Just ordered from these guys again, and love the place, last order:

Bag of ultra fine scottish oats (I found normal oats made me gag a lil..)
Rhodiola rosea
Horny goats weed
Multi vitamins
Spare shaker and scoop

Currently take whey shake in mornings and a hurricane shake post workout.
Not overly wanting to get massive or anything but like to maximise the effects I hopefully should get from hitting the gym 3-4 days a week.

Rhodiola Rosea :) I've been taking this religiously for years now. I've never recommended it to anyone though and I think this is the first time I've ever mentioned I take it to anyone. Mainly because the effects are difficult to explain and as it's not that cheap I could only ever see pople saying it doesn't do anything, etc. It's one of those supplements you need to discover yourself :)

Have you used it before?

I've been using the HGW for last couple of months aswell, got 100g of it just to top my spend utpo £100 for the free delivery so basically got it free. I doubt I'll ever buy it again but it does have some effect, taking 4g can be fun :D
 
Mainly ordered it as it stated that it can help against depression, fatigue and irritability... all things that I feel every now and again. This iks my first time taking it but I believe it will be worth its cost.

As for Horny goats weed, I mainly ordered this because of the name... haha. I know I need to grow up but cba :P Told me g/f what it increases etc and shes now scared lol... I'll make an insomniac of her yet ;)
 
Rhodiola rosea looks to have similar effects as ginseng, is that what you found CW?

Love how MP give the suggested use for horny goat weed as "Take 1 to 3 capsules 90 minutes before 'activity' for optimal results." :D :D

It's hard to describe what you get from Rhodiola. It doesn't have anything that you suddenly 'feel' and just saying that must make people think then why bother?

These aren't dosage directions or anything lol but you need to take it for a month, then stop taking it for couple of weeks and then start taking it and you will realize just how many ways this herb can be a good thing to take.

Definately helps with stress levels and how many ways can that affect you both mentally and physically? Pretty much every part of your life, it's possibly the biggest killer out there. If it can help with that is there a better health supplement to spend your money on? £20 for 6 months is well worth it in my book but I'll still never go out and say to anyone try this. People have funny views on what they expect from things like this, they seem to expect almost drug like effects :rolleyes:

It's a real super herb in my book and it's the only one I've never dropped at one point or another. Even when I was injured and couldn't train for a few years I dropped all supplements, except this.

or whatever floats your boat :D

Personally I'd actually rate Rhodiola better in that department aswell. Though maybe not quite as potent as 4g of HGW as that's way above the recommended dosage :D

Thanks for that mate, might do a bit more research before i add some to my next MP order. I know what you mean about the sudden feeling. I tried ALCAR for a while to improve my focus at work without taking caffeine. When i felt like i was flagging i'd have a dose of ALCAR then about an hour later i'd be aware of the fact that i was doing or had done what i could be arsed with before. There was no massive rush or buzz, just kinda realised that it must have worked.......probably!! ;)

In fact on the subject of alcar (bit off-topic), i had some in a bag at work that eventually turned all mushy and wet, really weird cos it had never been near water, when i went to check the tub i'd got in the cupboard at home (cool, dark and dry) the tub had a very strong smell of vinegar (acetic acid). I presume the ALCAR has been decomposing back to its constituents so i've not used it since. Anyone had similar experience? Might just chuck it and order again......
 
I bought some a while back. It's good but mine did the same as you just mentioned, has a very strong acidic smell and it all kind of clumped together like moisture had got to it. I threw it away and haven't bothered again.

Many of the MP forum members seem to swear by it.

I'm just ordering some stuff now from MP and I had a look at the ALCAR and it says it has a shelf life of 2 years, how long you have yours?

Can't be more than 12months :eek:
 
I don't know why you guys use the price matcher instead of just getting it from the site itself?!

I use:

http://www.sports-nutrition.net/

Add 2 unflavoured tubs of protien... then add the code "muscletalk" which makes them £22.93 delivered the same as myprotein. Plus they come in proper screw-top tubs. Rather than the paint type crappy tub that comes from myprotein. All-in1 is a sister company of Reflex.

They are also selling 2 bottles of ZMA for £10.99.. add 2 and use the code ZMA4U.
