I have a friend who moved here (alabama) from mississippi about 2 years ago. And every now and then one of his friends from there will come up and visit him. One of them was up here this weekend and we started talking and i noticed a bottle of blitz cycle in the back of his truck. I asked him if he liked it and so on and we started talking about other supps. And he made the comment "have you tried that gakic stuff, its crazy man, its pretty much the closest thing you can get to steroids." i started cracking up i started to explain to him that he was wrong but i just said 'yea' and let it be.

Not that bad of a statement. What non steriod would you say is closer to steroids than Gakic? Obviously the gap is huge but really there's nothing inside that gap.

gakic is not the closest thing to roids, its the closest thing to crap and waste of money. I can think of 10 things better than gakic, right now
1.protein
2.creatine
3.glutamine
4.BCAA's
5.multi-vitamin
6.fish oil
7.ZMA
8.natural test booster
9.methoxy
10.HGH

i'm sorry, but why is gakic crap and a waste of money? it is quite a good product.. just because the claims are outrageous, doesn't mean it's not a good product in general... and it's certainly better than 5. multi... 6. fish oil... 7. zma.. 3.. glutamine.Originally Posted by justinmichaelh

You can get a month supply for 30$ from other places just to let you know. There is stuff backing the supplement, just because mt makes it doesnt mean it is bad....overpriced, yes....but not necessarly badOriginally Posted by justinmichaelh

That is kinda the point of the whole storry actually...i know i said its not the closest thing to steroids. I dont think that actually matters, everything else is soo far away (as far as basic GNC type supps go) im not sure theres a way to argue it. I just thought it was funny cuz it was obvious he had read an MT add for it.Originally Posted by davedepezio

Ya cause everyone in the world of bodybuilding knows a multi-vitamin, as soon as you take it, adds 20 pounds of muscle mass to your frame and increases strength by up to 175%. ROFL...Originally Posted by justinmichaelh

i think some people are confusing the difference between OUTRAGEOUS CLAIMS and ACTUAL BENEFITS..
yes, i agree. there are outrageous claims made by MT.. do I expect 10.5% increase? NO... does that make this supplement crap? NO!
I buy supps based on long term benefits, i dont' buy them because I bought into the outrageous claims... just because the claims are silly doesn't mean it doesn't have a good use... just because it's made by MT doesn't mean it's always a scam..

I thought HMB was like Deca- the guys selling it even have "studies" proving it works. Non-salesmen and the real world haven't had much success with it.

the only that are like steroids are steroids themselves, if someone told you the closest legal thing you can get next to a gun, was a knife, would that make sense to you?>

that is true..true...true...true...Originally Posted by Mr. Aries
and true ive been on many other forums that review supps and some of them say the Gakic has had good strength increases for them, others thought it was garbage...so i guess its how the person responds to the product..
here are some and i also believe the claims and price of MT is retarded plus to actually purchase with money...
that is dumb...lol
Pros: instant strength gains
Cons: price
I've used the Gakic and i gotta say that it reallly works! The price is through the roof though, so i just might have to cycle 1 month on and 1 month off! I think that doing that is a much better way to take supplements of this magnitude anyway!
Pros: Instant boost..
Cons: Short lived effects, not enough Pros for the money
I used a bottle of the Gakic powder 5 days a wekek until it was gone, and in the end i can honestly say that yes it wo...
Pros: increase in reps/stamina/power less fatigued
Cons: powder taste awful and EXPENSIVE!!!
Tried it out and noticed a big difference the first time. it is very effective but too damn expensive. what else do yo...
Pros: none
Cons: swallowing 8 expensive nasty pills just for placebo effect
Well i got my free sample of Gakic and gave it a try on chest day. Not only did i not notice the instance 10.5% increa...
Pros: more reps heaver weights
Cons: tastes like feet smell
i have been taking gakic for about 3 weeks just as the label says and i have seen the same results every time
Pros: None
Cons: Expensive Junk
I just wanted to voice my input on Gakic..I started taking it as soon as it arrived at our local GNC store (I know ,I ...
i dont usually suppourt MT but id like to point out the total number of reviews on the certain review place i went to rates this as an EFFECTIVE supp im playing devils advocate but the truth msut be told the fokkin price is insane but perhaps their is actual science behind MT's stuff for onceLast edited by Dallas68; 12-28-2005 at 10:53 AM.

like someone else said saying gakic is the closest supplement to steroids is like saying a knife is the closest thing to a gun. So in reality there not even in the same ballpark so it doesn't even really matter if it is "closer" than other things.
That being said superdrol is probably the closest supplement to steroids. And that is because it is a steroid.

Well, I wouldn't support muscletech regardless of their quality. Their marketing tactics are sleazy at best, and they are well aware of who their advertisements are meant to attract, uninformed consumers. As for them being deemed scammers, I don't feel sorry for them, they brought that upon themselves with their outrageous claims.
that is dumb...lol
