HyperMax XT - Strawberry Kiwi

Yea the problem with HydroMax 65% Glycerol it pulls a ton of water which fluffs up the powder. So right from production its likely pretty spot on, but after a while it will certainly hold less. With a true serving at 13.9 grams I would be very interested in your experience at that full dose of 14g.

Just a FYI, we are actually going to be the first company to use a new form of 65% Glycerol that is incredibly stable and does not puff up or clump. This will ensure the proper scoop weight from first scoop to the last. I can almost guarantee it will become the new form of Glycerol used on the market, but again Performax will be the first.

I measured out 14g after realizing that I may have not been taking the full serving.... and... well. wow. yes! Still think it tastes bad, but now it's worth it ;).
The energy and power is about the same as I was experiencing before, but the Focus blend was ****1NG BAD AZZ! I've been pretty cooked with my workouts adding up and going hard AF! Monday (Quads), Tuesday (Chest), Wednesday (Back).
Today I woke up dead tired and after taking a 14g dose I was smilling withing minutes. Smiling as I warmed up. LOL Great euphoric feeling with this one!
I like it!

Thoughts:
Great workout. Pumps at forearms were ridiculous. I never use straps and I had to whip those bad boys out. Slept less last night and hypermax did not fail me to wake me up. I added a new thing. Serving # at the top. I am almost done logging this and getting close to final review.. but it will not change much from my detailed review on page 2. It has been treating me the same and taking 2 weeks off helped it hit a bit harder again. But like with all pre workouts do not use them everyday! haha. Still to this day using it... I can not get over the flavor. I am not big on complaining in taste, but this just doesn't work for me. I always have to chug it down
 
Are you still doing the full 14gs?

Also for flavor, were doing a relaunch in October and flavors were a major focus for us so were hoping you like the improved flavoring system!

Had another great workout. Really felt my chest pumping today. The bench weight felt really easy today (taking yesterday off to recover). The hypermax pumps were not so much vascular today, but felt more like a tissue swell. I felt thicker.

*Workout routine changed today since I stayed up late last night watching IT. Planning to hit the gym after work. This is good because it will give me the opportunity to switch it up and take it under different physical/mental environment. My regular routine is first thing in the morning at 4 am. now I will be taking it around 5 or 5:30 PM and with a big serving of proats as my pwo meal. Excited for a fun Friday evening with squats. Note I am pretty tired with about 5.5 hrs of sleep only.

Nice pumps today! Saw the price plow youtube video reiterating what Adizzle1 mentioned about reformulating. I hope the reformulation just address the fluffiness and the flavour but not the focus, pumps, or energy. Those are on point. My powder has pretty much gone to sh!t haha I refrigerated the last scoop for tomorrow, but the heat in the house most likely began to start to clump it. (NO AC AT MY HOUSE) This and my radiate where the only ones affected.

I woke super sleepy and not in the mood for anything. HyperMax quickly changed that. I chugged it down with my Ergonine and I was ready to go. Actually very nice experience to end the tub today. i went hard! Obliterated the last set of every assistance workout. I know I am going to feel it bad tonight and for the next couple of days. Thanks guys for this opportunity to log.
 
Final Review

Taste: 7/10
Ultimately, I could not get over the chemical like taste. I am very tolerant, but something about this didn't go down well. Note: Use about 20oz or more of water in shaker to minimize the taste. Thankfully the product itself is extremely effective.

Mix: 7/10
No issues again. The product mixes great, but it quickly started getting fluffy meaning I had to compact the powder into the scoop in order to get the 14g serving. I am flagging this because it becomes and inconvenience to sit there and compact powder into the scoop.

Effectiveness: 9.0/10
Great pumps and performance from this see below for a breakdown:

Beta-Alanine Orotate – 3G
• I really feel that this works well considering that I believe it may have less BA since orotic acid is in combination to make a total of 3g, but the orotic acid may help to absorb better. I feel that it really helps. I have been keeping my rests short around 60 sec and I am ready to go with the same intensity

L-Ornithine L-Aspartate – 1g
• In addition to the above comment about orotic acid helping absorption, the LOLA could be working synergistically to help endurance.

L-Citrulline – 4g
• L-Citrulline has always worked for me and others. I would have preferred to seen 6g of it though to really pump me when training fasted, but the pumps are decent though.

Glycerol Powder (65%) – 2g
• I believe this does aid in hydration. I found myself today not needing as much water during exercise. Only reason I would sip on my BCAAs is because I saw my blender bottle there, but I wasn't really thirsty and I felt great through out my workout considering the taxation deadlifts have on the body.

Agmatine Sulfate – 1g
• I am not sure if this is having any effect in pump and vascularity. L-Citrulline, carbs, and hydration are the only one that I feel really works for pumps and vascularity.

Energy and Focus 1250 mg
• My general comment is that this pre-workout may have done better with less caffeine. For me I find that around 200 mg of caffeine helps in waking me up and then the focus blends psych me out for a great session. Plus, the focus blend that this formula has is great. I was in the zone today and felt great while working out. Completing reps was the only thing on my mind and my mood was elevated. The appetite suppression in the citrus aurantium extract does seems to work, but not as strong and that is okay since the pre-workout is not marketed as a "fat burner"

Overall 8/10:
The deal breaker for me was taste and product quality (as described above from the HydroMax 65% Glycerol fluffing the powder). My rating averages out to 7.7 but I gave it some brownie points for being pretty effective. This thing would wake me up from my zombie state in the mornings. Performax Labs & Price Plow have informed that they are doing a re-formulation in October (my bday cough cough).. If they can enhance the taste or rather hide the chemical taste more and improve the quality of the powder than this will surely be a more superior product in my opinion. I still enjoyed it minus the cons. I hope my review helps out.
