Madman's *************** Contest Log of Doom

**madman911** · 06-30-2006, 05:12 PM

I'm in it to win it... hear me now and believe me later.

I just got back from a little vacation and I ate like crap for three days straight so I'm a little bloated... all the better to make even more impressive changes in a month. Muahahahahahahahaha!!!!

Well, here are the pics. I'll post diet, supplementation, and workout info as I go along. Starting with today's deal... gonna hit chest/shoulders/tris in a few.

**skelooth** · 06-30-2006, 05:14 PM

That's not a piece of paper, that's a plate! DISQUALIFIED!

Glad to see you in the competition bro! Man.... have you seen that picture of cake in my sig? Man, that cake looks so gooooood man. It would be sooo tasty right now. Just a few slices of cake wouldn't right? I bet the local supermarket has one for cheap.... isn't it sooooooooo tempting?

Brent · 06-30-2006, 05:18 PM

You sure have some nice size going on. Good looking legs.

Best of luck!

It's a paper plate... therefore, it is a piece of paper! REQUALIFIED!

You and that f'ing piece of cake... you are the DEVIL.

Thanks Brent!!

**madman911** · 06-30-2006, 09:23 PM

My lifts aren't too impressive, but I'm gonna man-up and just post em:

Inclined db bench press:

35 x 12, 45 x 10, 55 x 5, 65 x 5, 70 x 5, 75 x 3

Decline db fly:

Very slow reps - 4 count on eccentric, 4 count on concentric, 2 count at the top while squeezing as hard as possible

35 x 10, x 8, x 5 -- after last rep, directly into bench press with same weight for 5 reps (just short of failure)

Plate loaded machine shoulder press

Weight is per side

45 x 12, 55 x 10, 65 x 10, 70 x 8, 80 x 8, 90 x 6, x 5

Upright row with low pulley rope

60 x 10, 70 x 10, 90 x 10, 100 x 10, 110 x 8

Rear delt row with rope pulley

80 x 10, x 10, x 14 -- this weight was too light, haven't done these in a while, gotta remember to use more

Smith Machine Shrugs

Before you ask... I like smith shrugs. I do not like bb shrugs. With the smith, I get a better range of motion which I feel works best for me. I let the weight hang dead then bring the shoulders up to parallel with my ear lobes on each rep and pause at the top with a hard squeeze.

20 x 15, 70 x 15, 90 x 15, 110 x 15, x 12, x 10

Followed by one set of 75lb db shrugs x 12

Dips

BW x 10, BW+25 x 5, x 5

db Tricep Press

55 x 10, 65 x 10, 75 x 9

Rope pushdowns

60 x 10, 70 x 8, 80 x 8, 90 x 6

My lower back was complaining a little bit at the end of the workout. I did a fairly high volume of deads yesterday, so I guess that's why. Otherwise I felt really good and had plenty of energy.

Tomorrow morning is legs.

**madman911** · 06-30-2006, 11:20 PM

Well, being as I'm on vacation, I kinda have my eating routine disrupted. Normally, I eat the same thing every day mon-fri so I know exactly what my caloric intake is and my macros are all as I like them. I need to redo my diet again soon, as I can add omega 3 back into my diet after the XF, and I should adjust my cals for the weight I've lost so far on this cut (about 20lbs so far). Today, my diet looks like this:

upon waking: 100g oats + 30g whey

Prior to workout: 4 scoops Excell (BCAA)

During workout: 40g whey + 40g dextrose

After workout: 4 scoops Excell, 1 chicken breast, one sweet potato the size of a softball

Just a couple of minutes ago: 40g whey

For dinner, I am grilling up some steak tips. I plan on eating 8 oz or so of these with some veggies, probably zucchini and summer squash

Then before bed I will mow down 226g of 1% cottage cheese

**madman911** · 07-01-2006, 12:02 AM

I am on the last four days of running Designer Supplements NHA stack (Rebound XT + ActivaTe) + Molecular Nutritions X Factor together. I've used the NHA stack before and I know that it kicks ass. I'm not sure what to think of the X Factor right now as I can't weed out what was NHA and what was X Factor in the results I experienced. I'd really have to run it alone sometime to make an accurate evaluation of its effects. All I can say is that the effects of stacking all the products where what I wanted; the cycle has done a good job at allowing me to maintain strength and preserve muscle tissue while losing fat at a consistent rate of about 1.5 lbs/week. I may have even gained a little lean mass, but certainly not a lot... no more than a couple of pounds.

I am presently also taking ALRI's Hyperdrive 3.0 and Thyrogen X. I like the results so far. Hyperdrive is a pretty powerful stim, way more powerful than I thought it would be. One pill gives a good boost to energy and it lasts a long time. The noticeable effects from one pill a day wore off after a few weeks, so I took two... it was unpleasant. I made the same mistake again today... just decided to pop 2 and see what happened. I can describe the feeling as being similar to that shakey, wired, nauseas feeling you get right after you've either been in a fight or a very heated argument. That feeling after a fight is caused by adrenaline (epinephrine) and this is clear evidence that Hyperdrive is indeed a potent beta-adrenergic receptor stimulator. Is the Thyrogen doing what it claims? Beats me. It's hard to judge the effects of a lipolytic product when it is being stacked with another product that also promotes fat loss.

I use Excell, a BCAA product from Anabolic Innovations. I take Excell before and after every lifting session, during my cardio sessions and I use it whenever I am in a situation where I might have to go a little longer between meals than I'd like to. I also use it when I go hiking or do any other physical activities.

I take glucosamine + MSM daily, a multi daily, and a B complex daily.

I'm not taking it right now, because of the X Factor, but I normally take 2 grams of cissus daily.

Again, because of X Factor, I'm off it right now, but I normally consume 6 fish oil caps + 6 Flax seed caps daily.

My next supplementation experiment is with Scivation's Anagen and Noxidant, both of which I just received and will start implementing within a week.

**skelooth** · 07-01-2006, 12:05 AM

I don't think it's really fair of you to be taking glucosamine + MSM every day. Everyone knows that stack is more potent than D-Bol + Deca stack....

**madman911** · 07-02-2006, 04:15 PM

Skelarama: I have doubled my normal dosage of glucosamine just for you

Alrighty, so yesterday I was derailed again. I wanted to hit legs before going to a clambake thrown by my wife's side of the family every 4th of July weekend, but I had hit the road around 8 am and my gym doesn't open until 7on saturday, so no legs.

At the clambake I didn't eat too bad. I did have 7 light beers over the course of 7 hours. I had a bottle of water for every beer consumed. I pee'd like a madman. I had some low fat cottage cheese dip that my wife makes, it is sooo f'ing good, on wheat crackers. I had two lbs of clams and a lobster with no butter. I then had a cookie and a brownie. I drank some Excell on the drive home. Once home I had two chicken breasts and then my cottage cheese before bed. Not too bad overall.

Today I will be destroying my legs.

**skelooth** · 07-02-2006, 04:33 PM

i think it's official, almost everyone in the competition has gone off their diet at least once. Sweet

jdiritto · 07-02-2006, 04:56 PM

How does the excell mix/taste? def the best priced flavored amino product out there

goodluck

**madman911** · 07-02-2006, 06:11 PM

It tastes pretty good. I especially like the fruit punch. I've also tried the strawberry which isn't bad either. There's a big difference in the potency of the flavoring between those two. The fruit punch has a quite strong sweet flavor, almost too strong so it needs to be diluted with a lot of water. The strawberry has very little flavor, too little for my taste. For now, I'm actually mixing them together until I run out of fruit punch... the combo is excellent.

jdiritto · 07-02-2006, 06:24 PM

cool i got the protein sample packet

they were all pretty good flavors, unique ones too.

the chocolate chip cookies are apparntly amazing from everyone raving on cl.com but i messed my batch up so i just threw the powder into my homemadep rotein bars was awsome

and spurred the idea for me to add MCT oil + ground flaxseeds into my protein bars! haha

**skelooth** · 07-02-2006, 06:27 PM

dude the cookies are amazing.....

jdiritto · 07-02-2006, 07:04 PM

Id get the cookies, alot o fem, but its cheaper to make homemade protein bars than them, so i do that

once i get out of college, and have a good job i will be ripppt.

My funds suck to buy alot of things that would just be helpful, and when im at school i have no funds really, plus i feel obligied to enjoy my time there since once thats done its reality really..

and im hoping to get a hot wife that can cook real good, and will cook me amazing meals all day long. healthy eating is expensive too!!! which sucks... but yea, that will be her #1 job, after sex of course.

basically, what im saying is, if this were a 3 year contest.. it would be minneee! haha
