Dave’s Body

 After the first week of my Methyl 1-D trial, there’s not alot to report. So far I’ve gained 1.8 (1.6 lean)pounds which has been consistant with my previous gains before adding the Methyl 1-D. I have had some good workouts this week but nothing extraordinary. The only effect that I’ve noticed during the first week is very minor acne on my legs and butt. So minor that I almost didn’t mention it here. My wife claims that I’ve been in a bad mood this week but I don’t feel that my mood has been altered. If anything I’ve been a little lethargic this week, but again, not enough to blame a supplement that I’ve only been on for a short period. So far nothing spectacular to report but will continue to train and eat good. 

 I love breakfast. It’s usually the only meal that I’m hungry for. Eating every 2-3 hours throughout the day doesn’t allow you to get overly hungry if at all. Breakfast is another story, you haven’t eaten anything all night. I usually eat 2 scoops of protein powder dissolved in milk with 1 cup of cereal (Special K Protein Plus is good) and a banana. Depending on what flavor of protein powder, this can taste awesome. Sometimes I just drink a protein shake and eat whole wheat waffles with peanut butter, banana and sugar free syrup. Also good is 1 cup of cooked oatmeal with 2 scoops of protein powder mixed in with milk, cinnamon and sugar free syrup. Each of these choices take less than 15 minutes to prepare and keeps me full until my next meal, which is only 3 hours away.

 On Monday Sept. 22, I will be starting an 8 week push to add muscle. I will be using Legal Gear’s Methyl 1-D and 1-GH-1 for 4 weeks and Tribulus, Chrysin and creatine for 4 weeks. This will be above my normal supplementation of whey, multi-vitamin and BCAA’s. I have read alot of praise for these products from men my age and will be posting updates throughout the 8 weeks in this Bodyblog and I will post a review for the legal gear products afterward on my Bodyspace page. My diet will remain the same so it will be clearer what effect the supplements have on me. My training split will be as follows: Mon- chest, Tue- back and biceps, Wed- off, Thu- legs, Fri- shoulders and triceps, Sat and Sun- off. Abs will be on alternating days with calves. Starting body composition is: 159.4 pounds; 10% bodyfat so that is 143.5 pounds of lean mass and 15.9 pounds of fat. I will be posting before progress pics shortly on my Bodyspace page. My goals are to continue to add muscle with as little fat as possible. My plan is to continue to seek out the best supplements that can help me reach my goals and to give honest reviews of the different products that I use.

 A friend came up to me the other day and mentioned , that it seemed like I was keeping the weight I lost off, and that I looked more muscular in the chest and shoulders. I had forgotten what that felt like, to have someone notice the hard work you’re putting into your body. The motivation you get to stick with what you are doing is incredible.
