Platinum Labs should’ve stuck with Creatine Monohydrate – Creatine Monohydrate’s been used since the 1990’s, and everyone knows it works. However, there hasn’t been many studies conducted on this ingredient, meaning it’s unreliable. Not only that, participants took 1,300mg doses in studies that proved it alleviates pain – there’s only 750mg in Defcon 1, meaning it might not even be effective in this pre workout.Īlso known as Creatine Hydrochloride, it’s a form of Creatine that’s believed to be more water soluble than the more popular Creatine Monohydrate. This has shown to reduce pain and depression in studies, but it’s not a key pre workout ingredient. While there isn’t really anything negative about L-Taurine, it’s not a key pre workout ingredient. This is an organic acid that contains sulfur. What’s paresthesia? Well, it’s a tingling on the skin of your face, chest, hands, and extremities – not life threatening, but enough to ruin your workout.ĭefcon 1 contains a huge 2,000mg (2g) of Beta-Alanine, meaning you’re almost certain to experience this side effect. But it can also cause paresthesia in doses over 0.8-1g. This molecule is added into pre workout supplements, as it can improve muscular endurance. One positive straight away, is that Defcon 1 doesn’t contain any propietary blends – meaning you know exactly what you’re getting, as no ingredients are hidden in any blends.īut once you look deeper into its ingredient list, we saw some key ingredients, mixed with some potentially harmful ones. But apart from that, there wasn’t much more information available online. They market a range of products, from pre workouts to fat burners. Platinum Labs is a supplements company that prides themselves on “providing the highest standard of innovative consumer health products in the world”. The narrator was excellent with good inflection and pace to keep the story moving at the right pace but with real emotion.Defcon 1 has quite a large nutrient profile – but is it effective? In this review, we’ll take you through the pros and cons, to show you how good this pre workout really is. I found the characters solid and believable and I thought the discussions in White House situation room about possible US response not only believable but with the emotions felt by the participants made it feel like the reader was in the room an unseen witness the soul searching discussions. The action scenes are tense, well written (up there with the best of Clancy and Bond). Add into this naval and air battles and it all makes up a really exciting read. A deep cover agent in the Kremlin has news of the plot, and there is a plan in place to return him to the US with the news, but he and his CIA handler are discovered and what should have been a simple extraction turns into a fight for live across the frozen wastes of Russia. It is a somewhat strange plan as it begins by antagonising the US almost to the brink of war, then pulling back and planning on striking when the US relaxed it's defensive posture. This is a fast paced cold war geo-political thriller that has the 2 superpowers USA and USSR standing off against each other as belligerent and hard line new Soviet General Secretary sets out plans to launch a pre-emptive strike against the US. I had always thought I could happily read some pretty trashy ridiculous light books, it seems I have limits. If you do find yourself part way through the book and are hoping it gets better, um, it doesn't. This narrator may work for some pretty specific books but here, he was as bad as the book and at least in this case, two negatives most definitely didn't make a positive. Sometimes a gifted narrator can rescue some pretty average story telling, this is not one of those times. The characters, well character is probably too strong a word, the dialog, best not mentioned, even the plot execution was pretty disjointed. This is really not good writing, actually the more you think about it, the worse you have to admit the writing is. The basic premise, that the Soviet Union elected to embark on a nuclear strike rather than concede the cold war I thought had some potential. I wanted to enjoy this book, I even finished it though I couldn't explain why.
