Finally my log is up
Big thanks to prosupps and toneekey for hooking me up witht his awesome stack.
ProSupps HydroBCAA
Flavor - 8/10 Flavor was okay, just like most highly dosed bcaa/eaa products out there. Miami vice was pretty light and tasted more like a fruit punch (slightly sour?) to me with slight bitter eaa aftertaste. Used 12-14 oz of water. It's one of the best dosed intra supps, so I didn't expect it to be super delicious Still they did a great job.
Mr. Hyde NitroX
Mr.Hyde has always been one of the strongest pwos for me. It kicks in pretty fast (15-20min) and lasts throughout my workout. In fact, it often made me jittery (even though I've used stuff containing >450mg caffeine), so mostly I used 2/3 scoops. Today i went full scoop.
https://forum.bodybuilding.com/showt...ght=blokk+hyde - link to my previous review.
Flavor - Really Good Mr. hyde always tasted great to me. Although it contains ingredients, which taste like sh#t, they always managed to nail the flavors. What-o-melon is probably my favorite. It tastes more like a candy watermelon. Used about 8 oz of water and flavoring was right on spot. Mixes just perfectly, no residues and no clumps
Energy & Focus For pure energy it's one of the strongest pres. Gives same energy as Metabolic ESP (Amp cit version) and I consider it the strongest for energy. Focus is lacking. It's mostly just energy and focus is not much improved, Hard to describe that feeling
Pumps - meh/10 Today I did arms and pumps were worse, then with my previous pwo (nutrabio pre). But it's not a pump focused pre. Nitrosigine, creatine nitrate and citrulline are all underdosed. But for me 1/2 scoop of mr. hyde with a scoop of a good stim-free pre, would make a perfect stack.
Workout itself was great. Great energy that lasted 1.5h and even improved my cardio. Less pumps and focus.

subbed.
Feeling you on the BCAAs. I've gone as high as 14 ounces of water for one scoop, wouldn't recommend less than that as it still tastes too concentrated.
Hyde is legit. I only went full scoop on legs, half scoop for all else, but after reading this I think I'll try 2/3 scoop on Wednesday and see how it goes. Tomorrow is legs, so I'll be full scooping it for that.
Agree with your assessment of watermelon. Definitely more of a candy watermelon, which is really cool. Watermelon is one of my fave supp flavors (along with orange). Good initial review, I'll follow along!Better Every Day: A Log About Lifting, Supps, and Life

Subb'd!!! Glad to see you got the products in and have already dove in on all the fun!
I'll third that comment for the intra being concentrated. I feel like the doses are more geared towards the typical shaker bottle users that tend to refill their bottles half way through (at least that's what I do) to sip on their drink throughout the entirety of the workout. If you are one of of those hardcore gallon jugger luggers, then you can full scoop, double scoop, triple scoop that bad boy and filler up to have the best tasting intra (this is what we do at expos and demos lol).

Two more excellent workouts fueled by mr. hyde nitro x and hydrobcaa. This time I used about 10 oz of water and flavor seemed much better. I mean in 14 oz it was too light. Mixed okay, but there were lots of residues in my glass.
Today i hit arms/abs/cardio and yesterday was my chest/back day.
Straight bar curls - 80 lbs x 10 (3 sets)
EZ curls - 60lbs x 10 (3 sets)
Single-arm preacher curls - 40 lbs x 10
DB curls - 45lbs x 10 (4 sets with 15lbs DBs as finishers)
Hammer curls - 45 lbs x 10 4 sets
Reverse curls - 60 lbs x 10 4 sets
Rope push-down - 60 lbs x 10 4 sets
Dips - 15 reps 4 sets
Close-grip bench press - 130 lbs x 10 4 sets
Straight-bar pushdown - 120 lbs x 10 4 sets
DB kickback - 15 lbs x 10 (slow reps)
This is what i did today. Pumps were still less, then with my previous pre containing 6g citrulline. I do have a single serving of stim-free pump pre left, which I'm going to try once with mr. hyde. Energy was great. Last night I slept only for 5 hours, but this thing woke me up.

Two more great workouts using this stack. On my arms day, I stacked mr. hyde with my last serving of a stim-free pre containing glycerol, citrulline and agmatine all at great doses. This is a perfect stack. Tons of energy from mr.hyde and tons of pumps from correctly dosed ingredients.
Today I had chest/back day.
Bench Press - 180 x 10
Incline DB Press - 60 lbs x 10
Cable Flyes - 50 lbs x 10
Machine Bench Press - 140 x 10
Wide grip pullups - 4 x 10
Wide grip front pulldown - 150lbs x 10
Machine rows - 150lbs x 10
DB rows - 60 lbs x 10
Standing lat pushdown - 80lbs x 12
Workout was great. On chest/back day, I didn't stack mr. hyde with anything else. Energy, as always, was just off the top.

Awesome brah! Glad to see you're stacking prewo's correctly. A lot of times people will try to stack Hyde with other products that include their own stim profile and it tends to be TOO much. Interested to see how you'll feel once you start tapering off the pump ingredients and primarily taking Hyde (where it lacks these ingredients).

Great job on the log so far, and for Mr. Hyde I've always gone with slightly under one serving
and that always delivered on the long lasting energy. You also mentioned that the focus wasn't
that great and that's where I think Mr. Hyde could improve in but as for pumps for me it wasn't
too bad considering this PW is more for the hard hitting energy. I've stacked it with citrulline
malate and glycerol also and that definitely upped the pump effects.

Two more workouts using mr. hyde solely. Somehow I managed to catch cold and feeling like sh#t. But still didn't skip the gym. My stack was more like a nsaid+mr.hyde today. Workout was okay. was lacking both energy and focus, due to yesterday's fever. Today i hit arms.
Straight bar curls - 60 lbs x 10 (3 sets)
EZ curls - 60lbs x 10 (3 sets)
Single-arm preacher curls - 40 lbs x 10
DB curls - 30lbs x 10 (4 sets with 15lbs DBs as finishers)
Hammer curls - 30 lbs x 10 5 sets
Reverse curls - skipped this one
Rope push-down - 60 lbs x 10 4 sets
Dips - 10 reps 4 sets
Close-grip bench press - 130 lbs x 20 3 sets
Straight-bar pushdown - 100 lbs x 10 4 sets
DB kickback - 15 lbs x 10 (slow reps)
I don't actually care much about the weights. i use weights, which I'm most comfortable at that particular day.
Sweating was very strong, due to combination of paracetamol and mr. hyde

Skipped 1 training day due to fever Had 2 great workouts with mr. hyde. On my arms day, did approximately the same weights. Energy was great. This time, I didn't stack mr.hyde with anything. Used hydrobcaa as intra-supp.
On my shoulders day, used about 2/3 scoop of mr. hyde.
DUMBBELL LATERAL RAISE - 25 lbs x 10
DUMBBELL SHRUG - 45 lbs x 10
BENT-OVER LATERAL RAISE - 25 lbs x 10
DUMBBELL FRONT RAISE - 35 lbs x 10
ARNOLD PRESS - 45 lbs x 10
Some abs and cardio.
Energy at 2/3 scoop was similar to full scoop, but without that jitteriness. 2/3 seems perfect spot for me.

Today was my arms day. Stacked 1 scoop of mr.hyde with 5 grams of bulk l-citrulline (still have some left )
Straight bar curls - 70 lbs x 10 (3 sets)
EZ curls - 60lbs x 10 (3 sets)
Single-arm preacher curls - 40 lbs x 10
DB curls - 45lbs x 10 (used that weight for the last set.)
Hammer curls - 30 lbs x 10 4 sets
Reverse curls - 60 lbs x 10
Rope push-down - 70 lbs x 10
Dips - 15 reps 4 sets
Close-grip bench press - 175 lbs x 10 3 sets
Straight-bar pushdown - 80 lbs x 10 4 sets
DB kickback - 15 lbs x 10
Energy and pumps were all on top, but as i've said before focus with mr.hyde is lacking a bit. it's mostly like a stim bomb for me. Kicked in in about 15-20 min.

2 more workouts fueled by mr. hyde. Yesterday had an arms day and today was my chest/back day. Did full scoops both times and today felt a bit jittery, but felt really strong, so did slightly higher weights
Bench Press - 220 x 7
Incline DB Press - 120 lbs x 10
Cable Flyes - 60 lbs x 10
Machine Bench Press - 120 x 10
Wide grip pullups - 4 x 10
Wide grip front pulldown - 160lbs x 10
Machine rows - 140lbs x 10
DB rows - 60 lbs x 10
Bench press seemed easy to me today. Energy was just off the top, although focus was lacking energy was just off the roof and had an awesome workout today. Somehow, mr.hyde worked the strongest for me today.
But watermelon flavor tastes a bit boring to me I think, their green apple was the best.

Two more high octane workouts fueled by mr.hyde On my arms day I used full scoop of mr.hyde alone and on my chest/back day went slightly over Since I was coming to the end, I ttok what was left in the tub, a truly heaping scoop.
Bench Press - 180 x 15
Incline DB Press - 100 lbs x 8
Cable Flyes - 60 lbs x 10
Machine Bench Press - skipped this one my shoulder was hurting slightly.
Wide grip pullups - 4 x 10
Wide grip front pulldown - 140lbs x 10
Machine rows - 140lbs x 10
DB rows - 45 lbs x 10
Energy was off the roof. A heaping scoop was a bit too much Felt very jittery and hands were shaking whole time. Even 1 scoop is too much. 2/3 seems perfect to me in terms of energy, but focus is still lacking. Pumps are also lacking, so it's like a "wake the f#ck up think to me".
And for the flavor, although I liked it initially, it has some bitter aftertaste which over time makes this pre not so good tasting. From the flavors, which I've tried, green apple was truly delicious.

As for hydrobcaa, I still have 1/3 of tub left. As an intra supp, I like it very much. Can't say I noticed any acute improvements in recovery or endurance, but I always train on an empty stomach so use bcaa-s conctantly. On non-workout days, just mix a scoop of hydrobcaa in 20 oz and sip on while reading my book.

Had 2 workouts without mr.hyde. Training without caffeine is total sh#t
So here are my final thoughts
Mr. Hyde
Flavor - 8/10 (What-o-Melon) When you intially sip this flavor, it's really good. But after that an unpleasant aftertaste hits. The flavor itself, as I've noted before, is more "candish", then most other watermelon supps taste. Have mixed it in 8oz and it was still strong. 10-12 oz was perfect to me.
Mixability - perfecto
Energy - 10/10 It's still one of the strongest pwo for me. Although it often makes me jittery and shaky, energy is off the roof. Focus, on the other hand, is lacking. Kicks in pretty fast (15-20 min)
Pumps - Meh Didn't notice any significant improvements in pumps, throughout my log.
HydroBCAA
Flavor - 8.5/10 (Miami Vice) Initially this flavor to me tasted like a bit strange fruit punch. Miami Vice cocktail itself contains these ingredients:
Rum
Pineapple juice
Fresh lime juice
Coconut cream
Giffard Crème de Fraise des Bois liqueur
I didn't notice any of those It still tastes a bit strange to me, but still pleasant. Has a slight aftertaste.
Mixed very well. No residues, but a bit foamy.
As for the profile, it's great. BCAAs at high dosings with some extra EAAs.
