Day 1: 01/02/2007 My first impression of the Replenish as a product... The packaging is awesome. It has a distinct look. I like the label is stylish but retains its legibility. Mixed very well when combined with 10oz of water in a shaker bottle. The taste reminds me of a thick Propel gatorade. Pretty sweet with "sugary" aftertaste which is common with most WPIs w/ carbs. The mixture went down pretty easily, minor "clumping" in my mouth. This problem is one i have also seen with other WPIs. No evidence of CEE or Amino taste at all which is great, congratulations to the formulator of Replenishes' flavor system. The taste reminded me of a Pre-Workout drink because of its fruity orientation, not a bad thing. My usual Post-Workout formulation is ON 100% Whey - Extreme Milk Chocolate and i believe i have become accustomed to the chocolate flavor. 4 out of 5 stars because i like chocolate. 5 out of 5 for fruit lovers. Diet - ~3300 Calories, 80g Fat, 325g Carbs, 300g ProteinTraining - Chest Incline Bar Bench - 135x10, 135x12, 250x8, 250x8, 275x6, 225x12, 135x25 Flat Dumbbell - 85sx12, 85sx16, 100x12, 100x10 Decline Press Machine - 165x15, 185x15, 185x15 Decline Cable Flyes - 40x15, 40x15, 40x15 Flat Cable Flyes - 40x12, 40x12 Forearms Post Workout - On most chest days i eventually will get a chest cramp or two throughout the evening and so far i have not. I pushed myself pretty hard today at the gym and am expecting it. If i do not get one i will be very surprised but that may be a desirable result of the Replenish.

Day 2 - 01/03/2007 Biceps and Triceps = Yum Triceps Rope Tricep Extensions - 25x25, 45x20, 75x10, 75x10, 45x10 Bar Skull Crushers - 95x12, 110x12, 115x12, 115x12 ss/ Dumbbell Skull Crushers - 35sx12, 35sx12, 35sx12 Stright Bar Cable Pushdowns - 85x10, 85x10, 85x10 Dips - x12, x12, x12 Biceps Standing Dumbbell Curls - 20x12, 20x12, 55x11, 55x9, 55x8, 55x8 Standing Barbell Curls - 115x8, 115x8, 105x8, 105x8 Dumbbell Spider Curls - 25x12, 25x12, 25x12 Standing Dumbbell Hammer Curls - 45x12, 45x12 ss/Dumbbell Spider Hammer Curls - 20x12, 20x12 Diet Same as yesterday to the T!!! I ate the exact foods at the exact times. ~3300 Calories, 80g Fat, 325g Carbs, 300g ProteinMood When i woke up this morning i had the worst pain in my right rotator cuff. I have never had any issues with shoulder pain before so this was a surprise. At work (construction) it hurt to raise my right arm above my head. As the day went on and i took some ibuprofen the pain had subsided. I will be sure to keep tabs on this issue. I felt awesome at the gym today, chest was only moderately sore so it had little effect on my tris. I seem to be looking leaner or trimmer in my upper body lately, as i have new veins coming out weekly! I still believe it is too early to tell a definite difference but i will be sure to alert you guys when i see one!!!

Meal 3 may be substituted with Subway 12in Buffalo Chicken Sub, with their natural chicken (from the buffalo chicken, its different than their "chicken breast"). As with everybody i cheat from time to time, usually 2 subway cookies or a couple cookies when i get home from the gym... i can use the quick carbs then ehh? haha Please feel free to critique...

| QUOTE (40-yard dash_2 @ Jan 7 2007, 06:38 AM) | | Your diet looks pretty good, but where are the fruits and veggies in the diet? I'd also up the fat intake pre-workout from 5 g to around 15 g to help slow absorption of the whey protein, which is quickly digested. You could take 1 tbsp of Enova Oil with the whey shake. Enova is not all that bad tasting. |
thanks for the input... i usually eat a banana or two throughout the day, one mid workout. as far as veggies, i eat 1 lbs of frozen mixed veggies ED. tonight when i get back from the gym i will have a serious update from the weekend and i will post my food intake for the day. they list above was more to see where i got most of my macros... i will try the fat, previously i have had bad luck but i will try that out! thanks for everything! PS - Replenish is awesome...

Day 8 - 01/09/2007 Training - Legs Seated Leg Extensions, hammer strength- Warm ups - 55x20, 55x20 Barbell Squats - Deepest ever, to a 14in box - 135x12, 135x12, 225x8, 225x8, 245x8, 275x6, 285x6, 295x6 Stiff Leg Deadlifts - 135x8, 135x10, 135x12, 135x10 Seated Leg Extensions, machine - 120x18, 120x18, 120x20 Seated Leg Curls, machine - 120x15, 120x18, 120x17 Standing Calf Rises - 100x18, 100x18, 100x16 Diet - Normal Replenish Post Workout Thoughts - Today was the first day that i had really "felt" a difference from Replenish. I had previously been skeptical as to a 2 week run of a product doing anything for me that i could notice. I had grouped this group into the "slow" moving category, by this i mean similar to just whey protein standalone supplementation. In the long run you may add a couple pounds, see minor soreness reduction etc. NOT with Replenish, today i woke up and my chest was not sore. This cannot even be put into words, it was NOT sore at all, i could not even tell it had been worked 12 hours ago. This is a huge break though if this is not just a fluke day. My diet has been spot on, eating just about the same macros everyday so that could only be a minor contributor. I will be sure to keep you guys updated!
