Sorry for the slight delay here guys and girls. I had a vacation planned which was canceled due to Hurricane Dean. Let's get on with it!

4 strength/hypertrophy sessions per week - both followed by 15-30 mins. of PWO cardio

Diet:
Cutting.

Initial impression:
Applied this morning after waking - smell is much more tolerable than with LU or LY. Same smell pretty much but I at least feel like I won't be walking around stinking like a vet's office or something. Like everyone else said, it is thicker and creamier....mmmm....than LU or LY. Yes, it is indeed lotion-like. I applied about 30 mins. ago and I don't feel a tingle, burn, icy-hot sensation, or anything else.

Taken this morning - looks like my vacation from eating responsibly has packed on a solid 5. Awesome.

Somebody's mirror needs cleaning.

Seriously. I live with a roommate and I can't clean EVERYTHING in the house!

Solid.

Quick update from day 1....

Waited an hour after first application and then hit the gym for some stretching/tanning/AM cardio. I definitely noticed an increased amount of sweat coming from my stomach judged by the rapid soaking of my cotton t-shirt. The smell was present, but not as overpowering as the Lipoderm series (i.e. I didn't scare girls away - well at least not my smell). After the workout, I noticed a nice cooling sensation that lasted for about an hour - like a mild icy/hot on the icy side.

Showered, hit the gym a few hours later for a chest/shoulder/tri sesh and then back home to shower and scrub the crap out of my stomach with that apricot facial scrub stuff. I figure I should have a nice clean prep area now for my nightly app. Popped 5 squirts this time - 4 on stomach and 1 spread on love handles. Not sure if it's the Napalm, but I'm sweating my balls off here and it is only 70 degrees.

Definitely notice an increase in perceived temperature at the application site for about an hour and a half after application. The skin turns red and feels hot, but is actually no warmer than the surrounding tissue to the touch. I laid down for bed about 30 mins. post app last night and as soon as I put a sheet over me it felt like a heating pad was on my stomach.

Update after week 1: I think I'm starting to see some results. Weight is -2 lbs. this week from diet/training and also from eating half a box of Dreamfields Rotini on Fri. night and then subsequently spending all day yesterday in gut wrenching abdominal torture which involved multiple trips to the bathroom.

I'm noticing a hint of definition by my sternal notch but its hard to tell with the water retention. Also, this stuff is very difficult to wash off your hands and so far this week I have managed to get some in my eyes and on my lips which was not very fun. Use gloves or a plastic bag like Kimbo does.

about a week and a half in and I'm starting to see a definite reduction in the upper abdominals. I switched up my application to top 4 area of abs and 1 pump on each love handle. I think this will showcase the results better since there is no way any of the lower abs will be seen by the end of this trial. Nothing else to report, just straight results and I can't wait to see this in another 2 1/2 weeks!

Here are some fresh pics from 2 weeks in. About 1/2 a bottle left. Bloated from tailgating yesterday so admittedly these aren't the best shots. Weight remains unchanged from the start.

nice progress in 2 weeks jd

Thanks for the support but are you sure we are looking at the same pics??? hehe

In other news...I just washed my sheets and Napalm has left a nice big stain in my 800 ct. Ivory Whites.....damn!

Still rollin' but nothing new to report really. Still dropping lbs. and showing slightly more definition. This should be the last week but we'll see how the bottle holds up. FWIW I applied and then went tanning about 30 mins. later and to my surprise nothing awesome happened....I was hoping for a super reaction, skin melting off, fat instantly vaporizing, SOMETHING. But anyway, it appears to be a safe move if you are thinking of such a thing.

The fat vaporizing product is still under development, but you'll get your surgery-like results from an Avant topical shortly.





Disclaimer: I am full of shit.

Tomorrow is the last day of my trial. Nothing new to report aside from some fat loss and a bit more definition. Pictures and final stats to follow tomorrow.

Bump...interested to see your final results.

Sorry for the delay guys...life gets in the way sometimes. I had a little more than I thought left and have been applying throughout the week, though tomorrow will likely be the last of it. Pics will have to wait until this weekend which should give plenty of time for any leftover water retention to subside.

That happened to me too...I thought I was at the end everyday for a week.

Looks good!

Anyone else notice a Vick's Vaporub-esque effect when applying this stuff and then doing cardio? After about 20 mins. and some excessive abdominal perspiration I was huffing fumes like a 7th grader in dad's garage. The smell is strong and it led to some wicked coughing bouts on my part. Not the first time this has happened either, just the first time I remembered to post about it.

Nope...after application I would try to wait at least 6 hours prior to sweating.

at 2x apps. a day that's 12 hours of NOTHING! I give it half an hour, just like I did with my lipoderm, but this stuff seems to reactivate with a little sweat

Post pics. Weight is -4 lbs. Haven't taken skinfolds. Overall I was pleased with the product but it will probably be of more use to me if I drop a few more pounds first. Thanks for the opportunity Avant!
