structure this a bit better. Will update throughout day or at night.

Doses:
545 am:
2/2 erase/at2
4 IGF-2

So you train at night?

I recommend changing your IGF-2 dosing/timing re your training times:

Train first thing
Dose 1 - 4 caps first thing
Dose 2 - 4 caps pre-bed

Train any other time but first thing
Dose 1 - 3 caps first thing
Dose 2 - 3 caps ~40 min pre-training
Dose 3 - 2 caps pre-bed

[eric fragoso]

i have a job interview coming up and i might have to take a drug test... would the at2 or oep have something in it that would make me fail a drug test?

Yes at night. Weight lifting is usually about 445 pm for hr-hr 20 mins depending. i take a pre workout too about 30-40 mins before workouts and an intra during...any issue stacking igf-2 with it. My preworkout meal is usually 2 hours before the weights.

I also started taking MMA type classes so will try the dose #2 about 40 mins pre it too. the conditioning class last night was rough and I will need all the recovery I can get!

Thx rosie!!!

No, nothing in either will cause a positive test. Only WADA or NCAA test for any of the stimulants in either.

You forget that IGF-2 contains Banaba Extract in it, so is no issues really having ~90 minutes after a meal, and no issues stacking it with preworkout or intrawokout products.

If you train close to when you go to bed, then you could just stick with the first thing and pre-bed dosing.

If you do MMA at a different time to your resistance training, like in the morning or afternoon, then you could dose before that if you use three doses that day.

I try to be in bed about 10 pm...done weights around 620ish. MMA classes are about 7PM so most days right after weight.

Your dose scheme does sound interesting! think I will try it for sure! I will erase/at2, 30 mins before meal which is like 3pm. then when i get home before gym I could do an IGF-2 dose like 430 which would be around 15-30 mins before i actually start lifting.

thx again Rosie!

Thoughts:
Got 7.5 hours of sleep, in bed prob for 8.5 hours. Did wake up couple times. Felt sorta restless around midnight when I woke up first time. Like back felt pumped or needed a good stretch or something. Still a lil tired I guess.

Trying to see if erase/Alpha-T2 is doing anything.

Supps:
Should add I sorta take a lot of other stuff....started checking out slin slan also, 15 mins before preworkout meals and tried 1 last night before bed. I also take Xtend and Intrain now. Xtend I think im going to use during day and nights while I eat low cals and during my MMA/boxing/Cardio classes.

Still taking my doses.

Did a delts/traps/cardio workout on Sat and enjoyed the meals a bit. Going to be doing a weigh in shortly.

After this week, gonna be eating at maint. then a bit above maint for several weeks. Diet break finally and want to see if I can add any more muscle before Jan cut.
