Looking forward to you telling us how it works out for you. I'm especially interested in what you'll say about dropping the different energy drinks/products you use regularly. I say this because I can honestly say that since they all came on the scene I have never tried any, not a single one. But, all the young guys (mid/late 30's all of them) I worked with until just recently retiring downed any and all in copious amounts. If energy was on the label they were all in (NOS, monster,5 hr. energy, energy stuff in a tube from Costco??, super caffeine shots, etc.). Good luck!

PS: if you do start to struggle along the way I recommend you get something hops based (usually found in a brown bottle) and a popular Italian product consisting of dough, gravy, cheese and pepperoni. This on a recovery day should help.
