USN

Does it look like USN is taking money out of peoples pockets?

I mean i wake up every morning i watch this morning show(before work)on SABC 3 and see how much USN bullshits people into buying all these supplements that they really dnt need.. I mean prework outs, postwork outs, test boosters and now more recently they are starting to sell food a person can make...(soup)

I know alot of guys work for them and even some of my mates.. but come on all this advertising and promoting what for? I know what its for and its profit!
I feel bad for all those people who have no idea how the body works and what is best for the body and spend all their money on something they really dnt need.

Now more recently im hearing that usn supps arnt what they made to be.(Low grade)

I wonder why people still buy them...

I wouldn't go as far as saying USN is "taking money out of people's pockets"... that what SARS do.

At the end of the day the end user decides where they want to buy their supplements from. I agree that some of the claims supplement companies make are untrue or unrealistic and that is false advertising, but unfortunately they will continue to get away with it.

I prefer not to use USN because i feel that for a SA based company they are screwing the athletes with prices (on par with imported brands). They do however have excellent marketing and they are making allot of money out of the "mis informed"!

As for their claims on their products. Unfortunately nothing new and everybody does this. The term is nutritional "quackery". At the end of the day a brand can only be as successful as the nr of people willing to buy. Hats off to the guy for starting and developing a successful brand but i will not support them out of my principle above

Some of these scam artists do get exposed:

It seems Solal has had a particular bad ride :ohmy:

Saw the funniest poster of USN the other day on a window here at a local pharmacy. It showed a before and after picture of a guy and his transformation in 12 weeks. Apparently he was 15.4% bf before, but he looked more like 25%, then 12 weeks later he was shredded at 5%. WTF EVER! No diet or juice or supplement will get you from 20%+ bf to 5% in 12 weeks, or at least not in a healthy way!

Best of it all - people see it, believe it, walk in and buy the shit

dude, you will be very very suprised what a properly constructed diet, the informed use of aas (emphasis on informed), and a proper training regime can do to your body in 12 weeks. Perhaps not a 20% to 5% drop, but you could get damn well close to that.

I have even seen some of these transformations using the same dude, but with different products he used. A year back the guy only used whey, cla and fat burners, now he apparently used test boosters, pre and intra workout stuff, etc. wtf?
