[QUOTE=BenBlue;1623758921]Eh.....been a while. Happy Thanksgiving all ya'll in the states.
What's this talk of exotics? Excelsior and Dark Energy are the bee's knees of the exotic world right now. Shady companies, but I don't give a ****.
My stash lately has been historically small tbh. Not hoarding the pwo's the way I used to. But always have a high stim option and 1-2 normal pres on the go.
Hope everyone is good. And hope your gyms are open. I'm ready to hulk smash my cocksucker premier. Locked down our gyms again. Training outside in the winter isn't fun.[/QUOTE]
Been hearing DVST8 of the union is good... got a tub incoming so I’ll be able to give it a go

Ahhhh. That was it.
For some reason I could not remember
Well RC1’s BF sale is a no from me. Touting ‘over £200’ worth of freebies which consists of a shaker, a t-shirt, a small tub of total war and a lifting belt which they’re trying to say is worth £150.
33% off too which is less than previous non-black Friday sales.

Haven't tried any version of DVST8, but have heard really good things. Always intended to get some but never got around to it.

whelp speak of the devil....... just showed up at my doorstep!
Anyone grab any good BF sales?
I picked up 2 bottles of fish oil here, and some Alphamine and TruMulti 30% off at the PES site.
Didn't really need much this time around.
I wish I could find some Scivation Flexatril online, I know it's disco'ed and I dont even care, that was my favorite joint product.

Check out Swanson Vitamins they have Microlactin in either tabs or caps and that was the main ingredient
in Flexatril and it's more economical then Flexatril.:)

That was fast! hopefully it lives up to the reviews that I've seen on it.

Picked up six five-pounders of ISO100 Chocolate Peanut Butter for $185, called it good there. Unfortunately the stock moved quick and sold out quickly.
Anyone tried the blueberry cobbler Signature whey?

Didn’t even see that new flavor. Would’ve snagged some.

Fearn Lecithin Granules was the brand and I just checked the same place I mentioned had the
Microlactin and it's on sale for 6.74 :eek: that's the lowest I've ever seen it priced.

I bought most of my stuff from PES. 30% off was a good deal.

Very tempted, just don’t know what flavor to try
I eventually caved on the new Mesomorph - Cotton Candy Carnival because I remember loving that one.
I'm also awfully tempted by the MuscleSport Italian Rainbow Cookie flavor...

I just have no idea how it would even taste as a protein powder (chocolate + almond sponge cake + jam?).
Aside from that, I was initially stoked about the Ghost holiday flavor this year of Frosted Sugar Cookie, but then I read the [url=https://blog.priceplow.com/supplement-news/ghost-high-protien-hot-cocoa-mix]Priceplow[/url] coverage on the macros:
Calories: 150
Protein: 25g
Carbohydrates: 6g
Fat: 3g
The article's wording makes it seem like Ghost somehow managed to cram in enough sprinkles to muck up the macros:
"The Ghost Whey Frosted Sugar Cookie is a bit higher in calories than other Ghost Whey flavors, however, it’s definitely worth it considering how many inclusions (sprinkles) are inside every scoop."
It doesn't list the serving size, which can [url=https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2060/6331/products/SFPWhey_US.png?v=1599747086]vary by Ghost's flavors[/url], but even the Marshmallow Cereal is only 130 calories and 5g of carbohydrates - [i]with[/i] actual marshmallow pieces.
This is my beef with not just Ghost, but a lot of companies that [i]insist[/i] on adding these stupid "inclusions" that contribute nothing to the flavor that modern flavor science can not merely replicate, but frankly outperform given the medium. I.e., only a serial killer dips their Chips Ahoy! cookies in [i]water[/i], which is what most people use for their protein shakes, and I challenge anyone to taste the [i]actual[/i] Oreo in a cookies and cream* when the crumbs are pinprick dots.
*Quest actually makes a point to put [url=https://www.questnutrition.com/products/us-1-6lb-protein-powder-cookies-and-cream][i]protein[/i] cookie pieces[/url] in their cookies and cream at least.
I'm just disappointed in Ghost sabotaging their own protein macros [i]again[/i], but this time it's apparently for something as utterly flavorless as sprinkles. I don't think I've ever seen even cake batter protein powders with real sprinkles shift the macros to such an insane degree. And the thing is that I've done an experiment with both their Chips Ahoy! and Nutter Butter protein powders where I sifted out as much of the cookie bits as humanly possible and the [i]base[/i] tastes incredible [i]without[/i] the bits.
Anyway, that's my spiel. /OCD

You really worried about 2-3g of carbs?
[QUOTE=sloop;1623834491]Anyone grab any good BF sales?[/QUOTE]
Restocked on Intra Blast & clear whey isolate from NutraBio, 25% off.
CEL/SNS extended their 30% sale, so hopped on that as well for a few tubs of Super Swole and a couple bottles of M-Test.
[QUOTE=Iluvmud;1624124471]Very tempted, just don’t know what flavor to try[/QUOTE]
Whelp nvm, just got notified that the 11th is my last day with the company. Merry Phuggin XMAS!
[QUOTE=TheFugitive;1623967201]Long time, how you doing?[/QUOTE]
Doing well man.
Gearing up in February to move back to the midwest.
Closer to family, friends, and what not.
Plus my MIL has a house that is empty. We are gonna take over the mortgage, which is less than half of what we pay in rent, and renovate the **** out it

Big fan of SNS and my 6 months worth of Cissus XT just came in today :) and I ran 2 jars of M-Test and reviewed
over at AM back in Oct. It's a decent herbal booster that gets really good feedback but it didn't blow me away and
for me I prefer Get Diesel's Diesel Test Hardcore. I was gonna pull the trigger on 2 jars of Anabolic Effect by CEL which
also gets decent feedback but then I thought I wasn't impressed in the past from other brands natural boosters from
PES, Myokeem, PerformMaxx, so I went with something that I now works for me straight TongKat. I picked up 2 jars
from Nootropic Depot 1 is the 2% extract at 200mg, and the other is the 10% extract at 100mg. Never tried TongKat
from this brand before so early next year I'll run each jar at different times and I'll post feedback.

Sorry to hear that but that's been going on a lot lately since this Covid19 hit but hopefully you'll get into
something else real quick and hopefully 2021 will be a BETTER year for everyone.:)
[QUOTE=danielmoo;1624170031]You really worried about 2-3g of carbs?[/QUOTE]
Well, I did say "/OCD." :p
But specifically for the frosted sugar cookie flavor, I'm just kind of dumbfounded by the idea of them throwing in [i]that[/i] many sprinkles because even from the pure flavor perspective, that flavor really is just "sugar, corn syrup/starch, and food wax." Sugar cookie sounded like a really interesting flavor, but it's more than just sugary vanilla,
More broadly, mix-ins just strike me as a gimmick that doesn't add enough, and sometimes is there to mask an otherwise lackluster flavor profile. You can do absolutely [i]insane[/i] things with modern flavor science that comes off like magic, so it's a weak excuse to me.
Dymatize is probably the best example here of having your cake and eating it, too, as they went with edible glitter for the bursts of color for their Fruity Pebbles Iso100, nailing the flavor, and keeping the macros solid.
More personally, however, I plain don't like the flavor of the mix-ins because I otherwise don't eat refined sugars or anything like what they sometimes load these powders with, and a large part of the appeal of these crazy flavors is retaining the taste without the spike of sugar. But again, that is a really personal, health-related issue/sensitivity (long story) that is going to be way in the minority of complaints. The closest thing to a mainstream similarity would maybe be keto, but from what I understand about keto versus what most companies market and so many popular keto products look like, I'm not quite sure some of those people are taking it seriously enough to care.
[QUOTE=eatyourspinach;1624226021]FWIW Quest cookies and creme is flavorless trash now[/QUOTE]
Thank you for the info, that's a real shame to hear.
Cookies and cream is one of those flavors that I'm always looking out for because it's so hard to nail down. My guess is because you might have people expecting totally different things off the name, be it a fully fledged oreo flavor or a cookies and cream ice cream that emphasizes that vanilla ice cream side.
Speaking for myself, I'm on the lookout for the former because vanilla ice cream is already covered by so many proteins.
As an aside, I fairly recently tried the Nutrex Isomix vanilla bean ice cream and it serves that point, knocking it out of the park when it comes to tasting like rich, vanilla bean ice cream out of the carton.
