gettin korean booooty-licious with EBol/MP

[korean booooty]

It's getting cold up here in boston....BUT i don't want to get lazy and go into hibernating mode so I've decided to try this stack and see how it goes.

Goals:
-get to 18% BF (from 21% right now)
-work on getting my booty in gear
-tone up overall

The Stack:
Designer Supplements Melting Point (3x/day)
ThermoLife E-Bol (2caps 3x/day)
Controlled Labs SesaGlow (3x/day)

Workout Plan:
Thanks to my great workout buddy exhardgainer who keeps me in check, currently I do total body workouts every two days (one exercise per body part). So essentially I get in three total body workouts in nine days. I have three workout regimens that I rotate. The idea is that every time I come back to the same exercise I have to either match or beat it (i.e., increase weight or reps since the last time) or I’ll remove the exercise and replace it with another similar one. For the most part, I do each exercise with perfect form and a two second contraction along with a 4-6 second negative. After failure, I take 15 breaths (rest pause) and go until failure again. I rest pause one more time and hit failure. After failure I take 5 breaths or so and bang out a static (for most exercises). Some of you guys probably already know; this is the base of Dante's Doggcrap training.

These are the workouts that I have been rotating:

Workout A
Part 1: Incline Bench
Rack Deadlift
Pull-downs
Swimmer’s Press
Dips
Part 2: Hack Squat
Calf Raises (Hack Squat)
Stiff Leg
Preacher Curls
Reverse-grip Curl

Workout B
Part 1: Flat Bench
Deadlift
Chins
Close-grip Bench
Upright Row
Part 2: Leg Press
Upper foot Leg Press
Calf Raises(Leg Press)
Barbell Curls
Squat machine

Workout C
Part 1: Incline DB
BB Rows
Pullups
Reverse grip Bench
DB Rows on Incline
Part 2: Squats
Leg Curls
Seated Calf Raise
Hammer Curls
DB Curls

So for every nine days, the cycle will be 2 days of lifting (1 total body workout), 1 day of cardio, 2 days of lifting (total body), 1 day of cardio, 2 days of lifting (total body), 1 day of cardio.

i'm in!

*subs*

i'm currently bulking with e-bol and mp so i'm very interested in your log!!

good luck!

[cervasa1977]

good luck

[korean booooty]

Workout C (PM)
Part 1: Incline DB (2x35 lbs) 7, 4, 3
BB Rows (95lbs) 7, 4, 3, [1]
Pullups (assisted 20lbs) 7, 4, 3, [1]
Reverse grip Bench (80 lbs) 5, 3, 2, [1]
DB Rows on Incline (2x35lbs) 6, 4, 4, [1]

[1] represents static contraction

The only thing I notice is that I'm constantly thirsty. Even after I drink water, I still get that dry mouth feeling. I didn't notice any big changes at the gym but it's only been Day 1 haha Another thing is that during the night I frequently have to go to the bathroom...so much that at some points of the night I really wanted to just hold it in.

[dvsness]

when did you start e-bol?

i was very thirsty for a few weeks, but it has tapered since.

I was so mad at myself; I brought the wrong WO sheets with me and couldn't remember my numbers on some exercises last week so just to be sure, I increased weight in most my exercises (thus, the low reps). Oh well.

Notes:
Nothing new I've noticed during my workouts. Still very thirsty and urinating frequently during the night especially. I've been mad sore the next mornings.

[dvsness]

increased thirst after one day of e-bol? interesting.

nice workout. holy leg curls!!!!

Notes:
I'm thinking about changing some of the exercises around...we'll see. I haven't noticed any differences at the gym with the stack (i.e., greater pumps). I feel like I sleep a lot more. I can't seem to go without a nap mid-day. Oh and I eat soooo much. I was thinking about carb cycling, but I don't know where my self-control went =( Need to get serious...

Dv--I'm 5'6" and 148lbs. I want to get to around 140 (that is, without losing much muscle mass/strength) by the end of December.

[ab-swing asianbabe]

wow sick weights you've got!!! good luck

[dvsness]

missed you there for a bit.

you are strong! impressive!

[korean booooty]

thanks ab and dv!

Should I up my melting point from 3 pills/day to 4 pills or should I keep just stay at the 3 pills? And is it better to take with meals, before or after? I know it's only Day 6, but I'm so impatient and wanting results nowwww! haha sighhh

[SupaNatural]

In it to win it!

you're not going to see anything from mp for a while.

you'll probably notice getting leaner after you finish the mp, since it has a tendancy to make you hold a little water.

patience!!!!!

and how's your diet??

[korean booooty]

thanks SF!

Dv, haha yes i have to be more patient. as for my diet...ehhh let's just say it can be better haha i'm going to start carb-cycling so that my "off" day (aka cardio days) will be no carb and my 2 lift days will be moderate carb, high carb (saved for leg exercises). we'll see how that goes...

Notes:
So my one week marker has passed!! I've been sore, but it feels good. No side effects that I've noticed. But I haven't felt "pumps" that other E-bollers have discussed. When do you think it'll kick in?

For me the muscle fullness came within the first week. But for others it took a bit longer. Nice lifts! Just noticed your routine looks like a modified DC program! Rocks!

[dvsness]

i felt nothing before day 7.

i like you carb plan, how are your proteins?

training continues to look solid.

[korean booooty]

thanks SF and DV!

SF-you are correct. it is modified DC. i've been helluv sore on this program but hey it's been helping me get stronger so i'm all for it.

DV-as for my proteins, i get in about 100-125 grams. It used to be higher (around 150), but I had to stop drinking protein shakes for awhile due to some medical complications. but it's all good now =) btw, your back is my motivation.

Notes:
I've been getting really BAD headaches the entire day. Even now it's killing me. I thought maybe I was dehydrated, but all the water in the world is not helping. plus today was "No carbs" and I hate no carb days!!!

[BOSMIA bulk]

gotta represent the boston people...subscribed..you have some pretty damn good numbers! good luck with everything ill be watching

[korean booooty]

Workout A

Dips[ 1st Set, Rest Pause, Rest Pause, Static ]
Weight Asst.20 [ 7,4,4,1 ]

Notes:
I am looking very bloated all around, but like I said earlier it's especially around my stomach area. I also noticed that I've been breaking out on my face (around my forehead)! Anyone else have that problem? So far on this stack I've gained 1 lb (give or take) but I'm guessing it's because of the water retention? I feel stronger and oh so sore which is a good feeling. Tomorrow's no carb day... grrrrr I hate no carb day!

thanks BB...looking good yourself =)

[uhockey]

I apologize for no one from DS picking this log up.

The wtr retention could very well be from Melting point. I would recommned potassium and magnesium, plus plenty of water if you're not already doing so. I imagine Ebol also may contribute to retained water.

[dvsness]

i'm flattered thank you!

these workouts continue to look great.

your weight may be going up due to added mucle, you forget

i haven't experienced any breakouts, that sucks.

tomorrow is my no carb day, too - we'll suffer together!

Tricep Ext. [ 1st Set, Rest Pause, Rest Pause, Static ]
Weight 40 [ 10,5,3,- ]

Notes:
Today is the end of week 2! yayy I still have headaches however it seems as though it's really bad only on certain days. I'm drinking lots of water as always. I haven't lost any body fat or weight and I can't see physical changes besides the overall bloating. It stinks because seeing results/ transformations keep me motivated. And I think I'm going to have to start working out my wrists...they are so weak! I can't really go up on weights because they give out before my biceps! How sad....

thanks unhockey for the advice =)

[Blast_]

Looks kind of like DC, but a bit differnt. Good luck!

Notes:
Sorry for being so MIA. I have been sick for awhile and wasn't able to keep up with the logs. I forced myself to WO anyway but as you can see, numbers aren't too great. I felt very weak especially since I haven't been keeping a great diet either (not enough protein intake). I still have headaches on random days and feel no headaches on other days. Minor cramps, but nothing too serious. Can't see any visible results as of yet.
