Get dem Big Weekends Series 3

Hey People of the world!!

Today I bring another inspiring video for our Get Dem Big Weekend Series. The series which aims to bring you small little bits of inspiration and motivation to get you going in life and in your fitness goals.

Eric Thomas a speaker, educator, author, activist and minister. He is known by "delivering high energy messages that encourage people to live up to their full potential by breaking the cycles of crime, hopelessness and despair that many face daily."So whoever who reads this blog, we here at Get Dem Big is using one of this masterpiece hoping that you too will lie your life to its full potential and be whatever you want to be. Check out the video below




Here's the transcription for you to read on just in case.

"Listen to Me! 
PAIN is temporary
It may last for a minute, or an hour, or a day, or even a year!
But eventually it WILL subside and something else will take its place
If I quit however, it will last FOREVER! 
Y'all spoil, some of y'all spoil. Bottom line! 
Your parents have done everything for you! 
You never had to do nothing for yourself, you spoil. We’re gonna keep it real tonight!
Some of you are spoiled brats!
Every time you ever got into trouble, somebody in your house get you out of it. 
Every time you've done something you're not supposed to do.
People say Eric, your mom's a tyrant!! You're right! 
She kicked me out! You're right!
She mean! 
But she developed a man because she put me out there
And said you gonna have to grow up
And some of you have not LEARN to GROW UP!
And so every time something gets hard you QUIT! You call mama! 
I dare you to take a little pain! I dare YOU
I dare you NOT to go home!
Somebody said “if I don't go home, I feel bad.” Go Through IT!
You ain't gonna die!
At the end of PAIN is SUCCESS!
You're not gonna die because you felt a little pain!
I'm not eating like I eat at home. 
That's why you're about to go through the NEXT LEVEL
Because if you keep eating like you ate at home, you'll keep being a boy or a girl. 
It's time to become MAN! WOMAN!
But I'm exactly where I wanna be because I realized I gotta commit my very being to this thing. 
I gotta breathe it! I gotta eat it! I gotta sleep it!
And until you get there, you'll never be successful in life. 
But once you GET THERE!
I guarantee you the world is yours!
So work hard and you can have whatever it is you want!"


    This is a great motivational speech from Eric Thomas and we hope that this will get you going and achieve your fitness goals. Pain in necessary to build a better and stronger you. The pain that you felt keeps you grounded and reminds you of the person you were and the person you have become. Certain pains are necessary and some are not. Let the experience of the necessary pains mold you to be a better person and the unnecessary ones, let them be lessons. 

"Pain is just weakness leaving the body".

So we leave y'all with these pictures from the web!

Get Dem Big with Inner Armour Muscle Peak

What's up people!
I bring you another protein supplement review. Today I have for you hailing from Inner Armour!!  

Inner Armour Muscle Peak

Inner Armour dubbed itself as the Most powerful supplements in the world.  And I have not much to argue there because some of their stuff is really potent. Like their Hard Mass. That shit is crazy. Anyway, since nobody has done a review on this product, so I thought I'd give it a go after finishing a tub of this stuff.







Product: Inner Armour Muscle-Peak

Type : Whey Protein 


General overview:
 
Check it:
Recommended serving size: 2 scoops (44g per scoop). 
Per serving you'll get 50g of protein, 390 cal, 34g of carbs and 6g of fats
In this Human Growth Factor Nitro Index (HGFI) Blend you have you BCAAs (Laucune, Isoleucine and Valine), Creatine Monohydrate, WPC, WPI and some MCTs. These are the good stuff you'll be getting from this product. Doesn't say how much they have all these stuff in there. 
This product also includes an Enzyme called Amino-Peak Amino Acid Spiking Polypeptide Comples which basically contains peptidase. This is to break the protein faster and makes absorption faster. 

Instructions:2 scoops (88g) in COLD water or milk or any beverage of your choice and chug it down. 
*Personally I go with 1 scoop in the morning, post workout and before bed. Remember to get your protein from other sources and do not depend solely on supplements*

Personal comment:

      I like this product mainly because it's cheap and it delivers good amounts of protein per scoop. It's one of the cheapest protein supplement out there, at RM 145.00 and it has good stuff in there as stated. However, there are somethings that I don't quite like. Their  HGFI Blend, they say that it has all of those ingredients but they didn't state how much. I would like to know if I'm taking in 5g of creatine monohydrate or BCAAs etc. I would prefer a more specific macros. For me, creatine is very important and I want to make sure that I'm getting my daily dosage of creatine or BCAAs; thus I look for supplements that gives me everything in one tub. I'm a tracks and  field athlete and a power lifter. I don't have it in my budget to buy a separate tub of BCAAs because this shit is expensive.
 

Taste, mix-ability and texture :

     First of the taste, I had chocolate and the taste was not that good. In fact I prefer Mutant Whey's taste better. It's like your standard chocolate protein powder but the great tasting ones. Warning: Drink this only with cold water or cold milk. If you mix it in room temperature water, it doesn't taste very good and the after taste is quite unpleasant.
Texture wise it's like your hot-chocolate or Milo. Mix-ability is great. Put it in water and shake it hard and good and you're set. 



The scoop is smaller then I expected because it says 44g.



Where can you get it? : you can get it at Whypaymorenutritions and musclemaniaclub. Whypaymorenutritions sells it cheaper at RM140.00 while musclemaniaclub sells it at RM148.00. Unfortunately both of these online stores are sold out. 



Aside form the taste, this is really a good product and I would actually go back to this product after I finish my Ronnie Coleman Pro-Antium. I like this product.

Get Dem Big Weekends Motivation Series 2

 Hey Guys!!

This is a great motivational video made by the guys at ImPossible Training. This video is simply amazing. I thought this video showcased the human capability to do whatever it takes to succeed not only in your workouts but in your life as well. These words can be associated with your life's achievements and failures. Forcing you to be humble in your achievements and learn from your failures. I've transcribed the speech for this video. check it out. 





"Imagine if you were blind. 
Complete darkness, no colors, no view, no beauty.
Just pitch black
If you were blind ask yourself how badly you'd want to SEE. 
If pushing yourself to your limits could give you sight? 
Would you do it?
If there was a cure would you let anything stand in your way?
Would you risk the haters and the critics to see again?
Do you really want to succeed? 
Would you really care if they mocked you, laughed at you, pointed at you or bad mouthed you? 
Would you be concerned about your extreme goals?
Or just embrace the extreme work
What if you had to learn hurt, trust pain and embrace struggle, would you still be concerned with being realistic? 
Would you still figure your odds and calculate your chances? 
If you had to spend more time, planning your workouts and less time planning your weekends, would it be a tough choice?
If the cure for blindness was humility and pain, would you go for it?
If the cure for blindness was looking foolish, would you risk it? 
If seeing again took a fight, would you start swinging
If the cure was doing things you can’t do, would you attempt them? 
If a few extra hours, a few more drops of sweat and a little bit more blood was all it took would you claim your sight? 
Do you really want to succeed?
Then choose to be blind and do whatever it takes to see, because if you don't then you're just blind anyway."


      I thought that this video brought out a creative perspective on what we are willing to do to succeed in life. Using the analogy of equating blindness and the lengths we are willing to go to to get our sight back is with what we are willing to do to succeed in life. Because if we do nothing, then nothing's going to change. If you are reading this then I believe that you still have your sight. What if you go blind? (God forbid) You know the wonders and the blessing of having your sight. Wouldn't you fight or die trying to regain your sight?



We at Get Dem Big wants you to have what you deserve and not settle for what you don't.

Have a great weekend and GET DEM BIG!!

Get Dem Big Team

Get Dem Big with Ronnie Coleman Signature Series Resurrect-PM

What's up people! Another supplement review today.  Another Ronnie Coleman Signature Series product. This time I bring you the RCSS Resurrect-PM Ultra- Concentrated Sleep and Recovery Formula.








Product: RCSS Resurrect-PM

Type :Sleep and recovery formula

General overview:



 Check it :
1 scoop= 8grams give you 4cal, 0g sugar, 0g fat and only 1g of carb(too little to make any significant changes to your body, you're good)

1scoop gives you Zinc, Magnesium and B6= ZMA, so you can save money by not buying a separate ZMA blend if you already are. The dosage in this bad boy is sufficient. 

This stuff is made up of two main matrices/proprietary blend which is R.E.M. (Rapid Eye Movement) Mass and  Growth Hormone Optimizers and the other matrix is LMT(Lean Muscle Tissue) Recovery Matrix. 

The R.E.M.  Mass and  Growth Hormone Optimizers contains pretty standard ingredients. Design to relax your body and it's typical in most sleeping aid formula. L-arginine also promotes growth hormone just so you know.
The LMT Recovery Matrix which has creatine gluconate which is basically creatine bonded with glucose molecule and the other ingredient is the infamous Hica. increases the synthesis of protein
It's not a cheap ingredient. So Ronnie Coleman is not playing games when he says you'll be building some muscles when you're sleeping. 

Instructions: 
1scoop(8grams) in water, shake it up and chug it down. Do this 30 minutes before bed and on an empty stomach. 
Suggest usage is 5 days on and 2 days off meaning the 5 days should be your workout days. What I do is take it 4 days and 3 days off. to stretch the supplement because I'm broke. I usually take it from Monday, Wednesday and Friday and the other 4 days off. Why? Because those are my workout days.  
Personal comment:

     I actually like this stuff. Initially, I thought it would be bull and I shouldn't have wasted my money on this thing. For the first few trials of this product, I didn't feel a thing. I don't go to sleep any easier nor do I get the best sleep. So I thought this was a flop.

    After using this stuff for about 3 weeks now, I actually feel the effects of the product after taking it for about a week and a half. I find that I do sleep better and I have more energy in the gym becasue of that sleep. However I also find that waking up is harder. This stuff knocks me out and I get up feeling super groggy but it gets better. So this stuff is really cool in my books 

my bummed out fingers are seen.


   As you can see in the photo, the tub looks half empty, right? Wrong, the tub is actually three quarters empty. When I opened this stuff at first I was excited because I got a free Myo-Blitz sample, Yayyy!! But then I looked at the bottom, it's only a quarter filled. I was like, shit, bums me out man. I know that all supplements are packed by its weight not the container size. But as a buyer when you see three quarters of an empty tub you'll be bummed out. 
 

Taste, mix-ability and texture :

    Let's start with the taste. First off, the Blue Razz Dream, I wasn't dreaming after drinking this. The taste of Blue Razz Dream is kinda horrible, not as good as expected. The sensacool tech did not help make it taste better. Lucky for me I had the Blue Razz Dream as my sample packet. The Midnight Grape however, is pretty good. At first it tastes kinda funky, but you'll get used to it. You'll be surprised that you'll come to like it. So, I really like the Midnight Grape, I recommend that flavour.


Blue liquid with a little bit of foam on top. Both flavours are blue.

    Mix ability won't be that much of an issue because, it mixes quite well. you'll see some granules sink to the bottom, those are probably the creatine gluconate. Texture wise; flavoured water. 


8 grams scoop size


[Scoop Size]:


Where can you get it? : You can get this product at Musclemaniaclub.com and fitlion.com
Musclemaniaclub is selling it at RM116.00 while Fitlion is selling it at Rm120.00. Musclemania club is cheaper but Fitlion has a great bundle pack. 



I'd say that this is a fantastic product and quite worth your investment. SO   Get Dem Big with Ronnie Coleman Signature Series Resurrect-PM

Dom
