The following information concerns a true and unsolicited testimonial from one of our actual customers.
In today's hustle and bustle world staying fit and healthy can be a real challenge. No one knows this better than Mike Symons. Like so many of us Mike works full-time (as a software engineer) and has a family (a wife and two children). Finding time to exercise and eat right had eluded Mike for years and it showed.
What sets Mike apart from the masses is that he decided to do something about his body and then actually accomplished his goal in a VERY dramatic fashion. When Mike first made the decision to get into shape he knew he had to have a plan. Mike turned to the internet in order gain the information he would need to formulate this plan. He eventually discovered www.wannabebig.com and began his research in earnest.

"I started doing research about strength training on Wannabebig and other websites. I soon realized just how little I knew about proper diet and training. Squats and deadlifts were foreign to me as was proper post-workout nutrition."
|
Mike developed a training plan which included weight training 3 times per week utilizing compound movements with heavy loads and low volume. He augmented his weight training with 6 days per week of cardio in the form of a brisk walk for 30 minutes.
During his time spent online Mike came across The Velocity Diet. (by Chris Shugart from T-Nation.com) This plan known as is basically a liquid diet (please consult with your physician before attempting any form of strict dieting). It limited Mike to 1900 calories on workout days and 1600 calories on other days. This spartan plan allowed for only 1 solid meal per week.
The plan included dietary supplements and Mike chose AtLarge Nutrition's products. He chose them for their high quality and reasonable price. Mike included Nitrean, Opticen, Thermocin, and Multi-Plus in his arsenal.
"Thermocin is great! Despite being on below-maintenance level calories and very low carbs I found myself powering through my workouts. Working in front of a computer staring at code all day demands focus and Thermocin really helped; I just never experienced the brain fog normally associated with a low carb diet. Despite the lack of solid food in my diet I found that after the first 3 days I never had any real hunger issues. I give credit for this to Thermocin and its ability to suppress appetite as well as the satisfying taste and filling nature of Nitrean's protein blend."

Mike's results were no less than outstanding! In just 28 days Mike was able to lose 17.5 pounds (224.5 lbs to 207 lbs) and it was nearly all fat! To validate this point, amazingly, Mike's deadlift remained the same (425 lb single) and he was able to rep chins with ease!
Take a look at his awesome transformation pictures below for the visual proof of Mike's amazing feat!

Mike's progress thus far is simply awe-inspiring but he feels he is far from finished
| "I obviously have quite a bit more fat to lose, but these 28 days were a great jump-start to a more traditional approach to nutrition. I'll send you guys more pictures when I have some freaking visible abs! I thank you guys for making outstanding nutritional supplements at a super price! I will be a customer for as long as you guys continue your approach to business."
