All,
my sincerest apologies for a two week delay in getting up my final review. Since accepting the job offer and getting back to work, my days have finally - I dare say - become normal again. To walk around daily and doing nothing but waiting, and having no work schedule whatsoever, to the point where the highlight of my days were my 1-2-3 gym sessions a day (it got crazy at times) got me to the brink of lunacy. But I'm back in the work force, in a dream position where 100% of my effort will go towards. I'll continue working out 5-6-7x a week, but my primary focus will naturally be the new job, and getting into the rhythm of things. I actually just returned from a two day out of town trip for training and orientation an hour ago, and will return to the gym as soon as I've cooked up some mean red meat.
To Chuck and your team,
I sincerely appreciate the faith you put in me, choosing me as a logger for your incredible Dieselade stack! I hope that in spite of a two week lag in getting this log finalized, I haven't lost your respect. I did my utmost to satisfy the log requirements throughout the product cycle itself, but as I mentioned, the past two weeks when I got back to work, I haven't been able to follow up as expected.
I did not do the show on March 13th, though I am a bit disappointed in myself for opting out of it. It was a combination of things, but mainly due to my new position. I didn't want to kickstart my new job walking around depleted, dehydrated, out-of-the-zone from zero carbs, nor did I want to walk around the office with a severely dark/orange tint to my skin. I consider it a professional courtesy, if anything, to opt out. The faith that has been placed in me in this new role is something I don't take for granted, and I want to show them that my focus is one place, and one place only now that I embark on this new adventure, and my new career for the next 30+ years. When I get into the rhythm of things, get some deals concluded, and otherwise earn my way in the new office, I'll revisit the opportunity of competing again, but for now, it's on the back burner.
Dieselade Stack Final Review:
DTHC - Diesel Test Hard Core - 4/5 overall
Strength/Stamina - 5/5 - with the kind of high intensity, high rep program I ran, I will without a doubt give this product a 5/5 (100%) top rating when it comes to Strength and Stamina in the gym. Strength increased by 10-30 lbs. on numerous exercises, and this includes bench press, shoulder press, squats, you know, all the basic, core exercises. Reps increased, also, up to 5+ reps more per exercise with the same weight I used prior. I felt 'Alpha' in the gym and for a few hours after, but not around the clock. I did have a lot of awesome workouts on it, though. Keep in mind that parts of the credit in the Strength and Stamina department will definitely be given to the Dieselade BCAAs, also, as I 'felt' a difference with it compared to other BCAA products.
Sex Drive - 1/5 - again, as mentioned before, in spite of stacking this product with Sunami, there was zero effect in the libido/sex drive department. It was disappointing to be sure.. I said before that my body was under an unbelievable amount of pressure both from extreme dieting and training, but also from mental anguish relating to uncertainty with employment. This could've played a factor, though there's no way to say for sure. I feel it's important to note that I have tried very few OTC supplements that have actually yielded sexual boosting effects.
Value - 3.5/5 - I know, it may sound ridiculous to not give this a full 5/5 rating given my Strength/Stamina rating, but average cost of 80 tabs of DTHC is $38+, and if ran at suggested dose per the bottle (4-5 caps/day), that's $70+/month. I personally don't understand why another recommended method of taking this all natural test booster is 5 on/2 off, as ideally with hormones, you'd like them to remain equal and steady throughout, without any fluctuation.
Sunami: 1/5 - Sorry, but I can't vouch for any effect whatsoever from this product. No increase loads, increased sex drive, libido, or similar. I was hoping it'd improve as the weeks went by, but I unfortunately had no effects from this product, or rather, I had no effects as expected per the advertisement of this product.
Dieselade - 5/5 - My #1 favorite BCAA product, period. I'll be ordering a bottle with my first pay check. Tastes delicious, energy and stamina was pronounced through zero/low carb period of high-intensity training, and I enjoyed every single scoop of it!
Again, thank you, Chuck, for letting me give this a run for the money. I very much appreciate the opportunity. Allow me to refer back to the 4 separate weekly updates I added on each of the products should this conclusion be a little 'light' for the lack of a better word.
Cheers!!
