Pumped Up On Isatori’s PWR Pre-Workout Supplement

Power. Energy. Focus. Pump. Instantly. These are the claims that Isatori makes on the label for PWR, its super-concentrated pre-workout formula. And lucky me—I had the pleasure of trialing PWR for one month, and to assess its effects on my performance in the gym. Did I get to experience all these yummy sensations? More on that in a moment… When I opened the jar I was relieved that I didn’t have to take a 1 /4 cup serving size to...

Recommendations: Post-Workout Recovery Supplements

We all know that muscle growth starts in the gym with a great workout. But equally important is the rest, recuperation, post workout nutrition and even the “recovery” supplement that follows it. The most important of these recovery supplements are BCAAs, or branched-chain-amino acids. These branched chain aminos (specifically isoleucine, valine, and leucine) have multiple functions that make them useful for anyone engaged...

Recommendations: Pre-Workout Supplements (eg, SuperPump, NO-Xplode, Jacked)

While I am a fan of the convenience offered by MRPs, many lower cost brands are chock-full of cheap, high glycemic fillers. Not so with this product; there does appear to have been a real effort to develop a quality product...

Pre-Workout Supplements: Concentrated (Jack3d, PWR, etc) Vs. Traditional (No-Xplode, SuperPump)

Note: DMAA (mentioned in the video) is subject to regulatory action and has been removed from most pre-workout products. Pre-workout supplements are all the rage in the workout / body building community these days. If you want a product that will give you a boost of energy, some additional mental focus, a great pump, and some additional ingredients that will help you get the most out of your workout, than you’re probably in the...

Review: Pete Sisco’s Train Smart Static Contraction and Power Factor Training!

Pete Sisco’s Train Smart static contraction body building routine is quite possibly the coolest, and most revolutionary weight training or body building routine that I’ve encountered in some time. Train Smart is this mostly because it strongly challenges the core precepts I have been “pre-programmed” to believe are necessary to facilitate optimum muscle growth. You know, frequent and intense training sessions....
