Its not Muscletech in disguise. ITS MUSCLETECH. There is no secret about it.

Actually guys, I have heard rumors that Muscle Asylum is actually MuscleTech in disguise...they are just advertising this new brand under another name in order to fool customers into believing they are an alternative to MuscleTech...MuscleTech knows that everyone is now on to their over-hyped advertising and over-hyped muscle gain claims... so they figure they can just start up this new company and try to get those people who are fed up with MuscleTech and would never again buy their products, to try something new that they in fact own...this way they still are able to get the average gym shmoe to throw away dollars on their expensive over-hyped products... I looked at the containers in the store (GNC) and the Muscle Asylum containers are the same as the MuscleTech containers....
dude it took you this long to figure this out?...you at least could have read the beginning of this thread where that was already revealed as if people didnt already know....

Like crap. Just like the Muscletech line. If you want taste go BSN, If you want value and effectiveness go with Optimum Nutrition or Designer. Forget the "big" names. Get yourself a big box of chicken, rice, oatmeal, steak, eggs and vegetables. Best "supplements" you can buy!

Perhaps, that's because MuscleTech, Six Star, and Muscle Asylum are all under the same parent company: Iovate Health Sciences.

Optimum, BSN, and Designer aren't exactly small potatoes. Using their products wouldn't exactly be forgetting the big names. Taste-wise, I'd go with Optimum too, especally their strawberry version of 100% Whey Gold Standard. Another great-tasting whey protein would be GNC 100% Whey Protein (particularly the Banana flavor and the Chocolate Caramel).

I agree! The Banana is chronic! As much as people love to rag on GNC for being overpriced, they got a fat deal on Whey Isolate 28, it's 25 bucks then 20% off w/ a card right now. I swooped up on 4 of them, that's 8 lbs of whey isolate for 80 bucks, can't really beat that price!

I wouldn't worry about the "overpriced" thing. All you have to do is wait until they start marking down their products AND then use the Gold Card.  ;D

Im living in Ireland the price difference between 2lbs and 5 lbs of Muscletech Nitro Tech and ON 100% Gold Whey, Syntha-6 and Designer whey is crazy.

2 lbs of Nitrotech is around the 50euro mark
2lbs of ON 100whey is around the 28euro mark
3lbs of Syntha-6 is 28 euro and 2lbs of Designer whey is 25 euro.

We don't have GNC stores or anything like that. Small supplement shops. Everything is illegal over here e.g. anything over the 100% RDA of Vitamin B12 is illegal - NoXplode etc
Yohimbine is illegal! Anything testosterone boosting is illegal too!

OUCH!!!!

I haven’t been to Europe in a while, but if the exchange rate is around what it was then, that NITRO-TECH is (in US dollars) about $67; the ON Whey and Syntha-6 are $38; and Designer Whey is around $34.

Is there anyway you can order your items from a U.S.-based online supplement store (i.e. Bodybuilding.com or VitaminShoppe.com), or would the shipping prices negate any savings offered by those sites?

If I order the stuff from the U.S. I get caught with Shipping costs...almost 150 bucks for a decent order. Then customs duty which is another 21% of the price..Then If I happen to buy anything illegal I could go to court..Its a load of horseshit. Hence, I just eat the fuck out of everything and take as little supplements as possible!

You wouldn't happen to have any friends in the U.S. military, would you? Vitamin Shoppe only charges $3 for their "Super Saver Shipping" to FPO/APO military addresses (shipping's free, if the order is at least $99).

Unfortunately not >:(

I earn enough money to justify paying for my food but I would still recommend anyone considering the "Muscletech" or "MAP" hype to go and buy good food and the basics like whey protein, multi vitamin and aminos. You will never get as much growth for such little money!
