I've tried a few... Unfortunately I like No-Explode the best... expensive... one of the few supplements I actually find does anything for me... great energy, pumps and strength gains for me, for an otc lol.... taste is ok, it's powder... but it sucks makin' them... had more than a few lids fly off of shaker cups when 1st used it... more careful now (anyone who's used this type of product probably know what i'm talkin' about.. lol)

Ha Ha, I used to do the same until I read the label. It says "Do Not Shake". It is much easier to stir with a spoon.

I know exactly what you're talking about shaking NO in a shaker and then having the lid explode off hahahh. Good pumps from NO, good for when you are off cycle.

I use L-aragine. It is the main ingredient in most of these mixes. It is a lot cheaper way to get the job done. It is what increases your blood flow. It has even been shown effective for guys with ED.

I'm a man (see: don't read labels/instructions..... speed limit signs, etc.) j/k... tried with a spoon... takes forever, and i never seem to get it all stirred right, lumpy bottom... I still use shaker cups, but once i feel the pressure build i slowly release a bit of pressure from the lid and let it out (air pressure), re-seal lid and repeat 'till i think it's good....
worse case is when it happened in my new car... in summer... black interior... including leather... lol... i think i just swore for a couple mins b4 even attempting clean up.... lol

It does work. I get better pumps for sure. I have not tried anything else. If it does increase blood flow it will help not only with the workout but repair as well. I take a teaspoon twice a day in a shake. It is the worst thing I have ever tasted. But, peanut butter masks the taste. You can buy it in bulk. It is sold by NOW. Maybe one of the vendors here would like to start stocking it.

RagingRandy: I've tried L-arginine pills before (long time ago)... how many mgs would you say you take to notice it's effects?
4-5 grams should be enough

I use one teaspoon which is 3 grams, twice a day.
NOW makes an L-Arginine / L - Ornithine blend in a capsule. This is a very effective cell volumizer pre workout and boner amplifier (if you get those sides from NO products). Cheap and effective way of maximizing your workout pump. L- Ornithine works synergistically with the Arginine somehow. I dont remember how or why, but I remember reading that it does. Its one of those complimentary amino acid type things.....

Pure and simple I think these are a waste of money. On t-nation there was an article debunking "no" stuff. They say it simply converts into glucose that`s where your pump is comming from. And don`t give me any of that magical gh crap, because not one freakin sup and panned out to be effective in that field. Stuff like no explode and shotgun work great because of the stims and neurotransmitter enhancers packed in there.

I knew someone would have this opinion regarding NO products.

I actually thought this would have come up sooner, I have read alot of good and alot of bad, seems like you can only test things on yourself. That way, you KNOW what works. I think I may take the plundge and try some VPX shotgun or superpump 250. Cant hurt, i dont like my money very much anyways, whenever I get some, it leaves.

Shot gun gets my vote. If you go with super pump don`t use the canadian version.
