Hey guys, I am really considering getting Drive, it has gotten a lot of good reviews but i have some questions for those who have taken it or are taking it right now. Are there any side effects and also does it really give you a boost of energy with no crash. Also were the gains good, ill be taking this with green bulge so i am really excited about trying this out.

Thanks
 
hey!

Im currently on Drive right now. I was given Drive by AN to log and this is what I noticed.
-Increased Pumps
-Increased Strength (5-10 Pounds on certian lifts)
-Slight Increase in Endurance
-Increased in Libido (Sex Drive)
Sooo Yeah those are all the benefits. As far as side effects, I notice a little stomach discomfort and some gas. Thats pretty much it as far as sides. Also the good thing bout drive is that it's not a stimulant. I take it in the morning, wait an hour and feel the same as I do before. Im not a big fan of stimulants as it makes my heart race like crazy. When you hit the gym though, and you start lifting you'll notice the benefits. It's pretty cool. 6 caps per day is the magic number for me and for most people. On day 8-9 you should start to feel the effects. Until then you wont feel anything so stock up on a bottle or two.
 
Its not exactly conventional "more energy" like caffeine or other stims give you. I got a bit more endurance, a bit faster recovery, and a bit extra strength. No crash, till you stop taking it :) even then its a fade off over a few days. Great stuff for sure
 
Just a little more poop than normal, possible abdominal discomfort for the first few days

other than that....

-NO energy boost
-better endurance
-increased libido
-great strength gains
-great pumps
 
okay I just got some in the mail, haven't gotten around to trying them yet, but I am liking the caps!!! I can't believe how pretty they are.. sparkly blue omg I could take these out to the next party....

:p jk of course :lol:
 
I stack it with Rpm and the results are awesome!
*Increased Stength
*Increased Endurance
*Overall mood improvement
*Monster Boners
*Great intensity at the gym and out
If you stack them you will not be disappointed

lol the boner part :toofunny:
i already tried rpm and it made me cramp like none other and made me feel very nauseous, im stacking it with green bulge though
 
Is This Overkill?

Would these 4 stacked together be overkill?

RPM
Drive
Leviathin
DCP

I wanna spend some money, can you tell? :bb:

I'm using that exact stack plus AP/P-slin now, and it is VERY impressive. I actually just finished Leviathan and added Napalm to Drive/RPM/DCP. I figure that the Napalm/Drive can help release the fat and the DCP will burn it up. All this while the anabolic properties of Drive and RPM, AP and P-slin will help keep (possibly build) muscle. Just keeping all my bases covered.
 
Drive is a great supplement for a recomp because the Naringin lowers the GI of carbs (like grapefruit does) and the Forslean helps on the LBM:BF ratio. Throw the adaptogenic effect of Cordyceps and the test enhancing effect of Dodder and Icariin and you have a hell of a supplement.
 
like asianbabe said. Leviathan has about 75 mg of caffeine per capsule so in 1 day assuming your on 4 caps, thats 300mg of caffeine. Stacking with RPM which probably has like 100 maybe per capsule is probably not a good idea. If your aiming to get lean and cut up, Drive and RPM already serves that purpose. Although it's main function is not for fat burning, Ive noticed some remarkable leaning out effect on a bulk. Take out leviathan and use it once you run out of RPM, stacking it would just be pointless. It's a waste of money and it's quite dangerous if you ask me. I tried an experiement of overdosing on stim, it makes your heart pump like crazy, hot like crazy, drops your libido and makes you sluggish at the same time. Not a very anabolic environment if you ask me.

This is why I come here. I appreciate the honesty and non- flaming environment here!
 
Cellar, I'd bet the RPM has way less than 100mg caffeine per cap. I'd bet less than 50mg. Don't forget the naringininennenen (lol) amplifies and prolongs the effects of the caffeine.
 
What do you guys/girls do to alleviate/avoid the stomach discomfort while taking Drive? The Forslean is the cause of this correct?

Adjust the dosage slowly upward- some people have trouble getting used to higher dosages of forskolin, at least at first....

and keeping a fairly clean diet also helps- any issues I have ever had with Drive had to do with eating too much saturated fat or sugar :(
 
Also...if you are stacking RPM and Drive, it helps to stagger your dose of the two. 3Drive +2 RPM at the same time = :dump: ,for me at least. I started to do 3 Drive an 1:10 min out from my workout and my RPM about 45 min out. About 30 min out take my Neovar, then 15 min out have my pre-wo meal. Complicated...yes. GI distress...no.
 
Yeah, I got more distress from RPM than drive, its the whole taking on an empty stomach and giving it a full hour before eating then rushing to the gym thing. works out half the time really well, I feel like (and take a ) crap the other half of the time.
 
Thanx for the tips guys. If your stomach could handle it would you ever recommend taking it with meals, mostly carb based. Or would this affect the absorption let alone the stomach discomfort as well? Reason I ask this is I workout in the mornings. Only have so much time to wake up, eat, digest, workout.
 
Thats my problem too. I wake up at 530ish, start taking pills, reading emails, etc and try to start breakfast by 630 and be out of the house withing 15-20 minutes after.
 
best thing if your timing is like that is to do it close to what I have timewise, and make drive one of the first caps you put down. the more time on empty stomach, the better absorption

yea when i tried rpm it really gave me discomfort, almost nauseous. Hopefully drive wont do the same to me
 
No, drive isn't half as rough. part of it is the caffeine, that just adds to it enough to make the timing more important in terms of how your stomach feels. if I hit it eating within 40-55 minutes after I took the rpm, i'm fine and get great energy. eat earlier and I get less energy, eat later and i'm visiting the toilet

so it's pretty much timing that decides whether you feel good or bad

come to think of it, the stomach discomfort has diminished for the most part, but I still get gas. I still get GI discomfort, but it is slightly better than when I first started.
 
Today im adding Mass FX to my cycle so that bring me to:
Rpm-Once a day pre workout
Drive-2x a day once in the morning once at pre workout
Restore by ALRI- 3x a day
Mass FX-4x a day
Im hoping to get some awesome results with this stack

Hey Liv....you truly are a supplement junkie aren't ya? LOL....:D. I swear your doing a new log of something different every month. BTW...its me smssambear19 from bb.com...:wave:. Gotta give ya some ****. Of course you had to be the typical female and say the caps are pretty and you want to use them just because of the color...:rofl:. Oh yeah I will say this much about Drive, if you haven't found out already....it kicks ass!

Neither RPM nor Drive bother me in any way, with food or without.

I guess it's just certian peoples tolerance to forkslean. Ive noticed diminishing effects with the stomach problems. Ive also bumped my dosage down to 4 caps per day to save the caps. :cheers:
 
forslean can definitely cause toilet issues if you dont give some time for your body to adapt and slowly ramp it up, but i'm less sure about stomach problems. really just seen repeated toilet trips
 
haha guys, well atleast i know everyone loves the look of them...also how much are you eating everyday, im taking in around 3800 calories, and 280 grams of protein. I dont know about fat intake but is this a good meal plan with drive
 
DRIVE is working great for me. I'm currently taking 8 caps a day split in two doses and its really making noticable increases. Take a look at my log: Invalid Link Removed

eat clean. I noticed the dropping of body fat while eatting the same calories I was before or more but clean. Make sure the fat content is controlled and try complex carbs. Hope that helps

Much Love,

Cellardude

It's hard to declare that good or not, as we know nothing of your metabolism, etc that would have bearing on the situation. Best results seem to be among people eating at or above maintenace.

how are you handling pslin together with dcp - both known to cause certain gas and bowel issues for some?
