I Tried EVERY Legal Performance Enhancer

AI Summary

Will Tennyson embarked on a week-long experiment to test various legal performance enhancers beyond common creatine and pre-workout, seeking to discover if they offered superhuman strength or just awkward experiences. He started with beet juice and baking soda, which he found surprisingly effective, leading to increased strength, faster recovery, and a significant pump, including a 40-pound increase on leg press and an inch added to his quads. Next, he tried nicotine gum, experiencing heightened energy, focus, and a 'tunnel vision' effect during his workout, though he cautioned against its long-term use due to negative side effects. Cialis was the third enhancer, which he found dramatically improved blood flow, resulting in an unprecedented chest pump and increased vascularity, adding 1.5 inches to his chest measurement. An IV drip, with undisclosed ingredients, provided the longest-lasting and most intense pump, increasing his arm measurement by nearly 2 inches and enhancing focus and endurance. Smelling salts, used with guest Jeff Nippard, offered a short burst of focus and strength for max effort lifts but were deemed non-essential for regular gym use. Finally, he tested turkesterone, a plant steroid, over several days, noting appetite suppression, a 2.1 lb weight loss, and improved body composition, though the strength boost was less dramatic. Overall, Tennyson concluded that while many enhancers provided significant benefits, most were not suitable for long-term use, reserving them for special occasions or max effort days.
