So ironic for me to see this thread, my buddy was just asking me about it.

Im an avid Gym workout-er for the past 6 years, I hear good things about the work out, but I mostly here that most people stop after a few weeks due to lack of motivation.

That's the hardest part about a "home" work out.

Good luck to everyone!

Their is no way in hell you can lose motivation dude.

How long have you been doing it for? I started week 2 and theirs no way Im quieting or turning back. Because I realized I finished week 1 which most people cant even do fully or correctly. This work is so hard thats whats your sucked into it, its really hard to get out.


Just think about all the hours and days you spent... GONE!!


I think whats making you lose the motivation, is the fact that your not seeing any differences? Which is cool because your doing 2 things wrong. 1. Your not doing the workout correctly or 2. Your diet needs to be changed.

I tend to wear big ass clothes when I go out, school, workout, eat, sleep, etc.. so I wont see myself in the mirror and say "I havnt changed, wtf?" but in reality you may have buy your so used to seeing your body everyday that you cant see a difference.

Just wear big and baggy clothes for a week or 2 and take it off and see a difference. Or just avoid the mirrors lol

You're right. I work from home and most of the time I'm in a wife beater or no shirt (benefits of working from home ) so I see my body all the time. I am seeing results but it takes so much energy out of me I don't know how I'm gonna do it once school starts too. It's ok though I've decided to stick with it for 90 days. If it works then I'll continue doing it.

Yea dude. Look up pre workout drinks. No Gatorade and shit.

I used to take NO Explode for about a year. Trust me, it did its work every time. But over a period I got used to the feeling so I added more scoops which was a big mistake. My muscles got bigger becuase I drank water with it. It has a very small amount of creatine I believe. But once I got off of it, my mucles went down. So I dont know what to tell you...

Try taking it once in a while.

One drink that fuckn gets me pumped and works 1000000% of the time and has ZERO creatine is. "ENDORUSH," That shit works so good bro and best part is that they come already made in bottles. all you do is drink it haha. Its kind of expensive though. My 24 Hour Fitness sells them for $4.50 each bottle. Its 4 servings. But your only allowed to have 2 servings a day (or workout). So basically you can drink half the bottle (every 30 mins, so take note). The reason why iyou can only take 2 servings is becuase some idiots drink the whole entire thing and their heart rate go sky high and they have to be rushed to the hospital. I have seen this happen, not pretty.

But do some research at bodybuilding.com lol

Thats where I got all this info

bodybuilding.com is a great site...lots of info in there. as far as noticing changes...i knew i wouldn't be able to avoid the mirror thing because there's a huge one staring at me as soon as i get out of the shower. that is one of the main reasons i had my gf take pictures of me...so i can do a side by side comparison after day 30, 60, and 90. i've also tightend up my diet considerably...so if i don't notice a difference after day 60...i'm going to drive my car off a cliff.

i do have a serious question though. i'm doing the Lean program...and i noticed that Plyometrics is not part of the program. i was going to substitute Yoga day with the Plyometrics workout. does anyone foresee any negative aspects to doing this?

Thats weird I dont know why its not in there. Have you done plyo before? If you havnt, Yoga X is going to be like Hawaii beach status laying down drinking ice cold beer compared to the hell gates of plyo lmao.

Yoga is only easy if your dogging the routine. If you're closing in on 90 degree angles with your lead leg in the stances then you will be sweating your butt off and working your quads extremely hard. Plus, yoga has the ab routine near the end that is very beneficial.

Someone asked about subbing plyo for yoga. I wouldn't do it. I'd sub plyo for cardio X in the lean schedule. That would make that schedule much tougher.

I've done them all and plyo is harder than yoga but yoga is much harder than cardio x.

So I've noticed that I got kinda lazy/no energy around so I bought a 12-pack of Endorush. So as far as I know I'm supposed to take 1/4 of the bottle (4oz) and wait 30 minutes to see how my body respond and then take another 4oz (1 serving) if I feel like I need it right? I'm asking because your post is a little confusing as you said take you're only allowed 2 servings a day but that you take half a bottle (2 servings) every 30 minutes. Thanks for the help! Imma try it out tomorrow and see if I can work my ass off.

No Gatorade and NO "Natural Juices." I dont care if the juice is from Wholefoods or Gelsons or anywhere. It has sugar, whether its natural or not its not good for you if your trying to lose weight and get abs or bulk. You cant cheat.

I dont care if its G2* Gatorade. Its processed sugar. Its funny cuz natural juice is when you take raw fruit and squeeze it into a cup and drink it. Thats natural and thats okay time to time.

Protein shakes are good no doubt. I take 1 before a workout and 1 right after.

Be careful with "tea's," for which it has a lot of sodium depending on how you make it which your body does not need.

The only think you can drink besides a protein shake is water. Because dont forget if your bulking, your putting a lot of protein and stress on your liver whihc water helps flush out. So in a given time in a day their is no time to drink anything but water.

Think it this way. Eveytime you chose something else to drink besides water your taking a step back to your goal.

Water:

0 calories
0 carbs
0 sodium
0 SUGAR.

Drink it, love it, learn it.

Which ever time you workout in a day. Start your workout and LOOK AT THE TIME and drink 1oz (1/4 of the bottle) of it. Your going to feel a rush into your body and heart and your ganna get fuckn pumped. Im not kidding you. Is this your first time? lol

So after you looked at the time and drank 1oz only! track the time and wait till 30 min passes and then drink another 1oz and thats it FOR THAT DAY (You have consumed 2oz). After your take it the 2nd time when 30 mins pass you will be wires for another 30 min.

So my advice is, lift heavy and do all your hard workouts first when you have ENDORUSH INSIDE you so you wont be tired later when your doing easy or weak workouts.

Also, do not take ENDORUSH everyday. You will create tolerance and you will slowly lose the effect and rush of the drink quickly. So take it every other day or every 3 days. So you can keep the distance between you and the effect on the rush!

Finally, you save the other 2oz the next gym day and drink 1 oz every 30 mins and so forth. The instruction are on the bottle just in case. So dont drink the whole thing, your heart will explode!

Good luck

Yea it good once in a while. But I used to drink juice also until I got serious and strict with my body. Everyone is different but sugar in juice fucked me over. Something you can try to do is. Eat the skin or the "peeling," of any fruit. It has 45% of the nutrients you need. But I tired eating the skin of the banana and its hard. Apples and orange and lemons are the easiest to eat for the skin and peel.

Yea dude. Fuckn yoga is 1 hour and 30 mins of shit. I know it helps grow the muscles and body but fuck, its so boring.

Thanks for clearing that up! Yeah it's my first time taking it. I saw your recommendation and felt like I need a little boost in energy so I bought a case. I actually just got it a few hours ago and haven't even open it yet. I'll take it tomorrow and see how the workout goes.

this made me laugh cuz i thought the exact same thing when it came to Yoga day...and its an hour and a half!! i did it for like 10min and turned it off. i'm probably gonna sub in Plyo for it...since Plyo isn't part of the Lean routine.

Okay so I took the Endorush today like it said (1 serving-4 oz and then another serving 30 minutes after). I started my work out about 5-10 minutes after taking the first one since I don't know how long the effect would last. So about 20 or so minutes in I took the 2nd serving and really didn't feel much. I was kind of expecting like a rush of energy or getting hella pumped for the workout but didn't get it.

On the other hand, I did finish my work out this time. Before I stopped around 30-40 minutes in but actually done about 80 minutes this time (with breaks in between of course). So I don't know if that was the supplement working or not. Granted it's only the first time taking it but so far I'm on the fence. BTW, I could drink a cup of espresso and fall asleep in like an hour or two so maybe that's why I didn't feel the rush?
