BLACK LION RESEARCH NEW (-)-EPICATECHIN

[EMPIREMIND]

Ive been blessed with the oppotunity to run brundel 's new -epi product. I have a few of the latest and greatest -epi products in my stash, but due to timing of my logs and regimen, I have yet to try -epi before. I am really looking forward to this based on all the buzz and controversy.

I will be running this in conjunction with BLRs new AI/fat burner transdermal as well http://anabolicminds.com/forum/supplement-reviews-logs/267301-black-lion-research.html . I have been logging the first version for around 20 days and love it. I am pretty much in a recomp phase standing at 6' 220 lbs and around 14%bf

As per brundel i will be increasing my cals by atleast 500 daily. Bringing me up to around 3000 cals. Depending on progress i may wind up increasing that as needed. He has told me some great things about this product, but i will let him weigh in to give any further details.

I will be doing three caps a day on empty stomach split doses.

 

[EMPIREMIND]

Day 1

It begins.

Got a package late in the evening, i was suprised it was this. Very excited! I took one cap and hit the gym. Day 2 will be my first day fully dosed.

I Had a monster back and arms workout. I Didnt base this on the product, and honestly feel no placebo effect. I dont know what to expect because i never ran a product like this and most of the time talk is cheap. I have definitely been eating right and feeling strong. Lets see what happens!

Most people dont "feel" epicatechin like you would a steroid.
Instead you start to notice improvements in endurance and strength and physique. The stuff he is testing has a solid dose of Epicatechin plus 2 new actives that are impressive on their own but complement the epi which is why they are in there and...2 absorption enhancers.
We tested all kinds of things for absorption enhancement and this combo was the only one where everyone really noticed a difference from just regular epi.
This took time of course because testers have to run a cycle, take measurements and log lifts etc and then do it again with a different version....we had to use dozens of testers. This version he is running looks like it might be the final version. It out performed (-)-epicatechin solo by alot so well see how this goes

Your shoulders should look like Bowling Balls after that work out. Do you have any problems doing the behind the neck presses, some people (me included) have rotator cuff problems after these?

Believe it or not i dont. I actually find the smith machine to mitigate all shoulder pain. and sometime on barbell presses i feel less pain behind the neck with a wider grip. this whole workout i did however was done in the middle to low rom and kept constant tension on the muscles the whole time, no lock-outs. Honestly my joints feel better and my shoulders chest and arms are really sore, which for me itsnt the norm lol

 

[EMPIREMIND]

Lol so i tried to write lock outs as one word (quick typing) on my last post and it was censored automaticallly as *******s. Thought that was funny!

Thanks for listening lol now back to schedueled programming

Took a cap in the am, midday before my cardio and pm. Before my workout. I had to take a nap after work, when i woke up i went to the gym and did a monster leg session. 1203 x 11 is a definite pr or very close to one, if i recall im somewhere in the 1200's x 10. The leg press dropset was so difficult and definitely rewarding once complete. So far so good!

barbell clean to front squat? aka a regular clean? or power clean to front squat. Just a little confused on the terminology used

 

[highlander31]

Why the fasted AM Workout? What do you find the benefits are?

 

[EMPIREMIND]

barbell clean to front squat? aka a regular clean? or power clean to front squat. Just a little confused on the terminology used

Sorry. I used to know all the differences but forgot after not doing them for years. My boy who played ball for maryland got me doing stuff from thier program on the am session. That was his workout. I used it like a cardio almost. Anyways: it was a clean from the floor, then once the bar was on my shoulders, a full front squat, then bar back to the ground = 1 rep

 

[EMPIREMIND]

Why the fasted AM Workout? What do you find the benefits are?

I personally find it burns fat much faster. Caffiene on empty stomach is much more effective for me, i sweat more and have more cns stimulation. I have been running every morning fasted. This just wound up a coincidence that my boy wanted to workout and do this football strentgh program he had been given from his coaches. I tagged along instead of doing the am run. Personally i do not like to lift fasted, my energy suffers greatly.

 

[goodvibes]

Fasted cardio does feel very effective. I knw it's calories in vs calories out but I definitely feel I lean a lot faster on fasted cardio in the AM prebreakfast

then it is a power clean . A full clean is where you catch it in the bottom of a front squat position. Terminology is wonky and many people call things something else which is why I asked

 

[brundel]

fasted cardio is more effective because there is no fuel to burn so your body has to burn itself. I always sip on some BCAAs so hopefully less muscle is wasted.
Post workout is also good .

Thanks bro. Yea i feel u. Im not really too focused on those types of lifts. I tend to do way more isolation and now even more time under tension work. My training has def been evolving with the help of some experienced people guiding me along.

Yea i was actually sipping on bcaas and a egogenic mix with hica. Normally for my twenty five minute runs i just hit the street, knock it out, shower and eat. And my runs are really jogs, not super intense. Just trying to keep my metabolism firing. I have been eating more and digestong alot quicker lately as well. Metabolism is up and so is my strentgh... Here we go brother

I have been eating more, sweet potatoes, chicken breast, oatmeal, fish, cruciferous veggies, brown rice, turkey and egg whites. In the morning ive been doing coconut oil and natural peanut butter in my shakes as well as whole eggs.

I feel good and my training has been very intense. I am definitely going to be cutting back on my overall weekly volume.

One thing i am noticing is increased vascularity and pumps, probably more from the pumps. But on the calf raises my calves had a sick pump and on the db row warm up with the 40s my biceps were pumped in one set. This is definitely something new. I will take my weight today to get an idea of where im standing right now.

Yesterday i focused on cardio and abs with no weights. Overall very productive. I was sweating bullets!

I am focusing on my rest and recovery portion of my training. Therefore i wont be hitting the weights every day like i have been, i will be taking more active rest days to recouperate. Combined with the elimination of cheat meals, but subsequent increase in calories, and carb cycling, i am expecting some great results. I have been leaning out consistently, strentgh has been rising and lately i feel like im processing my food much quicker, and im hungry withing a few hours of a large meal. Normally eating that much food i find myself force feeding at times.


Tonight i train Shoulders chest and triceps. I have been eating all day. Energized and ready to kill it.

Have fallen behind on my posting for the weekend, got extra busy, but still been logging and working hard. I have continued with the 3a day split dose on empty stomach. This weekend i went heavy on my eating and have been consistent in my training. Diet hasnt allowed any cheats, just higher volume of clean foods. Higher carbs and lots of protein. Monday tuesday and wednesday will be no carb days. Wednesday i will be training back hard and will take in fast carbs post workout. Then back to the carbs for the rest of the week. I am definitely noticing increased endurance. it will show on the latest workout which i will post later on. My vascularity has increased and my pump are becoming more pronounced. I have been taking less preworkouts and sticking to just stims, but still looking swole once im into my sets.

This past session, day 12 has really started to show me the endurance side of this -epi. I am definitely pushing hard, and inspite off the continous and consistent cardio, my leg strentgh has barely budged and i am still pushing strong. I also ran into my mentor who was training shoulders, i jumped into his workout and hit some really killer time under tension sets and he helped me push almost to negative failure. Overall some solid work, consistent throughout and with great energy dispite being a no carb day. Today will be just cardio and abs, possibly calves and forearms.

Day 12 was definitely a lot of volume bro. Just goes to show you that supplements don't do the work for you,
but they can in will make the work a lot easier to do. Especially when they're coming from a company like BLR :bigok:
