Just hanging out here waiting for how Mr. Hyde hits you all. Dare you fuckers to guzzle a full scoop in less than 10 minutes while smoking a cigar.

 

I usually take my pwo scoops straight to the dome then a sip of water. How many scoops of Hyde should I take?

 

I wanna try Pre Jym, but it's so expensive. I need to cycle off pre for a month or so too b/c I am 100% dependent

I'd start out at 1/2 or 3/4 scoop. Go ahead and do a full scoop just to see what it's capable of. It's intense. I take mine the same way as you. I mix a scoop with a tsp of creatine and put it in a shot glass lol

 

I haven't found a pre yet that doesn't make me have to take a shit right after I take it.

 

you're not alone, brother. Doesn't do it to me, but it's a common problem for a lot of folks, judging by the amount of discussion on it in various forums and the number of memes

 

This.

 

I work with many overweight people and they cannot wrap their head around this. I always so "its easy, eat more good food than bad food each day and lift 4x/week. Add in some cardio if u have time"

If u truly do that and dont destroy 6 days of discipline by having a 20,000 calorie "cheat weekend" every week, the weight has no choice but to come off (or stay off). Zero rocket science in this.

 

I deal with the same type of folks where I work. I'm with you 10000%

 

True but it's also about portion control Even with good food. You can easily go way overboard on intake no matter what it is.

A good example is people think at my job smoothies are so good for you and they'll belt down 4 a day plus their usual 3 meals. Not gonna work as well with 400 or more calories per.

 

Honestly, find a bulk source for your raw ingredients.
I have in bulk :
It costs a little more to start but me and the wife share it. ITs been 5 months now on 200$ order.

HMB

Zink
Magnesium

It literally takes me about 5 min to mix my formula up every day. The nice thing is, i get to pick and choose what and how much for that days work out.

 

Exactly. You'll gain weight if you eat more than your maintenance. Whether it be clean food or junk food.

 

My "secret" was just cut out the junk. But that junk was 2-3 big bottles of soda a day for many many years and the 2-3 candy bars a day at work just being bored.

I get it though. My wife gets bullshit and is insanely jealous of me.

 

Yea whenever I'm dieting, I NEVER drink my calories. Except whey. It allows me to eat more food that way.

 

I want to order Mr. Hyde, but the previous preworkout I used had half of the caffeine that Mr. Hyde has. That kinda worries me.

 

Same here mostly, except a soda on dart night..and the occasional energy drink but I'm pulling back on those.

 

Same with Subway. People think, just because they eat there, the footlong bacon and meatball sub is magically good for them

That's a lot of damn work for a pre-workout and not very cost efficient. Mr. Hyde is .93 per scoop. 4 times a week, that's 3.72/wk. 3.72 a week for a month is 14.88. 14.88 per month for a year is 178.56.

 

You'll have to times that by 2 since he shares it with his wife. The benefit is knowing exactly what goes in it and tailoring the preworkout to yourself. You could add or lower the ingredients when you need it. You can't cut Mr. Hydes caffeine in half without theoretically cutting the other ingredients in 1/2.

 

True that. It definitely has it's benefits, but they're just not worth it to me. I already spend about 30 mins each night prepping food...I don't want to waste any more time on measuring shit than I absolutely have to.

this x 1345654. Same with losing weight. You can eat ice cream and Snickers bars and lose weight, as long as you're eating at a caloric deficit, but you'd be done eating at 11 am though. The reason I switch to cleaner foods on a cut is because it's filling and not very calorie-dense. 2 cups of spinach is like 20 calories where 2 cups of peanut butter is probably like 3000 calories. For instance, yesterday: I ate that damned fried chicken at lunch and basically starved for the rest of the day b/c I had to cut so much shit out to make up for the consumed calories.

 

Had two glasses of wine last night before going out to dinner with my girlfriend for our anniversary. Hopped in the shower to get cleaned up to go out. Puked in the toilet for five minutes and ended up just ordering take out. Weirdest thing ever.

 

Lightweight bitch.

Just kidding, I've had weird nights like that before too
