Alex's Wyked log

[Aleksandar37]

First, thank you to Taurus for this opportunity and to StakedCop for picking me to log Wyked.

This is my first log of a product, so please feel free to make suggestions if I'm leaving anything out or need to clarify anything I say.

I'll be lifting 4 times a week and will log those days as they are when I will be using Wyked. I tend to lift on Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I'll only be using Wyked in addition to protein powders and ECDY.

I ran a 6 week Epi cycle back around January and have been trying several different supplement combos since then. For the past month or so I was using No-Xplode, DAA, and Superpump250 as a pre-workout drink. Despite being very sensitive to caffeine, this didn't really give me the jitters or upset my stomach, but it will be a nice comparison to the effects of Wyked.

I apologize that there was a slight delay in the start of this log, but I had to leave town suddenly to deal with some family issues, but just flew back in today and am hoping to jump into this tomorrow (Sunday), even though I'm trying to get my body used to a five hour time change. The bad news is that I was not able to get any gym time in while I was away for a week, but the good news is that I was also completely supplement free, so this will really be a clean slate.

My goals are always strength and general recomp. I've been lifting for about 13-15 years now and have tried a lot of supplements over the years. I have always done this as a hobby and never planned on competitions, so size is nice, but not completely necessary to me.

Can't wait for tomorrow's first workout!

***Sorry that I forgot to mention this was sponsored in the title...

Check out my log for ideas on what a first post should ideally contain (you have covered some): brief introduction, goals, current statistics based on goals, training, supplementation, nutrition if you want, any comment you might make, initial impressions, etc.

Comments each day (if you are logging daily) should be primarily specific to the product you are logging - in this case, Wyked, and the "expected effects" and "claims" of the product. In essence, the areas you are going to comment on in your Final Review should be those commented on in your updates (again, check out some of my product reviews to see what I mean). You can also include training and/or nutrition for that day in your updates if you want as well.

But, at least you got this started

My nutrition plan for this will be as follows:

Meal 1:
Oatmeal mixed with a scoop of Cinnamon Bun Muscle Milk and two tablespoons of acacia fiber, plus multi and ECDY

Meal 2:
Baked chicken breast with raw spinach and a Kashi granola bar, plus ECDY

Meal 3:
One scoop of oatmeal and one scoop of Casein...chug, plus ECDY

Pre-workout: Wyked!!!

Workout ~6-7

Meal 4:
PWO shake: one scoop of whey with beta-alanine, glutamine, and BCAA, plus ECDY

Meal 5:
Baked chicken breast with raw spinach

Meal 6:
Right before bed a tablespoon of natty PB

This is what I do every day except on Sunday night which is cheat meal night

Liquid intake is 1 liter of green and oolong tea in the morning, plus about 4 liters of water spread throughout the day, plus about two liters of water mixed with Crystal Light

[Aleksandar37]

One, two, three and I come with the wicked
-Wicked, Ice Cube

Usually listen to metal when working out, but it seemed natural to start the first workout with this song.

Drank two scoops mixed with water about 30 minutes prior to workout.

First impression of Wyked was AMAZING flavor! Second though was respect this product. I began with two scoops and, despite having extensive experience with stims and pre-workout drinks, was definitely close to that line between having a great pump and a panic attack. It should be noted though that this was my first workout after taking more than a week off, so I probably shouldn't have used the intensity that I tend to. Sundays are my nights when I get in a superset workout since the gym is fairly empty and my strength was still there, but my cardio needs to catch up.

Workout was as follows:

Dumbbell flat-bench press supersetted with one arm dumbbell rows 4x8

Incline barbell press supersetted with lat pulldowns 4x8

Dumbbell delt press 4x8

Dips (V shaped bar...parallel is later in the week...I also switch which way I am facing between sets to hit the triceps and chest from different angles) 4x12

Hammer grip pullups supersetted with high pulley curls 3x10 (pullups are to failure; usually about 6-8)

Front delt plate raises 3x10

Tricep pulley pushdown supersetted with a bicep pulley curl supersetted with an upright pulley row 3x8


My first overall impression of Wyked is intense power and pumps that lasted throughout the entire workout. I'll stick with two scoops and may try three as time goes on except for leg day when I tend to back off on the stims a bit as I don't want to pass out during a deadlift I'll try one scoop on leg day and go from there depending on how my body responds.

[Aleksandar37]

Leg Day!!!

I went with one scoop about a half hour before my workout as I tend to ease back on stims on leg day. Too much makes me feel like I'm going to pass out during squats and deadlifts.

Diet was spot on, but my sleep was horrible and work ran long, so I didn't get to the gym until about 7:30pm and was really tired.

Squats 5x10
Barbell lunges 4x8,8
Deadlift 12,10,8,8,5 (increasing weight)
Leg press 3x10
Leg press, single leg, alternating until failure ~50 total per leg
Calf raise 3x7,7,7 (toes pointed inward, toes pointed outward, toes pointed forward)

*edit* Forgot to add high pulley cable crunches 3x10

10 minutes on the stair climber machine, pyramiding the intensity

Despite being dead tired all day, my endurance was insane during this workout with only one scoop!!! Flavor rocks as I mentioned before. Tomorrow is cardio day and I'll be back to log on Wednesday

[Aleksandar37]

Chest, delt, tri day

As usual I drank Wyked about 30 minutes prior to working out. I went with 2 scoops this time, but may bump it up to 3 tomorrow. It definitely gives a boost in energy after a long day of work without making me jittery or upsetting my stomach. It's also nice to have all the benefits of this in a small scoop as compared to larger scoops required with products like NO-Xplode and Superpump250. The flavor isn't as intense as those other products, but that is actually a good thing since it isn't overpowering, but is still really tasty!

Workout was as follows:

Flat dumbbell press 4x8
Incline barbell press 3x10
Dumbbell delt press 3x10(alternating arms)
Parallel dips 3x10(last to failure)
High pulley flyes 3x8
Low pulley flyes 3x8
Lateral raises 3x12 (5 with palms facing forward, 7 with palms facing down)
Tricep rope pulley extensions 4x10
Dumbbell shrugs 3x8

I'm sub'd brother. I haven't been around AM much... Crazy busy with life. Enjoy!!!

[Aleksandar37]

Bumped up the dose to 3 scoops. Definitely felt the increase in energy, but no light-headedness or jitters. Also, most pre-workouts that give me this level of intensity have me sweating like a pig. I didn't experience any extensive sweating on top of what is normal from my workout alone.

Today's workout was back and biceps:

Pullups 10,10,10,8
Deadlift 10,8,8,5
Bentover barbell rows 3x10
Seated row 3x10
Bicep curls (21s) 3x21
Low pulley rope rows (wasn't quite sure what to call these) supersetted with hammer curls 3x10
Hanging leg/knee raises 3x20

Since this was my first week back after taking a little over a week off from all exercise, I've been having increased DOMS, which is to be expected. Wyked is definitely helping me work through them and getting me back to where I was before the break. There was a significant increase in my deadlifts today (Thursday) since leg day (Monday).

3 scoops is my sweet spot-btw, 3 scoops makes me sweat-alot, lol.

3 scoops seems to do the trick for me too. I know I'm doing something right when I'm sweating...just don't like leaving a puddle on the bench:P

Today was a cardio day but I did one scoop mixed with BCAA and powerade zero as a midday pick-me-up and trying to get through these DOMS.

[Aleksandar37]

I've definitely found that 3 scoops is the sweetspot for me. Drank it about a half hour before my workout and was pumped the entire time as I took full advantage of an empty gym thanks to it being a Sunday night and the Bulls game was on.

Workout was as follows:

Dumbbell flat-bench press supersetted with one arm dumbbell rows 4x8

Incline barbell press supersetted with lat pulldowns 4x8

Barbell delt press 3x12

Dips (V shaped bar...parallel is later in the week...I also switch which way I am facing between sets to hit the triceps and chest from different angles) 4x12

Hammer grip pullups supersetted with high pulley curls 3x10 (pullups are to failure; usually about 6-8)

Flyes supersetted with Reverse flyes on machine 3x10

Front delt plate raises 3x10

Tricep pulley pushdown supersetted with a bicep pulley curl supersetted with an upright pulley row 4x8


The DOMS from taking a week off have pretty much subsided thanks to Wyked and getting my nutrition back in check. I have the usual DOMS, but that all over feeling of everything being sore has thankfully passed. Now it's onward and upward as I keep going with Wyked and see where it takes me and if the three scoops continues to be enough, but not too much. Still loving the flavor!

"Onwards and upwards". I like that!

So I think we can all agree that Mondays suck. It seems to be the longest workday of the week, at least for me. I usually get out late, which leads to me getting to the gym late. It also seems to be the busiest night at my gym and often, since it is my leg day, involves me standing and staring at morons doing some of the weirdest exercises ever on the only two squat racks that my gym has until I can finally jump in.

Dead tired driving to the gym from work (+30 miles=hour and a half of Chicago traffic), but thanks to Wyked I was ready to go from the start. Two scoops about a half hour before getting to the gym.

Squats 5x10
Barbell lunges 4x8,8
Deadlift 12,10,8,8,5 (increasing weight)
Leg press, single leg, alternating until failure 50 total per leg
Stepups onto bench holding a 45lb plate in each hand 3x16(8 right foot first, 8 left foot first)
Calf raise 3x7,7,7 (toes pointed inward, toes pointed outward, toes pointed forward)
High pulley cable crunches 3x10
10 minutes on the stair climber machine, pyramiding the intensity

Cardio-wise, this is my most intense lifting workout of the week. So if there is a possibility for feeling like I will pass out, this is it! Yet again though, Wyked comes through with the energy I needed after a long annoying day at work, but not so much as to make me dizzy. I did only go with two scoops, as opposed to the usual three, but will definitely try three scoops next Monday to see how it goes.

i agree about mondays, but for me it's sunday nights.


btw- i think you will like 3 scoops.

Today was a cardio day and I didn't take any Wyked, but wanted to post an observation. Aside from Wyked, the only supplements that I am taking are ECDY and protein mixed with beta-alanine and BCAA. Wyked is the only new thing I have added and have actually cut out a few supps to see just how well Wyked works.

Anyway, my endurance during my cardio today was through the roof! This is my second week back from taking a full week off from any exercise at all and my strength tends to bounce back rather quickly, but my cardio always seems to take forever to get back to where it was. I beat the crap out of myself today and it felt great! Could all be in my head, but there was definitely something different and I can't discount the affect of Wyked. We'll just have to see how things go on the future cardio days.
