Well I’m taking back the gym routine again, which is great and a lot of fun. So yesterday I made a drop at GNC to buy some supplements, since I’m lacking in protein for repairing the muscles I tore. Also I decided to drop hydroxycut (The slimming pill from GNC) since I felt that iw as not only not getting the results stated but because it was just giving me some negative effects. Like spinning head, slight dizziness, so figure it’s best to stop taking the pills.

SO instead I spent around a good RM200plus on protein powder called Syntha-6, chocolate flavour and on anti-fatigue caplets by muscle tech. The protein powder is meant mostly for after workout to repair your so torn muscles. Taste is pretty good, especially when mixed with a good milo. Don’t mix with milk, I think you’ll have a an over dose of sweetness. I took to cups of cold milo with a good spoonful of it. By the way the spoon, if you get Syntha-6, it is stupidly buried in the middle of the bottle. I hadn’t realised until after i was pouring it out into a different container.


Here’s my new protein shake, I love the bottle. I’m going to turn it into a lamp when I’m through with it.

Originally I wanted creatine, since I want to go back to doing the explosive workouts, like plyometrics to give me the extra push. But after much persuasion, I went for Gakic, the anti-fatigue caplets. It’s a heck of a price at RM538 for 128 caplets. The dosage for men in US is round 8 caplets (my gosh!!!!) per day and only while exercising.

Males: my friend whom I’m sharing it with, started off with two caplets.
Females: the lady at the store recommended to start it off with just half a caplet per session and then work your way to slowly to 1. I took 1 on the first day, just to give an extra kick.

So results? Well cardio wise, there was not much kick, however during the weight training period. We seemed to have quite a fair bit too keep pushing. In all fairness, if we hadn’t gone for an hour on cardio alone I think the muscles could have still been able to push more iron, or more reps in my case. I wanna be lean not mean. Hehehe.

SO that was day one, but lets see what happens with the rest of the month with Gakic.
