Could it be? A man armed, motivated and ready to enter battle with just one company on his back?
Ready to put on weight going into shirtless season?
Ready to work SO hard, push SO far, to achieve the best possible results?
Yes, Because Results Matter.
First
The S/O
I need to give a shoutout to Bob, "The Solution" for the tubs of Green Apple and Pineapple C4.
Also, I want to thank both Bob for the hookup and Mike for the delivery of the 2 lb. tubs of Molten Chocolate and Cinnamon Swirl Cor Performance Whey.
Lastly, I want to thank my wallet for the Whey Stack and Beta-BCAA.
Second
The Supps
C4: Pineapple, Green Apple and Strawberry Margarita
Beta-BCAA: Lemon-Lime, Tropical Punch and Watermelon
Cor-Performance Whey: Cinnamon Swirl, Cookies and Cream, Peanut Butter Marshmallow and Molten Chocolate
Third
The Plan
In here, I will be posting recipes and uses of the whey, workouts/videos, food porn, macros, progress pics, motivation and of course, my thoughts on the products. After using the product for the first time, I will post a review. Then, my days posts will consist of comments on how I feel the supplement benefited me for the day. The lowest supply I have is 90 servings of BCAA which I do not use everyday and thus, I will be running this for the entire summer.
I am at 171 pounds right now. Since deciding to bulk, I have put on 4 pounds. My 1RM's are:
Bench-250
Squat-305
DL-275 (never tried more)
I plan on weighing in at a minimum of 185 pounds afterwards. If my squat is not more than 100 pounds more than my bench and my bench not at 275, I will have failed. This may be wishful thinking, but I'm going for the gusto.
So now, with what I like to consider the top company in the industry literally on my back, let us begin.

Well, let's kick it off!
Cookies and Cream Overnight Oats
Mixability: 8.8/10- It was smooth and thick, the cookie bits didn't all sink and it didn't clump. Some of the powder got stuck to the lid directly after shaking, though, and came out in powder form when I poured it over the oats. No big deal as it mixed into the liquid, but still, had to note.
Taste: 9.7/10- Shewww, nicely done Cellucor. The chocolate cookie bits are dark chocolate. Really gives you the exact taste of an oreo. The liquid is the perfect cream flavor. Not too sweet, not bland by any stretch and very, very delicious.

Alright, initial review #2!
Cinnamon Swirl Overnight Oats
Mixability: 9.5/10- Added a little bit of water with the milk this time because I realized that I like my oats a little bit gooier than I used to. This helps loosen them up. As for the shake, zero residue/clump/foam. You can see it pictured below.
Taste: 9.9/10- I've had this before, but for the sake of the log, I'll re-review it. It still blows me away that this can have a macro profile as amazing as it does. It tastes like something out of a famous bakery, no lie. Unbelievable.
Shake the night before:
Out the fridge:

Head to Head battle of the new C4 Flavors:
Green Apple vs. Strawberry Margarita
I'm in need of a stim break, but to give the log a little more beneficial information, I went one scoop margarita, one scoop apple today. For the test, I spoon stirred each into 8 oz. of ice cold water.
Mixability
They're the same product, so I didn't expect a difference, but the color of the liquid means a tiny bit to me. If something is delicious, its color will add even more points to the taste rating. As you can see, both began to disperse before a spoon mix, and after a couple swirls of a spoon in each, I had a completely perfect, homogenous solution with no particles left.
Taste
Honestly, the fact that I'm fortunate enough to even try these two let alone have them both in my stack is unreal.
Green Apple
Rating: 10/10- It is spot on, perfect, green apple. It's sweet, it has a little sour tang to it, it's strong...absolutely amazing.
Strawberry Margarita
Rating: 10/10- Again, it could not be better. It tastes like any strawberry candy you've ever had. Sweet, no sourness at all--just sweet and refreshing. Similar to Strawberry Fanta soda.
The Verdict:
You can't go wrong with either, but although I am a Green Apple fan and love stuff that is slightly sour, the nod goes toward Strawberry Margarita. It is hands down, without a doubt, the best tasting supplement I have ever had. Hats off to Cellucor for knocking both of these out of the park and, once again, delivering quality products with fantastic taste. Off to do chest!Myprotein's Official Bodybuilding.com Representative ✔

Cellucor Cor Performance Beta-BCAA
Watermelon
Mixability
Rating: 10/10
There was no clump, no residue and it took a couple of shakes. It did foam up, but I didn't start sipping until midway through my workout and the foam was all gone. Absolutely no issues here.
Taste
Rating: 10/10
I'm really not a big watermelon guy, but Cellucor can't fail on flavoring. This is refreshing, sweet and thirst quenching. Very strong, too. Scratch the 8 oz/scoop recommendation--go with at least 18 oz. I went 14 at first and had to dilute it, putting me at my sweet spot of about 20 oz.
Effects
Rating: 9/10
Such a great endurance kick. Love the extra Beta-Alanine in addition to a pre-wo. It keeps the tingles throughout the lift which I love. I'll be able to comment further later tonight when I log the workout and eats for the day on its effectiveness on recovery.Myprotein's Official Bodybuilding.com Representative ✔

Comments: C4 is unreal. I actually feel it hit me and from there it's just weights. The Beta-BCAA made the workout, though. I was gassed after my work sets of flat bench...dumbbells felt so heavy. Couple swigs and I was back after it. Felt awesome. As for my eats, the proats bowl in the AM is nowhere near enough. I think I'm going to start using 1.5 cups of oats and dropping my carbs later in the day...but oh my is that stuff delicious. I live for my post-workout omelette and potatoes but jeeze is it hard to put down that much food. I love being able to but holy hell it makes you feel like a fat $hit. It's alright, though, I see my goal and am going to do whatever I can to achieve it. The pancakes were unmatched. So delicious it is unbelievable. I'm a damn chef.
Either going to eat some more potatoes and chicken for dinner or make another stack of pancakes w/ greek yogurt...haven't decided yet. Had a great day though aside from that damn tire!Myprotein's Official Bodybuilding.com Representative ✔
