12/23/09: Had a couple of solid training sessions this week--shoulders and arms. Moving legs to either today or tomorrow b/c the many hours of shoveling took a toll on my lower back and legs (I shovel by squatting down to pick up the snow--allows you to lift more snow which in turn, helps to clear things up quicker) so it was like having a leg and lower back workout, lol. Looking forward to hitting 'em hard again though. I feel with Project Z, I'm recovering quicker from my recent workouts and sleeping very soundly at night. I'm a frequent waker upper at night and lately, I wake up only once per night or not all.
12/26/09: Took a few days off from lifting b/c of the holidays. Had some nice r&r and hit it hard today w/ legs. Had great energy during the workout and feel like I've recovered well by taking a few days off and also with Z in my arsenal. Looking forward to a new week of strong workouts.
so J, say my usual nighttime ritual is 1 scoop milk and egg protein and 1 scoop RG right before bed...where would z fit in? as in when would i take the product...assuming that is that this is a pre-bed product

Don't assume anything yet, lol. I'll keep ya posted as we get closer to revealing exactly what Project Z is.

12/29/09: With a few solid workouts under my belt this week, I'm feeling well-rested and recovered. I've been able to take off a few extra days in between workouts which helps as well. Going to start up a 5/3/1 program so that I can concentrate on increasing some core lifts--bench press, squats, deads, shoulder press. Let's see how it goes while on Z. Stay tuned.
1/4/10: Had some extremely solid workouts over the break. I was able to get some good rest, took some targeted time off in between workouts and ate some solid bulk meals. One thing that I've done over the past month or so is to drink a carb drink throughout the day to help add extra calories into my diet. I sip on an extra 80-100g of carbs (from CARB Max) throughout the day and I notice by having the extra carbs in my system, I'm much stronger for my workouts. In terms of Project Z, I'm happy with the results so far. Seems to be on par with what its focus is.
1/9/10: I've been noticing better and better recovery times between workouts (which is a combo of taking more time off in between the hardest workouts (legs & back) and eating quality foods. The dose of Project Z seems to be helping me rest better and wake up more refreshed. Very pleased so far.
I like the addition of the carb drink. Have you thought about adding a BCAA or EAA kicker to it. Nothing like a steady stream of aminos and carbs all day long.
Z is just now starting to kick in for me... I was beginning to feel left out, haha. Time to turn my intensity to an 11!
Great stuff in here, J!!! Any idea of how much solid weight gain you've made, since the addition of Z and the carb drink...???
I would estimate about 2-3lb but I notice much more muscle fullness and better recovery since I've been running the two.

I actually add a pack of Nitro along with 2 of drinks. I like to open up the caps and empty 'em into the mix. Can't beat having a steady stream of amino acids in your system.
Nice. I'm glad to hear that the the Z is kicking in for you. Didn't want you to be left out of the fun, lol.

1/18/10: Been having solid workout after solid workout. The key has been eating and training consistently. I definitely feel Project Z in full force now. I'm feeling much more refreshed after hard training sessions and much stronger during the sessions. I've also been sleeping earlier and waking up earlier which helps me kick off my day the right way. The biggest plus I've notice is less muscle soreness and for some reason my appetite is through the roof. I love it b/c I'm able to pack in more calories which is helping fuel my workouts and my muscles. Just about through my can and can't wait to get my hands on more.
