Pre and Post workout supps

Sup guys,

Just wanna get your opinions on what you guys recommend?

I am currently using SPS NO Blast/Rage and Vitargo Aftershock and got pretty decent results.

I probably would prefer the BSN products, but I find it hard to justify the price for a pre/post workout supplement.

I was contemplating the exact same thing for a while now and decided on vpx no shotgun and synthesize.

My reasoning is that together they should be quit nifty. Both contain 20g of hydro isolated whey and the synthesize has ingredients that gives a insulin spike without the carbs. For me this is great. You will get the kick; pump and it doubles up as a post workout shake as well. Nifty!

When this is done i'll give the superpump 250/size on from gaspari a try. The size on pre contest if working out in afternoon and the size on max performence if working out in morning before breakfast. Here off course you should use a nice whey isolate after workout

All this said. In the pre workout category jack3d kicks ass! I just like to use brand combos

VPX looks like quite a nice combo. I checked it out now. I have the same feeling when it comes to pre/post workout supps, should definately be the same brand rather than mixing them. I believe they have a better synergy. Although I have nothing to prove that.

I have done the Gaspari combo, I feel that BSN worked better for me. As well as the SuperPump gives you some serious bowel movement.

As for Jack3d, I have not tried it and I see on supplementworld it has got good reviews, not that I trust all of them. I am trying to figure out the best value for money. Now if Jack3d gives 45 servings, then it is a lot more than many of the other brands. The problem I usually find is that 1 serving is not good enough. For example with BSN NO Xplode, you end up taking 2 - 3 servings and then all of a sudden you only get like 20 or less servings.

How long did your jack3d last ABC01 ?

I normaly dont use but i am in the process of getting some muscle marinade. There are some decent reviews out.

Jack, I have also read some good reviews on the Purus labs range. I have ordered Muscle Marinade and Recycle from Springbok Pharmacy and should get it today. Will start taking it as soon as it's delivered. :weights

That stuff looks good. I like this part

"Consider Muscle Marinade the anomaly. It was systematically forged from science and research by real scientists and athletes, boasting an ensemble of performance enhancing and recovery stimulating ingredients supported by peer reviewed and published human scientific data. Taking it a step further, Muscle Marinade includes the clinically supported effective dosage of each ingredient in every one scoop serving. NO OTHER COMPANY'S PRODUCT can match these claims."

Any of you guys can link to reviews on it?

there's these on supplementworld...

Got a couple of samples of jack3d. Serving size is 5.55g. That is not enough! I find 10g to be sufficient so that would then give you 25 servings

Cant find Muscle marinade in CT. E-mailed the guy who brings it in. He did not even bother to get back to me so would not use it out of principle

I started using Muscle Marinade this morning at 05h00 pre and intra training. There is definitely an increase in strength and energy and also a good pump, but the drugged feeling while training and a few hours afterwards is "weird".

so Muscle Marinade = very good ?

Can I get it ant any Dischem ? or where can I get some here in Centurion ?

Not available in shops in Pta. I ordered mine online from Springbok Pharmacy. They deliver for free to Pta on Mondays. I'm not sure I would recommend it. :hmm

i love thats stuff...u can use it on a keto diet,it gives u so some serious energy....

north_boy how are u doing after your pct? did u drop much weight when u came off cycle??did i get your diet waxed for your cycle where u put on lean mass?

Hey DJ, I went up 10kg with cycle and kept 5kg after PCT. I'm not satisfied at all, but it has nothing to do with your diet, cycle or pct. The calf tear in middle of cycle and the illness in the last 4 weeks of cycle didn't help much. This time I had no acne on cycle, in pct or after cycle. The only thing that worries me is downstairs everything is not kosher. I started with Purus Labs Recycle on Monday for a bit of a Test boost.

well the no acne on cycle is not a problem,u where growing weekly dude and that was from diet and aas,all i can say is when i take muti and keep my diet super super clean then i dont get acne,also i found even with 1.2g of test a week on a keto diet i got no acne either,switched to carb cycling and acne came up..thats just me though... also to keep 5kgs is good but if u cant train 100% of injury u will find that u will have kept more if u had no injury... the pct should've been fine,if u arent 100% happy u can extend your pct now and take some kessar just to help u get going again...

Supplement world is where i got mine...
R489 if i remember correct with free courier

If you want the stuff get it from supplement world. I used them the other. Very impressed!! Free postage and they dispatched it the next day. They have a points system with wich you could get discount down the line. They are also cheaper on most sups than dischem. Check them out!

Okay so north_boy did you go blind or something? Because I heard it does that. lol? :blink:

I have had some people tell me Muscle Marinade is bad for you.
I look at the ingredient profile and I dont see anything wrong. Or am I missing something?

Oh yeah forgot to mention, where can I get samples? SupplementWorld cant send and the guy who apparently is the rep doesnt respond to mail. Does dischem have?

bro i use muscle marinade,that stuff is top shelf... have u emailed francios about samples?

check out the reviews on the muscle evolution forum under supplements !!!!

Hi F,
The Muscle Marinade has a terrible smell and taste, but other than that it is an awesome product. The energy and strength while using it can be compared to when on cycle.

hi i am the owner of bct nutrition we do muscle marinade, please inform me who you emailed for samples if it has been myself i apologise for not returning you r mails as i have been extremely busy with the silverstar classic, i would be more than happy to send you samples but please bear in mind we cannot send each and every person a sample that requests one it becomes to costly !! regards francois

hi north boy, we working on disguising the smell what you are smelling is the amino's in the product, its hard to mask amino's and we working on a third flavour !! in the end its the results that count however many people enjoy the purus punch flavour as well as grape, each to their own

I must get hold of some Muscle Marinade.
Tried SSN Creapump - what a load of crap!

jack email me i will send u Bct nutrition's mail address and i am sure he will sort u out with a sample
