Petrucci_M3's AI/DS Stack - DAA/Testopro/Triazole

[petrucci_m3]

First ever BB.com log!


My Goal:

Back in August of this year I ran a twelve week stack of DS Activate Xtreme, DS Triazole, DS Lean Xtreme and had decent results. Start weight in August was 223 lbs and by the end of November I was down 203 lbs. Throughout this run I felt great, and I continued to break stale plateaus with new PR’s. This time around I’ll be trying AI’s Testopro and adding DAA to the mix. I’m curious and slightly excited to see how this goes.

My Training Schedule:

Chest/Biceps
Legs
Back
Shoulders/Triceps
Rest
Repeat

Starting Stats:

Height: 5’9”
Weight: 208 lbs (December 17, 2011)

Diet:

I try to keep my calorie intake around 2200 to 2500 a day split up among three meals with three small snacks. Diet consists of chicken breast, tuna, veggies (green beans, broccoli, corn, carrots), thin beef steak, oatmeal, peanut butter and occasionally brown rice. Before bedtime I like to have 8 to 12 oz of 1% milk with 1 to 2 scoops of Myofusion.

Observations:
Legs felt great today which made me happy again. Last time I trained my legs was on December 9th and after a heavy session I came back home and didn't stretch afterwards was a big mistake. I bent over like a catcher would when getting into position and I felt something in my right leg near the outer part my knee stretch/pull/pop. The following week I had trouble bending over and back squats and leg presses were definitely out of the question.

Looks like next time I train legs again I'll add light squats and leg presses into the mix.

Also today marks one week while on DAA. Haven't notice too much of a change but that's expected. My first dosing I did experience diarrhea but that side effect never came back thank God. Tuesday before work I felt a slight 'alpha feeling' which I experienced while on Activate.

Stay tuned.

Observations:
What a great workout! I was fortunate enough to try a sample of Craze before it was released and cot damn I'm still in love with this stuff. Whatever DS did they dare I say 'perfected' the PWO supplement. My sweet spot is definitely two scoops.

-Insane focus
-Clean energy
-No crash
-Crazy pumps (my favorite) I've been slightly chubby my whole life and when you start to see vascularity in your arms/forearms it's an amazing feeling.

Legs were not even sore today so I'm excited to get back to normal again. Woot.

Insane stack!

Will follow very close.

Observations:
Definitely one of my favorite workouts to date. Literally, Craze is out control at times, I find myself constantly looking for that next set and at times I'm worried I'm over training. I've worked out in the past not as serious as I am now. Never did deadlifts in my life until June of this year. Started out at 100 lbs for 10 reps just to fine tune my form and learn the exercise correctly.

I then set a end of the year goal of 405 once I hit 315 lbs back in September. I narrowly conquered that goal with a few days to spared. Needless to say I felt very accomplished and on top of the world at that very moment. Next short term goal is now 405 for 5 reps.

With the constant threads of ripping your bicep tendon, I've switched my grip to hook grips again and I'm glad to see I can still pull 315 for 5. Other than that I'm anxious to get back in for another back day.

Decided to give Craze a week off to lower my tolerance. Don't want to go past two scoops that's for sure. Other than great session, can't wait to throw Triazole and Testopro into the mix this coming Saturday. Woot!

Observations:
Borderline of holy **** over training right there. What can I say I honestly didn't want to stop with the deadlifts. I can honestly say that if I could only do one exercise for the rest of my life it would be deadlifts. Hit 415 for one pull and failed on 425.

Once I hit 425 I'm going to go down to 385 - 375ish for reps and increase those. I was finally able to do 10 non stop reps with 315 which felt amazing. I remember back in September of 2011 when I first pulled 315 for the first time.

I'm using all hook grips now which has me less worried about an accidental injury on my part.

Holy deadlifts!

Hah, I seriously didn't want to stop. My favoriteeeeee exercise.

sorry to threadjack but you wouldnt happen to be a member of e46fanatics, would you?

I am, I haven't posted in a long time. I'm mainly on M3forum and BFC. But yeah that's probably me.


- I need to update my numbers from last time.

I just got back from a back sessions and holy crap the endorphins running through me feel much better than a 4 mile run. I'll also be starting up the 5/3/1 program come Monday and my legs/squats have gone back up with very minimal discomfort wooot.

Hah wow that mean's a lot dude - thank you! Glad to see I could inspire at least one person. Keep at it!


I won't log the other logs from January but I've started 5/3/1 last Monday and will keep logging the rest of this stack. Finished eight weeks on AI's DAA, and I definitely loved this stuff. I believe I have two weeks left on Testopro and Trizaole until I take a 4 to 6 week break.

I've decided to alter the program slightly and do incline barbell bench instead of flat and incorporate dumbbell bench as well.

1RM numbers

Bench (incline) ~ 226.64 (dumbbell) ~ 105
Squat ~ 260
Deadlift = 415 (1/16/2012)

Observations:
First off I switched gyms from Anytime Fitness to 24 Hour Fitness. Feels like I'm in a gym now and not just a little 'hotel like' weight room. Bars feel so much better, nice and grippy. DL's went great, I was freaking spent after the last two sets of 265 x 10. My one rep max was 415 and you're suppose to do 50% of that x 10. But to me that feels way too light (207 lbs) so I'm slowly increasing from 245 - 255 - 265 lbs (today).

Rushed for time I didn't get to squeeze in dumbbell rows, but I feel quite accomplished with this session.
