I haven't posted for a long while, but it is good to be back! And What better supplement to start a new log with than Combustion? Ingredient profile is great, a lot like I.B.E.'s X-Force, which has been my favorite stim since I started lifting seriously 4 years ago. This is gonna be one hell-of-a-ride!
My Stats:
Height: 5'9
Weight: 173-175 lb
BF: I have no idea, but it is NOT as low as I want it to be!
Goals:
Fat loss. I'd like to drop down to 160 -165 lb, while maintaining as much muscle and strength aspossible. At my best I was 165 lb at ~18% BF and stronger than ever.I'm definitely more muscular than I was then, but I'm fatter too.
Diet:
I will be on a moderate carbohydrate diet, most carbs will come from veggies and fruit like berries. I will be eating about 170 g of protein every day, andsupplementing my diet with protein powder, creatine, fish oil, Vit D,Vit C, BCAAs (particularly Leucine) and Primordial Performance's MAP.
Training:
I lift 4-5 days a week with a powerlifting focus. A lot of Squats, Bench, Deads, Chins, Dips, Rows,with my favorite rep range being 1-5. I frequently go above 5 reps,especially when it comes to accessory movements such as Lunges, Step Ups, Curls, Extensions, Delt Raises, Etc. I try to switch my reps andsets up every week to keep me on my toes. On occasion I'll add onsome Cardio, particularly eliptical machine- it's easy on the jointsand actually doable after setting a Deadlift PR. I also enjoy PlatePushes when I can muster the energy to do them after weights.
Combustion should be a great addition to my daily routine. My job keeps me pretty active, and can be exhausting at times. From what I've experienced from Combustion thus far, it seems to be a great energy booster without much of a crash.I'm looking forward to seeing how it will affect my fat loss as well.
