Hey everyone, welcome to my log of Andro Quad by Primeval Labs!
General information:
I am currently 21 years and have been strength training for about 8 years now. I am a Kinesiology student with a strong background in Exercise Physiology, Anatomy, Organic Chemistry, and Nutrition so I like to think that I have a pretty solid grasp of what I’m doing in regards to my diet, exercise plan, and supplementation (more on this later). I am relatively new to the PH scene with my first exposure being a 6 week stand-alone cycle of 1-Andro by AMS.
Dosing:
Since the bottle comes with 60 capsules, I decided that I am going to dose this out at 2 caps per day for 30 days whether it’s a training day or a rest day. I usually work out between 3-5 pm so I will be taking one first thing in the morning on an empty stomach and the other one immediately post workout. For any information on ingredients or dosing, I’d recommend checking out the product description on strongsupplementshop.com. I found their explanation, dosing information, and Q&A section to be very helpful. (Sorry, but I don't have enough posts yet to put the actual URL up here)
Current stats:
6’ 1” 231lbs no way of measuring my BF% so I’ll be posting Before, During, and After pictures for comparison of body composition (sorry about the qualitative measurements).
Estimated 1RMs:
Bench: 245
Deadlift: 405
Squat: 415
I had a stress fracture earlier this summer that finally went away about a month ago and during that time, I couldn’t effectively train my legs so the squat and deadlift numbers are a bit low for me personally.
Diet:
As I mentioned before, I have a pretty good idea on how to effectively diet and how to plan out macros. Currently, I am working a lot and following a strict diet is borderline impossible for me right now so I will not be religiously counting calories or stressing about my macros. That being said, here’s what I’m planning to do:
• With my weight at 231 lbs (105 kg) and moderate to high activity level, I am roughly using 2500 kcal for rest days and 3200 kcal for training days broken up between 4-6 meals.
• My diet will be based on clean, whole foods. Lots of lean meats, vegetables, and fruit; no soda, no junk food, and no/very minimal alcohol.
• The breakdown that I feel works best for me is high Protein (around 200g on rest days and 300+ g on training days), medium Fats, and low –medium carbs
• This isn’t set in stone but I try to do protein & fat meals from when I wake up until after I work out and protein & carb meals from post workout until bed. This is based off of Carb back-loading and I feel that this works for me since I train later in the day.
Supplementation:
Bodytech Creatine & Glutamine with Beta-Alanine 1 scoop preworkout
Swanson Premium Brand L-Arginine 1000 mg
Generic Vitamin D drops 5000 IU first thing in the morning
Muscletech Protein Powder 1-2 scoops post-workout (depending on if I have time for a meal)*
*Normally, I use a more pure Whey Protein hydrolysate or isolate but this 5 lb bag was on sale for $32 and I wasn’t about to pass up on that deal
As for PCT, I am going to be using Arom-X RDe.
Training/Program:
I’m not currently following any set exercise program at the moment but I do have a couple driving forces:
• High volume and High intensity
• 4 lifts per week (usually M,T,Th,F)
• At least 1 day of cardio per week ( ideally 2 done on W&Sat)
• Chest/Back, Legs/abs, Arms/Shoulders, and Lag day (I do a makeshift workout to train any muscles that felt weak on their day/are lagging behind)
Pics and possibly some measurements to come. If anyone has any questions, comments, recommendations, or requests, feel free to tag me in a post or PM me and I'll be happy to respond.
I hope that everyone enjoys my first log!
