Golden Finish.. Yeah I shower in that s#*t log. (Sponsered Log)

[tattoopierced1]

I am preparing my log for my upcoming Golden Finish log that I was graced with from Controlled Labs/RR. As of now my diet/supplementation goes as follows:

Meal 1: 2 scoops whey protein, 2 scoops WMS, 1 tbsp EVOO, 1tbsp natty PB, 2 cups skim milk

Meal 2: (1 Anabolic Pump) 1 large bagel, 2 scoops whey protein, 1 cup skim milk

Meal 3: (2 caps fish oil @ 1,000mg/cap) 1 cup rice or pasta, 6oz steak or chicken, 1tbsp EVOO

Pre Workout: (1 Pslin) 1 large bagel, 2 scoops whey protein, 1 cup skim milk

15 minutes before workout is over, I take 1 Anabolic Pump

Post Workout: (Pre Golden Finish Log) 70g gatorade powder, 2 scoops whey protein, 1 cup skim milk

Meal 4: (1 Anabolic Pump, 2 caps fish oil @ 1,000mg/cap) I either go with 1-2 cups of pasta, or potatos, 8-12oz chicken, steak, or fish

Before bed: 2 scoops Xtend

When starting the Golden Finish, I will cut the protein and gatorade out of my post workout. I may possibly add in some gatorade powder however to get some extra carbs in post workout like I am used to if this is OK with RR.

I will update my weight at the start of the log as well as post as much detail as I am allowed with my weight program without pissing my trainer off.

looking good man, I will be running the same log, thrilled to get started. The sample I tried was phenomenal and the taste made me feel like I was cheating

I will be making one minor change to my diet, I will be adding in more carbs. I recently dropped sodas from my daily "bad habits" and got a lot of carbs from sodas in the past (I still stayed very lean, 10% BF or less), but need to make up for the carbs I took out. I will most likely be adding in the carbs at Meal 3 by adding in 1 more cup of rice, Meal 4 again by adding in 1 additional cup, and possibly Meal 1 by adding in some oats or another form of carbs.

HA!! Great title. Good luck man.

Bring on the big weight!!! Excited to get this started!! *sub
Good call on the soda! :dl:
Your diet is very dialed in ...

I must have mixed my sample funny, all I remember was little yellow clumps. I was trying to sip it and I did sprints on the elliptical for my HIIT routine so I missed out on the taste. I'm looking forward to sipping my GF nice and slow pretty soon

PS Tattoo you need to eat more veggies! Or perhaps you just left them out. Have you considered picking up a Greens+ supplement like http://www.nutraplanet.com/product/n...ods-2-lbs.html

yeah I know I need to get some veggies in there.. I eat cauliflower occasionally throughout the week, but outside of that, I normally just have some fresh green beans. I do take a nice liquid multi though for vitamins I am missing.

Green beans are to me what French fries are to many people. I buy a few pounds for cheap at a chinese supermarket, wash it up and snack on them all day long. Sooo good

suprisingly that actually sounds very tasty. i am a brocolli man myself, however its exit is not the most pleasant. My wife would prefer no veggies at all as a response

Received my GF in the mail yesterday when I got home from my workout. I had already had my PWO carbs and protein so I will start this on Thursday. I do have a question for RR... I normally get 70g carbs in PWO and GF only has 20g. Would it be OK to supplement with some extra carbs in addition to the GF PWO or for the purpose of this log should I just stick to what is in GF?

[tattoopierced1]

Forgot to post up too, but I will take and post pictures tomorrow.

Glad you received it! Can't wait till you start

We want you to get the most out of the product. It has sufficient carbs, it was designed that way, but you can supplement them if you require more. Just remember: the carb source in GFH is nutrient rich and not sugary. So 20g goes a long way.

But I'm not going to nit-pick. Only thing I ask is to give us a review of the product by itself, somewhere along the way, preferably at the beginning; for taste and mixibility purposes. Then you can add in additional carbs for yourself the rest of the time.

Will do. I think what I will probably do then is do just GF for a week or so by itself and than go from there if I feel I need more carbs PWO.

Thanks.

1st day using Golden Finish. Had 3 scoops sitting in my blender bottle that I mixed with water when I was finished with my chest workout. Mixes up fine, it is somewhat creamy even though I used about 10oz of water, but washed the rest of it that was lingering in the bottle down with about 3-4oz of water. Taste was fine, no strange aftertaste which is nice and I didnt get a bloated feel from it either.

[tattoopierced1]

Picture from today. None of these pics will be flexed as I have to take the pictures myself.
