supposed to be 10oz water/scoop... but you'll probably want to use a bit more water.
went with 20oz/2scoop and the taste was pretty strong......and it's not exactly fruit punch...
well, it is sort of fruit punch, but somehow reminded me of "big red" (chewing gum).

I think i'll go with 15oz/1 scoop for the next 2 weeks and see how things go.

training (deadlift)
because of the strong taste, spitted alot.
set a PR (by 5kg) but I wouldn't say it's from surge.
unfortunately, ran out of time, but yea, i was prepared for 'more'

...just put whatever you want in the shopping cart and you'll get the cost including the shipping on paypal, before finalizing the transaction.

day 2.
used 1 scoop/20oz water.
tastes better...

drank too much water before training... became a problem at the of the session, i need to control this a bit.
pushed the pace a bit, and there was no problem.

i can probably add a set or two without increasing the total time.

That was by Art Devany right? It wasn't really an apples to apples comparison.

that's surge RECOVERY.
in any case, I already tried milk... if you can drink lots of milk everyday, then it may work for you.
unfortunately, it resulted in too much lost time.

and it's not really the thing i wanted to drink right after lifting.

there really was no strength gain to speak of during the period, but it's NOT because i drank milk...
i'll just say having to stay close to the bathroom 1/3 of the time probably didn't help.

btw, it was browne's chocolate/mocha/coffee milk.
they come in small packs, and tastes pretty good.

they also have milk shakes that contains whey.

squat + press.
i sucked, but i suck at squat.

it does seem to be easier to go from set to set than drinking just water or 100plus. (but can't be certain)

haven't been updating this... i guess i can't keep more than 1 log updated consistently.
in any case, 1 scoop/20oz (or more water) seems about right. now i think that it actually tastes pretty good.

haven't been measuring rest periods (doesn't seem that important right now), but it definitely has been shorter since i started taking this.
