This write up is more aimed at Anagen, since it wa sa review for the product.
I will say I used GB+WB for 2-3weeks prior to adding anagen, and during that period I was very pleased with the combo of t he two. adding anagen just blew the top off.

JD's ANAGEN REVIEW
Effectiveness: I am very pleased with the results from using anagen. obviously, they increased as i increased the dose to 5 caps a day instead of 4, though it was not that dramatic, and i would more than likely stay at 4 caps the whole log if i could redo it.
Cost/Effect: 25$ a bottle. depending on your weight, it'll last a good long time. I'd recommend two bottles like SciVation provided us with for our logs.. still only 50$ !
Side effects: I didn't get any sides that I noticed. I would say that I was extremely relaxed during the whole log, but this may be hard to fully contribute to anagen. The only thing I may note on is that the one time I got pretty drunk during the log, I vomited rediculously that night; though I think it may be cause I ate a stale ceral bar or 3 when i got home (on top of alot of tequila and beer) that night its just something I wanted to touch on.
also, some people said a lack of libido while using anagen... i experienced none of this. in fact my gf told me everytim she saw me she thought my package was getting larger. which is always great to hear. of course, this could of been from the increased blood flow from white blood, either way, i recommend WB+Anagen.
Overall: very pleased with this product. SciVation provides quality, and they have not missed the mark on this new release either. product showed defninte increases in lifts (below) and overall muscle hardness/fullness and endurance/recovery. o yea, i also saw increased in vascularity (even tho I had been using white blood, I was using it prior to beginning anagen, the product showed even more vascularity imo)!
I also recieved numerous comments about getting bigger/leaner from coworkers, as well as my gf. everytime i saw my gf she said i was leaning out and looking bigger..
I even had one coworker ask me if i was on steroids one day, cos i looked alot larger/leaner than the last time she saw me (which was awhile before the log began). stuff like that always makes you feel great.
overview of my lifts:
before : 1 rep deadlift = ?? no clue, i wasnt even doing them. I just started early in the log because I figured hey its a good lift i should do it.
after: 1 rep deadlift = 360 no belt/straps
before:1 rep squat = hadn't tested recently
after:1 rep squat max = 350pd no belt, no spot
while the end weight isn't impressive IMO, the ease with which it was lifted is. I could of easily kept going on this, but for the most part I focus more on higher reps on squats rather than max rep weight. I never wear belts anymore, and I dont enjoy going rediculously heavy like i had in the past for the sake of saving my back/knees
before: 1 rep bench max = 315/320 on a good day
after:1 rep bench max - 335 no help (340+ kept getting stuck midpoint and requiring slight assistance) i think if i werent stressed from finals (ie got more sleep) this may of been even higher!
Not only did the 1RPMs increase, but endurance and overall lifts increased regularly throughout the log.
for ex. as I posted in this log..
on 4/3 (day 1) during bench highest weight --- 3x250 (thought I was done) 3x5x250
on 5/1 (day 30if my math is right..) I benched 6x275 (building towards a max test even)
other #'s
3/15 -----------------5/17
Weight: 212.5lb ------------ -- 219.2 (20% bodyfat) -- according to tanita scale - i def think 20% is way off.
Chest: 41"-------------- 43.5 (across nipples)
Waist: 34" 3/4-------------- 36 (at bellybutton)
Thighs: 22' 3/4'------------ -- 23 3/4 (halfway between groin/knee)
Arms (flexed): 15" 1/4'------------ -- 16 (halway between elbow/shoulder)
calves: 15" 1/2 ------------ -- 16 (halfway between knee/ankle)
If I could redo this log; I would
1 - add BCAA or EAAs -- some kind of free form aminos for sure. (mentioned in the webcast by Chuck Rudolph)
2 - stay at 4 caps the whole time.
3 - Stack with fenotest (mentioned by Chuck Rudolph in the bull issue #23)
4 - take the white blood at night... may prove for even better gains, though less vascularity perhaps?
