...INTENSITY...INSANITY...WATCH ME GROOW!!! - NaturalPursuit's Offseason Journey

[NaturalPursuit]

Podcast is honestly identical to what Borge says in the Biorythm diet, very similar findings and feedback. Good stuff.

Funny how much of the same information just gets continually repeated but masked under a different name. Either way great material and proving to be quite effective!

Evogen Cell K.E.M. Review
After 2 Servings of Logging



About the Product
“I designed Cell K.E.M. to maximize hardness and fullness by providing the most potent anabolic building blocks for maximum muscle growth, and maximum delivery of these powerful agents directly into the muscle cells, using the most cutting edge non-carbohydrate, nutrient-driving and cellular expanding agents available.” - Hany Rambod

How Does Cell K.E.M. differ from EVP?
If you’re familiar with my training and nutritional philosophy, or if you’ve ever read any of the literally hundreds of articles I’ve published in the various industry magazines, you understand that the primary tenet of my philosophy of muscle building is solidly based on the concept that maximum anabolism means maximizing blood flow. Every facet of my nutritional protocol, the FST-7 training program and now, with Evogen Nutrition, every component of an athlete’s regimen is specifically manipulated to maximize the flow of nutrient-rich, growth- and performance-fueling blood into the muscles. This being said, both EVP and now Cell K.E.M. have been formulated with several key ingredients to maximize cellular volumization, support vasodilation, and to optimize cell-enriching blood and nutrient delivery.

You may have noticed that both Cell K.E.M. and EVP contain several similar ingredients. This is because both products are formulated to maximize bloodflow to feed anabolism. Here are the primary differences:

EVP, the Elite Pre-workout Solution, is designed to deliver immediate muscle pump and an anabolic “spike”, with FUSIL®*, available exclusively from Evogen Nutrition.
EVP also contains performance boosting nootropics to help sharpen mental focus for the most-intense training sessions you’ve ever experienced, without the use of pump-killing adrenal stimulants.
Cell K.E.M. is designed to work in synergy with EVP, supporting maximum hardness, fullness and recovery by providing sustained, growth-enhancing pump and volumization, along with the potent growth-triggering 4:1:1 ratio of fermented, pharmaceutical grade BCAAs. Only Cell K.E.M. contains FUSIL® in this ultra-high quality of ingredients in this aggressive anabolic ratio.

Whereas EVP contains nootropics that are useful for the pre- and intra-workout performance boosting, Cell K.E.M. utilizes multiple NO-stimulating agents in its Osmotic Expansion Matrix. Along with anti-oxidants, free-radical scavengers and cellular detoxifiers which protect against cellular trauma and facilitate recovery, Cell K.E.M. contains additional NO support agents in its Recovery Augmenting / Anti-Catabolic Complex that also serves to intensify volumization and expansion by further supporting NO production.

With the powerful lock and key synergy created between the dramatic and immediate volumizing effects of the pre-workout anabolic catalyst, EVP, and the powerful cellular expansion and nutrient driving effects of Cell K.E.M., both with pharmaceutical grade amino acids including FUSIL®, in specific ratios designed to trigger immediate and ongoing anabolism. There is no product or combination of products that can compare to the muscle-maximizing effects of EVP and Cell K.E.M."

Unlock Your Maximum Growth Potential!

High-intensity training sets off a cascade of internal bio-chemical events that can lead to catabolic consequences-muscle cell damage. But, it is exactly the traumatic impact of hard training that triggers the body’s mechanisms for growth and repair. With proper nutritional support, potential cellular breakdown can become the catalyst for new muscle growth. Cell K.E.M. delivers the key nutrient building blocks needed to maximize this adaptive, anabolic response.

What is Cell K.E.M.?
Cell K.E.M. is Evogen Nutrition’s Elite Mass & Recovery Catalyst. Cell K.E.M. is a precisely formulated, high-performance nutrition supplement designed to address the key factors that impact muscle growth and recovery following high-intensity training. As with all Evogen Nutrition products, Cell K.E.M. contains ingredients of the highest potency, highest purity and solubility for maximum impact and effectiveness.

What Does Cell K.E.M. Do?
Cell K.E.M. meticulously combines key muscle-building agents in precise ratios that have been proven to synergistically:

Maximize blood flow, cellular expansion and volumization
Trigger anabolism
Promote new cell growth by providing the building blocks for cellular reconstruction
Clear the pathway for anabolism by neutralizing the oxidative stress that results from high-intensity training
How Does Cell K.E.M. Work?

Cell K.E.M. is a synergistic blend of performance-enhancing agents, each carefully selected to maximize the body’s anabolic response to training.

1. 4:1:1 Growth Acceleration Complex:
Pharmaceutical Grade, Fermented, Ultra-Soluble BCAA complex: Leucine (FUSIL™), Isoleucine, Valine - 4:1:1 anabolic ratio
Recent research has demonstrated the potent impact of Leucine as the ”anabolic catalyst” because of its direct role in stimulating protein synthesis by activating the anabolic pathway, mTOR. Leucine stimulates the internal cascade of events that ultimately result in greater muscle acquisition. In combination with the other two branched-chain amino acids (BCAA’s) isoleucine and valine, Leucine has been shown to trigger anabolism and speed recuperation especially during times of stress such as during intense training. BCAA supplementation also plays a role in stimulating the powerful anabolic hormones, testosterone, insulin and growth hormone. Only Cell K.E.M. combines FUSIL™* and pharmaceutical grade isoleucine and valine, in the 4:1:1 anabolic ratio designed to maximize the anabolic impact of FUSIL. No other formula can match this. *FUSIL™ is pharmaceutical Grade, Fermented, Ultra-Soluble

2. Recovery Augmenting/Anti-Catabolic/Anti-Oxidant Complex:
Cell K.E.M. contains several key nutrients proven to enhance recovery, bolster the immune system and scavenge cell-damaging metabolic waste products. Pharmaceutical grade glutamine and L-Glutamine AKG are key immuno-support, anti-catabolic and recovery augmenting agents of the highest purity and potency. This specific detoxifying matrix is designed to relieve systemic metabolic load to facilitate rapid and maximal recovery from the potential cellular trauma caused by the rigors of hard-training and restrictive contest dieting. The nutrient base of Cell K.E.M is also fortified with Resveratrol, which has demonstrated anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, immuno-protective and cardio-protective effects in multiple studies.

3. Osmotic Expansion/ATP-Enhancing Complex:
One of Cell K.E.M.’s unique properties is it’s volumizing capability. Like it’s lock-and-key counterpart, EVP, the Elite Pre-Workout Solution, Cell K.E.M.’s ultra-soluble formula contains powerful cytoplasmic expansion agents and nutrient drivers including creatine gluconate, L-Norvaline, arginine AKG and Resveratrol, designed to hyper-load muscle cells with growth- and recovery-enhancing nutrients. Cell K.E.M.’s unique cellular expansion properties maximize muscle volume and nutrient delivery at the most critical time – immediately post-workout. Cell K.E.M.’s proven ATP regenerating components, including citrulline malate and creatine gluconate, support the Kreb’s cycle and replenish cellular energy substrates to refuel muscle contraction, to allow athletes to return to the gym, the field or the training mat quicker.

4. Electrolyte Infusion/Hyper-Hydration Complex:
Hydration and electrolyte balance are critical to optimal cellular function. Intense training can deplete cells of vital hydration, and disrupt electrolyte balance, further complicating cellular function, including the mechanisms of muscle contraction, energy regeneration and nutrient delivery. Cell K.E.M.’s Electrolyte Infusion/Hyper-Hydration Complex provides a functionally balanced electrolyte solution to optimize muscle cell function and health, support contractility, fluid balance and prevent contractility.



Evogen Stack Recommended Dosing


My Dosage
Postworkout: 2 servings (entire sample packet) mixed with 12 oz cold water. Be sure NOT TO EAT YOUR TYPICALLY POSTWORKOUT MEAL UNTIL 30 MINS AFTER INGESTING CELL K.E.M.

Taste 10/10
Evogen Nutrition is INSANE with their flavoring! This Pineapple Guava tasted INCREDIBLE! I love Evogen's fruity profile of flavors! Honestly wanted to keep drinking this all day!

Mixability 10/10
A LOT better mixability than EVP Plus! No foam at (unlike its counterpart), and had ZERO residue at the bottom!

Formula and Ingredients 8/10
Read the top of this review to understand how the blend. Really has a lot of good qualities too it but again, prop blend, so it needs to be field tested!

Effectiveness NA/10
This product is marketed as a postworkout recovery and growth product but the only problem is, I cannot give a TRUE opinion on its effectiveness as I have only sampled it for one day. Any products like this need to be thoroughly reviewed throughout an entire tub before you can give an accurate effectiveness review.

Overall 8/10
Flavor and mixability were AMAZING!! I would however like to get a tub of this product to check the validity of the claims and its true effectiveness. I WOULD recommend simply based on the flavor. I do not like doing 1 serving reviews however because it does not paint a completely accurate picture however this product truly does spark my interest! Thanks to SeanFxxx, Evogen Nutrition Rep, for sending me out a great goodie box with TONS of Evogen product!

Current Supplement Logs
TSN Stack
Super Greens & Reds - Energy, Vitality, Detox
Dosage: 4 Veggie Caps first thing in the AM
Taste/Digestion: 9/10 - Noticed a slight aroma that slightly affected taste but not too noticeable.
Effectiveness: NA/10

Vita-T - Men's Multi-Vitamin with Testosterone and Prostate Support
Dosage: 3 Veggie Caps first thing in the AM
Taste/Digestion: 10/10 - No bad pill taste and digested perfectly!
Effectiveness: NA/10

Probiotic Weight Loss - Pre and Probiotic
Dosage: 2 Veggie Caps first thing in the AM
Taste/Digestion: 10/10 - No bad pill taste and digested perfectly!
Effectiveness: NA/10

Total Effectiveness of TSN Stack: Well, after only 3 days of logging I have noticed a slight increase in my energy output throughout the day (the same type of change I noticed when I initially began taking a greens supplement first thing in the AM.) Extremely surprised to already see an increase from only 3 days of logging this products! I knew that the stack all together was, IMHO, better than OT+Greens or Machine Greens (simply because of the overall combination of ingredients) and I am glad to see it is effecting me positively!

Evogen EVP Plus (Peach Mango) - Energy/Pump - Preworkout
Dosage: 1 sample packet (2 servings) mixed in 14 oz water
Taste: 10/10 - MMM!!!!
Mixability: 8/10 - Less foam than usual but still there
Effectiveness: 9/10 - UPPER BODY PUMP AND OVERALL ENERGY OF PEACE!!!
Water to Scoop Ratio for Best Flavor:
*Per 1 serving
4 oz = Extremely strong and almost unbearable to drink
5 oz = Slight better than 4 oz but still a little to overpowering to enjoy
6 oz = PERFECT for the best peach candy flavor!!!!

BPI Best BCAA (Watermelon) - Recovery/Muscle Growth - Intraworkout
Dosage: 1 sample packet (1 serving) mixed in 8 oz cold water
Taste: 3/10 - For as much as I liked the flavor of 1 M.R. Vortex, I did not enjoy this flavor in the least. Tasted exactly like a Hall's Watermelon cough drop and was not a good flavor to have in your mouth intraworkout.
Mixability: 10/10 - Mixed fine and there was no residue or foam without using a blender cube so thats good!
Effectiveness: NA/10 Was only able to test this product out for 1 day so the claims of the product cannot be fully evaluated, especially when there is a prop blend for BCAA's which, IMHO, is not necessary.

RSP Nutrition BCAA Capsules - BCAA - Between Meals 2x per day
Dosage: 7 pills, 2x per day
Form: Capsule
After Taste and Aroma: 10/10 - No aftertaste that some pills have. Makes it easy to swallow!
Digestive Tolerance: 10/10 - Didn't hurt or bother my stomach in the least!
Effectiveness: 9/10 - Recovering FASTER than I anticipated! I know for sure my diet, SMR, etc all play contributing factors but supplementation of this product has increased my overall recovery capabilities!

BPI's Best BCAAs Watermelon Review
After 1 Seving/1 Sample Packet



About the Product
WHAT IS BEST BCAA?
BPI Sports' BEST BCAA™ is not your typical outdated, run-of-the-mill, same as everyone else, outdated BCAA product. Not even close. This formula is the first to bond the three branched chain amino acids - leucine, isoleucine and valine - utilizing a proprietary process route, to form oligopeptides (a bonded chain of amino acids; for example, a peptide linked chain). The oligopeptide-based branched chain amino acids may act as a better transport vehicle, which may alow for more efficient metabolization, greater bio-activity, enhanced onset time, and a generally improved BCAA model. And, the scientific minds at BPI Sports didn't stop here...*†

WHY IT MAY BE BETTER?
BPI Sports' BEST BCAA™ is not your typical outdated, run-of-the-mill, same as everyone else, outdated BCAA product. Not even close. This formula is the first to bond the three branched chain amino acids - leucine, isoleucine and valine - utilizing a proprietary process route, to form oligopeptides (a bonded chain of amino acids; for example, a peptide linked chain). The oligopeptide-based branched chain amino acids may act as a better transport vehicle, which may alow for more efficient metabolization, greater bio-activity, enhanced onset time, and a generally improved BCAA model. And, the scientific minds at BPI Sports didn't stop here...*†

WHAT ARE THE POTENTIAL BENEFITS?
As discussed, taking branched chain amino acids in oligopeptide form, coupled in bio-active Oligopeptide-Enzymatic Technology, may be the best way to overcome the typical metabolization and utilization limitations and realize the full promise - including:

MAY EXPERIENCE:
MUSCLE PROTEIN SYNTHESIS*†
DECREASED PROTEIN CATABOLISM*†
INCREASED INSULIN SENSITIVITY*†
ENDOGENOUS GLUCOSE PRODUCTION*†
ENHANCED RECOVERY
FROM EXERCISE*†

Key Features Include:


What I Expect
Well after logging 1 M.R. Vortex and really enjoying it I am looking forward to trying their BCAAs! I will be paying particular attention to:
-flavor
-mixability
-ingredient profile/dosing

I WILL NOT be paying attention to the EFFECTIVENESS of this product as I only have 1 serving and in order to FULL ASSESS true effectiveness I would need to log the product for a longer duration (weeks) to be able to give an accurate assessment of their claims.

Dosage
Intraworkout (sipped on during entire workout): 1 servings mixed with 8 oz cold water

Taste 3/10
After enjoying the flavor of 1 M.R. Vortex I was expecting a lot more. This watermelon flavor most closely resembles Hall's Watermelon flavored cough drops...a flavor that I would prefer not to have in my mouth during my workout. It wasnt a HORRIBLE watermelon flavor but again, wasnt exactly pleasant to have. Pretty disappointed in the flavoring.

Mixability 10/10
Surprised this mixability surpassed 1 M.R. Vortex! No foam or residue and washing down fairly smoothly!

Formula and Ingredients 7/10
It does have a BCAA blend along with a prop blend of CLA Matrix with added agmatine. The addition of a prop blend within a BCAA based product to me isn't really necessary although I understand the reasoning behind it. To me, the profile is nothing extremely special so it doesn't really want me to continue use of the product.

Effectiveness NA/10
As previously stated, I only have 1 serving so I cannot attest to product claims.

Overall 6.5/10
The flavor and ingredient profile formula was a big downfall on this product for me. With the flavor being extremely sub-par and the profile of the product being average, it really does not make me want to purchase this product or continue use of it. Not all products can be good and in my personal opinion, I truly have no interest in purchasing or trying this product again.

Evogen EVP Plus Peach Mango Full Review
After 20+ Servings of Logging



About the Product
For years, EVP® has set the standard in the non-stimulant pre-workout category for athletes seeking optimal muscle growth and recovery. Now, Evogen Nutrition has managed to harness that technology and take it one step further with the added energy and focus you crave! With ingredients that ignite recovery and growth, EVP Plus is designed to create the perfect balance between the skin-splitting pumps of EVP while boosting energy levels with ingredients that can significantly improve strength, focus and performance. Fire up your potential with EVP Plus, the complete energized pre-workout solution!

THE ELITE PREWORKOUT SOLUTION - WITH ENERGY!
 Ignites Massive Skin Splitting Pumps
 Clean Energy Complex Boosts Energy, Focus and Performance
 100% Carb & Sugar Free
 Designed for Maximum Potency & Absorption
 Contains FUSIL®, the Anabolic Trigger to Switch on NEW Muscle Growth

WHAT'S THE PLUS?
The "plus" in EVP Plus refers to the finely-tuned energy complex, designed to rapidly increase energy levels while improving focus and performance. Unlike other stimulant-based pre-workout products, EVP Plus won't over-stimulate and cause vasoconstriction - meaning you'll get all of the benefits of EVP for the perfect balance of ramped-up energy levels with the same sick, skin-splitting pumps you're used to!
One of the key ingredients in EVP Plus is BioPerine®, a nutrient-absorption enhancer that multiplies the effectiveness of the proprietary energy complex while increasing absorption and boosting the effects of EVP's core ingredients. The result is an even stronger pump than before and clean energy boost that gets rapidly transported into your system.

WHY EVP PLUS?
EVP Plus is the perfect pre-workout solution to get you through the toughest of workouts at any time of day. Whether you train first thing in the morning or after a long day of work, EVP Plus provides the ideal balance of a clean energy complex with insane muscle pumps. This new energy complex won't keep you up through the night or prevent you from getting a good night's sleep - which means you'll be able to train like a beast and still get the proper amount of rest to recover and grow.

THE ANABOLIC TRIGGER
Available only through Evogen Nutrition, FUSIL® is fermented, ultra-soluble L-Leucine of the highest quality, made for maximum absorption. L-Leucine is often called "the anabolic trigger" because it stimulates protein synthesis and ignites anabolic reactions throughout the body, accelerating the process of muscle growth and repair. FUSIL is manufactured under a precise, strictly monitored fermentation process to ensure that it is of the highest quality and purity.

Key Features Include


About Me
-Train 7x per week (squat/bench/deadlift 3-4x per week) on a DUP program with high volume (40+ sets per workout)
-202 lb bodybuilder and raw powerlifter
-HIGHLY energetic and positive to begin with along with a high recovery capability w/o the use of any supplements

What I Expect
To be honest before this product I had never had an Evogen product simply because of the price of the product. Although the price is fairly high, the products seemed to be top quality so I am expecting the product to provide what the label claims! Interesting to me that it is stated that this product is not meant to stim you out like many other pre workouts on the market so going into logging this, I need to keep that in mind as I tend to like high stim pre workouts.
-increased energy
-increased pumps
-increased workout endurance
-taste
-mixability

Dosage
Preworkout (30 mins prior to workout drunk on the car ride to the gym): 2 servings (1 entire sample packet) mixed with 12 oz cold water.

Water to Scoop Ratio for Best Flavor:
*Per 1 serving
4 oz = Extremely strong and almost unbearable to drink
5 oz = Slight better than 4 oz but still a little to overpowering to enjoy
6 oz = PERFECT for the best peach candy flavor!!!!


Taste 10/10
After the first day of tasting this, I KNEW I was going to love it! I have not had (or at least I cannot recall) ever having a peach flavored supplement and this one was a GREAT introduction to the taste! Honestly tasted like a liquid peach ring (one of those sugary candies.) The flavor was really a surprise and put this product over the top for me! I just wish there was a BCAA product with THIS exact flavoring just so I could drink it longer!

Mixability 7/10
To be honest the mixability of this product wasn't too bad. Had some days with a slight amount of residue in the bottom of the shaker. Although, everyday there was a decent amount of foam within the shake (something I did not truly enjoy.) Overall if the foam was gone it was have gotten a better score on this area from me. Foam isn't pleasant haha

Formula and Ingredients 8/10
The EVOPOIETIN 1-Alpha Prop blend contains a lot of ingredients that, if dosed correctly, COULD produce great results. As I say with all my reviews, when I see a prop blend, I immediately look to see if the ingredients included COULD produce the effects they claim on the label and this blend COULD produce good results within the energy, pump, and endurance realm. Time to test it in the field!

Effectiveness 9/10
LOVED logging this product and am proud to say it is my 2nd favorite pre workout behind Cellucor's C4 and Core FURY! Beginning with energy, this product is, as claimed, NOT MEANT TO STIM YOU OUT. My first day trying this product I realized the energy was barely there but rather produced a slowly energetic effect throughout the entire workout VS getting hit with a lot of energy at once. As the days went on, the energy seemed to improve as I got used to not being stimmed out and can say that I truly enjoyed the overall energetic benefits from EVP Plus! Next the pump. The pump aspect of this product was, in my opinion, 10x better than the energy aspect. Nearly everyday my pump was better than the day before with increased vascularity and overall a better hardness to my muscles. Lastly, my workout endurance. I cannot fully attribute this product to my workout endurance because I am simply put, a work horse and always have ample energy to get to the end of my workouts. I did not really notice a change in my Endurance levels so I cannot really grade this product's endurance capabilities.
Energy 9/10
Pump 9/10
Workout Endurance NA/10

Overall 9/10
This product was really a surprise for me as I just finished logging BPI's 1 M.R. Vortex pre workout and enjoyed that as well (ranked my 3rd favorite pre workout tied with mr. hyde and volatile.) I thought that that was a good pre workout and enjoyed it and THEN I tried this and thought that, although I feel it was a different category of pre workouts (high stim VS low stim levels), I still feel that Evogen EVP Plus is a better pre workout and is ranked my 2nd favorite pre workout! I would however increase the mixability to get the foam out of the product as well as take out the workout endurance claim. Other than that, I loved this product and it was just a GREAT product to log! Review of GlycoJect will be coming out soon following this log!
