MuscleTech

John_Raz · 08-09-2008, 01:19 PM

I was wondering what everyone thought about this product.
Ive been taking the CellTech before I workout and then the NitroTech after I workout. Then later that day I will take the MassTech as the bulker.
Any thoughts?

I along with many others dont really care for MuscleTech. Only a select few of their products are actually decent, and even those are way overpriced. In my opinion most of their products are garbage. MuscleTech uses people like Jay Cutler and their ridiculous advertising and marketing schemese to lure in the younger people. Again their stuff is WAY overpriced.

If there are certain products you are using or thinking about trying let us know and we can most likely find you a better alternative for a lot less money. CellTech IMO is garbage. NitroTech I never took but heard it wasnt too bad. Some people seem to like Leukic a lot and I am sure it does good, but its way overpriced and you can find a better alternative. NanoVapor is probably the only product they have that I tried and liked, but I wont buy it because its overprices and I can find better supplements for a cheaper price.

Most Muscle Tech products are actually pretty good supplements. The problem with them is that they are way overpriced which is why I look a different way.

For a creatine - Look into some like Ultimate Nutrition Creapure, Controlled Labs Green MAGnitude, Universal Storm. All great creatines for a smaller price.

For protein - Should always look into solid clean food sources for your protein but its important to have a shake immediately upon completing your workouts for quick absorption. You could look into Universal Torrent, or basic ON 100% Whey Protein!

Make sure you have your basics in a multi vitamin and BCAA.

Everyone likes something different so you really just need to try some things until you find what you like. This is what I do and my goal is to put on as much mass as I can...

I bought a weightgainer protein first thing in the morning so I can get all the protein and calories I need.

I take a PreWorkout shake with Whey Protein about an hour or more before I lift. I normally buy a cheaper Whey protein poweder because I go through it faster. Right now I have American Whey. Its cheap and tastes great.

I take a preworkout supplement like Black Powder or VPX's NO Shotgun (my favorite at the moment) to give me my energy and pumps.

I take a PostWorkout shake with Whey Protein as soon as I get home. I put in creatine, glutamine and dextrose along with my whey. Some people argue that glutamine and dextrose dont do anything, but I like them and they work for me.

Then I drink a MuscleMilk shake right before bed. Muscle Milk is a casein protein that digests slower and thats why you want to drink it before you go to bed...so that the hours youre asleep you still have the protein in your body.

I couldnt agree more. You MUST eat your whole foods as they are the best. Protein Supplements are just that, "Supplements" and they should only be used in addition to real food. ON 100% Whey is a great protein, the best selling protein out there in fact.

Mtech have a good line, but it's pricey so people avoid it. If you've got the money - go for it, or if you'd rather not waste it take your business to other companies.

One product I swear by is their Anabolic Halo. I can safely say that it works and I've ordered 4 tubs so far. Want to give their new flavors ago, but that stuff is a staple of mine.

look into some controlled labs, gaspri, & other stuff on the forums. Were just trying to save you some money ^_^

I have to say, MT isn't as bad, what they say is kinda borderline to like, false advertisement, but still, like what the others say, there are better.

I can give a few alternatives. (if you don't know these products, just copy paste what i list.)

Celltech - Green mag(controlled labs), creatine monohydrate(higher power), super pump (gaspari)

Nitrotech - ON Whey, ON Nitrocore 24, damatize whey, Syntha-6.

Masstech - CytoSport Cyto Gainer, Ultimate Nutrition Muscle Juice, Optimum Serious Mass, Universal Real Gains

Vapor - White flood, Ragnorak, VPX N.O. Shotgun, Super pump

Hydroxycut - Redline, Meltdown, Dren, Adreanalean, Scorch, Lean Xtreme, and yeah.

Good luck though, training + diet > supplements.

I bought some Nitrotech when I first started working out. It was OK, but not great. After that, I did my research, and bought some ON gold Whey. It blends better, tastes better, and has more protien per serving. I 100% Recommend it.

I'd also never drink the cell tech due to each serving having 75g of sugar! Of course, i'm cutting and not bulking though
