Controlled Labs Stimino Loggers

Just got the PM super excited. I've been using c4 for like a year since I can find anything else cheaper. The wife's a stickler.

Totally different formula, comparing something with a nitrate and BA to something that is BCAA heavy with leucine (to a product that has none!)
 
When is this shopping out?

Hopefully we see it soon! I cannot wait to start. Been off stims for about 8 weeks except for a stim here or there for a review. Ready to go!

Silicon dioxide is very often used in the food industry I don't know of it to be linked

Silicon dioxide is diatomaceous earth, a naturally-occurring material composed of the shells of minute, single-celled algae.
 
Is there an amount of betaine that is harmful daily? Just asking because my creatine complex also contains betaine, including stimino!
 
Received mine! Will start log on Tuesday! Thanks gents!
 
Posted this in my log as well:

Day 1 Thoughts from yesterday:

No Stimino today its an off day(take 3 this week on this current mesocycle)
will be back to 5x a week training next week so i will dose 5x a week

Thoughts so far:

- Great energy, i dont need a lot of caffeine to get me going 200mg is a sweet spot. I had a pre-wrokout meal around noon, and then dosed the Stimino around 2-2:15 and trained at 2:30 till 3:45 for legs

- Hit a new PR of 365 x 7 on Squat at 169 pounds, energy was streaming and overall recovery was good. Was sweating up a storm, but i always train in a sweatshirt regardless of the time of the year.

- Good overall endurance, and did not notice much pump, but there is not much in the formula to contribute to that. Being that i have not really been on stims for a long time (about 8 weeks) 2 scoops had me pretty jacked up on energy (250mg) and stayed strong in my system for a good 90 minutes even after my workout ended and on my drive home.

Day 1 was good, looking forward to utilizing some stims for a short time period on the product. I am going to stick with 2 scoops pre-workout, but vary training in the AM Fasted and in the afternoon based off my work schedule or other social activities i have going on and do a comparison in the end of my run with the product. 29 more quality workouts to put this product to use.

-- Have to say. this FP Flavoring is unreal, its strong, powerful, and leaves a ridiculous after taste. Hardest thing to do is not drink it so fast. Found myself filling my shaker cup half way after almost finishing it in a few gulps (2 scoops in 16oz of water) tasted very good. No surprise CL Nails their flavoring on all their products.
 
Congrats on the PR! Nice log details
 


Week 1 Stimino Thoughts

Pump

Being a basic formula of caffeine, betaine, taurine, and leucine the amount of pump from this product is not something that shines compared to what glycergrow or white pump could offer if stacked with this product. Being a log it is meant to be run solo to gauge the true effects. Overall not much to note here regarding the pump from the product.

Energy

Great. 250mg from 2 scoops is plenty for a heavy leg day, and more than enough for workouts like Chest/Shoulders, Arms, Back which is a typical split I run (Similar to Mountain Dog) i will be moving to a 5x a week higher frequency program the next 4 weeks (new mesocycle) I will be running with Inov8 Elite Performance, so this will show me squatting/deadlifting/benching around 2x a week over the course of 5 days which will help test me limits and overall mental fortitude so the extra caffeine/stims will aid here.

Focus

Just like Pump, nothing to note here. Energy is good from the solo amount of caffeine, and nothing that makes me jitter or over anxious. I do not need a whole lot of stims to get me going so a lower stim product (125mg caffeine) a scoop gets the job done. Again if i could stack with other products in the CL line there may be a difference, but as a solo not so much

Workout Thoughts

Overall performance and recovery/endurance is up a bit (Betaine) which is the major factor in that. Taurine does aid this as well, but I am noticing some good strength gains (mostly from diet/training) but this has to be an aspect as it has been added into my arsenal and running it solo.
Overall very pleased with week 1 on the product and 8 scoops in the books. I am not using this on off days as I do not take stims on off days, and just keep them to workout days, so with working out 5x a week i will be pushing 20 scoops of this a week now and going through the tub quicker good thing there are plenty of servings left to be used!

Week 2 Stimino Thoughts

Pump

Being a basic formula of caffeine, betaine, taurine, and leucine the amount of pump from this product is not something that shines compared to what glycergrow or white pump could offer if stacked with this product. Being a log it is meant to be run solo to gauge the true effects. Overall not much to note here regarding the pump from the product. No real noticeable changes from week 1

Energy

No changes, moved to a 5x a week split, higher frequency and my energy has not dropped in my workouts. hit a new Squat PR, and also noted that my energy from day to day has increased seeing I train early it fuels me for 4:30-5 AM Sessions. Overall no complains.

Focus

. Energy is good from the solo amount of caffeine, and nothing that makes me jitter or over anxious. I do not need a whole lot of stims to get me going so a lower stim product (125mg caffeine) a scoop gets the job done. Again if i could stack with other products in the CL line there may be a difference, but as a solo not so much.

If i were to stack i would add a form of a nootropic, but again not necessary. the caffeine alone helps fuel early AM Sessions.

Workout Thoughts

Added another rep to squats from last week, added more TUT (time under tension) To some accessory movements, and also feeling greater MMC (Mind muscle connection) during some of my back movements. Very happy to see my training getting turned up a notch, and also seeing some more productive workouts.
100's x 9 on DB incline Bench
110's x 10 on DB Flat Bench
375 x 8 Squat were my highligts

Nice to hit some PRs along the way!
 
Second week of StimINO Impressions

I've been taking 2 scoops of StimINO in a fasted state every morning for two weeks. Here are my further impressions:

Mixing 8/10
Swirl but don't shake as the aminos cause foaming. This was expected and the good thing is no undissolved material remains.

Taste 8/10
I've tried from 8 to 16 oz of water. The sweet spot is still 10 oz. The taste grows on you and I'm starting to like it so I bumped the rating up. I wish CL would drop the acesulfame, but that's my opinion.

Energy and Pump 8/10
The caffeine still hits in about 20 mins on an empty stomach giving you smooth energy without jitters. The hang time is about 4 hours. Typical caffeine crash occurs but nothing serious just that afternoon need for tea or coffee feeling. No pump or vascularity is noticed.

Recovery and Endurance 8/10
With StimINO I'm feeling fairly recovered between lifting sessions. Where I'm seeing this supplement shine is in the endurance area. I've already noticed some substantial increases in workout volume!

Price 6/10
I like StimINO so I visited the CL website. Guys, the price seems high to be honest. I'm sure, like other supplements, that price competition will drive the price down. The bottle indicates 60 servings but my Stim tolerance dictates 30! Maybe CL could produce a high and low stim version? Lol
 
2 scoops in 20oz is my sweet spot as well man, the little bit of foaming does not really bother me, i can almost guarentee you there will be some killer sales i would not jump on that price just yet buddy.
 
Any other loggers experiencing improved sleep with StimINO? I'm telling you that I'm sleeping like a happy baby!!

Yes but I can't tell if it is from Stimino or the fact that I quit my job so I can sleep in everyday
