MCCREW530 ginny pigs the new TD Ep1c from Olympus!

[McCrew530]

I want to give my upmost gratitude to the guys at Olympus Labs for letting me be one of the first people to check out the New Transdermal form of Ep1c (-)-epicatechin. I ran the oral version for a few months and noticed some benefits in strength, had some body composition leaning effects and put on a few lbs of muscle.

During this run I will be updating week by week with pictures, and doing daily updates with workouts. (except for this weekend its my birthday on the 5th and I will be out camping and riding my new dirtbike :friday

I will be using one pump prior to my shower

I will be judging this product on:
Pump, body changes, strength, endurance. absorption,

I will be eating for more of a recomp with a majority of my cals coming from carbs and proteins

I will be utilizing a pyramid training style with drop set finishers.

Stats:
Height 5"11
Weight 210
BF 12-15 percent
calories 3000-3500
Work out schedule: I train on instinct and will take sporadic days off depending on how I feel

Any questions feel free to ask!

Now.... Lets get this started!

Well arent you the eager beaver. :35:

The oral version was solid and gave me rock hard pumps and zero negative I am hoping to get the same with some enhanced recomp effects due to the sustained release that topical are known for.

I'm In

Thanks for joining up brother!

Thanks brother I have been working on forming my delts so they pop more and trying to give my back some width.

 

[McCrew530]

Both would be solid options but as this is still in development I would probably look into TD lax

This is what I'm most interested in. How, many guys who are running this have oral epi experience?

I am un sure but I will say Follderone( Not sure about spelling) < Ep1c And I would imagine this TD Epic will be great but Taking oral Ep1c Pre-workout then TD for the rest of the day will be stellar!

Thoughts: After taking my post Work out shower I applied the TD Ep1c and my skin wasn't all the way dry and it took for ever for it to saturate my skin. Other than that everything is feeling good. More to come!


Afternoon Pick me up: ( Felt like fist bumping the Sh!t out of my work out LOL)

Believe they are keeping this undisclosed for now. Think the owner/head rep said they'll release that info after the initial logs?

Thoughts:
Well after being on the TD epi for a week I am already noticing that I am feeling more of an all day pump vs a quick pump with the oral version. also my strength and endurance is up. I am thinking this is a winner.

 

[bcazo]

Nice!!! Loving that fact your feeling a steady pump!!. That session was pumped too...
