Natty's RTD Stimul8 Log

[NattyForLife]

Thanks to snags, registerJr, and the finaflex crew, i will be logging an entire case of stimul8 RTD preworkout! 12 bottles of amazing! I have used the regular powdered stimul8 and loved it, so im looking forward to this! The flavor is a classic flavor and one of my favorite flavors, punch! Will start tomorrow with my first dose for back/chest!

Glad to have the finaflex crew here! Im debating on my first dose with half a bottle or a whole bottle!

 

[TKC432]

I'm the mutant of the bunch that seems to always go with a full scoop of the powder or a full bottle of the RTD. Sets my hair on fire and keeps me pumped from start to finish through even the toughest training sessions :dance:

 

[RegisterJr]

Two bottles, FTW.

With you on this dude... at times I enjoy a big rounded scoop

 

[xR1pp3Rx]

its not too bad.. ive had a worse time in the past with some of the insane stuff that's been on the market..

 

[nicksox15]

In!

 

[NattyForLife]

Thanks everybody! Looks like i will be chugging a whole bottle before chest and back tonight!

 

[xR1pp3Rx]

I like to sip it myself

I dont feel like going to the ER tonight! Ha

 

[Abe Lincoln]

Yeah go to the hospital and grab some IV bags and just put those in there and straight line that **** into the veins lol.... Don't try this at home kids.

 

[NattyForLife]

Epic fail guys! I workout after work and today was in a hurry to get to work and ran off and forgot me a bottle of Stimul8! :facepalm:

 

[Abe Lincoln]

It happens to the best of us don't worry about it hah

 

[xR1pp3Rx]

[NattyForLife]

Sure does!

ohhhhhhhh I bet that just ate you up!! lulz...

Yes it did actually!

That sucks bro. Always tomorrow though

Will not be taking it tomorrow(just cardio and abs), but thursday, its going down for leg day!

 

[NattyForLife]

I was supposed to hit legs yesterday, but ive had some major sinus and ear congestion past couple of days(it sucks)! Feels like i got pressure in my ears, and i dont think it would be wise to go strain myself at the gym and blowout an eardrum! Lol. May or may no lift today either; it just depends on how my ears feels! Its making me mad cause im so ready to try me a bottle!

 

[NattyForLife]

Finally!!! Ive started feeling better, but still have some pressure in my left ear(feels like water in my ear)! Anyway hit legs for a monstrous session this evening! Im in a freestyle microcycle with a ton a volume right now! Will be on this for the next few weeks!

Ok so first impressions of Stimul8 RTD is the taste! Im a huge fan of fruit punch and this taste amazing! The taste is very strong, but for me the stronger the better! Ha. I slammed the whole bottle then headed to the gym! One of the first thing i noticed was i was getting hot on my way to the gym, and during my workout i sweated a lot more than usual!

The energy was great also; also not sure i this has pump inducing products but my pump was pretty intense in my quads! I cant remember some of the weights i use! I have been slacking on my logging, but honestly in this microcycle i really dont need to track my weights because im going for very high volume and reps wise! Mainly get a huge pump and keep it!

Also a little irony for you! My gym has started carrying the stimul8 RTD in one of their vendingmachines! Haha

Also endurance has completely gone through the roof since my first bottle! It is a very noticeable attribute of this pre-workout! I love it so far!

When does it hurt? Extension or flexion?

 

[xR1pp3Rx]

flexion mostly.. it can be sore on extension sometimes as well.

It could be your biceps tendon!

Form check?

[Rodja]

Need to go ~8-12" lower and use your glutes to finish the rep. You're hyperextending the spine at the top instead of using your glutes.

Thanks rodja, will get another vid up next time i do legs

 

[Rodja]

No problem. As with any variation of a conventional deadlift, drive through your heels, keep the lats tight, and squeeze your ass to complete the rep.

[RegisterJr]

Oh my...

 

[TKC432]

Damn that looks good :head:

 

[NattyForLife]

No gym today gents! Off day! Tomorrow hitting chest and back!

 

[NattyForLife]

Hit back today with tons of volume! Also i downed my forth bottle preworkout and it was "on"!!!

Didnt really keep up with reps and sets, but i destroyed my back! Here is some of the exercises i did though!

Lat pulldown
WG lat pulldown
Nuetral grip lat pulldown
Closegrip lat pulldown
Cable lat pullover SS with incline prone db extension(this kills the lower lats)
Banded life fitness row machine
Banded HS high row
Prone incline DB rear delt fly row hybrid
Single arm cable row SS with HS low row
Back extension

Overall had an awesome workout, and im still loving the stimul8 RTD! Finaflex hit a homerun with this. Ive been trying to get some of my friends to try a bottle out of the vending machine!

 

[NattyForLife]

My back is what im mainly focusing on this offseason! My lats lag especially lower lats!

 

[Rodja]

Why so many pulldown variations instead of pull-ups? Open kinetic is a better option than a closed kinetic.
