You’re spot on with that idea! We need to examine the ‘PLACEBO’ effect…a very necessary tool in clinical studies.
Paul, here’s a thought. The original thread about this said that there would be a dedicated thread and page when the time was ready. Some of us actually listen to directions and waited to post at the appropriate time. Secondly, Biotest wants people who are experienced and have some sense of what they’re doing so as to not waste free product on some slug. For them to know this about somebody, they have to present that info in the forum. It’s simply not a random drawing of names. If you consider giving yourself the best competitive edge “ass kissing,” that’s your problem. Take your whining elsewhere.
I have to agree with paul on this one. I read the forum at least 3 times a day and a good amount of the names i see in this thread are new to me. I understand that Biotest/T-mag wants guys with experience. But some of these posts are “ass kissing” and begging. “I’ve been a reader since the 1st issue.” Who cares? That doesn’t mean that person is experienced, neither does posting meaningless statements in this thread. I could post some made up bullshit that I’ve been training since 13 and my training and diet are perfect and you think that that should give me a “competitive edge” because I can lie?
Also, there was a section in the Methoxy Challenge page about how long you’ve been training and what kind of results you’ve had. So there was really no need for your “self promotion.”
i’ve just signed up for this too. i wish there was a section on why i think i would be a good canidate for the methoxy-7 test. Being that I have been a regular contributor to this forum, and also showing my results with other Biotest products over the past several months, should give Biotest enough confidence in me to share my results with the methoxy-7 test.
i did consume 6 bottle of methoxy-7 during my cutting cycle earlier this spring, and felt that i didn’t loose any muscle. Perhaps, one day, Biotest would do a test on Myostat in the same fashion as Mag-10 and Methoxy-7. I would love to get in on that too.
D Rock, why are you and others complaining? The section on the dedicated page had a few lines about how much muscle you’ve gained over several given time periods. It did not give you a chance to explain your current situation, but this forum does. As stated previously, this project is for a specific type of trainee. How the hell else are they supposed to determine who that person is without more info?
You know, it’s funny sometimes what you see around here. Some people post about the topic at hand, and some just complain about others. I’d hope you’d have enough self-awareness to realize what group you’re putting yourself in.
It might have been a good idea to have a section to write in extra things. But there
will be e-mail correspondence with those initially selected from the information on the form.
Oh, and as to the part about "And as with the MAG-10 Challenge, well-qualified Forum participants who expressed interest beforehand will be given a little extra consideration towards “getting in,” there
is a word in there that might be missed: namely, “beforehand”! ![]()
Being a Canadian I feel left out, but I think John Roman has a great idea about a great discount on a six pack, but I have a better idea for those north of the border, How about selling the product at par??, since your dollar kicks our ass so bad !!!
Bill, I am extremely desperate to be in this test run. I have been training for close to 15 years. Since signing on board with t-mag, I have followed closely what has been said on the forum. Although I wasn’t actively involved with the forum, I still read through it. I have used methoxy in the past at the lable recommendations, but would otherwise be unable to afford such an undertaking without your help. PLEASE INCLUDE ME!!! I am a great candidate for this. Little gains in the past four to five years.
For the ass-kissing cops out there, I have posted before, both here and on off-topic (under this handle and my old one, 3-L T-Man), but it’s less frequent now that I’m gainfully employed (this being an example of a little Friday-afternoon internet hooky…). I just wanted to add some info on myself, to either help weed me out or get me selected, depending on the criteria Bill chooses.
I’m 28, and I’ve been training since I was 14, but I didn’t really know what I was doing until a friend turned me on to T-Mag about a year and a half ago. I’ve had some good gains with MAG-10 when I tried it, but I was disappointed with the results I attained with both the old and new formulas of Methoxy-7. My baseline sups are low-Carb Grow, Grow Bars, Surge, vitamins and fish oil. Overall my progress has been ok over the past year, but not as good as I had hoped – I’ve plateaued in terms of strength and gains, especially over the last few months (which, coincidentally, tracks the start of my full-time employment).
Anyway, that’s it – thanks for the opportunity.
Psycho, that is an amazing idea. I just purchased 5 bottles of methoxy and 2 bottles of T2 Pro for 190.11 us and it ended up costing me over three hundred canadian with taxes and customs fees. On a side note I am extremely happy that it came today and I am now ready to start a strength program on monday after a half week of rest.

I’m gonna enter… and hopefully win. I’ve been thinking about trying the cheaters diet with Renegade Training. I’m 6’1 240lbs, about 14% bf. Was hoping to drop a lil to see my six pack. However with a new son, getting methoxy or something else for three weeks is very expensive. So far I’ve tried methoxy once, didn’t notice any extreme results but it helped me hold onto muscle.
Oh c’mon guys as a dedicated biotest consumer, surely you can send a few bottles over to the UK so some of us brits can get a piece of the action. Or give the boys at performance foods the orders to do so.
You know how mad we are for biotest in the UK.

This is a sweet contest, and my submission is in. The methoxy thread from the last week or two has been really good, and I would love to give it a shot. Gains have been slow recently, and trying something like Methoxy-7 at the new dosage could definitely give them a kick in the ass. Just the thought of all that free methoxy has made me downright giddy!
I agree, this is the reply I got to overseas question.
Hyphnz,
We typically don’t include people outside the United States in product trials due to the likelihood that shipments will be seized and destroyed.
It just kills us to see our products destroyed!
Were this not an issue, we’d not impose geographic restrictions in our selection process.
Thanks for your support!
We are not complaining. Just finding it funny to see all the fruitless ass kissing. Read Bill’s post. Kissing ass after the fact won’t do you anyone any good.
Or, there could be another way around it. If I have an address in the US, can I then apply to bein the trial? I’ll be going back for Christmas to visit my family in Arizona, so I could pick the Methoxy up then and carry it back to Japan in my luggage. No one’s going to seize and/or destroy Methoxy that I bring in with me for my personal use.
(Hyphnz, thanks for the tip!)
Paul, you didn’t say anything wrong in your original post. I was in a bad mood earlier and probably should have refrained from posting anything at that time. I apologize if anything I said offended you or D Rock shorty thereafter. My shitty mood should have been kept to myself.
Hey Bill, any chance of an eighteen-year-old getting in on the action. I am definitely a top candidate. I lift six days a week, run about 2.5-3 miles a day, and eat almost perfectly. When I was a freshman in high school, I was 5’0 and 225 pounds, almost 50% BF. I’m currently 5’11, 178 pounds, and holding steady at 13% BF. Would definintely love to be a guinea pig for the Methoxy-7 test if at all possible. Thanks…
Im in, I’m a full-time student who really spends too much time reading articles and forum posts on t-mag. I’d like to be in this experiment, i think id make a great guinea pig!
