FIRST EXPERIENCE :
Invalid Link Removed
I poured the sample pack into a measuring spoon so I could better gage what a 1/2 serving would be.
MIX-ABILITY — (8/10):
Mixed “as expected”/just like any other pre. Didn’t dissolve insanity or anything crazy. But it wasn’t clumpy or problematic.
TASTE — (8/10):
Tastes like grape
. Nothing really to say here other than, again, tastes “as expected”. Tastes good though. A bit refreshing, and I don’t see grape flavor pre too often tbh.
PUMP — (7/10):
Pump was not huge or overly dramatic. I also only took 1/2 serving and you are going to want a full serving to really reap the benefits of the pump aspect from this formula.
side note: VASCUALRITY — (8.5/10):
Though I will say while the pump wasn’t crazy, the vascularity certainly was for me. I’m bulking now, and during my cut this summer I didn’t really have vascularity intra workout as good as it was today (should’ve got pic, can in future).
FOCUS/ENERGY — (9/10):
This is obviously the shining point of this product. Great focus and energy. But it felt super
clean, and a bit subtle. It didn’t really “
kick” in, like most pres. I just subtly noticed that one second I was warming up and such and slowly I was just in the fucking zone. Lol.
SIDES/NEGATIVES — (5/10):
I’ve never used Alpha-Y, but have tons of experience with regular yohimbe. Alpha-Y is to be much more tolerable, and it was. But I also only used a 1/2 serving and still experienced some cold sweats post workout (a known yohimbe side for those unaware). So I’d imagine it could be more pronounced with a full serving. I also felt a bit of a ‘come down’ post workout, which obviously comes with the territory, but some do not enjoy that.
OVERALL — (8/10):
Solid pre, and I may higher my rating after a few more days. If I were to purchase this I think it’d be better off because of my low stim/caff tolerance, it would take me at least a week to work up to a full serving and really start to enjoy it. We will see.
For someone like me this will probably serve best as a “save the day” preworkout. For days where I’m really dragging ass, or PR attempts, etc. Also in a cut as I want to use Alpha-Y in my next cut so it’d be nice to have a serving right in my pre.
Friday I’m going for a 5RM on bench press (just hit a new 5RM last week), so that will be a great time to put my theory to the test.
) to review.
sample packs, I will be using later on today for the first time to weigh in on my initial thoughts. I am fairly stim sensitive and typically don’t take in more than ~200mg caffeine at one time, so I will be starting with a 1/2 serving. This log will probably serve well to those of you considering SS who are also jittery, tweaky, sensitive fellows such as myself.
