SX- NON-BELIEVERS PLEASE READ!

alright, i'm currently 10 days out from the jr. usa's being held on may 23rd. my bodyweight is right around 270lbs. i am currently doing 1hr 5am cardio (stairclimber, eliptical, stairmill), 1pm weight training, 1 hr 7pm cardio session. my carbs since the 3 week out mark have been cycled up and down from 150gms/day to 50gms./day. needless to say, energy levels are WAY down. i haven't been using any energy/fat burner/diet pill for about 2 months. this evening, i was dragging so bad, i decided to take ONE capsule of my SX. (didn't want too, as i hate adding anything new in this close to a comp., but just had zero energy) i'm talking, could barely get off the couch to head to the gym. so, i took my 1 cap of SX about 15min. prior to heading out, thinking, at this point, it would take a miracle to have any energy. get to the gym, about 5-10 min. in to my stairclimbing, the energy comes..stepping livelier- i'm talking about the stepper where the stairs rotate beneath you, not the traditional stairclimber. this thing is usually torture. not this time, time flew by, i just got in the zone, a large mirror is in front of the stairclimbers, and it was almost surreal- NO BULLSHIT. i was just focusing in, clear headed, focused mentally, not even thinking about the time remaining. at 270lbs. 1 cap? glad i didn't go w/ 2 cause i am up at almost 1am- not cracked out- mind you, posting away on AM lol.. this post is no hype- if you haven't tried SX yet, i'm telling you, it is amazing. i feel like going back to the gym right now.. if you have any q's or doubts, pm me. i would be glad to share my exp. on SX with you..
 
taking one cap at 7pm is ..well...crazy...i take one at 6am and in fired up till 11pm...your right excelent product...only down fall is i cant stop biting my toungue(anxiety) after 2 wks...looking to drop 10 pounds...so far i dropped 6 in 2 weeks
 
i guess i got caught up responding to emails and texts i didn't post results over here. well, ended up 7th of, 13. really, i dried out way too much in the last 24-36 hours, and, despite the carbs i took in, couldn't carb up enough to fill out. it's crazy how water, carbs, sodium play such a huge factor those last hours prior to a show. timing is everything, and i fudged it. really was just trying to come in ultra-shredded, but, it back fired and i came in a bit flat. so that really sucks, but in taking away a positive from the experience, i now know what NOT to do, and that's huge when it comes down to the last couple of days..it's all trial and error. so now, taking some solid time off, gonna bulk up again and put together a game plan for upcoming comps. the outcome wasn't what i hoped for, but, still had a blast!

No shame in that. Take what you learned worked/didn't work for you and make your next show even better.
