After reading the thread introducing the Compete ingredients I was so excited that I decided I could not wait any longer..
I was going to mix up my very own Compete-like drink..
I used:
An (cheap) powdered isotonic drink mix
+ 4 grams of bulk Peptopro
+ 2 grams of LCLT.
I have been drinking this mixture for one-and-a-half weeks during all my physical activity.
Up to now that means: 3 Krav Maga lessons and 4 weight-lifting sessions.
Here's my review:
Taste: I ended up with some kind off bitter-grapefruit/old-sweaty-socks taste.. It was drinkable and doesn't make me gag! So as a bulk-powder-mix I am satisfied Expecting Compete to tatse a lot better !
Immediate effect:I appear to last longer during my Krav maga lessons, when weight lifting I seem to be able to do more reps!
Recovery:I appear to recover a lot faster then with a simple BCAA drink. I usually get sore muscles 2 days after working out. This doesn't change, but my muscles are a lot less sore. Even while having done more reps.. I'm going to need to push myself a lot harder now! mfg:
Long-term: Unknown .. I am hoping the increased recovery will speed up my muslce building. And the carnitine will aid in fat loss. Can't say I noticed anything yet, but it's still early..
Overall:I am quite satisfied with my own brew, but I expect Compete to have a lot more positive effects and I know it will taste a lot better!
Conclusion: After testing this home brew I am anxiously awaiting the appearance of iForce Compete at my local webshop so I can check it out! :wizard:
