Clear Muscle by MuscleTech :The Review

By now just about everyone has heard about the newest supplement by MuscleTech called CLEAR MUSCLE. When I first heard of it I was like, Now that's something I would like to try. And then I signed up to test and review products and got this. Wow! I said to myself, " I'm not going to let this opportunity pass me by!" So I put this to the test and I mean "THE TEST!" And to my amazement it did exactly what MuscleTech says it does.

Clear Muscle got it's name from the liquid and the capsule which is also clear. And the muscle part is from keeping your body in an anabolic state through the absorption and synthesis of protein. Clear Muscle is a free acid derivative from Leucine and HMB.

Now let's get to the test that I put it through. There were several: Taking it and doing nothing, taking it and working out without the added protein and then taking it and working out heavy with lots of protein.

The first test showed very little results which was expected.

The second test I noticed some gains and a little definition.

The third test had the greatest results. I noticed a huge difference in strength, muscle mass.

What I got from doing these tests are: the harder you workout and have the ample amount of protein this supplement will help you achieve what you want. But with everything results will very from person to person. If you don't believe me, then try it for yourself.

I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who wants to add muscle and get stronger both male and female.

Protein Review: ISOLATE BUILD by Fuel:One

Its time again for another protein review and this time it's Isolate Build from Fuel:One a new brand that is sold at www.gnc.com and in the stores.

Isolate Build is 100% pure protein isolate. 0grams of fat and 0grams of sugar 20grams of 4 different protein isolates (Hydrolyzed Beef Protein Isolate, 97% Whey Protein Isolate, Whey Protein Isolate, Hydrolyzed Whey Protein Isolate) branch chain amino acids, glutamine, and leucine.

Isolate Build comes in 2 different flavors (Vanilla Caramel, Rich Chocolate) my favorite is the Vanilla Caramel. It tastes just like it says, and it has natural flavors.

I have been using this for about 2 weeks and I noticed a big difference. I gained 4 pounds, noticed that my muscles got bigger as well.
The Isolate Build is easy to blend. And is easy on the stomach. I take this between meals, before and after workouts as well.

I would definitely recommend this product to friends and family. You definitely get what you pay for with this product. The retail price for this product $79.99 at gnc. If you have the gold card its $69.99.

Some workout ideas that are outside the box.

We've all been there... You go to the gym, start your workout routine and notice that you are getting bored with the routine.  But don't know how to switch things up to make it more challenging and fun. One thing is certain. Doing the same exercise over a period of time your body and it's muscles get used to it and you reach a plateau. Switching up the exercises and doing different variants of the exercises will keep things challenging and fun.

There are many different ways to keep things challenging and here are a few ways.

Add a stability ball to your bench press with dumb bells. By doing this, it makes you focus on your balance by keeping your abs tight and helps you with your form.

Use water jugs to simulate dumb bells. The water moving in the water jugs adds added movement where you concentrate on the movement of the exercise.

Here's a favorite of mine... add a deck of cards. The numbers 1-9  equals 5 reps. 10, Jack, Queens, and Kings equals 10 reps. And the Queen of Hearts equals 25 reps.  Aces equals 15 reps.Then the Jokers equals 45 reps. You can use this with any weightlifting and crossfit exercises or any exercises period.

Those are just some of the different things to make your exercises more challenging and exciting. If you need help with any ideas ask someone at the gym. They will be glad to help and have been where you are. All it takes is just a little thinking and your out of the box. Until next time,  stay fit and stay healthy.

Pre-Workout Review: Hemo Rage Black Ultra Concentrate by Nutrex Research

I want to take the time to do a review on a pre-workout instead of a weight gainer or protein powder. I chose to review HEMO RAGE BLACK by Nutrex Research. First and foremost I have to say that this product is extreme due to the amount of ingredients in preworkout.  And I cannot stress enough to read the WHOLE LABEL! The directions say to use one scoop 30 to 40 minutes before working out. And that only one scoop can be used in a 24hr period. Andthe first couple of times you use this productuse a 1/4 to 1/2 scoop. Believe me.. this product is not for the feint at heart literally..

The first time I used this pre-workout I used 1/2 of a scoop. Within a few minutes I noticed a rush with a slight flushness to my skin which was from the Nitric Oxide and caffeine anhydrous. I also noticed that I was extremely focused as well. While I was lifting I had to go heavy on the weights too. Then that's when the serious muscle pump began. I have never expected this pre-workout to do this. Everytime I use this to workout I totally own the weights and the exercises! But I have to "STRESS" that this pre-workout is like no other and if you have any medical problems like cardiovascular, high blood pressure,  thyroid issues and so on. All of this is in the fine print on the label as well.

Here are some of the key ingredients: L-Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate, Acetyl-L-Tyrosine, Taurine,  Creapure 100% Ultra Pure  Concentrated Creatine Monohydrate,  Caffeine Anhydrous, Mucuna Pruriens, Paullinia Cupana, and Advantra Z (Citrus Aurantium).

For those people who can use this pre-workout,  this will definitely take you to a whole extremely different level!  So use caution. Ok.

I definitely recommend this pre-workout to those who can use it. But at the same time I wouldn't recommend this pre-workout to those who have; high blood pressure, thyroid disease and or taking curtain types of medication. With that in mind, people have different resaults with any product.

Here are a few links where you can find this pre-workout at:

If you are looking for a pre-workout that will take you over the edge...  Well, you found it!

As with anything you take,  do your research and read the label (the WHOLE THING) and dont skim over it.

Until next time, stay fit and healthy!
