Review of Muscle-Elements AminoPM

Muscle-Elements AminoPM  Review

Once again Muscle-Elements www.muscle-elements.com  aka ME has released another one of a kind product opening up a new category, Amino Acid Night Time blend called Power Down AminoPM. What is soo special you ask, it is sleep aid that contains all the sleep inducing elements such as Gaba and Tryptophan as well as BCAA. It touts a positive night sleep as well as well as muscle repair thus keeping your body in an anabolic state (my words not theirs)


As you can see below, ME keeps to the quality and transparency of the product listing everything in the product, no hidden proprietary blends.



Analysis:

Dosage:
With all sleep products, I personally start off with half the dosage and do my trial run on a weekend in case I wake up with the drunk/”zombiefied” feeling. I believe (although not validated) that these drunk feelings are cause by Pikatropin and or Picamilon which AminoPM does not have. I started with ½ a scoop 2-3 times then graduated to 1 full scoop. With each usage I woke up rested, alert and ready to hit my morning cardio session.  Some night I even slept less 5-6 hours but woke up feeling 
great.

Mixability:
Here’s where it is important. You need to add AminoPM to water and not put in a glass then add water. By doing the latter it clumps and I found myself adding more water to get that last bit of residue. By adding you dosage to water, you avoid this problem. You do not stir a little more than usual but it does mix fairly well. If you decide to go the route of a shaker bottle, be aware that overshaking will cause a nice froth/foam.

Taste:
I had the pleasure of using Pineapple Mango. Let me state I do not like Mango as a fruit but found this very pleasing. In my opinion the Mango overpowered the Pineapple.

Pros:
·         I typically fell asleep, on average, 20 minutes after ingestion.
·         Many sleep aids sets my bladder off, AminoPM DID NOT….HUGE plus for me personally
·         If you are able to use 1 scoop, you will get 40 servings where the average for others is 30.

Pricing:
 I have seen anywhere from $37-$41. Some might feel this is pricey but if you take a typical sleep formula and add your own BCAAs, you will be somewhere in the $50-$60 range.

Closing:

Once again ME has turned out another great product keeping true to quality, great taste and full disclosure. If you are having trouble sleeping and don’t want to put yourself into a coma, definitely pick some up.

Review of USP Labs Modern Pre

USP Labs Modern Pre

The fine folks at USP Labs were kind enough to send me their new PreWorkout Modern Pre claiming

More Reps!
Less Soreness!
Increases Repetitions in Very First Workout. 3 clinical studies!
8g L-citrulline malate!
250 milligrams citicoline!

Zero sugar or artificial flavors!

 

So as always I was up for the challenge.

Recommended dosage was 1-2 scoops, 175 mgs of caffeine per scoop.For those of you that know me, I tend to be more on the stim sensitive side, I purposely keep myself this way thus trying not to fry my “sensors”

Taste – What I received was Fruit Punch. Not sure if I would consider it truly a fruit punch considering the other competitors out there but probably the closest thing. Flavor was ok, nothing that made me say “damn this is awesome” but certainly palatable and as I continued further use it did grow on me.

Dosage – after playing with a few different trials, I found my sweet spot to be 1 ½ scoops. Kept me alert, quite focused and not stimmed out.

Efficacy – I have to admit, my strength did progress nicely from workout to workout and my recovery time between sets did seem to diminish.

Mixability – My preference is a shaker bottle with wire whisk ball, never any problems, dissolved wonderfully.

Overall Pro’s – very little creatine which I prefer as my kindeys already produce a large amount of creatine/creatinine, again increased strength, alertness and well being and very little to no crash. Again I was on a lower doseage.

Negatives – the only negative I found was the “tingles” hit hard and fast and seemed to diminish just as quick as they came on.

In closing would I use this again? Most definitely, good ingredient dosages, full disclosure label, lower stimmed. Can’t wait to try additional flavors.
