Anabeta Solo - Beginning of a Legacy

[Legacykid]

Decided to run this solo for the good of the community

This is a test to see how well this works solo, because this could be awesome in a PCT. I also am basically starting fresh, today is 6 months from a shoulder surgery. I've spent the past few months getting everything back in order, getting strength, endurance, overall mindset back. I feel like this came out at the perfect time to help me jump start this lifestyle once again.

Supps
1 bottle of AnaBeta
BCAA
Multi
Fish oil
Whey/Casein

This will be geared towards lean mass gain/ recomp
Diet will be very clean

Will try to get some pics up before and after

Training
will be 6 days cycled
tempo 2/0/2
reps 6-12

monday- chest and bis today
tues- Legs
Wed- Cardio abs
thurs- Back and tris
Friday- Shoulders
Sat Cardio abs


Notes
I took 2 caps today, and I have to say there is no way its mental, but im so hungry and thirsty its unbearable. My friend who works out with me and my girl said I looked pumped up and asked if I was on an NO or creatine product. I even felt a good pump. Im excited to see how this will go. Its late and I cant sleep so I will update this more tomorrow.

FINAL REVIEW....

Gained 3 lbs and kept it, strength gains were the best part

went up in weight on every lift

I've never been this strong at this weight peroid

I can see the best uses for this is as a bridge into a cycle and then PCT.
Reason being the dramatic increase in hunger, this will set things off great. Ive recieved better sleep as well

overall im happy with my 4 week run, def going to run this for an 8 weeker!!

[Legacykid]

Machine Flys 4 sets
Incline DB 5 sets

Keep feeding towards your goals. Protein and BCAAs to drive the muscle growth

[Legacykid]

Yeh im still trying to figure out how to get another meal in somewhere, i may try an wake up earlier and crash after i eat.

Question my recoverpro says for someone less than 160, i should only take 2 scoops total throughout the day, would it be bad to take more, i ask because everyone says more BCAA with anabeta

Also does omega 3 have any effect if i dose along with Anabeta?

[dontknowaboutme]

Subbed, will be following along as I am also logging Anabeta solo, should be interesting.

Omegas are fine. You can always do 2 anabeta with your biggest meal, then 1 with another meal and 1 with a 3rd meal. Still 4 per day and still equally effective. Whatever fits your schedule best

[Legacykid]

I thought it was dosed qid, not 1-2-1? im easily getting the 4 with means i just need to eat more so i can gain!!!

im eatting like a monster after my leg workout ive actually ate 3 meals since then

[nattydisaster]

QID is the dosing...i thought you meant you were having trouble eating 4 meals so I was suggesting 1-2-1 if you were only eating 3 meals.

No worries...carry on!

This is how it started for me as well. It got to the point I was eating steak and eggs for breakfast and wasn't full afterwards. I often was thinking about what I was going to eat next only 30 minutes after finishing food.

For me I honestly think my psychology held me back, I could have easily put more weight on if the feeling of eating so much more wasn't foreign to me. Keep in mind that although I ate a lot more, and a lot more carbs I still ended up looking leaner at a higher weight.

Take advantage of your appetite and plan ahead.

Not quite how it felt on HGHup but similar in some reguard. I also dont dream much and the past two nights I have had very detailed dreams. So far so good.

I had a pretty crazy dream last night, wonder if it is Anabeta related.

"Between you, me and the wall here, I had a doozy myself last night. Ha ha, ha, ha. Get this: A corn-fed harvest mouse, a hooker, a nun, a Flemish peasant woman, whips, chains, whistles yo-yo's, a circus midget. My grandmother riding by on a bicycle give me the finger, and a duck!"

[Legacykid]

Yesterday was Legs

Legs
Warmup
Squats 4 sets
Leg press 4 sets
Leg extension 4 sets
Leg curls 4 sets

Note:
What a huge pump i felt yesterday in my legs i planned on doing walking squats but couldnt. I didnt want to up any weight today because i dont want to risk injury, but i have to say the weight i was doing moved very easily, it very smooth.

I work out with a friend who has about 6 inches and 50 lbs on me and he cant believe im doing just about the same amount of weight sometimes more than him, mind you im coming off an injury.


Today was Abs and cardio

[AE14]

these are all great signs legacy. The AnaBeta is really kicking in

[bdcc]

Out of interest, how strictly are you logging your routine?

I ask because the routine I was on during AnaBeta was using a linear increase in loading (minus a deload day or two) and I didn't find the pumps from AnaBeta to hinder my workout in terms of weight lifted. Some said they found the pump was so intense it made some workouts harder to complete whereas I noticed a much greater pump and higher levels of vascularity but nothing suffered performance wise other than dips and chin ups.

Your thoughts so far?

[Legacykid]

im sorry ben can you rephase the question

[stankyleg]

Subb

[bdcc]

im sorry ben can you rephase the question

Of course, it was much wordier than I anticipated it being lol.

I want to know if the pumps have any hindrance effect on your workout. Some love the pumps and one or two people said the pumps were too much. It didn't slow down my strength increases on anything except chin ups and dips. I just wanted to know if you kept a training log was routine enough so you can tell if you have any difference in strength gains?

[thebigt]

Another one feeling the endurance effects

put me in that bunch.

[Legacykid]

I wouldnt say it was a pump effect where as i couldnt keep going, but it def wouldnt allow me to max out.

Today was Back

Pull downs 5 sets + 10 lbs
lat pulls 4 sets +20 lbs
t bar rows inner 4 sets + 15lbs .....3rd set did 5 reps with 90lb, took like 2 min break and did 12 reps

back extensions 4 sets

The weight def went up today boy

Note:
today i am experienceing mild lethargy, not at all when i lift but just through my day to day travels, not sure if its just me or the Anabeta.
Str is staring to go up though

Thirst is more under control at this point, and PUMPS are through the roof!!

[GQNemesis]

Nice increase in the weights .. Anxious to see how your bench will be
