You can use the RPM for solely Pre-WO if you would like.

I'll stick with the mix. I'm not the biggest fan of stimulants preworkout, b/c I use minimal rest time between sets. The more amped I am, the harder it is to keep the intensity up throughout my workouts. I know some would say the opposite, but I've used RPM before. Three-four capsules was too much on certain days, and I burned out too quickly.

*I took three capsules of Lipotrophin PM last night and slept like a baby. I felt like I had taken about four capsules of the old powerfull when I woke up though(groggy). Can I get a PM from AN with a ballpark estimate of how much mucuna pruriens is in it?
Anyhow, here's the day's workout-

Chest/Back

Chest
Incline DB Flies-40lbs 12/3
Incline DB Press-85lbs 12/3
Pec-Deck Flies-180lbs/12, 190lbs/10, 200lbs/8

Back
15/3 chin-ups
Bent Over Rows(underhand)-135lbs/12/3
Bent Over Rows(overhand)-135lbs12/3
Reverse Grip Cable Pulldowns-150lbs/12, 165lbs/10, 180lbs/8

*I normally do DL's when I do back, but I omitted them today, b/c I did chest as well. Nothing significant to note today. I suffered from the "yawns" a good bit throughout the day. I'll be glad when the 5 day mark is up, so I can split the dosages of Drive and RPM a bit better. I'll post pictures later this week.

I take 3 caps of Lipo-PM and I am out like a baby. Most of the time I wake up feeling great, once in a while I wake up groggy, but it could just be from the way I was sleeping.

Its effects aren't bad. I just wasn't expecting it to be as potent as old Powerfull. Especially, for such a cheap cost. This is a very underrated product IMO.

Skull Crushers-85lbs/12, 105lbs/10, 115lbs/9

Standing Cable (Straight Bar) Curls-130lbs/12, 140lbs/10, 150lbs/10

*Strength and endurance are actually pretty good already. Seems like its too soon to make any real calls on this, but I'm kind of impressed. This workout took 45 minutes to complete and I felt really good throughout. I did not do any preworkout dosing. This workout occurred approximately 4 hours after the initial waking dosage of Drive/RPM. Neovar was dosed about an hour and a half preworkout. Tomorrow is the last day of the minimal Drive/RPM dosing(2 caps of each daily). Things should get more fun from here on out.

Day-6 Big Boy Dosages Begin

Shoulders
Seated BB Military Presses- 185lbs/12, 205lbs/8, 225lbs/6
Standing Straight Arm/Bar Cable Pulldowns-90lbs/12/3
Cable Lateral Raises-30lbs/8/3
Arnold Presses-30lbs/8/3

*I decided to wait and take my RPM doses in the evening (one hour preworkout) and used my Drive Doses upon waking. I won't be doing this again, b/c the stims were a bit too much. I felt fatigued pretty early into the workout this evening (worked out after work). I think I'll be dosing 2 capsules of Drive with 2 capsules of RPM instead(for the remainder of the log). The over stimulation was the result of caffeine intake throughout the day. I know some would merely suggest that I just cut back on the caffeine, but I work at odd hours and some days I need a "pick me up" more than others.

Machine Pec-Deck Fly-180lbs/10, 190lbs/8, 200lbs/6

DB Calf Raises-100lbs/15/3
Leg Press-270lbs/8, 360lbs/6, 450lbs/4

* I dosed this at 2 capsules(each)of Drive/RPM, once upon waking at 6:30am and once again at 12:00pm preworkout(total of 4 capsules each). I had an excellent workout today and I felt very strong and focused. Workout was not as I had initially intended it to be. I can't complain, but I'm going to likely pay for it tomorrow morning(soreness).

**Side Note- noticed a large increase in semenal fluid yesterday evening, compared to when I began a week ago:run: .

*I tried reverse dosing of RPM and Drive today. I took four capsules of RPM upon waking and then four capsules of Drive preworkout. I liked the combo, but I was dragging a bit during my workout which was after work. I think 2 of each is something I won't be straying from as far as dosing is concerned. BTW, semenal volume is definitely up. I am also feeling pretty good at all times of the day, albeit sore;) . Anyways, my sleep has been excellent and very restful with the dosage three at capsules of Liprotrophin at bedtime.

*I've been slacking on my log as of late..........I've been working and spending time with my girlfriend more than being online, so its excusible IMO. Anyhow, I've been feeling more dehydrated lately, so I've had to increase my water intake. I normally consume around a gallon a day and so it looks like its at a gallon and a half lately:eek: . Strength and endurance are still good. Sleep is good. Feeling a bit irregular as far as the bowel movements go, so I'll begin increasing my fiber intake to compansate. Libido is up, as well as semenal fluid volume.

There are some components in Drive and RPM that will increase endogenous test and spermatogenesis.......higher cAMP levels will take care of this as well :)

Anyhow, workouts have been okay, considering that the rest of my life has been fairly busy. Strength increases are slight, but endurance is definitely up. Sleep has been consistantly good.

You didn't read further along:study: . I upped the dosage to 4 caps of Drive every day after day 5 along with 4 of RPM. Basically, I'm dosing at 2/2 twice a day.

Thanks for following, I'm sure you'll be happy at that dosage. Personally, I've found me sweet spot with four of RPM and four of Drive every day.

I haven't posted a workout in a couple of days, but I've been in the gym. It was a busy week and weekend for me. Anyhow, I noticed some diarrhea when dosing 4 caps of Drive by itself, so I've been keeping it at 2 with 2 of RPM twice a day. Everything is on track and I'm noticing a good bit of thermogenesis going on at night and throughout the day. I'll post my current numbers later tonight.

*I put a decent sized avulsion on a toe the other day, so I've been incapacitated as far as lifting goes. Today was my first day back in the gym for about 3 days. I only have around four days worth of Drive, so I will end my log around next Thursday. Anyhow, I've dropped down the dosage, but I have still been experiencing some mild stomach discomfort and gas. This is noteworthy, b/c it started two weeks ago and has remained ever since:confused: .

*Last day of cycle as initially laid out. I will continue the Neovar and Lipotrophin PM, but I'm going to shelve the remaining RPM. Overall, I have been impressed by the positive effects of the products, but the stomach discomfort from the Forskolin has been a big let down. I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow to see if there were any underlying medical issues for my problems. I did manage to score a PR, so it hasn't been a complete loss.

Final Thoughts-

Drive- Product delivers as claimed, but it caused me some serious stomach discomfort towards the end of the cycle. I attempted to adjust dosages throughout the cycle, but I never quite found a spot I was comfortable with. Initial reports of an increased libido leveled off after two weeks, although ejaculatory volume remained high. Strength and endurance remained high throughout the last month.

RPM-I have used this product(2 other bottles)before in the past, but was never really satisfied with the results. It seemed as if other users were getting gains that I wasn't, so I dismissed it entirely until this cycle. Overall, I think it helped to balance out the dosaging of Drive. If I were to ever use these products again(will see after Friday), I'd likely use it again in this manner. I definitely liked it better stacked with Drive than by itself.

Neovar-Not a whole lot to say, except that this is a solid, capsulated, creatine product(although I like powders more). It does what its supposed to do and at a reasonable cost.

Lipotrophin PM- This product has to be a diamond in the ruff as far as I'm concerned. It delivered everything it was supposed to and more. I was able to fall asleep quicker, and sleep much deeper, as a result of using Lipotrophin PM. For the going price of well under $20 for around 40 days, it will become a staple in my supplement usage for now on.
