RIPPED COCKTAIL

Midpoint Review
​

I'm going to try and keep this short and sweet because usually my narratives can get a little drawn out and people end up having to refer to my TL;DR conclusion at the end! First off, some of you may be wondering why my log went from Day 3 to Day 10 and I had no updates in between. I recently celebrated my one year anniversary with my wife and didn't have much time to update. HOWEVER, I did have time to continue taking Ripped Cocktail throughout my vacation (and snapped some shots of it traveling with me :))!

I've kept the dosage the same on all days. Depending on when I wake up, I'll take two scoops leveled off at the top of drop it into about 8-12oz. of water. Like most supplements if you want a tasty beverage use less water! I think 8-12oz is the sweet spot (with 2 scoops) and works well for me. The flavor is delicious and so is the smell. It goes back easy and doesn't leave any tangy or bitter aftertaste. Now I will admit... when I was in a rush to take my final third scoop for the day that a few times what I ended up doing was "shooting" the Ripped Cocktail. I'd take the scoop, place it onto my tongue, and chase it with water. If you do it this way then you will get some tangy aftertaste but nothing you can't handle (compared to bulk Forskolin or DAA).

With that being said, taking it 3x/day has me approaching the end of this log. However, the benefits I'm seeing from it are very beneficial. This may end up replacing your coffee/early morning fountain drink/caffeinated beverage! And it should... because the benefits you receive from doing so far outweight what a coffee or Mountain Dew can provide. In my opinion, the thermogenesis provided from RC was little to barely noticeable for me. I didn't feel the hotness in my stomach or radiating outwards. This may be a positive for some of you that don't like that feeling. The inclusion of Beta Alanine is what you'll feel kick in first. Not sure what type of BA Ripped Cocktail contains, but just like SpeedX3, you'll get the tingles right off the bat. The next noticeable effect is your boost in cognition, alertness, more awake, more "in tune" with whats going on around you, and even a slight boost in good mood/feeling. This is fantastic for me because the work environment I'm in requires me to be at my best and on alert constantly. Appetite suppression wasn't the best... but it never has been. I'm following IF protocol and don't eat until 1-2PM (after waking up around 5AM, so a 16/8 fast/feed schedule) and I ALWAYS get the hungry/growling stomach in the morning hours no matter what. I'm holding off on commenting on the leaning/fat burning effects of RC until I reach the end of this log so I can show it off better with pictures and final bodyweight numbers. My strength is continuing to go up in ALL my lifts and that third scoop halfway through my day really helps me stay focused on work when that "2:30 feeling" approaches.

Lecheek has created a fantastic little stimmed mood enhancer with fat burning abilities and I'm excited to see it through to the end!

LOL did I say I'd keep this short. Oops.

Thanks! Yea it came up easier than I expected. Once I got it past my shins I knew I had it! Hope to get 495 or even into the 500s by my birthday (January). By then I may start to think about competing again!

Nice deads!! Wow, 405 right on to 450! And you are cutting correct? Impressive
Click to expand...

Well I had previously pulled 415 about a month and a half ago so I just wanted to do 405 to warm me up. Not necessarily in the "cutting" mindest, but I switched over to IF Protocol for eating (I don't consider it a "diet") and its definitely put me on the recomp path for sure.

IF is good for that. I will definitely use leangains protocol for every cut I do. Kind of tough to get 3,000+ cals in so I am not doing it during a bulk
 
Final review will be posted Saturday. I don't like filming my vids when my wife is home because 1)she thinks its dumb and 2) she doesn't think supplements are worthwhile lol so I'll do it when she's at work!
 
First of DJ's insane with the vids I swear he could go Hollywood. Also Dj awesome Deads my friends especially seen how your twice the height as me lol. I wonder what a shot of cocktail and shot of Prodigy would do hmmm light bulb!!
