    SuperPump 250 I got the fruit punch flavor of SuperPump250. I'm not a big fan of fruit punch, but I thought I was ordering Blue Raspberry and it turned out to be fruit punch. It didn't taste that great to me, but if you're a fan of Fruit Punch you'd probably enjoy it. It was very sour and tasted sugary, even though I don't think there's sugar in it. The energy and pump I got from it was nice though. I dosed at 2 servings per workout and felt some added focus before hitting the gym. I do think that it does a good job delivering the pump, which is what it's supposed to do.

    The only problem I had with it was there were a few unpleasant trips to the bathroom. Not really unpleasant, it's probably actually good for you to do, but uncontrollable which made it suck. Apparently the old formula was EVEN WORSE in this department, so I'm glad I never tried that formula.

    I think I definitely would have enjoyed this better if I had gotten a better flavor, but SuperPump250 really is one of the best in the category. Outside of RPM and NO Shotgun, it's probably some of the best pumps I've had from a supplement.

    RPM RPM is one of my favorite products of all time. It is the reason that I have become an online representative of Applied Nutriceuticals. My review is based on experience with the product long before I became affiliated with the company though. I received a sample of the product from the company and took it according to the directions at 5 caps. I noticed intense focus and and alpha male feeling my first day in the gym. I truly felt like I was better than everyone else in the gym. My aggression was way up, and my power felt much more raw in the gym. I threw weights around, and made very nice gains through the course of one bottle. My pump was always intense, focus was great, strength ended up going up, and it also helped me cut some unwanted fat.

    If you haven't looked into this product, I strongly urge you to do so. While I've seen a few people say it didn't do much for them, many people seem to think it's just as good as I do.

    ZMA I bought some SNAC ZMA pills and started my stack. I loved it. On days that I was off Somnidren-GH (you cycle off 5 on-2 off to keep from building up tolerance) I still slept like a baby, and I always got hit with a wave of sleepiness soon after taking SNAC ZMA. For the most part while I was on SNAC ZMA I was eating a high number of calories and bulking and I got great strength gains over the month. 90% of the time my recovery was flawless also.

    Definitely quality stuff. I'm going to use it again, probably make it a staple, but I definitely intend on logging SNAC ZMA Nightcap at some point in the near future as well.

    ZMA is a simple product. I don't buy into the test boosting abilities of it, so my review is based purely on the sleep benefits of ZMA. I slept like a baby while using it, and have noticed it's harder to go to sleep, and I feel less rested when I am not using it.

    2 Shredded While I can't say exactly how long I took 2Shredded, I can assure you it was long enough for my review to be very in depth. While I went through a few different thermogenics last semester, 2Shredded was definitely the one I spent the most time with. I still have a good amount of 2Shredded left, and I plan on using it, I will touch on that later.

    2Shredded seemed like a solid product for me. I ran it solo for most of the time I was on it (along with the basics of course).

    I will say that I saw better results on a stack of Lean Xtreme and Prolab Thermo Fire, but I never tried 2Shredded with Lean Xtreme so that comparison seems unfair.

    2Shredded was a solid product, and while I have no way of measuring bodyfat losses or anything through last semester, the mirror definitely told me I had lost a decent amount of weight.

    Energy Boost: 7/10 Gave me a pretty good kick, not as powerful as other things I've used, but this isn't the key point of the supplement.

    Thermogenic Effects: 8/10 I thought that I felt a great amount of thermogenic effects on this product. My body heat was up while taking it.

    Cost: 6/10 The cost on this product can go either way. One dose a day and it lasts over a month of workouts. Two servings a day like suggested and it's a 3 week supplement.

    Overall I think it's a pretty good supplement. Because of the diuretic properties I may use it in the future, mainly as a jump start for a cut as I think it would help control water weight which is easier to take care of when you're first started to try and shred out.

    SizeOn Taste: 8/10, there are better tasting things out there in my opinion, but to say it didn't taste good would be a lie. I really enjoyed my workouts that I mixed it with Purple Wraath, which is weird because i didn't think I would enjoy a lemon-grape flavor. No complaints about the taste.
    Mixability: 8/10, I felt like it mixed good most of the time, but sometimes there would be clumps that just wanted to fight with me. Overall there were no problems worth mentioning.
    Ingredient Profile: 10/10, without a doubt, I don't think there's anything that could be added to a creatine formula to make it better.
    Effectiveness: 10/10, on a cut I was still able to gain muscle and strength. I plan on trying this product again when I'm bulking to really unleash it's potential.
    Lives up to label claims, y/n?: Yes, and then some!

    Overall: I've used a lot of different creatines, and this one has to be one of my favorites, if not my favorite. I feel like it would have been even more effective if I was bulking, which is scary because it was damn effective even while I was on a cut. I put on some muscle size and strength while I was on this, and even though I'm finished with my tub, I haven't lost any of it. I can't recall ever feeling any bloat or anything. My workouts were intense, and I got some crazy pumps while I was using SizeON. I love the combination of creatine and GMS, as I respond really well to both.

    Like I said in the beginning, I really can't think of anything negative to say about SizeOn, and will definitely be picking some more up in the future.
