I've changed my mind once more. I will take 6 per day and if thightness occurs, then i will default to 4.
Today has been one of "those" days. Its going well but i feel spaced out.

Yeah, i took some on a disposable camera. I still have a bunch of photos to take. So i figured i would wait till the end of the test and finish off the role and get them developed and posted.

So far no problems with 6 caps per day, however it is only the 3rd day.

I have been battling a massive migrane headache the last 3 days. It shut me down saturday afternoon. I have been functional yesterday and today but at a lower level. I have been getting migranes since i was 10 yrs old. I had a minor head injury, however i have recovered about 95% since then. But occasionally the migranes like to come out due to many different possibilites. If my protein level is too low and my carbs are too high, this could cause a migraine. Dehydration and tight shoulder/neck muscles will most likely cause one as well. There are warning signs, which i know very well and i can usually stop a migrane before it gets bad. However there are times where nothing i do will matter. This is one of those times. This migrane is a dehydrated, tight muscle migrane. These are the hard ones to relieve. I understand MP has a habit of hogging nutrients for itself, so i cannot rule this out as a possible cause. I have also had tight muscles for a lot longer than i started to use MP. My chiropractor refers to it as Tight Muscle Syndrome. I believe this and understand that I psychologically create this via emotions, stress, etc. This problem is a little harder to correct (currently under construction), so MP will have to be dropped to 4 per day as its a simplist way to relieve some tightness.

It's a great supplement and i will finish my beta test.

I had a good back workout today. I still have a slight migrane but working the tight muscles helped relax them a bit. My weight has been hanging in at 213. My nutrition could be better and i am trying to get that back in order. I'm looking forward to some great post test photos.

My workout frequency has increased. Im not having any over tight muscle problems since i decreased to 4 per day. Everything is coming along nicely with MP. I added Vault by San to my supplementation. Its a mix of V12 turbo and CM2. It tastes bad but works well. My weight tonight is 212lbs.

I have had the flu for the last 2 days. I havent been able to keep anything down except for water.
The good thing is i lost 4lbs during this time, the bad news is i will gain it back asap. Its been a rough few months but i will make to the end of this beta test...sometime.

My days are becoming difficult. It took 4 days to get over the flu and now i have a cold. I havent taken MP during this time and probably wont until my health is back to 100%.

The first phase of MP went really well, the second phase falls a little short of a disaster. I have been sick 3 times, I've had tight leg and back muscles, i had some bouts with migraines, etc. Out of these problems, the tight muscles are a side effect of 8 caps per day of MP. I've had no problems with 4 caps per day. I have 7 days of product left before this beta test is over. Im going to hit these 7 days hard and will hopefully finish on all cylinders. I will restart (again) in the morning.

Tonights Weight: 208lbs

Any one paying attention any more? Any one? Any one?

I had a good chest workout yesterday and a good back workout today. I still have a cold and my strength is starting to come back. My calorie intake is still a little low due to my almost nonexistant appetite, but it is increasing daily.

I am paying attention.
I just ordered my first bottle of mp.

I am curious as to how much to take, the bottle says 4 pills a day, but I notice that you have taken up to 8 pills a day.

Okay people are reading.

tdf700, since this is a beta test, the guys at design supps probably wanted to know the side effects, if any, at a higher dosage. The most common is hamstring/calf tightness, which i experienced. It became overwhelming during the second phase which is why i cut it down to 4. Im not having any problems at this level.

Today was suppost to be a leg day but my right hamstring is still sore from the weekend. I strained it saturday night shooting pumpkins out of a giant sling shot at Swank Farms in Hollister. I took my step son to the corn maze and haunted ranch. They also had a corn cannon, similar to a potato gun, but the generator ran out of gas and we couldnt do that. We had fun.

I'll hit legs tomorrow.

I was able to get in a leg workout today. I wasnt sure i was going to make it as work has been kicking me around all day. I took it lighter than usual, so i dont reaggravate my right hamstring. My strength is almost back 100% from being sick. Only a few more days till im done with MP.

I finished off my second bottle of MP last night and here is today's measurements. I took pix's as well and I should have them posted by thursday night or friday morning.

Starting Measurements:
Weight: 218lbs
Height: 6'4"
Neck: 17
Chest: 41.5
Shoulders: 52
Waist: 36
Hips: 43
Right Thigh: 24.5
Left Thigh: 24.5
Right Calf: 15.5
Left Calf: 15.5
Right Upper Arm: 14
Left Upper Arm: 14
Right Forearm: 13
Left Forearm: 13

Ending Measurements:
Weight: 208lbs
Height: 6'4"
Neck: 17
Chest: 41
Shoulders: 51
Waist: 35
Hips: 42.5
Right Thigh: 24
Left Thigh: 24
Right Calf: 15
Left Calf: 15
Right Upper Arm: 14
Left Upper Arm: 14
Right Forearm: 12.5
Left Forearm: 12.5

Difference

Weight: -10lbs
Height: same
Neck: same
Chest: -0.5
Shoulders: -1
Waist: -1
Hips: -0.5
Right Thigh: -0.5
Left Thigh: -0.5
Right Calf: -0.5
Left Calf: -0.5
Right Upper Arm: same
Left Upper Arm: same
Right Forearm: -0.5
Left Forearm: -0.5

Only a few areas stayed the same. Im sure the measurements would be a little difference if i werent sick for 2 weeks. I couldve held onto more muscle if it werent for that. Either way, i feel great and much lighter with more muscle definition.

Wade: I have followed your progress, and in some cases, lack of progress due to illness, with great interest. Thank you for beta testing MP for us. I will begin my contest diet prep on January 1st for a March 18th competition. I'm not really sure if MP should be the fat burning/cutting supplement of choice for someone who starts at around 10% body fat and needs to cut to less than 4% in about 10 weeks. I will also need to lose about 10-12 pounds during that same period. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Nice results.

Do you feel like you've actually lost muscle due to the illness?

I find that during MP cycles my arms tend to stay the same despite getting leaner. The best i can attribute this is that MP increases my insulin sensitivty so much that i actually add some muscle despite dieting.
