This is interesting.

The BN stuff basically has zero carbs, if it's the protein powder. One of best ratio (protein vs fillers) on the market.

I certainly don't get bloated when i was using it (been a few months now since ive even trained).

A fair few others are using it too, see what they say...

It's my 2nd batch that I've purchased from them within the past 6 months. I'm thinking my tolerance to particular foods, preservatives or SOMETHING has dissapeared. I dunno.

I got 1kg of Syntrax Matrix which I'll use and see if there are any changes.. Should last me a month.

to be continued..

BN is 27g in 30g - 90% Protein

IP SP is 31g in 40g - 77% Protein

So a bit more extras than you'd realise :)

And when I say that I mean things like Fats, Sugar/Carbs & other stuff. Sometimes they include calcium like IP SP does.

In the end it comes down to your diet and what you need. Some people want as much protein as possible as they get their other stuff elsewhere in the diet etc.

The blonde chick is nice too.. she can be the backup if required.

Lou? Yeah she's the gym manager/owner or whatever you'd call it for the place. Apparently she was in my year in highschool - she recognised me and remembered my name, I was like pinch.gif who teh fark are you? I'm stupid lol

Like I stated no fillers or stabilizers

6.8% carbs... Which is not a bad thing btw

Little bit of fat/sugar as stated above..also has added Glutimine And other Aminos...

Very good product, defiantly recommend it, actually tells you everything that's in it

People can eat all the protein they want fact is your body is only goin to use so much of it...

People fail to see the value of BCAA and other amino acids, they are just as important

From what I understand, most beneficial supps are as follows:

1. Whey Protein

2. Creatine Monohydrate

3. Branched chain amino acids (BCAA)

4. Omega 3 fish oil

5. Nitric oxide with caffeine (promotes vascularity, 'pump', and focus)

and obviously water.

Well yes, but depends on what you want/need - as I said (twice). It's cheaper than the IP-SP - IF you want a protein only supplement.

The BN stuff has BCAA's in there, feel free to go and read up on it. You'll also see it has even more detailed listing of what is in it as well :)

Whey protein contains BCAA's, so in general you would be discussing amounts/forms of it :)

Personally I don't feel the need to take BCAA's, I've noticed very few lifters I've met actually do anything except a high-protein diet & whey.

Depends how cheap you get it for I guess, I get 10 pounds/4.55kg for 140 bucks with free delivery

Yea whey protein has bcaa but you can defiantly benefit from more.

you ll find either people don't take it cause they don't know about it, or have tried it and don't know how and when to take it

or the real big juiced up steroided monkeys that do know about it don't need it cause steroids do a better job then taking legal Aminos...

I'd BCAA are pretty important as they make up a large percentage of muscle tissue lol

Read this u might change ur mind

Wouldn't be putting creatine in front of BCAA

Was talking to a nutrition expert the other day and he reckons those pre workouts with caffeine have more cons then pros in terms of strength training

^^^^ not feeling the need to take extra aminos

Your quoting me, not Ash :P

I'd prefer to read this article: http://blog.metaboliceffect.com/page/2/ :)

I'm just saying its not required, there's nothing wrong with supplementing. Unless your wasting too much $$$ on supplementing, which most beginners do after a visit to GNC (that includes me quite a long time ago :)).

Sweet cheers for the article.. Didnt realize the effects that BCAA's have on weight loss

Still interesting though cause as ive been taking them for quite a while now and I've been stacking on the weight..( Up from 86 to 96 in the last 6 months)... Obviously results vary on diet and types of training

I'd say a couple of that 10kg is fat I do admitt but I'm getting stronger so I'll be sticking with it as weight gain and strength is may goal atm, if I get the strength without the weight even better

Way I see it is that if it helps with recovery and gives you good lean muscle it's worth taking

    • Hot tip, stop picking at shit. Live in bliss instead   From my recent experience in rust repairs, white it may seem to not go much further back, you'll still need to cut back a bit further.  From what I can see there, the outer skin, and the inner is rusted too. From what I can see you've got the inner one which is all structural, and window likely affixes too.   If tag Murray Calavera here, but my phone won't let me tag him, he'd probably be able to give the best advise.   I do know, welding roof panels is a right pain in the bollocks! Very heavy to heat distort the roof and warp it all.
    • Some of the filler.   Also if I look under the top flap of metal it starts looking good quite close to the edge. I get the feeling it doesn't go much further.
    • So, I finally started digging at the bit of my roof that was cracking and bulging a bit. Well, it was just thick filler that was covering some pretty bad rust. I didn't find the edges, I was too bummed to keep going.  There are a few holes as you can see. There was just so much filler but looks like no attempt under the filler to prime or use rust converter, just slapped filler on exposed rust.  Anyway, I'm going to take the windshield out and find the edges. I'd love to fix this myself as I'm pretty sure it'll be expensive to get done properly. I was thinking I could just get a cut piece from another E39 and just weld it in place as it would be the right size and shape.  Thoughts?
    • This is the territory of the "Stage 1/2/3 Golf GTI/R" or otherwise off the shelf tune with (relative to before) minor mods. It's easier now. Downpipe and Tune and boom, big increases. Stage 1 OEM+ is where it's at. This is where the niche evolved into and it's really easy to see why. It's rare to even NEED to consider changing turbos or going to aftermarket ECU's or building bottom ends for more power. Stage 1-2-3 will get you a LONG WAY. Civic Type R turbo GR Yaris/Corolla Anything with B58 (MKV Supra/x40i) Anything BMW in General Anything Audi in General Any turbo AMG RenaultSport Turbo offerings Korean Elantra N/I30N Ecoboost Mustangs Focus RS? List goes on. I would argue in the future it won't even need to go on... M3P is pretty rapid out of the box...
    • There is a way, but it's not with the same cars. You need to find the same vintage of car, that we had. Realistically, that was an affordable car with aftermarket parts around. So what people need to find is a car that had a decent base in its day, and can be modified. They're looking for a car year make of 2010 to 2015 really... Aus could have done it if Holden didn't fold as V8 commodores were cheap, and if Ford didn't get expensive thanks to COVID, then you could cheaply play with FG Barras. Realistically, those are just a bit heavier, four door skylines. I'm sure the US and UK have similar cars they could find.
