Alphamax + Ep1c unleashed + Dermastrength unleashed

[MJW]

I started a stack with alphamax, ep1c unleashed and dermastrength unleashed about a week ago. I will be running 2 bottles of alphamax, 2 bottles of ep1c, and one of the dermastrength. Cycle should last about 8 weeks. Other supplements I will be taking is hydro3, creatine mono, soy lecithin, pre workout, multivitamins, fish oil, and maybe some branched chain aminos. Goals for me as always is a lean bulk. Will consume between 4000-7000 calories a day. Will not be posting every day. Will try to update as much as possible, probably like a few days a week.

Stats
Age: 21
Height: 5'9 1/2
Weight: 165 lbs
Bf: ranges between 7-10%

Bench: 275 lbs (haven't yet tried to go higher)
Deadlift: won't be doing heavy because of a disk injury (last I did was 450 lbs)
Squat: 315 lbs

And let the gains begin...

Definitely in here !!! Hows it going ???
Alphamax is great !!!!

 

[MJW]

Going good so far. Can't say too much since it's only been about a week. I feel like pumps in the gym are better though. Am still waiting on my hydro3 and other bottles of alphamax and ep1c unleashed to come in the mail. First time taking nitrates. Want to see if they live up to the hype.

Very strong bench for your weight. Is your goal just to put on as much weight as possible?

Thank you. Didn't know my bench was even good. And yes, putting g on weight has always been my goal since day 1, 6 years ago. I know everyone uses their metabolism as an excuse, but my metabolism has always been rediculously fast. Guess you could say I'm a hard gainer. Fat percentage stays between 7-8% even if I eat 8 thousand calories. May have to do with my ibsd that I have.

 

[john.patterson]

In for this. Awesome intro man. Looking forward to seeing your progress

 

[MJW]

Will be hitting chest tonight

Like I said before, I will try to post frequently but sometimes I won't be able to because I work 2 jobs and go to the fire academy. Big time commitment.

 

[MJW]

Post chest

 

[MJW]

Other 2 bottles, plus hydro3 came in!

 

[AntM1564]

And people that work one job say they don't have time to go to the gym. Post when you can my friend!

 

[MJW]

Did back and bi's today. Will try to post the full routine tomorrow but for now I'm going to get some sleep lol. Went good though. Pumps off of hydro3 were unreal. Almost painful haha. No stomach issues today... but probably will have some tomorrow because I just ate fast food before going to bed..

 

[MJW]

Oh and I had a question about ep1c that maybe a rep of ol or someone else can answer... on the bottle of ep1c unleashed, green tea extract is the first ingredient and I'm wondering if this is a decaffeinated version. Actually I'm not wondering, It must have caffeine because I get jittery as hell when I stack it with my pwo. When I do take a pre workout, I have to take half a serving or less so I don't feel like my heart is going to rip out of my chest. So I guess the question is, how much caffeine is in this stuff? so I know how much caffeine to limit myself to through out the day. Another thing I'm kind of wondering, is why put caffeine in it? I understand it helps with fat burning but I don't like when it restricts me from getting a better jump start from a pre wrokout.

 

[MJW]

Pumps have been rediculous. Had fire academy all day and am exhausted. Still gonna try to get it in at the gym tonight.

 

[bighulksmash]

Your doing great . Hows the strength coming?

 

[MJW]

Strength hasn't gone up. But it's only been a few weeks. I feel like my muscular endurance has gone up though. Takes me longer into the workout for me to fatigue

 

[bighulksmash]

Thats always a plus . Endurance is important for the fire Academy .

 

[MJW]

Thought I'd be dragging today at the gym because of my crazy exhausting pt session today. Still went to the gym and the workout was one of the best I've had in a long time. Did shoulders, abs and some legs (I try to do atleast some squats every other day). Wouldnt say my lifts have gone up much, but like I said before my endurance was great. My shoulders were already burnt out this morning from pt at the fire academy and didn't think I'd be able to lift my own arms for a shoulder workout. Well I was wrong. I lifted just as heavy (if not heavier) as usual, but was able to do more supersets than I usually do. Overall, great workout.

 

[MJW]

Oh and I accidentally dosed one ep1c in the morning and one before workout because I didn't think I'd be working out at the gym today. Bottle says 2 before workout and 1 on off days. Oh well. Don't think it'll really matter.

it really doesn't. Spacing out the dosage just helps the other benefits and two at once increases the acute benefits. Keep up the good work in here though!

 

[MJW]

Really sore today. Time for an off day. I usually don't plan? My off days. My body tells me haha

 

[john.patterson]

Being sore makes rest days feel right. I always enjoy my rest days when I know my body really needs the recovery. Glad you're being smart about it man!

Hhmmm, the effects your feeling are interesting but most definitely aren't coming from the EP1C Unleashed. The flavonoid extract itself come from the Green Tea Leaf itself. Green tea usually doesn't have a substantial amount of caffeine to warrant concern. Still using the same PWO?

 

[TheMovement]

Awesome layout so far and curious to see what else ya got in store!

 

[MMAMONSTER19]

subbed this is gonna be good

I did switch pre workouts so that could be it. Am going to try taking an old one and see how that works.

What are the PWOs youve been taking anyway?

Hows your cal intake holding???

Extremely curious as to why the huge fluctuation between 4k-7k calories. Thats huge unless you are one to work off of weekly calorie goals. Its doable but can lead to inconsistency and can hinder your lean bulk.

Your Dermastrength application doing well?

 

[MJW]

On average I get about 4-5k. But since I'm bulking I aim higher. Sometimes it doesn't always work because I'm away from home sometimes 20 hours a day working with little time to grab a filling meal. But my pre workout is undesputed by nubreed nutriton. And the dermastrength is going good. Debating whether I should use 1 or 2 pumps a day.

 

[MJW]

Workouts have been great. If things get better from here, I could honestly say I like this cycle better than the ostar1ne I had. Still early to tell though.

 

[MJW]

Going to try max out 2 by ifn for a new pre workout.

There's a Max Out 2?

 

[MJW]

There's a Max Out 2?

I lied. It's just max out and not max out 2 by I force nutrition.

That's what I thought, I thought I was slacking there for a second hahah. Max Out is good stuff!

I was thinking of hemovo2 that I tried

 

[bighulksmash]

Very knowledgeable log here . im liking this!

 

[MJW]

Workout was pretty good besides the gym deciding it was a good time to bust out the mop with extra ammonia that I was gagging on. Other than that chest day went good. No pr's but had a great pump. Liking this max out. Wish it had beta alanine though. Keep forgetting to use dermastrength pre workout. Noticed my joints are feeling a little dry. Might up my fish oil intake.

the arimistane has been known to dry out the joints of some people, upping the fish oil will help

Yeah, I experienced that when taking nolvadren xt. Fish oil helped alot

 

[MJW]

So far I'm noticing looking more vascular. Definitely keeping me lean. I feel like my cardio endurance has been pretty good. Ep1c seems like it usually helps me with that

 

[john.patterson]

One of my favorite benefits with Alphamax is the vascularity. Sounds like the synergy of the products is doing you good too. Nice work bro. How are your joints?

Joints feel a little dry. Mostly my right shoulder (I had labrum repair surgery years ago). But it's not bad enough to where I'd want to stop.

Gotcha. Hopefully it won't get any worse. Up the fish oil and make sure you're warming up properly, shoulders are the worst hahah
