I have always been a skinny guy...all through high school I was 5'9 130 lbs and really low body fat. I am now 22 (almost 23) and am 5'9 178 lbs....this really just snuck up on me in the past year, so I have a little spare tire. Around thanksgiving time I started hitting the gym with a crappy routine and mild cardio to try and burn weight but I wasn't seeing any gains or improvement. Around the new year I started getting mroe serious with the gym and more serious on the cardio and still not seeing any weight come off or lose the gut. I do feel better and have more energy and have started making gains in strength and size in my shoulders, chest and arms..

Jump start to last week, on the reccomendation of a few people on LS2.com I decided to do this popular stack that seems to be safe and worked well for others.

I purchased:

Glucorell-R
Sesapure
Yohimburn topical
Pure Cee Creatine
Thermorexin
Maximum protein brand whey protein

I started with the supplements yesterday and have now been to the gym twice with them. It may be in my head or it may be real but I feel I am lifting harder and have more energy not only at the gym but throughout the day. The only drawback so far is I have trouble sleeping (took one of the pills too close to bedtime) and I find myself getting dehydrated quickly so I carry water everywhere I go and drink a ton of it.

I am thinking I will update this thread daily if I have the time and weekly with pictures.

First pic:

Day 1 on the supplements, after a workout but I had 2 bottles of water and a protein drink my my stomach...








and for reference here is what I looked like when I was 18 and lean

Something to keep in mind, is that a lot of these changes take time. Most people don't see any results in their first few weeks, and if you are doing mild exercise, your results will be, well, mild.

Most important question is, how is your diet? That's half the battle right there.

It's great you are addressing your little tire right now, instead of later, because belly fat is the worst kind of fat to have...(we have numerous studies posted here on belly fat and cardiovascular disease).

If you work out too close to bedtime that may make it harder to pass out for the night.

Lastly, make sure you get plenty of sleep. If you're not getting 8 hours, you are missing out on not only potential muscle growth, but fat loss as well.

I definitely approve of your supplement choices.


Good luck and keep us posted!



P.S., I'm going to move this to the blog section, where we encourage all our members to keep their logs of their progress.
