Next on the List
Good news bros! We're getting an exclusive preworkout to review, it's called "Dark Energy" by SciFit. I've personally never had anything by this company but everyone on other forums speak vary highly of them so I'm thinking this product is going to be awesome. I'm going out on a limb here with this one though because it's not even available on their website or on bodybuilding.com a few other sites claim to have it, but they seemed a little sketchy and couldn't find any reviews or logs online. Hopefully my package will be in this weekend and I can start playing lab rat for you and all the chill guys at SciFit. Will keep you updated until then Stay Swole Bros!

Hemo Rage Ultra Concentrate Black Official Review
Taste 7/10
Energy 9/10
Focus 10/10
Mixability 9/10
Overall 9/10
The Breakdown
Taste: Nutrex was kind enough to send me a free tub of their preworkout Hemo Rage Black in their "Brusin Berry" flavor, the taste was "ok" not my favorite but I really did like the product so I ordered a second tub on my own and got their "Malicious Melon" (watermelon) flavor and it taste much worse than the berry in my opinion. But keep in mind this is a preworkout and not crystal lite. All in all though it is a tolerable taste and if you mix it with a lot of water you probably wont get much of any flavor.
Energy: I took a full scoop on my Biceps and Triceps day about 30 minutes before I went to the gym. By the time I got there I could feel the effects. It wasn't like pounding down 3 energy drinks and shaking for 4 hours the energy was pretty clean but I have a high caffeine tolerance so some people might experience jitters. After about 2 and a half hours after taking hemo rage I felt the "crash" this was probably the worst product I've taken when it comes to crashing, but it's what I expected from after getting the energy boost the first time. I'm going to keep taking it and hopefully the crashes will be less intense.
Focus: Focus on this product is probably the best feature of this product it gives you the energy boost most people are looking for in a preworkout but this product put me in the zone. I didn't want to stop inbetween sets and talks to a few of my friends at the gym like I usually do, I was in there to get business done. If your having trouble keeping on track in the gym then you should probably check this product out.
Mixability: this is pretty self explanatory I mixed one scoop in a bottle of water and shook it up everything dissolved pretty well except a few vary small white specs that looked like creatine. The second time I took this product I threw a scoop in a glass and mixed it with a spoon and got virtually the same result so however you prefer to prepare your preworkouts you'll be fine.
Final Thoughts: This product is pretty awesome I as far as preworkouts go like I mentioned before I snatched up a second tub while they were doing there free 2lb tub of protein promo. Normally I would have waited until I finished the first tub, but that deal was to good to pass up. Most people are comparing this product to jack3d and I've taken both and I'd say they're about even I didn't notice a whole lot of difference yet except with hemo rage you never have to take more than one scoop according to the label. The price is great and Nutrex really does care about their customers and products. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a new preworkout I've had a good experience with it so far.

Nutrex Followup
Yesterday I went to my university to sign up for this semesters classes and when I got home I seen my package from Nutrex had came in the mail. Being pretty amp'd about it I knew I had to rip into the box and try Hemo-Rage out It came in "malicious melon" which is there superchill way to say watermelon. When I first opened it the smell was great and it looked pretty full a little more than 3/4 and if you take supplements thats almost to the rim! I decided I was going to do a late night chest sesh at my gym so I called my bro up and of corse he was game. I mixed 1 scoop into a half empty bottle of water and it mixed in no problem no chunks not much settling. I pound it down as if I had just been iced and it went down pretty smooth the initial taste was pretty good the after taste was pretty shitty but it's a preworkout if you want something to taste delicious go buy snapple or something.
I get to the gym and start off with a little dumbbell press then move to incline, decline, incline flys, and cable flys to end my workout. it went pretty smooth I increased the weight slightly on a few exercises with little struggle. I was feelin pretty good but nothing over the top like I was when I took jack3d the first time or the first time I took NO Xplode back when that was top of the line before BSN decided to keep there decent preworkout 3x the price of all its much more effective competition. Now before you go thinking that this product wasnt all that it's cracked up to be keep in mind that I spent all day walking around campus had little food, and was running on less than 7 hours of sleep. Then to top it off I did one of my hardest workouts of the week, so even though the product didn't blow me away the first time I took it I don't feel like I gave it a fair shot. I'm going to take it again today when I lift legs and hopefully I'll get a better feel for the product.
Also Nutrex was badass enough to include a 2lb tub of their protein Muscle Infusion Black they sent me their chocolate flavor and I tried a scoop after my workout the taste was incredible it was sort of like Muscle Milk by CytoSport with less fat and not as thick. It did look like nesquick in the container and not as light colored as other chocolate proteins I've had in the past but it did taste and mixed up amazing so hopefully it works as well as it tastes. I'll keep you posted later bros stay chill.

Hemo-Rage Ultra Concentrated
Today I was browsing the forums at Bodybuilding.com and noticed a Rep from Nutrex Research was looking for people to review their new preworkout Hemo-Rage UC Just in time for me to snatch up right before I go back to school I did some research on the product and it looks pretty chill everything I'm looking for in a preworkout this product has. So I contacted the rep and he quickly got back to me letting me know he shipped it today So be on the lookout for my next review on Hemo-Rage UC the guys at Nutrex are chill as fuck they always take care of their costumers I've personally taken Lipo 6 Black made by them and it was outstanding Felt great while taking it so I can only imagine what this product will do for me.
on a side note you'll notice that this site moves a little slower than most other review sites thats because I'm a one person team working closely with the companies who make these products. It's not easy getting my hands on a lot of supplements at once considering most companies require me to run their product by itself so I can usually only run one product at a time which is good for you guys because you get a solid review of only one product by itself. Next if you like the way I presented my previous review and thought this is a pretty chill blog and are looking for more bro news outside of Suplementsforbros.com then you can head over to my other blog I created as a misc style bro blog that I tend to update more frequently. You can check that out and follow it at http://sochillnews.blogspot.com/

Had a pretty good workout tonight considering the lack of sleep I've gotten the past couple days. I'll be able to sleep in tomorrow and get back on track. This is mostly what my Arms workout looks like maybe swaping out one exercise for another to change it up. Sometimes when I have more time I throw in 5 exercises instead of only 4 but I went pretty heavy and was impressed usually my sets look like 3x10x8/6 but I was able to push 2 more reps out on a few of the exercises today. So pretty happy with how today went so far have nothing negative to say about this product.
As far as mood goes There wasn't much change besides going from kind of sluggish to more alert. Which isn't a bad thing because I felt fine all day but as far as anger or aggression I haven't felt anything like that If anything I would say slightly more excited after consumption, but it's only my 2nd dosage so we'll see after we get a week or so in.
