funny shit N.O. xplode side effects funny!!! - YouTube [/quote]
I’m buying me some fucking NO-Xplode!
The most ridicoulous marketing of all time has got to be just recently reported as of last week. Now Big Pharma is actively pushing for kids to be treated with statin drugs (supposed miracle pill).
Anyone in the know knows that this is a sure-fire recipe for disaster. Big Pharma clearly has no shame and only concern for its ever growing bottom line.

Hellz yeah!
I was in a Vitamin World the other day, and I don’t remember what company it was, but every one of their products, wether it was creatine or glutamine or whatever, said on the bottle “Increase your bench by 17.5%”
I think Slim Shots are funny. “It’s the natural, safe way to reduce bodyfat. I didn’t change my diet at all.” On the bottom of the screen it says diet and excercise was done during the time taking slim shots, and that slim shots DO NOT ACTUALLY HELP YOU LOSE FAT, it just helps reduce cravings for food.
It actually says it does not help you lose fat in the small print, but people still buy it? wow.

2 points… most people dont read the fine print, and secondly a whole lot of people these days are f–king idiots.
speaking of N.O explode, i was buying some more protein powder today and i looked at a N.O expldoe and i couldnt even read it was sooo shiny with tiny tiny writing
Suggestion:
5top “reading” Muscle and Fitness.
Well, thats hard to answer. Open any bodybuilding magazine and you’ll find 5 of them within the first few pages.
I was reading one today and saw an ad for one that would increase strength 800%.
Besides Big Pharma trolling, I find ads that claim pills that can add 3-5 inches to your cock in 2-3 weeks to be quite entertaining.
(I got my supply last week!)
Just kidding:)

Yeah and then there are one’s that say gives you legal performance enhancement (the word legal being in italics).
also, some give you some bogus non-important reason why their basic ingredient is better because it comes from NORTHERN Czechoslovakia or some ridiculous thing like that…yeah like geography has anything to do with anything.

To be completely fair and precise, actually Bill Phillips did not say exactly this with regard to HMB. What he said was that he was so experienced and in tune with his personal biochemistry that he could tell by feel how anabolic a state he was in, and that on HMB he felt like he was on Deca.
It wasn’t “just like Deca” or “gains like Deca” but “Feels like Deca!” though with the claim of having the personal ability to judge anabolism by feel. So pretty much the same as you said, but not quite exactly.
On the geography thing, while not related to the supplement industry, there have been some local ads here from an appliance store on this special sale they were having on closeout washers and dryers obtained in some foreclosure deal. The woman doing the ad constantly repeated, “They’re from CLEVELAND, folks!” “From CLEVELAND!”
I was not able to figure why the fact they were from Cleveland was thought to be a motivational selling point. But I guess it is no different than the thought that touting Northern Czechoslovakia as a source ought to persuade people to buy.
I guess I am just ignorant of the fact that stuff from Northern Czechoslovakia is so much better than that from, say, Southern Czechoslovakia, or that I really need appliances FROM CLEVELAND!

Yes…don’t you know that Cleveland is to Appliances as Detroit is to automobiles and Czechoslovakia is to supps and Colorado is to Democrats.
Most of the musclemags out there have about 8 pages of advertising and 2 pages of actual articles and then the advertisements look like articles themselves.
The only difference is that the ads use larger and more colorful pics than an actual article.
You have to thumb through the last page of the ad to find the disclaimer that says it’s an advertisement.
I’ve just about given up on reading the things, but my nephew buys them and they occasionally have an interesting article in them, but I borrow his, I won’t pay a dime for them.

i worked in a gym in my town that would buy 25 kg bags of pure whey concentrate from the milk company then mix in some milk shake mix so the shakes would get that frothy look and mix this foul sugar infused concoction in the back in a cement mixer and 1 bag would cost 300 bucks then theyd pour said product into their own plastic containers weighing 2.25 kgs and sell them to their unsuspecting gym members for 100 bucks each, yum
