Hyphy Mud... The Prison Pre-Workout Supplement
Here's What You'll Need...
- 1 cup (don’t use your shaker for this)
- 1 mixing spoon
- 1 – 2 heaped teaspoons of instant coffee
- 200mls of dark soda (Pepsi or Coca Cola will do the trick)
Here's How To Make It...
Place 1 or 2 heaped teaspoons of instant coffee of your choice in the bottom of your cup or glass (amount of coffee dependent on your level of stimulant tolerance).
Top up your glass or cup with dark soda, I find 200ml to be the sweet spot.
Stir your instant coffee and dark soda together.
Drink while you start your workout.
3 Mistakes To Avoid...
- Don't use ground coffee, it won't dissolve - stick to instant coffee
- Use a large cup and only fill it at maximum half full with your soda, otherwise the instant coffee will cause it to bubble and overflow
- Drink your hyphy mud as you begin your workout, not before - this stuff kicks in quick and you don't want to be crashing at the mid point of your workout
4 Reasons Why You Should Try Hyphy Mud...
"SJ isn't there just another pre-workout supplement? Why should I bother trying it?"
Here's my take on that exact question:
It's Potent And Leads To Killer Workouts
The sugar and caffeine from the dark soda when combined with the caffeine from your instant coffee will send you on a mission to obliterate your workout, the majority of guys that try hyphy mud for the first time (with little to no expectations) are often blown away when they realize just how quick and powerful the focus and energy is upon hyphy mud kicking in.
The result?
Reduced rest between sets, attempting to lift increased weight and push out those last couple of reps to apply progressive overload...
You Probably Won't Need To Spend A Cent!
Buying an over the counter pre-workout supplement is expensive, here in Australia we're talking upwards of $50 for a small container, when you're on a budget this is far from an ideal purchase.
Utilizing my 'DIY Pre-workout' guide you're still going to need to go out and purchase a bunch of albeit cheap ingredients such as caffeine, beta alanine, citrulline malate and creatine as unless you've made your own pre-workout supplement at home before I doubt you have them laying around...
When it comes to making the ghetto prison pre-workout that is hyphy mud you've probably already got at least one half of the ingredients in your pantry! instant coffee and dark soda is all you need and if you haven't got them you're only looking at a couple of dollars outlay.
No Need To Wait Before Training... It Kicks In Fast
Unlike over the counter pre-workout supplements which I recommend consuming around 20~ minutes before you intend on kicking off your workout hyphy mud kicks in fast.
As a result of this and to ensure you're able to power through your workout with the full effects of your stimulants I recommend sipping on hyphy mud as you start your workout instead of jugging it back before you drive to the gym.
You'll Save Money To Spend On Things That Matter (Food!)
Supplements are just that, supplements.
Supplements are aimed to supplement an already sound workout and dieting approach.
Many newbies fail to understand this and blow all of their money on pre-workout powders and testosterone boosters which aren't worthy of the funds they cost.
The money you'll be saving on pre-workouts by making your own hyphy mud can be spent on quality food, ensuring you're hitting your caloric intake with high quality meats such as grass fed beef etc.
