Training Xp

I trained throughout highschool while playing football and basketball. I wasted time in the gym though, and was pretty lazy. My senior year after football, I got really unmotivated and stopped lifting and didn't tryout for basketball. I went from 220-242 in about 8 months and finally realized how out of shape I was. Since last september I've lost almost 60 lbs and I am currently 185. I'm more confident and feel healthier. I've been training seriously for over a year now.

[JCAZ2010]

Wanted to thank Designer Supps for letting me test their new product. I'm sincerely sorry for the delay, and will try my best to make up for it with a great log. I actually started on monday, I've just been busy taking care of some things, although that is no excuse.

[JCAZ2010]

Notes:

Yesterdays workout was pretty ****ty. I've been off rag for 2 weeks, and also didn't lift last week on vacation. I felt weak, and I became extremely fatigued really fast. I honestly just didn't feel like being at the gym and was happy when it was over. Today I'm also extremely sore.

Nothing else to report.

Thanks for stoppin by guys, feel free to chime in about anything whenever. :)

[40-Yard Dash_2]

Best for last, huh?

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. :D

[CanadaBBOY]

Looks good man! keep those calories up and you'll be a beast in no time!

I was having problems with my lower back/hip flexors a couple of years ago because I was squatting/deadlifting heavy, as well as teaching spin classes. I stopped the spin classes, stopped deadlifting, and took a break from squatting and things got better. I find that due to my height squatting isn't practical. I end up with a sore lower back/hip flexors and I can't get enough weight on to really challenge myself and impose enough of a load. I switched to front squats and they feel WAY better on my back and they keep your body very straight, while allowing you to go deeper than with regular squats. The only problem is that it is really hard to hold enough weight with front squats, and going over 2 plates can be uncomfortable. Deadlifts I'm starting to do again but i'm not going to go very heavy. I'm planning on sticking to a weight where I can do 10-15 reps (just barely) and not push it much higher. I think that doing these things has helped my back/hip flexors a lot. I don't know if it will help your hip, but I thought I would share.

[OhioUstud]

[JCAZ2010]

Definitely trying to keep the cals up, I'm so full right now, jus finished a 16oz sirloin....my dad was trying to not allow me to eat it :cool:.

Thanks for stopping by. I've always had really bad back pains, I forget the scientific name but basically my spinal chord is curved more than it should be...My doc said I'll probably have really bad back problems in the future :(...

Thanks for stopping by man, there's so many to follow haha I'll stop by urs too.

[uhockey]

Self proclaimed "best for last," you have a lot to live up to. ;)

I didn't put up as much weight as usual today since my shoulder has been bothering me a bit lately but todays workout went pretty good. Didn't get that fatigued and it was pretty easy to finish up all my sets.

Not much else to report yet, no increase in acne or anything. One thing I noticed that I don't really know how to explain this but sometimes I've been getting really anxious & nervous, anyone else notice anything else like that?

[40-Yard Dash_2]

Hope the shoulder feels better soon.

[JCAZ2010]

Hope the shoulder feels better soon.

Thanks, it's getting a lot better I hurt it when I was in california. A big ass wave crushed me and my arm got like stuck in the sand and twisted akwardly haha. It's a lot better though and should be perfect by next week.

Yeah but I always get it.... prob has something to do with the insane amts of caffeine i use.


Have you noticed this before, or just while using Xtreme?

[JCAZ2010]

I've noticed it before, but it seems a little more prominent since I've been on xtreme, I think it might have just been because I've been really tired lately. I felt fine yesterday after I got a good 8 hours of sleep.

I can't really explane it with ActX, except maybe a weird reaction to R.R. Possibly some thyroid modulation due to SHBG binding leading to increased effect at the beta receptors of stims.

With stims it is clearly expected.

[JCAZ2010]

Nothing special to report, I have work today and may/may not do cardio tonight, I most likely will because I've been cheating a lot this weekend.

Anyways here's a clip from the best comedy since break up.

Agreed, this movie is everything you'd expect and more.

It's defintiely worth the 8 clams, but if you want to watch it for free pm me and I'll send you a link.

[JCAZ2010]

Sorry for not updating yesterday, I work akward shifts (like 130-10) so I'm busy in the mornings doing chores and trying to workout. Anyways here's my workout:

115x8

Notes:

Yesterdays leg workout was a really good one, my legs are killing me now, but felt pretty powerful during my workout.

I noticed some people have been doing 1 week updates but I don't realy have any huge updates yet, although there's been a couple things I've noticed:

-Increased oiliness, and small increases of acne in my face/shoulders.
-I guess you could say my libido is up, at work I've caught myself flat out staring at chicks for a long ass time.
-I've also feel like I'm under a lot of stress or something, and have had some moments of anxiety.

Other than that not much, I forgot to weigh myself yesterday so I'll get a weight update after my workout today after work.

[nni]

that is not increased libido, that is just you being creepy.

Comeon man what would you do if you saw this everyday?

I forgot to mention that I work at a grocery store in the deli. (yes handling meat all day) :p

i would probably be able to create a store brand liverworst from my own vomit.

Sorry for no update yesterday. I was playing bball with some friends and I landed on my friends foot and rolled my ankle pretty bad. I decided to just take yesterday off and hit the gym again.

Notes:

Todays chest workout was better than last weeks but still not amazing. I was happy that I was able to do 75x6 on the DB chest press because I usually get weaker when I switch from dbs or bbs. Strength and endurance was pretty good overall, disappointed that I'm down to 184 :(.

[JCAZ2010]

Are you able to walk, or on crutches?

Yah I'm fine, I can walk, it's just painful when I put weight on it so I decided that leg pressing or squatting wouldn't be the best idea.

Good call. Listen to your body.

[JCAZ2010]

About to do some cardio, nothing special to report. My last couple workouts have been pretty good though, and I'm noticing some fullness in my muscles, not sure if this is an effect of xtremem or not...

Gonna do shoulders today, I'll have that workout posted in a like 3-4 hours.

Really good workout yesterday. It was nice to get back up to my old PR of 65x6 for my regular shoulder press. It was also nice to not have any akward pains in my neck/back when I was doing the front raises. I was at 189 today, so I'm pretty excited right now. Hopefully the weight stays on and isn't water weight.

[Big_Tom(tk)]

Looks good man! Im finally up some weight myself. The appetite AcTX gives you me is insane.. I can not stop eating some days.

By then your body will have gotten used to the new test levels, so it shouldnt be an issue.

Well I've already noticed that my skin isn't as oily as it was. I've been eating a lot more sugar in my diet lately so this could also be a factor....

Notes:

Good workout today, I'm slowly but surely getting back up to my old squatting numbers. My legs are worked right now, everyone should try doing a little starmaster after a leg workout.

2nd Week Updates:

-Oiliness has gone down, but still an increase in acne.
-Libido still incredibly high.
-Haven't had any more anxiety/stress moments
-Strength steadily increasing, weight is up.

Really happy that I'm up weight now. 3.5 lbs in 2 weeks is pretty impressive. I'm pretty sure it's not waterweight because I've been over 198 the last 2 times I weighed myself.

Notes:

I was disappointed in yesterdays workout. Partly because I was rushed because the Y was closing, and partly because I was expecting more strength wise. I was up to 191.5, but this was later in the day after dinner so I don't know how useful that is.

Going to they gym and should be back with another update.

Back to school, what're you studying?

Glad the second workout was better. We aim not to disappoint. :)

Yes back to school :(. I honestly probably have more free time at home than I do at home because I work 40-50 hrs a week. I'm in pre-pharmacy right now but thinking of switching to sports medicine with a minor in nutritional sciences.

Notes:

Another good workout today. I usually don't look forward to shoulders because I rarely have strength increases or get pumps. Usually I just feel like I've wasted time after a shoulder workout. Today was different though, I had some good pumps, strength/endurance was good and my shoulders felt worked afterwards.

[40-Yard Dash_2]

Shoulder pumps, quite impressive. :)

[JCAZ2010]

Ok finally back and running. Between getting ready to go back to school, and my ****ty ISP, I've been having problems. Anyways, I didn't do legs on monday because I played 5-5 bball full court for about 2 hrs :cool:. Here's my chest workout from yesterday. Today I'm just doing some sprints in my backyard.

Notes:

Really awesome workout yesterday. Finally nice to see some strength gains. I through in a couple new lifts and didn't go over the top with weight, but I still had some amazing pumps. When I was doing dips I felt like seeing how many I could pull off, and I did 20 which is a new record for me. Afterwards my tris were done.

3rd Week Updates:

-Acne & Oiliness has subsided.
-Libido always high.
-No more stress/anxiety.
-Strength finally increasing, weight is still up
-Haven't noticed an increase in appetite, I'm always hungry anyways :D.
-Noticing that I'm leaning out a little, and my muscles feel harder/fuller.

Notes:

Very unusua pumps today. After my first set my arms were already jacked. My abs are also on fire today. It seriously felt like I was back on NO limits today. Other than that no much else noticed. I'm thinking of mixing it up a bit on my lifts, I feel like I'm plateauing. It's like the lifts aren't extremely hard, but I can't go up any more weight and get the reps I'm looking for :(.

I think we need to see some ActivaTe Xteme + NO Limits logs. :)

What classes ya taking in school this quarter/semester?

That would be a pretty bomb stack.

Chem 2nd semester, Calc 2, microbiology 2nd semester, physics 101, and then some humanities crap with some labs. This semester is gonna suck, at least I don't have Ochem yet.

[uhockey]

Biochem sucks worse than Ochem in undergrad, IMO. Medical Biochem is good, though.

Notes:
Really nice workout to end off on. Some nice pumps in my chest, and the workout overall was just really good. I'm not feelign the doms today, which is kind of surprising because usually when I have big chest pumps it hurts like hell the next day.

Anyways, this is my last workout on activate xtreme. Thanks to everyone who stopped by, my final review should be up sometime today.

Trial length (weeks): 4 weeks

Beginning body weight: 185.5
Beginning body fat % (approx): 12.5

End body weight: 190.5
End body fat % (approx): 12.0

Weight difference: +5lbs
Body fat % difference: -.5

Give a basic description of your training and dietary approach:

Basically did sets of 10x8x6 for every lift while doing split body parts every day. My diet was on average +500 cals above maitenance. I was eating pretty clean though. Most of the added cals were from eating more lean meat.

Please note any effects the product had on:

Strength

Some small increases in strength. It felt overall like my workouts were better, and some of my lifts felt easier, but I didn't increase my weights too much.

Rating (1-10): 6

Energy

Didn't notice energy boosts, but I rarely ever felt tired and definitely noticed good endurance. My muscles would get pretty fatigued my first couple workouts but then later on it's like xtreme kicked in and it went away.

Rating (1-10): 8

Mood

Most days I was in a very positive mood.

Rating (1-10): 9

Sex drive

Definitely noticed an increase in sex drive. It got even crazier than it already is for a 19 yr old :cool:.

Rating (1-10): 8

Erection strength

No real notice for improvements, it was already great before I started.

Rating (1-10): 8

Side Effects

For the first 2 weeks I had a noticeable increase in skin oiliness and acne. By the 3rd week though the oiliness was gone, and my acne was slowly increasing. I had some very weird nervous/anxious moments at the beginning of the log but they were gone after the first couple days. Other than that not very many other side effects noticed. Didn't see a increase in appetite like others noticed.

Rating (1-10): 8

Size

I put on about 5 lbs of pretty lean mass. I seriously don't understand how I went up 5 lbs, but my bf went down or at the very least stayed the same. My muscles feel harder, and I definitely look more lean/vascular. I noticed some increased size in my lats/back/biceps. My waist decreased a small amount along with my chest. Overall I'm very happy with the gains I had in a 30 day period.

Rating (1-10): 10

Overall product rating (1-10): [i]8.5

I was very pleased with my results on activate xtreme, and I would definitely recommend this as a test booster to my friends. It's very nicely priced, and did what it claimed for the most part for me, just wish I had better strength gains. Thank you very much everyone on the DS team for letting me test activate xtreme and for making another solid product.

Sorry that some are a little more zoomed in/out. I tried to keep the lighting and everything the same it's just a little hard. The main differences I noticed were in my lats/chest & bis. Definitely noticed some increased vascularity too.

Hope this final review is helpful to everyone, and thanks to everyone who stopped by at one point or another.

Thanks man, your's as well. I really do feel like I had some great gains. It looks like you leaned out a lil too man. So you're gonna just keep taking it for another bottle?

[40-Yard Dash_2]

Yeah. Last time I tried a test booster I went 4 weeks. I think it will give me a better idea of the products effectiveness with 8 weeks rather then 4. Plus I had pretty sweet improvements all around on the first 4, so I wanna see what another 4 will give me.

Cool cool, so how does activate xtreme compare to the other test boosters you've tried?
