Just when you were looking good, you want to loose size?? What gives Les? And your unemployeed? Sorry to hear that.

Leslie · 11-19-2003, 03:24 PM

HAN~ Thanks for the links

DG~ I want to tone it down. Wanting more of a lean, slender look as opposed to a harder, bigger muscular look. Why the concern? Geez you people dug me in my fat pink bikini pics- if that went over well, then I think a more slender me would prove to be fine too

As for unemployment situation, yea it sucks. But my dog is happy and I have a great guy who is able to support me and our doggie while I figure out what I want to do

Hows the vendetta working for you? Thinking of picking up some.

**Jodi** · 11-19-2003, 03:33 PM

When did you get Vendetta? I thought you got ICE?

Leslie · 11-19-2003, 03:42 PM

Oops

Sorry, I edited. Jodi you are right, I am using ICE.
I was reading up on Vendetta and it must have stuck in my mind as I was typing

SOunds like really good stuff though.

Rock~ TP has used Vendetta for a long time. Perhaps he can tell you about it

Vasopro from 1fast400.com

I havent taken ECA in over 2 years

I am starting verrry slow. 25mg per day for a while.

UPDATE: (you will like this

)
I am changing my workout split. No more high reps and such. I dunno what I was thinking

Dante has really helped me and worked out a new split for me:

Day 1 will be push (ing movements), with Day 2 being pull (ing movements).
[4 reps for those parts I'm trying to reduce, and 8 for those I'm trying to maintain or improve.(BACK)]:

Day 1A (push)
Chest: 2 exercises, 4-6 sets total
Quads: 2 exercises, 6 sets total
Calves: 2 exercises, 6 sets total
Shoulders: 2 exercises, 4-6 sets total.
Triceps: 2 exercises, 4-6 sets total

Day 2A (pull)
Back: 2 exercises, 6 sets total
Hamstrings: 2 exercises, 6 sets total
Biceps: 2 exercises, 4-6 sets total
Abs: 2 exercises, heavy and low reps (4 is good).

Off

Day 1B
Same thing as Day 1A, just pick two different exercises

Day 2B
Same thing as Day 2B, just pick two different exercises.

Off

Repeat

Thanks again Dante

hardasnails1973 · 11-23-2003, 02:33 PM

add 2-5 grams Glutemine or BCAAS at each meal. This will prevent you from going into gluconeogensis and using protein as fuel and this not what you want to do. BCAAS are esential on this type of diet for sparing leanbody mass. People know to train heavy coming into contest time (you should know know better my dear) Bigger muscle means more caloires burned while at rest. hope this helps

J'Bo · 11-23-2003, 02:49 PM

isnt 25mg a day still quite a bit

when i was dieting i only took 8mg twice a day.

hardasnails1973 · 11-23-2003, 03:08 PM

split ECA to 12.5 mgs 2 times per day is a much better solution. secret to EC stack is to take smaller dosages through out the day time every 2-3 hours (similar to clen) add some green tea at 400 mgs along with stack and you will really be cooking plus 400 mgs is = to about 20 cups o tea in antioxident value NOT CAFFINE

Leslie · 11-23-2003, 04:24 PM

I am taking ICE during my workouts. It contains BcAA's and glut

25mg a dya is nothing. I was up to 75mg per day 2 years a go. I am slowly breaking in

HAN I never thought of splitting the ECA dose like that. Soemthing to think about.

nikegurl · 11-24-2003, 03:36 PM

Hey Leslie - Dante is also a fan of the 1/2 pill doseage on the vasapro. You can check it out here:

http://www.ironmagazineforums.com/sh...threadid=23869 (homemade eca stack)

I'm in the same boat as you. It's been a long time since I've used any eca and I've started up again.

hardasnails1973 · 11-24-2003, 07:07 PM

The reason for splitting up ist keep the thermogenic effect going more constanty and to avoid crashes as well

Leslie · 11-26-2003, 10:51 AM

Time for updated measurements.
Was supposed to do them tommorow, but I could not wait anymore

I have been following the diet to a tee, just havent been posting. Form now on I will only post refeeds , measurements and any changes

My BW is down, measurements down as well. Its only been 9 days, but I can see a difference in my physique already and my pants are fitting nicely again.

November 18th..............................................November 26
BW 168............................................... ...........165.5
Chest~ 40"............................................... ......40"
Bicep ~
.Unflexed~ 11 3/4...........................................11 1/4
.Flexed ~13............................................... ......13
Waist ~27 1/4................................................. 27
Hip~
.top 36 1/2................................................. .....35 3/4
.butt 38................................................ ...........37 3/4
.Under 37 1/2................................................. .37
Thigh~ 22 1/4................................................. .22
Calf 15 1/2................................................. ......15 1/4

I would also like to add I have skipped all cardio this week

I am thinking since I am still making progress anyways, of only doing it once per week for now. Can you tell I despise cardio?

Jill · 11-26-2003, 02:08 PM

How do you feel taking you eca stack? I started 1 about a week ago. 25mg ephederine per capsule, Im up to 2X a day. I will up that to 50mg 2x a day in about a week or so. Do you take days off from the stack?

Leslie · 11-26-2003, 03:30 PM

I took 25mg for 7 days and now I am up to 50mgs as of yesterday. needless to say I didint fall alseep last night til 6am

No I dont take days off- you need to maintain the levels in your body. I will taper down after 45-60 days or so and give myself a break for a while to refresh my receptors.

	I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...
