best supplement

following up on ken p.'s question, what was the best supplement anyone ever tried? (other than androsol, tribex, biotest, etc?)

when i first started working out, i gained 28 lbs in 3 months taking only creatine and protein. don’t ask how, it just happened. also, dymabol 300 worked for me ok as far as stength increases go.

The original Met-Rx (the one that came in two seperate containers). I can’t say it was the best ever, but I remember being really impressed at the time. Back then, most supplements were so crappy. That was one of the first quality products. It kind of started a renaissance in the supplement industry.

Glutacene. Its a glutamine/BCAA product taken during workouts. Speeds recovery time. its awesome. Strength is way up.

jon, i agree to a point on glutacene but they went out of business. it tastes like crap though. how did you use it> i’m pre-contest right now and would love some strength increase to keep me up mentally.

I remember being so skeptical about creatine when it first came out. 9 pounds in 3 days, yeah right. FOUR days later, nine pounds (visible) no fat gain. Hey, know it was water but it put on bodyweight, did not blur my definition, and I really could see the difference. I noticed the strength benefit later.

Paul, advanced genetics went out of business? I just ordered from them like 2 weeks ago. Wow, i didnt know that. When did this happen? It may be good for pre-contest because it def. spares muscle and helps recovery. Both Charles Staley and poliquin have recommended Glutacene to me and I trulybelive it works. Multiply your Lean body Mass, obvioulsy subtract fat from overall weight, by .20. That is how many grams of glutacene you will take during your workout. Only take it during the workout and just sip throughout. I have about 180-and 185 lbs of LBM so I take 4 rounded tsp. each workout. Its worth a shot but buy one of the larger containers–1000 grams. its kinda expensive but lasts a while and i believe it is worth it.

Do any of the older guys remember the original Cyclofenil that was sold out of Powerlifting USA back in the mid to late 80’s? It came in a small white bottle, with a rather generic looking label. My training partner got me some of that stuff when we first started lifting together. It was amazing! My strength went through the roof. The only drawback was opening the bottle, it smelled horrible. Whatever it was, it must have been too good, as it was yanked from the back of the magazine. The crap that GNC started selling a couple years later did absolutely nothing. I think the imposter product was sold by Strength Systems.

60 grams of CREATINE with 150 mg of VANADYL SULFATE --I get pumps like when I’m on -

By far MD6.

There have only been two supplements that I noticed immediate and unquestionable gains with. Creatine and ephedrine. I’m sure many of the mrps and protein powders I used were working, but they were subtle in their effect. With creatine and ephedrine I could see the effect almost instantly.

HMB I feel like I’m on deca

HMB???

MD6 for fat loss is impressive. But if I had only one supplement to take, it would be Androsol. No other supplement produced a weight gain and muscle hardness like that. For the MRP, I’m hooked on Met-Rx!
