NO-explode vs nano-vapor vs NO-Shotgun
Ok i want to get Nitric Oxide Which is better: NO explode, Nano-Vapor or NO Shotgun? I was told by two guys that work at GNC on different occasions when i ws there that all three are good but NO-Shotgun is the best. They said personally for them, NO explode didnt work well for them after a few weeks. and the same thing for Nano-Vapor. They recommend i get NO shotgun. It dosent taste that great but the pumps are good and they have been using it for a good while now. After speaking to them I wasnt sure what to get.
I know that NO Explode has been popular for the past two years, it's the best selling NO supplement and alot of people use it. It is the most expensive one out of the three at GNC but I think Im gonna try NO-Explode first. what do you guys think?

Last 2 weeks I bought a tub of Superpump 250 and NO-Xplode. I tried 4 workout days on the Superpump 250 and I found a small increase to energy nothing amazing.
Last night I tried NO-Xplode and shortly after I could feel the energy and it really did help with my pumps I got to increase my weight and still get all my reps out. I would definetly recommend NO-Xplode.
I would say its different for different people though and I am sure superpump 250 works better or just as well for some than NO-Xplode.

I've used all three. Shotgun and NanoVapor have better formulas then NoXplode. For one thing Shotgun and NanoVapor have BCAA's in them so that gives them an edge right off the bat. I had better workouts on Shotgun and NanoVapor then NoXplode.
I've done two tubs of Shotgun and only a few samples of NanoVapor so I can't judge it completely but you can't go wrong with either.
If you want to save some money look into Shock Therapy, it's the best price to results product in the category.

If this is your first time trying these types of products, the Nano-Vapor may upset your stomach. I would check to see if VPS reformulated NO-Shotgun yet. The taste was horrible. I contacted them a few weeks ago and they were reformulating for taste but I can't remember the date set. SuperPump 250 and NO-Xplode are both good. Only thing about NO supps w/ stimulants are that you drag when you cycle off and hard to get up for workouts. Drink plenty of water when using NO and creatine products- 2 gallons per day. Use for 4-12 weeks, then cycle off for 3-6 weeks. For cheaper products, green bulge, white flood and shock therapy are not bad. Hope this helps.

I tried Nano Vapor after bieng on NO-Xplode for 2 months and thought it sucked. I'm back on NO-Xplode and love it. The day I tried Nano Vapor I was yawning in the gym and left early for the first time in 7 months.

I've tried both naNO VAPOR and NO-Xplode as well as White Flood.
Personally, I had the best results from White Flood (the effects lasted longer and it never lost it's potency, I could stick with 1 or 2 scoops <depending on the workout> through an entire two jugs). Next would be BSN's NO-Xplode, a few flavors tasted good (Their lemonade mixed with the Berry CellMass is an AMAZING treat) but after the first jug I was up to 4 or 5 scoops to try to get the same effect (Eventually, too much N.O. will hit you in the stomach in every bad way). Lastly, naNO VAPOR. I thought MuscleTech got it right but after the first week I was up to almost 3 scoops and didn't feel much.
Keep in mind, these products vary from person to person, there may be one ingredient that works for you that may not work for most others and vice versa...
GOOD LUCK!

That's a great testament and judging by your avatar whatever your doing is working...and working well. But I bet it wasn't the NO that hit your stomach, it was probably the caffiene. Each scoop is the equivalent of 6 cups of coffee. NO-Xplode doesn't have all that much aganine, in fact they suggest stacking it with Nitrix which is a pretty large source of Arganine (NO) in itself.
I wish I didn't get such good results from NO-Xplode (ok that didn't sound right), because I hate the idea of taking in 12 cups of coffee at once. Fact is I've been at 2 scoops for over 8 weeks and it's still working great for me. Other than having a caffiene deprivasion headache on off days. :/

Thanks Bro!
You may have a point. About a month ago I decided to really OD on some Nitric Oxide because I wanted to see what it would do (I was hoping for some genetic miracle)...
I experienced the genetic miracle, I was hitting chest and everything looked great... the rest of the day - not so great, talk about feeling like you've just been beat to hell!!!
Anyway, if you're enjoying BSN and you take their CellMass, you should consider mixing the Lemonade NO-Xplode with the Berry CellMass, tastes like pink lemonade to me!

Just make sure you stir it, don't shake it in a shaker cup...I still have stains on my sink overhang from it "Xlpoding".

MuscleTech NANO VAPOR -Lost of Strength??????
I tried Vapor and energy was ok. However, I was not able to complete my 7th rep for most of all my exercise. Using this product, I felt I was out of gas and strength after my 6th rep. Has anyone gone thru a similar problem???
Could it be because too much blood is flowing thru my vains causing the lost of strength??
Thanks!!!

I'm not sure if it takes a while for your body to get used to whatever is in it (the list of ingredients is as long as my arm), but that's exactly what it did to me. OUT of GAS. Maybe it gets better with more days of using it under your belt???? The taste is awefull too...not that it matters, it only takes a few seconds to down a supplement drink.

How many days did it take for you to re-capture the energy back?? I hope it doesn't take long because I wasn't satisfy with my workout the other day.

I sound like a damned BSN rep, but I swear that syntha-6 is the shiz too. Cell mass is a great Post training and PM supp as well. People say BSN is all hype but I think the stuff flat works.

I just tried the cookies n cream syntha-6 sample. it's ok. I prefer Optimum nutrition's Casien protien or Muscle Milk for meal replacement/before bedtime. and I use ISO Sensation by Ultimate nutrition for post workout.

eating a good meal 2 hours before your workout and not eating immediately before is what gives you good pumps. N.O. products don't do anything.

When I used to use NO products the best that worked for me was White Blood By Controlled Labs. Compared to Mri NO2 and Pumptech (which both worked pretty well but were way overpriced). White Blood outperforms them + is more cost effective.
I recommend trying it.

i'm not starting a debate team or anything... but
1- while i agree that the "right diet" is key... not everyone can be dedicated 100 percent to a consistently clean diet... i know there a people who actually don't take supplements and rely solely on their diet... but that is very rare and difficult(not impossible)
2- don't do anything for who? you? that is a pretty broad statement... while there is scientific backing for both sides of the argument... i can personally say that it helped me get good "pumps" ... and not to mention this rash
