Hi Julie,

What supplements and what diet did you use after you pregnancy to get in competition shape? Have you ever used GH factor and Muscle Synergy?

Lisa

After my son was born I began using Muscle Provider, Ultra Size and Ms. Power Pack. Mark worked with me on a diet (Gain lean/loss fat) and I added in a few more calories (I think about 400) to account for nursing.

Before my last contest I used GH Factor to help bring in my legs and was very happy with the results. I plan to use it again in a few weeks as I am currently @ 7.5 weeks out.

I use and love Synergy now! It has really helped me as I have been trying to gain muscle and actually helps to fight fatigue from some of the sleep dep. - Yes 16 months old and we are almost sleeping through the night Hee Hee

Hi Julie.

I just purchased the Synergy and my show is not until July 31, 2004. How soon should I stop taking in befor my show. also how many weeks out do you start taking the GH Factor to help bring in your legs would that be about 4 weeks out and also how much. Thanks so much

How does GH factor help with "bringing in" your legs? Maybe I need to add that back in my diet.

I am not sure "how" it works but it does help with the legs. Must be something to do with fat metabolism as it leans them out more... I statred using GH Factor at twelve weeks out, but only in the morning and before bed. I will begin to take it before meals w/ Lean Out next week.

Do any of you guyz know when to stop taking all your supplements or do you take them right up to the day of the show? My show is on the 20th so Im just trying to get everything straightened out with my schedule of course! Have to have my schedule or I'll never know where my A** is these days!TeeHee

Melissa: Most supps are kept in right till the day of the show.. and some are even doubled up the final week(s). For example, U-40's and ER/LO can be doubled the final week based on your condition. It's very individual though - so I'd ask a Bev advisor. Also, they may want you to substitute some supps with others - i.e. Muscularity for Mass. I always get advise from my advisor on what I should keep/drop. I took 6-8 GH factor last Fall before hitting the stage. That seemed to help me.
