Isatori was kind enough to send me seven sample of their Pre-workout! Awesome product thus far!
I took one serving of PWR and it was fantastic! I took it 45 minutes prior to going to the gym and that was the perfect amount of time. I had a nice focused feeling with no crash whatsoever AND I hit a squat PR . It was weird though, I didn't feel fatigued after my lift yet I increased all of my weight by at least 5-10lbs on every single lift! I will say that I was drenched in sweat but the recovery time between sets was quite rapid!

Today was Back and Shoulders Hypertrophy. I woke up with an extremely tight and inflamed lower back. Almost to the point of pain. Today was my 3 rep deadlift day also so I really wanted to him my numbers but my lower back was holding me back. I think I'm going to take the next week or two off from any form of deadlift, I don't want ANY injuries.
I woke up at 6am to lift and downed my Isatori PWR and was wide awake and alert within minutes and had an excellent workout completed by 8am This stuff is awesome.

I believe today was my last day of the PWR trial. I want to give a huge thanks to Isatori and Sean26607 for hooking me up with a FANTASTIC Preworkout Supplement!
Review:
Mixability: Isatori's PWR mixed amazingly. Few swirls of the shaker bottle and you're good to go. No chunks or clumps, just a smooth mix all the way down
10/10
Taste: PWR didn't taste bad by any means, but it also didn't taste amazing like C4. I had blue raspberry but it didn't really taste like blue raspberry. Regardless, I still really liked the taste. I'd compare it with Dr.Pepper, not in taste but by how the taste was indistinguishable somewhat.
9/10
Effectiveness: I felt extremely focused during all my workouts when I took this product. It also seemed to greatly help my recovery between sets as well. I beasted out many high volume workouts in under an hour with this amazing product. I'd say it's much better than Jack3d as Jack3d does nothing for me whatsoever.
10/10
Overall: 10 + 9 + 10= 29/30 = 9.67!
Thanks again for this awesome opportunity! I'd like to apologize for the initial confusion. It slipped my mind that I needed to log this product when it came in the mail. Fortunately I didn't use any of the samples until Sean276607 politely confronted me about my missing log. I hope I can work with Isatori in the future, as the PWR was one of the best I've ever taken.I fall off the lifting wagon all the time but I'm still here lol
