Training experience (as much detail as possible.. TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF ! ! WHY should we choose you ! !): I have been weight training off and on throughout university (now done) then went off a trip for half a year where i obviously did no training and came back in quite poor shape. As soon as I was back, i told myself i'd get into the best shape of my life. So for just 14 months now, i have been at the gym relgiously hitting the weights to put on as much muscle as possible. I can safely say that i am easily the strong i have ever been, and look the best i have ever been (although i sitll have a ways to go! )
Current Training Schedule / Protocol (as much detail as possible): I am just coming to the end of my bulk, so I have been following this routine: (5x5 routine, or close to)
Day 1/Core/Break/Day2/Core/Day1/Break (next week start w/ day 2 etc)
Day 1:
- Benchpress 5x5, currently maxing out at 210 (started at 135 after my trip 12 months ago!!)
- Squat 5x5, currently maxing out at 150 - i know very weak! trying to get this much higher, but i have quite bad kneed problems which slow the progress down.
Row - 5x5 maxing out at 150
Day 2:
- Military Press 5x5 currently maxing out at 110
- Squat 5x5 (see above)
- Deadlift 5x5 max 160

I really switch tis up as often as possible, so whatever core i am feeling at the moment...
I also toss in arms whenever I have some extra time

- last 4 months i have been supplementing quite heavily with aminos/no/cell volumizers etc.
Other product reviews / logs you have done (with links):

NOTE: If chosen, i would be using the neuphoria for my cutting routine, which I am very excited to get to, as this bulk has been very sucessful for me and I have put on a ton of strength. I have always had trouble sticking to a cardio protocal, although not this time! I am VERY interested to see how this will help me w/ my motivation for cardio. I am also planning on adding these supplements for my cutting routine:
- SesaGlow
- RA2
- Melting Point
Disclaimer: I have read the terms above completely. I agree to them 100%. I am not on any medication and I do NOT have a medical condition. I do NOT feel that I MAY have a medical condition. I do not have symptoms of ANY medical condition. I will be able to start my log / review the week of ?? (whenver i get the product) - I was originally planning on starting in the new year though.
Training experience:
Weightlifting fairly seriously for the past 10 years making typical newbie gains and mistakes. With age brought experience and wisdom and in the past 5 years I've gained 30lbs lbm while dropping 20lbs ft. Tried numerous lifting programs with varying success. Used to box at amateur level for a couple years then got introduced to bjj so main focus is on that now. So my weight lifting goals were never to be a huge bber as it would restrict agility and range of movement thus compromising athletic performance as a combat athlete. I do want a nice looking phsyique but carrying 260lbs on my frame just doesn't work for me.
The Lifting Routine
3 Day Split
Day 1 - Legs
Day 3 - Back / Biceps / Shoulders
Day 5 - Chest / Triceps / Shoulders
Usually lifting on Monday, Wednesday, Friday but sometimes it's Monday, Thursday, Saturday depending on various factors.
The Cardio Routine
3 days per week for 30mins
Tuesday or Wednesday - Low intensity cardio, usually eliipitical, depends on Monday's leg workout.
Friday - Always a run, sometimes on treadmill if weather doesn't permit, but that is rare.
Saturday - Usually I run at a modest pace for 30 mins but as of late I prefer to ride the mountain bike as it gives a better upper body workout
MMA Training
Train 3-5 days a week usually twice a day on Saturday and Sunday. Classes are a little over 1hr on weekdays and 2 hours on weekends. No set pattern on training, some days it's Muay Thai others it's bjj techniques and rolling. Weekends are usually a "mock" mma fight/sparring sessions.
Current Supplements:
Primaforce Substance WPI of Ergopharm I-Pro
Multivitamin (NOW ADAM, NOW EcoGreen, AST Pro 32x, etc)
3g Fish Oil
3g Vitamin C
1g NAC
500mg Grapeseed extract
200mg Idebenone
1g ALCAR
2g CEE
5g L-Leucine
1g Green Tea Extract (50% EGCG)
2 caps NOW Astragalus
It should be noted that I have completed a X-Factor log about half a month ago so I think it's out of my system and won't affect this log.
Current Diet:
I don't precisely count macros as I just don't have the time to do such unless for a log or a cut. But current diet consists of a minimum of 300g protein, 300g carbs and 75g fat. About 150g of protein in diet comes from shakes.Diet isn't very clean as I do eat processed foods and usually a fast food per day. I do eat a lot of fruits and vegetables to compensate, I'd say about double the FDA's recommended amounts. Also helps keep you nice and regular. Likely won't be making any changes to diet but will play it by ear and see what happens. Obviously if chosen I will describe diet in more detail as it's more pertinent to products of this nature.
Current Daily water intake: Water consumption is at least 1.5 gallons day and this does not count juices, protein shakes, or other beverages, just straight water.
Short Term Goal: Not get fat during the holiday season
Long Term Goal: Add more LBM
ANY and ALL Prescription / Non-Prescription / Recreational drugs:none
Supplement history (as much detail as possible):too long to list

ah. I think it would be better for Controlled Labs for me to post on both, so I will.
Controlled Labs reps: Will my log be available from the mainpage? will everyone who was picked from CL.com? Ive always been curious about that.
yes please do both if you can, its just some copy and paste work. testers were all shipped yesterday as well as contest winners.
