Nutrabolics Anabolic Window, Review!!!!
Nutrabolics Presents:
Anabolic Window
Maximize Growth Potential!
A Post-Workout Recovery And Growth Matrix!
The post-workout "anabolic window" is the limited yet precise period of time in which muscle growth potential is at its greatest. Only Nutrabolics has been able to crack the growth code by precisely tapping into the body's anabolic window with this post workout supplement. Anabolic Window represents a truly revolutionary scientific breakthrough in post workout recovery that begins with the inclusion of the two superior rapidly absorbed proteins - Ultra High D.H. complete spectrum Whey Protein Hydrolysate and Cross-Flow Microfiltrated Whey Protein Isolate. Add to this the physique altering properties of our patent pending Anabolic Shock Matrix, and also our advanced Multi State Insulinotropic Carbohydrate Blend that has the ability to act as a superior natural transport system and replenish the body's glycogen stores, and you have the perfect product to put your body into Anabolic Overdrive!
When consumed immediately following intense resistance training or athletic activity, this revolutionary formula creates the perfect post workout hormonal environment to trigger anabolic action via enhanced protein synthesis and nitrogen retention, increased GH and IGF-1 secretion, accelerated glycogen synthesis and enhanced cell volumization. Most importantly, Anabolic Window by Nutrabolics mixes instantly and tastes absolutely incredible!
First off Taste: (9/10) - I have been using lemonade anabolic window, at first i just thought it was ok, but once i mixed it with ice cold water it was awesome and i actually craved it. It kinda tastes like sweet lemon candy.
The product itself: (8/10) - While i have been on this product i have had better recovery than usual i tested this out by using it 4 3 weeks and then i went back to my normal postworkout shake for a week. In the weeks of anabolic window i was hardly sore at all.
Price: (7/10) - Im going by AUS prices here so considering this its good by our standards, for example Anator (also love this product) over here is $135 and anabolic window is $120
Overall - (8.5/10) - I have enjoyed using this product and it is a treat 2 drink it and i will look into buying another tub in the future.

Three counterpoints;
1. The lemonade flavor is not what I expected. It's a bland lemon flavor. Think bland lemon pudding and you have the idea.
2. Using a shaker cup and ice cubes the powder clumps.
3. On a happy note, it's not creating an insulin surge. Such insulin surges, ala Anator P70, cause me to be extremely sleepy for an hour after drinking. Since I need to work during this time, this is not acceptable. Anabolic window doesn't have this affect on me.
peace,
Cherokee

i think that the lemonade tasted sweet and 2 me it had no clumps and mix better than my DE whey. I was using a shaker 2.

okay well so the results have left you feeling your getting a better recovery. So is that giving you more energy to train harder or not? How is your training going with it? Im thinking of getting into the cell tech range but I guess Im a little scared of the price range really. I got told that the flavours werent that great either, well the grape one anyways.
so really just want to know, has it helped your training and is it worth the cash

I think that it is worth the cash because thats all i need post workout, b4 i used to have to mix up 4 or five different things which cost more anyway so i think that the price is good. It helped me alot with recovery so yes i could train better with it.

dextrose?
because there's a creatine in the powder are you supposed to take this with dextrose to absorb it? or is the whole point of this shake not to spike insulin?

No dextrose needed with Anabolic Window.
It already contains a special carb complex that acts as a natural transport system and includes modified potato starch, d-glucose, instantized maltodextrin, and trehalose.
Best of luck with the product. If you have any questions let me know!

Thanks Beej, I was just curious as to why nutrabolicjon said there was no need for it (there insn't) but included it in his formula anyway.

I think he meant you don't need to add any extra. 'billy.' asked: "supposed to take this with dextrose to absorb it," and I think his response meant you don't need to take the shake with additional dextrose, because there are already carbohydrates. It's worded kind of funny though, I had to read it a couple times to even think that - I'm not completely sure if that's what he meant though.

thanks so much man! i really appreciate that! i have another question for you since you've already answered my first one. i train first thing in the morning on basically an empty stomach. i eat a meal before bed, sleep for 9-10 hours, and then as soon as i get up i take 1 scoop of NOZ (nutra-bolics) and a pill form arganine (NE2 from Controlled Labs) and neither of them have any caloric value. ive only been doing this for a couple weeks, but havent been taking either with any sugar and just realized that i've probably been training on an empty stomach, what do you think i should eat with them, or before my workouts?

INSTEAD of my usual post workout protein shake ?
I've been reading a lot about this product and I'm interested in trying it. However, sometime ago I had tried Muscletech's Anator and the folks that sold it, would tell their clients that it should not replace the post workout protein and that an extra protein shake should be taken with it. Not sure that was the way to go but now my question is: can I take Anabolic Window INSTEAD of my usual post workout protein shake ?
Thanks

IMO i think thats a good idea and then follow up the anabolic window with a solid meal 45-60min later and u should be good to go.

Of course you can take the Anabolic Windor (or Anator for that matter) and only AW or Anator.
An extra protein shake is not required or necessary. What should be done is take the AW or Anator POSTworkout and then, 20-45 mins later, consume a good postworkout meal.

I really like AW.
The lemonade taste...for me...not so good. Its not BAD, just a long way form good. It reminds me of leeks.
But I think the product is killer.
BTW- BigNY- nailed it. I drink my AW shake on the drive home from the gym, and aim to eat real food about an hour later.

Are you on the newer version of AW??
NutrabolicsJon sent me a 5 day supply of AW - Chocolate! And the taste is AMAZING!!
Though, it seems that they removed the creatine content from it..which I actually don't mind..I just add my own mono in the mix and it's perfect!

I don't like anabolic trigger because of Beta alanine ethyl ester not good for your health.

I ordered from a website 2 NUTRABOLICS, ISOGAINER 5LBS a chocolate taste and a rasbery taste. Instead of bringing me 2 Isogainers, I have one Isogainer with rasberry/yogurt and I have something called Anabolic Window, post workout recovery and growth matrix for the chocolate taste.
I was wondering what the Anabolic Window, post workout recovery and growth matrix helps you with? Do u take it before the training? does it help u lift heavier weights? What is the difference between the Isogainer?
Kind regards,
Petros Avgousti
