Anabolic Pump is in a unique class of supplements called Selective Insuline Muscle Sensitizer or better known as SIMS. The ingredients in this are designed to help control insulin sensitivity in order to build muscle while also stimulating lipolysis for the loss of fat. AP has nutrient partioning effects in the terms of better using Complex carbs for Muscle Gains and saturating muscles with glycogen and aminos. Insulin plays a HUGE roll in Muscle Gains and bf % levels and AP helps support it. I just wanted to clear that up because I know this supplement brings aton of questions to people new to the game. Now onto my review. And yes it is safe and 100% natural. The P-blend is 750mg, consisting of Phellodendron (Bark) and Crape Mertle (Lagerstroemia Speciosia)(Stem)).

I ran 3 bottles of AP and stacked it with Prime on my bulk phase. I waited about a month after my cut to do some strength training and start bumping up my calories slowly and when I got them to their peak, I starting taking this.

Results- This product claims to induce a massive food pump (Unlike any pump product or AAKG pump) about an hour after a dose. There was no food pump so to speak of for me. That was slightly disappointing because I was excited to experience that. I proCEEded with the cycle and it wasn't until about a month later that I noticed that I looked just as good as I did fresh off my cut phase. Throughout the entire cycle, I only managed to go up 1.5% bf. Not exactly cutting fat, but for having my calories and carbs sky high, that impressed me. I am now about a month and a half off my cycle and my bf% is up roughly 1% with the same diet. My bf% is currently 11% and is normally about 12-13% long before this time in my bulk phase, so I know I can attribute my lean-ness to AP.

The other thing I like about AP was the decrease of the nasty, well known Carb Bloat. I felt like this helped me experience clean energy from food without the feeling of sluggishness after my big carb meals. Definitely felt like it helped me push through some heavy weight sessions and recover better with my diet.

The gains I experienced while taking Anabolic Pump were tremendous. I was having 10 lb increases every week on my compound lifts for a month straight while they still increased after that in slightly smaller increments, and LBM (Lean body mass) was climbing at a steady pace of about 1.5 pounds a month. However, I don't know if I can attribute the majority of it to AP. I know it helped but I felt like Prime was the mackdaddy of my supplement stack. But to stay lean while making clean gains significantly fast is more than I can ever ask for in a supplement. So for that, I thank USP Labs for formulating Anabolic Pump and the rest of their trust-worthy supplement line.

Value- You can find AP in only the 90 count bottle cheapest on the web at about 45-50 dollars + shipping, depending on where you buy from. I recommend ProSource.net or BodyBuilding.com. At first, you dose it 2 caps a day, 15-20 minutes before a complex carb meal containing at least 30-40g of carbs. Then, I believe it's after a week or so, you can bump up to 3 caps a day. I dosed it exactly like this. USP Labs recommends using the 3 doses for breakfast, pre workout meal, and post workout meal but for me it didn't always fall like that since my daily schedule changes constantly. I would usually take it right upon waking before breakfast, have a snack before my workout, take it with my postworkout meal, and then my last big carb meal of the day later in the evening.

**I advise everyone to not take more than 1 cap at a time, take 2 doses closer than a few hours apart, or take a dose without eating because it will cause your body to go Hypoglycemic.** I made this mistake once and never again. I took my dose, fell back asleep, and woke up an hour later with dizzyness, cold sweats, and extreme hunger pangs. I sprinted to the kitchen and almost busted my ass trying to get my oatmeal out lol!

From what I have seen, Anabolic Pump has mixed results from the consumers. For me, I liked staying lean and making gains, so I will buy this again and I will also recommend it to anyone looking to stay lean while bulking, recomping, or even cutting. I also highly recommend stacking it with Prime. That stack can get pricey, I know, but if you have the dough, I think it's worth it.

Out of the Asteroid Stack this was the one that really worked well for me. I started seeing it work after the first week of taking it, which is the loading phase. It really allowed me to not worry som much about the exact amount of carbs i was eating, and just focus a little more on lifting. Some people are complaining about timeing it, but that wasn't a big issue for me. The timeing was easy, and really just force you to be mindful of when you eat so you don't eat at the wrong times. Only problem was when I took it in the morning, about 15min later I would hafta tear it up in the bathroom. That was about the only time of the day it ever affected me like that though.

This is another good product from USP. I could feel the carbs working better for workout energy and saw increase in muscle mass.
I was not in a weight loss cycle when I used this more of a mass building cycle. I lost 20# in under a month and the only thing I changed was using this product. This is just a side note and may have more to do with my diet and how this interacts with it but it was a welcome side effect.

This product was not as bad as Prime. I used it as part of the Asteroid Stack as well as by itself.
This product does have some merit to it although I do not see its place in bodybuilding. Simple manipulation of your own diet would suffice rather than taking this product.
When I would take AP, I would get very hungry in the time between taking the AP and the actual meal it preceded. This was most likely mental since when you have to wait for food, you begin to crave it more (the thanksgiving effect).
When I did use this product i would always consume at least 40g of carbs afterwards and most likely more. Afterwards however there was no increase in endurance or energy, I never had a recomposition effect (quite the opposite) and It certainly did not help build muscle.
My results with this were VERY ambiguous and any positive feelings I might have for it are most likely placebo effects since they are so minimally pronounced.
In retrospect I did not have "carb crashes" when I took this but I rarely do anyways.
Im sorry I spent so much money on running this product for 3 months with absolutely no results.
If you have any questions regarding this review or my usage of AP please PM me.

-Anabolic Pump is a new category of supplement called a Selective Insulin Muscle Sensitizer (SIMS).
-What is a SIMS?
*A SIMS is a substance that stimulates muscle cells to suck up glucose better than Insulin. Unlike Insulin, a SIMS blocks glucose uptake in fat cells while promoting lipolysis(fat burning).
-Product Claims:
* Super saturate (literally force feeds) muscle cells with glucose and amino acids
* Block glucose uptake in fat cells
* Potentiate the positive effects of insulin on muscle cells
* Block triglyceride uptake in fat cells
* Stimulate lipolysis
* Improve lipid profile
Personal Results:
*Strength/Endurance:
-Individually I don't find Anabolic Pump to be very outstanding in strength strength increases but endurance was ten fold better. With the amount of carbs I was able to put down and therefore the amount of glycogen stored in my muscles, I blew through sets at the gym.
*Diet/Carbs/Fat Loss:
-Aside form the success I have had with AP during my run of it during a lean bulk phase, AP is a great weapon in your arsenal when trying to loose BF while maintaining LBM. For me to be able to put down that large amount of carbs a day while loosing significant body fat is remarkable. Keeping carbs high and still having fat loss is an A in my book.
*Overall Subjective Feelings
-Recovery while on AP is incredible. Like stated before a product that has the ability to saturate muscles with glycogen has allowed me to burst through sets and keep a steady schedule/pace even on when I am consistently pushing past PRs with weight and reps.
-The pumps and vascularity that are promised are not what you will experience with a NO product. Full, pumped, engorged muscles is the only way to describe what I feel like in the gym training. Not only does this provide a mental boost and great feeling but it is creating an environment Primed for anabolism.
*Overall Ratings:
-Strength: 7/10
-Muscle Growth/Retention(Bulk/Cut): 9.3/10
-Fat Loss: 9.6/10
-Endurance/Recovery 9.8/10 (both aerobically and anaerobically endurance was greatly increased)
-Pumps/Vascularity: 9.75/10
--Product as a whole: 9.35/10
-AP

that really worked well for me. I started seeing it work after the first week of taking it, which is the loading phase. It really allowed me to not worry so much about the exact amount of carbs i was eating, and just focus a little more on lifting. Some people are complaining about timeing it, but that wasn't a big issue for me. The timeing was easy, and really just force you to be mindful of when you eat so you don't eat at the wrong times. Only problem was when I took it in the morning, about 15min later I would hafta tear it up in the bathroom. That was about the only time of the day it ever affected me like that though.

Anabolic pump, as most people know is a nutrient partitioning supplement. The difference between AP and other similar supplements, is that AP supposedly works independently of insulin by activating GLUT-4, essentially opening up the "anabolic window" at multiple times of the day, instead of 30 min to an hour post workout. This is supposed to increase muscle growth, as well as support fat loss.

Taste/Smell- This was a pill, so there want much of a taste, but it smelled like burnt food a little bit. It didnt matter to me because, again, its a pill.

Value- I bought this for around 40 dollars, which isnt aweful, but it is pretty darn expensive. Its not the best value, but i figured it was worth a try.

Pumps- This needs to be talked about. around 30 minutes after taking this and eating my meal, my muscles would get pretty full. Nothing crazy, but they did fill up more than normal. However when i took this with my pre workout meal (usually consisting of 50-80 grams of complex carbs), the pump i got during my workout was insane. It wasnt just a full pump, it was a deep feeling. Its kind of hard to explain, but it felt like the blood was pumping from the inside out, instead of the other way. Again it sounds weird when i explain it, but it was definately a different feeling.

Muscle Growth/fat loss- I did seem to lean out slightly while taking this. Nothing extreme, but i was able to see my "abs" a bit better, and my strength seemed to keep increasing at a steady pace. I cant contribute all my gains/losses to AP because my workouts and cardio changed up a bit. Either way, i did make pretty good gains while on AP.

Side Effects- Really the only side effect i felt while on AP was the Anabolic Dumps that it gave me. Around 5-10 min after i took the pill, it was a sure thing that i would take a trip to the bathroom. Other than that, nothing else to report.

Other Notes- AP did seem to reduce carb bloat a lot. I would consume 60-100 grams of carbs after my dose of AP, and i didnt really get bloated or "sick" from it.

Overall: Personally i enjoyed Anabolic Pump, if it was cheaper, then i would definately keep it in my stack. But until then, i will most likely continue to use supplements like Glycobol or other somewhat cheaper alternatives as nutrient repartitioners.

So I have to say I was pleasently surprised by Anabolic Pump. Based on other reviews I looked at before purchasing some people seemed to love it and other claimed to have no effect on them but I was very intreged by AP so I went for it and was very happy I did.

First off AP is a Nurtrient Partitioning Agent known as a SIMS (Selective Insuline Muscle Sensitizer) which in simple terms is a product that takes nutrients from food (in this case carbs) and suttles it to your muscles faster and reduces the amount that turns into fat cells. Meaning theoretically on AP you should both see a decrease in body fat and an increase in muscle size and strenght. Which is of course what we all want, right?

Dosing: Very simple dosing instructions, for the first week take one pill twice daily about 6-8 hours apart and 15-20min before the meal. Then after the first week you are good to start taking 3 pills a day, one 15-20 min before a carb heavy meals which I took as being 40-50g of carbs or more and I did the easy thing and just took it before breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Effectiveness(10): I ran two bottles of AP back to back, so for about two months straight and was more then satisfied by my results. Initially I didn't really notice anything besides the fact that I could eat a ton of carbs without feeling bloated or sluggish. By about the third week noticable body and strength results really kicked in. All of my core lifts have went up significantly over the past two months adding about 30lbs on my deadlift, 20lbs on my bench (which helped me break through a platue, yay!), and about 30lbs on my squat. I know I can contribute most of this to AP because I didn't added anything different to my stack besides it. I ran it with Animal Pak, Kre-alyk, Myofusion, and fish oil which is pretty much my standard stack. As far as weight loss is concered I only lost a few lbs but I know it was purely fat considering my bf% went down from 8.5% to roughly 7%, which is astonishing to me considering the large amount of carbs that I was consuming on a daily basis. There is also a noticable difference in my body composition. The skin around my chest, shoulders abs, and legs look much tighter and they appear more difined.

Side effects(10): There were no noticable sides that I experience. No running to the bathroom, or problems sleeping, none of that. Though I was disappointed to never experience a "food pump" as it claims to give.

Taste(10): Easy, its a pill there was no taste. I know some people complained that the pill as a gross taste but I have no clue what they are talking about, I didn't taste anything.

Value(8): AP is rather pricey, it can range from 35-55 dollars depending on where you get it. I got mine from massnutrition.com for around $37 which I didn't think was terrible but most other places you are looking around the $45 range which is a tad expensive for this product.

Overall(9): Overall I am very pleased with Anabolic Pump, I gained solid muscle and strength, lost body fat and got to eat a ton of delicious carbs along the way!

Hey guys, how's it going? I haven't done a review in awhile. However, the past several months I've been in a bulking phase and have used several different supplements along with my diet and work in the gym to help me obtain my goals. I did use many USP labs products because they're always worth a place in most stacks...Prime, Pink Magic, Powerfull, and ANABOLIC PUMP...I ran them all together, and a couple by themselves before and after the Asteroid Stack + Pink Magic...Now on to the product you want to hear about...

Anabolic Pump basically allows you to store carbohydrates in muscle cells (as glycogen) and deter you from storing them in fat cells which would obviously lead to fat gain...It does this by activating a hormone called GLUT4 in all muscle cells and keep the GLUT4 in all fat cells dormant...so you can expect from hearing this to be in a constant anabolic window to help you build muscle easier and to prevent fat gain. This product claims to give you massive pumps even better than NO induced pumps. So basically it is truly supposed to be a "genetic equilizer" So now i shall tell you what I experienced with Anabolic Pump.

I used it with Prime, Pink Magic, Powerfull, Neurocore, Yok3d, Vitargo, Hydro Whey, MM Sport, Fish Oil

Ingredients- Phellodendron (Bark) and Crape Mertle(Stem)...ok I don't really know what these actually do individually...but they have been used in animal studies...keep that in mind...to show its effectiveness with carb repartitioning...I won't dispute those studies in animals to show how it works...but these studies weren't done on humans, which is a red flag in my opinion...

Dosage- 1 capsule 15-20 mins before Carbohydrate containing meals. Not really that hard to do, I just made sure i had at least 80 g of carbs, usually brown rice, oats, whole wheat pasta, carb powders...etc

Value- Not really good value here, it's anywhere from 35 to 65 depending on where you get it...so value is a negative aspect for sure

Effectiveness- If you've ever experienced a glycogen rush from fast absorbing carbs, you know it feels good. I really noticed a full muscle feeling more than normal during breakfast while using AP...the oatmeal i ate felt like i just used some Vitargo or Power Carb, which was pretty nice...So i did have a bit of a food pump then...my muscles were hungry after my sleep so I think that played into it, but it was more pronounced when using AP...other meals were average and decent glycogen rushes...I also used anabolic pump post workout with my Vitargo...and i didn't really notice any more intense food pump because Vitargo is amazing and gives you that glycogen rush on its own...but one positive aspect, a few times i ran out of Vitargo, and just used some oatmeal post workout with my Hydro Whey and used AP, and I did notice a nice glycogen rush, just like a had at breakfast. Again that is probably helped by myself naturally activing GLUT4 in muscle cells by working out..but I've had just oatmeal and Hydrowhey several times postworkout and with AP it seemed to be much more pronounced into my muscles. I think AP does help you utilize carbs better than without it...i felt my carbs were actually utilized more by my muscles and not as much of a bloating feeling and carb coma.

Results- Since I did use this with other products, it's tough to judge the effectiveness solely from AP...however, in the time that I was using it (1 month...I used a 2nd bottle of prime, pink magic, powerfull) I gained about 5 lbs (during the time using AP)...and just looking in the mirror i really didn't notice as much of a fat increase than usual but i didn't just use this product alone and i pushed myself hard in the gym...my strength gains were steady and going up each week, but i train to increase weight and intensity each workout to prevent plateuing so its not like AP will magically add 10 lbs to my bench...but on a good note i felt carbs were used a little bit better and prevented bloating a bit...but do i think it's worth the hefty price? not really...I'd rather keep 40 bucks a month instead of run this product.

Overall, I think this product is a lot of hype and some placebo effects...I do think it helps you with carbs and glycogen replenshing...and can support bulking with less fat gain...but it's just not worth the price...for me at least

Some boxes of AP have a before and after picture of a guy named Armando something, going from fat and puffy to legit shredded and swollen...it tries to make you think he got those incredible results from Anabolic Pump...I'm sure he did use AP to get those results...along with Anavar, Winstrol, and Clenbuterol...Come on now USP labs, are you old Muscletech? haha you won't get rediculous results from AP as that picutre would make you think...but I think it's worth a try at least once...I may have been average with my satisfaction, but USP labs have made amazing products such as Jack3d, Oxyelite Pro, and Modern BCAA, some of the best in their categories...I didn't feel that I wasted money on AP, I had to try it and see how my body would respond, it was average as I said...It's a bit expensive for the benefits I received...but I'd say try it once and if you get really noticeable results as some people may have out there, then make it a consistent addition to your stack, if you don't notice anything...then don't use it again...simple as that...any USP lab product is worth at least 1 try in my opinion, so good luck and happy lifting!

AP worked great I took it for three months, it increased my energy, strength, and got ripped with my veins showing when not working out "my co-workers thought I was using something else". I did notice my muscles becoming more define. I known this worked for me. Plus I got my supplyfor free.
