ive been eating the advantage protein bars with (~24g of protein) pretty damn good considering... could someone shed some light on these and their effectivness compared to other types and forms of protein? (when and how much should i consume?)

A little off topic, but Wildcat about the tight, how often do you take it or in what amounts. Im only taking one a day as per the bottle's recommendations, but everything who takes it seems to take more than this.

[Wildcat]

^i took 2 at one time once and i was bouncing off the walls. lol, to cut weight i reccomend taking it 3 times daily, once first thing in the morning, another sometime in the afternoon and the last one sometime before 5pm, as it might mess with your sleep.

Damn being an ecto... GNC took me for a lot of cash before I started reading up on what I was buying

GNC =general nutrition crooks, ive dropped some cash in that store too.

And? What's your point?

My comment was in reference to this laughable "information":

synthol is just steriods without the active ingredient of testosterone. an oil based vit b12 will have the same effects.

So keep it down smart guy.

Generic Name: Creatine Blend
Brand: Champion Nutrition Creatine Xtreme
Comments: Started usage after I had done more research on creatine. Used only a small dosage though, 2 half scoops per day mixed with the transporters. Gained some water weight and noticed a difference, wont use my entire life though.

Generic Name: Taurine
Brand: Champion Nutrition
Comments: Used as a creatine transporter, comes free in small tubs with the creatine, too small to be able to credit any gains.

Generic Name: Glutamine

Comments: Used as a creatine transporter, comes free in small tubs with creatine. I recognize the value of glutamine in muscle recovery, but it's hard to credit this product with any gains.

any news on the bars?

Many of these meal replacement or protein bars are just loaded with useless carbohydrates, that's why they taste so great.

Now this Atkins one you are talking about claims to only have 2.5 grams of "digestable" carbohydrates (whatever that means) per bar. They also claim to be a good source of vitamin C, Zinc, and Calcium.

I don't see any problem with you taking them, just don't take them too seriously. They should be replacing meals, I'd just use them as a supplement and have them in my car or whatever so I could grab one when I'm hungry.

They definitely aren't going to make or break your fitness, there aren't any side-effects associated with them... perhaps other than the price, these bars all get pretty expensive.

Grab one a day and you'll be fine, just make sure you are working out hard and also eating your 6 healthy meals everyday.

Here's the news: eat real food not chocolate bars masquerading as something else.

tight is a good product - so is Lipo 6, can be found at Better Bodies on 16th across from Peters Drive Inn.

[89coupe]

Tight is a terrible product and should be avoided. It contains Yohimbine which is a component of Yohimbe and can have very harmful side effects if abused.

Yeh, and what does it say right on the bottle. Do not exceed one pill per day. How many of you have taken more then one a day?
