NO products have no effect!

jinkweon · 12-12-2008, 12:07 PM

I did a search and could not find any information on whether other people are finding that NO products do not affect their work out. I have tried fast twitch by cytosport and no xplode by bsn, but neither of them seem to boost my energy level.

i've tried increasing my no xplode to 3 scoops but i still dont feel any difference. Are there some people who are just not affected by NO or what? I'm sure it affects everyone differently but I just dont ever feel the stuff kicking in.

its not the NO content that boosts your energy, its the caffeine content, and it sounds like you may not be sensitive to stims

yep, if you drink coffee, tea, or energy drinks alot then you have a tolerence. Alot of studys say to cycle caffine supps 3-4 months on with two weeks off. and that means like drinking maybe 100mg a day so think maybe four cans of soda a day or one cup of joe. If this doesnt work then i have heard of people having reverse effects to caffine though i think its mostly a mental thing like add and adhd. hope this helped lates bro

Nitric oxide products are supposedly for the pump while pre workout stimulant containing products give energy.

What you have used so far is a combination. If you have taken in to many stimulants prior to using or take the product while stomach is full the effects are reduced a lot.

A proper cycle time off of 3-4 weeks of no stimulants could help

I would also recommend you start researching ingredients in the products, as it sounds you had no clue about what you are using.

Might be a good thing, you'll save money. We seem to be willing to spend a lot for a temporary pump.

I got two free samples of NO Xplode and honestly they did absolutely nothing for me. Not saying they don't work, just I didn't get anything from them. On the other hand I've used two jugs of superpump250 and responded amazingly, I can't wait till I can get my next jug haha.

Oh and as for the tolerence build up, I've been drinking pop since I was like 10 haha, used to drink 5-6 cans a day, and I still respond to NO, so who knows. I suggest give superpump a try, then if it doesn't work try something else, maybe a beta alanine product.

Ya pretty much, the only thing in NO's worth having is AAKG and Citrulline Malate. The rest is all fluff and there to stump you into thinking..WOW look at all these names I dont understand but theres a lot so it must be worth it. Really from No explode AVPT (Advanced Volumizing & Performance Technology) part of NO explodes 18,000mg Proprietary Blend.umm what is in it....Granted this no contains the aakg and citrulline malate but to me the rest is just bs.
Also Vapor from muscle tech.. Cinnamon Extract (As Cinnamomum Cassia Blume) (Bark)....ya wheres the research this actually does anything for you besides take up more nutrition facts. I only buy the aakg and citrulline malate because it does allow me to go long in the gym and I feel just as strong on every exercise and they also help me not fatigue much if any. Everyone is different but these are the only things worth buying, aakg is 25$ for 166 servings (and you only need 1 scoop but of course 2 is best...I only take 1) and also 34$ for citrulline has 144 servings (same 1 scoop but you can take 2) so I pay ~ $70 every 120 days so its not a big deal to me. NO's to me are a waste of money, if I had more the only no I would buy is SuperPump250 but im fine with what I got.

nutrabio.com has the raw stuff w/o fluff for cheap. im not plugging them, Im married and in the army so I dont got the money like I use to have to buy fluff products. Also they got 50lbs of unflavored protein (its really good, mixes well and has no taste and mixes really well, again cheap as.s here) for ~300$ but theres 871 servings and it lasts me ~ 4-5months at 5-8 scoops a day.

You shouldn't base your judgment on NO products after trying those 2. Look up reviews on the topic and also some reviews on NO Xplode and Fast Twitch. There are many very solid options out there. Currently using Plasmagen Nitrate will very good results. I recently did a log for Myogenix HyperShock and enjoyed that as well.
