Blue Gene/Green Mag Log with 5/3/1

[SweetLou321]

Hey guys, I was picked to log Green Mag and Blue Gene by Controlled Labs. Big thanks to Renegade Rows and CL for another logging chance.

Stats:
5'8-5'9
195ish lbs
Bench: 305
Squat: 395
Press: 190
Deadlift: 445

Training style: 5/3/1 "3/5/1"

Diet: Bulking 3500-4000 cals a day, If you want more detail let me know.

Supps:
Orange Triad
Vit D
Mag
Fish Oil
Ala
Taurine
Beta-alanine
Alcar
Xtend
White Flood/Lit-up when I need a boost.

Goals of this log will be to continue to increase strength for my meet in feb. Recover my lower back and left hip flexor. Increase conditioning. Ill be looking to compare green mag to creapure and AEN's new creatine RT. I dont really bloat but ill pay attention to that, stomach issues as mono makes me go, energy and power output, and even endurance since green mag is a designer creatine blend. Im expecting good things from this product and if I notice anything else im comment on it. As for blue gene, I have no idea what to expect, compare it to, or to try to get out of it. So this will be a fun product to test and im looking forward to it.

Also if you guys want anymore info or pics let me know.

Notes: Decided to run green mag for 20 days solo before adding in the blue gene to see what each product does on its own. So just 1 scoop Green mag today 30min pre-wo. Great session, no pre-wo creatine poop, no bloat, and i got a great energy boost from it. Taste is also very nice

Notes: Another Great session. I really like the taste of green mag, the natural energy and no stomach issues. Seems to be a great product, excited for the rest of my sessions. Only hit a modified deload on bench today bc of some training issues making this bench cycle extra long. Still felt amazingly strong.

Subbed. How have your PRs been coming along lately?

[mattrag]

subbed, my god you have some mean numbers.

Love your programming.

Subbed. How have your PRs been coming along lately?

Well my bench is coming along nicely. Hitting a lot of Prs in it as my form improves and my upper back strength increases. Also my press is improving with Prs, thx to form and and tricep strength. Sadly my squat and deadlift took a hit as I had a strain in my left hip flexor and I tweaked my lower back bc of my hip flexor preventing me from sitting back like I needed too. I took a step back in both lifts to work on form and do some rehab. And currently all my main sets of squats are done in a single ply squat suit to support my hip while I rehab it. Also imma try to get some vids of my squat and deadlift.

How do you set up your supplementary work?

[mich29]

[RenegadeRows]

Subbed, this is great, feeling the Green MAG working already.
VERY nice numbers so far
"OMG" once you add in Blue Gene

[ICJLM]

The log is looking good so far. I've used three bottles of Blue Gene in the past and a couple tubs of Green Mag. You're gunna love 'em both. Blue Gene always made me feel awesome, all day everyday.

Your quad work looks good, but supersetting GM with GHR is limiting them. You can arguably say that the GM is the best builder of both the squat and deadlift (I especially correlate the deadlift with them). GHR is also extremely important and should be done at every lower body session. I almost use them in the same fashion that I implement facepulls for upper body. You can do them before the squat to loosen up the posterior chain and to really establish the M-M connection with the area.

Thanks man. It more or less was I was squatting way to wide without support putting a lot of pressure on my weak hip flexors. So I brought my stance in a lil more to take more advantage of my quads. I do GHR every lower body session too, i use bands and the such to either increase of decrease the lift depending on the day. But I will try them pre-lift to see how it goes. How are your PRs? You got a log on here anywhere?

[SweetLou321]

How do you set up your supplementary work?

I always have on upper days:
Accessory Press after bench/press
Row Movement, sometimes do pullovers here
Upper Back movement
Tricep movement
Bicep movement
Chins inbetween pressing sets
Conditioning

Lower:
Quad work
Hamstring work
Core work
Conditioning

Since i do 3/5/1 I rotate my volume
3 week is high volume accessory
5 week is low volume accessory
5/3/1 week is high volume accessory
deload is low volume accessory

I'm transitioning to a conjugate system right now. I haven't attempted any PRs recently, but I can definitely tell that my bench would be higher just by technique improvements. I don't have a log right now (I'm keeping track on an Excel spreadsheet), but might start a new one after PCT is over, which will be in another 3 weeks.

Im excited to say the least. Im just not a fan of using more then 1 new product at once, bc then I cant tell what is doing what. Cant wait till day 20.

Ill be doing the same after this meet is over. I just wont be rotating my ME lift as much since I still need to learn how to bench, squat, and deadlift lol. What did you cycle?

Test E (500mg/week; 20 weeks), Deca (300mg/week; 14 weeks), Var (50mg/day; 4 weeks), and Ultradrol (8mg/day; 3 weeks) at the end. I used hCG on cycle and am running Clomid, Sustain Alpha, Toco-8, TCF-1, and HGHpro for PCT.

Conditioning/Quad Work: Prowler High handles 270lbs for 10min. There were two points in this where i couldnt breath, could barly see, couldnt stand. Only one thing was important after this...AIR
Notes: Another great session. Finally got a good groove on squats. Anyone that talks bad about lifting in gear has never done it. Its harder in its own way. Im enjoying the green mags taste and effects so far. Also i got my rehband knee sleeves in and got to use them this session. They were really nice and helped my knees stay warm and comfy the whole session lol

Heres pretty much what i looked like at the end.
