Supplement reviews?

[Hines57]

Not real sure if this thread exist or not. I tried to do a search and couldnt find anything. I was wanting to try something new and I was wanting to see what everyone else has tried and liked or disliked and why? Im a big fan of all BSN products. I currently use No-xplod, Cell Mass, and Syntha 6

[lee earley]

where do you workout at? Nautilus in sherman?

I like no-xplod, but I try to change up my preworkouts, and am currently making my own with bulk products I get online for a third of the price. As for cellmass, I honestly don't notice any difference from it or any other creatine mix, so I don't waste my money on it. BUt Syntha-6 is some good tasting stuff, and that's a big plus for me, I try to keep about 5 or 6 different flavors of protein around so I look forward to my next shake.

I love the no xplod for the simple fact it gets me in the mood to work out and the mental focus is great but I think im gonna switch it up and try out the White flood from controlled labs. The main reason I like the BSN products is that you only need to take one scoop of cell mass postworkout and 2 of no xplod preworkout

Research on bodybuilding.com's forums.

Try NO Shotgun by VPX

Try NO Shotgun by VPX


I have been using this product for a while now. I like it a lot more than NO Xplode. I am pretty much pure BSN except this.

Yeah, the samples of that stuff you sent were great, I almost ordered some from you, but I'm gonna try out my new personal mix for awhile.

[DON SVO]

I did NOT like White Flood... it gave me a jittery feeling and tasted horrible (Lemonade flavor).

1. No3 Overload
2. NO-Xplode
3. Anything else... I'll pick up one of the first two before anything else.

Good thing you got it free. :D

LOL! It wasn't for me. I wanted to try it for some time too, which sucked. Oh well. I love everything else Controlled Labs puts out.

NO shotgun is doing it for me, 1 scoop is all I need, I been thinking about taking it with some gakic and see where that goes, (what do you think Greg)I used to be a big NO xplode fan but not anymore and the pheradrive is doing wonders thanks Greg (I'm a week in and 6.5 lbs. with proper diet of couse.......)

by the way #1 syntha 6
#2 musclemlk

[Nokturnal96]

Big fan of the NO Shotgun by VPX for preworkout. My favorite "sip" for the flavor and taste drink would be a Grape Speed Stack by ABB. For postworkout I LOVE Optimum Nutrition's After Max. Has all the good stuff all in one tub.

Awsome progress, we've been getting nothing but good reviews from PheraDrive and Pro-Stanivar...

Gakic is over priced muscle tech crap. Much cheaper through other companies.

[jnobles06]

i used to take no-xplod, but i switched to super-pump 250 and it kicks no-xpold's ass. i also am a fan of halodrol liquigels (really makes you just want to keep lifting and pissed off) my bench went up from 25 lbs in 3 weeks on it. muscle milk is the shit. i tastes like a milk shake.

[Hines57]

I think im gonna switch it up and try the NO-shotgun. Any recommendations on a post workout product? How is there NO-synthesize? Im still gonna be taking my syntha 6 but would like to switch things up and see if it helps

[Nokturnal96]

I love ON's After Max for postworkout. 40g Protein BLEND, 40g High Glycemic Carbs, 5g Creapure, 5g Glutamine, 1 g Taurine, and the usual BCAA's all in one beverage. It's easy for me and I dont have to mix and match Dextrose, Creatine, and glutamine etc, with my protein. The best thing is it taste great and only runs me about $30 a month.

[Ylw 98~~SNAKE~~]

BSN Atrophex works good for me. I take it a few hours before wking out and sometimes at work when i feel tired at 1am. I wouldnt take any more than 1 in a 24 hour period it can be extremely hard to sleep.

[jfrog]

I like the way the NO explode works, only thing is after about a week I can't drink it. It makes me gag?? tried mixing in other drinks and it still does the same. doesn't really taste bad to me. I did much better with the Black Powder, worked good but not as good as the NO explode.
Ive been looking at trying the Syntha 6, heard nothing but good reviews. are you guys mixing it with water or milk? I use milk in my whey protein Im using now because it taste much better.

Hey Greg is there anything I can do for the wicked muscle spasms? especially in the lower back. I got about a week left on the Pro stanivar. I noticed my kicks are getting crappy when I work the bag, constantly having to stretch. Doesn't take much to get a wicked pump on this stuff.

I had the same issue with E-pol/Halovar. I got back spasms so damn bad after deadlift day that I couldn't walk more than 50 feet without having to wait for the pain to subside so I could catch my breath. Are you using any creatine products?

[GRAYHORSE]

Some say that creatine with PH's give back pumps. I've always wondered what a back pump really was.

[jfrog]

Not using any creatine. it's been several days since working with the tractor tire and did some squats and deadlifts on wednesday, since then can't barely do anything without getting the back spasms. even when running sprints. also the day after I did squats/ deadlifts, I went for a jog to help recover and when I stopped jogging right above my knees started hurting bad and couldn't barely walk until I stretched my quads for a minute.
I guess the only good thing about the back pump is it forces you to walk with almost perfect posture. :D

If it's effecting you that bad maybe you should just start a PCT now.

havent posted in a while. just wanted to update. the prostanivar works great. I believe i would have had better results if i worked harder on the diet part. also i saw on another forum that taurine would help with the back pumps. used reversitol from Iforce as PCT and worked great also. actually kept my gains and maybe more. just had to change my work out from low rep/ high weight to high rep/ low weight because it was affecting my muscle endurance in the boxing/kickboxing.
Only thing now is my liver enzymes are still elevated and waiting/ hoping for them to come down by end of April or else i get a liver biopsy :(
now my overall diet is improving (no starches) and continue to hit the gym regularly switching weights, punching/kicking the bag and jogging with some sprint intervals

Look into Organ Shield. It's only around $17.

will do, thanks
