"Carbo Loader for the Hopeful Grower"
aka
USP Labs CLS Enhancment (Carb Loader Stack)
Products/Why:
P-Slin: Personally I have always found that my workouts are maximized by a large pre-workout consumption of complex carbohydrates (both from a standpoint of maximizing glycogen stores prior to lifting but it is also a mental thing, carbs to me = more potential growth.) Unfortunetly I was not blessed with the most efficent metabolism for carbs which makes higher carb diets (and meals) less effective for me because it comes with a price, fat gain. With P-Slin I can have my largest carb meal of the day 1.5 hours prior to lifting and have the mental focus and energy to destroy the weights.
Anabolic Pump: AP has become and will remain a staple of mine for ever unless somehow USP finds a way to make a Anabolic Pump v2. A year ago I hit a massive road block when I herniated multiple discs in my lower back. I had just spent close to 7 months trying to put on quality muscle and had gone from 185 pounds to 220 (some fat gain of course.) Now I was forced to completely stop lifting for close the full part of 6 months. I first ordered AP to help with fat gain while I was laid up. Luckily for myself I found a way to do mild cardio despite the back problems. Now the cardio alone helped with the fat loss I experienced, but the most insane part of that experience is that I lost no muscle what so ever during the entire 6 months. Now some would say that is impossible, but when I began lifting once again in October of 08 all my lifts were IDENTICAL to where I had left them (with a bf of close to 10 pounds lighter.)
Powerfull: Again from experience a USP Lab stack with Mass in mind at the moment is not complete without Powerful. After coming back from the time off and giving myself a whole 2 months to get back in the game without any help I turned to Powerful for some help breaking through plateaus. In only 4 weeks of use (1 bottle of powerful) I had brought my bench up from 225x8 to 225x15 at a body weight of 210 lbs. I was feeling so high while on powerful that even my squat jumped up from a plateaued 285x12 to 315x4 (without powerful I would have never felt in control of that weight with my back that way it was just a few months ago.) Powerful gave me that extra edge and confidence to do it.
Dosing:
Upon waking: 1 P-slin. 20 minuets later 1 bowl of Raisin Bran (807 calories, 64g protein from both fast and slow digesting sources, 140 grams of carbs.)
1 hour 30 minutes later: 3 powerfull. Carbs have been digesting and won’t blunt the effects of the Powerful.
45 minuets after P-Full dose, 2:15 minuets after P-Slin: In the gym busting my ass. Carbs have had more than enough time to be absorbed into the muscle and Powerful is on the verge of releasing full effects.
Post workout: Directly after training 1 AP, 20 minuets later post workout meal.
Rest of the Day: 2 more AP to ensure I can effectively get in the carbs and nutrients I want for maxed out LBM gains without the lingering idea of undesired fat gain. Large carb intake is no longer off my radar and instead my way of packing on muscle.
30 minutes before bed (1 hour after final meal of the day): 2 Powerfull.
**No Personal Experience at the moment but will eventually stack in to create the
Carbo Loader Stack v2 :
ReCreate: Continues with my goal of maxed out LBM gains with no fat gain or potential fat loss. From reviews and USP products success on myself in the past ReCreate will be a sure staple on abnormally high calorie intake periods. *Dosing will be determined when I see how I respond.
USP Labs New Beta Test Booster: Everything I have heard about this supplement has been nothing but positive and intriguing. Multiple reliable sources have reaffirmed its potential and the results it has brought. With my age and amount of time before I ever consider PHs or anabolic substances this USP Labs product will be a must try in any stack and I feel like it will replace my use of powerful.
The Carbo Loader for the Hopeful Grower Stack
Review:
Overall you can see why I recommend this stack from a personal perspective; because it has worked for me and my body responds positively. Now the largest downfall of people in this game is an "addiction" to food and carbs and a lack of willpower when results are slow. With this stack the novice and seasoned lifter will respond positively to the effects they produce. Novice lifters will now be able to eat carbs while loosing weight (therefore decreasing the chances of quiting all together due to food deprivation) while also seeing strength and overall health quality increases from the Powerful. Experienced lifters now have a tool to dial their diets in to the 10th degree. Carbs are no longer taboo while cutting and muscle catabolism should be the farthest thing on anyones mind while on this stack. Furthermore the experienced lifter can enter a whole new world of succes with this stack by jumping to v2 with ReCreate and Beta test Booster (again huge proponent of this for those who want nothing to do with anabolics and hormonal supplements.)
