Beastly battles with BETA-CRET!

[THEMANBEAST]

Jordansrt is now a Promera rep, and me and him still keep in contact from when we were both reps for a supplement company. A few weeks ago he asked me if I wanted to try BETA-CRET, a new product from Promera. I jumped at the chance to try. It's Pineapple flavored, one serving size is 1 scoop around 4 grams.

Training Style
Lately, I have been using a low number of sets per bodypart. The weight I try to use is moderate, but I try to get a high number of reps. I workout at home, so using heavy weights all the time is not really an option. Especially with the limited amount of space that I have to work with.

I lift only 3-4 days per week. It's all that is needed in my opinion, so that's all I do.

BETA-CRET marks the first pre-workout supplement I have used in months, so all effects will be ourely BETA-CRET.

First Workout: Saturday March 19, 2011 (7:30 PM)
Seated dumbbell shoulder presses: (weight used was 55 lb dumbbells)
1 x 19
1 x 4
1 x 12
1 x 8

EZ Bar upright Rows: (weight was 100 lbs)
1 x 10

Alternate dumbbell curls: (weight was 55 lb dumbbells)
1 x 6

Product Rating: (2 scoops in 12 oz of water)
Strength: 10/10-Even though I used moderate weight, my first set reps were high, and I felt strong.

Endurance: 8/10- my workouts are short but If I needed to, I could have gone farther.

Recovery: 9/10- No soreness the next day.

Taste: 8/10 I used too much water. I will use 8-10 ounces next workout.

I would like to put bigger numbers too.
But moderate weight and high reps is a comprimise I have to make (for now)

Thanks buddy. Traps are a muscle I focused on early in lifting. Admired Lesnar, Batista, etc..

I don't think I mentioned that Jordan sent a cool CON-CRET shirt as well.

Just how I like it. There is a point of diminishing returns. I tried the route of high volume but got nowhere.

[THEMANBEAST]

No lifting for today. I will hopefully resume tomorrow night with shoulders.

Fourth Workout: Sunday March 27, 2011 (7:15 PM)
BETA-CRET was taken 10 minutes before my first set.

Seated dumbbell shoulder presses: (weight used was 55 lb dumbbells)
1 x 19
1 x 8
1 x 5

Failed to lift 75 lbers into position....

Dumbbell shrugs: (Weight used was 75 lb dumbbells)(the limit weight for my dumbbells )
1 x 30
1 x 20

Product Rating: (2 scoops in 8 oz of water)
Strength: 10/10-Felt great.

Endurance: 8/10- my workouts are short but If I needed to, I could have gone farther.

Recovery: 9/10- No soreness the next day.

Taste: 9/10 I chuged it but I do like the Pineapple-ness.

Thoughts so far:
BETA-CRET gives me great energy and focus. 2 scoops seems to be the perfect amount for me. I also like the simplicity of the ingrediants. It tastes good, and the pineapple flavoring is very unique. When it releases I would like to buy the Blue Raz version.(Blue raz supps are generally my favorite flavoring)

[RyouBakua]

nice presses and shrugs


i think you would like the blue raz flavouring
