Ok, well first off let me say I have always been a fan of MAN since I first tried Bodyoctane over a year ago. Even knowing Canadian Customs would confiscate BO because it contains L-Carnitine I heard great reviews and I had to give it a go. Lucky for me Customs did not find it. Since this is not a review in BO, I won?t get into any detail other than I loved it and order it again.

Thank you, MAN Sports for letting me participate in the MAN Challenge 2008 contest. I was extremely honored to have been chosen.

As I said I have always like MAN, however their prices are what kept me from trying out the entire MAN line. But with money out of the question for this log (it was sponsored) I was able to give a great MAN stack a go.

Primal Male, Blue Print, Orotine.

It is hard to determine which product did what or it was a synergy from two or all three supps, but I will try to break it down the best I can.

Primal Male, this was by far my favorite of the stack. From about 4-6 days into it noticed some acne on my face and back which stayed for about two weeks then cleared up pretty well stayed under control for the rest of the three months. I have noticed better deeper sleeps since day one and as one would expect with deeper sleep more energy during the day. Muscle pumps were definitely up as well as muscle fullness. I found I looked much fuller through out the day, as well as having much harder muscles all around. Most days I had a great sense of well being and just wanted to tear through the gym. However once it got to exam time, I seemed to have lost some of that drive.

Stamina in the gym seemed to increase, I had to cut down my normal workout time of roughly 90 mins to about 60 because I decided to workout before school. With the help of Pete Ciccone we managed to figure if I really pushed myself and took very little rests I could do it. This is a very taxing workout and I definitely noticed an increase in stamina with PM and BP.

Intensity in the gym was also a great plus from this stack. As stated above, I really cut down the rest period in between sets. I was able to really give it my all for each and every set.

I didn?t do much cardio except for playing roller hockey and doing some sprints in the park once a week therefore I can?t give very insightful comments on the effect this stack has on cardio. I can say however that during my sprints I seemed to be able to recover quicker. I normally sprint 100m walk back and immediately sprint again for a total of five sets. I am still fairly out of breath but I just push through it, but now I?m quite ready to go again, not shortness of breath on the next set. Now I know that is just a natural effect of continually training will give you so I can not give all the credit to the MAN stack.

Orotine is a great creatine product with Orotic Acid. I did not get any bloating or undesirable side effects. I have been on Beta Alanine for many weeks prior to starting this log and I feel that my carnosine levels had already maxed out therefore the Orotic Acid was just helping maintain my muscle carnosine concentrations.





Strength 9/10
Stamina 9/10
Muscle Fullness 8.5/10
Vascularity 8/10
Pump 7.5/10
Price-Primal Male- A decent price for a product that works. 9/10
-Blue Print- A tad expensive for me seeing you only get 20 days out of a bottle. 5/10
- Orotine- 8/10
