Bammy's -White Blood- Log

[Bammy]

White Blood time! I'm hoping to get the kind of pumps from this product that enhance growth. The kind that stretch the muscle so tight, it has to grow to fill in the newly stretched fascia. I guess you can tell that I believe pumps can equate to growth.

Day 1:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 25 min. before workout

Workout - Legs

warmup - few minutes of running

Leg press
10 x 10 x 450
ss w/
Seated leg curl
10 x 10 x 150

seated calf raise
3 x 12 x 115
ss w/
swiss ball crunch
3 x 12

Last night I got 4 hrs of sleep (term papers). Almost didn't go train but I am stubborn. We did leg press instead of squats because neither of us was in any condition to get under a bar. Here is what I noticed: By set 10 I had a cramp-like pump in my vastus medialis. It was the type of pump that I usually get in my calves after at least 6 sets of calf raises. Not normal for my quads. I can't say if it is from White Blood or doing 10 sets of leg press. I'm excited for future workouts to see if this keeps up.

I hope so too! Thanks for having so many testers, that says something about your faith in your products.

Day 2:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 25 min. before workout

Workout - Lower back & abs

warmup - few minutes of running

Deads:
10 x 135
8 x 225
8 x 255
8 x 275
6 x 370

Tri sets of:
incline rev. crunches
3 x 15
cable crunches
3 x 11 x 190
swiss ball crunches
3 x 10

Haven't done any deads in a while so I added them in on my "rest" day. I'm not following this GVT routine too well b/c there is so little variety and I need more frequency and I miss going heavy. I think one more week of this and I'm going back to my old split.

Anyway, I definitely got a full and painful lowerback pump going on by the 4th set of deads, but this is pretty typical. Abs may have been a little more pumped up than usual. Tomorrow is delts and traps. It will be easier to guage a pump with those muscles.

[Bammy]

Day 3:

morning weight: 176

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 20 min. before workout

Workout - Shoulders

Smith machine shoulder press
3 x 10 x 135 -drop-
3 x 10 x 115 -drop-
3 x 10 x 95
ss w/
db laterals:
3 x 12 x 20s - drop-
3 x 12 x 15s

rear laterals:
3 x 12 x 20s

bb shrug:
10 x 135
10 x 185
10 x 185

db shrug:
12 x 43s
12 x 43s
15 x 43s

White Blood definitely kicked in today. A word of advice: don't do lots of drop and super sets while using this stuff. It hurts so bad. My delts were so pumped they just really hurt, kind of like when you get that painful lower back pump that makes you want to stop doing whatever was causing it. My delts easily looked the biggest they ever have during and after this workout. Also, the veins in my delts (especially the right side) were popping almost as much as the ones in my biceps. I like it. However, strength was not up at all.

this is similar to the third time I used white blood, the pump I had in delts was so big it hurt. cool, keep up the log.

Day 4:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 25 min. before workout

Workout - Tris & Bis

CGBP
10 x 10 x 135
ss w/
bb curl
10 x 10 x 65

V bar press-down
3 x 12 x 95
ss w/
alt. db curl
3 x 10 x 28s

Bis got a pump going around my third set. By the end they were very tight. A little pain when I flex the bis, but not as bad as delts yesterday! Tris, nothing special. As I'm writing this its 35 min. after my workout and I still have the pump. Also noticed more vascularity in areas I didn't even work. The veins that were just starting to become visible with NOS Ether are now getting beigger and more extensive.

Also, the pump I'm getting is a swollen, big looking pump, but not defined looking pump, if you know what I mean. Definition seems less right now, but I look bigger.

[Bammy]

Oh, and on a side note, on the way to the gym, a chewed-up chicken breast still on the bone came falling from the sky and landed on the hood of my car.

Yeah, cant stand those flying rats. something like that would make me hungry though and I would need to get some popeyes.

Day 5:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 25 min. before workout

Workout - Legs

Leg press:
9 x 650
10 x 650
13

Sissy squat:
20 x +35

SLDL:
3 x 12 x 155

seated leg curl:
18 x 180

glute-ham:
6

seated calf raise:
3 x 16 x 115
ss w/
45 degree calf raise:
3 x 14 x 90

8:30min. run on treadmill

This leg workout sucked. I started doing squats and at the bottom I was getting a pain in my hip flexor area at both legs. It hurt too much to squat. I have been feeling a little pain in there the past few leg days and today it was too much. Its like something in the joint is getting crushed at the bottom of the squat. ??? Anyway it sucked to not squat, but everything else went well. Nice quad pumps again.

The cardio: After a few minutes of that, I had such a huge pump in my legs, especially my shins. They started to get very heavy and it made running a lot harder than ussual! I cut that short a little because the shins were getting so pumped that I wasn't running right.

I feel and look fuller than ussual today, I guess thats a nice little side effect.

[Bammy]

Day 6:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 25 min. before workout

Workout - Chest & tris

Incline bb press:
3 x 7 x 135

flat db press:
10 x 58
10 x 58
8 x 58

Tri set of:
low cable fly:
2 x 10 x 35
mid cable x-over:
2 x 8 x 45
high cable x-over:
2 x 7 x 50

Behind back press down:
3 x 12 x 150

1 arm overhead extension:
2 x 7 x 40

lunge-stange rope ext.:
2 x 8 x 100

1 arm cable extension (pronated, supinated)
2 x 9,3 x 40

bench dips:
38

I have missed my workouts of putting chest and tris together. Very good workout and solid pump. The feeling of the pump is more dramatic than the look. The muscles feel very tight. I'm noticing, again, that after my workout the muscles that I worked have less definition. My triceps, for example, were swollen so much that the horseshoe cut on the lateral side was hardly visible. Also, the v-shaped cut in the long head disapeared too. They are so pumped up that they temporarily lose definition. This is opposite of what I experience when I take something that contains vanadyl sulfate, which brings out definition and separation. Is anyone else noticing this?

[Bammy]

Day 7:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 25 min. before workout

Workout - Back & bis

Deadlift:
8 x 225
8 x 295
8 x 335
8 x 370

cable row:
3 x 8 x 150

1 arm pulldown:
3 x 10 x 110

bb curl: (recently adding these may be why my elbow hurts)
7 x 70

EZ bar curl:
2 x 7 x 70

1 arm preacher:
3 x 6 x 25

alt. bd curl:
12 x 33s
20 x 28s
20 x 28s

Well I am just full of overuse injuries. I tried wide grip pullups, hammer grip and underhand, and all felt terrible on my right elbow. I hope this and my hip flexors heal up soon. Pullups and squats are damn important exercises. Got a great pump in the biceps, and didn't even do forearms because they were so pumped already.

[Bammy]

Day 8:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 20 min. before workout

Workout - Shoulders & cardio

bb press:
8 x 95

db press:
6 x 58s
6 x 58

3 x 12 x 25s

bb shrug:
3 x 11 x 185

db shrug:
13 x 53s
13 x 53
13 x 53

1.4 mi. HIIT cardio

The delts got pumped but not the excruciating pump that I first experienced. Traps felt really good too. You can feel the targeted muscles working very well on White Blood. Cardio was tough again because of the shin pumps I was getting, but not as bad as last time.

bammy, im excited to see how you compare this to NOS ETHER (althouhg i would imagine its no comp, diesel kicks ass)

controlled labs, why only a 2 gram serving size and like 10 ingredients, this seems like an underdosed formula bro, especially with each 2 cap serving costing 1$, lastly im still skeptical of every supp now being ethyl ester. Peace.

esterized ingredients take a smaller serving to be effective than many are used to with hcl and akg versions. it is a 3 capsules serving and is 27.95 here for 30 servings which lasts an entire month, much cheaper than most NO products, and as you can see, very effective. the first two ingredients, the AEE and OEE make up the majority of the formula, the antioxidants require small doses to be effective, as most know.

lets let the logs speak, we will see soon how effective the product is.

seated calf raise:
3 x 17 x 115
ss w/
leg press calf press:
3 x 12 x 180

Felt good with the squats. Not making any PRs yet but hopefully next leg day. I of course had a crazy lower back pump from sldls. Also I noticed something weird with my calves. On my first set, they would cramp up at the top of each rep, and I could feel the cramp stay until about half way down. It was a cool feeling, not the kind of cramp that hurts. Right now I see a little more size on my calves than ussual (but they are still by far my worst body part).

1 arm cable extension (pronated, supinated)
3 x 8,5 x 50

lunge-stange rope ext.:
3x 10 185

bench dips:
40

Very nice workout. Strength seems to be increasing. Again, I got a huge tricep pump, but I lost all definition there and it just looks like a slab of meat.

So I have noticed that with White Blood my delts seem to get more defined when I work them and my tris less. I wonder why.

[Bammy]

Day 11:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 20 min. before workout

Workout - Back & bis & forearms

Deadlift: (went light because I'm easing in to using a staight bar, as I had been using a trap bar)

8 x 225
8 x 275

chins:
10, 9, 7

behind back wrist curls:
3 x 8,8 x 150 (8 rolling to fingertips, then 8 with a tight grip)
ss w/
reverse bb curls:
3 x 10 x 60

I am really increasing strength on my bicep exercises, thats good news. The pump is still good, I love the way I can make it hurt when I squeeze at the top of db curls. Vascularity is pretty good with this stuff too, definitely greater than ussual. My elbow was good enough to do chins, but not wide grips yet.

Morning weight: back down to 175. Having trouble maintaining since I came home from the apt. a few days ago. Food schedule was totally disrupted.

Yesterday:

3 x 13 x 25s

bb shrug:
3 x 11 x 195

db shrug:
13 x 55s
13 x 55
13 x 55

Sorry it took me a day to update this. I didn't get home till today. We went to a concert yesterday and got caught in a huge monsoon. Yesterday's workout was short because of time restraints. I feel strength is still increasing well, and the pumps I am getting are still very full.

I am planning to do legs today but am not expecting much because I'm tired.

[Bammy]

Day 13:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 30 min. before workout

Workout - Legs

warmup: treadmill

ATG Squats:
8 x 145
8 x 195
8 x 215
6 x 235

Leg press:
9 x 660
9 x 660
13 x 660

SLDL:
3 x 12 x 175

Standing leg curl:
11 x 60

seated calf raise:
3 x 18 x 115


My previous best for squats was 225 x 8, last leg day I got 225 x 7. Today i got 235 x 6. Thats a nice increase. I think this is first time I got a pump in the glute area from SLDLs, but I was able to get in 3 sets without my lowerback hurting too much. Like I've said before, being able to feel a strong pump in an area, like this product provides, really helps to know that you are targerting the right muscle(s).

I don't know how I manage to have good workouts on sleep defecits. Maybe it just hurts the recovery of the muscles I worked the previous day.

V bar press down:
3 x 12 x 100

Thats all. I didn't have much motivation today because I'm going to be spending the summer w/out my fiance. Careers sent us different places. Strength increased, but I just didn't fel like doing any more tris lifts.

[Bammy]

Day 15:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 20 min. before workout

Workout - Back & bis & forearms

Deadlift:
8 x 185

reverse bb curls:
3 x 11 x 60

Great workout, great bicep and forearm pumps. I am getting used to the str. bar DLs pretty quickly. Strength is still rising nicely for the most part. The pump in my bis lasted almost an hour! I think my favorite part of this product so far is the enhanced feeling of muscle contractions. Especially toward the ends of sets, I really feel that muscle contract.

[Bammy]

Day 16:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 20 min. before workout

Workout - Shoulders

bb press:
8 x 95
8 x 115

cable laterals (nautilus):
3 x 8 x 80 + drop

bb shrug:
3 x 10 x 205

db shrug:
3 x 12 x 60

The pump intensity has been kind of hit and miss for delts, but it depends on what the workout looks like. Traps felt great, they have been getting an awesome tight feeling at the very top during workouts.

[Bammy]

Day 17:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 30 min. before workout

Workout - Legs

warmup: treadmill

ATG Squats:
20 x 145
20 x 145

Leg press:
3 x 7 x 670

seated calf raise:
3 x 18 x 115

Every once in a while I do a lighter, high rep squat workout to keep from stalling. 20 rep squats. These make me feel like puking everytime I do them. Kind of ruined the rest of the workout because I skipped all my ham work. You can bet my quads were pumped though. Calves are growing too.

[Bammy]

Day 18:

Pre workout: 3 caps (full serving) 25 min. before workout

Workout - Chest & tris

3 x 11 x 185

1 arm press down:
3 x 7-5 x 50

Very solid workout. Triceps were very pumped and tight. Its really a swollen feeling. I got a comment that my arms "used to be smaller and cut but now look more massive."

It was another one of those days when my forearms were just so pumped from bi work that I skipped working on them. I have been in a good flow with my training lately, everything is feeling good. Deadlifts are going great too. I guess I was so into it that I wasn't feeling pain, because when I got back to the locker room I noticed blood dripping down my shin. My lower back has been pumped ever since I lifted, which has been about 8 hours! My muscles just feel tight and full for a long time after workouts.
