I sent this pic to all her contacts from her phone, now she is pissed, LOL!

I'm 51 years old and recovery after training takes way too long for me. Stress levels are high, because I have to watch over my 14 yo daughter constantly. Apparently, Vicious Labs has the answer. They sent me a bottle of BLIGHT for testing. Main ingredient is Ashwagandha, a known herb (root) that has the ability to reduce stress and cortisol.
Here a good study to read:

Indications are 1-3 capsules on an empty stomach. Gonna go for 2x day.
Stay tuned...

It's a pretty basic dosed product with 20mg withanolides per two caps. I'm using boom stick by redcon 1 (booo hisss) and it has 25mg per serve plus all the other placebo potion ingredients. At least we will see what it does on its own.

Looks like a vape but your idea is in better context with the caption!

Oh yeah, count me in! I do lean out but also tend to get more inflammation issues with anything that controls cortisol well. So curious how this will go for you.

FYI, in my honest opinion you are already leaner than you think. I can see that by how tight your skin is around your abdomen and belly button.

@MrKleen73 got it right, its my vape, lol. A remnant from my nicotine addiction. A club or a machete would have served better, I recon. :)

The pic was shot at the end of my short winstrol run. Wini is sort of magic -but the scale doesn't lie, since my water fast and keeping it at intermittent fasting, I'm down almost 16lbs and holding.
Don't mention my damn belly button. Have a slight hernia I would like to forget about.

Press on it, when you feel the intestine goes inward, you'll know.

I might have a very minor one, if I push my finger inside my belly button and brace i can feel the pressure push out on my finger, but it has not prolapsed or anything. The innie is still an innie at this point.

Stange product to review only a staple -
An anti-cortisol supplement as a staple? I have never heard of anyone using an anticort supp as a staple. However if good enough to be a staple then it should definitely have a positive effect by adding it. I would say that most everyone I know running an anticortisol supplement is trying to lose fat which is why most people take it.

Why do you use it as a staple?

I understand what you are saying. Would have loved to log something like M1T or 3-Andro, stuff I never tried.
I promised a log on it and got it for free. Since I'm off of any supplements, I thought that I could feel it out.

thats a very well known side effect from ashwagandha (especially KSM 66).
Yep, read about it. Hopefully its only a placebo side effect -or transitory.

Don’t think you’ll be finding many companies passing out M1T for logging opportunities...but if you do, holla atcha boi

well not sure about that, for me it lasted almost the entire bottle and had to eventually throw it away :), good anxiety control though.
I only have anxiety on leg days, because of my fugged up knees. :)

Well to be fair... Stabbing someone in the jugular for inappropriate feels on the daughter would be savage status. If anyone would wield such a fierce weapon it would be the HGP.

So you said no supplements... Are you off all the gear at this moment?

I’d just caution comparing that. Even without all those other random things, the extraction process and amount of withanolides percentage gives different feels and benefits.

Ya so strange to log a product that actually has tons of research showing benefits and effects that can definitely be quantitatively evaluated. 🤷‍♂️

If it becomes an issue you can always just dose it in the evenings.

Otherwise good luck, ksm66 is some good stuff.

Cruising on 250mg test/w -but nothing else. If I feel anything, it should be from the KSM-66.

Yes, it could be a great sleep aid!

In! For what it’s worth, I definitely prefer KSM in the evening. 600mg in the day always made me kind of tired, splitting the dose works fine for me as well

Day 3 of Blight:

Its official, it makes me sleepy when dosing in the morning. Has to be fairly potent to make me feel that way, with only one capsule. Will put it beside my bed, taking one before sleep and one when I wake up for a bathroom break.

You hear both sides with KSM. Alot of people feel much more aware and awake yet calm on it, others it makes them drowsy. As with any adaptogen it really runs the gammit.
This, some of them make me feel like my blood sugar has plummeted and others make me feel amazing.

I take 600mg pre workout and 300mg post, definitely doesn't make me sleepy.

KSM made me sleepy at first but after dosing 600mg everyday it eventually subsided after a couple weeks.

This is again why you see it in preworkouts and sleep/calming aids. Can be great depending on your said need and how you react.
Definitely a versatile extract.

First time I ever used it was in a prop blend in dorian Yates test x. Still the only natural test booster to give me any kjnd of proper alpha male feelings after the first week of use. Whether or not that had anything to do with the ksm I don't know but it's actually one of my most missed supplements.

Dosed at night it works as good as a "Brownie", for a lack of comparison. :)

30 min after taking it makes me sleepy.

I purchase Ashwaganda in extract form online, bags of it. I take it when I feel stressed. It doesn't mix well with much.I imagine the taste is like cramming in a mouth full of ground up mulch.

As long as it's not "Mushroom Mulch" it will be ok !!
