AntM's Tropinol XP Log, Powered by iForce
First off, I want to say thank you to Vaughn for selecting me for this opportunity. I also would like to extend a thanks to the good bros of iForce for keeping the loggers in the loop with Tropinol XP being shipped. With that said, I am going to do an intro with this post, followed by photos, then a third post of my workout today; the first time I used XP.
Background
I have been lifting since I was 18. I would like to do a bodybuilding show in the near future, my first one was postponed. I was a former fatty in high school, 240 pounds when I entered. Hence, the stretch marks and some loose skin in my photos.
The Claims
My Expectations
What You Can Expect
A no BS log and final review. I do not feel the need to sugar coat anything because I got a free supp. I want to help other consumers out there in choosing products that I think are good and not trash. I will also try and ive a very detailed log.
Training Schedule
Cardio is HIIT style. I train with a decent amount of volume, but move quickly. I do not go above 2 minutes of rest between sets. I also foam roll after every session, the bodypart that I trained.
Nutrition
I carb cycle. I follow The Carb Cycling Codex from T-Nation, but have modified it to my liking. My meals are either protein/carbs/low fats or protein/fats/green veggies.
I will post macros and what not on the day. I am adding calories, 50 a week in the form of carbs, on weeks I do not gain, or even lose weight. I want to put on clean mass and think this approach has been working. I get about 1.5 gallons of water in my body a day.
Other Supps
That is it folks. If you think I left something out, feel free to ask me about it or tell me. In regards to my sig, I have gotten some PM's about it, if you'd like, you can post any questions here. I am open about it and do not hold anything back. Currently, I am at work. I will try and get my other two posts in by tonight, if not, they will be up by tomorrow evening.
