STRAFE ™ multi dosing

Make sure you have a chaser.

Woof.

Matt told me that and I was thankful. I used Coke Zero. He tells me after that was a poor choice and I should have used Dr. Pepper -- lol thanks for the late notice!

But yeah, took me back to HS and my only shot ever of Jack -- not pleasant on the way down, nor something to sip.

thank you for the heads up.. if I didn't have something to chase with... dear Lord. In my head "hmm, I really hope this doesn't taste as bad as it smells" *gulp* "oh dear, oh dear.. where the hell is that chaser!"

I'll report back tomorrow effects, but damn is that some nasty ish! haha

Enjoy, friend :)
 
Yeah no where near tasty. But as Matt said, 0 calories, no hangover, great sleep, and hits hard. Luckily it doesn't take a whole lot to get you where you need to be.
 
Im unable to train at the moment, so Im lifting vicariously through you guys in this competition...will pay to see packages (even if unimpressive) and moar training footage
 
Great setup today...a friend of mine is going one last time for his pro card at NPC Nationals.

Caught without a sponsor, we are doing a 100% EvoMuse prep, including 3x Strafe dosing and MyoSynergy (BMP and Elite when they show up).

Nerve Restore, Slintensity, Eviscerate Smolder, and Gut Health will fill out his prep.

Flavor alerts...samples on the way for new Strafe flavors.

I'm trying to hit a flavor combo that I have been trying to hit ever since we attempted it at Scivation with NeuroStim - which is Orange-Pineapple.

I also have a sample of Raspberry-Pineapple on the way just to see how that combo works.

I have decided to really focus on trying to get the Mega Pouches out. Even if you only keep your dosage at 1 per day, you will still save money

Mega pouches ftw (Kangaroo STRAFE???).

Also, excited for the new flavor possibilities and hope they work out -- sound tasty!

This is music to my ears ?
 
I don't wanna toot my own horn but I go so hard that I often question the efficacy and my own sanity between the hiit training I do and the heavy 5x5 with hypertrophy work ... Earlier today I was taking a cold shower post work out and was like damn. I need to recover better.. On a cut and it's just grueling daily at this point
 
Anyone else mix the strafe into your protein shake?

When I go to bed later than expected and my meal was 1.5-2hours ago, I'll mix a scoop of Strafe with a scoop of protein. Only tried vanilla and unflavored tho. Both are good. All subjective though. I think Strafe tastes amazing, while others think it's bitter.

I have been mixing all my strafe with protein. I have been using usp modern protein which is a blend and makes it very versitile. I do one in the am, postworkout and before bed. I love the way strafe tastes. On its own its great two. I dont really like vanilla protein, but the strafe makes it much better. Also with the protein it cuts the slight bitterness .
 
Ive done the last three shakes with just strafe and i actually like it. dsade did a good job witht he flavor

The very first one I had I felt like I had to stomach it down a bit, but to be honest, I actually like it now. And I, like Matt, am not a fan of cantaloupe at all. Given what he had to work with, he made it taste great.

Agreed, if you saw when I was posting to the log, in the beginning the stuff was a little challenging, but it gets better. Im not a fan of cantalope either but I can say it is a giant leap above what this COULD taste like...

Ive also been harping on the recovery aspect of this and picked up one of the mega pouches to play around a little bit, this stuff, like everything else, has been great!
 
If you guys have ever tasted BCAAs unflavored, then you have a small hint at what this powder tastes like unflavored. The a-KIC and Ca-HMB are easily ten times worse.
 
Had some bad luck with flooding at the warehouse and lost a few ingredients. Replacements arrived today, and I'm hoping to have some packs of the new Orange-Pineapple available soon.
 
I've finally got 6 days off, after working 30 12 hr days in a row. Shall I just pound strafe 2-3x a day to recover this week or stick to 1-2? And if you don't mind the questions, what else besides rest/strafe/massage etc. can I do to recover my body in preparation for the next 30 day run? All while still trying to make progress in the gym.
 
I can't answer for Matt, but I hadn't heard any more updates on the new flavoring in terms of being brought to retail; just that the trial was very positive.

And just my own .02, I'd utilize the Strafe at 2x/day rather than going 3x just to make it last longer. Assuming your nutrition and protein is up to par otherwise, a third dose wouldn't be as noticeable of a difference. Especially if you're stacking with something like OG MyoSynergy or even Ergonine which has a good HICA content in it, too.

Morning and post workout is what i would do. I work out at night so the time from then till bed is minimal. Basically am pm i think would be beneficial
 
Since I work out in the morning usually fasted (unless you count intraworkout carbs) for double dosing, I'd probably do something like pre-bed and pre-workout (or the "morning" dose)
 
Final Results.

Its been around a week since i finished my strafe run. My plan for this log was to run a triple dose of strafe, push harder than ever before and ultimately train everyday with no days off. Ive done all of the above. For the past week ive cut back on my volume, taken days off and maintained my diet. As a result ive definitely filled out what ive depleted during my run and have really seen some amazing results. This has been the best month of training and progress ive ever had. I think the pressure and accountability of the log has really helped me push past my usual limits.

I trained a total of 31 days straight, which I initially only planned on doing 25, but the product lasted me 31.

Product review:
Strafe is not the greatest tasting supp, but ive grown to like it. It mixes great and i loved putting it in my vanilla protein. I actually really like it and as a result, ive ordered more. Its a great recovery tool and is excellent during an overreaching program. I did notice less soreness, and was subsequently able to train the same body parts multiple days in a row, which is something i dont normally do. For example legs i was doing two days in a row, and shoulders i was hitting constantly.

I will say two things, strafe is not magic, but if used in a situation where you are pushing yourself beyond your limits, it absolutely will aid in your success. I have found it to be very effective in my overreaching.

I think that in the future i will be dosing once in the am and once in the pm. Since i train at night the double pm dosages maybe not be as nessesary.

Being off strafe for a week or so, I can absolutely feel a difference in my recovery. Most notibly in my shoulders, which ive had to reduce from four times a week to twice, legs from twice a week to once, and arms from four times a week to twice.

I am very thankful for being chosen to log this product. I want to thank dsade, evomuse and my AM fam for supporting me and following my run!

Incredible review, brother.

Thank you so much for your dedication and your detailed notes.

Congrats on the PRs -- that's awesome and I'm happy for you!

And I agree wholeheartedly about the taste; I gagged the first time lol. But even though I don't love the flavor, I kind of enjoy it every night. That said, I can't wait for orange pineapple ;)

Yea the flavor is a shock at first but its so unique ive grown to like canteloupe lol. Its well worth it due to its effectiveness and it makes these vanilla shakes taste much much better. I cant wait for the new flavor either. Also interested in who won this contest lol.
 
Strafe is definitely not the best tasting thing ive ever had lol. Mixing it with unflavored Ergonine. Wishing I got the nana berry to mask the taste of strafe.
 
I bet a lot of people forgot about this thread...but I'm guessing I know of 2 people who didn't ;)

Since BMP is in house and ready to ship, we're ready to start voting on who won the showdown between EMPIREMIND and kbayne with their multi-dosing logs.

You can see EM's final review above and I'm posing KB's below this:

Final review:

Thanks to dsade for allowing me to run a triple dose of Strafe.

I trained 7 days a week, which I had been doing prior to starting Strafe. My split was the following:

Legs
Chest/Shoulders
Back
Chest/Shoulders
Leg/Arms
Back
Arms

Every session was different with a different focus, intensity level, total volume, and end goal. I have tried a variety of splits and found that the above is what works best for me and I am able to train 7 days a week with a balanced diet and training program.

I currently have about 2 more weeks on my current training program before I switch it up.

Taste (7/10): Strafe was good. I know it is very hard to flavor the ingredients in Strafe as I have tried them in bulk before without flavoring (do not recommend). I always just went about slamming it so honestly the taste didn't make a difference to me as it wasn't something I sipped on. I hear there is an updated version which may have enhanced the flavor.

Mixability (10/10): No complaints at all here. Simply threw it in a shaker with water, gave it a shake for a few seconds, and then slammed it. It does foam though, which maybe products will/should with the ingredient profile as in Strafe.

Recovery (5/10): Here is where I wanted to really test the product with the type of training I do. I honestly pushed harder throughout the run than I normally do as I do a "heavy day" or "balls to the walls" and the secondary muscle group day is more high volume and high pump day. But throughout the run I pretty much tried to go heavy with high volume to see what I could really do. I didn't really notice a difference in recovery from what I had normally been doing. I still was able to train the split how I set it up without any negative effects. As I stated previously, legs are the worst for me when it comes to DOMS. And I had some severe DOMS going on. I do believe the product would shine in terms of recovery for someone who doesn't have their diet on point as well as training program.

Strength (7/10): I did notice a slight increase in strength during the run. I have been off Strafe for about a week and half now and strength is still progressing slowly. When I talk about strength, I am talking weights, not reps and sets. I hadn't pressed 130 dumbbells for a while until I did this Strafe run, and if you watched the videos, I was able to push 130lb dumbbells on flat and 120lb dumbbells on incline. Just yesterday I threw up 125lb dumbbells on incline bench for 6 reps. Many different variables could have came into play here with the strength increase.

Diet: Just so everyone knows, diet stayed the exact same throughout the run.

Body composition: No difference in body composition going from the scale and mirror. I started at 197 and weighed in consistently at 197-198 pounds.

If there is anything I missed or anyone has any questions, just ask I will give you an answer straight up.

Overall, I enjoyed the product and think it could benefit numerous amount of individuals in recovery and strength. I hope this log and review helped some members get a feel for Strafe and if they think it would benefit them or not.

Again, thanks dsade for the chance to run this product as I honestly love EvoMuse products (especially Slintensity and MyoSynergy (haven't ran elite yet). I know you put in the dedication, time, and work when it comes to your products and hopefully people realize this as well and understand you put on quality and effective products.

So feel free to look at their reviews and/or comb through their logs and let's hear what you think. Both guys killed it, but we can have only one champion crowned.
 
Honestly wasn't even tripping since I heard Matt was in surgery. Glad it all went smoothly for him though.
