Is everyone over at bodybuilding.com out of their fucking minds. They give BSN a blowjob like its their job. They say no-xplode is like the best ever. I foolishly bought some and its sucks. the texture reminds me of the old cell-tech (gritty sand) the taste is horrible and the pumps are nonexistent. I looked on the ingredients and those idiots put caffeine in it which as we all know is a vaso constrictor thus negating any vaso dilating effect arginine has. I'm the biggest dummy here for not researching it more.
The best creatine/no supp i've ever taken is expand by dymatize. Taking that stuff is like blowing air into your muscles - crazy ass pumps!
What do you guys think?

I agree with you 100%.
Too late now...they got your money.
-
actually, caffeine has the ability to stop phosphodiesterase from killing your pump.
-
bro i dont care if caffeine denatures whatever enzyme you mentioned. i have never gotten a decent pump in a workout when ive taken caffeine prior.

No - Xplod worked well for me at first, but then after a couple of month I think my body got used to it.
as for the gritty-ness if you shake it in a shaker it mixes well. Just watch it cause it can blow the top right off of it.

I agree, it sucks. Plus the dosages of the active ingredients are low per serving. It gives me headaches.

You are not alone based on my own experience as well as many other posters (this same topic re-emerges from time to time).

NO-Xplode is great the first few times you take it, then you realize that its just a heavy caffeine rush, and the pump wears off almost immediately. Two others that I have tried are Super-Pump250 which gives pretty good pumps but again they go away fast and the stuff tastes like homogenized ass. Trac-Extreme definitely takes the cake though, good energy but not to the point where your bouncing off the walls. But the pump you get from it is incredible, just awesome swelling of the muscles and it lasts well after your workout, which IMO is probably the most important time to have more blood pumping mass amounts of nutrients to your muscles.

BSN SUCKS PERIOD. NO-Xplode just gives me diarrhea and makes me nauseous.

I agree some give u headache stomach problem's,nothing that i couldn't handle though.to me the pills gave me the most obvious tell tale physical signs like good vascularity after taking then eating carb's after about 1/2 hour,the drink's taking prior to training after hitting few sets some really good pumps,i really liked super charged by labrada was the best tasting too,no explode tasted and mixed horribly,i tried a company formula was called preshock it was disgusting ,i'll try mhp's it was recommended on this post.

Seriously why do you guys need that shit ::)

Shock Therapy is my favorite NO supplement; more servings for less money.
-
Bodybuilding.com pushes it because they make a killing off of it and get bonuses for the more they ship. Sorry for all of you people that don't know how most of this industry works but most guys who own these companies don't really care if they can get you to buy it. I will say that Now Arginine is cheap and good but tastes like death. You have to realize that there is no majic bullet. I give shock therapy and Storm lots of love too, Good stuff and I toss 5 g arginine in the shock thereapy and i works out pretty good. You have to be doing "pump type training though"... my

I've gotten better pumps from sodium loading than using any arginine product. I do like superpump250 but its not something I plan on using on a regular basis
