Gotti goes hard with Tropinol XP!

[Loudy Rowdy]

I do shrugs on back day, that's easily my favorite.

Looks like great workouts and benefits keep coming.

I'm running out of ideas for "traps"... barbell/dumbell shurgs, facepulls, barbell rows (neck level)....um...whatelse? ..... uptight rows is a stress killer on my shoulders so i dont do them

Farmer walks = trap heaven

Shrugs, all we need!

[Young Gotti]

i know when i used to do more trap work before i started getting crazy headaches....i used to love using the U shaped barbell...stand in front of it and sit right in the U..strap up and shrug with the bar behind you, worked well

also have a friend who swears by using the chest pad t bar row, keeping arms straight and pull the weight backwards using ur traps

my gym also has a hammer strength shrug machine which is good because the handles are on a pivet so u can really change the grip style up

Monday: Chest/Tris

Warning! This wasn't my normal routine or ideal routine but I did what I had to work with.


Chest: Incline DB press 6 sets
Incline DB press (2 half reps followed by a full rep and twist the dumbell at the top) 2 sets
Incline DB fly 4 sets
HS Chest Press 3 sets
Fly Machine 3 sets

Tris: Pushdown machine 3 sets
DB overhead press 3 sets
Rope Extensions 3 sets
Underhand extension 2 sets

I had no work so I got to the gym in the morning. Usually at my gym Monday holidays are packed with powerlifters taking up everything. It hasn't been that way the last few holidays but Monday was crammed like it was a meet. I had to just grab what equipment I could and just decided to stay there rather than losing my spot looking for the equipment I wanted to use.

Pump: Pump was great. I was able to feel it in my chest but it wasn't supper tight feeling which was good and allowed me to finish my workout at full strength. The 2 partial reps and the twist really felt like I was squeezing my pec's really tight. The tricep pump hit hard and felt solid. When I was doing cardio I was really able to feel my chest and tri's pumped up as I was moving.

Strength: It's right where it should be, it's not skyrocketing but it's not going down.

Aggression: I'm not getting a ton of aggression. I'm not short tempered at all. More like I'm in a decent mood and more easy going.

Tuesday: Back/Bi

Back: Pull ups 2 sets
BB Row 4 sets
DB Row 3 sets
Rope Lat Pull Down 3 sets
Deadlifts 4 sets
Meadow rows 3 sets

Bi: DB Curl 4 sets
HS Preacher curl 3 sets
Flat pad cable preacher 3 sets

Agreesion: So a few days ago I commented how I haven't gotten mad or anything on this product. This changed yesterday when I found out the agreement I had on a house and have been going through the necessary steps to get everything in line that the guy went and sold the house for cash. Can't really hate on him for taking cash for it rather than waiting for the slow banks but at least tell me. Don't wait for me to ask for things and then text me that you sold it then not answer your phone when I call. End Rant.....Either way I went to the gym for one purpose and it was to release some aggression. It was tough to keep my rest periods as I felt edgy and just wanted to keep goin. Really sore this morning because of it.

Pump: Felt like my back was a balloon. Maybe because of the short rest periods, but wow I could swear I had a pro bodybuilder sized back. Awesome bicep pumps as well really difficult just to straighten my arms after that. Felt really good.

Vascularity: I didn't notice when I was doing pull ups. But before I even did my first rep on the BB row I saw veins popping from the front of my shoulders. I saw them a few weeks ago but they were much more noticeable now. Maybe I'm leaning out and not knowing it?

Note: I've noticed the last few nights I wake up to go to the bathroom a few times a night. I also have the urge every single night to get a glass of water. I'm guessing it's the potasium nitrate in the product thats causing this. Not too concerned and actually welcome something that makes it easier to get in some water.

What time of the day/night do you workout?

[Young Gotti]

What time of the day/night do you workout?

i usually get to the gym around 5:45pm everyday except saturday when i go during the day, unless i'm off from work then i try and get it over with in the morning

Wednesday: Yoga/Cardio

Got to the gym a bit early so I did 10minutes HIIT on an eliptical, the last 20 seconds of every minutes were sprints

Yoga class really humbled me. I tend to think I have good balance and I try to stretch as often as I could. Last night I was wobbling(sp) when standing on one leg, loosing my balance for random poses we had to hold and I felt things stretch that I haven't felt stretch in a very long time. It was to a point where I thought I might have been stretching my legs to a point that I almost felt a minor pump. With yoga being on a Wednesday and Tuesday being my back day the stretching of my back felt amazing. Significant feeling of lat stretch and lower back stretching really felt refreshing.

You're a true man, you do yoga

haha i took the class in college....but at this point i figure something like yoga has more benefits for me that i should take advantage of...even though i feel like a hippie while doing it

Thursday: Legs

Legs: Sissy Squats: 3 sets x 10
Squat: 5 sets (compound)
SLDL: 4 sets
Seated Calf Raises: 5 sets, last set was triple drop set
Leg Extensions: 4 sets (did them seated forward and chest in the air to shorten the quad muscle rather than sitting back)
Lieing Leg Curls: 2 sets

Pumps: Really solid, during the second set of the squats I really felt my upper legs explode. They seem to really pump during the set and right after but die down after about a minute. The calves were really popping during the raises and the muscle contraction was crazy. The SLDL were also pretty crazy in terms of muscle contractions.

Strength: It was up and down...mostly up. The squats weren't where I would have wanted them to be but I had to use the bad squat rack where I'm in the middle of two heights on the rack so I have to almost shrug the bar over the the clasps. Other than that my strength was on point and I felt fresh the whole time.

Libido: Was super high last night, it was difficult to control myself. WOW! I had a one track mind last night once I got home.

Acne: Started seeing my first signs of acne. Not bad break out or anything, just a little guy and I don't usually break out too bad. (knock on wood)

Note: My bottle was on my dresser and my g/f asked what it was so I told her what it was. Yesterday she said "your arms look like they are getting a lot bigger since you started that "stuff" ". I have been eating more but I always love when someone who sees me everyday notices changes in my body, because then you know it's noticeable over the person you see once every six months.

Friday: Off Day

Def need this day off. I'm sore all over and feel worn out from the long week. My neck is hurting this morning so a nice relaxing night is in the works for me hopefully.

Also gotta get on the foam roller for sure since I missed it this week.

[Young Gotti]

Saturday: Shoulders

Shoulders: DB side raises: 5 sets
BB Wide grip high row 4 sets
Plate loaded real delt fly supersetted w/ plate loaded press 4 sets
Cable side raises supersetted w/ rear delt cable fly 3 sets

Kind of wanted to change it up a bit and really hit the middle and rear delts.

Pumps: Actually nothing special, kind of odd considering I usually always get pumps during side raises but maybe because I did them so early in the workout. Other than that didn't get a big pump or tight pump. Did notice a nice little bit of roundness overall in my shoulders though. Maybe I just wasn't able to connect with the pumps, not sure.

Vascularity: The veins in my shoulders continue to be easier to see. They aren't really growing in length but seem to be sticking out a bit more and more which is cool.

Strength: Really good for side raises and high rows. Maybe because I did them so early in my workout while I was totally fresh but I was happy with the weight I was pushing. Even the rear delt flys were solid in terms of weight.

I left the gym thinking I wasn't totally into my workout and didn't have a good workout but now that I'm typing this and thinking about the different aspect it was a pretty good workout.

If my calculations are correct we're heading into the last week of this log. I have a pretty good feeling on most of the different aspects this product has to offer but lets see if Tropinol has anything up it's sleeves for the last week.

[UncleWade]

I'm ready to see how this last week goes (and maybe you should consider getting another bottle to keep this going ).

Glad to see that the strength and vascularity are still going strong!

Definitely a great market to take advantage of right now! I'm a finance & marketing major so the fact that housing prices are relatively low, combined with very low interest rates, is very attractive to me. I hope I graduate and settle down in time before inflation and rising interest rates hit so I can get in on this!

Probably the only acceptable reason not to buy more iForce stuff.
