I second that.

It might be good for PCT, but if you use it on-cycle, you're just wasting your money. Your natural production of testosterone will be suppressed/shutdown on-cycle no matter how much ZMA you take.

a recent muscular development article pretty much said zma's are useless

It helped me sleep and increased my libido slightly.

ZMA only works to raise testosterone if you are lacking zink or magnesium. If you have normal levels, ZMA will do nothing for you.

I wouldn't be so sure that ZMA is worthless:

Zinc may have a physiological role in regulating pituitary prolactin secretion.
Login IS, Thorner MO, MacLeod RM.

We studied the in vitro influence of physiologically relevant zinc concentrations on the pituitary synthesis and secretion of prolactin (Prl). Zinc in concentrations between 1 and 10 microM reduced Prl secretion and, to a milder extent, synthesis, but not basal or stimulated growth hormone (GH) or LH release. At a supraphysiological concentration of 100 microM, zinc markedly decreased Prl synthesis and secretion, but increased LH secretion. The ability of a physiological zinc concentration to influence Prl secretion suggests that this trace element may have a role in the in vivo regulation of Prl release.

ZMA is not that bad of a product...
