I finally received my BAM today. I would like to take this time to thank FnF, Viperspit and anyone else involved for this opportunity. Unfortunately, I had the flu all last week. It was probably the worst I have ever had it and finally got back to the gym today for the first time in eight days. I didn't eat anything for three days and by the time the week was over I had lost 10lbs. However, I have gained 5lbs. back within the last 2-3 days just from being able to eat and drink fluids normally again. I plan to start the BAM tomorrow, so my starting weight will be down a few pounds yet from where I was before the flu. I will be posting before and after pictures as well as body part measurements. My weight will be logged once per week. I should have the numbers up later tonight or tomorrow morning.

Day#1 (Legs)

Well I started BAM last night and today was my second day back to the gym and my first leg workout since I came down with the flu 1.5 weeks ago. Needless to say, I don't have anywhere near the energy or strength that I did before I got the flu. I felt really weak today doing legs. But with a little time I'm determined to come back bigger and better. So here is todays leg workout....

My training split is as follows.....

Chest/Back
Legs
Shoulders/Arms
Rest
Repeat

Each bodypart twice within 7-8 days. The exercises will vary from workout to workout. I generally choose two exercises per body part and do 2-3 working sets for each exercise.

Day#2 (Rest)

Well today is my second day on BAM and it is an OFF day for me. I have nothing report in regards to the BAM as of yet. But after taking a full week off from the gym, my last two workouts have left me a little more sore than usual so I could really use this day to rest. I will be back at it tomorrow with chest/back.

Nathan, try adding an iron supplement for a week, cheap at CVS or drug store. I think you may benefit greatly from this.


50mg 2 x daily. Call me in 1 week :D

Day#4 (Shoulders/Arms)

Today I felt better than I have in weeks. My sense of well being was great today. My workout felt great and the numbers are coming back up. I did have a pretty bad headache earlier in the day. Whether that was related to the BAM or not I do not know but I will keep an eye on it. I checked my blood pressure and it was actually down about 10 points and my heart rate was down about 10 beats per minute compared to what it has been lately. Once again, I don't know if this was just a fluke or what, but I will continue to monitor things. Overall, I just felt great today. Here's my workout.....

Day #6 (Legs)

Slight headaches are pretty much an everyday thing so far. My carbs are through the roof and I'm drinking water like a fish, so I don't know. I also have been slightly constipated the last couple days, that I don't like.....On to the good. I haven't gained any weight thus far, but I feel harder, look bigger and my bodyfat seems to really be going down for some reason. So there seems to be some definite recomp. going on. So on to the workout.....

225 x 10
275 x 5

Day #16 (Chest/Back)

Bodyweight update: +1 pound (192.5). I'm definitely not seeing the bodyweight increases that I was expecting so far. However, I did not measure my bodyfat when I started. And I would say there is some definite recomp going on and that my LBM is probably higher than the bodyweight numbers themselves are showing. My strength numbers have been climbing slowly but nothing drastic, most of my numbers are just getting back to where I was before I came down with the flu. But my mood is the most noticeable effect I have noticed so far from BAM. I just feel great all the time! :D Anyway, on to tonight's workout....

Day #18 (Shoulders/Arms)

Yesterday was an off day for me. Today I got to the gym with 35 minutes to work out before they closed. :( So there was a lot of super-sets going on. For shoulders I did seated dumbell presses immediately followed by side laterals and then dumbell shrugs. There was very little rest in between sets so my numbers were down just a little on side laterals and shrugs just out of fatigue. Then I super-set arms doing one set of biceps followed immediately by a set for triceps. Heres today's exercises and weights......

Day #48

I haven't logged my last week of workouts, but I did want to give an update. I'm now 7 weeks into BAM. The continous strength increases I was seeing in weeks 1-5 have definitely slowed. My bodyweight is now 197lbs. That is up 1lb. since my last update and 7lbs. since beginning BAM. No side effects to report. About one more week to go and we will be wrapping this log up. I'm training chest tonight and I might have those numbers up later on. Until then.....

OK everyone here it is.....The final review of my 8 weeks of BAM....

First I will start off my with new bodyweight and measurements....

*All measurements just like at the start of the log are COLD*

Height: 5'11"
Weight: 197 (+7lbs.)
Chest: 44" (+1")
Waist: 33.5"
Right Arm: 15.75" (+0.25")
Left Arm: 15.75" (+0.25")
Right Calve: 14.5" (+0.25")
Left Calve: 14.75"
Right Thigh: 23.5" (+0.5")
Left Thigh: 23.5" (+0.5")

Rating of the following Areas: (1-10 scale, 10 being highest)

Strength (Rating = 9)

I would say increased strength was probably the most noticable effect while using BAM. Especially during the first 5 weeks or so. My weights would continually climb from one workout to the next. It was awesome! :)

Size ( weight increases & measurement comparisons) (Rating = 7)

To be honest I was expecting a little more in this department. But don't get me wrong, there was an obvious size increase if you take a look at my before and after measurements, it was just a little less than what I was hoping for. But who knows, maybe I set my expectations too high and didn't know what to expect from a product like this.

Side Effects (Rating = 9)

With this product I experienced very little side effects. The only negative side effect I had was slight headaches for the first two weeks or so. After that it was smooth sailing.

Recovery (Rating = 1)

I did not notice anything in regards to my recovery

Mood (Rating = 8)

My mood was probably the second biggest thing I noticed while using BAM, especially during the first 4 weeks or so. I had an extremely good sense of well being. I felt great all the time.

Overall assessment (Rating = 8)

My overall assessment of BAM is that it's a good product. You will experience strength increases without a doubt. I'm not so sure it's a big time mass builder, but you will put on a little size. I would say 5 lbs. in 4 weeks is about what this product is good for on average. There are little to no side effects. I'm very interested in trying out some other ALRI products in the near future. Thanks a ton to ALRI, Viperspit and FnF for this opportunity. It was good! :)
