Wild berry review!!!!

I must agree with him...i've been a big fan of the other two flavors but i believe this one blows the others away.

It tastes...familiar, but i can't place what i believe it tastes like. Very good, nearly makes the other two obsolete (which sucks because i have 4 more tubs in stock of the old flavors).

If you haven't tried intrabolic, i would urge you to start with the wild berry punch flavor, and i also urge you to quit wondering which is the best, because aen just put their foot down.

10/10

Smell: 9/10, very tempting aroma! I wanted to just pour the packet into my mouth and wash it down with some water, but i didn't. I decided to follow the directions instead.

Texture: 10/10, very pleasant, soft and smooth.

Even the color(10/10) of the powder made me anticipate drinking it!

Taste!!!: 10/10! Very enjoyable, not too sweet. I love the fact that there is no bitter aftertaste.

Even though i've only had 1 serving so far, i do feel that it was very effective during today's routine. 10/10 for that, i felt no lack of energy and instead of dropping the number of reps each set (due to fatigue) i was going up or staying right-on!

Thanks again aen and b1ginny82307, after tomorrow i should be able to decide if i can handle an entire tub of this.

First, a big THANKS to Jon, Seb, and all the AEN guys for shipping me out a sample of the newly flavored IntrAbolic. I've been a big believer in IA for a long while now. First going through a few old Apple tubs then moving on to the Citrus, which was my favorite flavor.... until now

My Thoughts:
If you'd like to see what I think about IntrAbolic, check out these links as I've done a unsponsored log and a couple of reviews:

http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=107858101
http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=108582571
http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=108932331

Taste:
Spot on! If I called this anything, it would be Wild Berry Punch. It has the taste of Berries yet the taste of most 'Punch' style drinks as well. There's a slight after taste from what I'd presume is the Hydro Whey, but it does not damper IntrAbolics taste. Of the three, this is obviously my favorite as I like supplements that are flavored in the fruity department( to all you homos). I've been due for a BB.com order and now that this is in stock I'll probably pick up at least one for now.

Awesome work AEN and Thanks!

Wild Berry Feedback!!! Turned this one to a believer!

Well I got my double serving and dumped them both into a shaker mixed with about 22oz water. Shook real good(seemed to mix better than last time..no weird flavor crystals) and let it sit as suggested.

Took my first sip afraid of the taste but soon realized...hey no funny aftertaste, its actually pretty sweet with a nice clean tart after bite. I was able to drink it all down during my workout without any stomach issues... AWESOME! Now get this flavor on Wheycheap!!! Pronto!

Taste: 8.5/10. Maybe could have been a bit more berry flavor but no gripes

Mixing: 10/10..I don't think there was even a small amount of residue that I could see.

Effects: Hard to tell after 1 use but everything seemed to go better this workout than when I had the apple flavor. I think I was able to focus on my workout instead of the taste and let Intra do its job.

I look forward to the Citrus now but I have to warn you....berry is my usual favorite on anything non protein. Also, the AEN guys know that I tell it exactly like it is..if this flavor had sucked, i would have told them like I did for the apple.

moar intrabolic feedback!!

recovery 10/10: This is the key aspect of intrabolic imo. I was able to push hard every workout and was almost always fully recovered by the next day. I was only sore a few times during my log and i give all the credit to intrabolic.

Endurance 9/10: Again ps/intrabolic/intraxcell is a knock out combo for endurance in the gym. Your body never seems to wear down with this stack. If your one to easily tire in the gym you def. Have to give intrabolic a shot.

Taste: 8/10 it took a few workouts to find the right amount of water to mix with intrabolic to get a great taste out of it. I finally found that about 20 oz of ice cold water is the best for taste. I actually look forward to sipping on it now.

Texture: 9/10 very smooth goes down easy. Also, very light on the stomach.

Mixability: 9/10 only a few particles were left after mixing. I usually mixed mine about 40 mins before traning and let it sit in the fridge to chill.

Profile: 11/10 theres no argument here it has the best intra workout profile out there. Intrabolic has everything lifters need to train hard.

Value: 10/10 some people will argue the price is to expensive, but the results and profile make it worth the price. Plus i can't complain i got 4 jugs for 22 bucks a piece

results: 9/10 i can't say enough good things about intrabolic so far i really hope my gains keep coming with this stuff. It feels good when ur gf and friends notice you gained muscle mass quick.

Other thoughts: If anyone really wants to try a new stack i would highly consider aen products they're well developed products with research backing them. Also, the results speak for themselves with aen check any log or review and you will see i'm not the only one who had great gains with these products.

Wild Berry Feedback....coincidence?

the new flavor really exceeded my expectations. it felt like a whole new product it tasted so good. citrus ice is very pleasant to drink.. and wild berry punch is even another step up. at first I couldn't put my finger on a good description of its taste, but towards the end of my workout it hit me: it tastes just like Sweet Tarts (serious).

hate to dis the apple flavor, but such a strong ingredient profile deserves to have flavors as enjoyable as citrus ice and berry punch. nevertheless, enjoyment of flavor depends on the individual and there's no way you can go wrong with IA. from the solid doses of leucine and beta alanine to the peptides in the whey protein hydrosylate, I know I'm covered intraworkout.

seen a lot of presurge vs. (other pre-workout) threads lately so I can contribute here too. just one serving of presurge completely kicks my ass. I usually only take 4 caps cause I'm lighter weight (not for long) and have a very low caffeine tolerance. before cycling off caffeine and using ultima, I was taking 7 caps and having incredible 1.5 hour + workouts. then I tried the stuff again after having no stim tolerance and wow I was amped.
Presurge is great cause you can always tailor the dosing to your sweetspot.
you also get:
3g creapure with russian taragon and glycerol ms to help creatine absorption and give pumps.
patented glycocarn, ICARIIN for better contractions, blood flow, etc., and ALA and grape seed extract as potent antioxidants.
I also like the wild green oat extract as the first stim, 175 mg caffeine isn't too high, plus the phenylethlamine for the tunnel vision focus and evodiamine for the dripping intensity.
I know this practically reads like an advertisement, but it's not. these are effects I have actually felt through a bottle of presurge.
just wait until it's available in powder

Thoughts on IntrAbolic :

With the exception of only a marginal improvement on bench press, my lifts across the board went up considerably on a substantial calorie deficit. I was making good progress on bench until I tweaked my elbow a bit. Really lost some momentum there on the back nine and I?m only now starting to feel ?right? on bench.

I said earlier in the log that IA was the most impactful supp I?ve ever taken. After completing the tub and looking back on the results I reiterate this sentiment?great stuff!

In terms of flavor, I look forward to it every workout day. It must be cold, throw a few ice cubes or leave it mixed in the fridge overnight and it?s awesome.

I stayed extremely true to my diet/macros during the log. I had about 5 cheat meals and had a couple of drinks on two separate occasions during the log. Aside from these needed breaks, I consumed lots and lots of lean protein, good healthy carbs and quality fats.
Currently, I feel I still need to lose at least another 10-15lbs of fat. I had hoped to be ready to bulk at the end of this log. While I?m disappointed that I?m not ready to shift gears, I have to remember to remind myself that less than four months ago I was 35 lbs heavier and around 30%BF. I believe that IA has helped me maintain LBM far better than I would have fared without.

Over the next 30 days I plan to incorporate more low intensity cardio for longer durations and more HIITs. I really only used cardio exercises as a cool down for most of my workouts and did not incorporate enough real cardio throughout. As a result, I believe I really limited my fat loss. With 1-2 more solid cardio sessions per week I think I could have lost another 10 lbs over the last 3+ months and maintained as much LBM.

Would I recommend this supp for someone cutting? In case you couldn?t gather this from my previous comments, the answer is an overwhelming yes, absolutely? Without results, I don?t care how good it tastes. I?m busting my ass in the gym to lose the 40 lbs of fat I put on, and then, to start building my body back up again with lean mass. I felt great sipping IA during my workouts, I had greater endurance and it did not hinder my ability to cut fat. Great job AEN, thanks again for the opportunity to try IntrAbolic on your dime. You?ll be pleased to know I?m keeping it a part of my workouts (on my dime ).

This image was taken before I decided to lose weight, so it wasn?t from this summer, but the summer before. I weighed 205 here, the same thing I weighed when I started working out again on 7/7/09. Therefore, I still feel this is a valid start photo. By the time the log started I had lost about 15 of my 35 lbs.
