Supplements the debate/discussion thread

Make sure it's standardized for minimum 3% rosavins. There's a lot of rubbish out there for a supplement that isn't cheap. Even MP were selling 0.3% Rhodiola Rosea for full price (basically useless) until it was pointed out to them, they stopped selling it. If you find some that doesn't say anything about the strength, like Hollland & Barrett... I'd avoid it.

I've seen it as high as 15% but haven't tried that yet.
 
Chong, the MP Rhodiola Rosea I have says 3%. Is that incorrect. I got it about a year ago.

When I first used it I found it very effective as a little "booster" to help wake me up and but I stopped noticing any affect so I stopped taking it. Could that be just because MP's stuff was rubbish, if this is the case where do you get yours from so I can experiment with it again?

You should cycle on and off RR, don't take it for prolonged periods. Siberian Ginseng is another very good adaptogen herb that I've used to cycle with RR. So 4 weeks RR, then 4 weeks of ginseng, 4 weeks off, etc

I know the capsules MP sold were labelled as 3% but they stopped selling them once they ran out of stock. It was the powder that was 0.3%.

I didn't rate MP's Rhodiola at all and neither did pretty much anyone I know who tried it. Lots of people used to think it was Rhodiola that was crap but once they've tried the good stuff they know better. I know Freefaller was one of the converts to the magical herb :) I've bought mine in from the USA but I know bulkpowders do a 4% flavour.

I did cycle it and I also stopped taking it for about 6 months because my powder got wet and I couldn't be bothered to buy any more. When I did it didn't have any affect. Also it was the powder form MP that says 3%. I'll buy some from bulkpowders in the new year I think to have a go at it again.

Thanks for the info ;).

I got some Craze, i find it doesn't really work for me, 2 scoops and im not really noticing much. Jack3d for me was the king, need to try another pre workout next time

Was it the genuine artical? And also how frequently do you use a Pre work out? Did you have any detox period from your jack before trying craze?

I am not a Pre workout junky, and only really used jack3d about 6 times and craze once. I found the effect I got from craze was far more consistent and much better overall for me.
 
Anyone got a recommendation for the cheapest/most reliable place to get craze? Don't really use pre workouts a great deal, however it's something that's always useful to have when needed :)

I ordered some from amazon for 32 quid just to try it out.

I don't know if its cheap or not for 32 quid.
 
You only get the fuel2013 code, you can't use any of the other codes at the same time. Makes buying whey no cheaper then there buy one get one half price :( and I only need whey lol
 
Just bought 5kg of whey from MP and it looks like I should stock up on super fish oils. Also looking at getting the Alpha men vitamins, would you guys recommend them?
 
Amazing :D got a £25 voucher for MP for Christmas, plus their 25% off, plus price matching and a lot of points I got recently, got a normal order that would have cost £64, for £20
 
MP's half price bundles are cheap as well. Just got the £25 'kick start' (i think it's called). 2.5kg Whey, creatine, some thermorubbish, trib and a load of other stuff for less than the price of 2.5kg of whey.

Crap I've already ordered them :( Oh well i'll give them a trial as the reviews seem good. I might see a better effect from these because I can't stomach fruit and veg and most exotic foods/sauces :D I'm a simple man and I eat animals ;)
