Athletes Rep - How it works

[The Master]

Even if there's no real justification for that claim?

When was the last time a meathead declined to buy snake oil?

I think so.  Think about it, we are talking about people who are afraid to eat 5 calories to much.  People that OBSESS about their body and what they put in it.  Spend thousands on drugs to win a tiny plastic trophy.  Paying a few extra bucks for "the stuff the pro's use" is nothing to them.  Now people like you, Debussy and I?  Not so much.

Yep, but why do you guys exclude yourself from this market?


This is a bodybuilding forum I bet you lot are meatheads too.

Another thing is that there = no critical voices out there that tells people that supplements = expensive and often useless. All you find in the magazines are commercials and articles praising snake oil, and almost nobody telling you that it's all crap.

Of course, this benefits the entire industry as its built around selling snake oil.

Not all supplements are snake oil... like an MRP can be beneficial for quick calories for example.

Although I understand that there is snake oil out there. Some of the muscletech products are questionable...

Protein can be convenient and creatine works. (there are a few others out there as well). The real benefits of using these products continously for 5 years compared to training and dieting like a scientist without much supplements can be discussed though.

But! Most supplements are either snake oil, or the supplement companies sell stuff like protein and creatine way overprized without any real extra benefits. (Like paying twice the prize for glorified egg whites). Grossly overpaying after reading about a 100000% better effect (which = none at all) = snake oilish.

And if you look at what the industry tries to sell you compared with what you actually need, then you start to see that this industry = snake oilish.

The entire industry is selling Snake Oil^TM now?   Wow, that Milos is an industrious guy!

one pint, $1.98.  (8 pints in a gallon, therefore $15.84/gal.  $0 shipping, since you get it at the store).

The Egg Whites International is a lot more portable to take with you than cartons of egg whites and more convenient.  When I'm traveling, I'll put one in my cooler  and when I get to the hotel I can stick the container in the mini frig.  You can't do that with cartons as they will bust and spill over.

Now for people like me that stay in nice hotels on vacation, breakfast is usually around 30 bucks a day and is full of fat and grease.  I can simply cook up a nice omelet along with a cup of coffee and save some money and let the kitchen keep the fat and grizzle for themselves.


At home, I use store bought egg whites but travel wise, the Egg Whites International are the best

Where would a poor negro travel to? Anyway, it's not like you're a real bodybuilder, why pretend eating like one?

I swear Vince G CSN MFT PHD is sucking up to Bob C! What gives, Melvin? Are you staying in good with the pro athletes rep in case you turn pro?

No, I simply don't agree with either you or Milos.  That's called having the intelligence not to listen to a crackpot like you. 

[Vince B]

Who's the crackpot? Weren't you the dude flogging the Magic Stick and Bee Polen to hapless muscleheads not so long ago?

How is your metaphysics going? You should have completed your second PhD by now!

Don't change the subject you old salt.  The fact is that you're complaining about a job that you are not even qualified nor even affects or has anything to do with you.

You're not an IFBB pro, Basile.  You're just a washed up has been that's trying to make a name for yourself in your final years. 

I'm sorry but you had your chance when you were competing but you didn't train or diet hard enough to be the best.  Live with it.

I'm not an IFBB pro, Basile. I'm just a fat homosexual hillbilly washed up never been that's trying to make a name for myself on the internet

I'm sorry but I had my chance when I was competing but I didn't train or diet at all to be the best. Now I cannot live with it.

fixed, Cumdrum you are a pathetic negro

I would never pay what Bob is asking for his egg whites.  However, I think he is doing a great job at pricing his product for his target demo.  Goat didn't just buy the product, he actually read the label first.  He's not worried about taking in an egg white that is not designed for bodybuilders.  A true "meathead" would never do that.  They want "the best"!

Btw, I am a big advocate of supplements that work.  It's not all snake oil,....about 60% is.

Which means: You = not dedicated at all.

You repeatedly show up in pudgy shape to shows. This would not happen with true dedication. You fail to follow a simple system.

Yes! He might be a funny character and all, but he = not dedicated to save his life when it comes to BB.
