Didnt get the genes for the NPC lol, that's for sure.Looking really good, very athletic!
It is. Caffiene seems like such a double edged sword. There are clear benefits, and clear downsides to its useage.Interesting read.
I guess that your body adapt to it and its not as detrimental for us "chronic coffee abusers".It is. Caffiene seems like such a double edged sword. There are clear benefits, and clear downsides to its useage.
I use a ton of caffeine daily along with exotic stims most days....imo, Invictus counters the negatives.It is. Caffiene seems like such a double edged sword. There are clear benefits, and clear downsides to its useage.
Definitely the cortisol effects.I use a ton of caffeine daily along with exotic stims most days....imo, Invictus counters the negatives.
yup, the affects of high cortisol are numerous.....fortunately the positive affects of b-AET are also numerous.Definitely the cortisol effects.
i'll take two.High fat. High beef protein. Highly anabolic. Cheeseburger casserole. View attachment 182250
Nice that you could feel itSo I did dose more Invictus and 2x the dose of VII KT in the morning because I missed last nights dosing. I experienced an increase of appetite a couple hours after. Nothing painful or bad, but something I could associate with lowered cortisol, and a speed up metabolism.
It was Pull Day
Weighted pull ups
10lbx10 5 sets, then dropped the weight, and could only do 5 BW pullups. These are good reps, each one controlled, slow down, and intense burst up (no swinging around on the bar). I have consistently gotten stronger on my pulls.
DB rows/BB Curls
Focused on intensity, and controlled reps
Rope pushdown/Rope pulls
Intensity focus.
Felt good throughout the day, minus the sore/tender lower back. Good energy levels. More level/calm when stressors arise. Rest day tomorrow, seeing End Game (Don't spoil), and then legs on Sunday.
I also find this to be true. It kind of gives new life to my stims!I use a ton of caffeine daily along with exotic stims most days....imo, Invictus counters the negatives.
Congrats! That is an undertaking. Mine is 4 months, I understand.Looking good, Sorry I have been MIA. Son was born 4-15 had to take care of him and mamma
Thank you and at 4 months I'm sure you do understand.Congrats! That is an undertaking. Mine is 4 months, I understand.
sounds good!!!Consistent good sleep last night. Fell asleep easy. Woke up to pee, and fell asleep easy again.
Day 24. I think.
Chest day
Flat bench
135x10
200x6 5 sets
Skull crushers
4 sets with a focus on the stretch and intensity
Cable crossovers/ 4 sets DB tricep kick back
25x10 4 sets
It took me a while to get out of the house for the gym this morning, so was abbreviated.
At the end of both Invictus and VIIKT, so will have final weigh in, final pics (non pumped and pumped), and a review.
Nice. Had to avoid skull crushers due to a slip a few years ago with 70# dumbbells and my face. Not goodConsistent good sleep last night. Fell asleep easy. Woke up to pee, and fell asleep easy again.

Oh my. I was actually thinking about the DB falling apart on my head because the DB I was using, plate on it was loose.Nice. Had to avoid skull crushers due to a slip a few years ago with 70# dumbbells and my face. Not good
AWESOME!!!!First two pictures are before the stack. Pictures 3 and 4 are today. This is me glycogen depleted.View attachment 182354View attachment 182355View attachment 182356View attachment 182357
See progress?AWESOME!!!!
short answer-YES!!!See progress?
great log and review-thank you!!!Review of Invictus and VII KT
Application:
Easy application. Easy to rub in, and drys pretty fast. Had no issues in the application department. Applied mostly to forearms, under arm, chest, and deltoids.
Scent:
I found the scent appealing. My wife did not care too much for the scent.
Did the products help me accomplish my goals:
my goal was to lose fat, gain muscle, and on a calorie deficit for me. I had previously consumed over 3200 calories a day, and had dropped to between 2200 and 2400 calories. Protein was between 160 and 180g per day. Diet base waa ketogenic. I started at 160.8, and finished at 162, and a little leaner. There is evident progress in back width, and I even believe some in my arms. I gained muscle, lost fat, and on a deficit. This stack is evidently anti catabolic. If you are in an anti catabolic state, it makes it easier to retain, and even gain lean mass. I experienced an evident cortisol drop even at the beginning of using the products. Symptoms included some drying out, falling asleep easier at night, and when being bombarded by stressors, being able to just be still. Definitely experienced lower stress within these 4 weeks. I didn't personally notice a libido increase, but it also did not suffer either. I did notice appetite to improve, which is also a sign of cortisol dropping, and even my metabolism picking up. There was a couple times throughout out the 4 weeks where it seemed a virus was trying to take me down, but my immune system overcame. Invictus is proven to increase immune response.
Overall, this stack is a no brainer, proven track record stack. Not only through my experience, others experiences, but they are studied to work, and do what they are claimed to do. If you are stressed, if you have heightened cortisol, if you are over 30, if you want to recomp/cut, then these are what you should be including in your regiment.
Thank you @cheftepesh and Iron Legion for allowing me to log this. I appreciate it, and you.
Depending on your injury, 10mg won't last long.. But, 5mg of tadalafil ed is insane in the gym and the "side effects" in the bedroom don't suck either. LolI have 10mg BPC 157, and Tadalifil (run 5mg ED) on the way. I will get some colligan as well. Run a log.
Yeah I figured it would last about 20 days. My injuries are not severe, at least that is what I assume. I read up that tadalafil improves muscle protein synthesis, lowers estrogen, raises testosterone, raises dht, improves prostate function, provides great pumps. Gonna be good.Depending on your injury, 10mg won't last long.. But, 5mg of tadalafil ed is insane in the gym and the "side effects" in the bedroom don't suck either. Lol
Hehehe! Finally someone else discovering tadalafil. EOD is enough, 5mg eod or e3d does the trick for me. Beware of some bad sides, like heartburn and pain in the hamstrings.Yeah I figured it would last about 20 days. My injuries are not severe, at least that is what I assume.

You sparked the curiosity! Lol. So 5mg eod is plenty ehh. I could do that; will last longer.Hehehe! Finally someone else discovering tadalafil. EOD is enough, 5mg eod or e3d does the trick for me. Beware of some bad sides, like heartburn and pain in the hamstrings.
I used more BPC and I used much more bac water to get a higher volume.@hairygrandpa If I want to easily dose 250mcg, how much BAC should I put in the BPC vial?
