Recomping with Follidrone/Other Goodies (Unsponsored)
Hello everyone. This log was initially going to be a cutting log but I am going for a recomp instead in order to fill my goals of maintaining strength and increasing conditioning. I follow a 3 day a week, full body program consisting of the big main lifts and some small assistance. I'll be squatting for volume/technique as opposed to maximum intensity, and be also doing Hill Sprints as well post workout. I am 24, 5'11, and 198 lbs at the start of this log. Here's my supplement stack:
SNS Creatine (5g mixed with Protein only on workout days)
Controlled Labs Orange Triad
Evomuse Sleephoria (1 cap 30 minutes before bed, started on Week 3, Day 1 of this Log)
PES Norcodrene (1 cap pre-workout)
PES Alpha T2 (1 cap pre-workout, 2 caps 6 hours later)
Nimbus Nutrition Reform (2 caps pre-workout, 2 caps 4 hours later)
Omega Sports Burn24 (2 caps before each meal, 6 total)
Black Lion Research Follidrone (2 caps pre-workout)
My calories will be between 2600-2900, with macros of 160-200g Protein, 80-100g Fat, and the rest filled in with Carbs.
Week 1 Effects:
- Gained 3 lbs (201 lbs)
- More definition/looking leaner
- More endurance
- Better recovery
- Slightly increased libido
Week 2 Effects:
- Great endurance (either through muscular or nervous fatigue, because I'm barely taking breaks and still pulling off sets I couldn't do before and I don't feel mentally drained)
- Strong pumps (comparable to when I stacked ArA/Anabeta/Hemavol)
- More definition (I have been eating recomp style calories and my back/lower mid section/arms are becoming more defined.)
- Body weight increase has stopped (I'm sitting at 203 right now, up from 198 all the way back at the beginning of the log)
Week 3 Effects:
- Great endurance
- Increase in top-end strength (could be indirectly or directly related to increased endurance)
- Great Pumps
Week 4 Effects:
- Deload Week
Week 5 Effects:
- Pretty much the same thing as always. Great endurance and I feel like I can squeeze out more top-end reps
- Pumps are strong
Week 6 Effects:
- Pretty much the same thing as all of the other weeks. I don't think this is a supplement that needs "saturation". It seems to work right away and work constantly.
Week 7 Effects:
- Good volume. At a lighter weight my strength still remains strong.
Week 8 Effects:
- Deload week.
