Okay, so I'm a junior in college studying finance. I started to work out in high school but got really into it when I got to college....this year more than any other year. Currently I am cutting from 200lbs to about 165lbs for my schools bodybuilding competition. As I stated above, I wanna come in at around 3% bodyfat. Only 4 more weeks of dieting!! Sure hope this Stim X gives me the edge i'm looking for.


8:45am
Woke up and really excited for the first day. Weighed myself at the apartment and was the lightest i've been in like 3 years. Made breakfast (the biggest of my 6 meals) and popped 1 capsule of the Stim X. So far, so good...got class at 10 but i'll report back.

11:00am
Eating meal 2 now. Still feeling pretty good. I feel awake and alert. ThinkI might have a 2nd dose pre-workout...we'll see how I feel then.

3:00pm
Still feeling good after a day of a couple classes and a meeting. Just finished my 3rd meal and gonna head to the gym in about 30min. I'm feelin hyper and ready to hit the gym hard. I'm taking my second dose of Stim X (1 capsule) Lets see how back day goes!!!

5:00pm
Pretty good day at the gym. Felt amped throughout my workout. Also seemed like a constant flow of energy. My lifting partner described some of the stuff I was doing between sets as goofy but all in all it was a fun day at the gym. Here's what my lifts looked like today...

Monday (back day)


pull-ups total of 50

BB bent over rows (usually at 225 but since i did pull-ups, started lower)
205 x 8
205 x 8
205 x 7

210 x 7
200 x 6

200 x 6

8:00pm
Had my 5th meal about a half hour ago. I'm def. not as hyper or jumpy as earlier but never the less, I'm still feeling good. I seem to still have energy to do things which is cool b/c this is normally the time I start to die down and get lazy. Whatever, maybe it's just the higher carb day. On the weekends, I go very low on carbs so come monday, my body is loving the extra carbs. Well, since I'm still goin, I might as well get some hw out of the way.

p.s. I don't think i'm going to be able to get pics up tonight, but sometime this week, they should be up.

3:30pm
Just finished with class and now eating my 3rd meal of the day. Plan to have my 2nd dose (1 cap.) of Stim after eating. So far today i've been a little tired but i believe its just from the lack of sleep and then starting the day with cardio. All in all, the Stim seems to be doing good keeping me going. Gonna head to the gym within the hour. Shoulders and Abs today....should be a good day.

6:15pm
got back from the gym about 15min ago and i'm ready to eat. Although i was a little tired, i still had an okay day at the gym. I think that 2nd dose of Stim X might have helped me get through my workouts today. Here's what today looked like...

So far, I have been having a good response to Stim X. I have noticed tho that I seem to always be warm. Just doing minimal activity will have me breakin a sweat. Whatever, big chest day manana.

FANTASTIC job...excellent tester!


I can only suggest, if you'd like, to try stim-x at 2 caps first thing in the morning with food. This will most likely produce a few cold shills, you'll feel "shocked" for the first hour or so, after that you will have a steady stream of energy and focus. This is the case with many other reviews and testers. Feel free to mix the dosage, stack, with or without food, increase to 2/1 caps. Do as you'd like and find what's best!

Keep up the great work.

9am
So i'm one week into using the Stim X. I have so far enjoyed using it. I feel a constant stream of energy when i take it first thing in the morning and then when I have my 2nd dose right before working out, it gives me that extra kick i need. For me, I find dosing it 1 capsule, 2 times per day works best. I do plan on trying different doses in the near future tho. On the down side, I often feel crabby. I truly dont believe this is the Stim X but it very well may be. Also, I sometimes notice the chills coming on. I haven't got the chills yet to where its unbareable , just to the point where it has been uncomfortable. They only seemed to last a short period. (less than 5min.) So, got up and made breakfast. Had my first dose of Stim immediatley after i ate. My weight in the mornings has been the same now for a while. I'm hoping a i'll be able to drop this come competition time. Only 25 days left!!!!

5:45pm
took 1 cap. of Stim around 3:30 and went to the gym around 4pm. Before I went, I stopped in at the ATP lab and had a BF% test done. I was 4.58% @ 173lbs. Not where I wanna end up but happy none the less. The guy working there was confused b/c his records show that I was 200lbs only 8 weeks ago. HAHA okay, so back to business, here was my back day today. About the same as last week.
