Sv87guS · 03-11-2009, 06:41 PM

Alright ill be getting 100 mg of caffeine in NOXplode, and will be cutting all diet soda's, energy drinks, coffee, etc... out of my diet while doing this log.

Question is: How much caffeine is in 1 serving of BetaStax?

Cuz i will be taking 2 servings of BetaStax and One Serving of NOXplode on Wout days.

So 100mg + --- + --- = ?

Sv87guS · 03-12-2009, 07:14 PM

Well tommorow is the day i start BETASTAX. Remember chime in on my diet, and exercise plan, im up for some constructive criticism!

billmosby · 03-12-2009, 08:31 PM

i just picked up another bottle at GNC...didn't even know they carried it but the salesman there really talked me into it and i had used it awhile ago and really liked it. Anyway, it says on the bottle caffeine equivalent to 2-3 cups of coffee so that probably means around 250mgs. Not sure how much is in NO Xplode but you probably want to space them out a bit.

ps: i love the energy surge i get from it.

Sv87guS · 03-13-2009, 03:39 PM

So far so good, going into my workout right now.

Hopped on the scale weighin in at 170lbs. Bodyfat said 15, piece of **** scale i know im lower than that! This picture shows im lower than that.

What would be the best way to get BF%? calipers, machine, etc... What do you guys use and like best?

Sv87guS · 03-13-2009, 05:10 PM

THOUGHTS:
It's hard to notice anything on the first day but i did notice a very good amount of energy that i usually dont have. It was a nice amount of energy that lasted all day, not hyper, no crash, just felt really good and ready to work today at work. I took my first serving at 6 a.m. and after breakfast i was up and ready for the day. Cant say i get that everyday.

CHANGES:
Just the increased amount of energy.

WORKOUT:
Went real well, did low amount of cardio today though.

Sv87guS · 03-13-2009, 05:11 PM

I must say its been a year since ive been on a fat burner and that was atrophex, im always excited to see what results supps can bring with a good amount of hard work.

TIME TO GET SHREDDED!

Sv87guS · 03-14-2009, 05:47 AM

Well today i got up early to get my betastax, breakfast, and a workout in before i head of to minot for the day.

I will not be indulging in disgusting fast food, may eat at subway, but will get a 6 inch steak sub, or steak flatbread(loaded with veggies). Probably will also eat at a steak house. Where i will get chicken Breast, or a sirloin with salad as a side. The calories might be a bit higher, mainly in the protein and fat category so ill keeps snacks lower today. Should be fine.

again any ideas for when im out on the town, where i can eat? What should i avoid? I do realize McDonalds, Burger King, Hardees, etc... should be kept to at the most every two weeks. But im not a big fan of greasy food, it messes up my tummy.

Sv87guS · 03-15-2009, 11:40 AM

Sv87guS · 03-15-2009, 11:43 AM

We were leaving thursday for a ski trip to montana, but now we are leaving wednesday, so i will have to skip the rest day tommorow so i can get the three days in before i leave wednesday. But will be continuing Supplementation, and diet schedules. Three days of skiing will be a pretty good cardio workout so. And i could use a short break from the weights, and treadmill.

Wont be posting during those days unless i happen to find a computer.

Energy is so far the best part! I have been noticing some good results in lower ab and back area. Where i have the most problems with fat storage. On my spring break trip, i got some pretty good stares when i was in the hot tub. And a few compliments, that helped my confidence a bit to.

Sv87guS · 03-23-2009, 03:03 PM

Very good energy again, and noticed great energy over my ski trip. I dont know if i enjoyed the hot tub or skiing more haaha. No skiing ruled as usual, ive been doing it for 15 years now.

DIET: was a little sketchy over trip, yesterday i had a pretty high carb day, but other than that i stuck to Beef, chicken, salads, etc.. Now im back on track today, had ground beef for dinner instead of chicken so a little higher fat content for today and tommorow. Then back to normal.

Sv87guS · 03-24-2009, 06:10 PM

qpzmide · 03-26-2009, 07:47 PM

I"m about to finish my bottle of Betastax. I'm going to be taking measurement on Saturday hopefully will be seeing some results. I will say I liked the energy better from Tetrazene Extreme that I took last year.

Sv87guS · 03-26-2009, 08:17 PM

yea so far its been real good for energy, weight loss seems to be going ok but, im thinking i might run one more bottle after this one.

Sv87guS · 03-30-2009, 05:33 AM

I wont be posting here anymore as its kinda seeming pointless. But i will do a review after Day 30. And as of right now i plan on getting another bottle and doing a nother 30 days. Its been good so far, and am really liking the supplement.

BetaStax_Rep · 03-30-2009, 07:52 PM

Awesome! Nice log and great results!

D

gamingneeds · 05-17-2009, 11:10 PM

What happened to the 30 day update? And the 60?

Sv87guS · 05-22-2009, 09:13 AM

im very sorry i didnt get this updated. But i am giving Betastax 2 Thumbs Up!!! its been thirty days since ive been on it, lean bulking now, but i definately got my summer body ready with this product. Now i need to pack on some lean mass, so no need for a fat burner. But i would to try this supp after a dirty bulk! I had a fairly low bodyfat when i started, but got under the 10 mark with this product. I say give it a shot, and it lived up to the hype.

And sorry for not updating, its nice out here now, so i usually just screw around outside, instead of sitting inside on my computer.
