Yes there are no guarantees on this earth there are bad supps out there for sure but also some good ones and in my case(and i suspect for others also)that alot of the good supps are being used by those through word of mouth and endorsments thats the risk we take when we are searching for bodybuilding bliss. But i respect everyone's opinion on this thread

I don't think anyone sees it that way, and it's good to have a good discussion on supps. But as for me, I have been very skeptical of all supplement companies since right before the PH ban. Misleading claims, and catchy marketing angles mislead 99% of consumers that aren't VERY knowledgeable. Left a bad taste in my mouth for most supps. Now with that said, If Gopro said it works, I certainly believe it. I am not a chemical scientist, so I can't say if the ingrediants should work, but for me, I would be wary of what the methyls would do over a long peiod.

Thank you for your confidence in me my friend.

And as far as the methyl's go, although VPX has run blood tests on users of Meltdown on cycles of up to about 16 weeks (with no indications of harm), I still advise people to cycle this product for no longer than 8 weeks at a time. I just think that makes good sense.

I'll do it if you all want to pay for it. I am in a "body transformation challenge" at work. Fools are all going to lose. Anyway I am looking at using this or redline or something to that tune for 4-6 weeks.

GoPro got any samples so I can start sooner than when it is in stock?

Also, simply as a point. DPS has redline cheaper than bodybuilding.com, DPS has meltdown listed at $35 for a 120 mL but bobybuidling.com doesnt have it listed yet. That said I dont know if shipping is free at bodybuilding.com or there are some discounts. Honestly the few $ difference really doesnt matter.

I am going to purchase the product when it comes to Nutraplanet if no one has started to log it i will be happy to would rather purchase it myself so i would feel no pressure to log in a certain way if it works the log will show that if not it would reflect but either way that will be my results it could be different results for others as supps can work for some and not others

Sampling one of the guys or girls here for 4 weeks would be independent...

I'm going to run it for a few weeks (regardless if someone wants to donate some or not) and let you know what I see from it.

GoPro how much of this do I need for 4 weeks. I havent ever done a fat burner for more than 2 weeks and it wasnt recently so I dont have a tolerance/immunity where I may need higher dosages. I can't find anything that talks about dosage just that the bottles are 120 mL.

Do you have any more info on a release date? If it is going to be several weeks from now I am going to order some redline maybe.

Last question. How bad does this make you sweat when you are not working out? I am a financial planner and I dont need to be sweating my dress shirts out in meetings with my clients.

Thanks

Yes, I understand, but I have only been given a certain amount of product to allocate to my clients. This way I can control the variables.

Hopefully once a few people here purchase the product they will post their findings and opinions....good or bad.

First, the product is not a liquid, so the listing of 120 ml is a mistake. They are liqui-gels, and probably will be in bottles of 120 caps.

For most men I would say an effective dose would be 2 caps two to three times per day (on an empty stomach). Bigger and/or more tolerant individuals might need a 3 cap dose (although everyone should start at the lower end).

As for the release date, I wish I could be 100% sure in saying that it should be in the next two weeks, however, I do know that VPX is having some trouble keeping up with demand, which could delay the release a bit more.

And, as to the sweating, I had one client who told me that this was a major problem for him. Most, however, find that the extra sweating occurs only during intense activity.

So we have volunteers, do a thread in the supp forum and log your results.I belive Gopro is telling the truth about his findings and is pushing this because he likes the product but a neutral individual who posted good or bad would seem like a solid indicator of the products effieciency.

Thank you for your confidence in me. I do believe that Meltdown will prove it self to be a solid product.
