Who Wants To Give Magnum A Shot?! (Logging Opportunity/Contest)

[Magnum Joe]

Here is your chance to log Serum!

Serum information can be found here: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/magnum/serum.html



Okay, so here it is guys. Two lucky winners will get the chance to log Serum! In order to apply for this chance, I would like if you filled out the application below and post it in this thread! (U.S. Only!... sorry )

Now for the fun part. Each winner will receive one tub of Serum, equaling 20 full workouts on the product. This should be plenty for a month of logging (as most people workout 5 or less days a week). The winners will be asked to keep a detailed log updating at least 4 times a week and to keep the link to the log in their signature.

To make this logging opportunity a little more interesting, I would like to go out on a limb and put some of my personal product on the line. Each of the two loggers on the last day of their log (or anytime during it) can videotape themselves first stepping on a scale (to show their weight) and then show themselves squatting their weight (rounded up to the nearest 5 pound increment) till failure. I will do this same thing and if I get more reps then you with my bodyweight, you win nothing. However, if you get more reps than me, you will win a mystery supplement.

Your application should be in the following format:

-Age:
-Current Height:
-Current Weight:
-Cutting or Bulking?:
-Current Supplements:
-Current Nutrition (don't need whole diet, just estimated macros are fine):
-How many days a week do you lift weights?:
-What is your biggest bodybuilding achievement thus far?:
-What is one bodybuilding goal that you hope to achieve in the near future:
-What is your favorite supplement company (no reason to suck-up, Magnum hasn't been around here for a while so I'm not expecting to many "Magnum" answers):
-Do you like the idea of the contest incorporated with the log?:
-Do you think you can beat me in the contest? :

*The two winners will be picked on February 12th unless stated otherwise later in this thread
**If I feel your log is not detailed enough or updated enough (at least 4 days a week) at any point during the log, I reserve the right to automatically withdraw you from the contest
***The mystery product may or may not be a Magnum brand product. All I can say is it will be a personal product, one that was meant for me, not for giveaway

I am very sorry but this product is intended for people 18 years of age or older so I can not even consider your application.

If you need any tips on nutrition / training though, feel free to PM me and I'll help you out.

Nah, I hope you don't take it that way. I just truly believe supplementation can be held off till 16 and for many supplements... even 18 (such as Serum).

We are talking via PM now so let's keep this thread on topic if possible.

It went down to about 185, but it's currently at about 190... I just haven't updated the bodyspace. Check out my sponsered log for my weight, I update it 4 times a week. I'm at 190 but it's been shooting up so I don't see it stopping anytime soon.

Sweet app.! Those are some impressive numbers on your leg lifts considering your weight!

[bowskie69]

ty...i don't go so heavy anymore though. my legs grow too quick(and my knees are starting to take a toll), so i do lower weights on leg days, and i squat slightly more than my bodyweight for cardio. i suppose i have good genetics for this stuff
