Let me begin by saying that after just ONEworkout with a full scoop of Purus Labs' Muscle Marinade, I am making it a staple for future workouts. It's that good.
Thanks to the generosity of Grambo and the rest of the Purus Platoon (Aaron, Airborne, JohnnyNutz) who chose me to log, I was given the opportunity to log Muscle Marinade. I had heard nothing but positive reviews from those who've used it before.
I was hesitant at first also because of the 6g of creatine in a full scoop. I'm making a conscious effort to up my water intake big time though so I won't have issues.
The stim content is what it's notorious for also, but I have to say that it was a smooth sustained rush I felt as I was working out. No major comedown afterwards either; for me, perfect, for others, may be a tad strong.
Flavor: I had fresh fruit. Tasted better than it smelled, let's put it that way! Although now that I've had Purus' ConDense in green apple, I DEMAND it be included in MM formulas!
Day one workout:
Hammer bench press:
270x6, 310x6, 340 x8 (PR) to failure, 340 x 6 f, 310 x 5 f, 270x6 f. 2 minute rest between sets
Hex shrugs:
185x 12, 11, 10, 9, 8 60 second rest
Roc-it lat pulldowns
230x 12, 11, 8 -- BIG bicep pump here, 180 x 8 --bicep pumps again!
Farmers' walks 60 lbs x 2 trips across gym x 2
Felt great throughout the workout; hit PRs on bench press. Never went that high and especially with those reps; maybe it was placebo but I felt with MM in my system, there was NO WAY that I WASN'T going to push that weight!
