Thanks man, i think the effects i could have got over the last few days are a result of electrolyte imbalance and some dehydration. Cause i was noticing tightness and slight cramping in all muscles i had trained.
Im going to use for another week before making ovservations.

Day 8
So my stomach is still feeling pretty battered, however decently improved from yesterday. Leads me to believe it isn't a colitis flare thank god. Energy wise I was in the zone today, smashed through work, did xmas shopping then hit the gym. Actually had a great session, hit recent PB's on quite a few compounds and was pumped as fuark buy the end of it, I even smashed out the leftover legs workout from the other day. All In all pretty rapped about that.
In relation to TD EP1C, ill give a little run down from the first week. It is pretty obvious this stuff assists in getting a pump, after about day 4-5 I would apply in morning after shower, go eat breakfast and would get like a kind of GDA like effect in the following few hours where my shirt would get slightly tighter everywhere, even vains which only usually come out after a workout starting making a presence. Im pretty confident that the tightness and slight cramping is directly related to this stomach bug as these effects are slowly subsiding over the last few days. I can't make a comment on strength/endurance on this stuff yet as it has only been a week.

DAY 9 + 10
Merry xmas everyone for the other day, Didn't eat anywhere near as much as I would have liked. Stomach still not great but im till in BAU mode. As my legs were pretty damn sore after doing hammies the other day I thought it would be a good opportunity for a lower body deload and skip legs yesterday. I did Shoulders and Back and had a great session.
Still getting a great pump after dosing then eating high carb meal, pumps during my workout are also very solid. Not ready to comment on endurance, strength etc I will get through another workout rotation before that. Nothing extremely noticeable in these aspects is jumping out at me at this point FYI.

How efficiently is Ep1c absorbed transdermally? Is the molecular weight small enough? Or does it require some type of disruption in the stratum corneum to be absorbed?

Felt pretty good today, good energy and mood. Just did a whole bunch of little tasks I had built up and then hit the legs. Smashed it and had a wicked pump going. I will upload some pics of these pumps im getting over the next week. It is day 11 and my bottle feels as though there is less than half left. Not sure how much was in there to begin with but im following instructions for 1 pump ED. Guess we will have to wait and see how many days I get out of it but at this point im guessing noo more that 22-23 days.

Between the amentoflavone in Conqu3r and the epicatechin in Ep1c, you will definitely see an increase in your lifts. Additionally, you should see mood benefits continue as well.

It's not just a theoretical placebo effect to these ingredients, but actual evidence. Experiments using amentoflavone showed that it increases intracellular calcium release and has acetylcholinesterase inhibition, which translates into stronger muscle contraction. And epicatechin increases both endurance (as measured by treadmill running) and hand strength, in addition to the myostatin inhibition it's known for.

DAY 13 - DAY 18
Hey everyone, sorry for my little hiatus, had a music festival which I went to over new years. I didn't train on day 15, 16 and 17, ate pretty sh*thouse and got around the beers quite a bit on these days. Don't regret it one bit seeing as I've been slogged at work all year and my UC been draining my life in recent times as well. So as I mentioned earlier I trained upper body power on day 14 which was great, pulled up with no DOMS what so ever on day 15. The following two days I was on my feet for probably 20+ hours a day. I still applied 1 pump of TD EP1C each day.
Here's the funny thing I got back from this festival on yesterday and decided to go train legs. I was obviously not feeling flash but my session was very good, hit my numbers from the last workout pretty easily. Guess it was the few days off I had really allowed for full recovery of these muscles which have been abused lately. I'm typing this update the following morning after this workout and again no DOMS to speak of. Whether I can attribute this increase in recovery to TD EP1C? I think soo. We will wait and see how the next week and a bit pans out before I make the call.
In saying this though, I can't make the call that I have noticed anything out of the ordinary in terms of body compositions changes, weight gain/loss or significant strength gains. I do notice a good pump in all my workouts and slight GDA effect in the hours after application and eating of a meal.
I will make my log update later this afternoon after my Back/shoulders workout

Today I thought I would weigh in to see how much damage was done over the past few days when I was away, so I weighed in at 82.6kg. Very surprising seeing as I definitely overate big time on a few days. Looks like I burnt a lot more energy then I thought. After my update yesterday I trained Back and Shoulders, got a great pump going and mind muscle connection was great. Pulled up with some serious DOMS today. Deffinitely going to be an interesting Chest and arms workout today.

3 Week Review
On to the home stretch, now that im three weeks in i feel i can make a decent review of this products effects. So nothing about TD EP1C impresses me all that much so far to be honest.
As you have previously seen i have noted slight pumps after dosing and then eating, my workouts usually always give a good pump, ive used the td Epic in the absence of any pump pwo and still got a good pump going.
Other main effect has been hunger increases post workout which kicked in after week two. I noted soreness in the first week and good recovery after week two, these effects weren't anything spectacular to be honest, my increased cals could have played a part in recovery.
I went back to my log notes i have kept from early last year too see my progression at these calories and compared it to now, not the greatest tool but it gives some context. Nothing out of the ordinary in terms of strength gains, im lifting more obviously but progression is close to the same if not slower.
Endurance wise, i reckon i noticed more profound effect from the oral version, nothing out of the ordinary here with the td version. Not to much more to comment on that, i was bolus dosing oral at 600mg so in guessing that is a chit ton more than 1 pump of td version.
No notable changes in body composition, however lets be serious here, 3 weeks into a run we cant expect much in this department.
Honestly, i get better pump, endurance and strength gains with Anabeta. OL i would think seriously about cost benefit for this product before mass producing. Again this is interim results, still one week to go.
Will post leg workout from yesterday soon.

Good feedback, you had a stretch of being sick for a while there as well, right?
Also, then went wild for a few days, correct?
I appreciate the honesty as you know I do but do you think with everything that was going on you were able to feel the full potential of the product? I'm asking to see your thoughts, nothing more. Just curious if you think these full days had any impact on your training if you take a step back and look at it.
Answer honestly, you know I want the feedback but think about all possibilities, ya know?

DAY 21
Felt hungry again today after my workout, over ate by about 500 calories today. Also felt really thirsty for some reason. Legs session was mediocre, Speed squats felt heavier than ususal, munched through minimun rep ranges on hacks and did alright on leg press and extensions. Stiff deads felt good and curls really burnt. Overall not overly impressed with it seeing as I had everything in place ( ate well, felt rested and work didn't drain it too hard). I used Katana with a scoop of High Volume for my preworkout.
TD EP1C was applied in morning after shower, one week to go and there feels as though there is sufficient left to get me through the run.
Nutrition: 3025 Calories

Hamstring curls:

6 sets on calves.
And thats all she wrote, was sweaty tied and ready to call it.

To be fair, i have suffered with UC for two + years now and never let it get in the way of my training, I still hit it balls to the wall no matter what. I think i missed one day because of intense pain but i had trained an extra day prior so it was still net the same workouts. Yes had three days off but again trained an extra day before going away.
You are right to be skeptical because of these few things going on, and i agree it is a busy time of the year to be fully committed to a log. But i have used many supplements and know how they effect my training efforts and results. All im saying at the moment is im not noticing any significant effects from this one.
Just to add on from here, if you remember I was making progress on my workouts from the addition of Conqu3r to my PWO regiment, that was notable for the first few weeks in endurance, strength etc, the addition of TD EP1C has not yeilded any effects close to that (just an example comparison).

Bro, I specifically wanted you to log for this reason. I'm just trying to look at EVERY facet of what we have going on. Please continue being objective. I merely asked those questions to keep things objective on both sides.
As far as im concerned ALL feedback is positive feedback. Keep up the solid work brother! Curious to see how things pan out.
For your 3 days off, I can't remember didn't you say you drank or did I make that up lol

I did drink, trained immediately after getting back and had a good sessions. I think ive come across the wrong way, i have progressed over the past three weeks. My progression however has been consistent as it has been without the TD EP1C variable being included.

Again, good info brother. You came across no way. I'd have you test again bro, we want honesty, which I know you're providing. Just looking at all variables that may have had an impact.
All good my dude! 1 week left, let's see where we go from here
