Thanks guys - keep em coming. Any companies out there you wish you saw more of? How about companies that you think advertise in a bad way, or sell crappy products. Do we have any athletes here? If so, what companys do you feel has the best products?

What about younger lifters? How do you feel, and what products do you like the best.

Obviously Muscle Tech advertises in a "bad" way.  Then again if they get the delusional 17 year olds to think that a serving of Cell Tech will make them look like Jay, more power to them.

Depends on the product.
For basic vitamins and minerals, NOW is good and very economical or anything with the GMP stamp. Enzymatic Therapy, Source Naturals, Nature Made...

Universal makes good products.  Not the cheapest in the world, but very high in quality!

Value as it may be, fine. But is the quality worth the money spent either way? I'd rather spend an extra 20 bucks on a supplement where I know it's working rather than get a good value on something that doesn't. I just wanna know, how do you feel these "body fortress" supps work compared to more popular supp companies?

  I did a thread about my Gaspari test.  Stacked Size on and Halodrol gels together for 1 month.  I had high hopes.  It was a waste.

the only two that work, creatine and BCAA's, all the rest are shit, i consider whey protein a food not a supplement.

1) Proteinfactory - Their Victoria milk protein isolate is nice.
2) Super Spectrim - They sell a time-released vitamin c and multi which has made a difference in my daily energy levels.
3) Now Foods - CarboGain powder is cheap and effective for post-workout feeding.  The glucosamine HCl is also very good quality.
4) Udo's Choice - I realise that nasty fish oil is all the rage, but I much prefer Udo's.  It tastes fine with just about anything.

NITREAN and MAXIMUS for protien and cals

ETS for keeping the muscle soreness (DOMS) away and to aid in recovery

and RESULTS...just because it's exactly what it produces since the day I've been taking it!


There's more you could always take but this little mix isn't costing a fortune and still getting the gains and the recovery I'm looking for and then some!
