what are some supplements which are a Gimmick or dont work well?
 
Animal m stak or animal stak
 
Seeing as how 99.9% of advertised supplements are gimmicks, wouldnt it be easier to ask what isn't a gimmick?
 
pinnacle nox2
 
yeah


Id say stick with the basics.
 
The majority are not effective, but this doesn't mean they are gimmicks. Of course, most manufactures know to some degree how effective their products are. But none will be completely honest, because why would you buy something that works "moderately well with most people" when you could buy something "garaunted to add 300% more muscle mass!"? That is the nature of the industry. Big promises, sell quick, and by the time people figure out that it isn't worth the money, they move on to something else. How many people wasted $$ on Myo? What a joke! HMB? Maybe if it was real cheap. There is always the next big thing. Look how many have stood the test of time. Very few.
 
Nitric Oxide
HMB
CLA
Colostrum

Anything branded GNC.
I disagree. I use GNC Pro Performance "Creatine Burst". It works awesome! Has:
75 g maltodextrin
10 g creatine mono
taurine, chromium, and much more.
0 fat, 0 protein
Taste good, mixes well, digested and absorbed fast.
One could make their own mix for a bit cheaper, but it is no gimmick. I love it!

don't think I agree with that, maybe 50%. :)
Seeing as how 90% of the supplement market consists of 20958275235 variations on creatine, i say my estimate is closer. :D

88.7% of statistics are based on a random guess. :p
 
42.7% of all statistics are made up on the spot :haha:

These are the basic supplements that I currently use: Whey protein/creatine/glutimine/multi vitimin/anti oxidents/efa's/ephedrine based fat loss stack...I am sure there are other supplements that other lifters can add to the list of basics but I think everything else is just extra or ineffective.

Make your own. It's a helluva lot cheaper. Or I can make it and send it you for the same amount you get charged at GNCrap.

celltech?! Are you serious? Stop falling for the "special 4 page advertising reports"! Make your own. It's so much cheaper.

You could put it together for a little cheaper, but not much. You would have to buy the malto, creatine, ribo, chromium, potassium, taurine, l-serine, all the vits and mins, and guanidinoacetate (if you don't know what that is, here is some info: http://www.ast-ss.com/articles/article.asp?AID=124. Of course, than you have to make it taste good. There are some products where convenience counts enough to pay a little extra. I am very satisfied with Creatine Burst from Pro Performance. But, yes I agree that GNC is a rip off. I know a manager at my local one and he cuts me deals at times. Otherwise, I would just do all (as opposed to most) of my supp shopping online.

These do work, except for maybe "All in one products" depending on which your talking about. The factor is price. RTD's can be substituted simply by throwing whey and water into a shaker :rolleyes: :p & Weight gainners can be made quite economically.
 
For the amount of money it takes to make a batch of Homemade Celltech, you get more for your money and some of the products celltech uses are basically filler becuase they flat out do not work.
