PNI arrives, Guns blazing! Prodigy: First Gladiator for the Arena! (Sponsored)

WTF happened to C-dawg?
 
Banned from what I have been reading.
 
yeah but WHY! he was a good lad...
 
Not sure of the reason. Maybe the Prodigy made him too aggro. Lol
 
I too was wondering what he could have done to get himself banned. I was following this thread and wished to know the end results.

As jamesm11 said yesterday, both he and jonrubio are also logging the same product so you can follow those logs if you are still curious about Prodigy. That's what I am going to do. The rest is beyond our control.

I was wondering since this log has already been started by Celorza, whether or not I could pick up where he left off as the one logging the Prodigy?

No I was not selected that is why I was hoping to take over this one?

3 big problems with that:

1. I am not a PNI rep and apologize if you thought I was.
2. Celorza already had the product and they aren't just going to send out another one (who knows, he may even be back in a week anyway)
3. You have 5 posts and a Red reputation, which is not going to lead companies to put their trust in you to run logs of their products.

Follow the other logs for now, make productive posts on AM and hopefully in the future opportunities will present themselves. Best of luck!

no.

and you motive for this site shouldn't be to aquire free products. Everyone on this site are here to acquire knowledge about bodybuilding. You need to boost your rep up along with posts first and eventually you will be able to log something.

Look he asked for a source. That's probably why he was banned.

I think I should have my posted reputation if the ban becomes lifted on Celorza, and I will run with the Prodigy log in this thread to help others to see how the Prodigy can work.

Now now Jon I asked for the source of science, not for a steroid. I pride myself on not running those kinds of things at such a young age :D

Now now it seems I have a lot to cover so let's start rolling with this.

Day 5 at 1/2 a scoop was on Tuesday 8/7:

Deadlift day:

Warm up:
125x5 (Romanians stretching hammies)
135x5
155x5

Working sets:
175x3
200x3
225x3+5 total of 8 reps. PR (used to be 225x5)

Video for the last set:
Invalid Link Removed

Proceeded to do Hamstring extensions at;

(110x20)x5 so total of 100 reps.

Prone hamstring curls:
(100x20)x5

Hanging leg raises
5 sets BW till failure (ranging from 18-23 reps). All reps all the way upside down touching shins with the bar as holding lets straight.

This was from 7am to around 8:10am, after getting out of work at 4:30pm came back (still cruising on good energy without crash) and did:

Front squat:
(135x10)x5
Reason for this sets was that I had a lot to vent out that day and well...I don't like to take it out on people anymore.

Wednesday was a hectic work/rest day.

Thursday 8/9 first day at a full scoop.

Bench press day.

Warmup (usually do it wider grip and practicing explosiveness with a 3/0/1 tempo)

65x5
85x5
105x5

Working sets:
115x3
135x3
155x3+6 total of 9 reps.

Shoulder assistance:
Standing OHP.
(70x10)x4
70x13

Chest assistance:
DB bench press.
(55x20)x5 I could not believe the endurance and vascularity this sets showed. I was able to complete all sets with only rest pausing or last 2.

Triceps assistance:
Tri push downs.
95x20
105x20
(115x20)x3 again enduring 3 sets at this weight was unbelievable, though admittedly I had to rest pause for 5-6 deep breaths for last 2 sets to get the last 5-6 reps.

Day 2 at 1 scoop Friday 8/10:

Welcome back Celorza. Now be a good boy and stay around for a while.

J/k....all BS aside, it's good to see you back.
 
Day 3 at 1 scoop, Saturday 8/11:

Ricky's Massive Gun program. (Yes he coaches me, gotta admit my bro has massive guns and I need more strength in my arms thus advice is followed)

Bicep 15's:
(5 half bottom reps, 5 top reps and 5 full reps)
EZ bar 2 sets at 65 lbs one with close grip and one with wide grip.

Standing French press (EZ bar close grip):
(70x12)x5

Incline dumbbell curls:
25x12
30x8
30x8
25x14

Lying DB skull crushers:
25x12
30x8
35x8 (PR)
25x14

Keep in mind this are 30s and 35 dumbells on EACH hand. Will do a video for this ones, I like the pump I get here.

Super set, cable curls and single hand tri push downs.
35x12 + 40x12
40x8 + 45x8
45x8 (PR biceps) + 50x8
35x12 + 40x14

All for each arm and little to no rest needed at all. Beta alanine at work here, endurance was amazing. The first column is biceps and the second one is triceps.

Added to the program myself:
5 sets of chin ups to failure , first was 26 reps and the rest barely made it to 20.

5 sets of body weight dips for 25 reps even if rest pausing was needed.

Went home at around 9:30am and by 6:30 I was still going with good energy levels and proceeded to go out for mild 40~ minute run to vent out some stuff...the 11-12th of this month hold a certain significance for me and well... I have to keep going.

A note on cardio for Prodigy:
I was actually wary or concerned I would get palpitations or a really high heart rate, well to my surprise this has not happened thus far. Furthermore the burn I usually get on my calves after 30 or so minutes is practically gone (not that it was unbearable) and the focus...god...the focus I get at one scoop is just amazing. To be able to just zone out in the music...to just keep moving forward and focus on the next point you want to reach again and again never minding time...that's as close as "time fast-forwarding" as you can get in this life.

And yesterday, Sunday day 4 of 1 scoop:

The scoop was much needed since I went to bed at 3:30 am after visiting certain places...and ghosts of the past. Well not knowing this a dear brother of mine decides to text me at 6:02 am (wonder howitwas and howhedidit) and woke me up...still engulfed in some pain from the previous night I proceeded to get my ass outta bed and dose 1 scoop of prodigy and go out got a run to the whole Album of "A beautiful lie" by 30 Seconds to Mars. When the last song was done I had finished running...didn't check time or distance but I would say way over an hour, having only slept some mere few hours and not taking anything else, Prodigy pulled through for me and kept me going through this cardio session.

Prodigy is still not for sale. However he send an e-mail to [email protected] to apply for a sample, if not I would not mind procuring one or him myself once it's out, that is if he really means to log it and make good use of it. I believe PNI has a winning product here, and I'm just willing to let the word out for it.

It will be hard to send samples out due to it may clump up in little baggies but I'd be more the. Happy to at least give it a try to send a few out so email me and I'll pick a few to throw up some mini reviews :)
 
Strong updates on your return. Solid work so far despite the forum vacation. ;)

Nah, I'm just messing with Chad. :-) He makes me buy most of my supps from him. lol :-) We've been doing biz for a while now. Honestly, he is a seriously stand up guy that bends over backwards to help ppl out and is a wealth of knowledge.

I have had the pleasure and luck to pick his brains and gotta admit, he is really a good vault of knowledge and kindness. Not to mention, he is first and foremost a bro, true it is a biz, but he cares about consumer satisfaction and low-price standards for his clientele. Not many can say that and he is really a nice man for that; not losing sight of who he was for whom he is now, that makes Chad Brooks the bro he is :).
 
welcome back brother
