    Default Ask me about a supplement- Sports Nutrition, libido, anything,I'll give you the goods

    After doing an annual line revue for GNC there's alot I learned in this industry. The credibilty of some products are completely shot and advertising has more to do what people buy then what is actually good. Also impact products don't neccessarily mean better, ex-Superpump 250. High caffine, lower NO levels.
    Also this is not to boost the good name of GNC, I'll even be honest with my products, just giving my fellow posters here a good consumer report so they know what they're getting into. Where you purchase in the end makes no difference to me.

    Say my girl is a very prude, conservative 50s-ish blonde-haired blue-eyed Churchgirl who vows now to break her vow of chastity until a year after marriage.

    Hypothetically.. would a meal of oysters, *insert choice of a la carte here*, redwine, and chocolate cake for dessert provide for a sexual opportunity?


    Also does consuming large amounts of Whey Protein for about three months, and laying off for six, (granted macros are reached) lead to muscle loss?

    Ive taken a few months off at the gym due to a back injury. I am finally getting my strength back and am going to get back into the routine. What in your opinion is the best line of creatine that you have come across? Is there a supplement to use when you are getting back into the rhythm? I know there are joint pills to take, but are there other injury prevention supplements?

    Oysters are more of a male libido enhancer and red wine is for vasodialation. This will give a good hardon for you but will have little effect on your honey, other than get her drunk.
    Chocolate stimulates the same part of the brain as sex. So in turn it's an alternative, not an enhancer.


    Also does consuming large amounts of Whey Protein for about three months, and laying off for six, (granted macros are reached) lead to muscle loss?
    If you are consuming the same amount in replacement, not at all. Remember this, when prtotein is fully metabolized your body will distinguish it no differently from a fish, chicken, egg, or any other source of protein. Only differences are how complete the amino acid profile is and the speed it absorbs. Other by weight, no difference.

    None sold by us.

    Although we were talking about this in the office and he did reference GNC as a place he bought suppy's from. Any press is good press right?

    I started at around 208+ lbs on January 1st and I weigh around 196 now (I'm around 5'11" btw) and I don't really monitor what I eat. I try to have protein in each of my meals and avoid carbs after 5.

    I do have some energy pills, but I'm trying to lose weight naturally. I'm thinking of getting to 170 or so and bulk up and stay around 180.

    Thoughts?

    We actually came out with a product called Amplified creatine. It's a creatine monohydrate bonded to a hydrochloride molecule. This acts as a buffer to prevent high acidity and better absorption. It also is mixed with glycol, a very high glycemic sugar. You body will process this immediately and efficiently. Because of the nature of this product Only .625 grams of creatine per serving as opposed to 5 grams in regular products. This means less waste products and less bloating. We also shelled out big bucks to get this clinically proven. Maybe only 5% of products out there have actually clinical research.

    Others I endorse for strictly creatine- Dymatize expand, purple K

    Is there a supplement to use when you are getting back into the rhythm?
    Preworkouts are a good choice. Although it's still technically a creatine product, it's in a different category. While creatine is best post workout, these supplements are pre. They contain NO boosters, stimulants both adrenal and cognitive. I'm a fan of Armeggedon by Star Chem labs. Rememeber, protein is the most important. 80% of results come from repair and regeneration.


    I know there are joint pills to take, but are there other injury prevention supplements?

    For your joints take glucosamine. It's the base compound in which cartiledge is made from. It also increases senovial fuild, the fluid around your joints.
    Omega 3's from fish or flax may also work as a joint lubricator. That and it's a natural anti-imflammatory.

    Lol, well he said he bought Ripped Fuel from GNC but the product you're refering to is Primobolan. It's a milder steroid that has both oral and injectable use.

    Really hito, at the end of the day it's all food. Firts I'd recommend aquiring 1 gram per pound of bodyweight in terms of protein. Now due to the nature of protein and the fact that it consumes alot of fuel to convert protein to muscle you have to at least acquire a 1:1 ratio of protein to carb. Increasing more carbs will determine size gains.

    For supplements there's this new product called Dark Matter by MHP. Not necessarily for bulk but for more efficient protein uptake and nutrtient repleneshment post workout. It uses waxy maize. This may cause an immediate spike in insulin and create a good anabolic window for protein/nutrients to absorb.

    Sorry, I thought you were following up as rufus.

    Reality is that it's likely length won't increase, but it is possible to increase overall volume. Most products work by increasing erectile chambers. Mostly due to enhancing blood flow with the combination of libido enhancing hormones. Constant flow into this area can have permanent gains. Extenze has been a real good seller for us and I've literally seen return ed satisfied customers (and their girlfriends) return.
