~~~iLovemyLuxe's Myprotein MyPre log~~~ (^_^)

[iLovemyLuxe]

First off, a big shout out to My protein for giving me this opportunity to log their product!

Basic background:
I'm a competitive powerlifter, currently training for my upcoming meet in march. I'm 5'9 @190lb, planning to compete at 181lb. Currently cutting right now and logging all of my macros on myfitnesspal(~2600 cals, 40/40/20). It's been over a month since I last kept track of my macros so I'll be playing around with it, dropping cals, raising protein, etc.


Flavor: Sour Apple


Macro profile looks solid and has a great breakdown. Each scoop contains 200mg of Caffeine.

[iLovemyLuxe]

about to head to the gym today. I normally take Mondays off but, I wasn't able to get a workout in yesterday.


mixed 1 scoop with 10oz of water. Mypre mixes decently, with some undissolved particles settling in bottom. Has an ugly green color but the taste reminds me of a green apple jolly rancher(delicious!).

It's great. Even though it has a proprietary blend, Mypre still has solid ingredients such as, d-aspartic acid, creapure, citrulline malate, and BCAAs.

[ObiWan85]

Glad to hear you are enjoying it so much! Keep up the great work in the log buddy.

A quick look at my program.

It's basically smolov sets x reps but, spread into 4 weeks instead of 4 days.

week 1: 4x9 @70%, bench 6x6
week 2: 5x7 @75%, bench 7x5
week 3: 7x5 @80%, bench 8x4
week 4: 10x3 @ 85%

Subbed, great start to what looks like will be an outstanding log! Looking forward to your thoughts with continued use of MYPRE. Love those shoes too!

[iLovemyLuxe]

haha thanks! I just got my shoes last month. I've always been hesitant on buying shoes because of the price so my brother got me a pair for Christmas.

Finallystarting my program. I'm about 10 weeks out from my next meet.

Squat
75% 7x5 @340lb belted
Bench
70% 6x6 @225lb last 3 strapped
Cable row close grip
225lb 3x10 raw

Felt really nice at the gym today took about 1.5 scoops this time.
And was able to get some footage of my last set of squats. Couldn't grind out the fifth rep on my last set.

[iLovemyLuxe]

1/27
Took 1.5 scoops again. Still getting great at focus and enegry. Didn't get a
Pump which I don't mind but I know some people are favorable about pre work out pumps. However with me it's no concern.

Realised I was suppose to do 5x7 this week instead of 7x5. So I just followed the rep scheme just to keep consistency.

Bench
75% 7x5 @240lb, first 2 sets w/o straps
Squat
315lb 3x3, sitting in the hole working to work on bar speed and explosive movement.
Pull ups
Bodyweight 4 sets

It's great. Even though it has a proprietary blend, Mypre still has solid ingredients such as, d-aspartic acid, creapure, citrulline malate, and BCAAs.

...from the UK site, don't know if ingredients are the same though

[iLovemyLuxe]

Thanks for sharing! Didn't know they had the breakdown on their website.

[iLovemyLuxe]

1/29
Deadlifts
430lb 7x5
Hate doing heavy volume deadlifts, had to use straps but didn't use belt.
Cable rows 240lb 4 sets
Leg curls each leg 4 sets

Took 1.5 scoops felt amazing. I'm awake at 6am every morning for class and Mypre definitely gets the job done and helps keep me energized throughout the day.

1/30:
Couldn't make it to the gym on my OHP day. I just had a lot of stuff to do.

2/1:
Squat 80% 8x4 @360lb belted
I was only able to get 4 reps on my first 3 sets. I decided to drop the volume from 4 to 2 reps, which really helped me focus on form and stance.
Bench: 75% 6x5 @240lb
First 3 sets were raw.

Took 2 scoops today instead of 1.5 and wow there is a big difference! I definitely feel the full effects of the supplement with 2 servings(2 scoops). Mypre delivered with a good flow of energy and focus. I was even able to get a decent chest pump off 6 sets of bench. My second meet is now 8 week away. Since my meet is approaching I'm doing small changes to my program to accommodate my needs and weaknesses.

Super fantastic logging!

[dmndeyes]

Great update iLovemyLuxe! I agree, MYPRE is intense at two scoops. Looking forward to your continued progress and best of luck with your upcoming meet!

[iLovemyLuxe]

I plan on using 2 scoops for the remaining of my log. Thanks for the support

2/3 Deadlift

Sumo
405 raw 1x2
Strapped 455 1x1, 475 1x1
Strapped and belted 495lb

Deadlift off blocks(conventional), slow on negatives
405 1x3 raw
455lb strapped and belted 3x3

Pump ups
+70lb 1x3,4,4,4

First time doing sumo deadlifts, normally just pull conventional but I felt sumo would allow me to pull heavier. Still gotta work from and mobility but overall I have it down. Also I'm posting this from my tablet so sorry for grammatical errors.

[iLovemyLuxe]

2/5
Bench 80% 8x4 250lb strapped
Squat 75% 5x3 340lb raw
Strsight leg Deadlift 225lb 4x8 raw

Had an amazing workout today! As usual I took 2 scoops. However, I decided to fancy myself and had a chocolate muffin as a pre work out meal. Felt great at the gym, this is was the best workout I've had during this log. Can't wait to hit the gym again!

[iLovemyLuxe]

2/8
Squat 85% 10x3 380lb
(1x3,2,3,2,1,1,1,1. I wasn't able to get the entire 10x3, my knees were starting to give in around my 5th set. Gonna try it again this week.)
Bench 80% 5x5, 250lb
first 3 raw


Was a bit bummed out from the 10x3 squats. Gonna attempt it again sometime this week.

[iLovemyLuxe]

2/10 deadlifs

Sumo 495lb 1x1 belted
515lb belted and strapped 2x1
Pull ups

I'm still working on my sumo deadlift but I was able to hit a pr of 515lb for singles. My hand placement and grip are causing me the most trouble right now, so I'm going to continue improving that as well. My goal is to hit around 540lb by the first week of March. If I can't then I will most likely pull conventional at my meet.

My goal openers:
Squat ~420lb
Bench ~305-310lb
Deadlift ~530-550lb depending on if I choose sumo or conventional

Basically opening up with my last meets 3rd attempts.

[iLovemyLuxe]

2/13
bench 85% 10x3, 270lb strapped
Bb row off 4" block 225lb5x5

Bench felt nice, I mixed up my grip and speed work throughout the 10 sets

[iLovemyLuxe]

2/15

Squat 85% 380lb 10x3
1x3,3,2,2,2,1,1,1,1,1
Bench 275lb 5x1 strapped
225lb 6x3 speed raw
cable rows 240lb 5x10, last set strapped.

Tried the squat 10x3 again. Still couldn't get the full 3 reps each set but definitely improved from last time. Decided to do max effort(ME/speed) work again. Haven't used it much this prep but I'm starting ti implement it again. I'm 6 weeks out from my meet, body weight @~187lb. I've been doing a lot more mobility work since I started doing sumo deadlifts, not just for the sumos but overall longevity.

I still have a couple more servings left and I'm gonna finish this off strong!

[iLovemyLuxe]

2/17:
Bench 70% +10lb, 7x5 250lb last 3 sets strapped
pull ups +45lb 1x10,7,7
bw 3 sets

[dmndeyes]

Thanks for your continued updates brother. How are the last few servings treating you? Some new users have reported that they feel the same effects as the first use.
