Muscletech HMB Supplements 1000mg, Clear Muscle (42 Liquid Softgels) - Highest Grade HMB for Lean Muscle & Recovery - HMB Free Acid Muscle Supplement - Help Decrease Muscle Breakdown

Stuff has a strong smell but no taste, take recommended dosage but not too late at night. WITH FOOD because it will almost feel like spicy food and be hot on your stomach and if you dry swallow it and it gets stuck in your throat youre in for a bit of a soar throat as the stuff is almost like spice or, as it says, acid. That disclaimer out of the way it works super well, I lift heavy and often and can power through exercises like a well oiled machine. Have lost fat and gained more muscle than ever before.

This review might get a bit wordy, you've been warned :D.So I started lifting close to a year and a half ago. Comically it was due to having too many beers and I had some pos dumbells laying around. Anyway...fast forward a ways and I started my journey on building up a home gym. At one point found my way to strongman channels on Youtube. I decided to set goals for myself to at least get to what I felt was a good baseline for a male's ability to lift. Enter my two main goals, benchpress goal, and deadlift goal. Both compound lifts that do great things for your body if done correctly (aka don't be stupid and injure yourself).I've reached plateau's before. Ones where it seemed like I pretty much had to inch and crawl and claw my way up to any small increase in weight on the bars. They've been tough and a mental as well as physical strain. Had a few months somewhat off where I was pretty much stuck with bodyweight only and 35lb dumbells for a time. Enter a few changes to my routines, and this supplement.Yes I've made other changes besides this supplement, but I'm going to give a majority of the kudos to this supplement. I went from struggling to break plateau's to busting the crap right out of them. As an example once I got back from my 3 months or not seriously lifting I was struggling to get back to where I had left off. I had finally gotten there but felt pretty dead after each workout, had no extra gear and nothing in the tank to actually improve. I started adding more protein into my diet, like a lot more. I realized I had been taking normal people levels, I needed lifter levels. After that I also started on this supplement. Well after about a week of taking this I realized hitting my heaviest lifts were a lot easier. Each time I hit them I felt I had an extra gear I could have engaged for more. At the end of my workouts I felt like I could add a few extra accessories on to it and still have gas. I was very leery of this, will admit to being a bit negative and not believing it. Well the next week hits and same story, way too easy feeling. So on a whim I decided to up my bench by 5lbs and see what happened. Well...I had no problems engaging that extra gear and lifting it. Another week of workouts go by and I noticed my deadlift was also seemingly a lot easier. I used to almost feel like passing out after my heaviest set, and now I just felt like I should have done more....Enter today, enter the day I followed another whim and made a leap. I had a bit too much to drink the prev night so felt pretty blah. Honestly I thought about entirely skipping my workout. But as Shaw says, discipline > motivation and no way was my lack of motivation winning! So I started warming up with easier deadlift reps. I got to the point I usually do my heaviest set and on that whim said what the hell, let's shoot for 300lbs. I know, lots of guys hit way higher than that, but for me that's a big jump PR on deads. Now if you've ever watched the big pros on strongman using the hitching technique I assumed if I had chance I'd have to do similar. I was fully prepared to have to hitch my way and likely fail anyway. Well....came right up off the floor and I even held it for awhile before lowering it again ( i don't drop, I lower, so pretty much a Romanian deadlift right after a normal one hah). My daughter happened to be down there when I tried and gotta say that felt awesome. I'm looking forward to how heavy I can push myself now. I even contemplated going heavier yet, that final gear barely seemed like it got activated.So in the end, the bottle does not lie, it will increase your 1 rep max, your endurance, your performance in general. Time will tell if I add on muscle pounds like they claim, but for the rest of it alone I'm subscribing to this supplement. Thank You MuscleTech!!!

I don't normally review products. THIS IS AMAZING. Best pump day in the GYM ever. First day taking it and I had more strength then all the previous day's I've been lifting. I will definitely be purchasing it again. The smell of the capsules is a little strange but once they are swallowed its fine.

Use before exercising

Helps maintain gains.

I took the recommended dosage and within 2 days I had severe body aches. 3 days later the body aches went away. Thinking I had the flu I went back to their recommended dosing and the same thing happened. I cut back to one capsule before I went to the gym 3 days a week. The upside is that I have started to lose weight and have already lost nine pounds. My performance in the gym is notably greater. Their customer support is very poor. They have no phone number to call them on. The only thing you can do is email them. I emailed them with my issues and it's been almost two weeks now and still have not gotten a resolution. They keep saying my questions are being reviewed. I caution you on this product especially a company that is so difficult to communicate with.UPDATEtwo weeks have gone by and these people have not been able to give me an update on my concerns. Would not buy anything from these people. Their customer service is terrible. Buy your HMB from somebody else.

I love it! Really does the trick with your recover time. Great addition to my stack. The only drawback is it smalls like Nuts, just hold your breath. Highly recommend 10 out of 10!

Great product
