1st Day of Animal Pump- My review

I began working out seriously last year. I started taking Protein, Creatine and weight gainer and I made great gains. However I stopped working out when my son was born in August and I pretty much lost all the muscle I gained. Anyway I recently decided that I'm ready to start back. I set up my deit and workout routine I was looking for something extra that would help me with my gains.
I decided to try out Animal Pump after reading so much positive about it. Last night was Day one of my return to bodybuilding and the 1st day i used Animal Pump. I know that I've heard that it may take up to a week before you really start feeling but let me tell you, that sh*t started working a little bit after I started taking it. I was real skeptical because I'm really not sensitive to a lot of stimulants but it was undeniable that this thing really does work.
I ate at about 5:15pm and took it at 7pm. The first thing I noticed while I was waiting the suggested 30 minutes before I work out was that about 15 minutes in I started feel more focused and alert. I didn't feel like I all of a sudden I was superman but I felt real "ready" to go lift them weights.
The workout itself? Well it was a damn good workout. I think that the Animal Pump helped me to get out that extra rep when I may have normally have been stuck half way.
However all that isn't even the greatest thing about AP. I read someone else's review of it that said "It was like I had to force myself to leave the gym" and now I really understand what he was saying. No matter how many sets I did I felt like I still had more in me. Like I could of done another and another. At no point did I feel exhausted or tired. Now when I say this I'm not saying that I was able to do the same amount of weight and reps throughout the whole workout. At the end of my (chest/triceps) workout when I was planning on doing a couple sets of diamond push ups to failure I was only able do about 7-8 (normally I can do about 80 or so). So what I think happened is that my muscles were exhausted but I just didn't feel it. I still felt strong and because of that I was able to push myself to do more and more.
And had I no problem sleeping but caffeine normally doesn't have any effect on me.

All in all this is a great product and that I'd recommend to everyone looking to make gains. The way i see it is if it was so good on the 1st day I want to see what it can really do once the creatine and everything is fully in my system.
