I am not surprised, their shit is over priced... it is simple economics there is better stuff out there at lower prices.....

muscle tech figured they could advertise their way to success rather than make great products at reasonable prices that sell by word of mouth...

dumbasses

I don't know how much they paid for their Olympia ad in Times Square, but I'm willing to bet it was a huge waste of cash.

I don't think it has anything to do with their sales. Too many lawsuits from selling ephedra. And other lawsuits I'm sure.

I sure hope they still pay the winner of the 2006 Colorado Pro, brought to you by the fine people at MuscleTech.

I wonder if Darrem got paid in full for the show he won 2-3 years ago?

I don't think Atwood ever did for winning Toronto Pro

Muscletech? Are you even aware that Muscletech is not a company, that it is owned by Iovate. How about checking that out before you say that Muscletech filed for bankruptcy.

Was Toronto Pro sponsored by Muscletech as well?

it might not be a publicly traded company, but it's most certainly incorporated. Corporations are to protect individuals from liability. If I was incorporated, you could sue the corporation for all of its assets, but not for my personal assets, such as my house.

also, both individuals and companies can file for bankruptcy protection. doing so prevents creditors from taking your assets before you can reorganize. It also allows you to get out of contracts.

They are absolutely a company even if they have only one shareholder...

For his Orlando Pro win? Hell, I doubt it.

Guess they aint getting an immediate 10.5% gain in sales from their new products.

Bluto · « **Reply #49 on:** January 20, 2006, 04:08:13 AM »

is there any truth to this at all? or is this 3 pages of speculating? maybe you should wait until someone can confirm otherwise it's pretty pointless
