Price was right on that order. 2 Solid flavors. I just picked up Cotton Candy and Sour Heads (after getting a few cases the other week)
Purple Guava = top 5 for most people if not top 3. Make sure they are nice and chilled :)

Pricing pretty decent on those? From what I've seen it's about a buck fifty a can right? I'd probably be down for some if it could be had in the $1/can range. They recently started carrying it at my local health store and I believe vitamin shoppe as well. :)
 
Have 2 PES Select 4lbers on the way. $71.98 shipped with 3% cashback. Not a bad deal at all. Cant get enough of that Chocolate PB. One of my favorite proteins of all time.
 
I just got mk677, cardarine, YK11 and S23 from pure rawz, nolva and clomid from EA, M test, Epi Plex and massacre in the mail.

Log it I will

VS sells around $26 a case (over $2/Can), most gyms around $2.50-3 a can. Gas stations (Around $2 a pop).
1.50 is on a very good deal, sometimes you can get it a bit cheaper. He paid right around that when buying his cases ($17/Case or 1.40 a can)

Cool thanks for the info, I'll pick one up soon to try out.

It's the OG version but I'm very disappointed by the taste and the aftertaste, too bitter... it's like drinking Naringin. I had to mix it with 15 gr glutamine to mask this a little ; it give me great focus like ADD meds it made me "too serious" :) However anybody have a better flavor to recomand me ? Cotton Candy or an old flavor ? Thanks

We're nice people out here :)

I've been to most of the cupcake shops in my area, I'm shocked I haven't heard of this one. How did you get into contact with them? Those look incredible

Finally got me this exact flavor over the weekend since I had a $20 off coupon at the 3 letter place.

You aren't kidding.. This stuff is magical. It actually mixed up a bit thinner than I thought it would (2 scoops + 12oz almond milk), but still tasted amazing. Going to try 2 scoops + 10oz almond milk this weekend for a little more thickness.

Next up is Cereal Milk and PB Cereal Milk!

Get a Blood Glucose Monitor if you really want to log that with efficiency.
I know your moving from a massive surplus after a cycle to a cutting period where your kcals will be massively different, so it will be hard to gauge how efficient a GDA is working since your lowering calories considerably.

My feedback so far
i got it yesterday and tried 2 caps with 50g of carbs (per RecompMan)

this morning upon waking:

this was a reading after 25g of carbs and 2 caps
Invalid Link Removed

Almost HALF of my resting

Notes so far:
- Hunger has increased
- Dropped 1 pound yesterday
- I know rice/rice cakes digest very well for me, so that reading after 25g of carbs did not surprise me

Going to play around with higher GI Carbs (Cereal), and higher amounts of Rice/Rice Cakes (75g Carbs), and also with cheat meals ..... before I come to my final conclusion chedapalooza

It means a lot. I started here on AM with Follidrone 2.0, and am now going right back to it on a new journey.
And, as an ambassador to the brand it makes perfect sense. I'm mirroring my starting vigor for this great product in a private log. Day 1.

Then, maybe eventually putting VECTOR into play.

Awesome, Bob. Thanks for this. Goes to show how strong the formula is. My hunger has been thru the roof as well and I’ve been using 3 caps a day since Friday, so almost a week. Down 3 pounds (160 to 157) with no diet or training changes.... guess I gotta up my cals!

I’ve been taking 1 cap prior to my training and 2 caps prior to my fast breaking meal.

I should also add that Ive been using 2-3 scoops of Lipøshield daily as well. 1 mixed into my pre workout and 1-2 with my fast breaking meal
 
Been at over 275g carbs this whole week and I’ve lost 3lbs. I know the feeling. I’m not changing anything and I’m just hungry and dropping weight.

Just come up here and we’ll split a dozen Paula’s. That’ll surely put this to the test

Cheda what kind of impact are you seeing from it on low carb?
Click to expand...

Pumps throughout the day, better pumps and muscle contraction during workouts, will definitely go hypo within 30 minute if I take it and don’t eat when I planned on it. I don’t NEED a Glycøshield for my diet, but I use it mainly for the health benefits. For someone on Keto or a high fat diet, Lipøshield will be their all star and glyco will be a support / cheat day must have.

Also definitely leaner. I’ve lost 3 pounds and haven’t even tried. I’m going to up my calories a bit. And also test out a capsule before bed to see if there’s any mirror effects
 
Glycoshield came for me yesterday. Gonna start using it with my evening/post workout meal and pre-bed meal. Have been using glycophase daily for the last few months so I'll have a direct comparison to something I consider one of the more average on the market.
 
Thanks to Godstrength & MR Supps.com for the hook up!
Tried the thin mint. Have to say this is some of the best tasting protein I have ever tried. The chocolate is rich and mint is light, and just the right amount of sweetness for me. (I'm not a big sweetness guy). If they were shooting for the girl scout thin mint cookie they nailed it on this one!
1.5 scoops in 12oz of cold water.

I will try the stim free pre this week. (at a buck a serving) looking forward to it. less expensive than what I usually use of my own concoction I use to make.PLUS FREE SHIPPING and I get it next day. Found out I live in the same town as the warehouse.
I get to hit the DMAA on my Friday evening workouts! I use a stim free Mon.-Thur. because I have to get to bed and be a responsible adult during the week! lol

Fit Crunch Protein Powder Review


Invalid Link Removed


Taste


Vanilla Milkshake – The Vanilla milkshake is exactly what you would expect. The density and sweetness of the flavor really shines as it gives you a true vanilla flavor. Upon sipping on this flavor and mixing in Greek yogurt the boldness comes through in the aftertaste. Right away the flavor doesn’t hit you hard, but it continues to get stronger after the initial hit on your taste buds. This is not a vanilla bean like PES, but it has a much richer flavor then USP Labs. Those are two of my favorites on the market and this one is right up there with the elites!

Chocolate Deluxe – Chocolate deluxe is a mix of a milk and dark chocolate flavored protein powder. The creaminess and density of the dual chocolate flavors really shine as you sip on this as a protein shake. At first you get the dominating milk chocolate and then the dark chocolate kicks in during the aftertaste. This reminds me of Cellucor molten chocolate (dark chocolate aspect), and Metabolic Nutrition Chocolate Cake (milk chocolate aspect) merged together. If you are a chocoholic this one will be a hit for you. Chef Irvin’s Chocolate is unique with how well you can taste the different chocolate aspects and how well they compliment each other.

Strawberry – Strawberry never shined through like the vanilla and chocolate did.I was hoping the density would pull through like the other flavors, but it is light from first sip through the aftertaste. I think FitCrunch was going for a refreshing and light tasting strawberry flavor. The huge benefit of this flavor is there is no artificial taste to it. So many strawberry flavors on the market taste like chemical and are so artificial its hard to drink or utilize them. A big thumbs up for a pure tasting strawberry the flavor was just faint.

Mixability

Just like most protein blends on the market this one did mix with ease. I use a ninja blender with 8-10oz per scoop of protein powder. When blended after a few seconds the powder was totally dissolved. When the powder hit the almond milk it did start to mix. Due to how fine the powder was this did not surprise me how well it did mix.

Another one of my favorite ways to mix protein powder is in greek yogurt. I use around 5-6oz of Greek yogurt and one scoop of protein and this mixed as easy as the protein shakes. After stirring for 20-30 seconds it was totally mixed. The protein powder mixes on the thicker side similar to PES Select and Ghost Whey.

Formula

Invalid Link Removed

Per Scoop:
130-150 Calories
1.5-2-4g Fat (Van / Choc / Strawberry)
4g Carbs
24g Protein

The protein blend includes WPI, WPC, and Casein. There are added gums (Xanthan & Guar), which help provide a thicker protein. Fit Crunch Protein is also flavored with sucralose. What stood out is 2g of fiber per scoop which you do not see in a lot of protein powders! Chef Irvine kept a very simple protein matrix in his formula.

Invalid Link Removed

Cost

Cost is around $35 a Container (1.5bs). This is on the very high end for protein powders. Another company that comes to mind at this price point would be Ghost. While this is hard to find (due to being exclusive from only one retailer) it is a hard buy to justify if you are on a budget. This is a protein purchase if you have extra money lying around to try a new brand that has one of the best protein bars on the market. After trying the protein powder in multiple flavors I would highly suggest half scooping or single scooping with another vanilla whey protein to help preserve the life of the tubs. It is good, but may be hard to justify for those who opt for cost-effective whey protein in the $20-25 range.

This is exactly how I use it, although I do take one cap prior to weight sessions with aminos/pre

Looking forward to your results since we pretty much train and eat the same way
 
for those who may do low carb/Keto and wonder how Glycøshield will affect your blood sugar.. I just ate a 1650 calorie meal... see below

I get this.

Shiny toys for us BBs...

I love the pics and am tempted to buy a whole bunch more.

But, why do you guys spend so much money on brand names? Because there shiny and holographic and have cool pictures?

You can buy all the ingredients separately for cheaper.

Or buy the same thing from a off brand company for cheaper.

Why the attraction?

Convenience.

My time is worth more than mixing everything together separately. I even have access to FREE product that I use in preworkout supps but having something pre made is just easier and tastes better.

Same goes for GDA supps. I have all of them in bulk but it because a huge pain in the ass taking 4 pills and powder

You can buy the same "proprietary blends" in cheaper brands. There definitely out there... They don't have shiny labels though lol
