Short of randomly shaking a tub theres no easy way I don't think. That or buy a few small containers and make some batches every weekend for the week ahead.

The upside is that total weight will only be 200gx3, the downside is that I don't want to shake the tub as I'd rather have an even distribution. I know I won't die if I get 5g of Citruline malate and only 0.5g of BA and Arginine, but I'd rather not waste my money. Would this blend?

Delvis · 15 Jan 2013 at 11:45

Like I said, make up a batch in small tubs/pots. Probably will blend but you'll end up with the same issue.

^loads of carbs and fats, you're better off with mars bars than those and at least they taste good.

Tee CNP Flapjacks are pretty lame as well, nowhere near as good as myprotein's cookies (both taste and nutritional content wise). I've been struggling to get through a box for ages.

LOL. Dude - the only flapjack I'm investing in is the free sample that comes with my BP order.

And don't get me started on Pulse...

:lame:

I had a Wispa last night, however...

Cheers mate, may get a couple.

Big being the 10000ml or the one Syla5 mentioned?

Errr... when I got them they had the 6 litre, 4 litre and a smaller one, I think. 5kg of whey filled up two 6L completely and one 4L IIRC. Do they do a 10L now? That might take a whole bag.

Delvis · 15 Jan 2013 at 12:35

Yeah there is a 10l I believe, need height dimensions of the thing really

make sure it fits on my shelf!

Either way the one below should be good enough

BSD's Super Omega 3s are among the best out there with really good ratios.

BSD112 if you're interested.

Wrote your ref down, next time I order Omega 3 and ZMA it'll be from BSD.

Great price on that Xtend. Not sure I want to buy the biggest size though as I want to try the different flavours - first tub/flavour was Apple and I'm not a huge fan, too many choices!

Can anyone recommend a good nitric oxide booster? - dont really want a PWO

LiE · 15 Jan 2013 at 12:56

AAKG/L-arginine.

Review from the MyProtein website

'I bought the 10000ml tub and quite impressed with it really. Quality plastic used and doesn't feel cheap like the great price suggests! It holds 3.5kg of whey protein rather snugly with not much room left so really happy with that as that is the amount of whey I had bought. Bought another as a spare as you never know when an extra will come in handy. Definitely recommend these, 10/10'

kai do you have a massive phobia of buying raw ingredients? The fancy packaging doesn't make it work any better

You just paid a big premium for something that you can buy on MyProtein for a lot lot less

500g of AAKG on MP £25
250g of Primaforce AAKG £20

Strong...

kai · 15 Jan 2013 at 13:26

Arhhh

i should have done my research then on this. It was a quick google and an impulse buy.

But yes i have phobia of non-branded items

Azza · 15 Jan 2013 at 13:28

5kg of oats from MP om nom nom... now I'm just waiting for Yodel *cries* to deliver my dextrose from TPW.

Steedie · 15 Jan 2013 at 13:30

Not to worry, but you know for next time. Does your sponsor not do items like this?

But kai, for you, Citrulline Malate would be brilliant. Makes you vascular and pumped as fuuuuuuuuuark. Seriously, I rate it more than AAKG. Imo AAKG is a bit turd unless you take a lot, and then it becomes far too expensive, also a lot of pre-workouts/pump supplements are moving away from making AAKG a core ingredient in place of other things. But Citrulline Malate, take 3-5g of that pre-workout, you'll definitely notice it!

Primaforce do some too

But it's far cheaper on MyProtein or OneOn

They do nitric oxide tablets, but i cant use them as they contain Creatine Monohydrate as im allergic.

Thank you for advice i have noted citulline malate for next time. Never used either AAKG or Citrulline Malate. Looking forward to being a roadmap

LiE · 15 Jan 2013 at 13:41

TPW has a new whey flavour which sounds tasty - butterscotch ripple!

I'm gonna try it on my next order.

Referal code: MM354

LiE · 15 Jan 2013 at 13:47

Xtend has Citrulline Malate

Steedie · 15 Jan 2013 at 13:53

A very small dose though if I recall? 1.6g per serving, if that?
