Pump juice as stimulus after pct



have received the watermelon version of the pump juice. Packaging looks stellar, I appreciate that the labeling allows you to read every word instead of needing a magnifying glass. I will officially start the log on Monday.

I am approaching this from a different angle then most. I am 4 weeks out of pct, feeling "flat" in the gym and with general motivation. Attention span isn't what it should be, lack pep and drive. many of you know the place and feeling.... My experiment will see if the application of pump juice re-fires that drive even in my test depleted state. Not looking for miracles, I am a realist and those who have read my logs know that it will contain verifiable information as well as anecdotal "how I feel" observations.

I know my "state " of mind is due to a situation that this compound will not fix, but, I am hoping it will give me a "boost" to get back on track before the gains I made are lost......

good stuff a1! ill be following. you have ran excellent logs in the past and all we ask for is honest feedback
 
Opened the pack, noticed that the contents were completely mixed and powdery, many pre work outs I have tried have "clumps" in them, some even turned to a solid in the pack, this was pleasantly surprising.

Next surprise, it mixed!!!! Many of you will know what I mean, even with shaker cups many pre" just don't completely dissolve, are lumpy and leave all kinds of residue in the cup, The Pump juice mixed simply with a swirl in the bottom of a regular glass.... Cudo's on this. Means 100% of the product is usable...

Did as directed on label tried 1/2 scoop. At first I was under-whelmed, admittedly I was looking for a "jolt" that nervous uptick in energy, an uneasiness and jittery feel but it never happened. I did however have a good work out, felt motivated and actually pushed in a couple extra reps. My work outs had been laborious, I'm off and as the lead in states depleted in the testes for reasons of my own doing, it is early but I was pleased with todays efforts. Placebo? don't know yet but will keep you posted.
 
Today used a full scoop....

For awhile I've been noticing the decline in strength accompanying my current situation, I hesitate to list my lifts as they are depressing, this morning however I did move them slightly in the other direction. I had been failing regularly in the final set of exercises but today I finished all reps cleanly.
I'm sure its the pump juice... my mental state is largely the same but I did recapture a bit of drive, I missed it.

I am reading other logs, I am stoked that the guys are all enjoying the product immensely and I apologize that mine isn't "glowing" however I have always logged honestly. In my current state I am finding that the PJ is assisting already. I did afterall get all set work in cleanly. There is no buzzy feeling and I can say that the arms and upper chest are looking better today than they have in a couple weeks....

More to come....

i understand compleletly.But as i told you on another board and i will repeat here for other people.Some people love that jittery feeling of being overstimmed and others HATE IT. i like it, why i used dmaa based pre-workout products ! alot of people want preworkouts that dont give that feeling. this product is aimed at a the crowd that dont want to be overstimed.just effective clean energy and a good pump

great work a1 like always! We all will be following throughout, keep it up

It's nice that a company would target the low stim or non stim crowd. Some of us older athlete's don't need extra help to raise our BP's ... Good Move!
 
Third dose...

this morning was 30 min fasted cardio, then legs. Knees have been bothersome lately. weights were unspectacular but again, I had the energy and drive to finish all sets fully. I continue to like the "smooth" nature of the product, particularly the lack of an afternoon crash. I had been looking "flat" in the mirror, happens everytime I go natural, however yesterday even at bed time I had a more "finished" look with good curves and insertions....

Glad it's been treating you well so far, brother.

Coming "off" can definitely play with your emotions and the mirror -- no doubt about that. Good thing about PJ is there's no reason it can't be utilized pretty much all the time, so it's a nice product to have in the arsenal.

Glad you've been finding success at the end of your workouts.

Don't get hung up on the numbers; just on the progress.

Easier said than done, but I have that discussion with myself pretty regularly. I feel like what I'm doing isn't good enough or what it should be, but the bottom line is as long as it's moving in the right direction -- you're doing something right.

Stay strong.

Agreed...I am one of those older guys who don't really need that cracked out feeling. Just steady energy and focus. At 52 I just am no longer a spring chicken but still make things happen in the gym :)

I'm one of those that don't like that over stimmed feeling. I'm not a big caffeine addict, so when I take certain products.. the stims hit me hard.
so this sounds like a winner

No joke my friend. Looking for a pre workout, need to try this
 
Sorry for the break. I'm out if town watching my daughter pitch her first college tourney... Today I'm hitting it, first time since Friday. Didn't bring the PJ didn't want a TSA problem. Work out was labored, I feel a significant "change" in energy... I'll be back on the PJ as soon as I return home.... Thanks for the comments gentlemen, your attention on the log gives me a nice push... Thanks
 
excellent reports a1! Enjoy the precious time with your family/daughter, its priceless.

that's really cool a great dad moment :) cool will be checking to see how the few days off affect your reaction to pj
 
Again, sorry for the MIA...

Hit it well this morning, dosed 1 scoop 30 min prior. was chest day and I hadn't dabbled near 300 since being off. This morning I was feeling good and went for 275, got 3 clean and a partial. When "on" my max was 355 so you can see the fall off... but I was reluctant to go past 250 for awhile now.

I am starting to feel like myself again and I'm sure with my test levels getting closer to natural state when coupled with the PJ is the reason for the added strength and energy. Could also just be that my head is outta my ass, but the clean energy feel of the product is very cool.

Work out was 530 this am and my chest feels tight and solid a good long lasting pump...
 
Today was back, shoulders and Bi's
used 1 scoop of the pump juice

Military press, seated rows, DB shoulder press, overhead lat pulls, one arm db rows over bench, alternating db hammer curls finished with 21's on a straight bar..

I continue to improve out of the post pct funk. I feel confident saying now that the pj is helping as a catalyst, it gives clean energy and I feel focused. Today the 21's at the end are something I started when bulking, they really accent the peak if you concentrate on raising the weight over the pinky side of the hand instead of a sloppy supinated grip. My arms looked better than I'd seen them in a couple months. Work out was 530 am its now 1 pm and the bis are painfully firm as I peck away with my two fingers..lol

best part of this is the lack of a midday crash... the feeling of PJ being in you just seems to ebb slowly away...

Gotta love that!

Always nice to think back and realize that it just sort of faded hours ago without you noticing the transition until after the fact.

Great stuff, bro!
 
Today is supposed to be an off day.... trying to decide what to do, I feel motivated and want to hit it again

Workouts have been good, better than they have been for awhile, I feel like myself again, clear headed and decisive. The pump juice is providing a nice "intensity" to my efforts, part of this is visual for me. I look solid again from the rejuvenation and from the PJ. Pumps last well into the day. Energy stays with me for a while. This is a good product for me, and it came at a time where I can really appreciate it.
 
Been very busy at work the last three days. Monday I did my usual's am. Then about 4 in the afternoon I did 1/2 scoop as a booster/pick me up... It worked beautifully, fed 600 of my closets friends and still had energy at 10:30. I'm Old... that is remarkable. The nice surprise here is that I also fell asleep around 11:30, never would have tried this with some of the other stim heavies I have tried in the past.

My head and body continue to emerge from the funk... the PJ is accelerating the recovery nicely. Weight holding at 208... looks like I'm saving the gains...coolio!
 
had an awesome work out this morning. leg day and I pushed it pretty well. Knee is a bit troublesome again but I felt strong and on task.....
 
So I was dreading yesterday from a work load perspective, started at 5 am worked until 8 pm feeding the masses. I had an idea that worked out really well. Used a 1/4 scoop at 5,9,1,and 4pm... each time with 16 oz water. had clean clear energy all day, good focus and was decisive. the day was brutal in terms of the pace but the Pump Juice was a great additive. So I can say it is a great pre-work supplement as well as a great pre-workout one. No adverse effects on sleep, hit the sack and was out cold till morning......

Very unique dosing protocol. Wouldn't have thought about that one myself, but I dig it. Glad it worked out well for you!
