Don's AN Drive Log

[donny]

*Was going to post pics of the AN logo and the Drive bottle but says I need to have 20 or more post to post URLs.

Stats:

Sex : Male
Weight : 190lbs
Height : 6'3
Body Fat % : 13%

Goals : Gain LBM, would like to gain aboout 10-15lbs and drop body fat to around 10%. I bodybuild but also do a lot of paintball on the weekends, so tons of cardio then, so I would like to not only gain some LBM and lose some fat, but do gain some strength and add some more speed to my run times. Been a lurker for a while, don't really post on the boards so any comments are appreciated.

AN says "2 weeks is enough time for you to see improvements in many if not ALL of these fields" So my log will be 2 weeks long to see if their claim holds up. Each update will include (out of 5, 0 being no effect, 5 being great effect):

• Strength:
• Bodyweight/Body Comp:
• Pumps/Vascularity:
• Endurance:
• Aggression:
• Focus:
• Libido:
• Muscle Density/Hardening:
• Overall Energy:
• Personal Commentary

Day 1

Shoulders

- 175lbs 7 / 7 / 5

Military Press
- 185lbs 7 / 6 / 6

Behind Neck Press
- 155lbs 5 / 4 / 4

Forward Lean DB Raises
- 40lbs 5 / 5 / 5

- Felt good during the workout, nothing out of the ordinary. Popped 2 pills before breakfast and 2 before my workout. MY diet right now consists of A LOT of whole wheat bread, peanut butter, chicken, and whey protein. Im always on the go with college and my job, so I eat things that are fast and easy to get down. I also supplement with vitamins / minerals, EFA's and creatine. Im going to leave the rating system out of todays update since its just the first day.

Day 2

Off Day

- Today is an off day for me. Just been resting up getting my food in. Took my am dose of 2 drive caps before breakfast, and plan to take the other 2 before dinner. Felt a little 'warm' sensation after my morning dose, kinda like warm / flush / vasodilation kinda thing going on. Nothing super pronounced but I did notice it. AN says 14 days is long enough to get the benefits from drive so im hoping its starting to kick in :afro:

Day 3

Chest

Wide Grip Bench Press
- 225lbs 6 / 5 / 5

Isolateral Press
- 225lbs 8 / 8 / 7

Hammer Fly
- 55lbs 8 / 6 / 6

Dips
- 90lbs 5 / 45lbs 5

- Felt a bit tired all day, woke up with a small headache. Took my drive, 2 caps before breakfast and 2 pre-workout. Felt good during the workout, felt really strong even though I had been tired all day, so that was good. Been feeling a 'warming' sensation after my morning dose especially, hopefully thats it burning some fat off. Felt really good during the workout considering how tired I was earlier, weights felt lighter than the previous week, so I will probably up them next week.

Day 4

Back

Medium grip front pull downs

Rows
- 180lbs 10 Reps (MPS)

DB Row
- 120lbs 8 / 8 / 6

Straight arm pulldown

- Took my 2 caps of drive pre - breakfast, still feeling the 'warming' effect all over my body, and after I eat I feel more 'full' in the muscles, and more vascular. Took another 2 pre - workout and felt more 'peppy' I guess you could say during the workout, felt really good during the workout. Arms and back felt super dense, much moreso than usual. I think the Drive is kicking in full time now. Haven't really noticed a pickup in libido really, but all seems to be going good in the muscle department :thumbsup:

- Well I forgot to take my Drive in the morning before breakfast because I was running late, so I took 2 pre-workout and 2 when I got back home. I usually workout late so I usually eat my post-workout meal and go to bed. Well... going to bed was hard because I felt so damn stimmed up! I layed and layed in bed and couldn't fall asleep for hours, and normally I fall asleep quick. So, lesson learned is don't take Drive before bed, lol. Other than that felt great during the workout, felt so into it, it was great.

Went through the workout and overall I felt it was an average workout, had a lot of my mind all day so I really wasn't all there.
