Man I really wish they would make these threads a poll. It would be much easier to see overall who likes what. I would like an intra-workout supplement. It looks like PW is probably the best bang for the buck as far as servings per cost go.
But I heard you give your favorite producer
head in trade for his creative juices.

What I like about PW is that they use pure ingredients to speak for their product WITH NO caffeine. I dont use cafinated products and I hate when companys load their stuff with caffeine. If I wanted it so bad id drink coffee.
So PW will probably be the one I stick with when I do use something intra/pre. I have the 45 serving container (my first tub). I been using sample packets for ever decided to buy a tub this time around.
AE is WAY overpriced last I looked. I know you get what you pay for but why pay more for what you can get for less in other products. Over priced, no thx. This is coming from someone who will and does pay top dollar for better products. Price doesnt always mean its better in fact in most cases its not. Not that AEs stuff isnt good.

What other product, has a hydrolyzed whey that is over 70-80% di-and tripeptides? What other product has 7grams of this protein and 8grams of ffEAA(15grams of peptides/amino-acids), with 5grams of LEUCINE alone? And what product has 3.2g of beta-alanine? This is why IntrAbolic is a little more costly than some other products in the category, though it is less than some as well.

i have and i can tell you its the best
its not that expensive if you look at it. $1.80 a serving. nowadays you have drinks, sodas, energy drinks, protein bars that are atleast $4+ which are loaded with sugar most of the time. Intrabolic on the other hand has a SOLID and high quality ingredient profile.http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?p=9087539#post9087539

Thanks for the kind words, alot of people feel the same way when you look through the comparison threads. Many people want to KNOW, that they are getting the correct amount of amino-acids per serving to maximally stimulate protein synthesis, which is 10-20g, IntrAbolic has 15grams PER SERVING. People want to know the % of di-and tripeptides, which is the reason we use hydrolyzed whey in the first place and where the advantages of using it come from. IntrAbolic's custom hydrolyzed whey, is 70-80% di-and tripeptides, which is as high as I have ever seen it in this industry, it is also very pricy. Many people also want to know they are getting the researcher supported amount of LEUCINE to maximize protein synthesis, which is 3-5g per sitting, IntrAbolic has 5grams PER SERVING. One scoop per workout of IntrAbolic is all you ever need.
And many people would like to know they are getting an efficacious dose of beta-alanine, which the research shows to be 3-6g a day. IntrAbolic has 3.2g of beta-alanine. These are some key differences that people who know the science to maximally build muscle want and use IntrAbolic for. And than there are those, who just want the cheapest product and could less about the science or the efficacious nature of a product. IntrAbolic is not for those people.
BTW, have you checked out PreSurge yet?Last edited by ATHLETIC EDGE NUTRITION; 11-13-2008 at 12:34 PM.

I dont need all that protein Intra/pre workout. I get my protein an hour pre workout with whole eggs and post workout finish off with a PREMIUM protein blend in Xtreme Formulations Ultra Peptide 1.0. Sorry if you dont like what I said but your products over priced and I will not buy it yet still gain the same progress im gaining without it just fine. If you guys droped the price some maybe id start it. I take some of the best protein supplements on the market and get a lot through my diet. I dont need all that Intra workout and I avoid pre workout stimulants.
In order for me to take this id have to pretty much stack new products around it and I dont feel its that good enough to do. My favorite stack has been nailed and I dont really want to mess with what im seeing results with.
edit******
Well your prices arent as bad as I thought BUT, you guys focus more on protein it seems. You say its complete? I dont see any Lactic Acid control, no Betaine, no Citruline Malate, Cortisol control would be nice but doubt id find that in an intra workout product. Your Protein fractions are your selling point and I get more fractions in my PWO protein.
I have not tried it yet. I only have ordered the smaller tub and this one doesnt have that flavor option. Is it sweeter or more sour then the original flavor?Last edited by GAMEOVER-; 11-13-2008 at 12:47 PM.

We dosed IntrAbolic on the max protein synthesis response shown in the research, which is 10-20g. And di-and tripeptides are a completely different animal compared to intact protein, regardless of when you time them.
I actually have no problem with what you said, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I respect that.Regarding pricing, go look at the price of a similar hydrolzyed protein like peptopro to get a better idea of the much higher cost of a highly hydrolyzed protein. Regarding results, look at the comparison threads with IntrAbolic.Who we are and what we stand for as a company:http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/supplement-company-of-the-month-athletic-edge.html?searchterm=athletic

From what you are saying, you don't know what quality is and why it is worth paying for... You also don't understand the IntrAbolic formula and the science so there is not much point trying to help you...
There is not one product on this earth that matches IntrAbolic's formula and it if FAR from being overpriced... You pay for what you get in this industry and that will never change... people think they are getting a deal when in most cases the manufacturer is likely using inferior(cheaper) ingredients and quality takes a backseat... I can buy any product I want around my workouts and I'll choose IntrAbolic easily everytime... If we didn't have people supporting IntrAbolic with their purchase we would (and I) have to use all the inferior products being mentioned here... I wouldn't like that.

Just saw your EDIT. We focus on 7g of hydrolyzed protein(70-80% di/tripeptides, 8grams of ffEAA, beta-alanine and electrolytes all together, per serving. You don't want lactic acid control, you want H+ control, as lactic acid does not pose any problems, it is the H+ it dissociates, that than cause muscular pH to drop and muscular contraction and performance to decline. Beta-alanine, through boosting carnosine in the muscle, increases our buffering capacity against increased H+ release during exercise. So, yes, we have this covered extremely well. Betaine, has little to no use in a intraWO supplement and we are not fans of citrulline malate due to its almost non existent relevant research support for exercise. Cortisol will be blunted by anything that increases insulin, i.e peptides and free form amino acids. So, yes, all these products will impact cortisol.
Read these threads on lactic acid if interested- http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=2048861

I dont need you to tell me what quality is. I know what quality is. You should of read my edit. If you cant tell I like quality by XF UP 1.0 and ANs DRIVE/NeoVar recomp then I dont know what to tell you.
Excellent post. Very well said, ill give a tub a try and see what feels/shows me better results. +reps
Ill see which taste I like the better. The original almost made me sick first time I tasted it through a sample but the taste has grown on me in a way CNP Pro Peptide (yes, I know completely different products im evaluating taste) grew on me in the past. I use to dislike their Choc Malt but ended up craving it.Last edited by GAMEOVER-; 11-13-2008 at 07:23 PM.

Fair post! I realize they are nice products and ones that I would consider quality products def.
I'd encourage you to at least give IntrAbolic a worthy shot and do some reading up on the quality Whey Hydroysate which works synergistically within the formula... It is pretty neat when you get into the small details.

I have samples on the way from AE, cant wait to give it a shot. Intra supplementation is new to me. I avoid pre workout supps like the plague as most are loaded with stimulants and I have anxiety. Im also skeptical of how beneficial it really is. Intra products ive seen though, seem to be more beneficial and have more proof in my eyes. Thanks for your patience.
