Animal M Stak - Is It Worth It?

[WhoButMe]

I've been on M Stak since late April and its been a part of my supplement stack since then. I have been in a bulking stage for the last few months (dating back to the beginning of April). I eat big (as clean as possible of course), try to take in as much fruit and veg as possible, take a multi (Animal Pak), take Casein from ON before bed and also take a weight gainer (Cytogainer). Now I have definitely made mass progress since then....

My question is with the aforementioned listed - Cytogainer and Stak - is it really crucial or even necessary for me to take both Cytogainer and M Stak? Yes, I have been on both combined for 3 months and half but I am starting to doubt the need for Stak.

Please voice your opinions; thanks.

I think these should answer your question appropriately

Animal M Stak is a totally different kind of supplement. The ingredients in Animal M Stak sure look promising, though that does not mean they are guaranteed to build you mass.

I'd say try one month without Animal M Stak and compare how you feel and what you see/measure.

I did not thoroughly read the question,as I just looked at the title...so..
I am just a little confused..you say you have been on M-Stak for about a month..and looking to get on Stak, but questioning whether you need Cytogainer & M-Stak..

I apologize, but I am just a little confused with your post...maybe you can clarify a bit?

Though we do fully guarantee the supplement 100%.

Sorry for the confusion -

I have been on M Stak since the end of April and I have also been on Cytogainer since slightly before that. My question is, is it really necessary for me to take both? So I am asking those here on the site who have experience with one or both and share their experiences since I am thinking of dropping Stak....

No supp is "necessary" or mandatory. They are just that, "supplement"s. Hope this answer helps.

Thanks for the reply Universal Rep - I meant it more along the lines of achieving my goals which are to gain mass. I currently weigh 189 and I am trying to reach an even 200 then begin a cutting phase. Now I just don't know how effective the Stak has been for me in conjunction to my powdered weight gainer where I would need to continue to use both to achieve my goal at the pace that I am going now which is not that bad.

today is my last day of M-stak and Stak while using superpump as a preworkout stimulant. Ive been eating like crazy and drinking tons of whole milk but I really havent noticed that many gains or that much of a difference. I think I would have made the same progress without the universal products.

How long have you been using M-Stak?

If by "gain mass" you mean adding weight ultimately, then the gainer is gonna help more as it's giving you calories, plain and simple. M-Stak, by itself, will not add weight. M-Stak works alongside calories to help shuttle them more efficiently into lean mass (as opposed to bodyfat). This make sense?

Today is the 21st day of taking it. I workout at home with a pretty complete set of freeweights and a couple other things like a power tower so I keep a journal handy and log everythign in between sets. I have trained 17 days and had 4 offdays iin the last 21 days of taking it but still took it as recommended on off days. I have added 5 lbs to a couple lifts and have went from 175-180 but I could have made this progress without the animal stuff IMO. I still want to try animal pump and universal shock therapy in the future but I Dont know If I will be taking M-stak or stak again.

4 days cant be enough rest in that time. Sounds like you're overtraining.

Not to sidetrack to much but I personally take Animal Pump and that is one supplement I am definitely sure about. You definitely feel the difference in your pumps when you're taking them as oppose to when you are not.

I agree....

No problem. M-Stak works primarily through "nutrient-partitioning" and protein synthesis. It's supposed to work alongside a solid diet--whether it be cutting (to help preserve lean mass) or bulking (to shuttle cals more efficiently). Anyways, hope I helped ya out.

Sure did; thanks!
