Poops Prime Log

Damn man I looked all over my local grocery mart for coconut oil and couldnt find some, I gotta check some more places... sadly Im having to use a corn/canola blend till I find it.

Ya I def am impressed thus far.... really Im still not where I want to be with it.... Im happy with the weight gain and the strength thus far BUT am waiting for the "FEELING" everyone describes and all the time pumps. I figure if it doesnt happen for me across 40days then its just not gonna happen, but so far its living up to expectations....

tell me have you tried AP and/or Pslin and did you like em? I think this may be helping really with Prime and possibly increasing its effectiveness with its being able to load nutrients (and in turn anything bound to them, ie Prime).... might not though too...

Coconut Oil tends to be from the health food store. If all you can find is refined, you can use that at first but it won't have the other health benefits of unrefined.

I've used AP and PSlin extensively. PSlin I can feel working very well and I like using it although it makes me almost too hungry since I already process carbs well.

It is harder to say if AP works for me; even on AP i can still gain fat while bulking. I believe it has a moderate effect on me, nothing huge. AP/ Yellow Gold have been a staple of mine for over a year now though. They're usually impulse buys at sales, snagged a few at $35, didn't bite at the $25 sale though, there's something at NP coming in the future that got me to hold off :think:
 
didnt hit legs this weekend as planned as I had tons of laundry to do withthe wifey aka task master and my knee has been buggin anyhow.... will do a full body at home BW workout tomorrow as I dont hit the gym on sundays but cant have 3 down days in a row.

I purchased my coconut oil from vitamin shoppe. Actually, it was one of the highest rated brands, but it was on sale ... however, I use it for scarring and facial blemishes.

Sadly enough, I have no idea when I'll start logging PRIME. I had started to take it two days ago, but then when I moved, everything got boxed up and put every which way, so I have no idea where half of my supps are....I think someone accidentally put some in storage.
 
Yeah, Im a newly wed also, so flying around town looking for which place my supps got stashed isnt exactly her cup of tea.

Hopefully, I'll crack the case today or tomorrow while unpacking these damn room full of boxes

Im even more impressed with tonights workout now that I came back and looked at last weeks numbers then I was in the gym makin the new ones!

I knew I was comin into the WO with higher goals and also not saving bis for only 2 sets at the end... instead I wanted to pre-exhaust my bi's before hittin back so I could make sure they didnt over power the exercise and the back would take the brunt of the lifts.... weeeeeelll... heres the numbers...

Lifts:
Pull ups- 10, 8
Hammer curls- 35x20(l/r alternating)
DB curls(held in front to mimic curl bar)- 30x10
Hammer curls- 25x10
reverse grip EZ bar- 45x10
DB curls(held in front to mimic curl bar)- 20x10
Iso hammer strength front lat
pull down-55(each side)x10, 70x20(alternating left right never full extension to keep constant pressure), 85x8(simultaneous again)
Seated rows- 80x10, 100x10, 120x10
Bent over DB rows- 25x10/10(left side then right), 35x10/10
Standing rows(Curl bar lifted to chin)- 45x10, 45x10, 45x10
reg grip EZ bar-45x10


I ended up blowin some lifts away as I misremembered what it was I did the week before... I hit an extra set of pull ups all my bi pre-exhaust sets and then went to hit the ISO lat pull down thinking I started the week before with 70 lbs, so when I put 55 on I thought I was shootin low and was just gonna focus on form and my back muscles expecting it to be really tough with my arms already taking a few sets.... well 55 was a breeze. So I jumped right to 70 and did the next setof alternating reps (l/r) which usually takes it outta me... fairly easy... and for some reason I thought I hit 80 the week before (prob thinking of the ISO incline I did for chest) and decided why not another 15 and hit 85..... ALMOST GOT EM ALL WITH 8!

Then went to hit the row remembering 140 was waaay too much for the max set (failure @10)and shot it for 120 being max set, completed with ease, Bent over rows I was more conservative with BUT it was eeeeaassssyyyy, so was the standing rows and so topped it off with one more set for bis.

Damn good workout. seems like Ill be back up to my peak lifting range sooner then expected.


Side note:

Wife has been noting that Ive had an extra tude as of late... actually she said "whats crawled up your ass",lol, kinda have but nothing crazy mostly with stupid operators on the phone and other general idiots then she catches me while Im still heated...:smite:

Well, it is now becoming ostensibly apparent that Poopy is on USP Labs' payroll! As well all know, offering resounding endorsement of PRIME based off objective increases in weight and/or repetitions and/or ease of lifting invariably results from payment from USP Labs. DreamWeaver knows this, as does smn1; welcome to the company PP!

LMAO

This is too funny, Has someone now stated yor paying off your reviewers???

If so check my logs at swoleasylum.com and Chemicalsoldier.com (wait its a private board, none the less) and youll see my logs there too where there is ZERO USPL endorsement just so others can see what it does, good or bad and even at chemical soldier Im running my log inside the same thread as another fellow running prime so its easier for peeps to find feedback on this product, never met the other fellow before I started at that board and he doesnt frequent any of the 7 boards I stay on daily (so obviously totally unacquainted other then sharing a thread) and he is a seasoned AAS user (thus being on a PRIVATE invite only board called chemicalsoldier) and is having similar results.

again your dry sarcasm is something I quite enjoy Mullet.

ya thats a bit rediculous.

Id have to say the ONE PERSON who ran this and didnt respond, and this was to the beta, was Steveoph.... now even HE has still kept an open although doubting mind to the final version, I dont know where these others get off saying its crap and now saying WE that are getting results must be gettin paid off.:yawn:

I have seen several individuals claim "Ridiculous!" at any insinuation that PRIME may delivering even 1/10 of what it claimed to; this is unfortunate. The marketing serves its purpose: Period. The product, subsequently, serves its primary purpose quite well in my personal subjective opinion.

Well Ive yet to "feel" whats reported in the writeup AND what I saw being said in the beta logs as they were going down... but it is early for me still being the second week BUT the numbers dont lie, something is clearly happening more then what unassisted gains would allow. Also the weight gain and NEW increased vascularity in the forearms are welcome.

I will wait till my 4th week to say wether its 100% on with claims but so far its headed in the right direction.

I just dont think others can say jack till they give it a fair unadulterated chance.
 
Hey PP, I see you're stacking a couple products here. Hope all is going well. Now will you please get your A$$ to the peptides section!? :P CJC/GHRP are callin' yer name son....you know it!

I may pick up a supp to run w/my peps. Since I won't do slin, I'm looking into pslin and AP. Nice log...thanks for sharing bro.

I see Mullet's in here....raisin' some hell...good to see ya chief!

-Papa!-

LOL dont you worry Ive been following all the posts over there.... sadly I cant posses darts (slin pins) for about 1.5 years... the second thats over Im all over it, till then its just researching planning and drooling over everyone elses logs.
 
Your low back discomfort could be something as simple as piriformis syndrome. Could also be facet irritation. Does the leg pain go past the knee? Does flexion or extension of the trunk alleviate or exacerbate the symptoms? From what you have stated, I would say that segmental radiculopathy is unlikely.

Based on what he's described here (and what we've talked about outside this thread), a radiculopathy type injury of sciatic nerve root involovement sounds very much like a potential issue here. I am interested in why you say otherwise though.

Either way, MRI is the only way to solidly confirm or deny diagnosis with this type of injury.

it seems as though the nerve impingement has subsided, I occasionally still have a tightness in my lower right back where the pain originated but no longer have the pain/burning of obvious nerve origin extending down my leg.

Do you suppose it couldve been something less serious, like an inflamed muscle that was pinching the nerve? or possibly something stopped pinching the nerve altogether? do you suppose it could possibly return or get re-pinched during certain activities?

Absolutely. Any injury in or around a nerve root complex can cause swelling and compress nerve endings. This can give pseudo-type presentation symptoms of a more complicated issue.

I'd play it by ear here and see where rest gets you.

BTW - Vegas was PIMP!! :D

aahhh damn!!!! saw you guys had a booth! sadly with all the mishaps couldnt make it as planned... hopefully next year Ill be back on my feet financially and be able to make the trip... also hopefully WE will have a booth :D


Def gonna keep an eye out n "try" to take it easy... my back workouts dont seem to really bother it as only my seated rows really hit lower back and I think the long extension I do actually acts much like an inversion table would do and helps the spine decompress... no deads though for sure.... at least for a while.

My main worry is the work I do with all the slightly bent over work of hoeing the ground and shoveling stuff, then lifting alot and bending over, gonna have to take it easy and careful there.

Either way, MRI is the only way to solidly confirm or deny diagnosis with this type of injury.

Typically, patients with segmental radiculopathy experience symptoms that are much more severe. He would know if he had a disk protrusion. With piriformis syndrome, the piriformis muscle spasms and irritates the sciatic nerve where they meet in the buttock. Hypertonic piriformis may be from something as simple as anatomical short leg or external rotation of the limb while walking. Piriformis syndrome results in leg pain in the distribution of the sciatic nerve, below the knee.

Facet syndrome, on the other hand, results when meniscoids get trapped in the facet joint or when the facets have become irritated. Increased lumbar lordosis may cause enough chronic stress to the joint to irritate it, or it may occur during lifting activities (especially with twisting). Because of the nerves innervating the facet joint, there is referred pain down the posterior leg, but this does not go below the knee.

Correct, MRI is diagnostic for disk involvement. Plain films may show it if significant. A neurological exam is also quite helpful.

Your response is well articulated and informative, however i have to disagree that he'd surely know if a lumbar disk was protruding. Way too many structural and supportive structure injuries that can contribute to the cause of these type of symptoms/issues.

Plain films won't show much unless it's a VERY obvious spinal deformity, subluxation, or fracture. While i agree that a neurological exam is warranted to support further diagnostic evaluation, things of this nature are nothing but speculation online considering no physical assessment was or has been performed. Issues involving arthritic boney changes such as ankylosing spondylitis can cause similar issues.

To be certain, he needs a diagnostic evaluation of the affected area involved.

Workout notes:
Again not the strongest shoulder workout you may see for some but pretty well up there for me, especially in the lateral/front raises. Ive never controlled 30lb DB's that well before (dont believe in just heaving any old weight up in front of me, nothing gained IMO) especially for my left side as its a bad shoulder(snowboarding) and during all laterals and front raises I have to tighten it very hard to make sure it doesnt slip out/sprain... dont think I will increase those next week for the sake of making sure I dont injure my shoulder, Im sure I could do more with my muscles but not sure my shoulder itself will stay in place... F that up and there goes benching, and most of my back workout as well... no thank you.

Will def keep pushin the shoulder pressin and arnolds though... BTW I do my arnolds a lil different to keep alot of pressure on my delts. I only bring my elbows a lil lower then 90 and then squeeze them in front of my face, separate again and press upwards, this means I never get to a full resting position on the drop theres constant pressure on the delts and by squeezing them together in front of my face it slowly rotates from my main delts to the front then back to the main and up... pretty killer to say the least. Im sure I could do ALOT more Reps/weight if I were to drop my elbows to my sides or gut like most do and took most the pressure off them each rep.... I like the burn with my variation though.:smite:

Side notes:
Forgot to check my weight today, will just do it on thurs (tomorrow is an off day) when I go back in for chest again and the start of week 3. I will say though that my arms are looking more vascular, I noticed my bi's look a lil fuller today (DID work them out yesterday though) and my obliques are showing more and more with the small handles slowly fading, all the while Im gaining strength..... pretty good in my books... cant wait to see what the end result is.
 
Prime has him in the gym 24/7, HE CAN'T LEAVE!! lol

Poops about the back: John covered it perfectly, but coming from myself (2 completly ruptured discs at l-4 +l-5 and a bulging at l-3) your symptoms sound very similar to my symptoms). I have yet to have back surgery, and PT did nothing. Epidurals worked wonders, but its not a permanent fix. This is only assuming you have disc issues and not something else impinging the nerve or area. Like John said just take it careful and don't put yourself in situations (deadlifts lol) that have the potential to really do some damage. Everyone on here is young, we need our backs!

Definitely! Again Im hopin it was just a temporary inflamation of some sort or other impingement that was relieved other then a disc issue, dont want this to be a reoccurring thing... so def will be watching it and taking things carefully.
 
A lil note:

I thought I noticed a dude eyeballin my arms alot today while we were clearing this field of brush with flat shovels and looked at em myself realizing they look a bit fuller and the vein running across the peak is standing out more then usual... THEN right before we go home from work he walks over to me and goes "man your lookin bigger every time I see you, you on some steroids or somethin?" told him "nope not yet, will be soon though", then he kinda looked sheepish realizing I was getting bigger like this without em and just walked away, lol.

when others start taking notice and saying things is when I REALLY know its happening and not just me thinkin so...

when I got home and peeled off the shirt noticed chest is lookin thicker too BTW.... Cant wait to see what this next week brings.

Takin today off for rest then start the repeat for round 3 on thurs.
 
10-2-08

Today went GREAT, set some good goals and met almost all of them. I also was able to weigh myself:

187.5lbs!

So thats 4.5lbs in 2 weeks!!! Goes to show I AM bigger everytime my coworker sees me!!! Still got 3 more to go solo too(before I start the switch to Epi) so this is def lookin good!

Also am looking more defined and vascular, so possibly losing fat as well, obviously didnt have much bf from starting pics but still think theres some trade off happening.


Tonights workout went as planned, actually set some PR's too! (although must admit at my strongest I didnt do this exercise BUT none the less this is an all time high for this exercise). Also realized I was mistaken for a lift from last week (75 for DB incline, really 70)as I saw the DB again and realized it was sitting in the wrong spot last week (not marked on DB at all just rack), soooo I made sure to get it for real this week.
Heres how it went....

Was waaaay friggin pumped after this tonight, I always do major stretching and flexing between each set (sometimes just hang from the wide slant grips on pull up bar for 10 seconds or let the cable weights stretch me out and lean forward) and this just made the pump all the bigger.... also wifey was there tonight with me and sat there for my 100lb entire stack(s) set, needless to say her eyes got HUGE and when I dropped the pin to the bottom she was like, "your not gonna hurt yourself???" I then explain "hurt, no, BUT gotta push or you wont grow", then after she saw me smash it for 10 reps she was like "you made that look easy!" and again I tell her thats actually the most Ive ever done.... was hella swole after this W.O. pecs just hangin off and even my arms were holding a nice pump.... Must say I look WAY better now at 187.5 then I did in feb at 198 with more BF.

Back is even fairly tight (probably arched it too much during my TUT set) and my traps are standing off fairly well and lookin cut up.... cant wait to see if I have some major DOMS or not tomorrow or the next day (working out nights usually leaves me with DOMS 2 days later not next day).... I would be suprised if I didnt with how I felt it in my pecs tonight and the huge pump.

Was waaaay friggin pumped after this tonight, I always do major stretching and flexing between each set (sometimes just hang from the wide slant grips on pull up bar for 10 seconds or let the cable weights stretch me out and lean forward) and this just made the pump all the bigger.... also wifey was there tonight with me and sat there for my 100lb entire stack(s) set, needless to say her eyes got HUGE and when I dropped the pin to the bottom she was like, "your not gonna hurt yourself???" I then explain "hurt, no, BUT gotta push or you wont grow", then after she saw me smash it for 10 reps she was like "you made that look easy!" and again I tell her thats actually the most Ive ever done.... was hella swole after this W.O. pecs just hangin off and even my arms were holding a nice pump.... Must say I look WAY better now at 187.5 then I did in feb at 198 with more BF.

Back is even fairly tight (probably arched it too much during my TUT set) and my traps are standing off fairly well and lookin cut up.... cant wait to see if I have some major DOMS or not tomorrow or the next day (working out nights usually leaves me with DOMS 2 days later not next day).... I would be suprised if I didnt with how I felt it in my pecs tonight and the huge pump.


Poop USPlabs PRIME is just tribulus...must be placebo:lol:
 
Maybe its hydroponic
Aquaticus, hydroponic???? hmmmm maybe THATS the extra help Im getting, not a placebo but potcebo????

LOL

what a world it would be if you could smoke your cake and eat it too... wait they already did that with brownies... nm

On a more serious note, could you grow Tibulus aquaticus in a hydroponic fashion to speed growth cycles and increase all around potency with more easily controlled PH's and N-P-K levels?
 
Great log PP. It is really good to hear your unbiased feedback on the product. I also like knowing you have gained with the big boys (Epi) so you know what you are talking about when detailing your gains with this product. I do hate that USP/Mullet have had to put up with the negativity on this product that doesn't seem deserverd. Especially with all the shitty products that other vendors have on the market these days. I can't wait to crack my PRIME bottle on Monday.

Based on your experience should I stick with 6 pills/day every day or proceed with the 5 on/2 off? Part of my says fukk my CNS as it can rest when I am dead. LMFAO!

It is possible, but due to the long gestation cycle of Trib A., it is highly unlikely. In purchasing the raws, we were forced to purchase many pre-gestated plants, in addition to wildly collected raws. The issue with some of these herbals is quite simple: The fickleness and rarity of their distribution! Soil quality, longitude and latitude, as well as native topography greatly shape the quality of the glycoside content therein. Altering the growth conditions would necessarily alter the conditions of the product!

It is for this exact reason we own and gestate our own raws, in their native soil.

Yes but you can make everything better in hydro, trust me!
 
Just pay attention to those soils..ie they may be exhausted of their key nutrients over the years.

Difficult to hydroponically gestate anything when the gestation period is several years, though! Quick crops are easy and highly beneficial in this respect; longer crops, unfortunately, do not leave room for expansion and so forth.

well I think that 5 on 2 off is cool, If I were to take any off it would only be one day..... BUT I train hard (usually) and rest correctly so my CNS shouldnt be shot, the only way youll do that is if you are training like every day just cause you feel like you can (which not being sore today seems like I can train) BUT you gotta remember you GROW on your off days and while resting/sleeping and I personally want to take advantage of Prime during these recovery days as well, thus 7 days a week.

If I were you since you only have one bottle for this I would run the 5 on 2 off to maximize the duration of the prime being ran and make sure your two days off are back to back.

that makes sense.... well hopefully you guys can get enough to be growin out there in proper conditions that you can continue to provide this awesome product.

You said wildly collected? is it possible to go and transplant many wild plants that are younger in order to increase future yeilds without having to wait an entire growth cycle? should pay a bunch of locals to go find these n bring em in.....

Still floating along the same lines of hydro, can cuttings and clones be made of these more mature plants to once again increase total crop number without having to wait an entire growth cycle?

what do these plants even look like? are they a fairly leafy plant with multiple stalks/branches like canibus or are they more like a spinach or tobacco where its mostly leaf of a center stalk?
