    Week Three: Heading into this week I was feeling pretty driven knowing my changes should begin showing. Not that I was not driven the previous weeks, I was just a little more excited to start noticing the effects. My body has been looking a little thicker and more filled out, with the combination of high calories and the AMS products its bound to happen. The best thing I'm noticing is that my stomach and arms are starting to not only look thicker but a little more defined. My weight has went up about about 6lbs since week 1, putting me at 191lbs from my previous 184lbs.

    Diet: Calorie intake is hanging around the 3200 mark consistently, sometimes more than that depending on if I eat out at all. Meals have been nice and lean with plenty of chicken and turkey (Love a good chef salad). As for the carbs/protein/fat ratio I'm aiming at a 45/35/20 mix to get plenty of my macros from the right sources to build lean muscle and also put on a little something extra for the bulk. My diet is clean and I try to stay away from the idea behind dirty bulks because my core is a difficult area to tone up once it is gone.

    Workouts: Everyday in the gym is better than the one before it seems like. I always go in with an intense and energetic focus that drives me through the workout with what seems like no fatigue. My pre workouts are stimulant free so naturally I was worried about my energy and focus for the long days at the gym, but it seems that the 4AD being dosed pre workout plus the 1Andro and Decavol through the day is plenty enough to keep me going. Everyone keeps warning me about the 1Andro and the fatigue it brings with it, but I have yet to experience anything of the sort. As far as I am concerned: with plenty of sleep, drive, and determination I will be able to fight any fatigue that may arise.

    Overall: I have to say I am rather pleased with the products this far. I was a bit skeptical at first as to what a stack like this might bring, but I am beginning to really see some good things. Granted its not dramatic gains that will make me the next Mr.O, but I am loving the results and am currently side effect free. Week 4 is about to be underway and I have nothing but positive to report at the moment. I have 5 weeks left on this cycle and I anxiously await what is to come. Hopefully I can avoid shutdown or fatigue like I have heard the horror stories about. I have not ever experienced them in past AMS cycles, but this is the longest one I have done so only time will tell if it is to good to be true. Wish Me Luck!!

    Week Four: This was probably my toughest week. Suffered a hand injury that created a bit of ligament damage and upper body lifts were limited due to issues of gripping weights. However I did find ways around it and still got my workouts in. The energy and fatigue is still fine and not an issue at all, hoping it stays this way. As for gains, weight is up to 192lbs now putting me 8lbs up from my starting weight.

    Diet: This was strict this week and I really watched my intake of dirty calories and carbs because my workouts were somewhat limited with the hand and I didn't want to pack on to many unused dirty calories. Keeping proteins high and carbs higher! Timing is everything for the carbs and it's been working for me so far early morning and post workout, hope it stays this way.

    Workouts: Yes, the hand was an issue but I stayed on my discipline and never missed a day. I had to rely mainly on machines and spotter assistance due to my limited ability to grip weight, but the workout intensity stayed high and I didn't lose focus. The hand is pretty well heeled up and I may take a few more days to go easy on it, then I'm back to my original grind!

    Overall: Only gained a single 1lb this week but due to the hand I'm happy still. I'm scared of gaining fat, looking for lean bulk results, so my calories are clean and intensity is high. Hopefully I'll keep posting great numbers while packing on muscle and dropping that fat! This next month is my last on the cycle and I'm going to attack it and make it count! Thanks goes out to all those who are following!

    And as promised, here is my 1 month progression pic. I tried to make it as accurate as possible to show my gains. I tried standing in the same position, and even wore the same shorts. And unfortunately I still have the same tank-top-tan lines.

    Week Five: Week went great as usual. I had started the new months cycle this week which consists of:
    AMS Anabolic Growth Kit
    AMS Augmentor
    AMS Body Mortar
    AMS Nocturnabol
    GNC Mass XXX
    Creatine Monohydrate
    Gold Standard Whey
    Multivitamin
    Fish Oil
    Joint Help
    Cycle Support 2.0

    Diet: Still eating clean and lean, seeing some great results! The lean diet with high calorie and protein and carbs has been a great option, it's keeping my body leaned out (leaner than before cycle) and I'm still gaining weights and putting on muscle!

    Workouts: The lifts were great and pumps were greater! My energy and focus is insane during my lifts and I'm more motivated than ever! I started adding in a little bit more abs as well because I'd like to have some core results with this cycle. Hoping for a 6 pack eventually, have a slight 4 pack at the moment and had less than that starting the cycle. My workouts are intense and focused and it's paying off for me!

    Overall: The first month went phenomenal and the second month is only bound to be better. I'm excited to see what this month brings! My joint soreness has improved slightly and my energy is still normal at the least. This month is focused a little bit more on mass gain while staying lean, which is why I added the mass gainer. I will still be eating lean, just trying to up calories slightly. Stick around and see what the next month brings, I have a feeling it's going to be good!

    So I have received a few PM's from people asking about the AMS products and prices seeming a little high on certain items, so I've decided to help out anyone interested in the AMS products I'm cycling and post some nice promo codes that really help make things more affordable. All these codes are BOGO (buy 1 get 1) coupons that will allow you to get a product and receive a 2nd for free. They are only for the products I am cycling in case anyone likes my particular stack I'm running. These codes only work on the AMS and FRL websites.

    Nocturnabol BOGO - nocmazebogo

    Body Mortar BOGO - bmmazebogo

    Anabolic Growth Kit BOGO - agkmazebogo

    Augmentor BOGO - augmazebogo

    Reboot BOGO - rbmazebogo

    So the stack has been going great this week just as it had the weeks before. Except now I have possibly the best tasting Aminos I've ever had. The lemonade body mortar I added to the stack tastes amazing and at 2 scoops I get great intra workout recovery from it. Enjoying everything I've tried at AMS so far and I'll probably start looking to then more often.

    Week Six: I feel like first off I need to say that this was my best week I have had so far! The motivation has been on a whole different level and my drive and energy in the weight room is ridiculous. I am seeing some noticeable size gains and have been lifting weight no problem that I used to struggle repping with. I am seeing gains and so are the people around me. I have had several people comment on my changes walking around the gym and having everyone ask me the golden question - "so what are you taking"... Unfortunately the ones asking me dont even have their diet or workout plan in line yet so that is always my first bit of information I offer them!

    Diet: Needless to say, I practice what I preech. A clean diet is definitely within my practice, and it is paying off! I have been sticking to the lean meats and plenty of dark green and orange veggies, it seems sweet potatoes have been my go to the past 3 weeks for post workout carbs and they are delicous. I've been adding in a little less dairy than I was in the first few weeks trying to cut down fats a little but I havent seen much change from that yet. I'll just have to see how things go the next 2 weeks into my PCT before I can decide my diet post cycle.

    Workouts: As I said my workouts have been great! Lots of drive and focus, not to mention strength, each and every day I step into the gym. I'm up about 15lbs on my bench and about 20-25 on my squat but I cant quite remember my exact max before the cycle since when I'm off cycle I dont max much.

    Overall: All in all this is going to have to be one of my best cycles I've done and I am giving it a 9/10 right now due to the fact my joints are killing me. However, I cant blame that on the cycle completely because they have always gave me issues. I am up about 13-14lbs in weight consistently and I still have 2 weeks left on cycle, Im praying I keep a good amount of it post cycle. I'll just have to be strict with my workout and diet post cycle to ensure my gains are kept.

    About 1 week left before the cycle is over. This is the longest AMS cycle I had done (8 weeks) and just this week I've been experiencing a little bit of fatigue. Luckily it is very late into the cycle and I only have to power through one more week. The fatigue isn't awful yet, but I expect it may get worse over thus next week. Regardless, this cycle has been amazing and my gains, as well as my workouts, are unreal and I am completely satisfied with what I've experienced! Got my PCT prepped and ready to role after next week with some Nolva on standby if need be, but no gyno or shutdown as of now.
