Formutech BCAA's 'Perform' Product Log
Watch me Perform
...sounds hawt

if you would like to pick up this product or compare reviews, you can find it HERE



Now why I have chosen to log bcaa's, as this tends to be a popular question for those who have never supplemented aminos including myself:

I train and live on a college campus. Being on a college meal plan I find that it is astronomically easier to load up on carbohydrates, than it is protein. Ideally bcaa's will help me decrease protein breakdown if I am to go below target (and depending on what source of research you consult, increase my protein synthesis)

In addition, my workouts average 2 hours per session, so intra workout supplementation should be beneficial to keep me going.

Here it is y'all. Bring it on!
and thank you Formutech, much love <3

Treating me well so far

Feb 11 Leg Day + 1st Impression

I carry around a big 3L water lug-o-jug, and after sip testing 8 oz's of water +1 scoop of perform I thought the taste was a little strong, so I decided to try out 2 scoops with just under 3L of water.

Started sipping 45 minutes prior to lifting, and throughout the workout, finishing fully just in time with the end of my workout. My endurance felt fantastic, even after lifting heavy. Noticeably faster recovery times (possibly mental, long hair/no care)

Complete supplementation:
4 capsules of Core Zap! (15 minutes pre-workout)
2 scoops Perform ( 45 minutes pre/intra workout)

Back Squats Bar to the pins, and press
135 x 8
135 x 5
225 x 5
245 x 5
255 x 3
285 x 1
315 attempt, fail However, overall I am very happy with this performance.

I am participating in an exercise physiology based research study at my uni, where I am doing daily hip strengthening exercises. I'll update you guys with my experiences. As of now its helped me greatly with these extra deep squats.

Stiff Leg Deadlifts
135 x 10
185 x 10

315 x 8

Yeah I had initially planned to do Sergio Oliva's arm routine for fun/a challenge, but I had forgotten my notes on it!
Not even close to matching his volume, but it felt great regardless!
