I’m a Level 4… but you guys are ridiculous.

I only use consistantly:

Creatine
BCAA
Surge
ZMA

I have bought:

Grow! Whey
HOT-RX (Dieting only, duh.)
Alpha Male (Bulking only, duh.)
Carbolin 19

hmmm, let’s see… I have 12kg’s of protein powder and some creatine that I always forget to use.

+1. I used to buy every fucking thing after the sun. I still have a load of boxes I never even opened that I’m getting to on a 1 by 1 basis… e.g. bacopa monnieri right now… but I’m really taking my supp intake down a notch. Kinda just got tired of it, lol. I can’t be assed to manage 20 types of pills. Eating more/healthier is easier.

You have been a member since 2005.
Check his join date - he may still be 11 months!!!

I say going from level 0 to level 4 in 11 months takes skill.

This guy is a pro.

I once bought a case of Spike Shooter into the UK and paid $100 for shipping and $50 duty tax for FedEx to clear quickly and pay the Queen.

Redgladiator, it may be cheaper to import a wife from Asia.

Think about it.

lol!

Seriously though, you do need a support group.
Did you know in the picture you provided there are two Power Drive you didn’t claim on your list?
What else are you failing to expose?
Where is the Carbolin 19 and how many bottles?

I can’t get over how many tubs of Surge you have.

I’m not an addict…addicts go to meetings.

Import wife from Asia…interesting :<)

Not sure what happened to my post but here it is again: Costs are estimates

Just to clear things up here’s what I take regularly: (of this list only the bottom four are actually Biotest, the others are mostly from MP, Superfood I alternate Biotest with MP brand)

milk protein concentrate (1 scoop per day at night) 20-30p/scoop
whey concentrate (1 scoop moring and 2 PWO) 20-30p/scoop
maltodextrin (2 scoops PWO) 15p/scoop???(not sure)
L-Leucine (5-15g perday) �£50 /year
creatine (5-10g perday) �£50 /year
ZMA (3caps/day) �£30/year
vit d3 (4000/6000IU in winter/day) �£20/year
fish oil (0-5 /day) 30p/day
Flameout (3-5/day) �£1/day
Superfood (4-5g perday) 50p/day
Surge Workout Fuel (2 scoops once or twice a week) �£1.50/scoop
Spike pills (1 cap once or twice a week) 50p/pill

What I don’t take regularly: (maybe one bottle a year or less)
dextrose (don’t really take, full box unopened)
protein bars (I bought 12 a year ago got 6 left)
Receptormax (Unopened)
HOT-ROX (Just opened 2 weeks ago 1 cap/day)
Z-12 (once a week or 2)
11-T (used half a bottle)
Rez-V (3 caps once a week)
Surge Recovery (I use as a treat once every couple of weeks)
Curcumin (just bought, it’s actually tumeric capped)
Power Drive (Got for free a couple of months ago, Used it maybe 5 times)
Carbolin 19 (Used in off days with Alpha Male)
Alpha Male (Used maybe 3-4 bottles over 2 years)

I am not taking ALL THESE at the same time, I buy in bulk to cut back on shipping and I buy for 1-2 years supply. I cycle L-Leucine,creatine, Surge Workout Fuel and Spike.

I do like to help our queen, recession her her pretty hard.

Any questions??? Ask away.

And at least I am admitting my problems, I think the support group is a fantastic idea.

I do only have 1 bottle of Power Drive, it was a freebie, I rearranged the supplements thats why maybe they are in 2 shots. (the pics were done in a rush) Carbolin 19 I only have 1 bottle.
The Surge is all Surge Workout Fuel and one Surge Recovery. Surge Recovery cost too much to ship.

I haven’t included coconut oil, ground flaxseed or green tea as I consider them food.
(I also consider protein powder food but many people don’t)

I use:
Eas Whey
German Creatine
MultiVitamin
and ZMA.

Not bad, or expensive.

Nah, I barely buy them. Although when I do I tend to spend more than I anticipated spending. They are just so shiny and attractive.

Creatine
Flameout
Superfood
Grow! Whey [well, what I’ve got left . . .]
Metabolic Drive vanilla
Curcumin 500 . . . the new shit
ZMA
Surge!!!
L-Leucine [love this stuff!]

non-Biotest
ON Natural Whey
Carlson’s fish oil
Glucosamine/Chondroiton/MSM blend

Only recently, since my disposable income level has taken a hit, have I stopped using “non-essential” items, such as Beta-7. Will be picking up almost the entire Biotest lineup monthly once I get my business completely in gear.

And support groups are for pussies and quitters.

And that’s just his Biotest stuff.
…You do know other companies exist though?

yeah Mac I’m about 26.

I don’t have “a lot of extra income” but I do allot a good amount for my food/supplements. (mainly food; don’t worry…my diet is 100% dialed in).

redgladiator, thanks I feel better.

Glad I could help :slight_smile:
My diet is pretty shit but I feel I make up for it with lots of fucking supplements, food is overrated anyway :p[/quote]

funny joke
