Any of you guys have any experiance with ZMA? I’m in the US ARMY babysitting over here in Kosovo and all my friends swear by it. One has even said he won’t workout unless he’s taken some. Is ZMA as good as they exaggerate?
I would say generally no. But I do find that I sleep better and am better rested if I have been taking it consistently. But it is definitely a subtle thing. I suppose that it depends on how much you’re defficient in these minerals. Hope this helps.
I like ZMA, but it’s not something that’s going to blow you up quickly. It’s like a multi-vitamin in that regard. Helps me sleep and recover faster though. It’s cheap so I always take it.
Personally, it did nothing at all for me. But I guess it all depends if your deficient in those minerals.
I agree with TEK, my experience was about the same. The guys who get GREAT results from ZMA, are clearly deficient
It may just be me, but I feel that i’ve gotten impressive results from ZMA. Maybe being an 18 year-old college student (cafeteria food providing minerals? please), thats why I am so deficient and responded well. It seems that my acne flares up initially when taking ZMA, so I assume that my hormomes are jumping.
I used ZMA for a few months and didn’t notice any difference. I guess I didn’t have a zinc deficiency.
