[size=+2]About Me[/size]
Name: John
Age: 26
Sex: Male
Height: 5'10
Weight: 210 lbs

Background:
I started lifting weights and running in the summer of 1996, after being inspired by the Olympics in Atlanta. I am currently a Canadian Soldier posted here in Edmonton Alberta,Canada.

What I expect out of AEN's IntraXCell:
While taking IntraXCell over the duration of this log, I hope to receive increased strength and size. I also hope to gain energy and get better endurance throughout my training.

Current Training:
I have got a new workout program it has been made up from magazines, this site, books and personal experience. It is a 4/5 day split. Designed for 3 on 1 off. I will be posting each workout with weight and reps as the log goes on.

Current Supplements:
Dymatize - Mint Chocolate Protein/Chocolate and EAS Chocolate
Jaimeson - Vitamin C
Bio-X - Multi Vitamin
Swiss - Glucosamine
IntraXCell
Steel Edge

Diet:
I don't have set meals for each day. I do try to count my calories. I do my best to eat fairly clean. My main sources of food will come from Oats, Peanut Butter, Whole Wheat Breads and Pastas, Eggs, Milk, Chicken, Tuna, Steak, Fruit/Veggies, and Protein Shakes.

Water intake will be two litres or more per day hopefully closer to 4+.

IntraXcell Dosages:
On Training days: Take half a serving(3 capsules) 15-20 minutes prior to exercise and take the other 3 capsules post workout.

On Non-training days: Continue to take one serving daily with food


Thanks:
Before I begin, I would like to send a big Thank You! To the guys at Athletic Edge Nutrition for giving me the opportunity to test IntraXCell and for throwing in some samples of Steel Edge. I will provide you with my day-to-day results from testing and my honest opinion and review throughout the duration of this log.

This log will offically begin when my shipment arrives

Weighing in at 210.8
The Workout: Shoulders
The Warm-Up: 7 minutes on the eleptical lvl 6
The Cool Down: 6 minutes on the treadmill incline @ 9
The time 13:46-roughly 14:58






Shoulders
  • Seated Shoulder Press 40x12 60x8 60x8 [size=+2]65x8 a new PR[/size]

  • Sit Ups 25, 25, 25


Overview:

Again this is just here for comparison purposes. I have yet to recieve my INTRAXCELL. Although I did set a new PR. With 65lbs in the seated shoulder press.

SAPPER Raises- It is front raise and side raise combined. Grab a DB of equal weight in each hand. With the DB by your side raise them both to your front palms facing down until they are paralell with the ground pause, then lower. Imeediately then raise the right arm out to your side until it is parallel and pause then lower. Next raise your left arm out to your side until it is parallel and pause then lower.
That counts as 1 rep!
Repeat as many times as needed!

This is just a quick update I will have a better one tonight after I workout!

I took IXC yesterday
3caps morning and thought I was going to take the day off then a friend of mine called and said he wanted to start going to they gym again so i took him to my gym and got him a 1 week pass and ended working out arms. I also took 3 caps after my workout with my post workout shake.

So far I have not noticed any tingles but my
first serving was with breakfast which was oatmeal along with protein shake
Second serving was with postworkout shake protein,milk,ice,oats

So my guess is that the oats really limit the "tingles" I am going to take a serving today before I go to the gym without food and see how if affects me


Today before I workout I will be using IXC and steel edge together for the first time Im very excited!!
 
I will be posting full workouts/exercises/routines/weights used

after every workout M/W/F

plus I will talk about any noticeable sides/benefits!

  • DB Hammer curls across chest 35x10 35x10 Drop set 35x10 25x10 20x10

Overview:

I have included 2 workouts. Thursdays and Fridays!
My routine now consists of M/W/F workouts but I was with a friend and ended up going thursday so I modified Fridays.

Well I said I would be honest maybe even brutally honest when I did this log/ review of IXC and SE.

So after 3 days of IXC, I cannot notice anything yet, I am under the impression it takes about 2 weeks to notice.
As well I have not noticed any tingles from using IXC I used it with meals and wothout, Im cool with this though!

I have used one sample of Steel Edge, Here is a quick rating

Taste- I rate it 7. I have only used one sample but I do not like taste. I am going to try using more water next time. I used 14oz last time the reccomended amount is 12-16oz. One thing I can say is that I do not like the taste of WF and this is much better than WF!

Mixability - I give this a 8.5 most of it mixed up right away. Just with the contact of the water. I noticed some small little bits would not mix but I just drank it down.

Effect!!!! - 10/10.. I know this is the highest rating it can get but well it worked. I had a awesome workout great focus great endurance and was just feeling good in the gym.

I will be adding mini reviews like this each time I use Steel Edge. So everyone including myself can tell how the effects of SE are helping me out.
On friday beofore I went to the gym, I had a busy day missed meals nutrition wasnt great but after the Steel Edge I felt great in the gym.



​
 
Well things have been going good for me.
As i have stated earlier the routine i am on now is a 3 day split.

I have 3 workouts and each week after I repeat the workout. While adding more weights hopefully

I will be unable to get to a computer Monday Night and all of tuesday, but will be able to on Wensday.

This will not change my routine and will not affect this log. I only take Steel Edge on workouy days (obvious) and I will continue to use my IXC daily!

I will have todays workout on here later.

I hope everyone has been enjoying their weekend!

Below is my split!
 
Workout 1: Bench Press, Db incline Press, Dips (if you can do 10 add weight), Cable crossover, Pull-ups (more than 10 add weight), Underhand BB rows (at 45 degree angle), Db rows, DB pullovers

Workout 2: Squats, Deadlifts, Smith machine front squats, Lying hamstring curl, Standing calve raises(both claves), Standing calve raises(1 leg at a time), Cable crunches, Hanging leg raises, Russian twist

Workout 3: Military Press (or Db shoulder press), Lateral Db raise, Db rear lateral raises, Close grip bench press, Skull crushers, Reverse grip Tricep pulldowns, EZ curl, Db hammer curl, EZ reverse curl

[size=+3]WORKOUT 1 Week 2[/size]


Weighing in at 213.2 lbs
Time of Workout 08:30-09:53
Warm Up 8 minutes on the Eliptical

The Workout: 1

  • Flat Bench Press 135x10 185x5 225x5 235x5 230x5 235x5
  • DB Incline Press 70x5 80x5 90x5 90x5
  • Dips 10,8,8
  • High Cable Cross Overs 80x5 90x5 100x5 100x5
  • Pull Ups 5 8 10
  • Bent Over DB Row 80x5 105x5 105x5 105x5
  • DB Pullover 65x5 70x5 75x5 75x5

Overview:

I think that my workout went ok, It was about 3-6 hours earlier than when I usually workout so I think that was why my strength was a little low on my Bench Press. My strength was not really down but just not as high as I would have hoped.

I love these types of workouts because I can lift more weight without having to worry about going for 8-10 reps.

IntraXCell Update...

During the first 3 days of IXC I did not really notice any effects, Since than however I have been noticing some slight tingling mainly in my face and ears.. BTW I got big ears.. Anyway it is alright and does not affect daily routine or workouts.

STEEL EDGE - Well it absolutely works I have used it twice and i have had better energy and endurance through out both workouts.
The taste- Again I am not a really a fan of the taste.

Overview:

AWESOME, I had many new PR's some were me doing sets of weight heavier then my 1 rep max ever was!!!

Including 2 Legged Leg Press I never went to 12 plates before but I did and I got 2 sets of 5 reps, plus with DL my PR is 355 but I have never done sets anywhere near as high 275lbs but I did again for 2 sets of 5 reps.
Seated Leg Curls I was doing around 165lbs now I did 200lbs for 5 reps.

I have never felt or got such a huge sudden increase in weights ever!!

IntraXCell Update...

I am getting some minor tingling with IXC mainly in my face and ears especially if taken without food.

STEEL EDGE - It has probably taken the spotlight from this log or at least for now. I am getting the best workouts ever and highest weight ever so although it is not all just the supplements but it has some part in it for sure

The taste- Again I am not a really a fan of the taste. I say mix it cold and chug it down

Another workout coming today!

Anyone noticing trouble with BBdot com I have been having trouble the past 2 days with their forum

[size=+3]WORKOUT 1 Week 3[/size]


Weighing in at 211.2 lbs
Time of Workout 21:12-22:43
Warm Up ****

The Workout: 1

  • Flat Bench Press 135x10 225x5 235x3 245x3 260x3 NEW PR 265x3 Even newer PR
  • DB Incline Press 80x5 90x4 NEW PR!! 105x3 AGAIN WTF! 105x4

  • High Cable Cross Overs 80x6 100x5 100x4 100x3 NEW PR!! 110x3
  • Pull Ups 9 8 8

  • Seated Row 180x5 195x4 NEW PR 195x5 NEW PR 225x3 225x3

Overview:

Ok that was my best workout I have ever had. In the 5 exercise I did with added weight I set new PR's!!! Sometimes I even set a new PR and then beat it and set a Higher one!!!!!

One negative thing was on my last set on High Cable Crossovers, Something happened in my right shoulder possible rotator cuff.. It felt like I had bones rubbing on my last set. I stopped of course after feeling that and today it is a little sore. The muscle is fine, just some ranges of movement are affected.
I do not think it is too serious, today is a off day and tomorrow is LEGS so I will be resting it until Friday. If it feels good on Fridays then I will carry on with my workouts, if not I will give it a day or two extra rest. Wish my luck!
Any suggestions? i already take Glucosamine, Mulit and Vitamin C and I just recently got some Invalid Link Removed So I think I will start taking it now as well.


I would like to thank Beejjisisissss for being a sabretooth! I saw his log and he was Alt DB curling 80lbs, So when I was incline DB pressing I was like WTF he can curl as much as I can press F-that! So I went 80lbs to 90lbs.. then I was like Im going to 100lbs so he wont catch up.. they were missing by I was already in the hunt.. and the poor 105lbs werent looking so I say Oh Hellz Yeah and made them my B!tch!!!


IntraXCell Update...

I am still noticing some tingles, They are stronger if I take IXC without food but nothing to overbearing. Although I believe it is supposed to take 2-3 weeks to kick in It may be showing some results all ready.

STEEL EDGE - Well it still works and i have had better energy and endurance through out every workout I have used it. I have heard about some people taking half before and half during their workout but I take 75% about 20 minutes before and the rest at the gym right before I start.

The taste- Again I am not a really a fan of the taste, but it works!

Alright another update on my shoulder

The swelling has gone down by about 50% but it is still swollen and quite swore.

I did manage to still get a leg workout in though. :bb2: I just had to modify my usual routine.

For those of you that have read this far...
I had planned on finishing up my current routine Friday and was Going to start a newer routine on Monday or Tuesday.

If my shoulder continues to give me the problems it has been I am going to cancel my friday Workout and use that rest time to help prepare for The new routine "SIZE PHASE"!!!
I will keep taking my supplements, because I still have a couple of weeks worth of IXC to log! As well as 1 or 2 samples of SE :( running low.. need my order to come in

[size=+3]WORKOUT 3 Week 2[/size]


Weighing in at Mondays Only
Time of Workout ****
Warm Up 12 minutes on the Treadmill

The Workout: 2

  • Squats I was unable to perform these do to my shoulder
  • Deadlifts I was unable to perform these do to my shoulder
  • 2 Legged Leg Press 180x10 360x6 450x5 540x5 NEW PR 590x3
  • Seated Leg Curls 150x8 180x5 195x5 200x5 200x5

  • Seated Calf Raise 1 leg 50x6 40x8 50x8
  • Seated Leg Ext.. 150x6 185x5 190x5 190x5 200x3

Overview:

OK

My shoulder is still messed up, but it did not really affect my leg day except for a few exercises switched around.

I plan on doing another leg workout in a few days to really shock them and to give me shoulder a little longer to rest...

IXC Update-
It has definately kicked in for me, I am finding that my rest time is going down even though some of the lifts are with heavier weights. Plus my strength in continuing to grow which is great. The "tingles" still happen but as mentioned before it can be lessened greatly by having some food especially some carbs and protein with it!

Steel Edge-
I am saving my next sample for the second leg day!

oh yeah you got that right!

IXC and SE are a amazing combo. I can't wait for the next AEN product to come out... I wonder if it will be able to be stacked along with these two

Alright a shoulder and ...Cardio..<--Whats that..:D

Well my shoulder swelling has gone down bigtime. It is still a little sore but it is a lot better. Monday I will continue with my workouts. I think my shoulder will be good by then...I will just warm up a little longer than usual but expect it to be ok..hopefully.


[size=+3]
Cardio WTF?[/size]​


Yes its true I actually do cardio...
I had planned on going outside for a 20-30 minute bike ride, but thunder storms and lightning had me thinking otherwise.

Luckily I have a stationary bike at home.
I went for 20 minutes and got 8.5km so it was good for me. I felt like I had a little more endurance as well, probably due to IXC.



Well I saw a movie tonight I saw the Simpsons movie,

If you are a big fan of the simpson go see it
If you sorta like the simpsons wait until it is on DVD
If you do not really like the simpsons wait until its on T.V.

It wasn't really anything special at all. There were some funny parts but not worth it. I still havent seen Transformers even though I really want to!

I went to the movies with my niece I only get to see her for like 2-5 days a year so I let her pick the movie she enjoyed it.

​
 
04 August 2007
