Animal Stak mini-log

[OffshoreDrilling]

I decided since I have the time, I am going to a bit of a log of my first ever cycle of Universal Nutrition's Animal Stak. My shift at work has gone back to nights, from 5pm to 5am. I am able to eat much better because I only need to cook meals for myself, I get more sleep then when on day shift, and I am able to dedicate 5 days a week to working out (weekends off).

Essentially it is a hormone booster. http://www.animalpak.com/html/sections.cfm?id=8


Current supplement stack:
-Opti-men multi vitamin
-generic vitamin-C
-Pro-Lab Creatine Monohydrate
-O.N. ZMA
-Universal Nutrition Animal Stak
-O.N. Gold standard whey


I'll post a bit about my workout, diet and weight every day as I go through the 21 day cycle.


EDIT: Here is a photo of my starting physique (3 days in)

Day 1

Height: 5'11"
Weight: 175.6#

Workout:
I was feeling fairly motivated today to be starting on this new cycle, even though last night was my first shift back on nights. I didnt sleep the greatest either, but still pushed myself to exhaustion at the gym.

Back/tris/halfassabs:
-4x5x295# deadlifts
-3x8x165# reverse grip barbell rows
-3x10x210# Seated Dips
-3x10x110# Tricep Extension machine
-3x10x 70# dumbell bent over rows
-3x10x 90# bent arm barbell pullover
-2x25 body weight dips
-3x15x125# machine crunches
-2x10x45# side bends


So far today Ive had a protein shake, a cup of coffee, 3 packets of instant oatmeal in skim milk, and an apple with some natural peanut butter. No noticeable effects from the Animal Pak.

To maximize the gains from stak you should have gotten Test as well.

If it really does boost your hormones, you'll feel like you're on top of the word while on it, but wil be suicidal once you get off, and many of your gains will be lost.

That doesn't sound like fun at all.

Testosterone turns into estrogen, that's just the way it is. All the good products out there have always had bad side effects once you cycle off.

Is that bad? I have always been really skinny/lean. Before I started working out, my weight was 155-160# on average.

Day 2:

Weight: 174.8 lbs.

I was not feeling quite as motivated today, and I believe I am coming down with a head cold. My throat was a bit sore, and I woke up coughing up some brownish colored phlegm. 2nd day of night shift tired me out a bit as well. Used some Jack3ed today instead of N.O. Xplode. Tried one scoop and had little to no effect on me. Going to try out 2 scoops tomorrow. I am already drinking a lot of water because taking creatine, but my thirst has been absolutely insatiable all last night and this morning so far.

Shoulders:
3x8x55# dumbell shoulder press
3x12x15# alternating front dumbell raise
3x8x45# arnold press
2x10x10# external rotation
2x10x15# internal rotation
3x8x140# reverse fly machine
2x light sets, not sure of weight, to failure on the lateral raise machine
3x12x65# dumbell shoulder shrugs.

 

[skeezer]

I'm into 3 scoops of jack3d to get me going. I add in some shit to my jack3d to get ultra jack3d.

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

My N.O. xplode ran out and I decided to give it a try since so many people rave about it. I drank a cup of coffee before I took it, and all I had eaten was 5 scrambled eggs before hand too.

Upping the dosage looks like the answer.

 

[skeezer]

I would consider Animal pak-ing it before getting ultra jack3d.

You seem like a hardcore dude.

No, no, no, i always remember you being really skinny, like you said, about 150#. You're making good progress if you weight 174 now, that's quite a bit. And i didn't know you were 5'11", i was under the impression we were about the same height

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

How tall are you mike? 5'9-5'10"?

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

its good to get some anti estrogens going...........easy way is eating items like broccoli and cauliflower.

before I say this I am not trying to tell anybody this is good or ok to evean do but I have some experence with actual hormones, and the media has blown alot of the side effects out of proportion, some people may experence the depression coming off but out of the 10 or so people that I know that have been on none of them have had negitive side effects and neither have I, and you definatly wont get them from anamal stak since it is just making you body put out more hormone than normal not replaceing it like test injections, like I said im not saying its ok just giveing some experence
