mkretz on the comback trail with HGHpro!

[mkretz]

alright guys first of all id like to say thanks so much to AI sports for hookin me up and allowing me to log this product. and also throwing in a sick T shirt and some nice samples.

got a long story behind me but gonna try to sum it up......was playing college football when I got real sick and lost about 60 lbs and ended up in teh hospital. Been fighting on and off for a while now but have been cleared to lift again after a few months off and I am more motivated than eer to get back to where I used to be...(bout 170 5% bf) right now im sittin at only aout 140-145 still very low bf but i assure you I am as dedicated as it gets and work my ass off, and you will see this in my log. So I plan to make some nice gains with hgh up's help.

I really like the recovery abilities that hgh up will help me with and I will be logging its effects on my sleep as well as my recovery.

I woudl love to hear ANY feedback that anyone has throughout the log whether it be good bad or just ideas to throw into my owrkout or nutrition.

 

[mkretz]

to start off my nutritiona s of right now is with lean gains. I know it seems wierd becasue I am looking to bulk up but my job (trainer and fitness class instructor) requires me to be up at 5 and teaching classes 35 min away at 6 and then going to school its jsut more conveinient to fast and then eat a big meal. I tend to workout around 1130-12 - 130-2 (including warm up) cals are at 3100 right now, they were at 3000 but didnt gain so i upped it 100. I eat about 55% cals after I workout then the emainder throughout the day usually in 2 meals till about 930 then fast again. I was wondering how often otehrs weight themselves but im tryin to hold off to once a weeek although its hard lol.

Last week I jut freelanced in teh gym with no real "program" but this week I plan to start writing downa ll my workouts and weights like i used to and will post them on here.

 

[mkretz]

yest. was my first dosing of the hgh up....i usually have trouble sleeping but didnt have too much difficulty once i fell asleep ( i tend to think too much when I lay in bed) I had run 5 miles that day (jsut wanna see if i can do it cuz im running the turkey trot on thanksgiving, i really dont like running though s o i try to avoid it lol) my legs were not sore at all today, so that is my initial notice of recovery, dunno if its the hgh up or just the fact that the run wasnt too txing on my body like thouhgt it would be.

Today however will test hghups abilities....LEG DAY (going off memory)

[mkretz]

anyone ever dose hghup differently than jsut 4 caps before bed? like pre w.o? thanks

 

[mxer657]

anyone ever dose hghup differently than jsut 4 caps before bed? like pre w.o? thanks

I've read a lot of people take 5 to make it effective for them. A lot of them split it up across 2 different times.

 

[R1balla]

do you mean HGHpro? HGHup is made by AppNut, not AI

 

[R1balla]

and if it is HGHup, I like to take all 5 caps at bedtime for best sleep benefits. I look at it this way...your body grows when you are sleeping. why not have your test and GH at its highest while your sleeping

 

[mkretz]

wow im an idiot it is hgh pro im so sorry, wow, i was def out of it yest, sorry is there a way to change the name of the thread?

 

[thetinyguy]

Bro you should follow my log. We are similar sizes and are doing almost the same stuff. Both doing HGHPro. I'm doing Lean Gains with it for now. I think I've seen you pop your head in the thread a few times. Let me know if you have any questions bro.

Here is my log: http://anabolicminds.com/forum/supplement-reviews-logs/185993-starting-weight-140lbs.html

DB flat bench
50x15
55x12
60x6
60x7 + 3 forced
then did a set with the 70s jsut cuz my training partner wanted to go real heavy so i said sure y not lol
70x4 + 2

Incline Hammer Strength
90x15
100x12
90 x (Yates set) - = 10 reps, rest 10s, 10 reps, rest 10s, 4 10 sec negatives, rest 10s, 4 10 sec negatives.......WOW ! literally felt like my chest was torn after this.

50x12
50x15
60x6+3

ss w/ one arm band ext. x 15

Legs are sore but its more of an achy sore rather than an omg i cant walk sore.... I look at this as good recovery because normally this comes after the painful sore but we will see in the next couple days cuz sometimes it dont hit me right away. My chest is not too sore today but tomorrow will be the real test, but so far it seems like the recovery is goin pretty good for how much im doing.

 

[mxer657]

what is your dry weight and bf% at right now?

We should trade measurements. I'll send you mine later today. It'll be cool to see what you do for your lifts


How are you liking HGHPro so far? Any noticeable sleep differences? Personally, I feel like my growth rate has gone up on it. Repair times are quicker and the repaired muscle seems to be, not sure how to say this quickly, but larger than normal. I've seen some solid growth

 

[mkretz]

11/7/11 - Back/ Bis

BW Pull up - unfortunately this shows my weakness since im barely over 140lbs and can't do many of these....even though i dont like doing them ( cuz im bad at them) I will be focusing on these because i know how important they are.

235 x 4 rrest pause X 3 RP X 3 these sets the bar was coming right up my legs to below my belly button
135X15
135X12 + about 10 with "bad" form - these two sets were pullled up to above belly button

Higher grip close grip cable row - the gym at my school has a weird set up where its liek a normal able row put u put ur feet up higher and the cable is higher so u lean back and pull a little more down to ur body ratehr than right into ur belly....kinda cool

[stxnas]

wow im an idiot it is hgh pro im so sorry, wow, i was def out of it yest, sorry is there a way to change the name of the thread?

PM a Mod and maybe they can fix it for you.

These two supps get confused ALL the time

HGHpro is also supposed to be taken all at once, before bed. You're also not supposed to ingest any carbs at least two hours before taking the HGHpro. I actually only use three caps and still get great sleep this way. I've talked to others that do the same. You'll have to play with the dosing and see what works the best for you, though.

 

[mkretz]

Im about 140, dunno bf, but its low..... I cant say i eally notce anything significant after only 3 days, but i havent been crazy sore which is good cuz I am going pretty hard in the gym.

what is your dry weight and bf% at right now?

We should trade measurements. I'll send you mine later today. It'll be cool to see what you do for your lifts

[mkretz]

Well with the way my meals tend to go during the week i gotta throw them together in a small window towards the night so i usually have a meal with around 30 g carbs or so, some from veggies aroudn 7-73- then pop the hghpro round 845 ish then eat another meal that will have veggies but thats it, otherwise is protein and fat around wel...right now haha 915-930ish.... uu thinkt hat this will mess up my gains? any suggestions?

[mxer657]

I'm just taking it an hour after my last meal bro. I don't really wait to go to bed unless it's convenient

 

[mkretz]

Since my weight is a lil low compared to what teh product was probably intended i am going to try and do jsut 3 caps fo a a couple days and see how i feel.....

with that said, last night I took the hgh pro with some ZMA (which i had been forgetting to do) and slept great, I woke up to pee a few tiems like always but the sleep really was excellent, normally i take a lil nyquil before i go to sleep and i didnt miss it at all last night, felt great

[stxnas]

What do the pluses indicate in your sets? Do you drop weight and squeeze out a few more reps?

Oh, and I PMd a mod and asked him to correct your title

 

[mkretz]

Oh, and I PMd a mod and asked him to correct your title

the uulse reps on my calf raises are just more like bouncing, less ROM not a real squeeze either just burning out the muscle......

thanks alot i noticed the new title and like it alot better haha sorry again about that!

 

[stxnas]

No worries.

I was just wondering about the pluses. I actually keep track of my reps and use the plus sign as a denotation in the same manner you use it.

 

[mkretz]

oo usaid pluses i thought u said pulses....the pluses are actuallly like extra reps that werent with great form type of thing ya knwo when ur swining the weight or something like that to get some extra reps in on the calf raises i do pulses after i cant do any more strict reps to really burn it out

 

[GoHardOrGoHme]

Im Late but IM in!!! Subbed!!! Tear it up!

 

[emiliozapata]

just a quick question on your math. You state you got "sick" and lost 60 lbs. Then state you are about 140 right now(though your avatar says 150), and then state you want to get back to where you were at 170. So when were you 200 plus? Were you a fat 200?

 

[mkretz]

yea ive been through a couple different stages.....the most i ever weighed was suring high school football at about 174 id say about 8% bf....then when i graduated and was gonna play college football i was about 165 5% bf, then i got sick, was in teh hospital, dropped down to about 110 ....slowly got back up to about 150 (in my avatar) then was taken off of some meds and lost a little and went back down to about 135, got back up to around 140 and i am now currently sitting at 141.2 as of this morning which is up about 2 lbs as of a weekand a half ago sooo going in the right direction

 

[mkretz]

11/9 - was supposed to be an arm day but my bis were killin me from back day..... so me and a buddy did chest/tris cuz they were both feelin good. Was a little worried cuz i did shoulders yest. but felt pretty good. My back is pretty sore today and also my traps, im guessing mostly from the back workout 2 days ago, went pretty heavy.....feels good though

then we did a tricep superset for 4 sets which was jsut rope pushdowns supersetted with one arm cable pushdowns. Don't remember the weights, jsut goin for a pump, sets were back to back no rest.

-I felt ok today but for some reason i jsut feel liek my weights werent where tehy should be, i mean i know im weaker from taking a break but I dunno felt liek i shoudlve been a littel stronger Energy was def. up in the beginning but I felt liek i was in the gym forever today, I did have to try to shut my buddy up alilttle more than usual haha.

the sleep last night was very good on only 3 caps of hgh pro as well as some ZMA, I woudl say i didnt fall asleep as quick or feel extrmemly sleepy but my sleep once i was asleep was very good and i woke up with more energy than usual today as well. Leg day tomorrow!!!! Usually my legs are still sore form the previous leg workout at least al ittle but not at all even today so my recovery is def. up, can't wait to see how the worout goes tomrorow!

 

[mxer657]

Nice job. I'm on 3 a day. Actually had a similar workout experience today

 

[mkretz]

dosed 3 pills again last ngiht along with ZMA and once agian i didnt get the omg im so sleepy feeling or anythign liek that but i slept great, but for some reason this morning i jsut didnt wanna get out of bed, maybe my body jsut needs more rest, im really only sleepin about 7 hours a night if im lucky. Tooday was a killer leg day and will probably only do some abs tomorrow with saturday being a complete off day. The plan is to do about 2800 cals tomorrow with lower carbs since its only abs and maybe calves and about 2400-2500 on saturday with only carbs coming from veggies

 

[stxnas]

Have you tried four caps yet? A regular dose is actually four capsules.

 

[mkretz]

yea i did 4 caps the first two nights....only difference i noticed was got more tired.....actual aleep has been the same with three...i jsut figured that since i am aliltle smaller maybe i could get away with only using 3 at a time to get the bottle to last longer.....no?

 

[stxnas]

That's not uncommon. I've had a few guys tell me that three works just as well as four.

 

[mkretz]

killer workout prolly wont be walking normal for a while - before hgh pro a workout like this woudl probably have me sore for a week, so this shoudl be interesting to see how quickly i recover

 

[mkretz]

yeha im jsut gonna stick with 3 for now then to have it last longer... actualyl i think ill do four tonight because of the hard workout i had so i will porbably do 3 every night except on leg days.

That's not uncommon. I've had a few guys tell me that three works just as well as four.

 

[mkretz]

well...i didnt get to abs/calved today so today was an off day, kept cals lower, round 2400, cars coming mostly from veggies and layne norton cheesecake haha good stuff!.....tomrow I will get up alittle early to getin some abs n calves, then ill be teaching a few fitness classes so Im gonna put the cals back up to around 3000 but keep carbs alittle lower cuz its not really an all out trianing day but i have def. neglected my abs lately, i will let ya'll know how it goes, hope theres still poeple out there following :-(

p.s. legs are pretty dang sore today, usually the first day isnt too abd as compared to teh few days after so hopefully the hghpro wiill help with this.... goodnight AM

 

[mkretz]

alright little bit of an update..... yesterday 11/12 - I was able to do some abs, and only 3 sets of seated calf raises.... nothing else to really speak of. I did rope crunches, rev crunches with the cables around my feet so i coudl use some weight, chops, and 2 diferent crunch machines. Took the hgh pro at 3 caps and felt slept good.

My legs are finally recovering, seems to be a little ahead of what tehy woudl normally be after that kind of workout.

I did chest/tris today and did just about the same workout as last week....unfortunately my log sheet is in my ar and dont feel like going to get it I will post up tomrorow.... I was stronger this week thouh so that is def. a plus, as long as i keep progressing im happy.


One thing to note about tonight is that I had a late pwo meal wihc i finished about 7:40 or so and it was my biggest meal of the day at about 1700 cals. I will be taking my hghpro very soon because i have to get to bed cuz i have to get up early for work in the morning, hopefully it will stil have some effect esp since i still need to get another meal in me before bed so i will probably wait about 45 min then eat and hope it still works......

anyone have any past succes with having to dose hghpro around food?

ps......... IS ANYONE OUT THERE???? any comments about my training, nutrition anything? quesitons?

 

[mkretz]

I also tried a sample pack of bullnox andorush pre workout today and I must say the pumps were pretty good, i felt pretty oo thorughout the workout, but i tend to sip on my preworkout throughout my workout until abotu halfway through which may dmnishish some of the caffiene kick.... I woudlnt say i was crazy amped up like with some pre workouts, but it def. did the job, and tasted realllly good...fruit punch yummm haha

Nice little review man, i'm trying to find a new Pre-workout to give a shot at. Think i'm done with the "concentrated" ones for a while. Thinking about trying Musclepharm Assault..

- pretty solid workout overall, a little sore today, however it seems like the pattern is that i get very sore 2 days after teh workout (my chest is killin me today haha) so tomrorow should be interesting. With that said after the 2nd day it seems like my soreness disapears so hghpro is def. doing its job, I woudl say my recovery woudl at least be another day without it.
- still dosing 3 caps and sleep has been pretty good even though im sick....with the help of a little nyquil, not gonna lie (but not alot)
