Sure would. All of the flavors should be great with vanilla. I'll make a vanilla/strawberry frosting for those.

I was going to run out of Recompadrol today, but not anymore.

After a month of use, I'm a huge fan of both Recompadrol and Metabolic Powder and don't plan on running out anytime soon. They'll remain staples in my supplementation, regardless of my goals.
I highly recommend taking advantage of the current buy 2 get 1 deal being offered by EBF Inc.

That's awesome man. I actually saw that in your thread and my phone died before I could respond (battery is awful).
Yeah, rear delt hang and swings are the same thing. They can be done as a "destroyer set" on an incline bench or standing for however many sets (non-drop set) with one weight.

I waited a long time before finally trying it as well. Yeah, they're solid products. I'll be using both anytime I eat for the next 3 weeks and MP before lifting and cardio as well. AP, I keep with carb containing meals and before fasted training/cardio (which is what I've strictly been doing).

Try adding recompadrol with mp for faster training and before bed!

I actually trained fasted with Recompadrol and MP yesterday because I'm running low on AP and wanted to save it for my refeed (have more on the way though). I almost forgot about pre-bed use. My GDA stash usually isn't this big, so I tend to stick with meals/fasted training. I'll use Recompadrol and MP tonight! Thanks man!
I've luckily never had GI issues with any GDAs (and I have dealt with severe GI problems in the past). There's been some gas after a few larger meals when MP was used prior, but that's to be expected, especially with meals like I consumed yesterday.

That's too bad man. My stomach is a little of rough today, but I think it's unrelated and might be getting sick...worst possible time ever.
I hit chest and shoulders this morning and it was a short, but decent performance. My energy just hasn't been there lately and the length of the majority of my sessions has been down considerably. I have to work today and tonight (won't be home until 11pm) and it's going to be awful.

Part of 2nd set: I came up with this idea on the fly. Both the shrugs and the rows felt amazing. I used various angles by moving and positioning the bench/myself, which hit my upper/mid back very well. I’ll definitely be keeping both in my arsenal, as they felt more effective than any prone shrug/row that I’ve previously done. The rows were especially great. Pulling back against the fixed path hit my back in a way that it wasn’t accustomed to. My phone memory filled up so the video is cut short.

Frosted Vanilla Ice Cream OxyELITE Protein / Quest Apple Pie Pancakes
Invalid Link RemovedInvalid Link Removed
Pancakes
-1.5 scoops Vanilla Ice Cream OxyELITE Protein
-1 Apple Pie Quest Bar
-1/2 cup gluten free oats
-220g egg whites
-3/4 cup "So Delicious" Sugar Free Coconut Milk
-1.5 tsp baking powder
-ground cinnamon (to taste)
Frosting
-1/2 scoop Vanilla Ice Cream OxyELITE Protein
-1/8 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
Calories: 756
Protein: 95g
Carbs: 44g (29g fiber)
Fat: 18g
This was my favorite combo so far (and Apple Pie Quest Bars aren't at the top of my list). I knew they'd be amazing when I first had a taste of the batter (like the greatest thick milk shake of all-time). The pancakes literally taste like apple pie and the frosting, additional cinnamon, and some WF syrup made them unreal. I'm going to run out of OxyELITE Protein today, but will have to go buy more because the pancakes/ice cream (apple pie ice cream will be unbelievable) are saving me throughout my prep diet. Carbs have been kept between 100-140g (with a lot of fiber included) since last refeed (Thursday) and will make another small drop after my scheduled refeed on Tuesday.

Thanks brotha! The really were. Unfortunately, that'll be the end of my Quest Bar use until after the competition. It was a delicious few days though. OxyELITE Protein is getting put aside this weekend as well and I'm going to be miserable.
Thanks dude. I'm doing alright and getting started on my refeed soon, which has me feeling better already.
Sleep would be nice. I'm working a lot more than usual and it's been rough. I'll be good though. I'm actually lowering carbs, but bumping up refeeds another day this week (1 today and next one Saturday).

Tis the season. I'm going to kill a sleeve of Trader Joes Pumpkin Bagels on Saturday. They're a solid option with 250 cals, 51g carb, 8g protein, and 1g fat each. I'll most likely frost them with OEProtein and sprinkle the pumpkin pie spice on top, which will be my last taste of OxyELITE Protein for the next couple weeks.

I picked up these this morning. Love them and hadn't had one in years. 2g of fat.
I'll be having cereal next and replacing my pasta with a homemade gluten free pizza. I haven't even had a slice in at least 6 months, probably a year, and it should be amazing. It'll be large and only have 8g fat total.

My dad works at kelloggs, for Halloween employees get a load of rice crispy squares to give away, a variety of kinds. They gave him 200 last year and we had a hell of a lot of leftovers lol I'm sure this year will be the same so they will be in my winter bulking diet

That's awesome and I'm jealous
. I've loved them ever since I can remember. My parents never made or bought them either, so it was always a big treat. The variety box was very tempting this morning, but I held off due to the additional 1-1.5g of fat in each kind. I heated them up so they were extra gooey and wiped up the frosting/WF syrup on each plate.

-gluten free pizza sauce
-gluten free pizza dough
-fat free mozzarella
-Frank's Buffalo (coated chicken and put some in sauce)
This fit into my reefed great as it totaled 8g of fat, had a ton of carbs, and knocked out most of my protein target for the day. I can post the macros later if anyone is interested. It absolutely blew away my expectations and was easy to make. I killed the entire thing within 10 minutes and wish I had more. I'll definitely be making more pizza on Saturday...and for the rest of my life.

Thanks man and welcome back. I have another great pizza lined up for tomorrow. I actually just put all the details of my refeed together and it's going to be amazing (exactly 5550 cals and 1000g carbs).
I'll try to have a workout update posted tomorrow. The last couple weeks have been the busiest that I've ever experienced, which is no fun with my lack of energy from dieting.

I mixed Trader Joes Pumpkin Pie Spice with Vanilla Ice Cream OxyELITE Protein. It was fantastic. :thumbsup:
Carbs were kept to 50g today with 30g coming from fiber, so this was a real treat. Calories hit a new low as well.
I don't think I'll be able to fit any OEProtein into tomorrow's refeed, as my intake will already be slightly higher than I'd prefer (mainly due to bagel and pizza content).

Why are you cutting it out? Where are your cals daily now?
breezy11
Well-known member
I'm just tightening things up wherever I can, which doesn't leave me with many options. I could possibly sneak a scoop for straight egg white/protein pancakes at some point, but that'd be it.
Cals still vary somewhat based on training, but are usually between 2600-2900, with massive 5500 refeeds every 4 days currently (my maintenance cals are higher than most people). I kept them lower today, along with carbs, which I've been doing the day before I refeed. Carbs will be kept to 100g or below after this refeed and may drop slightly following my next refeed (what I've been doing).

That's rough, but you're doing great man. I don't think I'd be able to function without the refeeds. I'm having a hard enough time making it 4 days at this point lol.

It's the only powder that I've used since being released, but I'd cut any powder regardless. I'm going to try and get all of my nutrition from whole foods. While there are only a minimal amount of carbs in the powder, I won't have many to work with the next 2 weeks either. We'll see how it goes, I may use it sparingly.
Sounds awesome. I wanted to grab Cookie/Cocoa Swirl Butter from Trader Joes today, but the fat content was too high for my refeed. I did get Pumpkin Butter though, which has 0g fat. I'm gonna spread it on bagels (mixed with fat free cream cheese on a couple) and put it on some fat free ice cream (2 suggestions straight from the jar).
