True Shred + Alpha Lean 7 + Corti Combat Log

[kompaking]

Sup all,

First time posting in a forum in YEARS, been creeping on this site on and off as registered user since 2016. Anywho JUST started a cycle of True Shred + Alpha Lean 7 + Corti Combat this a.m.and thought I'd log it for those who are interested in trying as well.

It took me a hot minute to finally pull the trigger and try this stack...looked around for a few weeks looking for reviews...reviewing the ingredients and such. In addition I think there were only 2-3 reliable logs from beginning to end that documented progress. I'm hoping to make it through the 8 weeks as well and looking for insight and support along the way.

Now 11:36 ET, still feeling "UP" AND just had my mid-morning snack ( granny smith apple, greek yogurt, and string cheese). Again I'm running on 4 hours of sleep usually at this time I'm going for my mid morning walk around the office to wake me up. Also the focus I'm feeling is pretty cool. Knocking down task after task. Excited to see where I am 3 weeks from now!

7:06 pm ...took my second dose of true shred 1/2 hour ago, can't help this feeling of heightened senses (IF you know what I mean!) Had a pretty good Monday. found that I felt relaxed and easy going for the whole day, depsite having to provide guided breathing techniques to one of my staff who was having an asthma attack until the paramedics came, and even THEN I was in chill mode. Heading home to try and complete day 1 of insanity with the wife.

In on this for sure! Alpha lean 7 and true shred are great products by hard rock supplements for cutting! Based on the other logs from true shred you should get some nice results.

 

[christ83189]

Ill follow along

 

[BOSSMAN]

Great stack bro! I dropped 15lbs in 2 months. Go in a deficit and put in the work and it will happen. TRUE SHRED kicks in around week 4, grab a 2nd bottle. Also, I dosed 6 caps a day on 2ND bottle. You will get results!!

 

[BOSSMAN]

You really won't "feel" much on the TRUE SHRED but you will "see" the TRUE SHRED. But for the ALPHA LEAN, oh yeah brother...you will be flying high off that sh1t

 

[BOSSMAN]

I'm gonna follow, interesting for me. Almost started with your exact stats. I'm 37, 5 9, and was 216 when I started that stack.

2:55pm Just had lunch, been eating cleaner and feeling a lot lighter. This Alpha Lean 7 gives you this ongoing feeling of "greatness" loving it. I think the fact that I got some good rest coupled with it is amazing. Despite this sticky NYC heat feeling like a champ, got three compliments today :dance:, I'm like legit excited to see the end result. Keep you posted for later's T25 chronicles

 

[LeanEngineer]

Nice workout man! Yea like bossman said, bottle two of true shred and you will definitely see results in the mirror.

NUTRITION 6/19/20

ACTIVITY 6/19/20

6/19/18 update:

Went to the park and completed day 2 T25 with the Mrs. I actually took another dose of the Alpha Lean 7 around 7ish, and had the craziest 25 minute HIIT session. Sweating like bullets, but not that cracked out feeling, and I ACTUALLY got some REAL good sleep last night

6/20/18
Soooooooooo this a.m.got the usual morning routine completed (true shred, alpha lean, fish oil and cla) and wifey asks me to help her review for an exam. Now I take my workout time mucho seriously, but family duties come first.

Soooooooooo as I'm sitting at the table with her about 35-45 minutes in, the AL7 starts kicking in. Now I'm no newbie to stims...but THIS here was such an unpleasant sensation. Like nauseous and chills, and I felt like I had to spit like a pregnant woman every other minute. I realized that taking this and remaining dormant ISN'T the way to go..it eventually passed, but the 2 prior days taking it and* working out didn't yield such effects.
Moral of the story DON'T take your supps til you're ready to boogie LOL.. I woke up back at 219 definitely had more carbs last night than needed, but it's cool...all a learning process.

BUUUUT on a brighter note, I do look a little leaner, and that vein midline down your arm is slowly appearing (whoop whoop)!

 

[BOSSMAN]

Man a cap of ALPHA LEAN at 7pm??? That would screw me up big time. I have to take 1 cap at around 3am for real, that's when I workout . I personally only dose 1 cap a day and it carries me 14 15 hours. That's prolly what got you this morning. Keep grinding and mixing it up , you will find your sweet spot

I hope so, that feeling this am, whoooo nooo bueno

Yeah buddy, ain't bad if your up and moving. But if your in a situation like in the house or office work you can definitely go nuts!!! Sometimes if I know I'm gonna be in that situation I don't even take it. When I do take ALPHA LEAN, I usually skip coffee, and go with non stim pwo. I can usually make 1 bottle of ALPHA LEAN lasts 3 months...lol...if I had to. Try to ween off stims no for a month or so.

Like I stated before this log has my interest big time due to the fa t I just ran this exact stack and our stats are dam near the same. By any means I'm not a nutrition expert at all, but if I could make a small suggestion just because it worked for me. I would suggest maybe a 40/40/20 split on your macros, try to get them carbs down to about 100g a day. It worked for me. Good job hitting that protein number too!

Thanks bro, keeping the carbs a lil high this week just to keep my strength and get in the groove of things...next 2 weeks I'll be dropping the carbs drastically..

Nutrition/macros for 6/20/18

weight loss

Sup Gang,

Had a great nights sleep after rehearsal. Woke up at 217 today, so I was a little excited. Woke up kinda on the late side so didn’t bother trying to go to the gym. since I ate so little yesterday and rather early at that, I thought I’d do some fasted HIIT. I took my 2 true shred, 1 alpha lean 7, 2 cla, fish oil, and my serving of xtend ripped bcaas and did the Insanity “Pure Cardio” DVD. Man I was sweating missiles from just the warm up, also had on sauna belt. It’s now 1:33, and I’m feeling pretty good, just a lil sleepy, think it's the weather.

 

[LeanEngineer]

Nice cardio session! Seems like you have your nutrition and macros on point!

It's all a learning process, and that's the beauty of documentation. Last year when I was in better shape i was eating much better, went back to fit bit and realized what I needed to do to make it happen. I'm feeling like this week coming is going to be EPIC progress wise. Finished a major project at work, submitted my last assignment for my degree last night...so this week I should have more time to focus on ME!

6/21/18 update:

So being that I didn't make it to the gym yesterday morning I took it upon me to go last night, and OMG am I glad I went. Maybe it was the carb overload yesterday plus another dose of AL7, but man I f*°«ed chest/and tris up last night.

Last night I was REALLY on some sh!t...I just felt like I could keep on going, and the sweat was just coming down. Definitely looking a bit leaner...that vein down my arm from the other day, is really starting to show.

 

[musclemaker]

Loving how thorough you are being. Keep tracking like this and your results are gonna be sick!

Keep up the good work brother!

 

[LeanEngineer]

Like said above you are doing good in this log! True shred will bring out those veins!

Sup Gang,

6/22/18: Friday morning I woke up super late to the point I rushed a shower and didn't even get a chance to take my supps. Had a pretty groggy day (I get like that when I don't squeeze in a little activity in the morning). Nonetheless I rushed home Friday night LOL took my morning supps at 6:53pm and went to the gym to destroy back.

25 min on arc trainer

5x5 body weight pull up

1x50 warm up rack pulls w/shrug at the top with just the bar
Working sets
5x3 (315)

5x12 (50, 75, 125, 125, 150)

Straight arm pull down
5x12 (55, 55, 70, 70, 75)

Superset with cable face pulls
5x12 (80, 90, 110, 110, 90)

The gym was empty at that time i breezed through all my sets. I'm not sure if the carbs and food I had during the day Friday played a role, but when the Alpha Lean started kicking in got dammit I felt like a bull. And you can see from the write up I was lifting a considerable amount of weight for a considerable amount of volume and I was just in focused BEAST mode it was crazy. I went home and had double chicken and broccoli with brown rice from my local Chinese restaurant, and even he was like what wait no fries and wings? LOL...It's the baby steps that count.

Nutrition for 6/22/18

6/23/18 UPDATE
Saturday I woke up late (on purpose) catch up on some rest. Since I had eaten so much the night before, I figured that I'd go to the gym fasted. Took my supps, and went to kill legs.

Same workout as Wednesday workout just upped the volume by one extra set. Had a great workout. Loads of energy, that great sleep made a difference.
