Thanks!i think the studied dose is 750mgs with meals.
maybe kat can confirm?
Love to see the consistency and dedication. Keep it up!
THanks @Lynks8 and @Rocket3015 It feels good to be back in it and making real progress!Doing good buddy !!

Thanks Kat, for now just having some more coffee.I used 500mgs before bed to avoid any extra sleepiness throughout the day. It’s not the same as a fat burner suppressant but found that overall mood was better and appetite was smaller.
Thanks Brother! Things are going nicely.Nice work @MrKleen73 you never fail to inspire me when you get on a roll man.
Epichaos definitely made me sweat/heat up locally immediately after application when I was using it last fall.
Thanks Kat, for now just having some more coffee.

I weighed in at 203.7 this week so down almost 2lbs from 205.5 last week. Today I did a full body session at the gym then had my carb nite fiesta! Just finished the day at about 220p, 65f, 600c. I got in lots of salt and potassium and am expecting to look quite full tomorrow.
Again impressed with the fat loss, and am pretty sure there is some systemic assistance from the FLASHPOINT. I am still unsure on the lower chest fat loss being locally accelerated or not. The area is definitely tightening up and I am happy with current progress!
I noticed that with both, epichaos and ursa major
Yeah, I assume there is something in the solvent, but either way enjoying the effect.I noticed that with both, epichaos and ursa major
Agreed and thanks!Sweet.. Sounds like great progress so far. Keep it up
Nice work man! Two pounds a week is greatFLASHPOINT - First Bottle / Two Weeks In Summary
Application Schedule - 3 applications daily - Morning, Pre-Workout or Activity, and Before Bed - 0.5ML to each side of my lower pec and armpit area.
2 Weeks in - 4 Lbs down from an already carb depleted state so not water weight but fat loss = Impressed
Targeted Effect - Seeing some systemic assistance from the product in my opinion but too early to tell on the spot reduction. Lower pecs are definitely tightening up but I am losing at a rate of 2lbs per week so hard to differentiate between spot reduction and overall reduction at this point. I need to have a little closer to my abs coming in before I can really start making definitive claims.
Application - Since not rotating application placement due to spot reduction I am starting to notice a little more sensitivity to the skin in the area. Especially my nipples. I know this may sound odd, but they sting a little now when I apply, similar to the initial warming of the area just more sensitive there. Also, just barely now 2 weeks in it and 3 applications a day seems to be starting to aggravate my eczema a little. Not much at all but enough to mention it. To counter this I added an application of lotion to the area once a day and it keeps it from drying out too much and controls the issue.
Thanks Brother!Nice work man! Two pounds a week is great![]()
As of right now it is completely manageable, just giving a play by play on it. If it becomes more of an issue I may have to figure out a rotation of some sort. RIght now though, I am going to drive it until the wheels get wobbly.Will you rotate in any other application sites preemptively or are you going to drive it til the wheels inevitably fall off?
Can i recommend you not put it directly on thine narples?
Yea figure out something. I don't think you need to do that ! Can you imagine
chapped narples!!?

Day 15 - Burn Day - Tonight is going to be more VR conditioning and more than likely will take a nice walk at lunch.
I took 2 days off Friday and Saturday last week, was just feeling beat up a little and also was missing my wife after 2 weeks of most of my time in the evenings being dedicated to fitness. I rested up Saturday and just chilled with the wife. Was just what I needed.
Yesterday's gym session was a full body but not a numbers logged workout.
Warm Up - rope mill 5 minutes
SuperSet 1 Hoist Roc It Machines - work sets in the 8-15 rep range
Decline Chest Press - 90x20ish, 140x20ish, 180x 3 sets @RPE8, 9, & 10
Supported Rows - 90x20ish, 140x20ish, 180x 3 sets @RPE8, 9, & 10
True Full Body Press - 90x20ish, 140x20ish. 180x 3 sets at RPE8, 8, & 9
Leg Press - Various foot placement and stances - I put 4 plates on and did several high reps sets with very little rest, I was putting my feet all over the platform to work all areas of the thigh. Created most of my own tension on these to make harder work while not putting the hip in a bad situation. Got a really good pump and pre-fatigued the thighs for the isolation work.
Super Set 2 - Leg Extensions and Lying Leg Curls - 5 sets each, worked up over 2 sets on both then finished with 3 RPE8+ sets.
Super Set 3 - Seated Triceps Extensions, and Preacher Curls - 5 sets each, worked up over 2 sets on both then finished with 3 RPE8+ sets.
Super Set 4 - Side Delt Raise Machine and Reverse Fly Machine - 5 sets each, worked up over 2 sets on both then finished with 3 RPE8+ sets.
I started this workout about an hour after starting my carb refeed so I could get a nice pump and be shuttling in nutrients throughout the workout. It was pretty awesome to see myself with a pump while having carbs in the old system. Then to continue growing throughout the evening as I got more and more full of glycogen it was pretty cool.
Yesterday I opted to not use FLASHPOINT other than my first application. With the nutritional set up it just didn't make sense to have my body trying to oxidize fat in a high insulin environment which would lead to redepositing it. I started back up this morning.
================================================================================
Yeah, I assume there is something in the solvent, but either way enjoying the effect.
Agreed and thanks!
LMAO, maybe I can get some pasties to cover them during application. Maybe even get some with tassles !!!!Can i recommend you not put it directly on thine narples?
Yea figure out something. I don't think you need to do that ! Can you imagine
chapped narples!!?
Well hoping not to stimulate lactation like the cry of a baby or anything like that!!!!I don't put anything directly on my Naples.
I don't want to risk making them sensitive, and I don't want to stimulate them. I feel like that can contribute to bad things happening.
This!I don't go out of my way to apply to the nips but I don't go out of my way to avoid it either.![]()
Thanks Kat, I definitely enjoyed it. A little scary to allow unplanned days off while getting back in. The worry of backsliding creeps in but this was definitely the right thing for me.Excellent work!! Nothing wrong with a little extra coffee!
I’m glad you took you some time off to recover and enjoy yourself with your wife too!
So as a little feedback, my wife commented "That stuff smells so bad!" from 5 feet away about 5 minutes after I put it on. Doesn't effect efficacy but she really doesn't like the smell.
At least not the potent part of it. However I have noticed it 30-40 minutes later doing a smell test if my shirt is off, but I don't know how it smells to others at that point. However it is the initial 10 minutes she says is kind of overwhelming to her. Easy solution apply when she isn't in the room or just refer her to @xR1pp3Rx 's post below!The smell does not last long.
Could be! However I showered like 2 weeks ago so that can't be it yet.Are you sure it's the flashpoint and not just your natural smellJust kidding.
LMAO! Oh she is used to me and my stuff by now. She has dealt with many an odd odor from my supplementation. I can't promise she will love this smell but I know she'll be loving me at my APEX!Tell her to buckle up.. that you must ATTAIN YOUR APEX!
she will love the smell once that is done...
Hoi the gym up yesterday was a great session but I am on vacation weekend and not really dieting. Will hit the gym tomorrow but no official weigh in for the week. Starting to see what looks like might be spot reduction bit too soon to tell.
Thanks, it was short lived. LOL Just took Friday off and headed to San Antonio for the weekend since we were going to pick up the child.Enjoy your vacation!!
No, I am actually not only back already,but now having to go home and pack up for a trip to California for work. Lovely to have it happen in the middle of this. Trying to figure out now if I am going to be able to take the FLASHPOINT with me. I don't think the bottle is too big but need to look at the silly TSA rules. Not sure I will get to the gym much at all this week either with what is going on. Heading out for a trial that we just found out for sure is kicking off this weekend. So I have to go set up for it. Will be gone a week, and Los Angeles County just reactivated their mask mandate even for vaxxed people. Not sure what gym access will be. A lot up in the air with this trip but going to make things work.Any special plans for the week ?
I don't think you will have any trouble taking your FlashPoint with you!
logic is sound.Also, focus on not breaking your diet. It’s easier to cut with work/travel because all you need to do is abstain from junk.
You may have to intermittent fast and/or buy some protein drinks & nuts at convenience/gas stores, but you will make it work with your super busy work days.
Nope, sure didn't.I don't think you will have any trouble taking your FlashPoint with you!
I was a little nervous when I saw no solvents or nothing flammable because I imagine this stuff could light up pretty easily.Yep! Just put it in a clear 2qt ziploc with your other 3.3oz/100ml or smaller liquid toiletries. You will pull this out of your carry on bag to set in its own tub when going through security, same as you would use a separate tub for your laptop.
If you put it in a checked bag, you don’t even need to do that.
Yes This is the bigger one here. I am sticking with intermittent fasting, and also keeping carbs low, but I am not in Keto right now, or perhaps in and out of it getting in 50-100g of carbs a day right now but still in a steep deficit. Definitely been keeping overall calories and insulin levels on the low end.Also, focus on not breaking your diet. It’s easier to cut with work/travel because all you need to do is abstain from junk.

It isn't often I have to travel especially as of late, and coming to LA I wasn't sure what the return of the mask mandate might do for the gym availability. Happy no effect here.i used to have to travel a bit for work.. i can totally relate.

Also, I am thinking about changing my dietary strategy because my daughter just made a lot or progress recently with her food intake and choices. I want to try to help her keep that going and they had her eating a more balanced diet at her camp. She is trying to keep it going and has done well since she has been home. Knowing that I want to be able to prep some enjoyable meals for both of us. In the end the caloric balance is going to be the deciding factor regardless when it comes to fat loss.
