BSN NO-Xplode

Here's the deal - nitric oxide products....do nothing useful. period. end of story.

NO, arginine, AKG....all these do is dilate blood vessels, allowing a little more blood into your muscles (and the erectile tissue in you *****). This does NOT translate to more strength, more muscle mass, more muscle...

Basically its an induced pump in the muscles. The same pump you get from actually working out with weights in a proper manner...except weight training WILL give more strength, mass, and other health benefits.


So, if you have 'soft wood' in the bedroom, NO products can be helpful before you go for Viagra. In the gym, its nothing more than a fake pump. NO Xplode has a bunch of other crap in it too, and a few useful things, but its so damned expensive you're WAY better off buying those couple supps (like pure creatine), which also gives you more dosage control.

...all this in addition to what my peers have already pointed out. Always remember that 60% of the supplement industry is just hype...no results. NO products are popular because you can see and feel the pump/hemo-dilation. But no one has proven it does ANYTHING beneficial in terms of training.

And for the record, I have tried L-arginine supplementation ,and felt the added pump. while i was at it, I chisled down a few large rocks with my wood.

Malkore- doesn't that increased blood flow to the muscles allow you to lift heavier? I was all on the NO-Xplode bandwagon until I read your posts today. I thought that because it increased the blood flow, you COULD lift heavier than you would normally. I took it for the first time today and felt a noticeable difference in how much I could lift. Wouldn't you say the heavier you can lift the better? I guess I'm confused.

If Malkore says it is bunk.

Its like E.F. Hutton: People listen.

And, I tend to agree with him on this subject matter.

(Except that he is old ;) ).

I recommend NOT wasting your money.

blood flow doesn't really have anything to do with lifting harder.

and remember, you naturally flush a lot of blood into the muscles when training in the first place.

I've seen some recent studies that indicate continued use of NO2 products could actually cause internal bleeding complications.

I'll see if I can find the link I had on it. Mreik or Evo posted it in another thread on the subject.
 
I'm a complete n00b when it comes to weight training, which is why I joined this forum. One of the main things I hoped to learn was which supplements would benefit me the most. One guy I know tells me about NOx and I've seen tremendous improvement in his muscle growth.

Malurek's (sorry if this is spelled wrong, I don't want to go back to look) argument is that it creates an initial swelling of the muscles followed by an eventual return to their natural size. But from what I read, the purpose of NOx isn't necessarily to gain you muscle but rather to give you the energy needed to gain muscle. If that's the case then there's no reason anyone should be using this to see an instant growth in muscle size. I think if someone were to use this on a fairly regularly basis, they would be able to see improvements so long as they maintained the necessary diet and workout regimen.

However, as I said before, I'm a n00b. But I do plan on buying this stuff tomorrow and going to the gym because I can't find it in me to lift weights longer than 40 minutes.
 
The most useful ingredients in NO-Xplode is the creatine, and if you need it, the caffine & taurine to amp you up.

the most useful aspect of nitric oxide, is putting more lead in your pencil, which is sure to be a hit with your lady friends (or male friends if you go that way).
 
I use it and love it, I've also read alot of reviews. It works for some people, others it has no effect what so ever.

Yeah I don't really know where you would get gains from? Show me one study where vasodilation increases muscle growth? Yeah, I didn't think so.. And I can show you a few where long term arginine decreases hGH levels.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm all for creatine and caffeine. But I could do without the $30-45 price tag, for something I can get a bigger supply for less.
 
It's helped me, my old man and a couple of mates. I wouldn't say you become hulk, but does give me more endurance to get through the workout, since taking it I have increased on my wieght lifting etc.

Yes, that is the CREATINE and CAFFINE doing that. Not the 'NO2' vasodilator.

Seriously people...read up on this stuff instead of being a mindless sheep eating every piece of bull**** hype these marketing departments are feeding you. Think!
 
It will get you to do more reps so i recommend it.
