Oh, per month? Less, probably closer to $75.

You also have to consider that my GF also bogarts a lot of the Muscle Milk and splits the multivitamins.

Hrm....the front squat to overhead press combo leaves a lot to be desired. I was wrong about being worred about my wrists, they felt fine. Instead, my legs were completely drained, and I had near non-existent leg drive. Next week, I'll reverse the lifts, though I do wanna squat more.

I was gonna comment and review the Orange-flavored Cytomax tonight after working out, but I'll comment about it a little bit here.

My very first impressions weren't good. I thought it tasted like ass initially. I mixed it into a Pre-Workout drink, but it was really dilute. Normally, gatorade powder, a tiny bit of whey, and Greens+ are the primary flavors in my pre-workout cocktail and it's bearable. Equal amounts of cytomax made it taste like foot fungus.

My peri-workout drink was fairly pleasant though. The orange taste isn't that artificial orange flavor, instead it's a bit closer to the real deal, sorta like bootleg, artificially flavored Minute Maid (vs. fresh squeezed OJ, which is different from Minute Maid imo!). When shaken, it gets quite frothy, but its' not a big deal.

My latest Post-workout concoction is quite possibly the greatest Post-Workout drink ever. I was running late on Saturday, and wanted to head to the gym, so I kinda haphazardly through ingredients together: 1 scoop Cytomax, couple tablespoons of my sugar mix, OATS!, whey and 2 large spoonfuls of yogurt. I blended that shit down, and was surprised by the volume. Remember what I said about the Cytomax being frothy? Well, put it into a blender and a you're liable to get Mt. Krakatoa. Anyways, I was a bit leary of the stuff, and after lifting, I decided to chug it down. Holy shit, it tasted awesome. I'm serious when I say that it tasted exactly like Orange Bang.

thanks erco. my shakes become frothy as well. after a few minutes it seperates to form like a foam on top. much like a good stout develops a thick head of foam. i've noticied it is even more pronounced now that i switched from ON whey to hydrolyzed whey. hmmm.

I think i still have a healthy supply of gatorade, but when i finish that off, i think i'll switch to cytomax. either that or I'm going to start halfing my gatorade and adding either dextrose or malto in (or both).
