pumped into the BLACK HOLE sponsored by Controlled Labs

**Pump043** · 08-13-2006, 04:38 PM

Hi all! I have been fortunate enough to be selected to run a 1 month test with Black Hole from Controlled Labs.

~~~~~Back Ground:

I am 32 years old, 6' tall, and 185lbs. I have been training off and on from the age of 13, but have only been back at it hard core for 10 months. I would consider myself an ecto/meso type, and I never have enjoyed eating. At the present time I have been taking in around 3300-3550 calories a day and just at 300g. of protien. I consume about 200 oz. of water per day, but intend to increase that for this month.

~~~~~Training:

I am strating MaxOT tomorrow morning. I had been on a routine designed by Ed Coan and the results were good, but it is time for a change.

~~~~~Diet:

The majority of my food intake comes from chicken breasts, eggs, OATS!!!, whey, wheat bread, OATS!!!, green veggies, turkey breasts, and on occassion.........OATS!!!

~~~~~Current Supps besides BH:

Jungle warfare
ON 100% whey
NOxplode
Cellmass
Anator P70
AST Multi pro32

~~~~~Supps I have used:

WEIDER(lol)...ok thats going a little to far back, and I won't mention Metaform of Cybergenics either.

Recent stuff= 1-ad, GB, Blue Rhino, Superdrol for like 6 days(I like my hair), DT2010, Thunder, Lipo 6, Novadex XT, Cell Fuel, NO2, if i think of more...well you get the idea.

~~~~~Some Current info:

At last check my BF% was 10.6. I rarely consume over 500 calories at a time( just to full). I eat a minimum of 8 times a day. I am not currently doing cardio.

~~~~~Goals over the next month:

I would like to get my daily caloric intake to a consistant 4-4.1k daily. My body weight goal is 190(mostly lean). My last goal is to keep a solid log that in some small way pays back a bit of the generous opportunity given to me by CL.

~~~~~ PICS

OK! I have them ready and have to learn how to post them or get someone to do it for me....Either way hopefully they will be up tonight.

Thanks in advance to all that decide to follow along.

I took my first dose of BH this morning. I took 3 caps about 20 minutes before I started making breakfast.

I downed 1 serving of whey, 2 whole eggs w/ a slice of cheese, 2 pieces of plain wheat bread toasted, and 1 cup of oats.

My second meal was 2 servings of whey with another cup of oats.

The first meal didn't even make me feel full, and even after whey eggs and cheese, I had zero bloating or discomfort. This is not usually the case.

**Pump043** · 08-13-2006, 05:20 PM

I thought it might be important to mention the mess RL is making out of my schedule over the next 8 weeks.

Monday Tuesday and Wednesday:

Up at 4:40, Gym at 5:45, work(suit and tie so no quick dressing) 8am-4:30pm,
Class 5:50 until 10ish.

Thursday and Friday:

Up at 4:40, Gym at 5:45, work from 8am-4:30pm, evenings free(aka rest omg)

Saturday and Sunday:

Rest

I am moving my workouts from the afternoon to the morning. Fortunately MaxOT encourages brief sessions.

With the screwed up schedule I am counting on BH to keep me eating .

The feeling we have all read people mention that comes around 20-30 minutes after taking BH, I would describe as a mild feeling of Euphoria. Thus far the 2 meals I have consumed within 40 minutes of taking BH I have felt kind of like a drone just going through the motions I am supposed to. Which is pretty much dumping heaping spoonfuls of oats and eggs into a bottomless void.

We will see if this lasts, and if its just a result of expectations..

**Pump043** · 08-14-2006, 02:08 AM

Well....off to begin lifting at the crack of dawn. Wish me luck.

As you can see my days are pretty full Mon-Wed, but I will update today. Most likely I will wait until the end of the day for a full overview.

I'm on day 6 of my new job. Everyday I have taken 4 meals to consume over that 8 hour period. I was zero for five. That is I was zero for five before today. I got up and ate, then worked out, took anator, ate another postworkout, and then went to work. Once at work I took my BH. I never felt the need to eat, but once I started I never felt the need not to. In addition to my 4 meals I threw in an extra serving of OATS.

~~~~~~

Calories 3890( over 300 more than I have taken in in a single day since February)

Protien 360

Water 224 ounces

~~~~~My workout was as follows

1) Squats (Warm up 10, 5, 3, 1) 250 X 6, 5, 4
2) Leg press 540 X 6, 5, 5
3) Stiff Leg Deads 205 X 8, 225 X 8, 6
4) Standing Calves Full stack + 115 hanging from it X 10, 9, 9
5) Seated Calves 180 X 9, 9

Workout felt great, and muscles certainly were well fed afterwords.

Have a good night.

**Pump043** · 08-15-2006, 07:36 PM

Man! What a hectic day at work...well that's how it is going to be sometimes /sigh. I am not sure what stressed me more...work or forgetting to pack 1/4 of my oats for work!!!

~~~~~

Calories 3610 (missed those oats)
Protien 396 - solid
Water 220 ounces need to get this up

I didn't notice as drastic of an effect from the BH today but I think work being overwhelming just screwed things.

~~~~~Workout went as follows:

1) Inc Bench (30 degree) (warm up 10, 5, 3) 205 X 6, 225 X 6, 4 thees felt strong
2) Bench Press 240 X 6, 6, 5 I was pleased with this after having done inclines first
3) Weighted dips BW +80 X 6, 7
4) Wrist Curls 95 X 10, 10

My chest was hella pumped. Over all it was a solid day, but I wanna get my cals to the 3.9-4k range the rest of the week, and my water over 2 gallons(256 ounces).

Until tomorrow.....

**Pump043** · 08-16-2006, 06:52 PM

I had a little bit better of a nutritional day today. My appetite was solid and with the BH I sure seem able to put away food when it's time to.

Calories 3970 SOLID
Protien 397g. $$
Water 232 oz still lower then I want.

~~~~~Workout

1) Bent over rows ( warm up 10, 3) 185 X 5, 4 wasn't pleased with my effort here.
2) V-bar pull downs (warm up 10) 160 x 8, 170 x 8
3) Weighted chins +35lbs x 6, 5
4) Seated rows 170 x 6
5) Deadlifts (warm up 10, 3) 255 x 6, 6
6) Dumbell shrug 90's X 12

off to sleep!!!

**Pump043** · 08-17-2006, 04:34 PM

Finally I get to a day that ends at 5:00 and not at 10:15!!!

~~~~~Training

1) Seated dumbell presses (warm up 10, 5) 55's X 8, 60's X 6, 60's X 6
2) Seated Military Press 135 X 6, 6
3) Laterals 40's X 6, 6
4) Skull crushers 85 X 8, 105 X 6, 6
5) Pushdowns 90 X 8, 100 X 6 ... single pully machine
6) One arm overhead extensions 30X 10 each arm ... way to light but was the first time I have done this in years.

The workout felt good and had a good pace. My shoulder str has continued to climb. It was an area I never really focused on at all....aka I let my other workouts work my shoulders and ignored them.

ATM I am at 3300 Calories and expect to get to 4k or so b4 bed, but I will update that later....

**Pump043** · 08-17-2006, 07:06 PM

**Pump043** · 08-24-2006, 01:58 AM

Calories = 3940

Protien = 290g. ( sad )

Water = 210 oz. (also sad )

My protien was crap today. What more can I say?

BLACK HOLE is doing a magnificent job getting me through the early parts of the day. My first 3 meals have remained so strong that they continue to carry me around the 4k mark. A solid week in I am liking BH very much.

**Pump043** · 08-24-2006, 01:59 AM

Calories = 4030

Protien = 330g. I ran out of whey so #s are low

Water 202 oz

10 lb. bag of ON 100% should arrive by 4 pm tommorrow.

Workout

1) Squats (warm up 10, 5, 3, 1) 250 X 6, 6, 6 this was pretty EZ
2) Leg press 540 X 6, 6, 6 also EZ

4) Standing calves (warm up 10, 8) stack + 115 X 9, 9
5) Seated Calves 180 X 9, 8

Another good feeling workout. My weight is up on BH. I am going to give it a day or 2 before I quote a definite weight, just in case it is water retention.

**Pump043** · 08-24-2006, 02:00 AM

Calories 3930

I am not sure on the protien today....I'm still waiting on BB.com for my whey /sigh.

BH Has been a savior of sorts to me...I really needed my Cals up around 4k for a few months and with BH it has been no prob thusfar. So far I haven't experienced any drop off in the effectiveness either.

**Pump043** · 08-24-2006, 05:23 PM

Consistantly weighing 190.5 atm...BTW. I am not as solid as I was at 173lbs July 14th, but I can still see my abs. If anyone is counting that is 5.5 lbs since I started. I contribute my quick responce to the fact that on the JW I'm taking my body was just needing more calories. Thusfar with BH's help I have been able to answer that need easily.

At 173 I had just come off a HARSH cut, so I am guessing that's why my thickness has bounced back so well. I am quite pleased this bulk is looking much cleaner than the last.

It is currently my plan to get a second bottle of BH and bulk for another month(after 1st bottle is done). Then cut back and add some cardio in to stay lean as possible.

**Pump043** · 08-24-2006, 05:24 PM

Just so you know.....I look back at my last post and it just sounds insane....I know. I wish I could make it sound more reasonable .... Somehow!!!

I can't think of a way.

Workout

1) Barbell Curls (warm up 10, 6) 120 X 6, 6

4) Incline sit ups +75lbs X 15, 15

I felt great today. Str was solid, and nice pump. I am still waiting on my whey so I may buy some in person to get me through the weekend.

**Pump043** · 08-25-2006, 07:45 PM

Calories = 3976

Protien = 381 grams

I have notice a decline in the euphoric feeling I get from the BH. I have not noticed a decrease in effectivness. I'll keep a watch on this and keep it posted.

G'nite all

**Pump043** · 08-27-2006, 06:41 PM

After 3 BH's this morning I took down 970 calories at breakfast, and my next meal was over 600 calories. The rest of the day went to hell, but I guess the point is BH continued to do it's job.
