Driven Sports Lean Xtream & Adrenalean Stack (Sponsored By Predator Nutrition)

Guys I have been lucky enough to be selected by Predator Nutrition to run the Driven Sports stack.
These products are both new to me so Iv had a quick read up on them and so far have found out:
 
Lean Xtream
This contains a prop blend 395mg of:
 
Green Tea Extract 50% (EGCG) – this help keep the immune system strong which IMO is important whilst cutting as lower cals and additional cardio will put your body under pressure. This im sure is as a result of the absorbic acid it contains (or Vit C to you and me). Its also said to increase fat oxidisation/loss.
 
Coleus Forskohlii (40% Forskolin), - this increases blood flow due to its vasodilator properties. It increases test and helps weight loss leaning you out. It also improves the levels of camp which is a signal carrier.
 
5-AT (7-Hydroxy 17B-Dihydro Dehydroepiandrosterone ), I only found a small amount of info on this saying it supports the thyroid and lower stress levels – this has a knock on effect to cortisal control which again helps with fat loss
 
7OH (7-Hydroxy-Dehydroepiandrosterone) – from what I can tell this is similar to DHEA but is said to be more effective. DHEA is a natural PH produced by the adrenal gland (autocrine mechanisum- not sure what this is). From my reading this is a precursor to androstenedione, test and estrogen??? 7 - Keto is claimed to be safer as it does not convert to test or estrogens but I can not find out what this means for 7OH in this product? Also I don’t know if this would be safe for a woman to use either?

This is a non stim based product so I will be dosing this throughout the day.
 
Overall all the ingredients look promising and I’m hoping good synergy between them will help shed some fat.
 
Adrenalean
 
I have found contradicting information on the ingredients for this product, which is a little strange but this could just be different websites calling ingredients different things.
 
Anyhow going from Preds site:
 
Euphpramine prop blend of 710mg:
 
Phenylethylamine – mainly a stimulant. But also a good mood supporter and helps with weight loss. This is also found in foods like chocolate so Im assuming that the feel good factor of eating such foods is what this will make you feel. However this usually does not survive the first pass and so significant concentrations reaching the brain which leads me to the next ingredient…………
 
Quercitin – This has many uses but the main ones I think its found itsway into this product are its ability to inhibit CYP3A4, WHICH ARE THE ENZYMES THAT BREAK DOWN MOST DRUGS IN THE BODY. This would in theory allow more of the above ingredient to survive thus making it useful. This also has a strong antioxidant activity and Vit C sparing abilities.
 
Hordinine – I stuggeled on this one… Its linked to Phenylethylamine and found in cactuses.
 
Methylarecaiden – found in the fruit of palm trees it appreas to be another mood enhancer and stimulant.
 
L-Huperzine A – A natural plant extract that boosts memory, learning and focus. Focus will be the most important one here normally but I will be sitting some exams later in the month so fingers cross this maybe an added aid for me lol!!!!
 
EvoSyn Prop blend 300mg:
 
Caffeine Anhydrous – we all know this one, energy and appetite surpression.
 
Evodiamine – This chemical has been shown to reduce fat uptake in mouse studies but I don’t think it has been proven in humans.
 
Synephrine HCL – Stimulant derived from Citrus Aurantium and a common substitute for Ephedrine. It is very similar to Ephedrine in composition and is also found in some cold and flu medicines and weight loss products which contain Ma Huang. It is thought to have the same energy boosting, appetite suppressing and increasing your metabolic rate in the same way caffeine does.
 
Overall again this looks to be a very good product with select ingredients in it helping appetite suppression, energy and increased focus.
 
If anyone has any further info on the ingredients that iv missed out or have struggled to find out post it up guys as I will be interested in reading it.
 
Other than that I will start these supps as soon as I receive them and start giving feed back on them as soon as I do.

hey dude,

Brilliant stuff, I look forward to recieving them Reggie.
 
Oooohh some extra ones sound good, feels like xmas lol!!!!
 
Cool all advice always welcomed.
 
Vas and Sog cheers for the intrest guys :@)

Good luck with this mate; will be following it

Cheers mate.

Just been doing a little more reading and remembered X-lean contained a derivative of DHEA (7-Beta-Hydroxy-DHEA).

So Im hoping it will have the same Cortisal control properties X-Lean has. I remember using it last time during PCT and I really leaned out on it.

Just to update my DS stack is at the post office now as they did not leave with my neighbour and so I will go and pick them up tomorrow morning. The royal mail really are not performing like they used too…………
 
I will be starting them immediately and will be posting up some BF%, Body part measurements and start weight.

Guys I got my supps this morning and will report day one in a min.
 
Pred thanks for the I force Nutrition Maximize Pre work out drink sample. Im gona keep that for a nice weight training day I think. But the Geranamine and Phenylethylamine I will use for a am sscv session as I suspect it will be pretty strong lol!!!!


Again thanks for selecting me to try these I am really chuffed.
 
Start off stats are:
 
BF 23.68% bf  this is taken using BF callipers.
 
Weight 16 stone 2lb
 
I will mark body part measurements tomorrow when the other half is back.
 
I have got a few pics today although Im looking out of shape right now I will post them up as soon as I can find the cable to link my camera to the laptop…….
 
This should serve as good motivation and an indicator of how well these supps work for me.
 
Roll on the next few weeks and lets see if I can drop BF down under the 20% mark using these supps.

Day 1 (Saturday)
 
Supps
 
AM
1x Lean Xtream

Training

General
 
Comments are I am truly impressed with this stack already lol!!!!
 
I felt full of energy this morning to about the right level for me i.e. not as strong as ECA or Adrenalin but strong enough to give you loads of energy that seemed to last for around 3-4 hours.
 
Im planning on trying the Adrenalean pre skipping to see how I get on with it as I get the impression from this morning I will not gas too quickly using it and should be useful for slightly more intensive cardio.
 
I have genuinely felt good all day on them and more importantly for me it has help curb my hunger thank f*ck…….. The last week has been a killer for me regarding hunger and so it was a welcomed change to not feel so hungry today. I can not liken the effectiveness of the hunger curbing to anything else I have tried todate, huuummmm maybe RPM, that was kinda similar IIRC. Again it feels kinda middle ground which is good. ECA can kill my hunger completely for a number of hours and other supps like Stimulatn X don’t really curb it all. This makes you not feel hungry but allows you to eat i.e. this morning I was able to eat a small breakfast of 4 weetabix with no worries, an hour after taking them. But I managed to get till lunch time with not one hunger pang in site but was able to eat again and I am just about getting hungry now so very effective indeed.
 
I thought I would note down my thoughts on them now so I have something to compare them to at the end of the review as its easy to forget how they effected you to start with.
 
So in conclusion Im happy they are powerful enough for what I want but not over the top to prevent me from training how I want to.

    Good start mate, great fun trying new produts, not knowing what to expect,  may get lean xtreme for my pct as a lot of people rate it. BTW love the motor.

Glad you got a good start to the cycle Taz. I would pay attention to the leaning out around the midsection. That is one area I notice this stack works well on (although I was taking alphaburn as well).

Good session today, very pleased with it as got plenty of cardio in.

Abbs were great today, I really felt them burning.

Skipping is something I have not done for some time and so my arms were aching like help by the latter sets. Im hoping to pick this up twice a week from now on.

Overal feeling positive and tbh Im not sure if its the pills or what lol!!!!

But unfotunatley today the hunger has started to get me again by around 10 am ish which is annoying. Iv either got used to its effects or the pills are pushing me more over the cal burning threashold making me hungrey.  Fingers crossed its the latter and Ill see good results.

Pred do you think I would benifit from dosing Lean Xtream at 4 caps ed taking 2 within say 3 hours of each other in the morning?

General

Missed the am cardio this morning as absolutely knackered doh!!!!!!
 
Also been hungry as hell again all day so I think this stack has def just kicked me over the cal deficit meaning I should be burning the fat.
 
I was thinking of taking 2 extra Adrenalean caps at lunch to help curb it a little but been worried about getting enough sleep for work. But seeing as I have Friday off Im gona give it a go tomorrow so will report back. As you can see I have also bumped the Lean Extream to 4 caps ed now to help things along.
 
I got some nice light weights in today ontop of cardio which was good so overall fairly happy.

Be an interesting read mate. I liked lean X when I tried it so be nice to see how it stacks.

General

Did not manage to get up again today, I must need to catch up on rest as been flat out with work etc.
 
I enjoyed the interval training today as the first time in a long time that I have done it. Im planning on building on this to get my fitness back upto scratch.
 
Sit-ups I went for as many as I could took 30 secs break and repeated hence why the numbers decreased lol!!
 
Still hungry as hell but I feel super positive still so defo attributing this to the stack.
