First and foremost, a big shout out to RenegadeRows and the rest of the CL team for selecting me to log this product. And extra props for the ridiculously quick shipping. Seriously. Today, at work, they come in with a box for me and I'm trying to think what on Earth I'd ordered, and after seeing CL on the label, I thought to myself, "no way." I just got a PM about it 2 days ago, and it's already here (not to mention that things usually stay in the shipping warehouse at work for a day or two before getting to us). Nice work, guys.
I've had a lot of experience with CL products and they've always been a very reputable company to do business with. As far as my history with intra-workout products, my first was actually Purple In-Train, which Psyko will be replacing (is my understanding). I enjoyed In-Train, but transitioned over to XTEND, then to bulk BCAA's, various BCAA products, and currently USP's ModernBCAAs. I started using the rest of my In-Train for intra-basketball and enjoyed it much more there, since I was tearing through calories hardcore.
What I'll likely be doing with this product (cleared with RR, of course) is using either a double dose and/or combining with some bulk BCAAs to get the amount up to a range I use during my workouts. I currently hover around the 230 mark (honestly haven't weighed in in a while) and usually take in around 20-30g BCAAs per workout. Lately, I've been using 3 scoops of ModernBCAAs. So, I'm thinking I'll dose about 2 scoops of Psyko and 2-3 scoops of bulk 4:1:1 in there with it. I'll play around with things and offer up my opinions.
I'm currently cutting, but in all honesty, coasting a little bit. I found out 5 weeks ago that I have hypothyroidism. It sucks, but it's a relief to know that's the reason I've never been able to cut up the way I've wanted. Short version is I go in for blood work next week to see what the 50mcg of T4 daily has been doing; and assess dosage there (T4 takes 6 weeks to stabilize its levels in the blood stream, so it's a bit of a lengthy process).
I'm 3 days into a paleo diet and feel great, thus far. I'd read some info that linked it to being successful with hypothyroidism and figured I'd give it a shot. I'm not counting calories at the moment, just making sure I get my protein in and eating a lot of lean meat, fruit and getting the veggie intake up more (and almonds in there for my "snack"). I'll update when I get blood work back as well.
I've also been selected to Log APS's Testalensis (which I'd actually applied to log quite a ways before Psyko, but some complications kept that product from getting out until soon). I'll have a separate log for that, but both of these logs will be copy/pasted as far as the workouts go. Each log will have its own commentary.
Today was an off day for me and either tomorrow or Sunday will be my next day in (Chest and Abs). I'll post sometime soon with my training split / style.
