I was wondering if anyone has tried the new line of supplements that are supposed to increase vascularity (blood between muscle cells.) Examples are NO2, Nitrix, NO3, the claims are extravigant as usually but i was wondering if anyone had tried them and what there results where, if any.
This has been asked and answered a dozen times, both here at the forum at the T-mag article section. The answer is these things suck. A search will tell you why and give the details.
short answer: they suck and make you poor
Arginine AKG is the main ingredient
in hemodialators. And they dont’t do anything for performance. And there are side effects, for example alot of people get severe outbreaks with them (herpes outbreaks as well) so to combat this you have to take a heavy dosage of Lysine. And release alot of NO in your body at once (which hemo’s do to get that “pump” )
isn’t healthy becasue once NO levels are raised at such a drastic level other chemicals such as ammonia are released faster into the body and remain there. Bottom line don’t mess this gimmick product.
On the other hand I have been using creatine (5-10 grams a day) combined with citrulline-malate which has the same purpose in mind that hemo’s have execpt no NO is getting dump into your body.
the no2 products have different outcomes for different people. i work in a gym and have seen and heard of people getting good results with the product. like anything else it does not take the place of hard training. several people stacked the no2 products with 1-test and got great results. would this product intrest people on an anabolic cycle? probably not although i have heard several people going on cycles who where intested in trying it in combonation. probably couldn’t afford it though. like most supps you need to see what works for you and what does not. if you are on a tight budget i agree there are other supps to consider which may give you more bang for the buck. just my opinion.
I’ve heard a couple of people say they have great results using these products. I have heard of great results from SWOLE, and smilax, and ginseng, and bee pollen, and royal jelley, and oxywater blah blah blah
The power of the mind never ceases to amaze me.
I have heard mixed results, and I agree w/ the placebo effect. Most people I have talked to have said they got good results, while most people on this forum disagree. Who freakin knows!
