False Advertising

[kfx450r]

I was just skimming through a Men's Fitness magazine and noticed nitro-tech hardcore..looked down a bit.. "gain up to 8.4 lbs. of lean muscle mass in just 14 days" ..Thats obviously not possible..so what gives? And if you know of any other supplements that make outrageous remarks post em up! (p.s. im assuming they put some b/s like individual results may vary?)

Exactly..so what fine print gets them out of getting sue'd for false advertisement

Im sure they dont but just asking how they get away with false advertisement..If this was true everyone would be like 30 lbs heavier from lean muscle mass in 2 months..

Supplement companies aren't patrolled as tightly by the FDA so they can get away with it more easily. I agree though, some claims are borderline ridiculous.

Rediculous..I feel bad for all the clueless teens just starting that dont do there research and waste tehre money on this stuff thinking there literally going to gain that much weight in that ammount of time of muscle.

All of those muscletech guys are on roids. Jay Cutler, David Henry, Gustavo Badell, ect. It sure as hell didn't give me 8.4 pounds of pure muscle as they say.

Nice 145x10 ..my friend did 135x10 twice and he can max about 185..so im sure you can do about that if not more....the calculator says you should max 193 lol

[BSN dude]

I did 185 as a freshman so I think I can do 200 as a Junior lol. At least I hope haha.

You should sounds about right, I couldnt max 60 bench freshmen year and I havent worked out with weights since then and I just started bodybuilding like a week ago and I can max about 120 now.

[BSN dude]

thats some good progress.

You have to remember that magazines are run by their sponsors. Even the articles are affected.

The thing is- they 'proved' it in studies like this:

Got a few individuals, deprived them of water and gave them little food for a few weeks. Then, they gave them celltech and a ton of carbs and bam- up 7lbs 'lean mass' (which is probably more like 6.5lbs water and glycogen).

Well its possible one person has gained said weight from using Nitrotech and us such they can put it there. Anyway their products WORK! I've just started using Nitrotech and my lifting gains have gone up 10 pounds instantly on things such as curls, dumbbell chest press, and rows. For all those who bash before they try, or "try" without using effort on purpose to say "Oh I used it and it didn't do what I liked." I actually can't go on because I don't want to insult anyone.

It's true...it say up to that amount. What they do is have lots of people (including pro athletes) take the supplement for a given amount of time and whoever got the best results is the one that they will use for their numbers like that. Of course it's not pure muscle, probably just lean tissue, which means muscle, water, and glycogen.

yeah that's pretty much what happens

[PumpingSteel]

their products DO work but not as much as they claim
honestly, cell tech IS a great product

7lbs in 7 days.

That's a 24, 500 caloric surplus.

Hope you got one big stomach. lol.

[yipyip]

welcome to the world of supplements and bull**** claims.

moral of the story ...stick to whole foods as much as possible.

for the rest of the teenagers dont expect to be ronnie coleman in the space of five years training..............let alone have an elite level physique to compete naturally.

Its because they put "Gain UP to 8 lbs of lean muscle mass in just 14 days"
Which means you can doesnt mean you will.
