BSN is a good product, there are better ones are there but there are definitly worse ones. I used to use NO-Explode but then tried VPX NO shotgun. WOW. It tasted like shit but it was a boost for my workouts. Until they can figure out how to put nitrix in small easy to swallow pills then taking 16 horse pills a day, I'll pass on that. Don't get suckered into the flashy ads, MT does the same.
