Let me share with you.

I started weight training in Nov 2005(1st anniversary liao!)

For the first 2 months(Nov and Dec 2005),I used the Positions of Flexion methodology preached by IRONMAN Magazine's Steve Holman. Note this is a pure bodybuilding protocol with its main emphasis on muscle mass.Was on a 4 day upper/lower split. Medium reps(8-10) used.

During this 2 months,I gained 1 in on my arms,dropped 1 in from my waist and gained 4 kg in overall bodyweight.

Then around the start of 2006,I switched to a medium reps(8-10) full body 3X/week routine. I was on this for 2 months and I gained another 1 in on my arms and 2 kg in bodyweight.

Only around late Feb did I switch to the low rep/low volume 3X/per week full body routine that I have been advocating to death and which I have been following till now. I have gained 3kg bodyweight and another 1.5 in on my arms with this.

My 1st gym month oni like once/twice a week or less than 5 times a mth

2nd gym month like 3 times a week or less than 10 times a mth

3rd gym month once every 2 days or Less than 15 times a mth

NO2:Controlled Labs's White Blood
CEE:Controlled Labs's Green Bulge
Whey:ON
Casein:ON

The White Blood/Green Bulge stack is pretty effective not to mention cheap if you buy from 1fastnutrition-I bought mine for $80

Simon Dean SG

really? i know the 1fastnutrition guy personally.LOL

btw erm, how do you use green bulge and white blood and also have you cycled other creatine as well?

Marco_Simone SG

On training days-Take green bulge 1 h b4 training,white blood b4 training

On non-training days-green bulge 1st thing wake up,white blood b4 you sleep-this is not on the instructions on the bottle,but obtained from people on bodybuilding.com forum.

I used to take Creatine Xtreme last yr when I just started out.For the whole of this year until last mth when I started using Green Bulge,I did not use creatine.
