I get a lot of questions about what kind of supplements I take on a regular basis.
About two months ago, I would have told you that I don't take any. I generally rely on regular foods to supplement my workouts. Also, I hate the way powdered product tastes. It's either like drinking straight sugar water or drinking liquified chalk. Ew.
So when my friend Claudia asked me to try out ATP Mechanix, I was a little skeptical. She assured me that it was unflavored (and I'm thinking, "right, we all know that 'unflavored' means it tastes like crap") and really good--it would help me focus and push through my workouts and then recover afterwards.
So I tried it. Skeptically.
And Claudia was right.

The pre-workout was what I was most concerned about, as I don't want to be jittery or have my heart feel like it's exploding out of my chest. And it was complete opposite of that. I felt very focused and direct, like I wasn't going to stop until my workout stopped, instead of when I got tired.
The post-workout was the bomb. I should note that I had actually taken a week off prior to coming back hard in the gym and I was pretty nervous about being so sore I couldn't move...and that also wasn't the case. While I was sore (duh), I wasn't half as sore as I could have/should have been. I also felt like I got more restful sleep--as of late, my sleep patterns have kind of sucked with waking up at ridiculous times and tossing and turning. I didn't have any of those problems while taking ATP Mechanix.
I literally loved using the product and especially loved that the labels are in actual English. I can Google all the things on the label and actually figure out what they do--instead of having to read alternative names/figure out alternate pathways to figure out what I'm putting in my body.
Each pouch is good for 30 days of supplementation and requires very small serving sizes.
