Last workout of the log:
Flying pushups/Bosu pushup set:
15/15, 13/10, 10/8 80 sec rest
--right off the bat, arms and chest got so swollen and engorged that I couldn't do more reps. Not fatigue or muscle exhaustion, but it became very difficult to bend and move!
Hex bar rows:
225/10,9,8,8,7
--heaviest weight and reps for this exercise yet
Hammer bench:
270/6, 360/5, 360/3, 320,5
Roc-it lat pulldowns:
230/12,11,10
The pic in the previous post was after my workout. Taking a self-pic like that doesn't do justice to the fullness and wideness of my torso after today. Prominent long veins in the biceps and forearms.
Final review will be posted in the second post in this thread. Thanks to I-Force for making great products and allowing me to log Hemavol and Compete for them!
BTW: there is a current special where the two are on sale for a VERY low price. This log was probably their way of showing people what to expect using the two. Google is your friend.

Here ya go though:
Final review:
AWESOME products both on their own and used together.
Here's what I was asked to comment on:
--pumps:
Insane. Be sure to properly hydrate and the GMS in Hemavol will work its wonders. One pump is good, I've used 1.5 and 2 throughout the log. 1.5 scoops Hemavol and 2 scoops Compete would run out at close to the same time.
--endurance:
Was able to punish myself for grueling sessions of High-Low/Front-Back training, and even for extended traditional sessions of upper-only, legs-only, or total body. Never felt like I couldn't do what I wanted to do in the gym. Only disappointing workouts I had were due to fatigue/stress from my job; nothing that can be blamed on the products.
--rest between sets:
Most workouts were kept to 40 seconds between sets for arm workouts, 60-80 for chest/back, 80-120 sec for high volume/weight leg exercises. Heart rate was still elevated at these intervals, but some longer rest periods were necessary due to the blood pump in the exercised areas.
--flavor:
Watermelon Hemavol>Lemon. I've used both before and the lemon actually gave me headaches. Watermelon is better by default, but could be a tad stronger.
Tangerine Compete = THE BEST TASTING SUPP EVER.
--recovery:
Probably could have worked out 4/5 times a week or more consecutive days, but the punishment I put myself through demanded some rest. Did do cardio on off days, so even after a leg day previous, still was able to hit the elliptical.
--DOMs:
NEVER FELT THEM. I don't know how this could be; I pushed myself as hard as I ever did, and I can't figure what exactly in either formula reduced DOMs to the point of non-existence.
BOTTOM LINE:
If you have the means, run this stack. It is versatile and effective. Hemavol especially is good on its own and also stacks well with other formulas if you're so inclined. Compete is just awesome; intra, pre, post, in a water jug throughout the day: this needs to be in you!

Hemavol is pretty good for aesthetics too! Good to see your arms or chest blow up; makes you wanna hit the gym even harder next time.
Thanks for the kind words! I'm sure I-Force appreciate them also.
