Currently I am taking Animal cuts/pak/nitro with a Post workout shake and a casein protein at night. Once i run out of my current post workout protein i plan to switch over to Universal torrent. I also want to take something before i workout such as pump or storm but i cant figure out which one would be better. While browsing at work i found a good article somewhere but have yet to find it since. Could anyone give me a run down on the difference please. If it helps I am also thinking about taking intra-aid during my workouts. One more thing not sure if it matters but i workout at 5:45am.

The main difference between Pump/Shock Therapy and Storm, is that Storm is creatine blend. Pump and Shock Therapy are NO energizer pre workout supplements with a small amount of creatine in them. Many people use either ST or Pump along with Storm or a creatine mono.

As for the difference, Pump is a comprehensive pre-workout pack that covers your creatine and N.O. needs... It produces great pumps, focus, and a slow steady sustained energy. Storm is predominately a creatine product... A product that would be more like Pump would be Shock Therapy... And the difference between it and Pump, is that Shock Therapy gives you an intense burst of energy vs. the slow steady rate of Pump... Then it comes down to whether you prefer pill or powder... Hope this helps...

Would the st/storm combo replace the need for torrent?

Torrent still gives you carbs and protein, as well as the creatine... Definitely needed post-workout...

No, the torrent is mainly a carb/protein drink with some creatine.

personally I think storm should be taken intra work out. If u mix anything with Torrent i think it should me some glutamine. but that is just my opinion. Doing this way seems to work better for me.

Any other input fellas for R2
