Welcome everyone!

I am one lucky SOB and was selected to run 3 months supply of VidaTest! Why VidaTest for TxAggie you ask? I am 30 years old with a stressful IT job which has had a tendency to leave me feeling exhausted pretty regularly and I am hoping to change that. I am really interested in the adaptagens in VidaTest as well as its ability to raise libido. Looking to surprise the girlfriend too... :-)

Current Goals - Looking to do a lean bulk and body recomp over the next few months. I think I am between 14-17% body fat right now and will get those numbers solidified on Monday! I am currently 167 pounds and most of my fat is in my love handle areas. I will try to get some pictures up soon.

Current Workout - 5x5 style workout with 2 random days rest usually 1 midweek and 1 on weekends. I use our gym at work for most workouts since they have almost everything I need. I also am a member of Gold's Gym which I use for their Hammer Strength machines. I try to hit large muscle groups twice a week 3-4 days rest between. I get 6.5 - 7.5 hrs of sleep per night roughly.

Diet - pretty clean but likely needs a little work but it is easy to maintain. I get lots of my protein from whey shakes since it is hard to eat chicken all day at work. I take in about 2100-2500 calories per day.
Breakfast - Greek Yogurt / Oatmeal
Lunch - Try to eat something healthier at work like chicken philly / turkey burgers.
Dinner - Something with chicken in it usually.

Current Supps:
Vidatest (Sponsored) - started 2/25/2012 @ 3 per day. Will run for 3 months.
Anabeta- started 2/18/2012 @ 4 per day. Will run 7 more weeks.
Erase - started 2/18/2012 @ 3 per day. Will run 7 more weeks.
Formula-X - started 2/18/2012 @ 1.5-2 scoops per day. Will run 7 more weeks or until I run out.

Pre-workout drinks - none typically but if needed I have 1.M.R & Jack3d. I just weened off stimulants for the most part so I am staying away if I can!
Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Whey protein - Take roughly 4 scoops daily for 96g per day.
Optimum Nutrition Casein Protein - 2 scoops taken before bed.
Fish Oil & Super Cissus for joint support. I have a bad left knee and had surgery on it back in Oct 2011.
Orange Triad Multivitamin


This shiznat is about to get serious; stay tuned for updates and thanks again to the folks at VidaSupps and EV52 for making this happen. I will likely update this thread every 3-5 days.

Day 2 - Dosed 3 pills today (3 yesterday) and I don't know if it is coincidental or not but I have been walking around with a chubby all friggin day. Sounds fun until you go to the gym and all you see is scattered @$$ everywhere.. :-)

Good Luck,
I recommend dosing either all at once in the am or 2am/1pm before bed. Make sure you take on a empty stomach. This is why dosing upon wakening works so well.

Thanks for the tip! It has been crazy trying to keep track of when I took the last dose; I will start doing all 3 when I first wake up if you think that works just as well as spreading it throughout the day.

I prefer it that way, it's easier and you see the same results. Some people have a little stomach sensitivity to the bioperine with that dosing protocal at first but it should go away.

Day 3 - Who needs boner pills when you can get VidaTest? Haven't had good morning wood like that in a few years.

I get my bf % checked today (calipers) and will be doing bicepts after work. Yesterday did back at Golds and it was an OK workout but was tired from getting called by work at 5 a.m. NO EXCUSES TODAY FOLKS!

[TxAggie]

Body fat = 17.5 using calipers with 7 points checked.

Chest - 7
Tri -12
Subsapular -11
Midauxillary -23
Abs-22
Thigh -22
Supra iliac -24

Subb'd can't wait to see what your results are like.

Had a pretty good chest / triceps workout today and bicep workout yesterday. Energy levels seem pretty stead so far but no noticeable mood changes yet.

The Anabeta stacked with this has me feeling hungry as h3ll all the time.

[TxAggie]

Went to Golds today and had a very good chest / tri workout today. I am doing a 5x5 style workout and couldnt resist trying to bump the weight a little today.

Hammer Strength Wide Grip - 4x5 @240 and 1x3 @ 280
HS Decline - 5x5 @ 210
HS Incline - 2x5 @ 190 and 3x6 @165
Seated tricep extension - 4x8 @ 190 2x5 @210

Overall I have been feeling pretty good mood wise; might be better but work has been stressful all week. I am sleeping pretty good and getting about 6.5 - 7.5 hrs each night. My libido has been really high this past week which has been really nice as well.

Quick update.

Had a good bice workout today even after a terrible night sleep (d@mn work) and felt tired all day. I am starting to get in to some better strength gains now and I still feel really good throughout the day. I'd say I have been in a better mood lately as well which is what I am looking for a lot lately.

Yesterday was back and legs and today I was worn out so took a rest day. Work has been stressful and I was feeling like crap all day so figured a break would be good. I will pick it up again tomorrow at Golds on my day off. Libido is still running strong and my g/f says thanks!

[TxAggie]

Killed it in the gym this morning; got in chest, tri's, and abs and still have lots of energy. Had 2 scantly clad girls running around in there for a nice distraction too ... the libido is kicking!

In for this. By the way love the name. Gig'em whoop whoop.. Yes I am an Aggie and still live near by.

Not sure if I am over training, not enough rest, or not eating like a beast but I am tired...so so tired. I am making decent gains in strength these past 3 weeks but nothing out of the norm I haven't obtained while just on creatine before. Maybe I need to fix some of my diet? I have been sleeping pretty good; maybe 7-8 hrs per night. I have morning wood every morning and an increase in libido (usually in the mornings) as well; the g/f has been enjoying that part.

Breakfast M-F : 2 oatmeal packets & F.AGE Greek yogurt. 2 scoops of ON Whey. (48 grams)
Lunch M-F : Cafeteria at work usually a chicken philly healthy option or double turkey burger with lettuce/tomato/pickle
Dinner - Pretty clean. Did cedar planked salmon filets (got 3 days worth of 8 oz filets) and a rotisserie chicken for other 2 meals. With salmon had some couscous salad and mixed veggies.
Post workout - 2 scoops ON whey (48 grams)
Bed time - 2 scoop ON Pro complex (60 grams)
Drinking about 1 gallon of water per day.

Past week of workouts:
Friday - chest / triceps
Saturday - rest
Sunday - back workout
Monday (3/12)- bicep / some shoulders
Tuesday (3/13)- Rest (still sore from back workout)

Work has been busy too so I am sure that stress isn't helping much either with my sleepiness.

[TxAggie]

Chest / Triceps workout yesterday went well; no new PR's but was able to push myself pretty hard. Attitude was better after a break from the gym Tuesday and a good power nap after work.

Welcome to my log.
