Rebound XT -- Yup, another one

[loua65]

A little background:

I've been weight training for about six years but it was not until recently that I came across these boards. The wealth of information I've learned from searching these forums is beyond belief. Thought I would give a little back, so here is my Rebound XT LOG:

CURRENTLY TAKING:
EC cycled on and off every 2 weeks with Lipo 6
MultiVitamin
and ofcourse...whey

I am 5'11 210lbs with about 18% BF. Currently cutting to 180lbs.
Lifting Routine is a 5day split NO CARDIO .
Diet: during the cut - 1700-2000cals daily high protein moderate carbs/fats

With the REBOUND XT I will be taking a mixture of 10-15grams of flax/fish oil with each pill.

Dosing Schedule:
4 pills for 14 days
3 pills for 7 days
2 pills for 7 days
1 pill for 5-7 days

courtesy of sledge.

Starting TONIGHT May 24:
3 pills with 30 grams flax oil, 5 grams fish oil, and 1 serving Sesathin

Maybe someone can tell me this: I thought Sesathin was basically a super Fish oil...but it contains 0 FATS---does it help with the absorbtion of the Rebound at all?

[Robboe]

SesaThin is a lignan, not a fatty acid. It helps if you take SesaThin with fat also.

Good luck, and remember - there ain't nuttin' wrong with cardio. Not if you do it right. Any form of activity for at least 10-15 minutes, whether it be sprinting or BBall, just get your heart rate elevated a little and your blood flow going and you'll be suprised what effect this can take for fitness conditioning, calorie partitioning and fat loss.

[loua65]

thnx for that info.

Took my second dose this morning when I woke up:
1 cap with 20grams flax oil and 1 serving sesathin.

Nothing different felt so far.

Heading to the gym right now:
Shoulders:
Military Press 4 x 10,8,6,6
Arnold Press 4 x 10,8,6,6
Lateral Raises 4 x 10
Front Raises 3 x 10
Rear Raises 4 x 10
Front Plate Raises 3 x 10
Dumbbell Shrugs 4 x 6-8

What exactly are your goals while taking rebound xt?

[loua65]

being only 18, i figured this would be a good ph alternative -- and at $26 well worth a try.

Also, I may have a case of puberty induced gyno...(since i've never done a cycle of ph/steroid) and figured this was worth a shot

Find out if you have gyno right now:

1. Put pointer finger and thumb on opposite sides of your nip.

2. Push down 1/2 inch and squeeze fingers together.

3. If you feel a hard lump=gyno.

[loua65]

oh...I was hoping to lose about 10lbs in the month or so I'd be on Rebound while minimizing any real strength loss (I like to dream).

[loua65]

dose the lump have to be behind the nipple? There is a semi-hard lump about half the size of a grape under the nipple in my left pec, I really gotta feel around for the lump in the right pec in the same area.

[loua65]

Took 3 caps with 30 grams flax oil, 5 grams fish oil, and 1 serving Sesathin

I was curious as to whether its ok if I go to bed immediately after taking Rebound XT...is it okay to lay down immediately afterwards? I know that it works best at night while sleeping because that is when estrogen is highest, but I've been told never to lie down after taking an oral medication for atleast 30 minutes.

On a side note:
I was watching star wars tonight and all of a sudden I started feeling a tingling in my left pec (the one I thought may have had a slight case of Gyno)---if that is the case, maybe its already working?

[Robboe]

Yeah you can lie down.

Not sure whether the tingling is an effect of it working.

[loua65]

took my 1 cap this morning with 15 grams flax and 5 grams fish oil and 1 serving sesathin and worked out legs.

Tingling was going on all night before I fell asleep...was kinda weird.
----i dunno if its a placebo effect, but it seems like my left pec is hanging a little higher than normal----probably just in my mind.

Got my two bottles of lipoderm-ultra today...will be applying it to my chest starting tonight and will continue with two applications 12 hours apart for a couple weeks---hope that goes well.

Concerning the whole testosterone boost with Rebound, I feel no different...NO extra acne (although I am on some good acne meds) and my nuts aren't hanging lower than usual---no hornier, etc. If there is any difference, it may be that I have more energy all the time. I couldn't get enough in the gym today...just kept doing set after set after set and was upset I wasn't tired when I left the gym---but that may be in my mind.

Oh, if I forgot to mention, I've been on EC for about 3 weeks now.

[loua65]

just thought i'd mention I've been feeling weird sensations in my left pec (the one with the gyno)--more than just tingling...its kinda getting annoying. It might be the lipoderm, but I doubt it is since its only in one pec and not the other even though I applied the lipoderm to both pecs.

[loua65]

ok, been in canada for couple days now, thats why i haven't kept up with the log...haven't been drinking too much...only enough for a buzz every night. Kept at the Rebound XT with same doses---forgot the flax so I bought a bottle of fish oil caps...my boys cracked up as I pop 30 of those babies every night with the Rebound.

GYNO:
I am starting to believe I did have a little gyno, cause my pecs are starting to look a whole lot better lately.

Starting to get a little more acne, so a testosterone rise from the Rebound is no question now.

Haven't been using the Lipoderm at all since I got here---will start back up when I get back home.

Till then --- OH CANADA ---

[loua65]

back and pissed off...got a speeding ticket on the way back home like 10 minutes from the border.

continued same dosages.

really starting to feel the affects of the Rebound now...its definitley working.

starting up with the lipoderm again.

[delta9]

dose the lump have to be behind the nipple? There is a semi-hard lump about half the size of a grape under the nipple in my left pec, I really gotta feel around for the lump in the right pec in the same area.

I'd like to know as well, all I've heard the bump was suppose to be under the nipple. I think that if it's above or below that it's still gyno, anyone have any more info on this?

[loua65]

yea, i figured it would still be some form of gyno. Anywayz, about a lil after a week of starting the cycle, i am very pleased. I don't know if it is the Rebound or just the dieuretic effects of the lipoderm, but my Chest looks 100x better. I guess I will have to wait and see.


Still continuing with 4 caps a day (3pm 1am) and will be doing so until tuesday (2 weeks later)

[loua65]

switching up dosage today -- already finished one bottle.
starting to taper off now.

Had one cap in the morning, gonna have 2 tonight and will continue this for a week. (3 a day)

[FerrariFreak]

Just curious, what kind of fish oil and flaxseed oil do you use?

[loua65]

NOW Flax oil and Health from the Sun Fish oil

[13laze]

very good log

[loua65]

dropping dosage to two pills at night starting tomorrow night (tuesday). Will do that for another week, then finally drop down to one pill for 5-7 days to end the cycle.

Will post overal reaction once finished.

[loua65]

I felt like it was time to finally end this cycle asap, so I am dropping down to 1 cap a day a little early. Ran 4 for 2 weeks, 3 for 1 week, 2 for 4 days, and will start today (saturday night) with 1 for 3 days or so.

[Robboe]

Why did you feel the need to end early, may i ask?

[loua65]

well, acne kept getting worse, but that was only a small part of it (could give two ****ts bout acne).

Main reason was because I have another bottle here and wanted to preserve this other half for another cycle.

I will update as soon as I finish up with these last couple days...overall though, I am pleased.

[Audioslave]

Good to hear you liked it. I'm 17 and considering a cycle of Rebound XT as well.

[loua65]

with all the news about the recall, i figured i'd just throw in my thoughts:

size of the Pub-gyno did not change much...the loss in BF, about 4-5% over the course of my cutting cycle helped its appearance.

Test Boost-wise:
Acne-wise, I have a couple extra zits, but i am prone to acne.
I also noticed a slight increase in libido,
but the main effect i saw was that I am much 'fuller' now AND stronger now.
I lost about 10lbs, about 4-5% BF and either maintained or went up in my weights at the gym...

Did i mention i was using bottles from the 'bad' batch. I dunno what was in them, but unless i tricked my mind into believing it was working so much that it actually did work, the rebound xt did do something...

The only new supplements I introduced into my system while taking the Rebound were a mixture of flax/fish oil and Sesathin.

So unless Seasathin + flax/fish is the supplement of my dreams, I can't wait to try the real batch of Rebound since this 'useless' filler helped me so much.

Heck, if it is a placebo effect....GIMME MORE, I love it when my body finally cooperates and if its all natural YAY!
