I was just wondering how the stack worked for you? Did you see results quickly or over a longer pd of time

spidey232 · 01-25-2009, 07:10 PM

so i've been using the Hydroxycut hardcore and i love it. anyone know another supplement that goes well with it?

madles · 01-25-2009, 07:12 PM

how quick do people see results from their supplements? Is it a whole tub or is it over a couple of weeks? Planning a grueling back work out tomorrow. Dead lifts, chins, rows then we will go from there. Funny there is never a line at the chin up bar or the dead lift platform. Why is that. don't people want big backs.

com on dunt say that broo i play football too in ny here in like 2 different leauges and recenlty my shoulder has went to bad to terrible pops out of its socket on any hard impact its terrible but i am going to give up football for the contest and i been doing only machines and cables for shoulders and strecthing it greatly and i am finally adding fre weights in it again and you can still hit all your body parts that can work out hard and diet and cardio is the way of getting ripped so u should be fine man i know how it feels being hurt bro but just make up for the lack of traning with perfect eating and your body will heal even beter and look niceer

As long as it hurts, you know you're not dead.

Take it easy for a couple of days and come back HARDER!!!!

TRANSMIGRATION · 01-26-2009, 07:45 AM

I wonder if any one has already dropped from the contest... I'm sure most will drop from the contest in February if they are going to. I was in last years contest and I dropped, not to sure when though, lol.

Saturday and Sunday I did 200 Minutes of cardio for a total of 2000 Calories or more. I had a hamburger at Applebees, felt guilty so I did 50Min Cardio Saturday and Sunday Morning (Total 100Min) and 50Min Saturday and Sunday Night (Total 100Min) = 200Min.

Anyone else have a falling out yet?

willymongo · 01-26-2009, 07:48 AM

Good Luck

graffalanamous · 01-26-2009, 08:09 AM

Hey guys dropped another 2 pounds and my waist is definitely still coming down. I will keep posting pictures every thursday night. This helps me stay motivated because I hope to see changes from week to week. I also think it would be cool to put together a picture thing where I can show how my transformation progressed from week to week. Keep after it!

hidden_fist · 01-26-2009, 08:26 AM

been working through a cold the last 3 or 4 days, lifts are going strong but cardio is hindered, been reduced to walking because of lung congestion. i hate to sit out when i've been going so strong, every day for 3 weeks now. it doesnt seem to be making it worse so i figure i'll keep rockin and rollin.

Damn, your sick again. What the heck are you doing to get sick so often, jogging in the cold? Well, get better.

Congrats on the steady weight drop--2 pounds a week is just right. I went to look at your pics, but the "progress pics" was empty. I thought that was where we were supposed to post them.

I have only posted my starting pics in the progress section and from what I understand pictures don't show up in that section until they have been entered on seperate dates. I've just been putting them in the regular photo section.

I don't see any way to remove ourselves from the contest. Once we fill in that entry form, buy the product and post before pictures, they won't know until the last day who's still in. We don't even know all the competition, since we're not required to join the bodygroup or post in the forum.

I don't know if it's the ONLY way...
but...

access the progress pics thru the EDIT BODYSPACE...
Manage Progress Pics....

Then you can put them there for sure!
They would all be entered on the same date.... but one at a time!

Okay... you can do it DIRECTLY from the BODYSPACE page by
going down to the area that shows progress pics and clicking on the
little EDIT spot in the upper-right corner!

Either way, you DEFINATELY want them in the PROGRESS section

These are it for my progress pics I got my work cut out for me but Im up for the challenge. NOW LETS TRAIN HARD!

lil4klift · 01-26-2009, 01:15 PM

All I needed some motivation this year and it seems to be it. I will be doing my start pix this weekend. Currently I am about 212 but wasn't able to start Jan 1 due to rehabing knee surgery but I am back now. I plan to reach my all time best and won't stop till the Lone Star the first weekend of June. I think I should get around 170 +/- depending and I don't plan to let anything get in the way even though I work a full time job and PT part time 2-3 hours after work.

fitclubmom · 01-26-2009, 01:29 PM

Hey everyone,

I just got my "before" photos posted on my profile page. I see a lot of people have them posted on the board too... should I post them here as well?

I am now entered into this contest as well as the Hydroxycut Max contest. Double motivation for me :-)

Thank you :-). I am ready to "bring it"!

Capttoga · 01-26-2009, 03:06 PM

Today I didn't want to workout. But I did and feel better for it. Remember getting to the gym is half the battle. After lifting I hit cardio I've been running on the treadmill but today my motivation to run was near zero so I mixed it up and tried a ellipitical and had a great workout. Don't be afraid to mix it up. As long as we move forward we're no longer sliding back. Good luck!

OldManSkinny · 01-26-2009, 04:09 PM

I've been bulking since Nov. 1, so now's the turning point. Here are the "before" shots for the competition. They show me at 180 lbs and 13% body fat. That's the heaviest I've been since my first transformation back in 2001, but I was at 30% body fat then. My goal for the contest is to lose the body fat--down to 4 or 5%--and keep the hard-earned lean muscle mass from my bulk. I'll keep you informed here and give a detailed account in my bodyblog and on my bodystats.

philsever · 01-26-2009, 04:37 PM

Had a killer day one - chest, tris, and cardio. I was amazed that I haven't lost too much strength in the three-four months I slacked off. Hope all is going well with everyone. SHED THEM POUNDS!

I have not tried that stack in particular. I am sorry if I made it sound like I tried that stack before. I have not. But I know that No-Explode has about 100 mg. of caffeine per 1 scoop. And the Gakic has about 400 mg. caffine per 8 tab. serving. If you combine the two that could just about screw you up. But as far as the stack goes I have heard some good things about it , I will try it before this contest is over. As far as quick results go you probably already know but the biggest thing is to eat clean every 2 to 3 hrs. That will keep you anabolic and that will give you the quickest results. Good luck!

madles · 01-26-2009, 05:55 PM

awsome back workout today. This morning I did 30 min on the eliptical and then some abs. Tonight I did my rack lifts heavest yet (295 for 4), wide grip chins body weight only, close grip chins with body weight, bent over rows and then some long range rows with a rope felt good. No weights tomorrow only morning aerobics. Have a work meeting at night. Keep lifting and moving forward.
