Decimating BF with Double S

[double s]

Morning All,

Excited to have been chosen to try the new Genomyx Decimate. Appears to be a good not overly loaded fat burner.

As for me, 5’8” guestimating 183-185 lbs ( will verify this tmw on scale at work) and hovering around 12-13% BF.

My goal this year is to return to a bodybuilding stage after a 15 yr hiatus, targeting July so with Decimate I am looking to very slowly drop weight.

Diet is 6-7 meals, 1 meal with decent amount of carbs, next meal low/no carbs straight protein.

Just getting back into the swing of things after being down for the last week and half with a nasty stomach bug.

1 cap of Decimate today to test for tolerance

25 minutes HIT treadmill (4-6mph) – 250 kcals

Biceps:

Straight bar curls
Superset Forearm/Biceps
45lbs x12 / 55lbs x 12 / 60lbs x 12

Seated DB Curls inside thigh Supersetted with triceps rubber band pushdown

20 lbs x 10 / 2 bands for 15 reps
20 x 10 / 3 bands for 12 reps
25 x 8 / 3 bands for 12 reps
25 x8 / 3 bands for 15 reps

Skullcrushers

45 x 12
65 x 9
65 x 10

So first day assessment. Took 1 cap and waited around 20 minutes to absorb. Have to admit didn’t feel any triggers so decided to jump on the treadmill. Nice smooth consistent burn. Wasn’t sweating or anything but definitely a good state of euphoria even after a great workout.

Thanks for reading

EDIT - so unfortunately did not do afternoon workout as company had a BBQ.

I did take one cap prior to lunch.

Quick observation - when taken on empty stomach with no food for a while - good feeling, but when taken followed by food, defininitely feel it messing with my head..

Morning chuckle

Thursday….post hump day

Today all in (2) caps. Holy sh@t what a difference. About 15 minutes of waiting, my face was on fire. Felt like someone was firing a blow torch in my face. I have had beta alanine tingles but this was a whole other type of burn. Face was cool to the touch but burning from within. Again only my face. Nothing else.

This soon subsided about 10 mins into my treadmill work.

Treadmill

23 mins HIT (4-6 mph) = 215 cals

Quads:

Extensions
45 x 20
55 x 20
65 x 20
65 x 20

Squats super deep feet shoulder with apart

Each rep is slow and methodical, prob 6-8 secs for each rep. The days of stacking the bar and up and downs are over. At my age, who cares how much I truly bench/squat, it’s more about how I look in a tank top or shirtless……

115 x 12
135 12
155 x 8
155 x 8
115 x 7

Back this afternoon for continued leg workout.

 

[jjobe6]

How was the energy from 2 pills?

How was the energy from 2 pills?

It's interesting. Aside from my face literally on fire didn't feel too much and I am not a stim junkie.

I feel a little something when ingested with food.

Perhaps this is more of a product to be used with food then a standalone? Label does say ingest with food

 

[DJBeanPole]

[DJBeanPole]

Are you taking with or without food? Immediately preworkout or allowing it some time (30 min to even a few hours) to kick in?

Morning all,

No weights today strictly cardio

(2) caps and 25 minutes on the treadmill, 25 minutes 4.1 = 240 calories

Nothing really to report, no fire in my face today.......

Enjoy the weekend!

 

[double s]

Sunday
(2) caps today
15 mins on treadmill while watching House of Lies
Chest
Flat Bench

So 2 weeks in and my feelings are neutral to negative, have not been able to get a good burn going during cardio and with 2 caps do not really feel anything at all. I can say that I do have a good state of euphoria and seems to have a decent neurotropic but as for thermo not soo much.
Sorry to be so honest but again I pride myself on honesty.

Have a great Sunday

Will do that. I have taken 1 with food and have not really felt anything.

Ironically enough I gave my wife (2) caps yesterday morning (fasted prior to cardio). Let me first say she is quite stim tolerant ad is Colombian. She said she didn't feel much in reagrds to sweating, energy etc but said she had no appetite until about 4:00.

 

[double s]

Tuesday

Had a killer bi’s and tri’s workout

Followed up with (1) capsule with my post workout feeding, didn’t feel anything.

Wednesday

No caps this morning as I will take (2) with my mid morning meal (egg whites and oatmeal) prior to my afternoon workout.

Hamstrings

Good Mornings:

(2) w/u – bar – 12 reps
(2) 65 x 12

Stiff legged using Curl Bar

[double s]

So I took the advice of the almighty Beanpole and had 2 capsules with my midmorning meal 6 egg whites, cup of oatmeal and blackberries at 10:00.

Workout at 12. Felt alert, nothing over the top but workout went smooth

Sitff legged DB's 25-40 lbs
lying leg curls 65-90

Standing calf raises (bodyweight) and calf presses 80-100

As I sit here writing this my appetite is non existent as I try to force feed my lunch

So I have to say - strong apetite supressant but not much of a Thermo.

Did the appetite suppression just kick in? Or has been from day1?

Did the appetite suppression just kick in? Or has been from day1?

So it is interesting

my wife took this first thing in the morning, empty stomach and said it crushed her appetite.

I take it empty stomach and really feel nothing. I take 2 caps with food and it crushed my appetite for the day. 2 caps definitely does the trick.

Guess the question is, are you lookign for an appetite suppresant or something with a true thermo effect

 

[RegisterJr]

In and all caught up!

Looking good in here, DoubleS.

I wonder if adding 200-400mg caffeine would help with the extra stim effect when working out. I might have missed over it, but are you taking any PWO other than the thermo?

That is interesting. I am more interested in the appetite suppression. I rarely if ever 'feel' the thermo effect of anything. Has it gotten more pronounced with use?

Jr - I am somewhat stim sensitive so adding more caffience to this would probably not do the trick for me, I have added an AL Carnitine but nothing else.

JJ - yesterday or day before was the first time I took 2 caps with meal so have not tried this a second time.

 

[double s]

Morning guys, no Decimate this morning but will take it later with lunch

15 minutes treadmill 4.1 mps = 152 cals

Shoulders,

4 sets 10 lbs plate, - side raises, come around to the front and raises (kind of 3 in 1)

Arnold Presses - 25 lbs 4 sets

Upright raises; curl bar

45 x 12
65 x 12
65 x 14

Have a great weekend!

 

[RegisterJr]

Nice raise DS.

You have a good weekend also!

 

[DJBeanPole]

Glad to see the appetite suppression is in full effect with you and your wife. I believe the directions state to take it with your breakfast in the morning and prepare for appetite obliteration!

As far as thermo goes I rarely get any thermogenesis from any fat burner so your mileage my vary

 

[double s]

As King Beanpole would say, good morning Youtubers, Locker room and AM’ers

So an update from yesterday:

Took 2 caps with my lunch at 1:00. Had to literally force myself to eat my 3:30 snack. Appetite finally came back around 7:30 for a later dinner. Appetite was obliterated.


Today nothing in the tank aside from some BCAA’s…..

Generally it is chest day but shoulder acting up so doing some Quads….

Leg extensions

4 sets 65 for 20-25

Squats (feet forward about 1 foot apart)

As many of you know me or get to know me, I am not in this game for high poundages. I see soo many people in the gym squatting 400+ , benching 350++ but when you see them in shorts or without a shirt you wouldn’t even think they lifted.

I believe in isolations, slow and methodical

115 x 15
135 x 13
165 x 10
185 x 7
185 x 8
115 x 8

Short workout, time to play chauffer and take my daughter to swim practice…

Thanks for reading!
