Hey guys and gals, havnt been around these parts posting in a while....got a good buddy of mine, gym nuts he is lol. One of these guys whos naturally pretty athletic but wont listen to advice from myself who has more lifting experience....Anyway, hes gonna get himself some 'Animal' products, and asks me what he should get....which animal stack he should use, well i dont know much about them, so i thought this was the best place to pik the brains of peeps who know alot about nutrition, far byond my knowledge?!

None of them. Waste of money.
The only ANIMAL products that were worth anything were the ORIGINAL Animal CUTS and Animal TEST from 5 years ago.
Now it's all nonsense. If he has a disposable income then tell him to go for it otherwise tell him to just train and eat.

I had good results with the M stak.I was at a stand still on my bench..decided to try it and in three weeks bench went up from 325lbs to 350lbs.

The old STAK2 was my favourite
-
Iv heard mixed reviews, people saying the animal pak tablets were rediculous to try swallow....but that the new stack was ok?!
Hes on loadsa food, whey, and gonna throw some creapure creatine in aswell. But wanted something else, was tryingto decide between test tablets (like ZMA) or an animal stack product, somethinga bit diff, buit worth it.
Thanks for advice so far, il pass it on.

sounds to me like he wants to take something to make his training progress faster than it would if he did it naturally.
why doesnt he just use some testosterone, or some other aas?
i dont understand guys who are like.... "nah i dont wanna take roids, but im gonna load up on every over priced supplement out there in hopes that i can get roid like gains for 100x times the cost" ??? ::)
either you want to do it naturally, or you dont. if you wanna be natural = food and weights.

I’m sorry. Wasn’t this post credit to you a couple of months ago?

"Honestly, I've been using Animal Pak for a while probably because the high nutrition value. I can't see how regular multi-vitamins could pack in so much as they in an inch tablet... Animal Pak is totally geared for hard lifters, unlike a Weider pack or something. Know what I mean? I like your products because it seems like you cater to the hardcore, true bodybuilders who are pretty much competition-minded or bodybuilders committed to the whole bodybuilding lifestyle. You don't put bullshit, insulting ads with before/after shots and false promises and use sex/getting girls/building chest, arms for the beach like MuscleTech does. You show the true, gritty, hardcore, no-nonsense meatheads! I co-own, in my opinion, the most gritty, hardcore gym on the southside of Chicago called 'Pumps Muscle Station.' It's dank, smells like your old high school gymnasium.. there's sweat, spit and chalk all over the floor and the majority of the trainers there actually take leg training seriously. I myself am competition-minded and am going to commit to the 'Midwest Ironman' in November and I'm going to rely on Animal Stak and Cuts to get me there."-

I'll take a guess and say
1) He doesn't like needles
2) Prison stripes clash with his sneakers.

And, therein lies the rub. People have floating definitions of the term, "natural". I'm sure you've heard my story about the freshman football player's criticism of his buddy taking a weight gainer powder.

Duh! 1% of that was true. The gym. The rest of that old deal was they sent me free stuff and they edit what I "say".

Then, exactly what is it that you said?
It looks to me as if you're singing the praises of Animal products one minute and blasting their products the next, unless the mitigating factor as to whether certain supplements suck or work well is PRICE.

Why Is The Pak Special?
RELATED PRODUCT
Universal Animal Pak
For hard-core bodybuilders and strength athletes, nothing beats Animal Pak for maximizing gains in muscle mass, strength and performance. There is no better nutritional weapon available to fuel intense workouts. Spawning many imitators, the original Animal Pak is still loaded with the most advanced, highest quality bodybuilding nutrients.
[ Learn More ]
This nutritional staple comes in many forms. You see them everywhere. But none of them are designed to specifically address the special needs of the intense strength athlete. None, that is, except the Animal Pak.
Animal Pak has it all: vitamins, minerals, aminos (like BCAAs), antioxidants, electrolytes, performance optimizers, digestive enzymes and essential fats (EFAs). Yeah, it's that complete. Think of the Pak as your foundational supplement…quot;the one upon which to build your entire nutritional protocol.
Like we said before, you aren't some lazy son of a b!tch, so why use his multivitamin? You are the elite... The dedicated. You are Animal. The one who pays his dues everyday. Your multivitamin should be formulated accordingly. You deserve that much...
When it comes to growing our muscles in a freakish way, Animal Pak provides the right combination and mega-doses of all the good stuff you need. These powerful pharmacological agents and catalysts can exert significant ergogenic/anabolic benefits and function as the spark plugs for activating all the necessary chemical reactions that make training and building muscle possible.
just look at the reviews
"since I started working I didnt have any energy left when I left the office so I quit the gym for a while, but since Ive been taking animal pak I have the energy to hit the gym everyday, it does wonders, it keeps my focused at work and mekes me lift more at the gym, I highly recomend it"
"I certainly don't consider myself a hardcore fitness freak or weightlifter but I have tried various products from time to time over the years which have all been marketed as revolutionary. None of these products except maybe tribulus have I really noticed anything. A friend of mine gave me a Pak to try the other week before a pool session which he really rated. I went from feeling pretty flat that day to being pumped up and enthusiastic about the session with a great sense of well being. Went and bought my own can of Animal Pak that night. Really enjoying the product and its good to use something with a noticable difference for a change rather than spending a bunch of money and assuming a product is doing 'something'. My piss is really cool also and is almost flourescent green in colour. I normally take a Pak on an empty stomach with a good drink of water. All in all a very good product and I am looking forward to the experiances of my continued use in future."

"For hard-core bodybuilders and strength athletes, nothing beats Animal Pak for maximizing gains in muscle mass, strength and performance."
Animal Pak is a good supplement,one of the few I'd consider worth buying though it's way too expensive, the rest oif the supps being a complete waste of money.
But c'mon, "maximizing gains in muscle mass, strength, etc...."What else? Does your dick grow also?
-
why didn't they use fankhouser in the first photo ???
-
no, i prefer regular multivitamin, anything more than that gets pissed out.

The only thing that is greater / more incredible than the pak is the force that is Brent Harvey Jr 8)

I've tried their Uni-Liver tablets. They're HUGE. But the product is good, nonetheless.
However, I've switched to Vitamin Shoppe's Liver Plus. But, given their recent hike in price, I may just switch back.

i dont endorse animal pak i was just trying to get timeout... but after being there i dont want to go back
-
How did you find it? Any good or helpful?
-
Has anyone ever used their fatburner? How did it work for you? Very powerful? Did you feel ok physically with it?
-
I read guys like rpy callender used to chow down on loads of Dessicated liver tablets....what are the benifits of adding them to ur diet?
Davie

Animal stak does work... im not going to act like it doesnt... its pricey but i do feel better and have better mental focus when im taking it... maybe its a placebo effects..
-
I used it, helped me trim off about 3% bodyfat...but made me hungry as hell, for some reason stimulants do that to me.

Beef liver is one of the most nutrient dense foods there is - iron, folic acid, vit. B-12, and a solid amino acid profile.
Well, liver tablets are just defatted, compressed liver.
I don’t know what Animal’s cost, but there’s a good chance you can get a generic brand for less $$.

Has anyone ever used their fatburner? How did it work for you? Very powerful? Did you feel ok physically with it?

I haven't seen this much flip-flopping since the 2004 presidental election.
