Up until today I was using an AM non-sponsor's stevia and citrus flavored BCAA because I'm on a mission to eliminate artificial sweeteners, flavors and dyes from my diet. I was very excited to see Get Diesel providing a competitive BCAA product.

In the past I logged his Ready4War PWO so I'm familiar with his supplements and quality.

As for me, I'm a 55 year old diehard martial artist that has been seriously lifting since 2006. I have my own gym I call the "Den of Iron":

I work out with a HR monitor and currently am turning into a lollipop with my concentration on upper body due to the old back giving me problems. One Lift A Day (OLAD) routines have been good to me but I switch things up a bit.

Please feel free to join in and comment on anything you like. Welcome all!!

Final review of Get Diesel Nutrition's BCAA drink.

Thanks to Chuck and Rocket for allowing me to log DIESELADE!

Cliff Notes: Simply incredible recovery, all natural flavors and sweeteners! BUY THIS NOW!!!!

Mixing: 10/10
Very little to no sediment.

Taste: 10/10
At first use you realize that it doesn't taste like artificial sweetener. We have all been forced to use sucralose and acesulfame K with other supplements. We trained our tastebuds to accept this as "sweet" and acceptable. Since DIESELADE has no artificial colors, flavors or sweeteners you tend to say "Hey! What's this!" This is a much better alternative!

Effectiveness 10/10
No supplement can completely cure DOMS and recovery is a function of your volume, conditioning, diet and genetics. I can tell you with certainty that recovery was faster than normal.

Cost
Some BCAAs are lower cost but you get what you pay for. I'm such a believer in this that I just purchased 4 additional tubs. I plan on using DIESELADE as my daily intra workout drink.

Thanks to everyone that followed along. I did notice some of you purchased DIESELADE already - good for you!

One scoop in 14 oz water and it's way too sweet for me! Adjusted to 20 oz and the taste is cherry smooth with a hint of lime. This is a different type of "sweet". Not at all like ace k or sucralose but more like sugar.

Mixes with a couple shakes and foam disappears after a minute or two.

Yeah for me 1 scoop 18oz. Even when you dilute to 1 scoop 40oz still smoth. Thats why directions say 1 scoop 12-14oz strong taste. 1 scoop 20. Smooth. Sometimes i do like 1/2 scoop in 8oz water at night just bc at that dose it hits u like a really "good" sweet. Not a belly ache melted jolly rancher sweet. Part of the reason honestly why this flavor is so unique is I hate soda, candy bars, and candy but I bake cookies. So you gonna get what I think it should taste like. I honestly never had a "red" drink in my life till about 2 yrs ago.

Powder smells like whipped cupcakes. Come on when the last time a bcaa somehow smelled like cupcakes. That wasn't even planned. Small batches didnt really smell like anything.

Sipped Dieselade the entire workout. Had to swirl to make sure the "tiny" bit of sediment mixed in. Refreshing with little aftertaste.

I always love looking at your home set up. I figured out part of why I like it so much. Your roof / ceiling is soo much higher than mine!!! It makes it look so roomy in there even though I can see I am realistically taking up more real estate in my garage. Only thing I am confused about is why you don't have a climbing rope in there with that high roof.

Thanks Chris! The roof is high as the previous owner used to pull his bulldozers in there for maintenance. I can swing my ShouldeRok with no issues.

The ShouldeRok is fantastic for helping keep the shoulders limber and the stretch is noticed as you swing it clockwise and then counterclockwise. I really recommend the ShouldeRok!

long scoop, wide mouth, deep but not over the top deep container is some added value. I hate those new "preworkout" scoops
that have a 1" handle and your putting ur entire hand in there to scoop out some powder. Or you have to tilt the jig sideways to
get the powder out because the opening like a can of soda.

Kempo....if imma do it, imma do it right. I'm in the field like you guys. I gotta scoop this out 3x a day or so just like you .

I was feeling great while squatting, felt a little overheated, took off the hoodie and bam, cold muscle tweek!
Ya I dont know how pulled of 5 sets of WOD, after a tweak.
I foam rolled then did the WOD sets to stretch.
That's a good sign if the pain wasn't enough to have him end the session I'd hope!
I'm feeling a bit sore this afternoon and hope it heals quickly.

Back tweek feels good this morning, just a little stiff. I'm feeling the legs DOMS from squats yesterday but it's no that "can't walk" kind.

Will start using my 32 oz bottle for mixing Dieselaide in as the sweetness is still a little strong for me.
