Gym And Supplement Discussion

[triggerhappy]

Its from a root. Most health food shops sell it.

Actually my mate swore it was one of the best things that helped him kick a 10 year meth habit. No bullshit.

Best way i can describe the mental benefits is when you go to do something and second guess your self. It stops a lot of that and makes it easier to make decisions

[L33SH]

look it up Dan, it's worth using

[Trozzle]

Very interesting, and to be honest I'm actually very surprised the shit isn't f**king scheduled the way our government reacts to any compound that has well....ANY effect whatsoever on our bodies.

Further, I actually thought it was nothing more than a flavour of the month supplement jumping on the "superfood" bullshit bandwagon. A fad which would soon pass once the myriad of stupid little girls and their goldfish memory capacity forgot about it. Like garcinia cambogia.....the joke that shit is lol

Will do some reading and consider getting a sample from my mate's shop

[triggerhappy]

i wonder how long it will be before the govt bans trt and hrt therapies.... Its expensive!

[No Crust Racing]

Mmmm, I'm a little skeptical...

Why isn't this more widely known if it's the bee's knees.

Try it.. Cheap if you dont like it ill buy the rest off you.

Its better known in healthfood rather than gym scene

[No Crust Racing]

Can't hurt to try I guess.

Started trying DAA, immediate affect was keeping me awake so was working back on dose but injured shoulder before being able to tell if it helped.

[triggerhappy]

what kind of shoulder injury? My opinion on shoulders if you do a good amount of damage they are fuct for good. Know from experience. Try narrow grip bench and shoulder press not as narrow as a triceps bench but half way between that and normal style bench. Has done mine wonders

[No Crust Racing]

Just a minor tendon strain.

Have had one before, other side, and recovered fine over time.

Had a big gym session on a Friday, then 6-7hrs in the yard the next day, then another the day after and strained it. Had a full week off so far after doing one session and it not feeling right.

Will give it another week at least I'd say.

As Triggerhappy said, it's more well-known in the general 'naturopath/health food' scene than the gym/fitness scene.

That, and most sites I had a read of just now completely and utterly lacked ANY sources for their vague and not even remotely guaranteed claims - scientific or anecdotal.

Regardless, cheap cheap so why the hell not. Bulk Nutrients do it for $55/kg, listing a normal dose as anywhere from 2 - 6g daily. So yeah, f**k all.

[No Crust Racing]

The lack of credible resources was something I noted too.

I might think about it when my shoulder comes good and i start to get back into "loads" rather than light BS.

Wow that is cheap we have been paying a lot more than that. In saying that I dont buy much online apart from second hand goods. Im one of those people that pays more to support local business. That might change seeing that price though

[No Crust Racing]

That's something I struggle with too, wanting to support locals but not wanting to get fleeced.

My last pair of outdoor shoes were $230 locally or $110 delivered from amazon...

Bulk Nutrients are Australian owned (and most if not all of their products are Australian produce too). There's irony in going into a 'local business' to 'support them', then buying an imported product from an overseas company

Plus I give no f**ks for the bleeding hearts of (most) small businesses. Fit in or f**k off. There's significantly more detrimental things for small business going on in our country than online shopping perhaps something that actually resulted in the average person having enough cash to spend on whatever goods they're after so they don't even feel the need to bargain hunt online lol

TL;DR - buying BN products is almost certainly supporting local businesses and therefor Australian jobs more than paying 3x what you should be for an imported product from your 'local supp store', imo.

I buy only from BN.

[Trozzle]

Same here cheapest, and Aussie owned+manufactured

Unless of course it's something my mate stocks in his supp store. Then I'd rather support him, lol. Though this is only for things like Quest bars and PB2 etc. Stuff you can't buy from BN because it isn't simply just a single "product" like whey, beta-alanine, etc

I support local suppliers with my supplements

Yep, 2kg of rump steak from Woolies

[The Bogan]

I use Maca with the green Natures own powder stuff.

I like to think its a healthy mid morning drink.

Its easy to use as the dry powders fit in a small Tupperware container so I can just throw it in my work or gym bag and make it up when I want.

The taste is one that you get use to, the green stuff is nice but the maca's nutty flavour is fairly strong and almost overpowers the flavour.

All up it works out to be about $1 per serve.

Do I get results, not sure but I'm feeling healthy, don't need to strangle to many people and take a dump like clock work.
