I just got this in the mail today, here's my unboxing:
I plan on doing a video log on this where I'll post a video diary several times a week updating you on my feelings about these products and my workouts/diet.
I am starting a new routine tomorrow as I start my first day with this stack. I'll post all the information about this routine tomorrow. I'll also be keeping a running log of my food and supplementation schedule daily.
Tomorrow when I kick this off I'll also post my current stats. As far as goals go, I'd like to increase lean body mass without packing on much body fat. This stack should last about 8 weeks. Halfway into this stack I'll be vacationing for a week but I will continue to supplement and work out.
Thanks to everyone at Applied Nutriceuticals for this opportunity!

Ok so I want to start today with an outline of what my routine will be during this stack. This is something new for me so it will more than likely change as I find out what works best for me.
Day 1: Push
Flat Chest Exercise
Incline Chest Exercise
Front Shoulder Exercise
Side Shoulder Exercise
Tricep Exercise 1
Tricep Exercise 2
Day 2: Lower
Barbell Squat or Leg Press
Barbell Lunges or Hack Squat
Hamstring Exercise 1
Hamstring Exercise 2
Calf Exercise 1
Calf Exercise 2
Day 3: Pull
Deadlift or Bent Over Barbell Row
Back Exercise
Trap Exercise 1
Trap Exercise 2
Bicep Exercise 1
Bicep Exercise 2
Day 4: Off
Day 5: Off
Then Repeat
I plan on doing 15-45 min of low intensity cardio a day. Where on lifting days I'd do only 15-20 min post workout and on off days I'd do 30-45 min first thing in the morning.
My typical diet will look like this:
5am - Morning Supplements
530am - Gym
630am - Post workout shake
715am - Solid Meal
930am- Shake
1130am - Solid Meal
130pm - Solid Meal

7pm - Solid Meal
10pm - Shake
In addition to the supplements in my stack I'll also be supplementing a multivitamin, whey protein, fish oil caps and glucosamine.
I'll update later today with a log from my first day's supplementation as well as thoughts on my workout.I make bad videos in my basement about training, which makes me an internet guru.

Today was a tough day as far as getting food in. I mentioned homemade protein bars, I made a video on how to make them. They're honestly one of the best things i've ever had.

Leg day! Got up and took 3 caps of both HGH UP and Drive about an hour pre workout. Then took 2 scoops of Lit UP 30 min before hitting the gym. I did a personal training session last night and tweaked my back. I have bone spurs on my lower spine that flare up from time to time so I went somewhat light today b/c I don't want to injure myself and be out of commission for a week or two.
Barbell Squat (just below parallel)
225x10
275x10
315x10
Hammer Strength V-Squat w/Superset of Barbell Lunge
270x12 SS 80x16
360x12 SS 80X14
450X10 SS 80X16
My quads were on fire at this point
Laying Leg Curl
185x12
200x8
200x10
INSANE pump in my hams at this point, almost painful
Standing Single Leg Curl
60x20x20
70x20x20
Hammer Strength Single Leg Calf Press
185x15
200x15
205x12
Hammer Strength 2 Leg Calf Press
270x15
285x15
290x12
I was dying by the end of my leg day. This is the first time in months that I had a whole day dedicated to legs. Usually I'd do quads and hams on different days. Going to the gym I was on a "high" from drive/hgh up/lit up combo. Felt great. Even though my back was tight I haven't had a leg workout like that in a long time. I felt like I was going to puke (in a good way). Needless to say I'm spent.
Loving this stack so far!I make bad videos in my basement about training, which makes me an internet guru.

I've been trying to play around with getting the timing down right b/c most days I lift first thing in the morning.
Right now I try to take 3 HGH-Up and 3-4 Drive about an hour pre workout. I'll then take 2 scoops of lit up 30 min later and then hit the gym. I take my second serving of drive around 2 or 3 in the afternoon and take my other serving of HGH-Up right before bed. Does that sound about right?I make bad videos in my basement about training, which makes me an internet guru.

I'm going to change the format a little where I just add in my diet to my lifting post for the day. I don't remember specifics about when I ate from yesterday so this will just be easier for me. So today is my 3rd day on my stack, my back is still really tight from the other day so I went somewhat light today:
Lat Pull Down
360x10
380x6
380x7
Seated Close Grip Cable Row Superset with Straight Arm Pull Downs
200x10 ss 65x10
205x10 ss 70x10
210x7 ss 72.5x8
Barbell Curl (went really slow and controlled on this)
95x10
100x6
100x7
Hammer Strength Iso Preacher Curl
80x7
80x5
80x7
Behind Back Barbell Shrug (this was painful but still managed to work with it)
225x12
315x12
405x12
DB Shrug
80x12
90x12
100x12
Thoughts on stack: This has really been giving me a ton of energy in the gym and outside the gym I am already beginning to feel more vascular/hard. I'm going to try to do a video update tonight.
Diet:
630am - 1 scoop protein, 1 scoop waxy maize (post workout)
715am - 4 egg whites, 1 whole egg, 1 cup oatmeal, 1 cup blueberries, 1 scoop protein
930am - 5 oz chicken, 1 cup broccoli, 1 cup peas
12pm - 8 oz grilled chicken over mixed salad w/egg whites
3pm - 5 oz chicken, 1 cup broccoli, 1 cup peas
530pm - banana and natural peanut butter
7pm - tuna and broccoli
930pm - 2 scoops whey protein in waterLast edited by BDiamond; 03-08-2011 at 05:15 AM.

I guess I forgot to set my alarm this morning and I overslept by a half hour and missed the gym. It's not a huge deal as today is my off day and I was just going to do light cardio. My back is still really tight so it's prob for the best.
My legs are sore as a mother F'er though. Which is also good b/c they haven't been this sore in a long time. It just tells me I killed it on leg day.
So far my day has looked like this:
530am wake up, 4 caps of drive
630am - 4 egg whites 1 whole egg, 1 cup oatmeal 1 scoop protein 1 cup blueberries.
930am - 2 scoops whey protein in water
1130am - 2 ground chicken patties over mixed vegetables
130pm - 2 ground chicken patties over mixed vegetables
330pm - 1 scoop protein, 1 cup oatmeal, 3 tblspoons natural pbLast edited by BDiamond; 03-08-2011 at 02:49 PM.

I've found most people can go fairly heavy on shrugs. For most of my pull movements I do wear straps. Some people don't like to b/c they want to work on their grip strength, but the way I look at it is, I'm training back, so I'm going to do whatever I need to do to make sure that it gets hit as heavy and as hard as possible.

I was always around 195-210 until I got a lot more educated on my nutrition and paid as much attention to that aspect of bodybuilding as I did to getting in the gym. I have a fast metabolism somewhat, where if I exercise or do cardio I get pretty lean. I'm at a point right now where I feel like although I'm at a bodyfat I'm happy with, I still feel small and could use a lot of mass. It's just tough I guess too b/c I'm taller so I don't feel as full as some other people
I took some vids from the gym today so I hope to get that video up later.I make bad videos in my basement about training, which makes me an internet guru.

I'm just coming off of a 4 day push/pull split that looked like this:
day 1 push
day 2 pull
day 3 off
day 4 push
day 5 pull
days 6 & 7 off
Very similar to the mass building for ectomorphs from scivation.

It worked great for me the last few months. Now I'm switching up something along the lines of what's outlined in post 6 of this thread.I make bad videos in my basement about training, which makes me an internet guru.
