I was one of the lucky folk to receive a week's worth of both Animal Pump and Shock Therapy by Universal Nutrition.
Animal Pump (30 servings) By: Universal Nutrition
Shock Therapy (2.22 lbs) By: Universal Nutrition
Today marked my first workout using Animal Pump - Thursday I will have another, and a final workout on Saturday. Next will be devoted Shock Therapy: same workouts, different pre-wo supp.
I am doing a total body routine right now, and will post weight and movements following each day. I am eating approx. 3600cal/day right now, slightly below maintenance, to recover from the spree of my Honeymoon, which consisted of pretty much the whole month of July. The only supps I am currently on are: Fish Oil, ZMA, ALCAR, Whey, Creatine Mono, EgCG, Multi and VitC, Malto and Dex.
Animal Pump pack was ingested about 30min prior to workout. At first I felt fine, but I began to feel light-headed about 15-20min into the WO. I am presuming that the stim effect of Pump is just greater than I anticipated (even though I am typically not so stimulant sensitive) and I will be avoiding caffeine for the remainder of my WO while using it. No more cup of coffee with Breakfast.
Pumps, however were increased, particularly in legs and chest. I look forward to Thursday's session, sans morning coffee, to better evaluate the pack.
Today's Workout:
Squats: 315: 5sets of 3 (my squat sucks; I'm working on bringing it up)
DB Pullovers: 95lbs: 15reps,
100lb: 10reps, pause, 3reps, pause, 2reps
Chin-ups: BW w/3sec eccentric: 12reps, p, 3reps
10reps, p, 4reps, p, 1rep
Snatch-Grip BTN Push Press: 135 w/3sec eccentric: 13reps, p, 2reps
10reps, p, 5reps
Barbell calf-raises: 225: 3set of 18
Reverse Hypers: BW+35: 3sets of 10
Barbell Preacher Curls: 135: 8sets of 3
I will update again following Thursday's workout.
