Starting NO supplementation

[Steve Schade]

And I'm having trouble deciding what I want to go with...Hoping some of you, I think I've seen Chi co and Snikka make comments about NO products in the past, have some thoughts on this. I was considering NO-Xplode, but I've been reading some bodybuilding forums and I'm seeing a lot of people rave about a product called Shock Therapy.

Anyone got any suggestions or reviews of NO products they have used?

[Snikka]

I've used nox-cg3 and no-explode, and they were seemingly similar products.

the xyience was a bit overpriced compared to the bsn (almost twice the noexplode powder compared to the same price noxcg3 canister)

for pump/mental clarity, I'd say they definately work... however due to recent information, I'm getting off all pre-workout no-related products

One of the authors on this site did a really big article on creatine and the dangers of mixing two acids together in a creatine product, NO-XPLODE contains two of these elements that actually blocks the uptake of creatine and has been shown in studies to be linked to heart disease.

This is not my opinion but one of the authors on the site wrote about this. I was on my third container of the stuff and then I went to my local retailer and talked to them and they confirmed, wait let me go get a package and I'll put the two dangerous chemicals on the post...........................

They are Glycocyamine and Guanidine Propionic Acid, these two things combined were said by an author on this site to actually block creatine uptake and can be linked to heart disease.

Anyway I hope this helps. I look for the article real quick and try and post a link.

Here it is,

Dangerous Creatine Article where I got my info, check it out.

about 2-3g of arginine, 3-5g basic creatine mono, and a glutamine supp mixture should provide similar effect. and safe you a lot of money

Soo I take it then you didn't think they were worth taking? Maybe I'll just pick up some arginine then, I was going to get glutamine anyway.

Man I'm reading too many people yak about NO-Xplode, so I'm going to just go ahead and buy a tub of the shit and try it out.

I just made an order from bb.com, 5 pounder of ON whey(cookies N Cream), that crazy mutlivitamin I posted in the other thread called Ultra 4, 7lbs of Now Carbo Gain, Eclipse Glutamine 250 grams, and another bottle of Now tribulus. So I made the 75 dollar mark and I get my free t shirt haha.

I also picked up another 5 pounder of ON whey at the local supp store earlier in town(I'll be set with whey for a while) and I gotta go back tomorrow to get the NO-Xplode.

Tax returns pwn.

Well I've been taking NO-Xplode for about a week, definitely notice the pumps. After I'm done with this tub though I'll probably just pick up a tub of powder of AAKG(L-arginine-alpha-ketoglutarate).

And either it's the no-xplode or the fish oil I've recently added to my diet, but for whatever reason I've had no craving to smoke cigarettes at all this past week.

I've been told by many people this is bullshit. These nitric oxide's are all apparently crap and there is no science to back up they're claims. I have spoke to one dood who said he had gains of 20lbs but for the most part everyone said it was garbage.

I spoke to the supplement guy @ my gym about the stuff and apparently you cant smoke or drink while on these products as you'll see less results or in his words "they wont work".

[Soreno]

what are pumps my boy said he takes noxplode and it gets him mentaly clarified and want to work out and shit what exactly do these nitric oxide things do?
I got a free bottle of pump tech with my mass tech and i wanna know what it does (nitric oxide product)
