Making it extreme with iSatori's Morph Xtreme

[KissIcon]

'Sup everyone. Been a while since I have run a log.....quite a while in fact so may be a bit out of practice. But I'd like to thank iSatori and the reps for selecting me to take a run at the new Pre, Morph Xtreme.

I would insert pictures here but I.Are.Technology Challenged....can't get the damn things from my phone to computer.

Anyways....I have had this for a bit more than a week but schedule has been crazy so training has not been what I have wanted it to be. None the less, I have had a few sessions since receiving the product and although won't gointo much detail, I will get those session up here in a short.

A small bit about me for those that don't remember who I am, I am forgetable anyway but cliffs;

Short chubby old dude with low back issue, left and right shoulder issue (impendgment or however the hell you spell it in my left and what may be tendon issue in right. no $$$ for MRI yet) and a titanium plate and 6 screws in my neck.

I do this for me and for no other reason. I don't compete, except with myself, and I haven't run a "program" in a few years.

So, on with the show......

Thoughts & Ramblings:


-Short and sweet

- Morph Xtreme mixed very well. Taste was different......

- Effects: Pretty suprised. No cracked out feeling. No buzzed feeling. Damn good focus. With the amount of caffiene in here (350mg) I figured it would make me a little winded but no ill side effects at the moment.

- One negitive; helluva big scoop. Second negitive; 20ox of water before training Had to stop 3 time jus to go pee.

All in all though, good stuff so far.

Thoughts & Ramblings:

- The "effects" felt better with this than previous session.
One thing to note, I usually train in the evenings after wprk, anywhere from 4:30-5pm to 6ish. Weekends are early morning around 6am when gym opens. So, with that said;

- Had a bit more pep in step this morning. Focus was better. Strength felt good. Just kept righ on moving.

- Cut the water back from 20oz to about 16ish oz. Still alot to finish before starting training. Taste was good though. Tad "stronger".


Once session got going, was feeling a bit...

walked out feeling....

Also, I had a lot of sh!t to do this day and I felt a little like the energizer bunny, just kept going and going......

Thanks for getting this going! I usually just mix mine with 12 oz of water just so I can get it down and out the door.

Guys, I'm sorry. I can't apologize enough. Spare time has been nil with me as of late and have had travels checking on my father who now has pneumonia. I've logged a lot of miles past couple weeks and just can't do a log entry on my phone.

I have wanted to get back to logging regularly on the boards again but this is the second time I have tried and failed. All I can say is I am sorry.

I have managed to get some sessions in as it is my only "therapy" at the moment. I won't go back as far as I should but will just pick it up from earlier this week. (I am taking a break from travels this weekend as my daughter is down with him right now)

This was a mish mosh of sorts.

I must have missed the memo but the gym as of late has been crowded as fuk. A little annoying but everyone deserves to be in there if they are going to put in work.

Anyways, mixed mish mosh

Seated cabke chest press w/flye drops: 40x45/20x20 , 50x22/25x15 , 60x16/30x12 , 70x14/35x10 , 80x8/40x8

Single arm DB side raises: drops drops drops 5x15, 10x15x-x5x20, 15x12 - 10x14 - 5x18, 20x10 - 15x10 - 10x14 - 5x15

Single arm DB front raises: drops drops drops 10x12 - 5x15 , 15x10 - 10x10 - 5x12 , 20x8 - 15x8 - 10x10 - 5x12

Single arm O/H press, standing: 15x10, 15x10 - 10x10 - 5x10, 20x10 - 15x10 - 10x10 - 5x12

DB pullovers: 50x12x3

15 minutes treadmill SS to finish up.


Fueled with i scoop in 12oz water.

This brought the taste out much better. Was able to finish quicker than using 16 or 20oz but still had to take a couple more pee breaks than usual. Maybe just didn't sweat enough. Energy was good though. Real good.

When I woke up on this morning, I woke to the most horrible calf cramp. I mean BAD. Felt like calf muscle was twisting right off my bone and through my skin! It calmed down but felt all day that it was trying to cramp again and stayed so sore, it hurt to walk.

Made it through the day but it was a pittiful session

Seated leg extensions: 70x12, 70x12x4 (had to cut it. calf trying to knot up)

Machine Back extensions ss/w single arm DB curls: 100x15/20x10 , 100x15/20x11 , 115x12/20x10 , 115x12/20x10

Seated CG cable rows: 85x15, 100x12, 120x9, 140x6

Seated cable single arm lat pull downs: 60x15, 70x15, 80x12, 90x10

HS Xbody chest press: plate# each side 45x10x3

Standing low cable row, single arm: 30x10, 40x10, 50x10, 60x10


I could tell during the leg extensions that it just wasn't going to happen so had to pull out a quick modification. Even through this, calf was being a b!tch.


Fueld again on Morph Xtreme Orange Mango Mania with 12oz water.

Not as much pep this evening. Mostly due I think to my calf. **** just plain hurt.

Focus on point though. I think I kept my focus more on trying not to aggrevate my calf than I was on any lifting.

[KissIcon]

This was not even a session worth mentioning.

[b]BB Dead lifts:[/b 135x6x2, 225x4x2, 295x1x3 - just couldn't do it. Calf was still acting up and last pull literally had to drop it and bend down and grab my calf and massage it to stop it cramping again

Pec Deck for single arm rear flyes 70x10x4, 85x10x4

Wrapped it up with 11 minutes on shoulder thingy ( I call it a shoulder bike)


Between calf, work and previous weekend's travels, just plain wore out. Morph Xtreme, 1 scoop, 12oz, only did so much for me.

[KissIcon]

Made it an off day. Worked a bit over ten decided to get a much needed massage.

I'll get back to getting today's morning session (Sat. 12/2) a little bit later.

How did the session end up?
