Some notes I would like to share. So today I will officially finish my first bottle of Burn24 and have to say I am happy with the results I have gotten so far and am excited to see what 2 more bottles of this stuff can do. Also, today is Day 4 of Erase Pro and I havent noticed any joint paints or anything yet but when I woke up this morning and looked in the mirror I do feel like I look more dry and leaned out. However, again its to early to see and I do have two bottles of Erase Pro so i will be doing the full run.
Does anyone know when Erase Pro really starts to kick in?

So just some quick updates on what I have been observing and changing.
I am very happy currently with my strength and shape changing however I am not really happy with my weight loss and really have not lost any fat especially around my stomach. I dont blame this at all on the Burn24 and more so on my diet and feel that I need to switch things up a bit and focus somewhat on fat loss.
So starting from tomorrow I will be carb cycling and basically will have low carbs all week and then will carb load on Friday and Saturday. On top of that I am going to reduce my cals somewhat.
As far as Erase Pro goes it definitely is working as I am drier in the mornings, I definitely have had increased acne (I never have had acne except for when hitting puberty but other than that I have never had it and now I am having a small breakout on my forehead) also my bones are starting to get a little achy (nothing too bad). My strength has definitely gone up and I do feel like I have more energy during my workouts and feel like recovery is slightly faster.
So, starting today it will be the start of week 6 of Burn24 and Week 3 of Erase Pro and I want to take more advantage of the benefits they provide. I feel like even when I start carb cycling and reducing cals that my strength will still go up and I will still put on some muscle.
Carb Cycling starts tomorrow and I will be posting diet information from now on with every update and I will not be doing these weekly updates and will get back to daily updates.

Hey Haiz glad that you could chime in here, your presence is always appreciated. So I remember from our private messages you recommended I try carb cycling and thats why I am finally going to give it a try. I really want to take more advantage of the Burn24.
My tolerance to Burn24 is great (by that I mean that even when taking 3 pills and not eating for a while I still dont get hypoglycemic) so I really am excited to see how the carb cycling + Burn24 will workout.

Good luck with your stack OP. There is something to the Burn 24 and PES Alphamine Stack. I have been using both products for a couple months now and have had great results so far. I had plumped up to 212 before I started the stack and now am down to 198 and my body fat is down from 18% to 17%. I have even had additional re-feed days during this time but always remembered to take the Burn 24 before those big meals. I should not be down 14 lbs but I am...awesome stuff! All the while not losing any strength...very happy!
Well meaning, elderly man with a poor memory...pause

Hey guys here with another update. So I took Wednesday off because I was kind of feeling a cold coming on so I didnt go to the gym and just rested and followed the same supplement schedule but finally went low carb on my diet plan.
Here was my workout from Thursday
11/6/2013 - Biceps + Triceps + Forearms
Burn24 (3 pills with breakfast and 3 pills with lunch)
Erase Pro (1 pill upon awaking)
Diet: 240g Protein, 47g Carbs, 125g Fats, 2273 Cals
10 min treadmill warmup (5.5 incline, 3.5 speed)
Dynamic Upper Body Stretching
So before I post my results I wanted to throw in another shock program and this time I followed the one and only Austrian Oak's (ARNOLD BABY!!!) superset program.
Bicep + Tricep
1. Barbell Curls + Skull Crushers w/EZ Bar (7 sets for 7 reps for each exercise, 90 sec rest per superset) - 65x7+45x7, 65x7+45x7, 65x7+45x7, 65x7+45x7, 65x7+45x7, 75x7+55x7, 75x7+55x7
2. Incline Hammer Curls + Lying Tricep Extensions (4 sets of 10 reps for each exercise, 60 sec rest per superset) - 40(20)x10+40(20)x10, 40(20)x10+40(20)x10, 50(25)x10+50(25)x10, 50(25)x10+50(25)x10
3. Standing Dumbbell Curls + Tricep Pushdowns w/Rope (4 sets of 25 reps for reach exercise, 30 sec rest per superset) - 30(15)x25+10x25, 30(15)x25+10x25, 30(15)x25+20x25, 30(15)x25+20x25 (OMFG were my arms on fire and I had the hugest pump my arms have ever produced which I knew could only be good.)
4. Dips - BWx15, BWx13, BWx10, BWx8, BWx7
5. Seated Bicep Curl Machine - 80x12, 85x8, 85x8, 90x7
Forearms
1. Reverse Wrist Curls w/EZ Bar - 25x22, 35x12, 35x12, 45x7
2. Individual Dumbbell Wrist Curl - 15x30 (per arm), 25x30 (per arm), 35x20 (per arm), 45x15 (per arm)
3. Behind the Back Wrist Curl - 80x25, 100x16, 120x10
Extra: So I've decided on my arms days to do some extra back work, nothing to taxing just for reps to help my back develop a little faster so I can increase my pullup strength and start doing them. My pushup and dip strength/stamina has greatly increased but im still lagging with pullups/chin-ups
1. Lat Pulldowns - 35x25 (wide grip), 42.5x15 (under hand), 50x10 (regular grip), 50x8 (wide grip)
2. Scapation Face Pulls w/Neutral Grip + Rope - 25x20, 30x15, 35x12, 42.5x8
So I really liked supersetting my arms as it definitely gave my arms the burn and massive pumps and it does greatly reduce time. So for the next couple of weeks im definitely going to superset my arms day but obviously will switch up the routine. Also, I made one mistake and that was not alternating if bicep or triceps would go first for the next superset. As you can see from my results I started all with biceps which according to Arnold's program is wrong. So Ill keep that in mind next time and that will probably help me to push a little more as well.

So just some updates so far. Tomorrow I will finish my first bottle of Erase Pro and give a little review of what I think so far and I will be halfway through my 2nd bottle of burn24.
Today is Chest + Triceps and I will be returning to my normal routine of a mix of volume + heavy weights but I really did enjoy the 7 for 7 and will return to it later on. However, I have really come to the conclusion that I really need to incorporate morning cardio to lost this stomach fat and chest fat. I really have not dropped much fat even with my diet and the Burn24 + Erase Pro (more like recomping). So tomorrow I will be starting Alphamine and morning cardio which will be about 20mins of power walking/jogging + 10mins of Jump Roping. I will also be stretching a lot more because im coming to the point were my deadlift and squat are starting to suffer because I am still stuff. So I will continue doing dynamic stretches pre-workout however I will be doing static stretches when after morning cardio and before I go to bed.
I will be updating my stats and post up pics tomorrow as well.
If anyone has a better idea for morning cardio please let me know. I am trying to reduce the loss of muscle mass as much as possible.
