Ok, so as you may or may not know, I opted to join the competition for Primordial's 30 day stripping challenge. (Have pics on page 4)

http://anabolicminds.com/forum/company-promotions/174616-primordial-performance-4-a.html

I am gonna be stepping up my usual weight loss efforts for this (which are archived here:

http://anabolicminds.com/forum/weight-loss/166215-big-boy-needs.html

and bringing to bare the power of what I am calling the Trifecta (Taurus Nutrition, PES and IForce) Stack.

But lets be honest, all the sups in the world won't do crap with out a good diet and work out routine. I will continue to run a 4 day split (upper/lower, off day, upper/lower), restrict the daily intake target just a bit tighter (2500-2700 on lifting days, under 100 carbs every day, 220-275 protein grams) and about 2400 or less on non lifting days. I am also going to step up the cardio form 3x to 4-5x/wk. This will at times mean split sessions with morning cardio before work and lifting after. Will use a combo of HIIT and endurance cardio.

Now to the sups:

Taurus Nutrition's Wyked for PWO (2 scoops on Cardio days, 3 on lifting days). Logged this stuff for them and loved it:

http://anabolicminds.com/forum/supplement-reviews-logs/173452-tamans-getting-wyked-4.html

Quickly became my fav PWO, bought a refill.
Pair that along with their DA-HCG taken as directed to help keep the test flowing and make the most out of the iron efforts. Got enough of this for 8+ weeks

Then we throw in 30 days worth of Alpha T-2 (2 pills am on empty stomach, 1 more in the afternoon) to help in the fat reduction and loss for the contest itself. Top that? Sure, how about we keep away the nasty influence of estrogen with 8 weeks of Erase(2 pills am on empty stomach, 1 more in the afternoon) for another angle on fat reduction.

And to cap it all off, we are gonna do a 6-8 week Iforce ECDY run. Got enough (2 90 cap bottles) for 20 days of 3 caps and 30 days at 4/day. (which reportedly helps increase strength, is anabolic and also aids in leaning out.) I may just stay at 3 if I like what it is doing. All ECDY will be consumed after a minumum of 25, more likely 50g protein.

The overall goal is to reduce the fat while hopefully maintaining if not gaining some strength.

Starting point:

275 pounds, estimated BF: 19% (via 3 pt caliper estimate)

Current Maxes: DL 375, Squat 405, Flat Bench: 280X2

Started taking the sups on Friday (5/13/11), lets rock this!

Gonna repost yesterdays info and work out here as it is part of the time frame for this log and also so I do not have to repeat the "deload week" explanation."


5/15/11
Day 1, wk 9 (deload week)
2:20 – 3:15 p.m.
Total duration: 55 Minutes.

Notes: Was starting to feel a little beat up, joints achy etc, so decided it was time for a deload. Instead of taking a week away from the iron and just hitting cardio, I have opted to lower volume a bit by dropping some weight.

Today, we tried to keep it intense by incorporating Compound and opposing sets. Focused on form, good mind muscle connection and slow tempo with emphasis on negatives.

Decline Bench+ 190-/8/8, 210/8
Flat DB Press110-/10/10, 130/10 (wgt = db wgt x2)

BO BB Row+ 140-/8, 150-/8/9
Triangle PD 220-/10,250-/10/10

(opposing set)
Assisted dip + 195-/12, 205-/12/12
Ham Curl 40-/15, 50-/15/15 (wgt = db wgt x2)

(opposing set)
St. Bar Cable Curl+ 85-/15, 100-/15
St Bar Tri PD 85-/15, 100-/15

(Compound set)
Seated OH DB Press 90-/15/15 (wgt = db wgt x2)
Db Lat Raise 30-/12/12 (wgt = db wgt x2)

Wrapped it up with 40 minutes of 5 stage hills cardio, 305 cals burned.

Dietary info for today: 2592 in (107 [minus 29 fiber]= 78 carbs, 263 protein, 119 fats) with an estimated burn of 4324 for a deficit of 1732.


Not sure if it is the DA-HCG, the Erase or the ECDY or the combo of them all, but today I am noting an upswing in both mood and energy levels. I am generaly confident, but at this time I would say I am bordering on arrogant/****y. There is also a definitive increase in libido, thought I had "outgrown" the morning stiffy although I would at times wake up a little "heavy", these last two mornings things have been at "full attention.".

I think you'll be seeing Dexaprine in a lot of logs, especially with Intermittent Fasting protocol. The appetite suppression is the best I've ever experienced, better than ECA IMO.

Great job my man!
Thank you sir.

Started today with 10gram BCAA, 2 alpha T2, 2 scoops of Wyked and a scoop of DA-HCG with about 3 cups of coffee on an empty stomach for fasted pre-work cardio. STIMMED is not the word!

Anyways, 35.5 minutes, variable resistance (60/80/100% resistance) 260 cals.

Basically, to get lean enough that I no longer have a sagging chest (fat) and obviously noticeable love handles. My original target was 260, but don't think that is going to get the job done.

Some things I have noted from this stack:

1) Energy continues to be good
2) Aggression in the weight room is good.
3) Sleeping better, usually wake up 2-3 times a night(briefly) but have only been getting up once about 1:30, then sleep till 6. I can live with this.
4) Libido is a bit too good. (Not getting into it, but if ya have been there, you know what I mean.

Ok, this mornings cardio efforts were a cluster F. WTF is the point of having a cardio machine sign up board if some ass wipe is gonna take the machine you wanted when you are signing up. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. I was like "no big deal, there is another one just like it." Unfortunately, all tracking meters on it were screwed, think that batteries were dead. I should have said something, but hell, I don't always sign in my self and did not seem worth the fuss (yet I sit here passive aggressively beatching :whiner: )

Anyways, jumped on the treadmill instead, did 7 minutes and was like "Damn, no calorie meter" so I went to a stationary bike- 13 minutes, 60 supposed calories (+getting acquainted with the damn program) 60 cals. Grand estimated total: 107 cal burned, less than half of what I was expecting from an anticipated 35 - 40 minute session.

What's done is done I guess. Compound/opposing sets for legs tonight. Maybe I will break my rule and do more cardio after leg work out since I am going light this week.

Day 4 (Deload) week 9
4:45-5:30pm
Duration: 45 minutes
Notes – continued to go light and use opposing sets to bring the intensity tonight. After a week of this, I am getting hungry for some low rep/high weight action.

(opposing set) Does not include warm ups.
Squat 245 -10, 255 – 10/10
Lying Hamstring Curl 60 – 12, 70 - 12/12 (slow reps)

(opposing set)

Leg Extension 120 – 15, 140 – 12/12 (slow reps)

Leg Press Calf Ext 410 – 20/20/20

Did some random wrist curls as the above went very quickly and I tend to ignore my forearms.

Due to things going cruddy this morning with the pre-work cardio, I went ahead and did some more after leg work out. Variable
resistance (60%, 80%, 100%) for 27 minutes – 200 cals.

Dietary for today: 2576cals in (98 [minus 22 fiber] = 76 carbs, 255 protein, 130 fats) with an estimated burn of 4251 for a deficit of 1675.

Tomorrow I am going with the little guy for a camp out with the Scouts, will try to be disciplined, maybe pack some protein shakes pre-mixed and take a cooler and some peanuts nd jerky.

Just so you know, what you burn DURING the session is NO indicator of what that session actually contributes to your progress, so be aware of that.

Thanks Rosie! Could youy clarify a bit, in lehman's terms (not asking for a disertation, although I would certainly read one, just recognizing that you have other things to do in life besides forums.) I am aware of the cardio vascular and other health benefits as well as boosting the metabolism for the day (which was the point of morning sessions.) Is there anything else I am missing?

For example, 12 minutes of high intensity work on the treadmill or bike may only burn ~120 calories. However, the effect that is has on the body lasts a lot longer than what it burnt DURING the session, and will continue to have an effect on your body for up to 24 hours afterwards re "energy use".

Essentially it is a result of EPOC (excess post oxygen consumption) which simply means your body demands more O2 after the exercise and hence burns more calories.

Dead lifts 295 – 8, 325 – 6, 350 – 4, 365 – 2.
Tried 385 twice, got it off the ground both times,

Good and deep with no push from hands.

Standing calf extension – 140 – 15/15/12 (Good full ROM)

dietary info for today: 2524cals in (94 {minus 21 fiber} =73 carbs, 241 protein, 128 fats) with an estimated burn of 4500 for a deficit of 1976.

Tomorrow AM, tale of the tape!

Subjective observations: Aggression was very good tonight as was confidence. I had no doubt that I would hit 385 when I plated it up that it really pissed me off when I could not lock it out.

Energy continues to be good, libido is also (almost too good still). Continue to get the ass kicking cardio endurance I experienced with the Wyked during my log.

Also, came to a realization: I am in fact a stim junkie. Started this day with 2 A T2, 4 cups of coffee, a mix of Lit Up and AI's Maniac and 2 AI Motivate (from their sample packs they sent out). Was not geeked but very driven, and it showed in my pace with the cardio work. Did feel a bit of a crash in the afternoon, but nothing that one more Alpha T-2 and 3 scoops of Wyked could not tackle. Guess given my history of addiction, it should not surprise me that I enjoy natural stims a bit too much.

Thanks Rosie. Nice to see you are following along also :)

Today was pretty quiet, late day at work, took some time this morning to reconnect with the wife while the kids were at school. It was worth missing some cardio time for.

Dietary for today may be a bit off as some one brought in a platter with summer sausage and various cheeses, I did include estimates in today's totals.

Estimated intake: 2479 (a bit over target) (92 [minus 20 fiber]= 72 carbs, 217 protein, 136 fats) with an estimated burn of 3555 for a deficit of 1076.

Tomorrow is upper body and cardio day. May split into AM/PM sessions not sure. PM will count on rain as my youngest is scheduled for a ball game but we have had bad storms with more in the forecast.

Not sure if it is the coming off of a deload, the increased cardio/focus on cutting or just one of those days, but seem to be losing some ground on my bench work and OH Presses. I have been plateaued basically benching for a while now, but to loose ground on my OH Press is unusual, Suppose it could also be a shoulder issue as I have noted a return of my right arm lagging behind my left on press work lately and can feel some popping and grinding in the right one.

Pretty quiet day today. Went to the Memorial Day Services this morning, my wee guy is in scouts. 43 years old and I still tear up with Taps and the 21 gun salute, likely always will. Got home and took a 25 minute bike ride in semi hilly terrain. Did this on my Mom's Huffy, LOL, not exactly a performance piece of equipment, but screw it, it was cardio worth about 400+ cals. and it is the only bike I have at this time.
Then I spent some time teaching my 8year old how to ride his bike. He did pretty well, got to the turn around circle at the end of our cul-de sac and stopped because he did not think he was "ready for that 6 turn" (Meaning the turn around cirle) Spent abou 1.5 hrs total doing that, has to be worth a few cals and definately a life time of memories.

Anyways,got done with that and grilled up some Sirloins.

Dietary for today:2038 cals in (90 [minus 17 fiber] = 83 carbs, 208 protein, 91 fats) with an estimated burn of 3750 (bike riding lessons excluded) for a deficit of 1712. Tomorrow we have DEADLIFTS INC. I excited for this as I got 385 about 4-6 inches off the floor last week but could not lock it out. Would be the best DL since I pulled my hammy, anticipating it is going to go well.

Todays Numbers: Weight 271, waist 42 3/4. So we are up a pound (likely water retention) and down 5/8 of the gut. I'll take that.

We are just short of 3 weeks into this stack. So far, I have not really seen any major strength increases, conversely, I have not really noted any loss of it either and I guess with some of the deficits I have been running, that is a good thing. Tommorow marks day 20, so I think I am gonna bump the Ecdy to 100mg (split into 2 50mg doses) to see what that does for us starting Friday 6/3/11.

I have been leaning out nicely, current estimates put me at around 17% bf, down from 19. Am certainly pleased with this, but not satisfied by any means, MUST KEEP PUSHING!
