bit the bullet im trying an ANIMAL STACK

[brownstown89]

ok well first of all i love the website the marketing of animal/universal nutrition. All legit online reviews look good. However when i was new to lifting and supplements i went to gnc. they always advised against animal saying its garbage.. so that kind of stuck in my head. I always get a preworkout or something from gnc first and for a trial period. if i like it i return it and order online. I was about try a controlled labs white food (favorite pre workout) and Concret (favorite creatine) but i coudlnt find it on nutra... and i saw the anabolic window stack for 89.99 i bought it Intra-Aid never tried anything like it b4 and torrent is a post workout creatine i thought but it has protien too?!

not to mention i got it in 2 days no joke and shipping was free. but anyways all u animal reps or fans even what should i expect? i know its just basic supps. but i eat about
3000-400 calories
180-220 g protien
and 30-40 g carbs per meal

i weigh 175 and bench 265, Deadlift 435 and Squat 365 which wont go up beucase i want leg size not worrid bout strength.

so what should i expect outta an animal product.

what should you expect out of the animal line? supplements that are no bullshit, no frills, straight to the point and Work. With proper training and exercise, the stack you picked will help you a LOT. one suggestion, increase your protein intake to nothing less than 300g per day. You want size, toss in some real gains as well.

intra aid, is a PHENOMENAL supplement that will drastically increase your energy and focus during your lifting sessions. Good luck with the stack and keep us up to date

I do like the animal products a lot i must say. Here's my current workout-time drinks and products that I've come to like together (minus the anti-e's and test boosters):

preworkout:
SHOCK THERAPY
1 ENOXIDE

During workout:
AXCELL

Post Workout:
Torrent

ok so i worked out today first time with the stack. Intra aid taste the best, the other two taste was awful

shock threapy took 2 scoops and it kicked in after about 10-15 mins steady constant lets get it feeling.

Sipped intra aid- well see how recovery goes.
drank torrent while doing abs.

my shoulder was aching bad last week could barely get up 235 and my max is around 265. I did a buckeye blast workout went like this

170 x 8
190 x 6
210 x 4
225 x 3 only got 2
235 x 2
240 x 1
210 x 3 was suppose to get 4

Incline Dumbells
3 x 6 on 70s usually get 4 x 7 i cut a set out and hit 1 less rep each set because i am not use to that much volume on flat bench coming off westside.

Tricep barbell extentions
95 x 7
105 x 7
115 x 7
120 x 5

Flyes 2 sets incline 2 flat
4 x 15

cable tricep pullover
100 x 12
120 x 10
140 x 6

various pulldowns for a pump no need to list those.

loved the workout felt good i want to see some size on my legs. so doing legs tommorow.

To get this straight, you got the AWO Stack, but you're asking about which Animal supps you could work in? Or use later?

AWO Stack is one sweet stack. If ya like it, the next time around, you could swap out Shock Therapy for Animal Pump for example...

 

[brownstown89]

nah i just meant what to expect outta it welll today went like this...

Negatives
didnt get to eat hardly at all stupid parents bitching all day, no food etc..
Had to mow lawn b4 working out.
Had to wait like 1 hour after taking shock threapy to start workout.

Postives
Shock Threapy didnt taste bad at all today i waited a while after brushing my teeth to drink it. i had a steady going nervous feeling (that you need while lifting)
Intra Aid didnt taste bad at all made mouth a lil dry tho.
Torrent- tooo sugary for my liking but o well

Had amazing quad pump, #s all went up even on hack squat, which is weird cuz i did leg extentions b4 them this time!

Just did one set of bicep to see if strength was there.
115 x 6 Perfect form i really dont think i arched my back at all.

Gotcha.

Feel free to cut back on the dosage of Shock Therapy if it provides too much energy, for example.

Depending on the flavor, add more water. I find that 25-30 oz of cold water works best per scoop of Blue Raz Intra-Aid. Throw it in the freezer for an hour or so before you lift. It'll taste much, much better.

Again, feel free to add more water to the Torrent. Add water to taste for all of 'em in fact.

Most of GNC's employee's think all of there overpriced supplements are garbage except MuscleTech or whatever else the sales reps receive a huge commission off of.

Kicking ass is all that matters...

But on the Intra-Aid, def use cold water. Make a huge difference. Better yet, drop it in the freezer for an hour or so if ya can before heading to the gym. Makes all the difference.
