Agent O Capsule Testers:
On a scale of 1-10 what would you rank the following effects from Agent O:
--Overall energy - 7/10
--Quickness of energy kicking in - 5/10
--Duration of energy - 8/10
--Focus - 7/10
--Intensity - 7/10
--Performance - 7/10
--Fatigue - 8/10
--Strength - 8/10

Overall with having the pleasure of doing both the powder and pill version of the product, my vote would go to the powder version. Due to how this product is intended to be used, the powder kicks in quicker and lasts the whole session. Granted the pills are more convenient to take but don't kick in quick enough and I found they didn't kick in till halfway through the session. To me the taste wasn't the deciding factor although Phase II tasted a hell of a lot better, it was the energy kick for me that was the deciding factor.

My vote is split on this one, but if I was going to buy a finished product it would be the powder.

As I was just getting back into heavy lifting I couldn't tell if there were any PR's as everyday is a new PR right now. I felt like this stuff was great at staving off soreness and Fatigue during the workout and after. I'm a few workouts into no Agent O and I can tell a 60-70% less drive or Focus that I had while on it.

I could feel it once it kicked in but it took about 30 + minutes to get any effects from it and I can't say it was always consistent. That could have been based on the amount of water I took with it or possibly how I scheduled my food, not really sure because I tried several different combinations. I will say that 30-45 minutes before the gym, taking it on an empty stomach and with about 12-16 oz of water seemed to get the most out of it for me.

As I said in my Log, I did not get very much of an energy kick from it. I handle stims pretty well, and I'm not even sure Agent O has any, but I did not get any kind of burst of energy from it. I could not compare it to the kind of kick I get from pump or ST, or even Kwik Energy. Maybe it's not supposed to but if it is, it was very weak in the pill form.

Overall great product that kept me focused and able to recover for the next session.

My strength did increase slightly along with some endurance as well. I did make a few PR's on O, Flat barbell bench- 275x6, Leg press- 1250, barbell curls- 135x6
I never had the chance to test the powder form but the pills did their job. After the second day though I felt that they lost some of their effectiveness. By dumping 4 pills in my preworkout shake I felt it much quicker and much more potent.

I was honestly not real impressed with the capsules.. I felt it took too long and was absorbed to slowly. There was no sudden intense focus or intensity as most people had with the powder. But... I did take about half of the doses I had out of the capsules and poured into a small bottle of water. Taste was terrible but you could basically put 9's and 10's on every catagory above. This is an AWESOME product and I will definately buy it when it becomes available. But, only as a powder. Having it as a capsule would be more convienent, but it kills the effects too much.
Maybe this could be put in those little sticks that seem to be becoming so popular. This would make it convienent to throw in your gym bag and to take, but still keep the potency of the powder.

Thanks again to Universal / Animal for letting me be a tester.

Didn't experience any records or anything like that nature. I tried taking the capsules regularly and dumping them into my water bottle and slamming it down, both of which produced the same results, which weren't really anything.

I think this is an issue with the caps, because Rob gave me a packet of the powder at an ABC, and that's when I felt the focus and intensity that everyone had been talking about, and ultimately static held 855, and deadlifted 495x4, both of which were either weight or rep PRs.

Thanks again for the opportunity to try this product; I feel that the powder would be a more viable choice to eventually release to the market.

The Powder

Overall Energy: In short, through the roof. I had a great feeling of energy from beginning to end of training with no crash from excessive stims................9.5/10

Quickness of energy kicking in: Within 15-20 minutes I was feeling the effects. I love the initial kick in teeth from Agent O ..................10/10

Duration of Energy: I felt the effects long after I leave the gym then tapers off - no crash! .................10/10

Focus: Better than ever. I've never used a supplement that made me focus on my sets and reps like Agent O................9.5/10

Intensity: Driven. Determined. I felt compelled and ready to lift more weight and more reps while on Agent O. When I was finished with a set, an exercise, or even the training session, I wanted more. I literally craved the torture I put myself through in the gym................10/10

Fatigue: What fatigue? Even with a crappy day at work my mood and outlook completely changed when I took Agent O................10/10

Strength: Better than ever. I think with the combination of increased focus and intensity I was able to lift more weight per training session................9.8/10

Personal Records: I set a deadlift PR at my meet on October 30 (during my first run with Agent O). I pulled 610 to set a WABDL FL State record for 242 Class 1 men. During Round 2, I set PRs on bench (410) and 3-board presses (455), as well as other rep PRs.

Flavor/Taste: The flavor of Agent O during the first round was certainly not the best I've ever had. Results always outweigh flavor to me, though. However, Animal had made some definite improvements to the flavor for the 2nd round. Using just a small amount of water to mix it in made the flavor a bit overwhelming. With the improved flavor, 8-10oz water seemed to be perfect................7/10


The Capsules

Overall Energy: Not bad. I definitely felt more energy with the powder. I also had to take more than the recommended 7 pills to achieve the effects of the powder...............7/10

Quickness of energy kicking in: The energy gradually kicked in and gradually tapered off. Still no crash, but I like the kick from the powder much better ..................6.5/10

Duration of Energy: I still felt the effects long after I leave the gym then tapers off - no crash! .................10/10

Focus: Better than ever. I've never used a supplement that made me focus on my sets and reps like Agent O................9.5/10

Intensity: Decent. I saved the powdered form for my heavy days because I knew the pill form did not affect me as much................8.8/10

Fatigue: The capsule form still gave a great boost and kept on working throughout my training sessions. ................9.8/10

Strength: After setting PRs and lifting more weight for more reps, I'd say Agent O helps................9.8/10



Agent O is some great stuff. I like the convenience of the capsules, but the powder (regardless of flavor) seemed to work better for me. The recommended 7 capsules were not enough. I am by no means a stim junkie, but 10-11 pills worked better. I know Animal is known for the 'packs' of pills and/or capsules, but I think Agent O needs to be sold as a tub of powder with a scoop. I am convinced that Agent O is the best pre-training supplement out there.

Thanks again for the opportunity to test such an awesome product.

Thanks for the feedback so far. In case anyone has missed posting up their final feedback, you have until Friday of next week to get it in. We'll be looking at the data and make some decisions in the new year about the direction of Agent O.

God Bless.
