Show Notes:
The BluePrint Power Hour
[7:11] How much muscle can I expect to grow from using premium protein, such as Thriv?
- It depends on the quality of your current protein intake and training/ sleep.
- Using a scarcity/ abundance approach may do a better job at building muscle as well.
[15:46] What type of creatine does Rob use, how much to use, and does it need to be cycled.
- Micronized creatine monohydrate- leads to extra water weight gain.
- Creatine HCl- Rob is able to use smaller doses.
- Krealkaline- 1500mg/day- strength increases with no water weight gain.
- Rob will take 4-8 weeks off from time to time.
- Take it post workout.
[20:20] What about ginseng? Talk is picking up on the boards.
- There is interesting research on specific extracts such as rg1 and rb1.
- The energy effect doesn’t feel like ephedrine or caffeine.
- Avoid low quality “gas station” ginseng.

- No studies in humans yet.
