Here we go! I'm thrilled at the prospect of running another log, this time for what so far appears to be a great couple of products, namely Pro Supps' Mr Hyde NitroX and HydroBCAA. I first off just want to send a huge thanks to toneekay and the rest of the reps over there for this logging opportunity. Mr. Hyde is a product I've long wanted to try and just for one reason or another never had the chance. My brother-in-law has raved to me about it though, so I'm stoked about this. I'll be running this log until I run out of product or Thanos snaps, whichever comes first.

I'll keep this short and sweet. I'm 39, work in IT, and have been lifting for something like 3 or 4 years now, with mixed results. At first I was rigorously cutting, and lost a lot of weight. The first two bulking attempts I made were not great in terms of results, I gained weight too fast, gained it in the wrong places, freaked out and went back into a cut. Right now I'm mainly just trying to get stronger while s - l - o - w - l - y gaining weight. I have previously run Allpro, Fierce 5 (both novice and intermediate versions), and Kelei's (formerly) pinned hypertrophy program. I'm currently running a PPL that I came up with for myself and am still tweaking trying to find a balance.

There's no mistaking that aroma that hits your nostrils when you open that tub and take a whiff. This is one of the most potent watermelon flavors I've encountered in the supplement market. It doesn't taste as much like actual watermelon to me as it does a watermelon-flavored candy, which is actually really nice. And a quick look at the profile reveals just how potent this stuff is:

The powder is very fine and smooth, dissolving easily with minimal shaking:

I will comment more on how this PWO works for me when I post my workouts, for the time being I think it's worth noting that on Tuesday (which was my PUSH day) I took a half scoop and that was more than enough to power my workout. But more on that later.

With a lot of interesting flavor options to go with, I decided to try "Dragon Fruit." I've honestly never had Dragon Fruit, nor a Dragon Fruit-flavored beverage before. The flavor is interesting, to say the least. Definitely a welcome reprieve from some of the more common flavors. And the color looks pretty cool too.

One thing that is pretty cool is that a single scoop contains 7g of 2:1:1 BCAAs, as well as a number of EAAs. The taste is refreshing and so far I am enjoying drinking this between sets. As I post my actual workouts I will comment more on taste, performance, etc. For now I just wanted to say that so far I really like it and am enjoying having it.

That's it for my intro. Stay tuned as I am going to start posting my workouts. I have worked out twice now with this, and have those workouts to post. Monday was legs, Tuesday was push. Later today I'm doing pull.
