Few photos of the goods! Dosed the BCAAs at exactly one serving (11g) and damn are these sure tasty! Had em post workout cuz the package arrived later after my workout.

Very solid and refreshing sour apple flavor. Mixed very easily with no floaters and went down smoooth.

Later last night I dosed a 1/2 scoop of G8 30min prior to bedtime. Didn't necessarily make me feel drowsy but oh man when I went to bed I stayed asleep like a log. Woke up about 6 hours later (avg night of sleep, I work super early) and felt a bit inebriated and kinda wobbly and stumbled outta bed to piss. That's how I know I got some deep sleep when I wake up pretty disoriented lol

It's early and idk if I can 100% attribute it to the G8 yet but that's what this log is for so we shall see folks!

great looking start, in-depth feedback (glad you like the apple fusion flav! yes it is hyooge hit)..nice looking pics..
I am slightly perturbed tho, as I too have a taylor digi scale -- but it has no nice backlit screen like that :sigh:
look forward to your continued great insight!

Thanks alot man! Hahah I'm loving my new scale just picked it up at target a few days ago and it's sharp... The flavor is awesome!

The flavor on the G8 is neither bad nor good but somewhere in between. I've read on other logs that the taste was awful but I don't find it bad at all... Craze was bad. This is harmless lol

Just dosed another half scoop (~6g) and hopefully get the same effects again.

Ohhh almost forgot. I was in an unusually great mood today all day at work. Usually this is not the case. Another thing to watch for my friends!

Sounds like G8 is a hit with you so far and I'm glad you're enjoying the apple fusion flavor. It's pretty damn good. I have two Taylor scales, one for me and one for my food. Gonna have to get a new food one with that light. Nice.
I'm not a huge fan of the taste of G8, but the results are good enough to disregard the flavor. Mix the apple fusion and the g8 and all is well.

a little trick I have developed: I will drink G8 straight don't get me wrong, but the taste does indeed leave something to be desired..what I have done, since I take in a scoop of BCAA+SAA @ bedtime anyway, is mix a scoop of that with my G8
taste is absolutely fantastic, addictive in fact ;)
give it a shot!

Ok well second dosing of G8 has went down. The "drunk" like effects were less pronounced this morning which is a good thing. However, I did not wake up once throughout the night and woke up refreshed so that was great. Slept about 6 hours again and dosed about ~6g last night.

Feeling in a decent mood this morning. It's technically my Thursday since I work 6 days a week so here we go!

Ohh and FYI - I'm a light sleeper and wake up 3-4 times during the night. 2 nights in haven't woken up or been disturbed at all. Hoping this trend continues.

Macros for yesterday:

Thanks for following man. And yes the effects of G8 are being felt as of right now unless its placebo but we will be able to tell after 40 nights for sure. Gotta love that I only need a 1/2 scoop so far and can extend the run even further than the recommended 20 servings :)

Boom! Update time fellas!

Well I've been dosing the G8 and BCAAs together about 15-30 min pre bed. Sleep has been phenomenal to say the least. As a matter of fact I overslept today and woke up three hours late for work! Haha Finaflex your product works too well it seems!

Been dosing the G8 around 8-9g and the BCAAs at full dosage (11g) and have been having great results with that.

Best part besides the sleep is the mood improvement. I'm generally a grumpy guy at work but even other people are noticing how more upbeat I've been.

It's been a week so far and so far I'm digging this stack :)

8-9g=~.75 scoops right? I'm a little dude with no tolerance so that'd make me oversleep too.
Glad you're seeing the mood enhancement side of it too. It promotes an overall sense of well-being from what I've noticed. It's good stuff.

Yeah I've been dosing it like that for the past four days... It was probably just a coincidence but I might kick back the dose a bit to 6g.

Like the mood enhancement... sounds good.
I must agree. This is definitely the best aspect if G8 imo. When I'm in a better mood I am more productive and a better human overall if that makes any sense haha I will be buying this for that aspect alone.

Another update:

Lowered the dose last night to 6g and found it more difficult to get and stay asleep. My mind was racing and couldn't get it to stop. Still woke up in a good mood but didn't get that deep REM sleep I've been having the past week. Will up the dose tonight.

Rest day today and hitting shoulders tomorrow.

Thanks for joining MrKleen!

So I took the past two days off of the G8 and am really looking forward to my dose tonight. Gonna take about 7g and pound some BCAA/SAAs along with it!

Had a great chest/tricep workout today and felt nice and strong. Probably because I ate a lot this weekend and probably went 700 over my calories yesterday alone lol

No worries gonna start HIIT tomorrow and see how that treats me. Looking lean as I ever have sitting at 152lb (lowest BW ever).

that's okay - unless you already have planned periodic cal-bumps for one-day periods already, it will only boost metabolism and fire things up more for awhile ;)
don't sweat it

Thx for the info fellas! I'm not gonna lie I did have a great session yesterday and today (back workout). All the extra fats and carbs did me good this weekend and I can see a lot of veins on my abdominals for the first time. I wanna hopefully look into getting my BF measured (bodpod possibly) and see how low I've gotten just as a measuring stick for future reference.

G8 came thru again last nite... Fckin made me sleep too damn deep and I woke up late and was late to work again. Good thing I can get away with it lol

Took a break from G8 as I have noticed the effects starting to wear off slightly (great mood, deep sleep, etc.). I have however been dosing the BCAAs regularly and have fallen in love with the taste of them. Favorite flavored BCAAs I have ever tried hands down and they come in handy for fasted cardio as well!

Gonna take some G8 tonight then on another break as I will be in Vegas for three days straight and that means no sleep haha

5 days on, 2 off works for most of us. But 3 days of Vegas will do the trick aswell;)

Took today off from work cuz I'm leaving for Vegas soon. Took around 9G of G8 and it knocked me on my ass! Was out for a solid 9 hours and it felt amazing... Hit the gym already and the effects are back. I'm feeling super happy and really refreshed and ready to annihilate Vegas lol

Thanks alot fellas!


Well I'm back alive (barely!). Lol had a blast out there but I have come down with a cold and am super congested. It was roughly 108 degress out there this weekend and super cold inside the hotels n casinos so that probably messed me up... Plus the crappy diet of pop tarts and bagels and lack of sleep fueled by alcohol didn't help out my immune system any haha

So I paid the price for it at work today and damn it sure was miserable. Picked up some lozenges and Sudafed and NyQuil so hopefully be up and running at 100% in no time! Glad to be back an get back on track!

Sorry for dropping off fellas! Finally starting to feel better and I started using the G8 again last night.

Another solid night of sleep. Woke up alert and really refreshed and happy! G8 comes thru again!

Had a killer leg day today and I felt the G8 helped put me in a better state of mind. Man, I love this stuff. Top 5 supplements I've ever tried based on feeling alone and I've tried alot of stuff, trust.
