EST Thermophoria and Anarium cutting the fat!

[Anarium]

Thermophoria! Soon to be a household name in the fat burning market! But your gonna see the results right here first! That's right folks, you've got a front row ticket to the train wreck as it happens! WHOO WHOO!!

A little introduction here. I am 29, serving in the Army, and just a little over a year post op from a badly torn rotator cuff. I have only been lifting again since October 09. My lifts aren't big, but my stomach is. I am a straight shooter. Personally, I don't care if I hurt your feelings. If you don't want the truth, don't ask me.

I am currently in the Army L.P.N. program, so my days are full of anatomy and physiology, medications, and math. I freakin hate math. The gym is my relief.

I have been following The Starting Strength program since October, and am in the middle of a 2 week deload, slightly more volume, less weight. I will be transitioning back over to an intermediate type routine next week. My max lifts as of last week were as follows.

Squat: 345x2
Bench: 250x2
Deadlift: 345x2
Military Press 175x1

I train alone, no spotter, and of course I have to be very careful of my shoulder, so I try not to push to hard on bench and military press.

My current Supplement stack is:

Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey
Orange Triad
Mega Men
Creatine Monohydrate

I also have to do Army Physical Training in addition to lifting, class, and balancing a family life. I will try to post daily, but it may wind up only being on lifting days, or if I notice something exceptional.

Reps, if there is anything you'd like to see added, let me know, and I'll get it in there.

I will have measurements and pictures up this weekend. Not for the faint of heart.

subbed, ask me anytime you need any advice regarding the ThermaPhoria (or anything else related to supplementation).

[velocityrob]

In!! Lets see the good stuff.

[bigaznjeff]

Subbed'. Some good lifts for just getting back into lifting, you probably have a good base to start off with! Thank you for serving our country man

Thank you.
I was actually told today by someone that they wouldn't want me for a nurse, said I was to big. Made me feel good. I did get the Thermophoria today, so I will start the first dose tomorrow. Believe tomorrow is chest day to. Next week I should be switching back to the three days per week whole body routine. I'm excited as hell!

[SmokinFool]

In...looking forward to it

You know, I could have sworn I posted an update last night. Guess I'll add last nights on with tonights.

Question for one of the reps. What is recommended for off days? Just take it whenever?

u can take your doses whenever u want on training or off days shouldn't make a difference , just use your prefference

I usually blame Jamie when that happens.

Ah, so it was Jamies fault. If she keeps being naughty like that, I may have to spank her.

Any way, chest day (Thursday) was a good workout. I had a nice, clean energy. No shakes or anything, which I like.

Leg day (Friday) I nearly puked. It was that good of a workout. I have been feeling a little under the weather though, getting a nasty freakin cold. Looking forward to this coming week, when I go back to a 5x5 routine.

[kapitaljin]

Missed one, you guys are all over the place! haha, so many loggers, losing track.

[Anarium]

Started my 5x5 up today.
Now, I didn't feel that great, been sick most of the weekend, and felt like hammered dog crap today. I took my Thermaphoria about 30 minutes before I started lifting. Even though I felt terrible, I was able to go through the whole workout in a little under an hour. So far I'm digging this stuff. I also bought another bottle today, so I am thinking of running both bottles back to back.

I was thinking the same. It feels more like I'm recomping than cutting. Maintaining my body weight but losing fat at the same time! Feels good brah

Cool! Will you keep the log going?

I plan on it for sure. Helps keep me honest, so to speak.

that's the exact reason I run so many damn logs , I love to train but everyone has days that they are thinkin about hitting the snooze button n I'm a lot less likely to do so with an audience

[bigaznjeff]

same. helps me keep track of what I'm doing, and I actually like seeing my own progress stored somewhere

[SwolenONE]

Man i love seeing so many EST logs

it brings a smile to my face

Hell yes.
I train much better, and more, when I do a sponsored log. Between the publicity, and 'owing' the log to XYZ Pharma Tech Industries (lol), I'm in the gym and on point almost every day.

NICE!!!! agreed with the honesty..and looking forward to the continued log

[Anarium]

Well, remember when I said I wasn't feeling to well on Monday? I was ordered to go see the Dr. today. Good news is I'll be fine in a few days. Bad news is I have bronchitis and can't do anything for a few days. My apologies to EST, but I will be back at it as soon as I can.

[Anarium]

Just a small update:

The antibiotics and other medications appear to be working, as I am feeling much better. I should be back in the gym on Monday, and we can get this rolling again.

Good luck- hopefully we'll get an update Monday.

Ever had one of those days in the gym, where you thought you were gonna puke? I love those. It was my first day back in the gym since last week. this is the longest I have gone without lifting since I started up again back in October.

My working sets for squats was 280, then I decided to have A.D.D. and fuch with the routine. Went straight to leg press.

408x12
608x10
608x10

For the rest of the time I was in the gym I thought I was gonna spew. It was great.

Went to chest next, for 205 as my working set.

Like I said, this was my first day back in the gym, and of course first day back on Thermaphoria. I felt great. Nice smooth energy, no sudden increases and crashes.

Also, we in the Army, if we are overweight, get taped. I weighed 241 the other day when we had our height weight done, with a 24 percent bodyfat. I know, needs improvement. But that is an improvement. In October when I started, I was 27 percent. The good news is that 24 percent is passing for me. The better news is that we are getting taped again in 4 weeks, so I will be able to compare an actual bodyfat test. No, it's not the greatest in the world, but it is effective.
