I wanted to mention that i have been running a "cut" diet for quite some time. As you can see if you have been watching my log, i have kept a pretty clean diet. I have only been weighing myself about once a week. I have been fluctuating quite a bit but have been pretty happy. On top of the Nimbus Blast i have been running USP Labs Recreate in the morning, as well as USP Labs Anabolic Pump with my light carb meals, USP Labs P-Slin with heavy carb meals (pre-workout).
I started cleaning up my diet when i got back from spring break, we will say late March. I weighed in at 276 at my heaviest this year. I hopped on the scale last night and saw, to my delight, 260. I am down 16 lbs in about 8 weeks. I am really excited about this, it has been tough for me to lose BF while retaining strength. Ill be honest and say i have not done any cardio for the last 2-3 weeks. I want to slowly start adding it into our regimen but it is hard. Some of our training days are lasting over two hours due to the complexity of the math (haha) and the movements.
I dont know if i can contribute any of this weight loss directly to Nimbus Nutrition Blast but i can contribute my drive and energy levels to it. It has pushed me past my prior boundaries and has changed my training drastically.
This sounds like a strong conclusion but i will keep writing as i have about one weeks worth of Blast left. I want to mention again that i appreciate everyones support including the viewers, commenter's and Nimbus Nutrition representatives.

Training: Max Effort, Lower Body
Deadlift, Conventional Stance, 35lbs Plates only (this lowers the bar about 2.5" and increases ROM: 185x5, 185x5, 255x5, 325x3, 395x1, 465x1, 515x1, 495x1, 495x1
Single Leg Light Band Hamstring Curls: 9, 9, 8 , 7
Average Band Pull Throughs: 8, 12, 11
Body Weight, Mid Grip Pull Ups: 7, 7, 6
Standing Barbell Curls: 90x15, 90x15, 100x12
Standing Hammer Curls: 65x10, 65x10
Standing Crunches, Light Band: 4 Sets of ~10

Diet
My diet was spot on, perfect meal frequency and timing.



We went to Applebees post-workout and i slammed a 9oz sirloin w/ two servings of veggies. No sin-licensing here, i felt awesome about my progress and i only want it to continue.

Today is an off day, i may run in and do some cardio later.

Thanks for watching!

I am sad to say that today will be my final analytical post on Nimbus Nutrition Blast. I have been done with the bottle for about a week and have dabbled with other pre-workout energy supplements, attempting to gain an idea of how this product went up against the others.

I have been thinking about it and i think what i want to do is rate this product on a 1-5 scale on a few different attributes.

PRODUCT PACKAGING
++++ (4/5), reserving the 5th in case they want to use a picture of me on their package.

PRODUCT LABELING
+++++ (5/5), Great info about dosing and ingredients.

PRODUCT AMOUNT
+++++ (5/5), This bottle seemed to last forever (which is a good thing)

SERVING SIZE
++++ (4/5), The claimed serving size of 1 scoop seems a little low if this is the only stimulant used. I had dabbled with serving sizes and found that 2-2.5 scoops "revved my engine."

TASTE
+++++ (5/5), The taste was great because although it was obvious it was present, you did not get the gritty, chemical taste that you do with some PreWO drinks. It easily mixed into Xtend and or WMS... anything.

SMELL
+++++ (5/5), Good smell, no chem smell that annoys all around you like some other PreWO drinks do.

MIXABILITY
+++++ (5/5), This was probably one of the best points of this product. It mixed well into everything i tried. You could not taste or see chunks or granules like you sometimes can. Very fine powder.

DIGESTION
+++++ (5/5), I had great digestion with this product. I never had any heartburn or acid taste. BIG strength!

TOLERANCE BUILDING
+++ (3,5), This was one of the only week points of the product and as i am concerned it is not the complexes problem, it is simply single ingredients. I would usually do two work outs on, 1 work out off, and it seemed to take care of the issue.

OVERALL FEELING
++++++ (6/5), This product gives the exact stimulation that we all look for. No shakes, no jitters, no out of your mind feeling. I found that it was NOT like an energy drink, more like the warm cut of quality tea feeling. Euphoric, calm, collected but driven and ready to train. Very smooth transitions and no crashes.

AWESOMENESS
+++++ (5/5), Because i tested it.





I want to again thank prld2gr8ns from Nimbus Nutrition as well as Nimbus Nutrition as a whole. The representatives have been extremely supportive and helpful throughout this entire log. Also, thank you to anybody else that posted or PMed me, i really appreciate it!!!

I want to also mention that i am very interested in doing more sponsered logs. Simply PM me if you are interested.


Thanks for watching,
Casey
