yea, what him said. cytogainer along with some dextrose (corn sugar) for PWO is good stuff.

cytogainer you can find at this sites supplements sponsor and dextrose can be found at most health food stores and beer distributors (used for the fermentation process). cytogainer is pretty reasonably priced in comparison to most gainers and dextrose is ridiculously cheap. if you pay more than $1-2 per lb for the stuff, you're getting ripped.

all i read was the same bs "blah blah blah" from yet another supplement company. complex or simple carbs don't matter, it's the GI that is what counts when it comes to carbs.

if something is a quality gainer, it shouldn't need digestive enzymes. the enzymes are usually added to gainers with low quality ingredients cause without the enzymes, your body wouldn't efficiently digest it and you'd get worse gas than most bb's already have.

additionally, they seem to be trying to lead people into thinking that their carbs are a complex, slower digesting form. during PWO, you want ones that are fast digesting and unless absolutely necessary, shakes shouldn't be used any other time of the day. your main focus should be solid foods save for your PWO shake, and that should be kept to high GI carbs like dextrose and maltodextrin.

you're not going to get much better than cytogainer, especially for the price. a company can make whatever claims they want, but all i care about is their ingredients label.

I just bought muscle milk like 30 minutes ago. It is a pain in the ass to open. It took me and my brother PLUS we had to bust out the plyers lol. Im gonna give it a shot and see how it works. I tasted the powder and it was pretty gross. It was really fine but soon as I put it in my mouth it like carmalized, tasted like a flour/chemical/sugery mix. Kinda supprised the poweder was a dark tan considering its supposed to be vanilla. Hope its supposed to be like that......

I went to GNC and they wanted $35. I told them I could get it cheaper. The lady was cool and gave it to me for $27.50 out the door. I was happy no shipping and handling and didnt have to wait for it in the mail.

not sure about GNC but i know Vitamin World will price-match if you bring in a print-out of the price from the website. though i'd much rather give my business to the company offering the better price in the first place, it's good for when you're running low and can't wait for a shipment.

don't ever expect to find gainers, whey, or supplements in either of those stores though that aren't overpriced compared to online prices. the only thing i can get cheaper at Vitamin World is my vitamins. other than that, i do all my shopping online.
