| Day 8 April 16, 2006 WEEKLY UPDATE/OVERVIEW of Week 1 Weight: 173 up 0lbs - So far this week i have nothing really to report i do feel that my muscles are full all day i dont know if that is from the anagen or not. - Also i am on a balanced calorie diet right now im kind of cutting...im just eating around what i need to stay the same weight and adding a little more cardio so i dont think my weight is gonna blast up but i shure hope my strenght keeps going up. - Like i said before its just too soon to tell i hope this week i will see improvements. |
| Posted by: jkeithc82 Apr 17 2006, 02:48 PM |
| Any increases in strength? This is what I have probably noticed the most from Anagen. |
| Posted by: Pxboarder Apr 17 2006, 07:35 PM |
| Day 9 April 17, 2006 Chest and Tri's - It is hard to tell if my strength is increasing because of the bench program i am using, it wares me out before i can get to a weight i haven't reped before. on 3-31-06 i put up 205 for 4 reps right off the warm up so im up about 5 lbs and i bet 2 reps right off the warm up so far from that date - my starting bench was 235X1 right off the warm up, i bet im hitting 245-250 right now so thats 10lbs at least Flat Bench (trying MM2K bench press program) 3 warm up sets 185X6 195X5 195X5 210X4 ( very close to 5 reps) thats a PR but i bet i can get 6 or 7 right off a warm up Close Grip Bench 170X6 180X4 (new PR) Incline Bench 175X6 185X4 new PR Skull crushers 90X6 100X6 Dips 2 sets of 10 reps body weight only |

| Day 11 April 19, 2006 Legs -today was one of the worst workouts i had in over 15 weeks no improvments and my intensity was not there, i think it was partly because my partner wasent there an it was just one of thoes days where you dont wanna lift Squats(2-3in below //) 135X6 185X6 235X3(pure crap) Leg Press 5 plates a side X6 6 plates a side X6 7 plates a Side X5 Standing Calf Raises (plates 1-20) 6X6 7X6 8X6 Hamsring curl (plates 1-20) 12X6 13X6 14X5 Ab Work |

| Day 15 April 23, 2006 WEEKLY UPDATE/OVERVIEW of Week 2 Weight: 174 up 1lb -weight did increase and diet was almost spot on this week - well so far my strength is up a little but not enough to make me think it is the anagen i do however feel a better stamina in the gym - I have decided to up the dosage to 5 caps and see if that will make a diffrence that will cut the length of the log down 5 days making it only 40 day log so on 5 caps i will still have more then half way to go. I feel like i have a tollerance to anything i take so if i upp the dosage i may see the rusults others are seeing. |
| Posted by: Pxboarder Apr 24 2006, 08:27 PM |
| Day 16 April 24, 2006 Chest and Tri's - strength is still going up esp on bench but i dont know if it is just the new chest program or not i will be able to tell untill i get to see how 5 caps e/d works out Flat Bench (trying MM2K bench press program) 3 warm up sets 200X5 200X5 215X3 215X3 220X2 Close Grip Bench 175X6 180X4 Incline Bench 185X6 195X4 new PR Skull crushers 90X6 100X6 Dips 2 sets of 10 reps body weight only |

| Looking good man. Any more details about Anagen? |
| Posted by: Pxboarder Apr 25 2006, 08:56 PM |
| to sum it up so far. It most def. more muscle fullness and endurance...for strenght its hard to say esp with benchpress because im using a new workout that many respond well to. however with todays PR's and at the 5 CAP dosage and the most cardio aand lowest calorie intake i have ever had i think it is doing its thing. i would also like to add that i have not noticed doms to the extent that i used to... |

| Posted by: Bryan60275 Apr 29 2006, 01:43 PM |
| Your weight seems similar to what mine had been during my Ecdy cycle. We both started at 173. I noticed a lot of fullness and felt harder, but weight didnt really change much. Do you feel or see yourself leaning out a bit? I felt like I leaned but maintained weight. |
| Posted by: Pxboarder Apr 30 2006, 12:10 AM |
| yep spot on man . i look leaner and have gained 2 lbs now im up to 175 have also uped cardio to 20min HIIT and have a slightly reduced diet. I am definatly seeing the same results that you stated |

Looking good bro. Its great to see what effects ECDY has on a caloric deficit, keep up the good work! |
