I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to test out this new PWO from PNI. I love trying different preworkout products because I feel they can always get better. So I took the first dose of it after a long days work yesterday and went to the gym. And it was friday so it was also after a long week of work Lol. When I got to the gym I was ready to go and hit chest. Started with bench.

185x10
225x5
275x5
300x1 (didnt feel good so backed off)

So lets talk taste and mixability and all that. I opened the container and (look at the size of that scoop) the first thing i noticed was like a grape sweet tart smell. Mix it up and it tasted just as good as it smelled. There was a little bit of settling to the bottom and a little bit of foam after shaking but i dont mind that much. Overall Im not disappointed I'm obligated to log this for 14 servings ;)

Alright guys here we go. Im starting to notice Im feeling big and feeling full. My strength is right where it was a month ago which is interesting cause I've lost 20 pounds in that time and almost 4% body fat. The only problem is how jacked up my hands are. They're getting better slowly but it still isn't nice lifting with a giant blister for a hand. Anyways I did shoulders today.

Started with standing BB OHP.
95X10
135X10
155X8
185X5
135 3X5

Upright rows SS/ EZ CURL Bar front raises
90X10X3/50X10X3

Seated DB shoulder press SS/ DB lateral raises
65's,75's,80's,80's
10,8,6,6
Lat raise 25'sx10x3

I was going a little lighter on pulling motions to accommodate my hurting hands from my new job.
Didnt have a whole lot of time so kinda just went in to get a quick pump. Super happy with how lean Im getting. Like I'm seriously blown away and have a hard time believing the guy I'm seeing in the mirror is me.
Tomorrow I'll hit up some legs and im going to up the volume by ALOT.
But heres the main thing. 15 minutes after i drank it I started getting the beta alanine tingles (which I love btw lol) and by the time i was dropping my kid off at the gyms' day care I was about to Sprint down the halls and push anyone out of the way who got in my way just to smash some iron. The fact that I didnt have much time didnt help that. Got a wicked pump in a short amount of time and left the gym feeling good despite the small workload.
Tomorrow is HULK SMASH day!

Hit the gym directly after work for a much needed squat session.

Squat
135x10
225x10
315x5
365 3x3
315 3x5

Front rack BB lunge
135 3x10(5 each leg)

Leg press SS/ calf raise
4ppsx10
6ppsx10
5ppsx10

10 calf raises for each 10 leg press. My legs are screaming. I thought I've been feeling my strength deteriorating a bit with all the weight ive lost but my squats felt as strong as ever. Probably couldve went up to 405 for reps if i hadnt worked 10 hours today. Overall happy with my session today. Happy as well with this pwo.

Chugged this pwo on my way to the gym. Got to the gym and changed into my workout clothes and shoes and by the time i was done i felt it kicking in. Its got a very nice energy kick to get me going after a long day at work. Love the taste as well. Been getting very nice pumps too and the focus is on point.

To have the energy and stamina to hit the gym with that intensity after the hard physical labor you're doing all day long, is impressive!

Great log Chris!

So far the effects of this pwo are going strong still. They're not fading the more i take it which is what happens with me a lot of the time. So that makes me happy.

I actually decided instead of taking a rest day i did an hour or so worth of light DB and bodyweight conditioning exercise. Too much stuff to want to log but it consisted of burpees db swings presses turkish get ups air squats pushups planks and whatnot. Took my preworkout 20 minutes before and literally crushed it. I honestly gotta say this pwo rocks. Im not sure what the other loggers are saying about it but ive got nothing but good to say about it. My 2.5 year old son spent a good portion trying to copy what i was doing lol makes for a fun time

Ah man, I just checked out the screenshot you posted of the label and I'm jealous -- I've been wanting to try a product with 2-amino-methylheptane for a while now! Are you getting a positive-minded, euphoria-like feeling after taking the PWO? In general, are you noticing a better "feeling" from taking Prodigy as compared to when you've taken other PWOs?
stryder -- Not to sound tacky, but is there any chance you guys have sample packets of the product available to try?

No gym update from the last few days cause i took some family time for the long weekend. Weighing 206 today and looking lean and I have new vascularity that i haven't seen in a while. In my lats and obliques. I have the horizontal veins going across my biceps. Got veins popping out in my delts and chest and triceps that Ive literally never seen before. Doing good i like it.

Thanks for the update, Chris!

The formula was designed to give consistent results without diminishing effects. Other Pre's that are primarily stimulant based quickly lose their effects once stim tolerance is established.

Got myself into the gym today. After this past week i decided to start over my training cycle of cube kingpin and lower the max weight because my strength has gone down on bench. Surprisingly my squat and deadlift seem as strong as ever its just the bench that is hurting.

Bench day- reps
Comp bench
135x10
185x12
205 3x10

CGBP
225 3x5

The high reps were killing me lol
I'm rededicating myself to strength here. Gonna follow cube for 10 weeks and see where im at and maybe try out a different method.

Incline DB SS/ Incline DB fly
Incline db 70's 4 sets
12,8,10,10
Incline db fly 40's

Abs
Decline sit ups ss/ leg raises/ v-ups

Felt good to get in there today. Got a killer pump and the energy was kickin. Forgot my headphones and even without loud metal and the surrounding noise blocked out my focus was on point and had tunnel vision. Just me and the weights. Getting pretty close to running out here. Gonna miss it when its gone...

Used my last dose of this pwo today... Hit shoulders with OHP side and front raises upright rows and shrugs. Final thoughts on the product...
From day one to the last time i used it it stayed the same. Awesome pump, clean smooth energy, excellent focus and it seemed to promote an overall sense of wellbeing. Loved it from start to finish. Tastes amazing. Very sweet taste so if you're not into that it might be a bit strong tasting for you.
Idk what the price range will be for it but i would definitely be willing to purchase some when the product drops. Thanks again to stryder for selecting me to rest this product. Loved it.
