| Choosing The Right Animal "Stack" Combo |
|
Every
month, thousands of dedicated lifters call or email us, asking about
customized Animal supplement "stacks". Some are preparing for a
bodybuilding show, others are gearing up for a powerlifting meet. But
the majority of lifters just want to know how they can increase their
performance and reach their goals faster. Well here are a couple of
combo stacks that me, my lifting buddies, and some of the guys here at
Animalpak.com use. Also, check out comments from real users like
yourself and the combo stacks they use by clicking here
|
| Stack #1: The Natural Lean Mass Stack |
Goal:
For competitive lifters seeking to maintain mass and size while
increasing deep cuts. This triple stack can help increase the anabolic
drive and promote muscle size, overall conditioning, and a freaky
“onion-skin” look.
Tools:
• Animal Pak
• Animal Cuts
• Animal M-Stak
Schedule:
| Animal Pak |
1 packs daily, with breakfast |
| Animal Cuts |
2
packs daily, once in the morning before breakfast and another in the
early afternoon, allowing for at least 3-4 hours between each pack |
| Animal M-Stak |
1 pack daily, 30-45 minutes prior to training |
Note:
Don’t take the Cuts and the M-Stak simultaneously, but stagger them.
And always take the M-Stak before you lift. In other words, if you lift
at 6pm, take the Cuts first thing in the morning, and again before
lunch. Take the M-Stak at 5:15pm or so. But if you train in the
morning, take the M-Stak before you lift, the first Cuts before lunch,
and the second Cuts before dinner. Try to stagger the Cuts and the
M-Stak at least 4 hours apart.
Tips:
When taking M-Stak by itself or in any combination, be sure to get at
least a gram of protein per pound of bodyweight. Let its
“nutrition-partitioning” effects work for you. By taking in cleaner
calories and cutting out the junk, this triple stack will work more
effectively. |
| Stack #2: The Basic Anabolic Stack |
Goal:
This is a basic, minimal stack designed for all intermediate to
advanced lifters looking for an anabolic edge. These athletes train
hard and eat clean throughout the year. Due to the potent nature of
this stack, however, it isn't recommended for all athletes, especially
those athletes who are drug-tested or under the age of 18.
Tools:
• Animal Pak
• Animal Stak
Schedule:
| Animal Pak |
1 pack with either breakfast, lunch, or dinner |
| Animal Stak 2 |
1
pack 30-45 minutes prior to weight training or cardio. On non-weight
training days, take a pack approximately the same time as you would if
you were training |
Tips:
With Animal Pak, you not only get a great nutritional foundation, you
also get a supplement that makes the Animal Stak 2 (and other
supplements) work better. Combined with 4-6 balanced meals per day,
this simple double stack will produce nice results in a short period of
time. Make sure your body is getting enough quality calories and
protein. Remember, calories are the fuel which will drive growth. |
| Stack #3: The Pre-Contest Cutting Stack |
Goal:
For elite and competitive bodybuilders seeking to increase striations
and vascularity. This triple stack can increase muscle hardness,
overall conditioning, and deep cuts. Several cycles can be used
consecutively in the weeks of contest prep prior to a show.
Tools:
• Animal Pak
• Animal Cuts
• Animal Nitro
Schedule:
| Animal Pak |
2 packs daily, with breakfast and dinner |
| Animal Cuts |
2
packs daily, once in the morning before breakfast and another in the
early afternoon, allowing for at least 3-4 hours between each pack |
| Animal Nitro |
2 packs daily, 30 minutes prior to lifting, within 30 minutes after lifting |
Note:
This plan assumes that you're training in the evening. If you train
first thing in the morning, for example, take your Animal Nitro first,
followed by an Animal Cuts pack 3-4 hours later, and a second Cuts pack
3-4 hours after that.
Tips:
Drink plenty of water. If doing both weight training and cardio during
the same session, always hit the weights first, followed by cardio.
Anaerobic activity is fueled by glycogen, and after weight training,
the cardio will tap into fat stores more efficiently. When performing
cardio, the intensity level should not be too high as entering the
anaerobic threshold encourages carb utilization, not fat oxidation. |
| Stack #4: The Quick 3-Week Definition Stack |
Goal:
For athletes looking for deeper cuts in a shorter period of time. This
double stack is also perfect for those athletes who tend to hold excess
water, as well as subcutaneous fat, especially around the abs.
Tools:
• Animal Pak
• Animal Cuts
Schedule:
| Animal Pak |
1 pack daily, with a meal |
| Animal Cuts |
2 packs daily, one in the morning, another in the afternoon |
Tips:
For maximum results, take your first Animal Cuts pack on an empty
stomach, first thing in the morning, followed by 30-45 minutes of
cardio. All this should take place before your first meal. If you don't
have time in the morning, and you do cardio in the evening, then take
the Animal Cuts pack in the morning, the Pack in the afternoon with
lunch, and the second Animal Cuts pack 30-60 minutes before cardio.
Once again, be sure to drink plenty of water as drinking water actually
reduces water retention. Water retention is often due to the body
hoarding water when not enough is taken in. |
| Stack #5: The Serious Anabolic Stack |
Goal:
Perfect for serious lifters looking to maximize performance and
strength. This triple stack is ideal for frequent, heavy lifters
who need more help reducing recovery times.
Tools:
• Animal Pak
• Animal Nitro G
• Animal Stak 2
Schedule:
| Animal Pak |
1 pack daily, with a meal |
| Animal Stak |
1 pack 30-45 minutes prior to training |
| Animal Nitro |
1 pack within 30 minutes after training |
Tips:
If your training is particularly tough, you can also take a second
Animal Nitro G packet during the day. We like taking it first thing in
the morning in this stack. |
| Stack #6: The Off-Season Mass Gaining Stack |
Goal:
This powerful triple stack is perfect for strength athletes looking for
quality weight gain in the off-season, those bodybuilders looking to
maximize their muscle size, and traditional "hardgainers."
Tools:
• Animal Pak
• Animal Stak
• Animal M-Stak
Schedule:
| Animal Pak |
1 pack daily, with breakfast, lunch, or dinner |
| Animal Stak |
1 pack daily, 30-45 minutes prior to training |
| Animal M-Stak |
1 pack daily, 3-4 hours apart from the Animal Stak |
Note:
Be
sure not to take the Animal Stak at the same time you take the Animal
M-Stak. Stagger each. For example, if you train and take the Stak in
the morning, take the M-Stak in the afternoon, and vice versa.
Tips:
In addition to the above supplement stack, aim for 5-6 six meals daily,
every 2-3 hours. Include generous helpings of lean red beef, tuna,
chicken, pork, and turkey. If you eat clean, you won't need to add any
fat because you'll get them naturally from your food. Consume protein
with every meal, at least a gram of protein per pound of bodyweight per
day. If you want, you can supplement with some essential fats in the
form of nuts, safflower oil, natural peanut butter, flaxseed oil, or
borage oil. Stick to low glycemic index carbs and make sure you get
enough of them as glycogen fuels anaerobic training. |
| Stack #7: The Explosive Gains Stack |
Goal:
To add maximum size and strength in a short period of time.
Tools:
Animal Pak, Animal Pump, Animal Stak 2, Animal Nitro G
Schedule:
| Animal Pak |
1 pack daily with breakfast |
| Animal Stak |
1 pack 45 minutes before training |
| Animal Pump |
1 pack 30 minutes before training |
| Animal Nitro |
1 pack immediately postworkout |
Note:
Since
both Stak and Pump are designed as preworkout packs, take Stak 45
minutes before your workout and then follow it 15 minutes later with
Pump. It is always a good idea to take Pump closer to your training so
as to maximize the effects of the Energy Rush Complex.
Tips:
Prioritize taking in mega calories and getting ample rest. Add a gainer shake to breakfast and have another before bed. |
Stack #8: The Test Explosion Stack
|
Goal
To maximize the output of testosterone and GH through multiple means to allow for dramatic gains in size and strength.
Tools
Animal Pak, Animal Test, Animal Stak
Schedule
Animal Pak: 1 pack daily, in the AM, with your breakfast meal
Animal Stak: 1 pack daily, 1 hour before training
