***Day 1:***
I will be following this layout for my supplementation throughout the testing.

1 Hour Pre-workout Supplementation:
-1 Scoop Substance WPI

45 minutes Pre-workout Supplementation:
-4 Pills White Blood
-5 Pills Green Blood
-2 Pills X-Factor
-3 Scoops Glycergrow

30 minutes Pre- and Throughout Workout Supplementation.
-2 Scoops Purple Wraath Sipped

30 minutes Post-Workout
1 scoop Substance WPI

***Observations and Thoughts***
-First of all Purple Wrath did not dissolve very well, there were many particles floating around at the bottom of the bottle after i shook it. Also a thick foam was produced at the top of the bottle from the Purple Wraath.
-The taste of Purple Wraath is like a very strong Chewable Grape Tylenol for Kids ground and mixed with water. Its not very tolerable and I will def need to find another way of taking this product.
- I intended to take the 2 scoops preworkout but i ended up taking it 30 minutes before and sipped it throughout my entire workout.
- My workout did not feel any differently today.
- I will be lowering my intake to 1 scoop of Purple Wraath tomorrow.
- I did not experience the tingling feeling.

[jer @h2o]

How much water did you mix it with?

[pu12en12g]

Try downing both scoops pre-workout, and chasing it immediately with water / juice.

[CONTROLLED LABS]

yeah, use 10 ounces of water per scoop and let it sit for 30 mintues, this will allow it to dissolve better. mine dissolves pretty quickly.

i think im gunna go with pu12en12gs suggestion and down the scoops and chase them with a drink because even if it is dissolved the taste is pretty strong.

Dude, it is a supplement log - the testers are supposed to report on these types of things since mixability is often an issue. He wasn't "bitching", he was reporting that it doesn't immediately dissolve.

If you don't want to read that kind of impression/detail, then reading the supplement log section is probably not the best idea.

I have no idea what you're talking about

You said the original poster was "bitching" about "the stupidest ****". I said to you that if you don't want to read about that kind of stuff (mixability), then this is not the forum you should be in ... because people are concerned about mixability and it's natural to mention that type of detail in a supplement log.

In other words: he wasn't bitching, and it isn't "stupid ****" when it's something that a lot of people care about.

If you still don't get it, then that's not my problem.

hahaha i guess he deleted his post. thanks for dealing with him so i didnt have to.

[fish153]

no problem. it was a stupid comment for a supplement log where mixability and taste are important things to report!

***Day 2***
Today I tried something different

45 minutes Pre-workout Supplementation:
-4 Pills White Blood
-5 Pills Green Blood
-2 Pills X-Factor
-3 Scoops Glycergrow

30 minutes Pre-Workout.
-1 Scoop Purple Wraath mixed with
-1 Scoop Substance WPI
-16 oz Water

***Observations and Thoughts***
- The taste was alot more tolerable today. It was still alittle different but the Watermelon Substance WPI helped alot. I chased it with some Lemon Snapple Iced Tea.
- I still did not have a tingly feeling but maybe tomorrow when I try 2 scoops again all at once I will feel it.
- I reached a new Personal Record today. I did Squats: 10x225. Before it was 6X225. Yea I know it's weak but hey its getting there. But anyways I was really happy about that, I seemed to get a burst of energy out of nowhere and my knees didn't bother me as much.
