My sponsered CEE HCL 3000 & CORDYGEN5 log from MILLENNIUM SPORTS

[Seroph4x]

Hey guys/girls, this is my sponsered CEE HCL 3000 & CORDYGEN5 log from MILLENNIUM SPORTS.

First up,

The Supplements:

Millennium Sport Presents:
CEE HCL 3000
ATP Endurance!

Target Response Creatine Ethyl Ester HCL For Strength!
Everyone who has experienced the "bloat" from creatine knows that creatine monohydrate is poorly absorbed by the body and rapidly converts to byproduct. Creatine's effectiveness is dependant upon the cells ability to absorb it. The poor absorption rate of regular creatine monohydrate requires the creatine user to ingest large dosages of creatine to achieve desired effect. This in turn can create unwanted side effects such as stomach bloating, water retention, and diarrhea. Creatine works by drawing water into the muscle cell. Since most supplemental creatine monohydrate is not absorbed, the unabsorbed creatine can hang outside the target cell with the water it was initially trying to draw in. The end result is the notorious "creatine bloat."

All living cells have a lipid bilayer. This is a membrane composed only of lipid (fat) molecules. This lipid bilayer is the foundation of all biological membranes, and is a prerequisite of cell-based life. Passive permeation is a process that describes the diffusion of a substance across a cell membrane through the use of lipids as transport mechanisms. Esters are organic compounds that are formed by esterification - the reaction of alcohols and carboxylic acid. The most common esters found in nature are in the fat tissue in animals. Sound familiar?

Creatine monohydrate is semi-lipophilic. This means that it inefficiently uses fat as a transport mechanism. The esterification of substances will increase their lipophilic abilities. Therefore, esterified creatine will use fat more efficiently to permeate the cell wall and exert its effects upon cellular function vs. unesterified creatine. This means absorption of esterified creatine is significantly increased, up to 30 times more than creatine monohydrate. Side effects such as the bloating, cramping, diarrhea and water retention are kept to an absolute minimum.

CORDYGEN5™

Cordygen5™ incorporates 100% organic, highly concentrated extracts of five strains & four species of cordyceps for maximum oxygen utilization, cellular energy, stamina and ATP production. Cordygen5™’s oxygen utilization enhancing effects have been touted by many users as a natural, legal and effective alternative to EPO.

Cordygen5™ is the strongest performance enhancing cordyceps product on the market and may provide up to 30% increases in ATP and up to 40% increases in oxygen utilization. Cordygen5™ is perfect for anyone who wants to increase their ATP levels but doesn’t want to consume creatine due to its common side effects. Cordygen5™ is also ideal for anyone who is a non responder to creatine products but still wants reap its benefits. The added bonus is the tremendous increase in oxygen utilization that Cordygen5™ provides. Cordygen5™ will allow all athletes, amateur or professional to break through their aerobic and anaerobic plateaus, maximizing strength and endurance. Whether you are a bodybuilder, powerlifter, martial artist, triathlete, cyclist, runner, swimmer, skier, snowboarder, hunter, climber, wrestler, golfer, tennis, football, basketball, hockey or baseball player, you’ll maximize your performance with Cordygen5™.

Cordygen5™ is a pure, solid state fermented, super potent blend of extracts from four strains and five species of cordyceps including Cordyceps Sinensis Alohaensis Hybrid, CS4 strain Cordyceps Sinensis, Cordyceps Militaris, Cordyceps Sobolifera and Cordyceps Ophioglossoides. The Cordyceps Sinensis Alohaensis Hybrid strain contains the highest HEAA (Hydroxy Ethyl Adenosine Analogs) levels ever measured and biological active ingredient levels about 5.3 times higher than the best wild collected samples. The potency of the Cordygen5™ cordyceps blend comes from the proprietary combination of cordyceps strains and the way these strains are cultured and extracted.

Almost all cordyceps strains are cultured in a process called liquid cultivation or fermentation. This process uses a liquid substrate to grow the cordyceps mycelium in a very speedy 5-18 days, yielding low levels of active constituents. The cordyceps mycelium is then harvested by filtering out the liquid medium, drying it and grinding it into a powder. By filtering out the liquid medium many of the quality compounds secreted by the cordyceps are lost. It is usually further processed using hot water or solvents resulting in the loss of nearly 90% of the active constituents of which it had few of to begin with due to the fast liquid culturing process.

Cordygen5™ is grown using a solid state (solid substrate) or biomass method. This is a much slower culturing method where the cordyceps is grown on a sterilized solid medium such as organic grain. The cordyceps is allowed to consume the solid substrate while being subjected to temperature and gas changes (O2 and CO2) to simulate its native high altitude conditions. This process typically takes between 22 and 24 weeks (nearly 6 months) before the cordyceps is ready for harvest. When the cordyceps mycelium is ready to harvest it has consumed more than 98% of the solid medium in which it was cultured on. The residual substrate is then removed yielding 100% pure, super potent cordyceps material with extremely high concentrations of active constituents from every facet of its life cycle. The cordyceps is then extracted & concentrated to increase it’s potency up to 20X. This process allows Cordygen5™ to exceed the potency of other cordyceps products on the market by up to 95%.

For Thousands of years Traditional Chinese Medicine has used cordyceps to support healthy kidney, lung (respiration) and heart function, low male and female libido, fatigue, immune disorders, for general health and appetite and for promoting longevity. Tibetan Sherpas use cordyceps to enhance energy production and oxygen utilization when climbing Mt. Everest. In 1993 the Chinese Women’s National Track Team used cordyceps to set nine world records, three by staggering margins.

In this country its use has been researched for it’s enhancement of energy production with applications in athletic performance and fatigue. Cordyceps has been clinically proven to enhance ATP production, increase oxygen utilization, improve VO2 Max, increase SOD (Super Oxide Dismutase) activity, support immune function, support healthy kidney function, support healthy cholesterol levels, protect the liver and improve glucose metabolism*. One study even suggests that cordyceps may improve testosterone production in leydig cells.

To reps and forum members that have expericece logging these supplements:

I have a few questions on timing for both of those supplements.

For the CEE it says take 4 caps 30 minutes before training. Thats fine.
Then it says take 4 caps immediately following training. Thats also fine.

It says on non-training days space servings evenly. Does this mean that on non training days i take 4 caps, say in the afternoon, and take another 4 caps a hour later? or do I just take 4 caps in total on non training days?


And with the CORDYGEN5: It says "As a dietary supplemnt take one time release caplet three times daily, or 30 ot 60 minutes prior to weight lifting or endurance activity.

Does that mean I can take 3 caps of that at once before my workout?

and does that mean i should take 3 caps on my non workout days, and spread it through out the day? thanks

Mat

[whitedevil74]

I think you can take all 6 at once, or split it up 3 before, three after. Your choice.

[Millennium 1]

Seroph4x,

You have right idea on the CEE. Take 4 preworkout and 4 postworkout on training days. On non training days take 4 caps in the morning and 4 caps about 8-10 hours later. This is easiest for most people.

Take all 3 Cordygen5 caplets 45-60 minutes preworkout. This works best for 99% of users. On off days either take 3 caplets before cardio or endurance activity or if you don't train at all (cardio or lift) then take 1 caplet three times daily with meals. If this is inconvenient then designate a time during off days to take all three caplets at once. The idea is just to get the three caps in you on off days in any manner.

Thanks,

-Matt

[Seroph4x]

Taekwondo.
Workout was good, as usual though. I always push myself hard. Sweating a lot, but thats nothing unusual.

Yeah, not much to report at all. Soild workout.

Hoping to get some more enducance, my weakness in tkd is that I get tired too easily. I need to get fitter lol...tkd and MMA is very tiring and demanding.

[Robby Coker]

Cool!

I hope the supplements work well in helping to improve your endurance, and hence, your performance.

How long have you been doing Taekwondo, btw?

When I was younger, I used to attend Aikido self-defense classes. I only got up to a blue belt, though, as I ended up having to quit it later on so I could focus more on school.

[SPACECLOWN]

My only problem is time. With 3 little kids, a full-time job and a wife that runs a business I don't get much time. It's hard enough squeezing in gym time. Maybe when the rugrats get older. I don't know the difference in the styles or martial arts but my gym does have akido.
