Off we go.
I'll be logging X-factor/Drive/RPM for the next 2 months (or so).
Stats:
28 years old
5'11"
170 lbs this morning
Chest - 40"
Arms - 15"
Waist at belly button (relaxed - not holding stomach in) - 31"
Waist at hips - 30.5" (a bit bloated)
Quads - 21" for left, 22" for right
calves - 15.25"
Dose:
X-factor - 4 caps/day, divided into 2 or 4 doses (depends if I forget)
Drive - 8 caps/day, divided into 2 doses - first thing in the AM and pre-WO
RPM - 3 caps right now pre-WO, may go up from there
Other supps:
Naplam w/ clen - have been on since 2/23/08 (rotating with Lipo-Y) and will finish this out, should be 2 or 3 more weeks
multi vitamin
NOW's curcumin
Twinlab B vitamin
Saw palmetto
SAM-E
NOW's vita berry
Miracle Reds
NOW's methyl B-12 sublingual
NOW's astaxanthin
Nutra's ALA, ALCAR, tyrosine
TrueProtein's Alpha GPC (and a few other nootropics maybe once per week)
Designer Supps' Glucophase XR (only before big carb meals - a few times per week)
Ergopharm's 1-NO pre-WO - only a week and a half left, will double up to finish faster
Gaspari's SizeOn - about a week and a half left - have to take post-WO as it really upsets my stomach (look forward to finishing as I can't take all the crapping much longer)
PAL's ResetAD
various stimulants - will be reducing those down to just diet soda now that I'm on RPM
Muscle Milk n Oats (not sure if a supp) - one per day at work, tastes really good
I've stopped fish oil and flax oil - was taking 5 grams a day of both of those.
Goals:
Lean out - in pursuit of a 6 pack for the first time since I was 18/19. Napalm has really helped - 5 are visible right now.
With this stack - I'm going for a really clean bulk, but won't jeopardize my bodyfat just for gains.
Other than that - am just excited to try this stack.
Prior experience with these supps:
Drive log - http://anabolicminds.com/forum/applied-nutriceuticals/77554-jmh80-reviews-drive.html
RPM - have a bottle, have used sparingly at 1 or 2 caps pre-WO
Never used X-factor
Training:
5 days a week of lifting - still very much the workout I got from Bobo. Have had to swap some exercises out because they cause me joint issues (and didn't in 2005).
I am now doing cardio again for the first time in 2 years or so. I'm doing 20 to 30 mins after lifting 4 days a week. Every once and a while for fun I go on an off-day and do 45 mins or so.
Abs are done 3 days a week currently. Though not many reps - haven't worked them in a long time either and they get cramped quickly.
Diet:
Protein is 170 to 250 grams/day as of late.
Carbs are variable - 100 to upwards of 400. (Not carb cycling - just happens.)
Fats - will be lower till I figure out what to replace the unsaturated fats with.
Will try to keep track of my diet at least a few days a week on here or Fitday.
I have one cheat day per week - a weekend day. I do slip up and have cheat meals here and there during the week. I'd say that happens every other week on average. (Going out with friends to eat, for instance.)

For reference - before I started Napalm (2/23/08)
All pictures are cold (i.e. not from post-WO)
I'd welcome input or questions.
Later.
