A prebed drink? As in growth hormone/ sleep or nutrition/protein? Very curious.
Testing coming soon (I will have about 10). This is a prebed drink, and we will be starting testing with a Honeydew-Cantaloupe flavor, to avoid associated effects of normal preworkout flavors (placebo stimulant effect.)
All ingredients are ordered and are on the way.

SleepingTrying to dissect the name... Coming up empty lol
Idk I just tried to make it work...don't judge meWhy would u want to eviscerate your muscles...
Strafe™ is a pretty straightforward product designed to maximize the muscle protein synthesis and Anti-catabolic properties of Leucine metabolism. We follow along the entire pathway, providing substrate for subsequent reactions that end up creating muscle. Strafe™ is designed to take right before bed, with or without the addition of a slow-acting protein like Casein.
It wasn't until the HMB sale patent expired in 2013 that we were able to find material of the same quality without the huge overcharge (a dumb move, IMO). So...here we go:
Leucine, provided in a 2:1:1 BCAA ration
Keto-Isocaproate - the first Leucine metabolite in the ultimate pathway to activate mTOR.
HICA - a further metabolite that is pretty kickass, even on its own (see the MyoSynergy writeup)
Ca-HMB - No, this doesn't feel like Deca but the initial testing of everything combined is yielding some excellent results in the context of the entire formula.
Betaine (Trimethylglycine) - methyl donor and a newish nutrient to generate a huge emount of excitement from a strength, endurance, and hypertrophy perspective. This will require more study support than I am going to post today - gotta wait for the writeup.
Several weeks of timing experiments, and we determined that pre-bed nutrition was the most lacking. Strafe will trigger both Muscle Protein Synthesis, and will counteract catabolism well into the night.
10 grams right before bed. If you have eaten a protein meal in the past 2 hours, just use it alone. If not, mix it with a scoop of whey or EAAs to maximize protein synthesis.
Strafe™ samples are also going out today for all of the orders that came through the Shopify site. I'll be looking for testers next week to run a full 30-day review.
Did you ever select users for a 30 day run & review? I'd love to do it, I workout at night on weekdays so I usually have a pretty heavy, high protein meal close to bed.
Unfortunately my supplier sent me 100 grams of HICA, so the best I could do was send samples.
About to start a log on monday in case anyone wants to follow. Taste is definitely on point though
You should taste the unflavored blend. Tastes like dirty dish water.
And how you know how that tastes?
Now that someone who tried many favors lol ;-)

profile looks solid, massive amounts of actives for leucine metabolites
I have used Strafe 3 times so far... I'm not quite ready to post up a review but it definitely is working.
I like the cantaloupe flavour but there is an aftertaste to it, tolerable but noticeable. Will the final product flavouring be the same? I'd actually like to get an unflavoured version of it so I can mix it my flavoured protein powders.
in for the review!
