Supplements the debate/discussion thread

Ugh. Those "wellman" radio adverts - "vitamins and supplement may help those with a nutritionally inadequate diet". How about, sort out your diet so it isn't nutritionally inadequate?!
 
Bought some supplements for BIL2B's wife from TPW and I have to say the service was good, the ratios and from what I can see the supplement sourcing and quality seems to be good. This is basically what BSD and MP should have been. I've never been a proponent of MP, just found their supplements just average in terms of quality, but since BSD seems to have gone AWOL TPW is filling that gap nicely - I will get some friends of mine who are biochemists to do some analysis on some of their supps and compare it to BSD's sometime in the new year.
 
Nice one FF. Their stuff does look good, delivery and packaging, the small things etc are done right as well.
 
The vanilla tastes pretty damn good. I have 250g of banana to try.

This looks like a good website. I think Ill order from them in the new year when my BBW stuff runs out.

That sounds very promising. If everything comes back posative would you be willing to cater some "mix your owns" for people? I mean with your knowledge i could see a few people wanting an FF special cocktail from TPW.

Maybe not individual ones, but things like FF's mass gainer, and FF's PWO etc i could see a lot of people being interested in your view on what would be good compositions.
 
Yeah I'd be happy to give it a go. It's just a ratio of bodyweight per supplement - I put it through just some basic stats formulae (anyone else here a Lean Six Sigma person??).

It also depends on what people's goals are and how people react to certain compounds etc... To be honest I REALLY like the fact that you can make your own mix - it's SO much cheaper.

The only issue with this sort of thing of course is that every scoop is different and will have different concentrations - it's down to something called granular convection and fluid dynamics. Nothing I can do about that other than giving the powder a shake before scooping - but not in a linear motion (like tapping the edge of a jar to level some salt or whatever), i.e. shaking it randomly is more effective to reach 95% confidence in maximum dispersion. However, we're getting onto really anal stuff that I worry too much about :p

Yes I'm a geek. :o
 
Possible stupid question!

But if I had to mix some oats and whey together in a separate tub how well would it mix? Would just make it easier to take a mixed box with me back home then multiple tubs for a couple of weeks.

They're powders, so theoretically fine. Also, the oats would eventually settle towards the bottom simply because they're bigger particles (going by the MP stuff, anyway).

Practically, you can mix them and you won't have a problem (as long as you get the ratios right, of course. :) ).
