I'm fortunate enough to have been given the opportunity to beta test Performax Labs' Natural Anabolic Complex.
I've been using it for a few days so far, and have seemed to notice increased vascularity, especially post-workout (more vascularity and for a longer period of time).
I have been (and will continue to) log each workout I do, and post them up here, as that is a very good way to track progress. I typically use a spreadsheet on Google docs on my phone and plug in reps and weights between sets. I also keep track of rest periods, so the workout logs will be pretty detailed and valuable. I will post up the workouts I've already done while using the Natural Anabolic, as well as a few from before starting it so we have a baseline to start at and gauge progress.
As for pics, I plan on taking progress pics once a week, first thing in the morning. I will likely take pics in several various poses to see how I am progressing. I will also probably take some pics at other times, such as post-workout with a pump, and post them up as well.
As for specifics about my training:
-Work each muscle 2x per week
---Day 1: Chest, Back, Traps
---Day 2: Delts, Arms
---Day 3: Legs
---Days 4-6: Repeat 1-3
---Day 7: Rest
Calves and abs are worked between 3-6 days per week, depending on various factors.
I like to keep rest periods short (1 minute normally), and start my chest and back workouts off by alternating sets (1 set incline bench, 1 min rest, 1 set pull ups, 1 min rest, repeat, etc), then going to supersets.
I typically do 12-18 (normally ~15) sets for each body part, with the first exercise for each body part ending with a drop set.
Supplements I take now:
-HyperMax XT (new formula)
-PowerMax XT (updated CreMax XT)
-Lecithin Granules (3 tbsp; a staple for me)
-Vitamin D3 (4000 IU)
-Spirulina (4-8g)
-Microlactin
-Bromelain
Stats:
5'11"
21 years old
Low 150lb weight (~153 at start of log?)
---It may not mean anything, but I have never taken anything hormonal, so I can not compare this to something of that sort, so perhaps keep that in mind here.
I'm not really going to be maxing out, but my training logs will provide a good measure of tracking progression on various lists, particularly the lifts I tend to start my workouts with:
-Barbell Incline Press
-Wide Grip Pull Ups (often weighted)
-Barbell Shoulder Press (usually seated)
-Squats or Front Squats
-Standing Calf Raises
I'll post up some pics to get things started for now, along with past workout logs later. I think I'll take some progress pics either tomorrow or the next morning (no pump), and we will get things started in here!
