Hello,
I am rather new at this but I have been training hard for 4 months now. My results are more than I have ever dreamed of. I do need some advice from people who have been at it alot longer than me . Below is a brief description of what I have been doing over the past 4 months :
First of all my size.. I am 5'8" and 165 pounds at start of program.. Small, slender build.. No chest, arms, Just scronny :)
Now for the program :
4 months so far..
4 days a weeK :
Monday - 2 hours - Chest, Back, Biceps, Calves, Abs
Tuesday - 1 1/2 - Legs, Shoulders, Triceps, Calves, Abs
Off WEdnesday
Thursday Repeat of Monday except alternate Exercises
Friday - Repeat of Tuesday except alternate Exercises
We started out the first few weeks doing one muscle group per day. I did not like that, so we doubled our program. I went from struggling to bench press 135 lbs to now I can do 245 with ease and max out a around 280. I have gained about 15 pounds so far. My muscles are REALLY define and everyone around me thinks I am on ROIDS <-- Ha Ha..
This is my delima.. I have been experimenting with supplements for the entire workout program. From jump I have been taking Protein drinks at least twice a day and using Ripped Fuel ( Non- Ephedrine formula ). About the middle of month 3 I started with the creative TRAC ( Orange Flavor ) and started the Product Powder Twin Labs Andro Nitra 1-AD EC ( Something like that ) I took that for 3 weeks and cycled off for 2 like it said. I just got back on it recently as I liked the results..
HEre is the delima... I want to build UNGODLY strenght and get ripped as possible without getting way to bulked up... I have heard mixed results with the product called NO2... Everyone that I have talked to says this product will give you UNBELIEVABLE results... PLease tell me what you think of this, and if I start taking it fir the 21 days it says to, should I get off the Andro Nitrate Protein powder and use a regular one.
Also as a side not.. HELP me with my abs.. What do I do to get the 6 pack abs.. My abs are rock hard but hidden under a layer of Fat... I work my abs all 4 days of my workout program.. Any advice on my program and supplements would be greatly appreciated.

Okay this what I can tell you about N02. I used the stuff a couple of months ago and I hate to disappoint you but it didn't do jack for me! But before you put off the idea of using it let me just say EVERYBODY is different in their own way. Meaning just cause it didn't work for me that doesn't necessarily mean it won't work for you. I talked to one of the employees at GNC and he said alot of guys came back for a refund cause it didn't work for them. On the other hand he also said that alot of guys said it gave them tremendous results! So like I said people are different and have different reactions to different supplements. What I recommend is you do what I did. I bought some NO2 at GNC. I tried it and followed the directions EXACTLY. I used up the bottle until almost empty. Since I felt no effect I left maybe a couple of days worth of pills in it and I returned the bottle for a full refund. You can do that with any supplement at GNC. I don't know if you're a member, but if you are not I highly recommend becoming one so you can always return any product if not satisfied. So I hope the stuff works for you but if it doesn't you can always return it and have tried it for free. Not a bad idea! I hope I was helpful, goodluck and keep me posted on what you're planning on doing...

Save your money on NO2. If you must, just use creatine. It works.
