    Ello folks! My name is Justin and I like long walks on the beach, green gummy bears and watching my 2 year old son shadowbox while I attempt to pay attention to MMA.

    ---Mission Statement---
    Almost this time last year, I had some blood work done, and I decided I needed to make a change. My goal is to gain my health, prevent medications and a complete recomp. I started my journey New Year's as a promise to my wife, my son and most importantly myself. I started at almost 280lbs, the heaviest I've ever been. After messing around with calories and different intakes, I finally found my sweet spot. Since the mid-April, I've lost 35lbs.

    ---The Path---
    Due to my living circumstances, I workout at home. For my resistance training, I follow P90X with PowerBlocks, I'm doing the Couch 2 5k program with my wife, and I also do other various things such as ride on the stationary bike. My training history is not very extensive, but the past couple weeks has been the first time I've ever used dumbbells. Throughout High School Football training, we used machines and lots of barbells. So least to say, if you need me to lift up the back end of a garden tractor, I can do it. BUT! if you need a jar of pickles open...you're going to starve! So, just ignore the current lack of weight that I'm using, I'm getting there! I also find it VERY important to have tip-top form, than to lift heavy amounts of weight. So If I'm having trouble with movement and not getting good, clean reps, I'm not scared to drop the weight to make sure I have the best form that's possible.

    Within this log, I will share my workouts, Infinite Labs supplementation and also rate these supplements when I use them.

    STAY TUNED

    Every League of Extraordinary Gentlemen needs their Mr. Hyde...



    John: I noticed you've been taking part of your daily dosage of vitamins just before bed. I'd love to hear your experience of doing so. I've always spread out my vitamin intake by taking it 3 times a day, but never just before bed. Do you get an added benefit of doing so while the body is at rest?

    8/15/11

    Yesturday I started "Phase 2" of P90X. In this phase, it's a lot of different movements with single sets.

    ---Chest, Shoulders & Triceps---

    In this order...

    Slow Motion 3-in-1 Push-Ups - 12 reps followed by 12 standard push-ups
    In&Out Shoulder Flys - 20lbsx10
    Chair Dips - 15
    Plange Push-Ups - 10
    Pike Presses - 15
    Side Tri-Rises - 15 each side
    Floor Flys - 24
    Scarecrows - 10lbsx15
    Overhead Tricep Extension - 20lbsx10
    Two-Twitch Speed Push-ups - 20
    Y-Presses - 20lbsx12
    Lying Tricep Extensions - 20lbsx10
    Side-to-Side Push-ups - 20
    Pour Flys - 10lbsx12
    Side-Leaning Tricep Extensions - 20lbsx10 each arm
    One-Arm Push-Ups - 12 each arm (I tried, but I had to do them girly style)
    Weighted Circles - 10lbs 2x10 each arm
    Throw the Bomb - 10lbsx10 each arm
    Clapping push-ups - 15
    Slo-Mo Throws - 10lbsx12
    Front-to-Back Tricep Extension - 20lbsx10 each arm
    One-Arm balance Push-Ups - 10 (also did these girly style)
    Fly-Row Presses - 20lbsx8
    Dumbbell Cross-Body Blows - 20lbsx30 (did these as fast as I could)

    ---Core---
    Standard Crunches - 1x75
    Oblique Crunches - 2x25 each side
    Reverse Crunches 25

    ---Evening Run---

    2 weeks ago, my 1 mile time was 14 minutes and 45 seconds (sloooooooow) Lastnight, it was 13minutes and 26 seconds. This is an improvement of 1 minute and 19 seconds over a span of 2 weeks!


    ---Supplementation--- (the ratings will be evaluated on a daily basis)
    2 Scoops of Crimson (Face) Punch Juggernaut before my training. 5:45 A.M

    Energy - 10/10. The night before, I only had 4 hours of sleep, so I woke up not a happy camper and dragging butt. However, Juggernaut provided me with a smooth, and great energy. It didn't hit me like a ton of bricks. It slowly came on and stayed there for the entire morning.

    Focus - 9/10. The focus is there. I love the focus that Juggernaut gives. It helps create an animal like intensity.

    Pumps - 9/10. To be fair to Juggernaut, I'm flabby so it's hard to see any pump I get, haha! With that being said, I can actually see, and feel the pump when I use Juggernaut. It's an awesome feeling.

    Endurance - 11/10. I did a lot of reps in my morning workout, but I wanted to keep going! The endurance that Juggernaut provides me is just amazing. I felt like I could have done the routine again.

    Taste - 8/10. Taste is subjective and I really enjoy the taste of Crimson Punch. It reminds me a lot of a childs vitamin, and that's not a bad thing for myself!

    1 Phenyl Core - 1:15 P.M.

    I love Phenyl Core. It's a great product, especially when on a recomp like I'm doing.

    Energy - 9/10. Needless to say, I was pretty tired at this time, the lack of sleep really caught up to me. It helped hold me over for the rest of the day and I was able to get my mile in at 9:30 P.M. Not jittery and a smooth transition like I experienced with Juggernaut

    Appetite and Cravings control - 10/10. This is amazing. It does it's job and does it excellent. I don't find myself craving crap food and I'm able to stay focused and eat good, healthy foods. I ABSOLUTELY love this fat burner.


    ---Other Supplements---
    Orange Triad multivitamin - 2x3. I take 2 with breakfast, lunch and dinner
    OxiMega Fish Oil - 2x2 with breakfast and dinner
    Nature's Made Flaxseed Oil gelcaps - 2x2 with lunch and before bed
    Lemonade Flavored Whey Protein - 1 shake made of 2 scoops after training
    Cinnemon Bun Flavored Protein - 2 shakes made of 1.5 scoops. between breakfast and lunch and before bed.

    Good on you, Dieter! It's awesome to see your epic workout on here, brah. I already subscribed to this thread and everything. Keep it up! And Cinnamon Bun flavored protein? Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Tell me more! Brand? Everything! I'm getting hungry now.

    I also see that you and John both take Controlled Labs' Orange Triad multi. I used to take that. I went from Animal Pak --> Orange Triad --> ON's Opti for Men

    Orange Triad was great, and since Kane is sponsored by CC, I figured that stuff gave Asians +10 to their strength. Haha. I've since moved on to OptiMen due to only needing 3 pills a day as opposed to 6.

    Would this happen to be Muscle Milk Cinnamon Bun?? That stuff is awesome! Problem is it doesn't last very long in my house - it's kind of like drinking the milk that is leftover from a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal.

    Kelgogi Yeah, I really like spreading it out, 3 triads in the morning, 3 at night. I feel it keeps the timing of those all important vitamins and minerals flowing day and night. Also, the Cyclo-REM GF is so valuable to me. It really gives me a deep sleep for awesome recovery!

    ---Core---
    Standard Crunches - 1x75
    Oblique Crunches - 2x25 each side
    Reverse Crunches 25

    ---Evening Run---

    2 weeks ago, my 1 mile time was 14 minutes and 45 seconds (sloooooooow) Lastnight, it was 13minutes and 26 seconds. This is an improvement of 1 minute and 19 seconds over a span of 2 weeks!


    ---Supplementation--- (the ratings will be evaluated on a daily basis)
    2 Scoops of Crimson (Face) Punch Juggernaut before my training. 5:45 A.M

    Energy - 10/10. The night before, I only had 4 hours of sleep, so I woke up not a happy camper and dragging butt. However, Juggernaut provided me with a smooth, and great energy. It didn't hit me like a ton of bricks. It slowly came on and stayed there for the entire morning.

    Focus - 9/10. The focus is there. I love the focus that Juggernaut gives. It helps create an animal like intensity.

    Pumps - 9/10. To be fair to Juggernaut, I'm flabby so it's hard to see any pump I get, haha! With that being said, I can actually see, and feel the pump when I use Juggernaut. It's an awesome feeling.

    Endurance - 11/10. I did a lot of reps in my morning workout, but I wanted to keep going! The endurance that Juggernaut provides me is just amazing. I felt like I could have done the routine again.


    1 Phenyl Core - 1:15 P.M.

    I love Phenyl Core. It's a great product, especially when on a recomp like I'm doing.

    Energy - 9/10. Needless to say, I was pretty tired at this time, the lack of sleep really caught up to me. It helped hold me over for the rest of the day and I was able to get my mile in at 9:30 P.M. Not jittery and a smooth transition like I experienced with Juggernaut

    Appetite and Cravings control - 10/10. This is amazing. It does it's job and does it excellent. I don't find myself craving crap food and I'm able to stay focused and eat good, healthy foods. I ABSOLUTELY love this fat burner.


    ---Other Supplements---
    Orange Triad multivitamin - 2x3. I take 2 with breakfast, lunch and dinner
    OxiMega Fish Oil - 2x2 with breakfast and dinner
    Nature's Made Flaxseed Oil gelcaps - 2x2 with lunch and before bed
    Lemonade Flavored Whey Protein - 1 shake made of 2 scoops after training
    Cinnemon Bun Flavored Protein - 2 shakes made of 1.5 scoops. between breakfast and lunch and before bed.
    Nice work partner! You are really bringing that mile time down! Everyone watch out for this guy---he is on a mission!

    Awesome to have the reigning champ in our thread! You are the man WB!

    Orange Triad
    Orange Oxi-mega
    Crimson Punch Juggernaut
    Massport
    Cyclo-REM GF

    As I mentioned previously, this week I am really emphasizing the negative portion of all movements. I am utliizing a 4/0/X tempo and actually sometimes even hitting a 5 second negative.

    It makes for a bit of a drop in weight used, but you really feel the target muscle complex being hammered!

    Today's Session

    Bench Press
    135x6
    155x6
    165x6
    170x6

    Incline Bench Press
    135x6
    135x6
    140x4

    Dips
    BW+100x4
    BW+100x4

    Press (Overhead)
    95x6
    95x6
    95x6

    Shrugs
    135x6
    155x6
    155x6

    Then I went to the track:

    Running 2 miles (14:37)

    Tonight, when I return from work I am going to discuss diet and supplementation in a bit more detail. Have a great day All!

    ---Mission Statement---
    Almost this time last year, I had some blood work done, and I decided I needed to make a change. My goal is to gain my health, prevent medications and a complete recomp. I started my journey New Year's as a promise to my wife, my son and most importantly myself. I started at almost 280lbs, the heaviest I've ever been. After messing around with calories and different intakes, I finally found my sweet spot. Since the mid-April, I've lost 35lbs.

    ---The Path---
    Due to my living circumstances, I workout at home. For my resistance training, I follow P90X with PowerBlocks, I'm doing the Couch 2 5k program with my wife, and I also do other various things such as ride on the stationary bike. My training history is not very extensive, but the past couple weeks has been the first time I've ever used dumbbells. Throughout High School Football training, we used machines and lots of barbells. So least to say, if you need me to lift up the back end of a garden tractor, I can do it. BUT! if you need a jar of pickles open...you're going to starve! So, just ignore the current lack of weight that I'm using, I'm getting there! I also find it VERY important to have tip-top form, than to lift heavy amounts of weight. So If I'm having trouble with movement and not getting good, clean reps, I'm not scared to drop the weight to make sure I have the best form that's possible.

    Within this log, I will share my workouts, Infinite Labs supplementation and also rate these supplements when I use them.

    STAY TUNED
    Nice Justin!! p90x is the bomb. One of my best freinds just start phase 2 as well. I think I've got him hooked now. Couch to 5k is a great program as well. Looking forward to following you and John. Congrats on your progress thus far! You got it going on brother! Subb'd no doubt!

    I just strap a chain to my lifting belt, but I have already broke one belt and this one I am using now seems to be on it's way out.

    On the subject of nutrition

    I used to do the typical BB type diets eating 6-7 times a day for years.

    Honestly, these type of diets leave me miserable, so about a year or so ago I looked into other methods like intermittent fasting and similar approaches and found for me this is a much better approach.

    Now, I almost always eat 4 times a day--usually the same thing everyday too, and have a cheat meal anywhere from once a week to 12 days or so----I can almost tell when it is time.

    Typical menu for me:

    Breakfast:

    3 egg whites/2 whole eggs scrambled with 1 piece of fat free cheese.
    1 piece of wheat toast/ with peanut butter.
    Huge coffee

    Meal 2:

    1 can of tuna
    cheddar rice cakes

    Meal 3:

    10 oz. of baked cod with either cocktail sauce or ketchup.

    Meal 4:

    Baked chicken salad, French dressing, Croutons, sometimes baked french fries.

    Works out to be around 2200-2400 calories. I can add a bit to gain and eliminate a bit to cut more.

    As far as my nutrition goes, it's currently all over the place, haha! I've recently had blood work done and learned that I have a high cholesterol so I'm figuring out what's working best for myself, and the same goes with meal timing. I've tried the "eat 5-6 times a day" thing also, and I really don't like it that much. Growing up before I ran into all of this weight gain, I was a morning snacker.

    I was never huge on breakfast or a big lunch. I find what works best for me is to actually completely replace my breakfast with a whey, or protein blend shake. This has been working out well for me and I feel as if it's also helped me improve my mood and such. This is also easier for me since I train fasted early in the A.M. The big key for me has been to find WHAT WORKS FOR ME, and not what has been written on a web article or a magazine.

    For the past couple of weeks, I've been using more of a 50/30/20 protein/carb/fat ratio aiming for 2250 calories per day. Many days I fall under my caloric goal, but I don't feel hungry and my energy levels are up.

    Like John, I aim for a cheat meal every 7-12 days if my nutrition is spot on. If I have one day where it's off a lot, I don't treat myself.

    A typical day for myself is:

    Breakfast - 2 scoops of a whey or blended protein
    Between breakfast and lunch - I'll usually throw in a MuscleGel
    Lunch - 3-5oz's of a protein (trying hard to avoid red meats), a slice of whole grain bread, and a bunch of veggies, perhaps a salad with my protein. Depending on how my daily macros are looking, I may also throw in a Lemonade whey shake (nomnomnom!) to help make up some of my protein
    Between Lunch and dinner - I will have a snack usually consisting of some salt free almonds and a few slices of chicken breast or turkey breast lunch meat.
    Dinner - 3-5oz's or a protein, a good ol carb (been loving these sweet potato fries, baked of course) and lots of veggies as well. I usually go for the veggies and protein first, and whatever room I have left, I top it off with my carbs.
    Before Bed - Either a serving of some cottage cheese, a shake or a FiberOne bar, depending on how I feel my digestion is going.

    I'm loving dinner being my largest meal of the day. It really cuts down on me wanting to chow down on food all night and before bed.

    As far as water intake goes, I get at least 1 gallon a day. I have a 2.2 Liter container that I fill up with some flavored BCAA's and sip on throughout the day, and drink plain water whenever I grab something to eat or take a vitamin. This lets me stretch those BCAA's for the whole day.

    Looks good JD! You have the nutrition in place to meet all of your goals! The ratio I seem to fall in on most days seems to run 50% fat 30% protein and 20% carbs.

    That's because you eat MassPort cake and Infinite Force Pizza!

    Being that it takes me a long while to post my workouts, review and on all of the "I Am Juggernaut" logs, I probably won't be posting much about nutrition. If I find that weight loss is slowing down, or my energy is dropping, I may start, but so far so good!
