SNS Recomp20 Review in progress - 1 month (1 bottle)
Invalid Link Removed
Premise
Added SNS Recomp20 to my lean bulk without changing anything else.
2 caps with my pre-workout meal at 5:15am
2 caps with meal 4 at 4:00pm
Experience
The idea here was to use this first month to see if adding it to a lean bulk in progress would yield any results.
What i noticed almost right away was increased fullness and hardness of the muscles. Which resulted in better pumps in the gym but also that elusive "all day pump" that we all strive for.
First time I really noticed it was during a leg workout. I saw myself in the mirror and ive been lifting for close to 30 years and leg days are always a tshirt or long sleeve kinda day. But I filled out my t-shirt in a way i usually only do on a serious upper body day. Gave me a real ego boost!
Ive not gained any visible fat during this period, so maybe it increases my caloric need a little.
Results
Weight
(Tracked daily on a Fitbit Aria Scale)

Weekly average weight:

Invalid Link Removed
Basically no change to my bodyweight here. A slight drop in my weekly average weight but thats about it.
Which is pretty awesome when on a lean bulk.
With 30 years in the gym, building muscle is painfully slow and huge weight increases usually just means that you are putting on fat.
Plan for second month of SNS Recomp20
Now its time to give the body and product some more calories to work with.
Im still lean bulking so this is no liscense to eat. But like everything i do its a structured increase in my food.
My current diet is a carb cycle setup as I love that. I do one low day (recovery day), 4 medium days and 2 high days (leg days). I also allow myself 2 free meals a week if I feel like it. Mostly it's some extra food on the weekend or if my fiance bakes or if we just feel like doing something special.
The last couple of years ive been following The Vertical Diet by Stan Efferding and i've never felt better. The diet revolves around getting enough of all the micronutrients thru a solid food selection and having optimal digestion.
The first month i ate like this:
1 low day at 2800kcal (recovery day)
4 medium day at 3250kcal (regular training days)
2 high days at 3400kcal (leg days)
Second month will be structured like this
1 low day at 3000kcal (recovery day)
6 high days at 3400kcal (training days)
Invalid Link RemovedInvalid Link Removed
Training will be the same a Arnold/PPL Hybrid:
Monday - Rest
Tuesday - Legs
Wednesday - Back and Chest
Thursday - Shoulders and Arms
Friday - Legs
Saturday - Chest, Shoulders and Triceps
Sunday - Back and Biceps
Cardio
I'm following Stan Efferdings suggestion on doing 2-4 ten minutes walks post meals every day. The reasoning behind these walks are that they will improve insulin sensitivity, decrease gas, improve digestion, decrease DOMS and aid in recovery. I also walk my dogs a couple of times a day. I usually get from 14k to 18k steps each day.
Mobility
I start and finish every workout with mobility drills, stretching and foam rolling.
I usually spend around 30-40 minutes per session at this.
Expectations
I expect to gain some weight this month but hopefully not more than 0,5-1% of my bodyweight.
Will be very interesting to see how lean that weight gain will be and how I will be feeling.

I need to try out something like your month one. I currently am structured like your month 2 where I eat the same macros and calories each day regardless of what I'm training or an off day.

I feel that its easier to reduce fat gain when carb cycle, even when lean bulking.
Also im just very pedantic and also get bored doing the same thing every day

tbJP Cream of Rice - Cookies & Cream
Ive been eating cream of rice twice a day for a while now but ive just used unflavoured rice flour and then had SELECT protein sludge on top. So I wanted to try a flavored one to see if it made much of a difference. It tasted really good, but so does my regular one as im using the SELECT as the flavoring. So after this is done ill stick with my rice flour.
Strom Sports HydraMax
Ive talked about this before, but this has been a life saver during this summer as it has removed my nightly calf cramps. I take 2 scoops a day which in my mind is an insane amount of taurine, but it has worked so wonderfully that im gonna keep going with it.
Invalid Link Removed
Strom Sports DigestMax
So ive been having some issues with my stomach for a few months and it finally working optimal. So now I want it to continue being this way so ive added this product to my regime. Ive started with 1/2 serving in the morning and might add another 1/2 serving in the evening.
So it comes in vanilla and raspberry and i got the vanilla one. I also take ACV, lemon juice and Glutamine before my first meal. Just outta laziness i figured id try mixing this with that. I expected it to taste horrible, but to my suprise it was tasty haha.

Week 5 SNS Recomp20
Diet:
(Everything tracked in MyFitnessPal)
Invalid Link Removed
Since it was my first week with increased calories I didnt add any other food during the week.
Invalid Link Removed
My Apple Watch seems to think im now pretty much in a caloric maintanance now.
Body Composition:
(Weight and body fat measured on a FitBit Aria Scale every morning)
Invalid Link Removed
So a slight increase in weight. Can be from some extra glycogen storage or im gettng fat.
Recovery and exertion:
(Measured with my Apple Watch that I wear all day and night)
Invalid Link Removed
Crushed sleep again and i felt great because of it.
Invalid Link Removed
Recovery is based on HRV and RHR.
Another red day i dont have any explanations for but the end of the week was amazing.
Comments:
So my stomach acted up again on Saturday and have been messed up since.
Im guessing its a reaction to the gut health product I introduced. So im just gonne have to gut it out (pun intended) and see if it corrects itself.
MY STOMACH ISSUES ARE NOT RELATED TO RECOMP20.
IVE BEEN STRUGGLED WITH THAT FOR MONTHS NOW.
Recomp20 log:
The increased calories absolutely helps the product shine in a different way. My recovery and sleep was amazing and my fullness was even fuller, if thats possible. Strength in the gym is also on the up and the pump is beyond this world.

Just ordered some for myself to add during a cut. Helping preserve that fullness and hardness of the muscle during a deficit would be great.

Well this week started great then went downhill fast!
I felt like death on Friday and most of Saturday. Sunday my throat was so sore I had a hard time speaking.
I managed to get down food though and i did have some ice cream to sooth my throat (and because its awesome).
Ive been taking Ibuprofen and Diklofenak in big amounts. But despite this, my stomach has felt great.
So something positive at least.
Its Tuesday now and I still havent been to the gym
As it is now the earliest I wil go is on Thursday. But im just playing it day by day.
This is the longest ive taken off from the gym in many many years.

A week of basically being sick and recovering.
Even though i went to the gym on friday, saturday and sunday. It feels like i took 10 days of from the gym.
Its now Wednesday and I still dont feel able to go 100% in the gym.
Because of this I might reconsider my plans. I was suppsoed to do a mini-cut come october but I might delay that until November. So that I get another solid month of workouts and get back to 100%.
I have a bottle of CEL Recovery Fix on its way from Powemyself. IF it gets thru customs I might order a bottle of Recomp20 as well. So that I have another bottle for my mini-cut.

SNS Recomp20 Review in progress - 2 months (2 bottles)
Invalid Link Removed
Premise
Month 2 I increased my caloric intake to see how Recomp20 would work on a higher surplus.
2 caps with my pre-workout meal at 5:15am
2 caps with meal 4 at 4:00pm
Experience
This month I wanted to see if more calories would make any difference to the results. We could see that last month my calories was just barely over my maintenance. So my weight gain was basically non existent.
The month started off good but then i got sick. I had 1 full week out of the gym and the 2 weeks after my gym performance was severy hampered. Its only now that im starting to feel like my regular self again.
Because of this Ive had a hard time feeling that any of my training has done anything and that also comes to the supplements ive used.
Results
Weight
(Tracked daily on a Fitbit Aria Scale)
Invalid Link Removed
Weekly average weight:
Invalid Link Removed
So while being sick I actually gained weight, which most other people dont.
I guess its because even though i had no apetite and everything tasted off, i ate every meal as planned. I have this theory that for me to get better when sick, I have to eat. So I did that. So you can see a spike in my weight around the 12th of September.
Whats really interesting is that my measured bodyfat hasnt gone up that much. So lets hope its a good reading and not just the scale being kind.
Plan for third month of SNS Recomp20
The plan was to do a mini-cut in October, but ive decided to change that.
Because I was sick and it just now feels like im getting back into the groove, ive decided to continue my lean bulk.
I feel that i put on too much weight too fast last month. So there will not be any caloric increase in october.
BUT I will be adding CEL Ecdy-Plex to the mix!
Invalid Link Removed
For the first month I will be dosing them together with my Recomp20, so:
2 caps with my pre-workout meal at 5:15am
2 caps with meal 4 at 4:00pm
Diet will stay the same:
1 low day at 3000kcal (recovery day)
6 high days at 3400kcal (training days)
Invalid Link Removed
Training will be the same a Arnold/PPL Hybrid:
Monday - Rest
Tuesday - Legs
Wednesday - Back and Chest
Thursday - Shoulders and Arms
Friday - Legs
Saturday - Chest, Shoulders and Triceps
Sunday - Back and Biceps
Cardio
I'm following Stan Efferdings suggestion on doing 2-4 ten minutes walks post meals every day. The reasoning behind these walks are that they will improve insulin sensitivity, decrease gas, improve digestion, decrease DOMS and aid in recovery. I also walk my dogs a couple of times a day. I usually get from 14k to 18k steps each day.
Mobility
I start and finish every workout with mobility drills, stretching and foam rolling.
I usually spend around 30-40 minutes per session at this.
Expectations
Im hoping that my weight will settle a little lower than it is now as hopefully my body is fully revovered.
VERY excited to see what Ecdy-Plex will add to the table!

Premise
Month 2 I increased my caloric intake to see how Recomp20 would work on a higher surplus.
2 caps with my pre-workout meal at 5:15am
2 caps with meal 4 at 4:00pm
Experience
This month I wanted to see if more calories would make any difference to the results. We could see that last month my calories was just barely over my maintenance. So my weight gain was basically non existent.
The month started off good but then i got sick. I had 1 full week out of the gym and the 2 weeks after my gym performance was severy hampered. Its only now that im starting to feel like my regular self again.
Because of this Ive had a hard time feeling that any of my training has done anything and that also comes to the supplements ive used.
Results
Weight
(Tracked daily on a Fitbit Aria Scale)

Weekly average weight:

So while being sick I actually gained weight, which most other people dont.
I guess its because even though i had no apetite and everything tasted off, i ate every meal as planned. I have this theory that for me to get better when sick, I have to eat. So I did that. So you can see a spike in my weight around the 12th of September.

Time to brush some dust of this logbook!
A little on what ive been doing for the past year or so.
I did a successfull cut down to 82,5kg back in May 2022. Not the leanest ive been but a good place to end up. I then decided to go for a 6 month lean bulk and see where that would put me.
I gained roughly 1kg a month which is an ok rate imo. But I did not feel good at that weight. I probably had the hardest period of my life this winter and being in a shape I didnt enjoy just made it that much harder.
I was in a funk, but kept training and eating and tracking like I always have.
Below you can see the results of my lean bulk.
Invalid Link Removed
At the end of November I decided to switch over to a cut. I really didnt feel like I was gaining anything but dead weight.
I didnt get any stronger and my pumps got worse.
So i just figured out that my body and mind thrives better when im leaner.
Not stage lean, but 8-10% ish.
Since the end of November im down 5 kgs.
Plan is do drop down to around 82kgs and then maintain.
Im turning 45 this year and have been lifting for 30 years.
There might not be that much more muscle to obtain and im not willing to spend half my year not feeling my best.
Invalid Link Removed
Diet
My lean bulk topped out at 3400 kcal with this macro split
Invalid Link Removed
My current diet is down to 2600 kcal with this macro split
Invalid Link Removed
Energy and focus is good on these number, but I would prefer not to drop the calories any lower.
Since im not planning on getting stage lean I hope that will be possible with the addition of the supplements and maybe some cardio.
Training
So Ive always been a fan of high volume, but because of how I was feeling at the end of last year ive switched up my training style. Im now doing DC training for the first time in over 10 years.
Im in the gym 4 days a week doing an Upper/Lower split.
No cardio so far, just daily steps of 10k+
Supplementation
Im not doing anything exotic, just the basic stuff:
- Creatine
- Beta-Alanine
- Glutamine
- Collagen
- Digestive Aids
- Electrolytes
- D3/K2
- Omega 3
- ZMA
- C-Vitamin
- Eaa
- HBCD
- Pre Workout
- Protein Powder
Goals and expectations
Like mentioned above, my main goal is to get down to around 82kgs (or a weight where i feel "myself" again).
Then I will work on maintaining that shape (with the help of some of @sns8778 newest products).
I hope Thermo Scorch and TTA-500 will make these last kgs a bit easier to drop.
I havent tried a fat burner since back in the 90s when Ripped Fuel Red was available. That was a high stim fat burner, these are non stim. Which suits me much better.
Looking forward to reporting on the results and hope some of you will follow along.

Solid leg workout today.
For years i had an inflamed achilles and that finally went away before christmas. BUT then my hip on the same side got inflamed.. So im like a walkign inflamation bomb it seems.
As mentioned in my previous post im following the DC style of training these days. Its something i did many many years ago and I even was om TeamSkip under Ken Hill who ran the SoggCrapp forum with Dante back in the days. So im very familiar with it.
So basic break down of DC:

So basic break down of DC:
- 1 set to failure + 2 rest pauses on most muscles
- Exeptions are Calves (5 second negatives with a 15 second hold in the stretch). Back Thickness (1 heavy set then 1 back off set). Quads (1 heavy set, then a Widowmaker (20+ reps) set. Forearms (1 straight set).
- Extreme Stretching after each muscle group.
- Chest, shoulders, triceps, back width and back thickness on Day 1
- Biceps, forearms, calves, hamstrings and quads on Day 2
- Rotate Upper 1/Lower 1/Upper 2/Lower 2/Upper 3/Lower 3

Weekend workouts are the best! I get to sleep a couple of hours extra and knowing I have the day off just gives me energy, As the data shows I also had high quality sleep.
Today was the first day of Thermo Scorch and TTA-500. I will be taking the TTA before meal 1, 3 and 5 (last meal of the day). Unless it somehow messes with my sleep, but I don see why it should.
Thermo Scorch is taken with my PWO and then on non training days 2 with meal 1 and 1 with meal 4.
Tonight we are going to see John Wich 4, cant wait!

Nice workout. Chest, Shoulders, and Triceps is a good split. Right now i'm doing just chest with a little shoulders and then have a shoulder day with a little chest and it's working. I need to bring my triceps up so I keep them on a separate day to give them more attention.

Had a good session this morning. Body is still getting used to the shift to summer time (we moved the clock one hour ahead on Sunday), but it should be good to go now.
So far the effects I feel of the fat burning stack is that im running a bit hotter than normal. Last night i actually had the first sweaty nights in ages. Remember I live in northern Sweden where its still downwards to -20 degrees Celsius (-4 Fahrneheit) and I sleep besides an open window. So sweating at night is not something i tend to do in the winter!
Tonight we are going out to see The Music Of Harry Potter - Live in Concert. Looking forward to that, but that also means it will be a late night. Luckily its my day of from the gym tomorrow.

Had a good session this morning. Body is still getting used to the shift to summer time (we moved the clock one hour ahead on Sunday), but it should be good to go now.
So far the effects I feel of the fat burning stack is that im running a bit hotter than normal. Last night i actually had the first sweaty nights in ages. Remember I live in northern Sweden where its still downwards to -20 degrees Celsius (-4 Fahrneheit) and I sleep besides an open window. So sweating at night is not something i tend to do in the winter!
Tonight we are going out to see The Music Of Harry Potter - Live in Concert. Looking forward to that, but that also means it will be a late night. Luckily its my day of from the gym tomorrow.

My fiance hates it, she sleeps with 3 covers on while im using a summer cover and still sweat. My oldest dog Julian loves my heat and always crams himself as close as possible to me to take advantage of the heat.
The concert was awesome, music and atmosphere was perfect for a Potterhead like me.
Yeah, i do love summers but i always have a harder time sleeping sound the second it gets warmer.

I agree I do sleep better when its a little on the colder side. Maybe low 60s in the house is perfect sleeping temp for me.
