This is the closest I've come to hitting the macro goals that the BP lays out. 235*1.5 = 352. I know 2 is ideal but it took me 3000 kcal just to hit this, and I'm starting to feel like a fatty. I've certainly put on quite a bit of weight since starting this, much more than I intended. I'm hoping its worth it.

Hit the gym about 4:00 PM did workout #7

This may look a little stupid since it's been 3 weeks and no weights have increased, suffice to say that sets and reps are being played with in a fashion that makes this possible while still getting stronger (hopefully). I wish I could list the full details to make it make sense for some of you but I can't. Sorry for the vagueness.

Notes
Still having scale denial problems...207 seems really heavy, it's been a long time since I've seen the plus side of 205. I'm hoping that a) a lot of it is water b) the rest is muscle and c) it will come back down or at least stop going up so quickly.

Notes
Today marks the half way point in this log so I thought I'd do a nice half way point review of the supps and the BP program. So here goes...

Slin-sane/Protocol
This duo is hard to quantify, slin-sane is a GDA, I definitely think taking one pre-workout has been giving me greater than usual pumps, the pre-bed dose has been my favorite though, my sleep has been deep and restful. My only complaint is that I wake up feeling a little groggier than usual, though that is partially a stim-dependency as well. Protocol has definitely helped with recovery, the set/rep scheme of my BP run would normally har reduced me to the fetal position. I do wish that Protocol mixed a little better, but as with any product with a free form amino, especially BCAA in it, it mixes rather poorly. I'm used to that.

Slin-sane - 9/10
Protocol - 8/10

Free-Test
I got this during a massive BF sale, I think I paid 50% and free shipping or something absurd like that. After reading Sloop's log I decided that it would be a good addition to this log as well. So far it's been everything I expect from a natty T booster. Oily skin, shorter temper, better recovery, strength gains. The only unforeseen aspect to this was the forksolin which I overlooked during my original purchase. It doesn't usually sit well with me, leading to some stomach upset, but the closer I take it to food the better off I am. Still a great product, I'm just one of those people that doesn't tolerate it well.

7/10

TestForce 2
I'm not sold on this yet. In fact the first couple of weeks before I added Free-Test I don't think I even noticed any natty t-booster type things. I don't like admitting when I'm wrong but I think in this case I might've been. I rolled the dice betting on DAA here and I'm pretty sure it bit me in the ass. Still have 2 tubs to go, but I don't think I'd buy this again.

4/10

E-Bol
The scheme that the BP follows I think would be unbearable without the adaptogen properties that E-bol brings to the table. Doing the workout schemes without that added boost would make this log semi-unbearable. I don't think I have to sell anyone on this. If theres one thing you don't do BP without, it's this.

10/10 - must have for BP

Bulletproof
I've taken ZMA and 5-HTP in the past for better rest and sleep but this has been my first experience with phenibut. I was concerned at first because the label recommends 5-on 2-off, but I've started only taking it on training days and my rest is great, my recovery is better, and I fall asleep immediately. As long as you don't get hooked on it, or over-use it, I think it's a great product that at 4 servings a week lasts for 10 weeks. My only complaint is that a serving is 1/2 a scoop, why not just put a smaller scoop in there?

8/10

Pre-Surge Unleashed
I'm a pre-workout/stim junkie! I've tried at least half a dozen. I had heard a lot about PSU and was very excited to try it, especially since it's been on sale lately. It has caffeine and 1,3 so there's not any huge surprises here. It's a lot smoother than most pre-workouts I've tried, there's not shock or jolt that I got with 1.M.R. or Jack3d, but a little more intense than non-1,3 products like white flood. Overall I'd probably give this about an 8/10 - just a tad stronger and it would be a 10.

Reversitol v2/MACA/GreenMag/PiT
I'm lumping these all together because I've used them several times before and know very well that I like them and that they work well for me. I'd be happy to answer any specific questions you have regarding these but won't waste additional space rattling off things I already know about them.

BP Program
Last but certainly not least. I think the best part of this program so far has been all the support and personalized advice I get from Rob/Mix/All the BP followers. Regardless of the program, that kind of support is priceless in my eyes.

I admit I was extremely skeptical as I started this program, especially around day 4 of famine, that was when I was looking in the mirror asking myself what I had gotten myself into. The skepticism continued the first 2-3 workouts of feast as well, especially as the scale weight started shooting up. Finally when traction hit and the workouts started getting just a little bit easier, I started getting a little more positive.

I struggled at first with the dietary guidelines as well. Not training fasted was a big adjustment, as was the carb/protein ratio. I don't think I've eaten this many carbs/day in years, but now that I'm over the original bloat that it caused I'm getting used to it. And the workouts are doing better because of it as well.

Finally strength, this could seem a little odd to those following because none of the weights that I've been reporting have increased since day 1. I don't want to go around ruining all of the BP secrets, so you'll just have to buy in to see what's going on here. Suffice to say those weights should shoot up very soon. All I can say is that the rep/set scheme explains the lack of increased weight, without making me feel like I'm stalled out. Really looking forward to this second half and breaking some records.

7/10 so far but we're only half way.

Thanks for reading all, sorry for the wordiness, but I'm taking a page from sloops book - I like to be thorough. [/u]
