3AD- with Ultra-11 eventually

It is a fair point.

A typical workout right now if you look at RP as 2 sets

is about 20-24 with about 6 per muscle group each workout.

Considering switching to U-L-Total Split .

Maybe 4-5 work sets per muscle group on the U/L and 2-3 on the total

Have been extremely lethargic the past few days as well. Maybe from lack of 3AD or is it the addition of the SLU. Haven't loved how I've felt on it for the few short days I've been on it.
 
I listened to a podcast today where they touched on SLU. Apparently it really draws out a lot of your electrolytes, so you really need to keep on top of replenishing or you’re going to feel like sh1t.

Too little info out on SLU atm and it’s too expensive to just blindly buy for me atm. I guess we will see a lot of anecdotal reviews in a few months time on this forum to see if it really works
 
Yes, I think knowing my schedule and timeline I just jumped the gun trying to get lean for vacation. Last time I went to the beach I got extremely lean and I was basically supplement free. This time around an extra kid and some injury stuff made it more difficult. I may run it for the first bottle and hold off on the second. We'll see as far as results go. A little bit more skeptical now that I've had time to reflect on it.

I'll be cutting down on my supplements in general as I haven't found a TON of bang for the buck. It's been good that I've been able to eliminate a lot of stuff that I gave a very generous run but also identified a couple that could be worthwhile to run again.
 
I can vouch for M-Test which I take 365 days a year. It’s great for my hormones and blood work and very affordable.
Anything past that is a luxury, but I’ve done 2 runs of formeron and both have been fantastic. Worth doing if you haven’t done it before
 
Those are two I definitely agree with. That's why I'm torn on the SLU ...I used a few bottles of incinderine and saw absolutely nothing. Formeron was noticeable for sure. I'll be looking back into that post surgery for sure. Outside of some of the health stuff, i've found that the rest are just that, luxuries, that may make a slight difference.

Also, just wanted to say I appreciate your help and following along in this thread

Seeing as you enjoy dabbling in prohormones… I did a run at the beginning of the year, Halodrol (brawn). Stacked it with TD 4DHEA. Gained about 13lbs, lost some fat and literally 0 side effects. If there was any suppression it was negligible. Very hair safe.

Just some food for thought
 
Got 3 AD last night and started back up this morning.

Really surprised that I'm still looking puffy and feeling squishy. I had noticed a solid recomp effect last week or slightly before as noted in this log. Feeling the opposite this week.

I'm wondering if it could be the Slu. I have been taking 2 scoops of Rule Lytes with 2g Agmatine 6 g Citrulline and 1 serving of Mag Cre Chel daily as well.

My plan for the week is to drop Incline Barbell. Drop Volume. Add an extra pump of Ultra 11 on Wed to bring it to 5 and run that for the next 4 weeks. I will be out of Prime and Basis and will be just letting them go.

Unfortunately we have 4 parties on the books this week including a big birthday party my wife's family throws for me. We also have travel next weekend I will be mostly good but I know I won't be 100% to a PSMF or liek that but I should be able to keep carbs 50-100ish most days.

After the 6th outside of one difficult day I should have a very clear window to be super strict before vacation

Yesterday's training (working around shoulder)


Incline DB Press-30 degrees -working around pec stifness/pain. - 25x 20, 40x 12, 50, x10 , 60x 12(5 RIR0 60 x 15 2-3RIR) 75 x 11 (0 RIR) S/S each set with 20-25 TRX rows just focusing on scap positioning

I've been doing more goblet squat with heavy dumbbells. Definitely takes a lot of pressure off the lower back and spine.

Agreed. I was an early Kettlebell instructor...round 2007 . Got into them post powerlifting days after I saw louie simmons recommend them. I always used KB's and they never felt great heavy. Dumbbells are a game changer!
 
Yesterday

Switched things up a bit

Circuit of

Landmine Press 3x 10 @55lbs 12@50 12 @45
Landmine Lateral Lunge 3 x 12 @ 55lbs 10 @ 75lbs 12@55lbs
Weighted Dead bug with 10lb MB 3 x 12 ea
Seated Cable row with wide ish grip 3 x 12@ 150 12@170 10@ 170

Second Block

Weighted Pushup 35lbs 31x1- 3x12,10,10
Belt Squat RDl 32xx 3x 12 180lbs
Side Plank Row 3 x 20@ 50lbs 20@ 60lbs 15 @ 70lbs

Third Block

Alternating cable reaches (kind of like a flye/press/punch combo mostly to free up upper back and get a little bit of chest 2x 15-20 @ 60lbs . Just going by feel here. Followed up with a couple reps of flyes. Felt mostly good when doing them but stiffened up after so I'll prob just drop flyes from that angle for now or go to iso holds

Leg curl -45lbs 2x15

Bench chin up 2 x6 slow and controlled. Just testing out exercises . These were ok but a bit wonky. will sub next time

Reverse crunch holds 2 x 12-15 breaths

I'm very type A so the switch is tough. I know its necessary for the shoulder. I'm going to start adding in more movement based stuff like crawls, carries, cardio and arm work from specific positions to help free up the shoulder so hopefully that will fill in some of the gaps of things I took out and set up for longer term success.

Bumping up to 5 pumps Ultra 11 today. Prime ran out today, Basis running out today as well (tempted to pick up BMP as a replacement...haha I did say I'm type A).

Just an update of what it currently looks like . 3 strength days per week. 2-3days with sled and maybe bike/sledgehammer work (depends on shoulder) . Sled is usually 5-15 min of continuous push/drag. 30-60 min of walks per day.

Current supplements
Morning . PEA Relief, Elite Curcumin, Cissus. Polygala, Sabroxy, Tyrosine. 2 caps DCP. 2 Basis. 1 Urolithin B. 1. 1 GlucoV 1 tab SLU

Post shower - Ultra 11x5 and 3ADx3
Lots of coffee lol.

Pre training. 6 Prime. 3 ATP Elite . 2 Amento 1 Urolithin B.
Drink - MCC, 2g Agmatine, 6gCitrulline 2 scoops Rule 1 Lytes.

Afternoon 2 DCP. 2 Lean Edge 500mg Tyrosine

1 tab SLU late afternoon

Pre Dinner (been doing OMAD) . 2 Caps DCP 3 Caps Defuse (recently) 2 Caps slintensity

1lb of ground turkey at 94% or ground beef at 92% or 1-1.5lbs chicken breast.

1- 1/2 Cup greek yogurt, splenda , handful of rasperries, 1/4 C high protein granola

That's usually 4- 5 days per week.

After dinner. 1 Cap Uro B, 2 caps Jarrow Broccomax, 1 Cap Alpha One, 2 Caps DCP. 3 Prime. ZMA

I had taken M-Test for about a year. The basis and prime will be done like I said. Will probably add MTest back in after this run
 
How are you feeling now you’re back on 3AD?

I’ve been on M-Test for 18 months straight now, how did you feel when you dropped it?
 
I feel like energy is up a bit now that 3AD is back. Not quite as sluggish as I was for the few days.

Honestly, not too different without M-Test maybe a slight drop in libido . Will be interesting to see if anything changes when I add it back in.

That sounds like a good birthday to me!

30 min walk in plus a lot of movement at work today.

I will say I haven't noticed a ton of difference in body comp. I'd say slight changes. But I'm honestly not sure if its super different beyond what I'd expect with the diet and cardio I've been doing on top of training.

Today will be the completion of 8 weeks on 3AD with 2 days off while I waited for additional bottles to ship.
I'm 5 weeks into Ultra 11. This is the middle of week 2 on 5 pumps per day.
This is also week 3 of SLU.

Additional supps- Urolithin B, Mag Cre Chelate, agmatine 2g and citrulline 9g. Amentoflavone x 2 Electrolytes. Glucovantage x2 per day DCP 3x per day, Defuse before nightly meal. Lean Edge 2x 3x day



90 % of the week is OMAD 1g protein per lb of bw. 2 servings veggies. Carbs Fluctuate between 25-75g during week. One day of 2-350 per week.

Cardio at 30 min per day plus an additional walk.

I'm not sure if I should have started the Ultra 11 at 5 pumps sooner. But honestly, I have not noticed much of a difference. I'm a little surprised. Over the past 8 weeks. I'm down around 6lbs. This go round has been tougher because of life. But I would say that's on par with a normal 8 week focus on leaning out without getting too aggressive. This has been more aggressive with the above added products so I think I'm going to chalk this up as a miss for me. Not thrilled with the condition I'll be in for vacation. Theres still two and half weeks to go so I'll ride it out. But I just wanted to give an overview of where I'm at so far with out having to read through a workout.

I need to start doing this everyday. I typically will hit 20-30 minutes cardio 3 times a week and try to walk ~ 20 minutes every morning.

Yesterday hit 10 minutes of sled push. Assault Bike Tabata and 10 minutes of hand over hand sled pulls a little heavier than the other day. 20 minutes of walk after.

3 different parties yesterday. Stuck to mostly chicken, salad and green beans. 1 party cut steak and cheese (tiny) and 1 light beer.

I think I'm going to take today off fully and eat relaxed. Just a little burnt out.

I will re-group for the next week/two weeks. I've accepted I'll just be showing up on vacation well outside my best.

I'm glad others have had success with these products. I'm currently at 8weeks going on week 9 of 3AD and week 5 going on 6 of Ultra 11. It's been the last two weeks at the full 5 pumps. I just have not . I would be ok with the lack of additional bodyfat loss if I saw huge increases in muscle hardness or a muscular look but they're just not there really .

Considering dropping the 3AD this week. Possibly adding in some epiandro orally to give the skin a break and try to increase definition. Not sure.

I used Ultra hard for a bit. last year but stopped due to increased hair shed after two weeks. I did see a very noticeable leaning during week 1 though. May try that for week of vacation.

Will have to give this some thought this week. May consider dropping both? I keep hoping that maybe the 11-KT at 5 pumps may just take until week 3 or 4 to see a dramatic shift but probably wishful thinking on my part.

Considering all of these with the SLU ( not to mention all of the SNS/CEL/Evomuse stuff) a pretty expensive run. Live and learn I suppose ( for me personally that is -ymmv)

Thanks for the updates. My experience thus far was that 3AD kicks in earlier for me than the 11kt products and that the various 11kt topicals I've used were kind of an icing on the cake, just giving me that little bit more. I used to in the past just go nuts with running the kitchen sink and then realized it made it tough to gauge what was doing the work. Sorry to hear it's not going as planned for ya.
 
Thank you . I felt gret my first two weeks wit 3 AD but i never felt like the results compounded. 11KT i'm not sure . We shall see. I'm not trying to discourage companies or ppl from trying things. Between 3ad/11KT and SLu besides anything else though it was an expensive cycle. I'm just being as authentic as I can be here

Honest feedback is appreciated, thank you! I can see where that would be an expensive cycle, I get it. Especially if you're not seeing the results you thought you'd get. I did love 3AD first time I ran it, still really like it this time, the transdermal is definitely stronger. 11kt has never done much for me, but I'm also not dosing it high, so partly my fault. My main goal with my run was a stack that was reasonably priced and not overly toxic ( bought everything on sale and the PCT will be minimal) so I feel like on that end mission accomplished. I also knew that it wouldn't be a monstrous gains stack but something slow and steady while being hopefully more maintainable. Throw in that I'm also eating at maintenance or below so I can recomp, so any benefits I get will be a huge plus.

Good luck for the rest of your run!

That was good enough considering the fast. Then a 20 minute dog walk in the very hot outdoors. May try to hit a treadmill sesh after work before breaking the fast.
 
Hit that treadmill session yesterday for 2 miles.

Today was Sled Sprints 10:20 x8 with heavy-ish sled
Heavy hand over hand sled pulls x 10 min
Bike sprint 4x 30s
KB rock carryx 10 min
5 min of crawls

Dog walk then cut the grass...maybe treadmill again later.

Was considering fasting tonight but will prob hit 1 meal.

I think my plan will be to run 3 AD through the weekend. Then Slowly add in some epi andro/ultra hard next week peaking at 5 pumps UH fpr 2-3 days to dry out while then stepping down the 11 KT and getting off completely while the vacation is happening
 
Thank you! Haha. I'm way off what I once was though.

Setting a 2 year goal for myself to show up at 45 with some numbers that mean something to me and in good shape.

@LeanEngineer and @subweevil . I'm not super experienced with pro hormones a couple posts above I outlined my plan to transition to Epi/Ultrahard while stepping down the 3AD and the 11KT. This is for aesthetics only really. Does that look ok? My plan was to start Inhibit E, Cloma Plex and Alpha Gel that week too so it was in the system for the following week.

I did clomaplex & alpha gel stacked together recently. It actually dropped by e2 by a lot, so I would caution against using both together, pick one or the other

I'd say good luck, but you don't need that seeing as how you've got a solid plan and are putting in the work!

I'm not very well versed on pro hormones either than what I have ran. I like epi, gives me a good aggression and an some muscle hardening. Straight epi I see nothing wrong with as long as expectations are reasonable. Not a bash on anyone or any product, I personally do feel it's not super strong but does give a boost and is good for aesthetics. I've enjoyed every run with it, but for me 3AD is way better in every faucet. This is what's rough, not everyone responds the same way, so I only offer advice if I've actually used something and only listen if someone is talking from experience.

If you've ran those supplements before, then you know what to expect. If not, you won't be fully able to know what they are contributing and what they are not, some will argue run the kitchen sink, me personally, I would like to know what was responsible for what, only way to do that is solo. I would caution too much e control, with that stack, unless you know something I don't. SNS and Steve are very supportive on this board, I can personally vouch for their quality, might be a good question for him As is Iconic and Rob but you seem to be a non-responder. This is what makes it tough for recommending a course of action.

I don't see anything wrong per se of running that stack, just trying to give you some pointers. Hope this helps and always happy to help.

I agree with this. No issues from my perspective on running what you have outlined.

Awesome! Thank you! Oh and it seems to me like Rob and Iconic are a great company. I'm sad that I'm not a great responder. Says nothing about the quality of the product. I saw a lot of people saying they had great results without changing diet too much etc. That's what left me a little surprised.

I agree with you on the epi and I wouldn't be looking for performance benefits anyway much more the muscle hardening/aesthetics at this point.

Huge party last night that my wife hosted for co workers...the food and beverages were ...not good lol. Now we have a ton left and a family birthday party I was unaware of.

Plan is to try and take today as a maintenance -ish day. Then I'm going to hit another fast and some very light cardio.

You are most welcome. Rob has gone above and beyond with customer support, for me as well as others. A true testament is him anticipating an issue, through no fault of his own and going above and beyond, I was pleasantly surprised and very grateful. At my age, I'm old enough to remember when that meant something, for me, it still does. The great taste of low price sours when the cost of poor customer service happens. I haven't always responded well to things either, it happens. Sometimes, there are underlying issues we don't know, other times, chalk it up to non-responder.

I guess the positive is with it not being good, not temptations lol.

I Love fasting and then eating at maintenance to break it, makes me a beast at the gym, go crush it!

Definitely mentally strengthens me if I do this :LOL:

This may switch up quite a bit haha.

A little disappointed I didn't keep up with the multiple cardio sessions or add in a little extra fast but this may be what it is at this point
 
Respect on the 48 hour fast, most I can ever do is 24 or a bit more. Just get too hypo, open for advice. I've resorted to sleeping after 24 hours lol but can't cause I get such a headache and my stomach won't shut up.

Same here. Most i've done is 24 hours so far but really want to push myself and go for 72 hours in the near future. It's the going to bed hungry part that I'm not looking forward to ha.

That's okay, dod what I do and sleep through it (lol if you can).
 
Couldn't tell you for sure, don't think it will cause an insulinogenic response. I'm just so drained I can usually pass right out lol. I know magnesium does it for me, it's a night time staple!
 
Just an update... tweaked my back at the end of the week . Still got some workouts in but didn't go crazy with cardio.

On vacay now.... worked up tp 5 pumps ultra hard and 3Ad was dropped last week. Ultra 11 is down to 3 pumps and will step down to 1 pump over next couple days off by Friday. Stepping down UH as well. Down to 3 today with 1 cap epiandro lean

What is the equivalent of transdermal epi to oral?

Looked pretty good on Thurs and Fri but wasn't super excited with w I showed up on Sun. Oh well I guess. Going to try to just enjoy myself the rest of the week. Either no breakfast or a david bar. one walk per day. Might do two bw workouts and then just let it rip for afternoon/dinners. Thanks for following along.

ZMA crew! I've been doing it for years!

It calms my mind beautifully. I also add in l-ornithine and l-arginine, and some r alpha lipoic acid. ZMA is cheap and effective for me. I could get by in a pinch with just magnesium, but the stack works really well for me.

That's the hardest part for me, coming down from a cycle. Good log and detail, thanks again for putting everything out there for us!

I throw in some valerian root in the evening with it and really helps me fall asleep.
