Day 3, Part I
WEEK 1: Assess Tolerance
[color=yellow][b][size=+2]Day 3 (Dec 13, 2006): OFF from supplement today
Dose Used in Trial Thus Far: * Per product instructions; dinoiii will “taper” up dosage… increased dose from 1 cap Monday to 2 caps Tuesday...and tried the occasional-use supplement in off fashion; will return to 2 caps tomorrow.
Day Off Subjective Commentary – Recall that we have been reviewing the ad "claims" made for Yellow nEuphoria and I will, in effect, rate the same parameters according to today's "feelings" below:
(1) Depressed Appetite: (-)
(2) Alertness: (-)
(3) Decreased Stress Effects: (-) (Actually more stressed, but as a certain someone on the board told me; I probably just need more sleep - Not a supplement side effect, simply a work-aholic)
(4) Decreased Fatigue: (-) (Relaxed Effect Drop-Off today)
(5) Mental Focus: ** (Cannot wait to put science to use and judge potential placebo, can this product be too good to be true or what?)
(6) Mood: ** (huge dropoff here!)
(7) Libido: (-) Again, thus far … NOT tested.
(8) Endurance & Stamina: * (Would say little to no change)
Dinoiii's Rating Scale KEY:
* Insignificant Effect
** Slight Effect, Still Insignificant
*** Average Effect
**** Statistically Significant Effect
***** Dinoiii's Praise (statistical significance doesn't describe this!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Objective Off-Day Points –
(1) Blood Pressure
* measured via automated cuff; last calibrated on Dec 10, 2006
Baseline: 110-120/60-80
Throughout day, BP ranged from 108-116/68-74 (average BPs)
(2) Labs will be on a day off from the gym later in trial // rationale: evaluation for side effect potential (stay tuned).
(3) Electromyography (EMG) to assess muscle contractile effects later in trial (stay tuned).
------------------------------------------
Today’s Workout Notes:
Off from the gym today; tomorrow legs. Going to squat some serious weight hopefully. Sleep will be imperative this PM.
--------------------------------------------
Today’s Diet Notes:
Again, same issue with the diet notes, I cannot fully disclose meal for meal what I am trying out due to a future book.
Caloric Intake remained the same as baseline: 3450 calories divided over 8 meals
Macronutrient Notes: I cycle macros, today was again lowER-carb (20%; glycogen-replenishment issues; cortisol control).
