Weight Gain with PhD ISO7!?!?

SunshineDiver — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 17:14:12 GMT

Hey,

So I've been using ISO7 for about a week now and today on my weekly weigh in it shows that i am 4 pounds heavier :S.

I am on a calorie deficit at the moment and my diet feels right so I am just curious as to what could cause me to be 4 pounds heavier in a week??? Is it maybe the creatine or any of the other bit n bobs in the ISO7.

The weight gain doesn't bother me as I know i've not put on fat. Just me being curious :p

Dear Monster Supplements,

My kitten seems to love the boxes you send supplements out in. He's hiding in it as if it's a little fortress from which to pounce at me from. 'Mrow!' he exclaims happily.

Walk on music...

I have been thinking of asking my gym manager to play a walk on track everytime I am about to enter the weights room to announce my inpending presence. Got me wondering what tracks you guys would choose as your gym walk on music and what you think would suit your forum buddies...

Aspartame??????

JayKay — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 08:42:40 GMT

Hey guys,

I received my free samples from Sci-Tec last night (Thanks CTP - Got about 8 different ones) and I noticed that a few of them were sweetened with aspartame... Now I've seen on lots of different supplements the statement "Aspartame Free", and was just wondering what it is really ?

Cheers,

JayKay

Supplement mini-tubs...

Tank — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 16:37:24 GMT

Hokay, so I'm looking for a way to cart a shake or two to work to keep me going. Can't really afford RTDs so are there any small tubs that would hold one serving? Sort of like an old camera film case I guess.

recommend me some songs

-AC- — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 16:29:26 GMT

i want to download some new songs for my ipod but can think of any.

my taste in music is good dubstep, RnB, anything to do with eminem (although ive got all his good tracks lol), heavy dance music or some good classic rock ballads jsut to mix things up lol.

any ideas guys?

i watched it with 2 muslim friends and thought they might be offended but they were literally crying with laughter.

if anyone hasnt seen it i thoroughly recommend it.

Scared of the scales!

CTP — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 08:49:27 GMT

Does anyone else ever feel a little intimidated before stepping on the scales to do the weekly weigh in?

Even worse - I have digital scales and when I step on them my weigth always shoots up to 270lbs mark, then as it calibrates comes down closer to my weight, but for a moment or two itll bounce about my weight - 206, 212,209, 208, and then settle on my actual weight... it always makes my throat go dry!

This is my last blog/Thread by the way. As this shows that I have far too much free time to waste on nothing. Even tho it only takes me 5 minutes to write a blog or post a reply to some thread. I have better things to do. I only have one goal and that’s to build a perfect body. So until we meet again farewell everyone on here. One more thing Keep fit and stay active no matter what, your health is more important than any thing else. Don't become that fat slob sat at the desk at work dreaming over ice cream Sundays, lmao good bye everyone.

Where is Red Devil???

warren1987 — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 21:05:17 GMT

Was going to post this last week but after reading he'd come down with a severe bought of man flu I thought I'd give it a week but it's been a good few weeks now since I've seen a post off him, anybody knows where he is? I know he'd radically changed his diet and wasn't seeing the results he wanted just hoping he's not thrown in the towel, where are you Red Devil????

Starting My Cut

Steve — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 11:47:41 GMT

Hey guys, wanting to start my cut real soon, As ive mentioned in another thread I pretty much have all my supps in place for doing it and have a good idea of what food Im going to be eating,

Just wanted some advice on a few things first though,

Firstly, As ive been bulking for a while now how quickly should I start cutting, I had a right blow out over the weekend as I went camping so have had pub food and a Nandos yesterday (plenty of carbs) so do I come off my carbs slowly ? If so how long ? Or should I just start cutting straight away and struggle through it for the first few days ?

Ive been on a fairly high carb diet for the past few months now whilst still keeping my bodyfat around the 18-19% mark, set my goal at getting to the 15% mark, anything lower than this will be a bonus.

As eager as I am to start I have heard I should come off carbs slowly but dont know how long I should leave it.

Second thing is my cheat day, do I really need one ? Is the science behind this that every so often your body gets a lot of naughty food so you wont store as much once you stop cutting, I was planning on leaving it about 2 weeks before I had a cheat day, Also does the cheat day consist of eating what the hell you want or should you still limit yourself to a certain amount of carbs, protein, fats etc ?

Finally, my workout routine usually involves me doing drop sets, Ill start off heavy and then drop down and do less reps, Should i continue to work like this whilst doing a cut or should I look at doing 3x10 for example.

Anyway that will do for now, thanks a lot for reading haha

Take it easy everyone.
