Hi all :)
First of all I'd like to say thank you very much to the guys at Finaflex for giving me the opportunity to use and review this product, being my very first log of a product, I was very excited to have the opportunity!

So I had my first dose this morning 15 mins pre workout as directed, however I had 1/2 a scoop for my first day to assess my tolerance-can't wait to kick it up to a full scoop tomorrow :)

Although it was just my first taste of the pre workout, I can say that the taste was good, with no powdery bits left at the bottom of the shaker, always a plus. Just before I hit the weights, I felt myself getting a little bit shakey, and about half way through the session, my arms were jacked and I was sweating like crazy!

The focus I felt was quite good for the first day, so I can only imagine the effects that my first full scoop will bring. I will update this log every three days (if not more frequently when possible), and keep you all posted.
So far, so good....bring on tomorrow! :)

Hey guys, so I had my first full scoop of this morning 15 mins pre workout as directed.

Oh...wow. The best way to describe how I felt, is the way peter griffin felt in the 'red bull' family guy episode, if anyone's seen it lol. Energy was just out of control, focus was insane. Oh and did I mention that the taste was awesome?

This mornings workout:
ATG front squat 5x8x20kg bar
Db bench press 5x8x13kg each hand
BB deadlift 5x8x45kg
Pendlay row 5x8x25kg

I have to say that I see it as very intuitive picking a female to log a PWO. To me that shows diversity and faith in the product itself. I believe it could do wonders in the future, especially based off of the initial review I read here. I look forward to the remainder of your log!

So another dose of Stimul8 this afternoon 15 mins pre workout, and here's my min review of its performance thus far...

Product was a great source of clean energy/good mood: 5/5, the energy kicks in for me about 15 mins after ingestion, and lasts throughout my workout. I also feel a sense of focus and calm, kind of a 'hazy' feeling.

This product helped me power through my training sessions: 5/5 for sure so far, I seem to be wiping workouts out quicker than what I have previously, feel like the energizer bunny!

This product enhanced my mental focus:5/5...I have tunnel vision when it comes to the weights!

This product did not give me the jitters: 2/5. Now I have found from the start that I do get some heart flutters and shakes from the product, however this seems to subside about a quarter of the way into my workout, so doesn't worry me :)

This product tasted great: 5/5-I'm a big fan of apple, and I find this easy to drink, being a girl who sometimes struggles with getting pre workouts down if they have a funky aftertaste, this is definitely NOT the case here :)

Just a side note, one little side effect I have been experiencing is the urgent need to go to the bathroom about 5 mins after ingestion, just wondering if anyone else has experienced this thus far?

This afternoon's workout-
DB Clean and Jerk
3 x3x15kg

Complex 1
Single Leg BB RDL 3 x 12 with 15kg barbell
Single Arm DB Press 3 x 12x12.5kg
Chinese Row 3 x 12x12.5kg
RF Stretch 2 x 5 Per Set

Complex 2
Traveling Lunge w DB on Shoulders 2 x 12x15kg each shoulder
Band Pull Aparts 2 x 6
1 Arm DB Floor Press w Supine Bridge 2 x 12x10kg
1 Arm Pull Downs 2 x 12x22.5kg each side

Complex 3
Single Leg Swiss Ball Curls 3 x Max
Swiss Ball Roll Outs 3 x 6
Wall Psoas March 3 x 6 x 2 sec
Prone Bridge March 3 x 6 x 2 sec

All in all, a good strong workout on stimul8 today :)

Oh, read your bo's Stimul8 log. Make sure you both shake the tub of powder before taking it. Seems there may be some separation of the blended powder.

I would rather drink a pre workout than alcohol.

Health and fitness is imperative to quality of life. I wanna enjoy life.

Maybe I missed it, but are you taking a full or half scoop RC? I find that when I am trying any new PwO, I will start with 1/2 a dose and then assess from there.

great mini-review chick, thorough and easy to read (and of course - exciting!)

is funny - exact same thoughts went thru my head :p

I think I have mentioned this before, but really - you should shake ALL powder blends prior to use
particles can be weighted differently, and settling occurs in a great many items..only way to ensure combatting this is to shake prior to every use! ;)
