Damnit! Also looks like they took the cheap OAKG too, woke up this morning to it not even there anymore! Looks like it got OcUK'd..

I ordered two bags of that as well, and then it was out of stock for the 250grams.

OAKG anicdotal findings so far. Taking 14g anywhere up to 1.5hrs befors bed. Recovery is improved, sleep seems more stable, and deeper, however falling asleep is no different. Also i find I am waking up pretty much bang on 7 hours sleep, although I feel nice and fresh and I can snooze, because of this I am starting to flag by 4-5 in the afternoon. Not so bad for me as I train in the mornings, however I would really love an extra hours sleep, hopefully this is just due to years of low sleep and I can get used to having more

Well OAKG is back today and BCAA 500g is down to £13.21 from £20.99.. So, get in for the people who like to train fasted

Dude I am pre-loading 500g later to cover me for the rest of the month

LiE · 10 Mar 2013 at 20:45

OAKG front loading.

The MP bcaa offer is only on unflavoured, from what I can see. Bad times.

Don't be a girl, even in plain water they're only mildly tangy

Strong coffee with a big teaspoon of coconut milk, or 1g of coconut oil.

You can also have some 5g of creatine, and 2g of beta-alanine if you also have that. 10g of Whey if you're terrified of catabolism.

the book is wrong about the 1g, its been covered by the author it should have read 1 teaspoon, or 10-15g

Has anyone else had difficulty ordering from TPW? I'm at the checkout screen and click 'place order', the screen dims slightly, then just returns to normal? Tried two different cards, a little frustrating.

No problems here, trying dropping them a support ticket.
They got back to me within 10 mins last week.

Not to worry, used my phone, must have been a browser related issue here at work.

Yeah they were dead quick to respond to my query about not being able to buy any small sample sizes this morning, less than 10 minutes which is what I like!

Tenzo · 11 Mar 2013 at 13:06

So I need to restock on whey and some creatine.

Is the general OcUK consensus to use TPW now and not Myprotein (who I used in the past) these days?

Steedie · 11 Mar 2013 at 13:09

Myprotein are absolutely fine. Nothing wrong with them. TPW are only worth trying if you fancy some funky flavours

MP are cheaper, but the customer service is bad.

I like TPW, the flavours are great. The little things are done really well too, and customer service is spot on. If you decide to go TPW use my refferal code MM354 to get 250g of free whey (to try another flavour). I'd try strawberry.
