Team NLA Performance Training Log

[msrider]

Hello AM Family,

I am excited to Welcome the NLA Performance Team, "Justin, Kevin, Jon, and myself MSRIDER" to the AM.

As a lot of you already know myself, and a lot of you have helped me since my short time here reach weightlifting goals, using the proper suppliments, training, diet, and most importantly ENCOURAGEMENT!

With that being said we will all be logging our Training Log, Diet, Supplimentation, and Encouraging each other to as Jon like's to say "SFW" Smashing F#@king Weights.

Again this Team would not be Possible with out Justin and Kevin, they are the creators of NLA Performance suppliments. So a Big shout out to those two guys for what they've accomplished and Thanks for letting me be a part of the NLA team.
Also wanna give a shout to Jon, He is a Champion Powerlifter and has many accomplishments. He also represents the NLA Performance name outside of the AM at every meet he goes too. Thanks Jon!

Ok let's get too work. We will be starting logging everything Mondat but I just wanted to get this up and running ahead of time, for the Team to introduce themselves, there Bio, etc....

Chest and Arms are on the table for today, followed by one serving of RECOVER-D, then 4 miles of dry sand running on the beach, finished with a pull-up, dip, ab, bodyweight exercise circuit before I put down a pound of grass-feed lean beef from whole foods!

[NLAFounder]

Hell yeah! We want those pics up Bro. And let's hear a little about yourself aswell Brotha. I will upload mine in a bit.

A little bit about myself:

I was a Southern California section champion in football, wrestling, and track & Field in high school. I accepted a scholarship to the University of Southern California to Pole Vault for the Men's Track and Field team. I am a 4 year letter winner at USC.

I coached Track and Field immediately after graduation from USC while myself and my partner Kevin were launching NLA Performance.

I have extensive knowledge of speed and agility training, plyometrics, and olympic lifting from my USC track experience and coaching.

I trained powerlifting under World Bench Press Record Holder Scot Mendelson for 6 months so I am very knowledgable about that.

My goal for NLA Performance is simple. To grow NLA Performance into the premier supplement company worldwide that is trusted and sworn by all people who try our amazing products. My physical goals is to always continue to break personal best lifts, get stronger day after day, all while maintaining 8-12% body fat (12% being holiday season, 8% being summer time baby!)

Message me with any questions.

Thanks,
Justin M.

Here we Go!

I am a New Rep for NLA Performance. Love Repping and helping others reach there weightlifting goals. I am Married and have 2 awesome boys and a wonderful baby girl. I've just been lifting for almost 2 years because I had set backs from my younger days of abusing to many drugs, and never realy learned how to live life till my wife gave Birth to my Oldest Boy. He's almost 8, so that means I've been clean for 8 years off of meth. Never seen it since and if I did somebodies getting an ass kicken. I'm Serious! My life evolves around my family and my childrean and you guys who support and encourage me. My wife since I've been realy gung ho about my health has changed her ways and for the last 5 months she's shed a little over 50 lbs of baby fat and looking bettter than ever. Fitness, weight training, and nutrition has opened new doors for us and alows us to be very active in our kids lives. I coach my kids Baseball, Football, and Basketball Teams. Love it! Anyways thanks for joining and helping me create a better life for myself and my family.

Nutrition: Basicaly I am just trying to bulk up and keep pretty lean too. I eat everything at the moment. Just making sure I take in a lot of protein and lots of carbs. If I loose my abs I'm ok for now I'm bulking.

Workout: I'm going to be going to a 4 day split starting next week. My buddie has the workout routine and I will have it up for you guys by then. Its something he picked up on a magazine where all the entries did the routine too see who could loose the most bf and increase the most strength. The winner got 10,000 bucks. So it apparently works. I won't do cardio due to my metabolism, if I run just a little I loose weight and strength.

Sorry guys my phone app says the application to upload my photo's has crashed. Will figure it out later

Also will be taking the Ultimate Stack throughout this Log:
T-Blast- 6 caps pwo and off days will dose 3am and 3 afternoon
Supp-D- 2 scoops pwo
Swoll-N- 3 caps pwo and none on off days
Recover-D- 2 scoops after everyworkout

Multi-V 2 pills
Protein Gainer- 1 serving a day
Fish oil-3 caps daily till I run out lol till after christmas haha

Nice workout Boss man! You have the ultimate job my friend. Selling your own products and working your ass off in the Gym, oh and you get to go run on the beach. I've never even been to a beach, I'm Jeolous!

 

[msrider]

Ok fellas, I have bad news on my workout today. I fu@ked up my back even worse. Thank goodness the wifey has pain pills she don't like taking. I'm getting stupid! Anyways I'm not gunna do Squat,Deads,leg press, or goodmornings for a bit.Pissed Off! Oh well I will just jave to hit the arms a bit more.

Here's what little workout I did:

Leg exstentions: (warm up)
130x20
150x20
210x15

BB squats:
225x10
315x8
405x6
495x1 ( this is where my workout ended, my lower back pretty much went num with sharp pains, and stupid me went ahead and finish the rep instead of setting it on the safety pins)

I just went to the charopractor yesturday. And for some reason I thought it wouldn't get worse, boy was I wrong. Lesson learned.

Here is gunna be my new workout starting Monday.

Chest/triceps

Incline Bench Press 6 sets 6,6,6,10,12,12
Bench Press 6 sets 6,6,6,10,12,12
Decline Fly 4 sets 12,12,12,12

Bench Dip 5 sets 6,6,10,12,12
Close Grip Bench Press 5 sets 6,6,10,12,12
Lying Triceps Exstention 5 sets 6,6,10,12,12

I start heavy and as I increase the reps I lower the weight. A buddy of mine saw this workout in a Magazine contest where the contestants had to do this workout and who ever lost the most bf and gained the most strength won $10,000 bucks. He said it worked and the contestants got ripped. Its actualy a 3 month workout routine, each month it changes.

I will finish the rest of the workouts tomorrow and if anyone is interested, your more than welcome to use the routine.

 

[mattrag]

No but I will review the Supp-D once using it. I've already commented on the Swoll-N sample I received.

Will be looking forward to that review man!

Glad your here bro!

Hi! :wave2:

 

[msrider]

Here's a favorite of mine. Chicken Parmisan!

Put butter in a skillet and cooked garlic pieces stir that up and put in your boneless chicken tenders in just too soak it in the butter garlic.

In another pan you have your crushed up caeser crutons very finaly crushed at that and parmisan cheese sprinkled in it and mixed.

After you soak the chicken in your butter garlic, dip it in your cruton mixture covering all the chicken. And place them on a cooking sheet.

And bake at 400 degrees for aproxametely 30 minutes. A great tasting baked chicken the whole family will crave. Lol!

Just thought I would share!

 

[msrider]

Just received my ultimate stack just before my new workout. Can't wait to tear the gym up today. Hell Yeah! Its ON!

 

[msrider]

Today I dosed 6 T-blast, 3 swoll-n, and 2 scoops of Supp-d pwo 30 minutes before killing some Chest and tri's. Have to Say the Supp-D taste was pretty good. Like Jon said, reminded me of a sweetteart with a little more tart.

Had some realy good pumps as usual from the Swoll-N and veins are looking sicker by the day. I'm still nursing a severe pain in my back that's realy limiting my mobility, realy on all excercises that require me to be in a sitting possition. Sucks but I exspect to bounce back quickly cause no more squats, deads, leg press, or good mornings till I'm 100%.

I originaly posted what my workouts will look like but do to some mobility and pain issues I can't do exactly like the workout calls for.

Flat Bench:
275x6x2,245x10, 225x12x2
5 sets in all

Incline DB press:
80x8x3
Normaly would do more but its causing stress at my waist so don't wanna push it.

Incline Db flies:
60x12x4 sets

Bench Dips:
Bwx25x2 sets, bwx20x2 sets

Bench db exstentiontions:
20x10x4 sets

V grip Cables:
12 platesx10x4 sets
Wanted to do close grip bench but some kids were taking too long, grrr!

Overall felt great. I loved the Supp-d and swoll-n combo. Within 10 minutes of taking Supp-d I got the Tingles and got a real nice steady stream of energy. Me like a lot!

After my workout crushed 2 scoops of recover-d in water. Will tell everyone that this stuff is great with milk but one of the big plusses that come with this protein is its delitious also with just water, can't say that about most proteins. If you are like me and have huge goals to achieve in the weightroom, NLA is truly what you wanna take to get you there.

 

[MrKleen73]

Sucks about the injury as you know I tweaked my shoulder. Oh well it is what it is... Hopfully not too bad but if it doesn't start to get better quickly I will just do an arms and legs push for size.

Such a terrible workout... I mean you ONLY benched 335 lol

 

[thebigt]

here's a tip i learned from an old seal master chief stationed on my ship....if you want to strengthen chest 1st do arm exercises to fatigue the muscles in the arms, then when you do chest exercises your chest will have to do more of the work.

Guess its the Nature of the Beast! I've always been an extremist at everything I've done, but think its time to slow it down a bit till I get this under control. Also Kleen, what exactly do you mean by doing arms and legs push? Meaning throw out all the major lifts, such as Squats, Deads, leg press and such areas that effect my lower back. Cause I'm sure I can still push myself and build muscle working around those lifts. Atleast for a bit

Hope ur shoulder gets better brotha! Are you taking a Joint suppliment? Could be a lot of imflamation in there.

Guess its the Nature of the Beast! I've always been an extremist at everything I've done, but think its time to slow it down a bit till I get this under control. Also Kleen, what exactly do you mean by doing arms and legs push? Meaning throw out all the major lifts, such as Squats, Deads, leg press and such areas that effect my lower back. Cause I'm sure I can still push myself and build muscle working around those lifts. Atleast for a bit

Hope ur shoulder gets better brotha! Are you taking a Joint suppliment? Could be a lot of imflamation in there.

I will take that workout any day of the week Brotha. But then again, It pisses me off when I can't push myself like I know I can.

That's why I wnt to working out with my wife, cause dudes were always backing out. Don't let this Bump in the road slow the rest of ur workouts down. You got this Jon! Atleast your feeding those muscles

here's a tip i learned from an old seal master chief stationed on my ship....if you want to strengthen chest 1st do arm exercises to fatigue the muscles in the arms, then when you do chest exercises your chest will have to do more of the work.

Umm that's kind of the opposite of pre exhaust. U sure you don't mean do an isolation chest exercise first? Done that way your chest should fail before your tris as opposed to the other way around.

lol...it IS pre exhaust, only you pre exhuast your arms, forcing chest to work harder. you aren't going to be able to put up as much weight, but you are hitting the chest more specifically. i just use this as a change up, trust me you can feel it!!!

Hmm ok I really don't see how that would work since my arms always give out first but if it works for you keep doing it.
