Ahhh, if only this was the way. Certain products would NEVER have even seen the light of day.

Tru Dat!

Quick question for any team scivation member..do you guys count carbs from vegetables or fiber as part of ur total carb intake for the day when dieting? Thanks

I do not count any green veggies and thus do not count it's fiber content. I also do not count the fiber in my oats or Ezekiel bread, just the 60g carbs.

Hey Marc, quick (and probably stupid) question. My Dad sees me drink xtend all the time when I'm home from school and wants to start drinking some himself. Late 50s, overweight because he eats like crap but lifts 5 times a week and has been doing it his whole life. I assume I'm being an overly-paranoid son but is there any reason to discourage someone like that from drinking xtend?

Very cool! I will start watching the episodes.

[neoquest2000]

Quake 10.0 should be damn good at it! Not saying it is better than Dialene 4x, but with Quake 10.0, it definitely gives me a more pronounced energy effect and I feel as if I can do hours of cardio and not fatigue at all.

If you like Quake 10.0, and who doesn't, the ingredients will not only be anticatabolic and enhance fat burn during cardio, but it will help you up the intensity leading to greater calorie burn and fat loss.

Yeah I like taking Quake before cardio. HIIT felt easier than last time without so I will push harder next cardio session.

[neoquest2000]

Try taking quake before studying, I had trouble leaving the damn library! Straight A Student FTW!

I might have to try this for my IT certs. The books are boring as hell and I might have a slight case of ADD.

My dad is in the exact same position. Mid 50's, overweight from eating habits, lifts consistently. Xtend is completely safe, I had my dad replace all his beer and soda with Xtend and it's made a WORLD of difference. Good luck man!

Lol that 1st video with Rob and Derek was cheesy as hell I think this will be a good series for a beginner but i'm not getting much out of it. Maybe in the following weeks it will get more advanced. I always enjoy seeing new exercises but these are pretty basic. Also, Derek you come off very monotone when you speak. Maybe you should of took some Quake 10.0 before you shot these

Rob did a nice job performing all the exercises. Overall i think someone who has never worked out or just getting started can really benefit and that's cool. I just wish it was a little more 'hardcore' for the gymrats.

[Philip81193]

JP83, I know how you feel! Haha I was expecting an in depth video with fancy terms and top secret nutrition advice illegally leaked to the public (ok, maybe not THAT extreme...) It's all good though! Marc, Derek, Rob, congrats- It's a video I REALLY wish I would've seen as a beginner, it's truly good stuff wrapped up in a presentable package.

I'm still chuckling at Derek's awkward strained voice trying to explain the basics, he sounded like it hurt him to hold back the flow of knowledge!

[Scivation]

Got my 1st container of Quake 10.0 yesterday and tried it for the first time this morning. Started with 3 scoops 30 minutes prior to my workout. I was feeling a nice tingle sensation on my skin by the time I hit the gym and I knew it was go time.

Had a great workout.......I really noticed the increased focus but the BIGGEST thing for me was I had an overwellming urge/desire to try for PRs on every lift/exercise!!!!!

Can't wait to hit the rest of my workout split now with Quake.

-JB

Quake 10.0 is the REAL DEAL and is very affordable too! Well worth is for the perfect, most anabolic workout every single time!!!

And it promotes fat loss and lean mass gain more than any other preworkout formula ever created. If you aren't using Quake 10.0, you are missing out!!

[Scivation]

Glad to see that 365x4 squat set!! Good stuff, man. How did it feel?

It felt like squatting 365 AFTER going beyond failure on leg extensions and leg press. That is the only way that I can describe it.

YES! This was a HUGE and expnsive undertaking between Scivation and BB.com and cost 10s of thousands to produce. This took almost one full year to coordinate and produce and will help tens of thousands of people reach their goals!

It can only help with alkalinity, muscle support and fat loss and will replace other caloric beverages, so he should definitely drink Xtend.

However, slap him in the face. He needs to eat better and exercise, period. We can help him if he joins Team Scivation. My father DIED due to curable and preventable type 2 diabetes. He needs to get a grip or you will lose him and trust me, it will hurt you greatly.

We have proven through surveys and research that the average Scvivation customer/Team Scivation member is FAR more advanced than the normal supplement buyer. Our customers as a majority are after results and use supplements to augment proper training and diet rather than the usual "hopes and dreams in a bottle" consumer. Thus, while basic to you, this will help TONS of people graduate to your level and get REAL results!

Haha, yeah. Having to explain to another chick (a biology student, insanely enough) that you cannot "gain too much mass" on a calorie deficit is frustrating!

I"m sorry to hear this. I am going to get right on this. Genetically type 2 diabetes runs in my family. And I remember when I lived with my parents they used to eat ice cream and junk on the couch together. I'm not gonna have that happen to him.




On another note. Quake 10 is the ****!!!!!! I loved this stuff! I did deadlifts for the first time in like 5-6 months and I pulled 225 easy for sets of like 6. But stopped cause I didn't wanna hurt nothing. And now I'm sore.

I didn't get the BA tingles. I'm assuming I'm used to it cause I used to ultra ultra megadose on the PForce BA from a while ago.


But then again I only took 2 scoops of the Quake. I'm afraid to take 4 lol. GOOD STUFF THOUGH!!! Love it!

Help Marc Lobliner and Scivation Raise Money For a GREAT Cause!


The other day, I took my four-year old daughter, Kami, to The Little Gym. Her best friend, Isla, wasn't there.

Isla has Cystic Fibrosis and was in the hospital again. Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a devastating genetic disease that affects tens of thousands of children and young adults in the United States. Research and care supported by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is making a huge difference in extending the quality of life for those with CF. However, we continue to lose precious lives to CF every day. That's why your help is needed now more than ever to ensure that a cure is found sooner - rather than later. To learn more about CF and the CF Foundation, visit www.cff.org.

On April 24, 2010, The Lobliner Family will participate in The Great Strides walk at the UNC campus to help raise money for this worthy charity.

Any donation helps. To donate or learn more, please visit http://www.cff.org/great_strides/MarcLobliner.

[LiL USMC BBer]

Haha, yeah. Having to explain to another chick (a biology student, insanely enough) that you cannot "gain too much mass" on a calorie deficit is frustrating!

I think that's with everyone. EVERYONE has the mentality. "I don't wanna lift cause I don't wanna get to big..."

They make it seem so easy. Like everyone has valves that you blow into and just inflate right up.

I'm trying to get "too big" and it doesn't happen as quickly as I'd want to.. but oh well.. That's why I'm in it for the game. If the results just came, it would take all the fun and challenge out of it.

But then again... Team Scivation makes the results "just come", and its still fun and challenging! (Not kissing arse...)

Sometimes the 'hardcore' need to be reminded that sticking to the basics is key. No secrets, just consistent diet and hard training. I definitely wish this was around when I was wasting my time with endless curls and cable crossovers.

I tried to save my father. IMO, with my mother's substance abuse and severe mental disorders, he simply just gave up on life. But if your father has a life WORTH living, which I am damn sure he does, save him NOW!

On a happier note, indeed, Quake 10.0 blows everything else away.

I think that's with everyone. EVERYONE has the mentality. "I don't wanna lift cause I don't wanna get to big..."

Usually, saying that you don't want to get too big or have "abs too ripped" is an excuse for mediocrity.

Just a normal clumping of Citrulline Malate that can happen here and there. Rob or Derek will reply. I don't post anywhere but here due to the fact that I am in a car.

Hey Marc or anyone else.........I am 4.5 weeks out from my first show. Just ran out of the vasocharge I was taking. I can't stand anything fruity flavored and was wondering if or when quake will come in a different flavor other than berry? Otherwise, I need to go ahead and pick up some more vaso. I love the orange and lemonade xtend btw!--Brian

This series is for a beginner looking to bulk. If you want my advanced top secret bulking series let me know and I will tell you where to send the check.

I WISH I had Quake when I was filming that series!!! We filmed all 60 episodes + all the workout voiceovers over a 7 day span... probably one of the hardest, most draining things I've ever done.

My advanced bulk training goes on each and everyday at the gym. I still use 666 and Pryamid training! However, if i was made of $ i would gladly write a check and have you do that kind of series! I'm fortunate of enough to have started out right with a really good PT but these videos will truly help out thousands of people looking to get started. So kudos to that! I will watch all the episodes just because it is good to reinforce things and hear them from a different perspective. Thanks for all the hard work you put in!

Hey Marc i'm not even sure if you would know the answer to this but i've tried to order more Essential FA from bb.com and other places but they are all on backorder with no ETA. Any word on that?

[Lando33]

Hey Marc i'm not even sure if you would know the answer to this but i've tried to order more Essential FA from bb.com and other places but they are all on backorder with no ETA. Any word on that?

They will all have Essential EFA in stock as of next Friday 4/16/10 at the latest.

We switched to our new "black" look labels and that caused a small delay.
