LAM's Syntrax Swole Experiment

**LAM** · 08-08-2002, 05:59 PM

I'm going to start supplementing with Swole tomorrow. Taking 1 serving post workout and following that up with a protein/carb shake of 40 grams of whey isolates and 100 grams of high GI sugars (50/50 dextrose and maltodextrin)...

My diet and training has been the same for the past 2 month so adding the Swole will be the only change made to my training regimen...

**Mudge** · 08-08-2002, 07:38 PM

Wow, I thought you were already going to post results LoL...

**gopro** · 08-09-2002, 06:24 AM

Curious to see how you feel from it. With what is probably a toned down formula, you should be fine. Good luck!

**LAM** · 08-12-2002, 01:29 PM

I have to put this experiment on hold. in my quest to get my lower 2 abs to come out I'm going to start carb cycling which would provide less than optimum results for testing out Swole.

Why can't you still use Swole while cutting Lam my man?

**LAM** · 08-12-2002, 06:22 PM

I'm still going to use it. I just didn't think it would be fair to critique that type of supplemet while on a carbohydrate restricted diet. it's far from the best anabolic environment to promote growth...

**gopro** · 08-12-2002, 06:59 PM

True, however, now you can give us a different perspective. You can tell us how effective Swole can or cannot be in helping you maintain muscle size, strength, and endurance while trying to lower bodyfat!

will do !

Very cool. Only thing...Re X already contains 10 g of glutamine peptides...you really don't need another 10 on top.

**hardasnails1973** · 08-14-2002, 11:58 AM

Thanks GO pro. Thats more money even saved !!

If you are trying to gain lean body mass would using ALA at 3 grams a day be the correct way to go? with like 250 grams of carbs. I was wondering if this could be holding my gains back . just curious

Listen..ALA is not a miracle worker. It is a great anti-oxidant and a decent glucose disposal agent. I have had my best results with it when taking about 500-1000 mg with breakfast and post workout...these are my two largest carb meals. It is the type of supplement that will not show dramatic gains quickly, but rather smaller, cumulative gains over a long period of use. The ALA is certainly not holding any gains back, but it may not appear to be doing much either...its payoff comes further down the road in terms of mass gains.

**LAM** · 08-16-2002, 05:34 PM

I have been taking 1 serving post workout only on weight training days. The directions state to take 1 serving am and 1 serving 8-12 hours later on a daily basis. Next week I will take 1 serving am and another serving post workout on weight training days.

I can't bring myself to take creatine on non-weight training days. It seems like such a waste..

No adverse effects or any noticeable effects to date. Strength levels have stayed the same...

**gopro** · 08-19-2002, 09:15 AM

Have you been dieting and/or increasing cardio? I know you said you wish to lose bodyfat.

**LAM** · 08-19-2002, 10:47 AM

I've been on a slow cut for the past couple of months but I haven't changing my cals. the only change in my diet which I started on the 1st of the month was using MCT's for 50% of my fat intake.

My cardio has been the same which is tue-thur-sun for 60 minutes at a moderate-intensity...

**gopro** · 08-19-2002, 06:54 PM

Oh, ok Lam. Just was curious to see if the Swole was maintaining your strength levels at a calorie deficit.

**LAM** · 08-25-2002, 01:03 AM

No changes from Week 1. Strength and endurance is still good. b

Thanks for the update.

**LAM** · 09-03-2002, 06:00 PM

No changes from Week 2. Strength and endurance is still good.

This week I'm going to start taking one serving am and another pm per the instructions. But only on weight training days...

Sounds good!

**monster_inc** · 09-05-2002, 09:30 AM

So Swole has already creatine in it. So why doesn't it say creatine on the label or anywhere else? It just say its better than creatine but I didn't see creatine in the ingredients. Been wondering about this.

**Twin Peak** · 09-05-2002, 09:50 AM

Good question.

I just started taking celltech again this week, maybe we can compare results.....but then, I increased protein and total calories as well since I am trying to add mass.

**MONSTER4X4** · 09-05-2002, 10:21 AM

tricreatine citrate is the creatine....

**gopro** · 09-06-2002, 08:50 AM

Yes, the creatine in swole is a PH balanced version which allows for greater absorption for the majority of users.

TP...I don't think it can be compared to Cell Tech as its "delivery system" is based on dextrose and Swole is based on non caloric substances.

**Twin Peak** · 09-06-2002, 09:12 AM

Well, GP, ain't that the point? Swole claims to be better than every delivery system doesn't it?

**kuso** · 09-06-2002, 09:19 AM

TP.....have you ever looked into a product called LAVA?

**Twin Peak** · 09-06-2002, 09:35 AM

Nope. Any good?

**kuso** · 09-06-2002, 09:45 AM

Dunno....was looking for someone to tell me......looks alright for a PWO drink though........I`ll go find a link.
