what flavours of http://www.myprotein.co.uk/mp-max/protein-supplements/true-whey-(5lb)/
do you guys recommend?
i have been using dymatize

the flavours have been okay, but i do like sweet tasting shakes. so would vanilla, cookies or fudge be best?

Toffee Fudge is what I just bulk ordered. Nice and sweet with milk, still good with water too.
Cookies & Cream came in a close second.
Order a few samples and make up your own mind
Doesn't need much water at all as a word of warning so don't over dilute it!Just a tip I use www.monstersupplements.com and www.cheapuksupplements.com for any branded stuff, both give free delivery, but some products are cheaper at one place than the other so do check out both. I've found for branded stuff these 2 places are cheapest.
Right its coming up to nearly 6 weeks off the creatine/pump cycle, and want to get back on it, I think I made some great gains, whether through placebo or whatever, but it worked
V-Max was great, consistent, but didnt make me go nuts as much as N.O. X-Plode which just tailed off as far as tolerance went too easy. I did prefer the first few weeks of N.O. X-Plode to V-Max though.
Am I ready for SP250?! Benny, anything to watch out for? I take these pump products at about 5pm, is this one too extreme? will I get to bed?!
although VERY VERY Tempted by the new N.O. X-Plode formula that comes in sachets.... aaah choices, why cant I just buy 5 servings of each!!!

You could give SP250 a bosh if you like!
Been quite a while since I took it now so re-read my posts for my opinion, lol
Alternatively you could buy the raw ingredients and mix it up yourself
Works out fairly expensive as you need to spend around £100 over all but then it should last quite a while depending on your dosages.SP250 is supposed to be good when taken with SIZE-ON which is Gaspari's creatine though if you've already got some bla bla bla bla lol
Ahh I'm doing what I always do, look to buy something recommended by loads of people....then bugger off and buy something else.
I'm going to try out VPX N.O. Shotgun (version 3!) to see what this product is like. It seems to get really good reviews on monstersupplements and at bodybuilding.com.
I'll get it from the below link as it clearly says V.3, however the pic and size of tub at monster suggests V.2.
http://www.cheapuksupplements.com/shop/product.php/859/no_shotgun_v_3
Again, pretty much the same ingredients as others, not expecting this to be totally different, I'm interested in the 20g of protein it seems to have in each serving though!
As for 'stacking' it like I did with Vassive-C5/VMax (same thing as size-on/sp250 stack I guess) I cant figure if that worked for me, a combination of things changed in the way I eat and workout this year, where I've seen the most gains. If I feel flush I may get VPXs corresponding Synthesize seen here, a little expensive though! (http://monstersupplements.com/store/p/3988/1/VPX-Synthesize-560g.html)
Will decide whether to stack it with a post workout creatine....

Yeah I've heard lots about shotgun and others like 'Whiteflood' and something 'Rage'.
Effectively all the same thing but will (or at least should) do the same job.
I think if you're going to do something it's probaly best to go all out and do it properly. If whatever you did worked last time then I wouldn't change it unless expenses are an issue etc.

unless expenses are an issue etc.yeah that's what I was thinking, it definitely made a difference for me. I may well get the Synthesize because of the protein in it, products like Vassive and Cellmass say take your protein 30 mins later, which I dont think is optimal.
Pssh I'll just get both. Will start the stack May 1st to help keep track of the cycle.
edit - also I know you lads dont wanna hear this, but I'm pretty sure coming off creatine gives you constipation! This time I'll run a 4 week on 2 week off cycle I think, last time I was on for 10 weeks, maybe too much. Is a 4 week cycle for creatine too short?
GRRRRrr and dont you just hate how much more US supplements cost over here? e.g. ON Whey is known for value for money in the US, over here..... £43 for 5lb please!

Thing about SP250 is that you can't eat anything for like 45-30 minutes before taking it. Doesn't matter so much with V-max and products with Taurine (I think).
Not sure about the creatine cycle. I loaded for 5-6 days in the middle of march and will be coming off at the end of this month/the end of my training cycle of that week. Will then have a week or 2 off and then back on.
Want to leave long enough for any water retention to fade but also to see if I notice a drop in strength/size.
