Camaro's LeptiGen Mass Journal/Thread

[camarosuper6]

It is now Saturday, and the rest of my shipment of LeptiGen Mass arrived today (thank you TwinPeak).

Monday morning, I will be doing my body measurements before I go do my first workout on the LeptiGen Mass.

I will measure and take pictures of my:
Chest
Back
Arms
Quads/Hams
Waist
Calvs
Forearms

As of right now, this is my workout plan:


Mon:Upper Body (reps 4-6 and 6-8) Total of 20 sets

Tue: Lower Body ( reps 4-8) Total of Total of 12 sets

Wed:Upper Body ( reps 6-8) Total of 20 sets

Thur: Lower Body (reps 10-12) Total of 12 sets

Fri: Upper Body (reps 10-12) Total of 20 sets

Monday and Tuesday: are my power days so to speak. I will be maintaining my strength by using the first SET of nearly every exercise MAX OT style, going to positive failure between 4-6 reps. The next SET of each exercise I will be going to failure or within one rep of failure between 6-8. Each exercise gets two sets, each bodypart gets anywhere from 4-6 sets PER BODYPART.

Wed and Thursday: are more geared for hypertrophy (extensive bodybuilding). I will be going between 6-8 on upper body exercises and 10-12 on lower body exercises.

Fri: Is pure hypertrophy for upper body geared in the 10-12 rep range.

This will be my 4 week cycle, then I will switch over more towards intensive bodybuidling for 4 weeks and then switch again, working in 4 week blocks.

This will be my official thread.

I felt a great, solid pump all day today. My upper body was extremely vascular, througout the entire day. My workout was really good, and I felt very strong. My appetite was still strong, but not AS strong as it usually is, especially post workout.

I also felt bloated much of the day. The LeptiGen smells pretty bad, but it tastes ok (though rather potent). I think it tastes good with apple juice.

The GABA thing worked well for you ?
Is this your first journal ?

[camarosuper6]

My first serious journal. I havent even opened the GABA yet, I think I will give it a shot before todays workout and before I sleep tonight

Tuesday:

Been a tough week so far. Usually I have time to post info fairly easily but my grandmothers health has taken a turn for the worse and my mom is over there nearly 24/7 taking care of her, and my brother and I are rotating with her so she can go to work still and so forth. Also, I work graveyard until the end of April, so my schedule, along with school and a few out of town job interviews is making this week a VERY tiring one. Still, I will keep true to my word and keep this thread going strong and monitor all my meals/etc.


I woke up at 3:30 this afternoon, after not sleeping at all from Sunday afternoon until Monday night.

3:30 pm
two bowls of cereal w/blueberries and orange juice
1 serving LeptiGen Mas

4:30
1 bowl cereal/strawberries and blueberries
1 scoop of VP2 isolate w/milk
1 scoop swolev2
1 dymetadrine extreme

5:45 Workout
Lower Body

Squats
1(4-6) 315 x 5
2 (6-8) 275 x 6

LegPress
1 5 plates x 6
2) 5 plates x 7

Hamstring Curls
1) 170 x 8
2) 170 x 6

Calf Raises
2 sets to failure (whole stack)

Seated Raises
2 sets at 125 x 15


The workout today was very tiresome and I did not feel nearly as strong as yesterday. I think that has a lot to do with how my sleep habits change from the weekends to the weekdays. Since taking the LeptiGen on Monday, I still feel a bit bloated (though not as bad as yesterday) and my pumps are still awesome! I get a bigger pump using the swole/LeptiGen then any other combo.
The LeptiGen Mass container says Cell Volumization... so maybe it acts like an arginine product that actually works??? I'm not sure, Ill have to ask TP about that. It would definitely be a first for me, as none of the arginine based products have done jack for me in the past, except make my wallet a lot lighter.

I am regularly consuming anywhere from 3,000 to 4,000 calories per day as I always do. I dont keep an exact amount, but always eat at LEAST 5 meals a day sometimes more, and usually around 6. I am tired this evening, looking forward to a good nights rest and a good workout tommorrow.

[Jodi]

Sorry to hear about your Grandmother. I hope everything works out alright and things settle down for you.

Good luck with the LG Mass

[camarosuper6]

Thanks Jodi.

Good workout today and once again outstanding pump. I was still bloated, but I took an antacid and it made it better. I have a good solid fullness to my body all day long, possibly from the food and possibly from the leptigen. I will be using UD2 diet Mass dieting standards staring on Monday, which will allow me to eat maintence calories or 10 percent higher on each day except the day before my heavy day, which I carb load the day before. Looking forward to that.

Indeed, all the LeptiGens are cell volumizers. Your comments in this regard, while I am glad to hear them, were expected. LeptiGen MASS works as a cell volumizer directly, through several of the nutrients it provides, and also indirectly, by promoting the Fed State.

Cell volumization is just one benefit of LG MASS, however. Though it is quite beneficial, promoting blood flood and sending nutrients (micro and macro) into the muscle.

NIce feedback so far, keep it coming.

[camarosuper6]

Today is Thursday. Friday is the beginning of my 3 day work week but all is ok


Here is today's meals

Another meal at 9:00 and that will be it for the day.


I wanted to make a few more comments on the LeptiGen that I have noticed. It seems that although my actual appetite still is the same, where I get hungry every few hours, I actually FEEL full all day long. Its a very strange sensation. Like two parts of my brain are not communicating. My pumps are great, my workouts are strong, and I eat as planned, and even my hunger remains. However, my body actually FEELS full all day long.

Also, I have to remind myself to drink more water, because with the fullness I feel, I dont get as thirsty as I used too. I dont know if that has anything to do with the LeptiGen or not, but I rarely feel dehydrated.

Just a few comments I thought I would post.

Ya know, I usually can do 225 for 10 reps, but I was giving this 20 rep thing some respect. Your supposed to use what you can do for 10 reps, then go and do 20, but I figure I'll move up slowly.

I guess Im a big ol wuss.

How are your legs feeling today ???? If they are not too bad - throw in a few more 20 rep sets the next time you do legs.....My legs are still sore from Wednesday's Leg day (it's Friday today).

We can both be in pain together!! I'm shooting for 20 reps next week too!! I've been doing 15.

[camarosuper6]

Weekend is nice. No working out, relaxing and I usually cut my calories on weekends a bit, since I work, I usually eat anywhere from 2,000 cals to about 2, 500. Not as much as my bulking 3,500 to 5,000 per day It serves as a nice change of pace, and it helps keep the fat off.


Monday, I will begin again

You're still dosing the LG on the weekends though, right?

[camarosuper6]

Yes.

Just not eating as many calories.

Hey Camaro, hows it going?

I used to do the high reps for legs a couple years ago before I took a break from lifting for a while. Those high rep sets are killers arent they? Make your legs scream!

How does your diet feel while on LM? Still have that full feeling all day long? I do too... its quite weird with having an active appetite and yet feeling full. Its nice though, and let me tell you, it doesnt make a 16oz steak taste any worse!

[gwcaton]

Camaro,

Just had to post here for two reasons.
1. I've done the 20 reps workout before. They are KILLER !!
2. I wanted to get my Mopar sig in a Camaro journal ! LOL

Intresting journal though. I am looking for something besides creatine. I was taking it and have been off it for a couple of weeks and don't notice any difference between using it and not so evidently it wasn't doing anything for me.

Good luck !

[camarosuper6]

Will be updaing the past 3 days info tonight. Have been very busy, and kept all records in my notebook, but have yet to post them. I will give Mon/Tue and today's info tonight.

[camarosuper6]

Ok, I FINALLY got that stupid cam working, so here are my before pics of the LeptiGen.

TP, if you want to see any different shots (thighs, calvs) lemme know, because it is a pain to get the cam to point downward ( its in a fixed position)

Go easy on me, I know I need a tan
