Last week on friday was the first time I used animal pump on my shoulders day. I didn't want to make any full judgements then. However, my energy, focus and strength had definitely been higher that day and I felt this weird sensation throughout my body. I guess most people describe it as a 'tingling' sensation. I couldn't realize much of an extra pump in my shoulders but my traps felt as if they were gonna explode at one point. So I definitely enjoyed the product on my first day, and it really gave me that extra boost and kick.
So I was looking forward to today'sworkout since it was my chest/tri day. And today was probably the shitest workout I ever had and animal pump didn't do shit for me today...
No energy, no extra focus, no extra stength and no extra pumps whatsoever.
What I don't understand is that it was a perfect working supplement the first day I tried it and today it did jack ALL.Also, I did make sure that I had it on an empty stomach. I had my pre-workout meal 1.5 hours before my workout and I took the pills 1 hour after my food.
However, I did drink about half a litre or more of water after taking the pills. So maybe that had some effect? But then again, you need to down the pills with water anyway so I don't see how that could really have any effect...It might also be important to note that I'm not taking the pump everyday. I take animal pump on my workout days and general creatine monohydrate on my off-days.
Anyway, is this a common scenario. That is works wonders at first and then it does nothing? Some have stated that it takes a week before it fully kicks in. But the thing is it already did kick in for me but today there was nothing...
