9/10 for assault,tastes sweet & has a medicine aftertaste
9/10 for ON blueberry....tastes like Jello more then anything.


10 for extreme chocolate milk,mixing it with milk Really make's it taste like chocolate milk you buy in the jug at store's.
haven't tried the banana cream yet.


the thing i like about the pre-work out's it that it makes you feel pumped but not over the edge Paranoid ripped on Caffeine...you know that feeling of being unable to sleep because your ripped on energy

[Phozy]

:heckno: I have a hard enough time getting up at 8 LOL

Well, youre only tired cause you dont get enough sleep right? Try sleeping at 9 and waking at 6, youll love it :D
Yeah, its all time management for me, no more time to spend on RS :troll: havent played games in a month, pretty good when it usesd to be hours daily haha

Say, if i were to order 5lbs of ON whey. the price would come out as 60 including shipping and taxes? (assuming 5lbs is $48?), better if i just get it somewhere local?

[kevin7352]

Well Popeye's sells their 5 lbs tubs of myofusion for $59.99+tax for 1 and $100+tax for 2, which is pretty much the price you're gonna pay for it on bb.com (1 tub myofusion $49.99)

don't know about ON. but they do sell it.

[Fcukedd]

ON Whey is $59.95 at xFuel, and the same with a GNC gold card.

It's definitely better buying it locally unless you are planning to grab other stuff as well.

why would you use a fat burner...

Just take a preworkout or simply eat more frequently and drink a lot of water..



but i use therma lean strictly as a stimulant before my games, take 2 pills on empty stomach an hour or so prior to my game and my stamina is through the roof, especially in my legs which is the sole reason i take it, i got very bad blood flow through my thighs... this shit gets my heart pumpin harder and i get normal flow in my lower body....
so nice useless fail AAnthony, thumbs up brah

without this shit, i mean it sucks having the power in your legs to dunk a basketball at only 6'1 but not having any leg stamina after only like a half hour of running... shit blows, and i havent found anything other than therma lean that keeps me runnin for hours on end.. if you guys got suggestions im open to them

enhanced nutrition in burnaby apparently had some, but they got raided by cops the other day, and like Skinny suggested YVS, called them they hadnt stocked any in over a year

[hal0g0dv2]

dont get me wrong that is fine taking that stuff, but it is not good to rely on your body wanting that and only reason to play good ball so you have to take that stuff, its fine once and a while but if u r going to be taking it for a long time might not be the best for your heart

[G-spec]

^ fully agree, I know just by the fcked up side effects it gives me it ain't good for the heart the ephedra... I been on it for the last few years though, few months on few months off... for the months i'm on it, i take a dose every weekend for my games...

I don't wanna take them but due to my medical condition it's pretty much a must, I need to perform 100% when I play the same way you guys need to be goin all out in the gym, without it i can honestly say I am only able to put out about 60% to 70% as opposed to the 100% when I'm on it.

I've been actively looking for a healthier replacement that gives the same results for last 2 years now without luck, but it seems like ephedra is boss...
you guys have more knowledge on supplements than me, maybe one of you can suggest something that would provide me with good results without the health risks ephedra carries

So what do people like about Assault? From what I can tell, the only ingredient that actually works in preworkout supplements is the caffeine. Everything else is just whacky stuff added for goofiness.

So since Assault doesn't have caffeine in it (from what I can tell) what does it do for you?

Caffeine is actually extremely good for you, in the right amounts. Study after study shows this...

But yeah, you don't want to take more than your body can handle.

To me, assault looks like one of those supplements where they just take whatever is trendy, and put it all into one supplement. Beta alanine is great, but it's not a pre-workout supplement, especially not 4g only on workout days. BCAAs are awesome, but you need a lot more than 6g preworkout to get anything from them. Creatine fine, I prefer not to use it before workout though, as it can dehydrate you and cause cramping. Add a bunch of other "stuff" and some 'pump' ingredients, and I honestly can't see why people are raving about it so much. It must taste really fucken good!

Edit: I see that it does have caffeine. So there ya go :)

All the PWOs basically have the same ingredients. Maybe you should compare the labels and see what Assault has that the others don't.

For me I dont find pre-workout puts me "in the zone." I have to mentally be in it that day. Some days I'm super pumped to go, other days I go and have so-so workouts. But those are usually the days where I'm tired. The caffeine and stimulants are what get me going and then amplifies my focus (for me anyway)

On that note, I've got a tub of MP Assault fruit punch that I dont want. I've only used 3/4 of a scoope, I just prefer 1MR.

I dunno how much you guys are buying it for on BB.com, but I bought mine for $64.95+tax at reflex. I'd let it go for $50

[Excelsis]

unless you're going for competition where you need to be under a strict diet i wouldn't do it, you're going to lose a lot of muscle that way; your energy will start coming from muscles and not carbs

[G-spec]

I hear ya Alpha but I'm not that concerned about muscle loss, my body naturally good at keepin my frame and size the way it is no matter what I do... I was 5'10 and lean 170lbs+ in like grade 8, good family genes..
My only goals are to keep my fat between 5% and 10% for as many years as I can, and training to turn on as many fast twitch muscle fibers as I can for explosiveness, not really about massive size.

What are you guys working out for ? just for the looks & health benefit? or is it for sport performance, hockey or whatever ??

I dont know how accurate the tank was though at the time, it's usually one of the better testing forms

I workout because it keeps me disciplined and gives me a sense of self confidence and accomplishment, something that I lacked and lost. Also for all the little things like looks, health, and strength. I do more strength training than hypertrophy, rather be strong-lean then bulky/lift as much as the guy who's 50lbs lighter

Assault (pre workout stim, chose it because ORANGE MANGO sounds awesome)
AmiNO Energy (my breakfast essentially)
Bodybuilding.com "Amino Plus Energy" (basically a ripoff of AmNO energy, but with BCAAs and cheaper. If it tastes good I'll switch)
Xtend (more BCAA)
BCAA (more BCAA)
Universal Creatine Mono
Monster Milk - Strawberry (I don't drink much protein shakes anymore, but when I do I want a tasty one)
NOW Omega 3 (for my cats, I user their uber concentrated stuff)
Free gift: LIFTING STRAPS. Don't plan on using them, but I have about 10 bb.com t-shirts, fat caliper, and everything else I would want

Yeah man they copy pretty much every popular supplement. I don't use a lot of different supps though, I like to keep it simple. But maybe I'll try their stim sometime or their BCAA drink.

My supplement regime consists of:

pre workout stim
LOTS of BCAA
creatine + beta alanine
protein shakes

[mc25]

Tried 1MR pina colada (mixed with Beta Alanine), hated the flavour..super sweet and medicine tasting. Did notice a little pep though.

Skinny, all that BCAA, wont you just be pissing 90% of it out? You suggested 10G of AA, is that of each AA or total AA's?

[SkinnyPupp]

10G total with the typical 2-1-1 ratio (although you could add an extra scoop of leucine to improve that ratio)

This is if you are training fasted, which you should be doing if your goal is body recomposition

[SkinnyPupp]

Oh for FUCK sake, my bb.com order was sent "super saver" for some fucking reason. I double and triple check my shipping method, but somehow it got switched. Now I have to wait 3 WEEKS instead of 3 DAYS for a savings of $5 :fuuuuu:

The reason you have to take so many pills is because the vitamins are chelated to amino acids.. therefore it's more like 'real food' than a pill that is just a bunch of vitamins compressed into a tablet.

Any really good MV will be at least 5-6 pills to get >100% RDA. It's up to you if that's worth the $
ok thx for the heads up. i'll stick with opti-men

Don't bother with CLA

As for BCAA, it depends on your training goals. What I do for body recomp is train fasted. I add 10g pure BCAA +3g leucine to my PWO, and take 2 servings of Xtend (which is another 14g BCAA) with beta 4g alanine added.

anything in specific to look for when getting zma? musclepharms zma contains an additonal 3mg melatonin per capsule on top of the zinc and magnesium, and u only need 1 cap per night, its $23 at reflex locally, would this be a good buy?

Don't get the one with melatonin, it will build in tolerance and you WILL get insomnia. What a stupid idea! 3mg isnt a small dose either!

[SkinnyPupp]

Capsules won't last long.. but then powder is nasty. IMO the easiest way to take BCAA is a drink like Xtend or Atomic 7, then add leucine to it to improve the ratio. And add leucine to all your shakes and drinks. It's not as nasty as the other BCAA's and mixes better.

I have capped my own BCAA pills but it's kind of a pain in the ass. Capping leucine is really messy, as it sticks to EVERYTHING.

So I woould say,

-Amino drink (tons to choose from)
-Leucine powder (get whatever is cheap)
-Leucine pills (to take with meals)

With volume like that, you guys would benefit like crazy from beta alanine. Ever try it?


nope, seems pricey to me. and from what ive read its more of a cardio/runner kinda supplment?

[SkinnyPupp]

Pricey - not really.

Bodybuilding.com Supplements Beta Alanine Powder at Bodybuilding.com: Lowest Prices for Beta Alanine Powder! (http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/bodybuilding-supplements/beta-alanine.html)

500g will last you 2 months at $18

And it's not for cardio, it's good for anyone doing strength training. But it is BETTER for higher reps/higher volume that I see you and RRxtar do, compared to creatine which is better for low reps, high weight.

A combination of the two is killer.

I would also recommend HMB for the style of training you guys do, but that one IS really expensive.

Beta Alanine is worth it IMO. $10 a month, take 8g a day.

I know you're not a supplement whore, but IMO beta alanine is going to be one of those staple supplements, like creatine and caffeine.

[RRxtar]

im getting ready for a big order of supps here pretty quick. maybe ill add some BA too.

edit: FUCK i did it again i ran out of superpump before i ordered more. off to popeyes i go tomorrow.


also, if you guys havent tried superpumpMAX yet, give it a go. fruit punch tastes like red popcicles and i swear to god ive never worked out the way i have for the last 2 months before. i feel like Ive got the energy of Jason Statham in Crank while feeling like i have the swagger of Jason Statham in the Transporter.

I might try it after checking out Assault. I didn't like SuperPump250 very much, it tasted like battery acid

Hold off on the MAX!!!!
Bodybuilding.com has a special, superdump max for $39, and you get a free tub of Gaspari creatine (60 servings). I'm probably going to order up some BCAA's too since I never had it before, I wanna see what all the hype is about. Most likely i'm going to go with the ON capsules; 400 for $23.
Along with:
1-2 bottles of Ascenta Nutrasea
Some sort of greens supplement
Possibly a multi-vitamin

[AAnthony]

If you're getting BCAA caps, stick with ON BCAA.

Wait, now i'm really confused. You say stick with ON, but even if i'm quadruple dosing ON i'm still getting 1000mg less Leucine + Valine.
I don't even know what either of those are, but i'm getting less of them!

You get used to it though. After a few weeks you pretty much don't feel anything at all. Also, caffeine makes it worse, so if it's uncomfortable, don't take it with caffeine.

take it with hot water and put some on your lip

[SkinnyPupp]

should i be taking it as 1.5g three times a day?
If that's most comfortable, sure. Maybe 4-6x a day though. I'm not sure what your BW is, but you will probably want to take 8-10g a day at least for the first month. Take the largest dose that is comfortable maybe. For me I have been taking it for quite a while so I just do two 4g scoops a day. It dissolves completely and is basically tasteless.

Remember it's like creatine, it has to build up before it takes effect.

I know people have recommended Opti-men as a multi vitamin in the past. Is there any other multi I should consider?

Also, I recall when I first started taking fish oil, I would feel well rested when I woke up in the morning. I didn't feel like I was still tired. But when I stopped taking it for about a week, when I started again, I didn't have that well rested feeling anymore. I slept the same amount of hours (8), but I'd feel tired again in the morning.

I realize this may sound bizarre, but would taking a multi vitamin make things better in the morning for me?

I'm a bit of a marketing freak, I like to observe how things are marketed. And I have to say out of all the supplement companies, I don't think anyone does it better than Universal

[RRxtar]

from what ive been reading about beta alanine, it basically helps your muscles delay the 'burn' a little bit (in normal person terms) so you might be able to run a little farther, or lift an extra rep. where as creatine may allow you to lift an extra 10%. apparently both together are deadly. i cant wait to start my next creatine cycle.

i havent felt the BA tingle yet. been spreading it out thru the day, will try a bigger dose before the gym next time.

[RRxtar]

for those asking about multi's

How to select a multi and why yours is probably garbage!

I'm sick of seeing threads on what multi to buy and then reading responses suggesting the latest crap on the market as the best. The truth is most of the multi's today are a complete waste of money and not even worth taking so I decided to make this thread telling everyone how to select a multi. Hopefully it can be bumped often so people don't need to start new threads.

The FIRST ingredient you need to look at is the vitamin B12. The reason this is the most important is because 1) it's the most expensive component in the multi and 2) it needs to be in high enough doses to be effective. B12 powers your nerves and liver function and you need a lot more than the government recommended amount (6mcg).

The cheap, inexpensive form of B12 is called cyanocobalamin. This is an inert form of B12 meaning that the cobalamin molecule has been stabilized with a cyanide molecule. This is bad because when your body has to metabolize it, it breaks it down, strips away the front end molecule (which is cyanide) and then you have to detoxify that cyanide.

So why is this bad? Because first you have to detoxify the cyanide and then it robs energy from your cells just to make it useful which is difficult if you are tired, stressed etc. Not ideal when cutting.

What you want to look for is a co-enzyme form of B12. Methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin. The methylcobalamin is exactly what your liver uses as methylation reactions which power a lot of your natural biochemistry. Adenosylcobalamin is used to assemble proteins in your body and is a key marker of aging. If you don't have enough adenosylcobalamin your body can't make proteins and ages much faster.

So why is this better? Well if you have a form of a vitamin that is exactly what your body uses then it goes right into your metabolism and does its job.

So what if it's a blend of methyl and cyano etc? Well, this is simply the company being deceptive. Methylcobalamin costs literally 10 times the amount as cyanocobalamin so the company wants to use as much as the cheap stuff as possible but still have the word methylcobalamin on their label so you think it's good quality.

Food based nutrients (greens supplements).

Lets look at chlorella first. What does it do? It absorbs toxins, metals and lead etc. Perfect if you eat a lot of tuna because it will help absorb/break down the mercury in the tuna. Quality all depends on where it's sourced. Does it come from the centre of a lake or does it come from irrigation channels dug around the lake? Is it grown hydroponically? This is important because you don't want your chlorella to be laced with mercury and other crap when that's the reason you're taking it in the first place.

Minerals.

Lettuce be reality, all minerals are natural so that's not something to be worried about. What you want to look for is how the mineral is structured. So when a plant absorbs minerals and builds them into its structure we get organic minerals which are biologically bound in a way which is more compatible to how we, as humans, have evolved. Iron is a perfect example of this. If you're getting iron through your water for instance, that's going to be a highly reactive compound, potentially toxic and destructive to health. However, if you get iron from something like spinach, it's been structured with proteins and is in a form that your body knows what to do with it. So you want a form connected to proteins or a form biologically bound to something your body uses in its metabolism.

Magnesium.

Magnesium is in short supply in our food and is a critical mineral to your health for your heart, muscles etc.

Magnesium oxide is the cheap form of magnesium. The oxide itself is oxygen generating compound so when your body has to use it, it strips the oxide from the magnesium before it can use it and now you have oxides in your system. So how do you get rid of oxides? You use antioxidants (vitamin c, vitamin e, beta carotene etc). Why on earth would you want to waste your antioxidants on something you just took for your health? Makes no sense at all. Inert forms of magnesium such as magnesium gluconate, which is a sugar containing molecule of magnesium, is about 10% magnesium and 90% glucose. Not at all what your body needs.

So what are the higher quality forms of magnesium? Magnesium bis-glycinate which is magnesium double bonded to the amino acid glycine. This is the most expensive form of magnesium you can buy. So what does it do? Well, it's absorbed as a food, it doesn't even need to bind to mineral receptors. This is good because if your body isn't working quite right or you have competition for mineral absorption it doesn't matter. Next, because it's bonded to glycine it goes to your liver to help detoxification and to your nervous system to help it relax. So the magnesium goes straight in with it. This is critically important in people who are fatigued because cells all over your body have to pump magnesium inside themselves. However, the pump needs magnesium to work in the first place so if you're deficient in magnesium and your pump doesn't work you can take magnesium oxide until you're blue in the face and none of it will make it to your cells because you can't get it there. So the best way to make magnesium is to chelate it with things that go into cells. We also have magnesium malate (malic acid). Malic acid is the best compound on earth for muscle fatigue. Perfect for athletes. It will delay the onset of lactic acid so great for cutting and doing cardio.

What to look out for.

Amino acid chelate. This sounds great and it does absorb better but what is it? Well usually it's hydrolysed soy protein and you still don't know what form of magnesium was bound to that soy protein. Some companies use calcium formate which is a chemical used to accelerate concrete hardening. Not good.

Forms of multivitamins.

Capsules vs tablets? Capsules break down easier and it's easier to absorb the nutrients in them. Vege caps are the best hands down because the vegetable fibre they are made of comes from a nice vegetarian source. Gelatin is fine too but there have been a few scares that they may contain mad cow disease (gelatin comes from beef). Overall though, not something to worry about. Tablets generally use a glue like substance to hold it all together. Usually this is dicalcium phosphate which sounds nice but it's essentially just a glue. Then you have to coat the tablet and companies generally use a coloured coating which is intended to mask the smell. After that you need to glaze the tablet and companies use what's called pharmaceutical glaze (shellac) which comes from a bug. Tablets also tend to just run right through people due to the fact they are basically like a tiny piece of cement all glued together.

I hope this helps a few people out.

whos done an EC stack from ~12% or under BF? how long were you on and what were your results? bf% is irrelevent, i just mean for someone whos already on the leaner side.

im in the middle of my bulk right now but already planning my cut for middle of may

aiming for better than 195 by then, with plans to cut 15-18 lbs of bodyfat.

i think i can probably burn off in 5 weeks based on what i did in 2011 simply thru diet adjustment (low carb), but if things dont go quite so well or i want to go farther, i want to have my plan sorted out. or even if i just want to accelerate the cut.

[flawless]

Just curious, can I stack 1mr with a dose of beta-alinine? And use purple wraath as a intra-workout? Followed by a post protein shake? Or am I gonna waste money and shorten my life expectancy? Lol

That is not going to do much for weight/ body fat
Make sure your diet is fine and this is all u need. I mean you could take ec stack if u want to get lower but protein won't do much for body weight

ECA for sure. Noticed the biggest "fat burned" while on this then trying anything else such as ripped freak. highly recommended :P and i'm currently still doing it lol

^ for assault i take full scoop

[TypeRNammer]

I have a friend that took a full scoop and told me that he can barely breathe during his work out.

When I took a full scoop it gave me a good burst of energy during the work out, but once my muscles give out, I still feel too much energy left over from it.

u work out for 2 1/2 hours? anyways, i dont recommend taking assault after 7. whenever i use to take it anytime after 7, i would get insomnia. wouldnt be able to sleep until 4-6am.

yup,i work out that long doing bench presses,Overhead Triceps,with 5 minute breaks between,Most hard workout is squats IMO,i checked my heart beats per minute using the tread mill after for a light jog and it was 170 slowly counting down..After just raging on it lol..

and yeah,pretty much gave myself insomnia taking the pre-workout Supplement,Warning to anyone else,screws your sleeping habit up taking it late in the day

[Excelsis]

shit how do you guys get so stimulated from these

ya i usually can't sleep when i take assault after 6pm.
but fuck...that stuff is crazy. i lift pretty strong throughout my whole workout :thumbs:
does anyone's skin get kinda dry though 10min after taking it?

dude alpha how are you so immune to these is the real question

[truth]

I don't have trouble sleeping after (I only take half a scoop) and I usually take it around 8:30pm. However, sometimes I wake up in the morning with a raging boner more so than usual and the urge to fap keeps me awake and I can't go back to sleep.

[Mr.Money]

shit how do you guys get so stimulated from these

myself i don't drink or smoke weed,or let alone have any stimulants like Redbull where it give's my body a chance to be sensitized to Energy supplements, I don't even Take Pain Killers when i'm sick or ill

think that has something to do with it,I'm kinda of caffeine sensitive too,tried a Nos energy drink one time & Fuck was i wired,40 hours up just paranoid as nut case,Hot Shower didn't calm me down worth CRAP.

How much water do you drink?,you probably already know but it says on the cover to drink a minimum of 1 gallon of water daily while on it,what is about 3.7L of water,i Drank 2L of water but i was pissing like race horse every 10 minutes about 6 time's....more worried about water intoxication then following their recommendation,What do you Guy's think about that???..

i Get dry skin too,but i don't know if it the winter weather,or the hot showers after working out,i take Omega-3 Krill oil too,good for the Joint's & skin

[Excelsis]

lmao you won't get water intoxicated for drinking 2 litres, i drink around 7 and i'm good

if you drink 10 litres or more then probably..

[Mr.Money]

oh,i meant muscle pharm's assault label that recommends to drink a minimum of 1 gallon of water daily while taking their product...3.7L of water..

i kind of thought that was alot,but it all depend's on your own body weight.

Shitt...7 Liters of water???...haha!..

Drink 4 of these suckers down for 7L
http://consumerist.com/2010/03/18/DoubleGulp-example1.jpg
:accepted:,water of course.

[kevin7352]

anyone got popeye bucks they don't need?

[Gh0stRider]

ive been taking 1/2 scoops of assault. how much water you guys using? 8oz? or more? does it matter?

[RRxtar]

in the summer i drink 6-8 liters of water a day no sweat. k lots of sweat. gotta make sure youre taking in electrolytes to go with all the water too.


as for the stims, alpha do you get NOTHING from them? i mean, taking a scoop of pre-workout isnt going to make you fly off like an 8ball of blow. lots of the time i dont actually 'feel' anything. but it does make me get off the couch at the absolute very least.

what have you tried other than assault? try taking a 1 scoop sized sample on an empty stomach of superpumpMAX (altho dont if you get drug tested according to the label), and check your heart rate before, and 45 minutes after. but dont do anything other than lay down. see if your heart rate goes up at all or if your head feels like you gotta go focus on something.

[Excelsis]

lol first time i tried razor8 i was like wtf is this shit, am i supposed to feel any different?

next i tried was assault when spending an all nighter, still felt nothing i said i was shaking but that was because it was 18 degrees in my house lol

then tried 2 scoops of that, meh no difference

[Supafly]

Try the 1MR....one full scoop in 6oz of water...BING!
