Three weeks in, Muscle Elements full steam ahead

Hi everyone!

I’m back to give you a quick update on Muscle Elements, the current brand of supplements that I am testing out.

It’s been a solid three weeks of steady training, I’ve been religious about taking the grow with me stack and I will start out by giving you my experience so far with PreCre – I cracked the seal on the watermelon flavor first because it sounded refreshing and it has been a little warm for my liking around here as of late.  My first impression on day one was the pleasant and subtle taste that is not overwhelming or watered down, It mixes in a glass with a spoon just fine but I found it to taste even better with a shaker bottle in cold water and even an ice-cube or two if available.  I don’t like to judge a products efficiency with the first dose or even the 5th, yes you can start to make assumptions early on but there are so many variables to consider, so even though I took notes the first week I really didn’t start to form any opinions until I had gone through all my training sessions more than once so here are my early thoughts.

• Mixes well
• Tastes great
• No tingle and no stomach discomfort
• Sustained energy, I found that for me it was more effective when taken 45-60 minutes pre workout and last for several hours
• I’ve been getting a pump almost immediately – within the first 3-4 sets of a given body part
• Subtle, but noticeable strength increases in both the overall power and muscle endurance areas, basically each week I’ve been able to increase my total poundage through more weight and more reps
• No post exercise crash

So far I’m extremely impressed with PreCre and am really excited to see if these gains continue over the next 6 weeks

AminoFlow is the 2nd part of the Grow With Me Stack, If you remember in my introduction I am and always have been a huge believer in BCAA’s and Amino drinks in general,  AminoFlow is unique in the sense it combines two products in one with the addition of nitric oxide along side of the bcaa’s and other ingredients.  I started out by using AminoFlow two times per day, I was taking one dose as soon as I got out of bed (about 30 minutes) before my first meal and again pre-workout with PreCre, but after about 5 days I noticed that my muscles were exceptionally full and I was more vascular than normal early on in the morning which to me meant that it was doing exactly what the description of the product said it would.  So I thought to myself why not increase the dose, for one there is no harm in giving your body a steady flow of aminos to promote recovery and limit any chance of catabolism, secondly I loved the taste of it and it was helping me get down more fluids everyday so I took the experience from my early morning dose and decided to start upping my daily usage to four scoops per day.

1. One Scoop 30 minutes before breakfast
2. One Scoop 30 minutes before my pre workout meal (about 2 1/2 hours prior to training)
3. One Scoop about 15 minutes before I finished training (to capitalize on the post workout meal #1)
4. One Scoop before post workout meal #2 (which for me comes in the form of real food about 90 minutes after I finish post workout meal #1)

The results I have been seeing are almost hard to believe, I feel like I have a constant pump & my recovery time is phenomenal and I’m getting leaner and harder with out being on any type of cutting diet!  It’s still early but I think I might of found my new favorite overall product!

Introducing Muscle Elements. The brand I will take with “Me” to the Mr. Olympia Fitness Weekend

He we go again, I am back from an amazing month of out of the gym activities and I am ramped up to get back into the gym routine and see if this new and exciting brand of supplements can pass the test and become a Stevie T Trusted Brand.

I Introduce to you Muscle Elements!

The founders of Me passionately live the health and fitness lifestyle and have designed the products for their personal use, so the best of the best ingredients and complete formulas are what Me brings to the market. No hype, no under dosed products, no hiding behind large unspecified ingredient blends and nothing but results are the goal of this brand. Whatever your goal for performance or weight loss is, Build a Better You With Me!

 

The Muscle Elements line of Products.

I have all four of the (Me) products in my hands and plan to put them to the test over the next ten weeks leading up to a trip to Las Vegas for the 50th Mr. Olympia fitness weekend, I will give you a link to each product of them and tell you how I will implement them into my training program starting with the “Grow with me Stack” of Pre Cre and Amino Flow that I will be stacking together for the first four weeks before adding in the “Lean on Me Stack” of 212 + LeanWorks during the final 6 weeks leading up to Las Vegas.

PreCre – Is the Foundation of the Grow with Me stack, from the first glance at the label PreCre is not your run of the mill Pre-Workout, it appears to cover all the bases in a loaded one scoop sugar-free serving that boats an impressive dose of all the key ingredients needed to make up an effective mind and muscle primer.  I expect PreCre to give me a huge boost of energy while helping increase my strength, endurance and stamina along with what I expect to be insane pumps thanks to the very well thought out combination they call “GlycoPump Infusion Elements”  I will use PreCre once a day 30-45 minutes prior to each training session,

AmiNo Flow  – Is the first supplement to qualify as an AmiNo-Oxide product, what that means is it takes the proven and popular building blocks of muscle “Amino Acids” and combines it with Nitric Oxide promoting ingredients that increase vasodilation, promote bigger muscle pumps and assist in nutrient shuttling.  I expect this product will be great to aid in repair and recovery of the muscle, it will help with protein synthesis, muscle hydration and promote an increase of  total working capacity so I will be able to put everything I have into every training session.  I am a BIG believer in Amino Acid powders and plan to take this a minimum of three times per day, one serving as soon as I wake up, one serving during my training session and one serving 30 minutes or so before dinner.

212 – The name says it all…Two Hundred Twelve degrees, the temperature needed to bring water to it’s boiling point and tells you right off the bat that this is Muscle Elements fat incinerator!  Coming from a potent one pill serving 212 aims to increase fat burning and increased energy, it contains the key ingredients to maintain a positive mood while at the same time controlling your appetite and assisting your body in the removal of unwanted/excess water weight.  I won’t add this product into my routine until August 4th but I have handed out samples to my clients and will give you any feedback I get from them prior to my personal experience with it.

LeanWorks –  Is a Non-Stimulant based thermogenic that can be used as a standalone product or be combined with 212 to make up the “Lean on Me Stack”  It contains huge doses of key ingredients that have been backed up time and time again with scientific studies and includes the popular Green Coffee bean, Raspberry Ketones, L-Carnitine and much more.  Like 212 it will help to suppress appetite, Increase mood, act as an herbal diuretic and assist in fat burning.   I will add in LeanWorks at the same time as 212 so until then I will again rely on feedback from my clients and pass their experience with it along to you.

So there you have the line up from Muscle Elements that I will be using,  (Me) hasn’t come into the game with a product in every supplement segment just for the sake of participation, what they have brought to the table are four very exciting and well thought out products that I look forward to testing out.  If you have any detailed questions regarding any of their product line you can contact them through their website or social media channels.
