MattyH7688 putting Green Mag(lemonade) and Purple Wraath to the Ultimate Test

[MattyH7688]

A little why I am doing this log:
Well, Tank asked me to do this log because I seemed skeptical of the amount of hype Controlled Labs get on here. I think they are a great company, I am seriously curious what all this hype is all about. I have only tried samples of CL products so this should be interesting. I am cutting for a show so calories are gonna be getting lower and I am gonna be tired all day and need to keep as much muscle as possible. I have tried just about every type of creatine out there(besides Size on and MAN) and really have gotten the best results from simple monohydrate. I am curious how Green Mag will stand up and if I will see any difference from all the other creatines I have tried. I also have taken bulk bcaas, leucine, and EAA pills before. I am curious if Purple Wraath will deliver better results than all these. I am going to be as objective as possible in this log. I am excited for this.

How will I be gaging the effectiveness of products:
Green Mag:
Amount of strength kept while cutting
Stamina in the gym
The new Lemonade taste

Purple Wraath
Amount of muscle saved while cutting
Endurance
focus
RECOVERY

i thought i remembered you recommending my little girl.

back on track

can't wait to see what you think of the CL products. i havent noticed too much since I started supplementing with EAA's/BCAA's. i was hoping mainly to reduce DOMS, cause i have the worst, but haven't noticed anything positive in that regard.

DOMS right now is terrible, especially in the legs.. back when i was bulking i felt like i could lift the body part every other day.. now i just feel like an old sore man

[ewh228]

in. not to derail or anything, but mind if i get your opinion on the waxy maize? in your PWO shake, right?

[I OuTsiDeR I]

Good Luck, I know CL is a good company but they are hyped too much IMO on the forums but hey they gotta make money i guess.

[pu12en12g]

Good luck, I'm sure you'll love the combo if you're hitting the gym hard

[pu12en12g]

dude my faces r so friggen goofy when i pose.. i hate it

in. not to derail or anything, but mind if i get your opinion on the waxy maize? in your PWO shake, right?

honestly, if i wasnt cutting i wouldnt use it.. dextrose is to high of a gi and bloats the hell out of me.. which i dont mind while bulking but i hate it so much while cutting so i pay the extra money but when bulking its oats and dextrose all the way for me

Good Luck, I know CL is a good company but they are hyped too much IMO on the forums but hey they gotta make money i guess.

we shall find out about the hype

Good luck, I'm sure you'll love the combo if you're hitting the gym hard

[MattyH7688]

By special request of PU (taken before workout right about to eat breakfast)


About my day: Woke up late and got some awesome sleep last night. Lifted with a friend of mine which is nice. I think i can start to have good workouts again since. I mixed my PW with this crystal light stuff in a big bottle. Tasted awesome and like one of those grape tootsie roll suckers. The green mag lemonade tasted damn good too. Not country time lemonade :P.. more of a generic walmart brand lemonade haha but still good nonetheless

Strength:8/10 My bench dropped a bit.. but i am doing 3 hours of cardio a week and eating not many carbs at all so come on i dont think anyone can expect their strength to stay full.. only lost two reps so not to bad

Energy/Focus: 8/10Awesome focus through chest.. noticed a bit of the BA tingles near the chest workout.. however biceps i was a bit tired near the end. Focus was still good though so hopefully i can have some more endurance near the end for the smaller body parts.
