how to convince my mom to get me NO XPLODE - BodybuildingForYou

T-rav · #1 (**permalink**) 01-04-2007, 04:58 PM

I have been looking into purchasing No-Xplode for awhile now, and i was told to wait until i've been working out for awhile. Well I went into my local GNC store with my mom today to get some protein and my mom insist me on asking about no xplode and when i should use it. Well the lady there said i should wait until i am 18 (i am 16;150lbs), and im refusing to believe that that is correct. Can someone help me here tell me if shes right or wrong

I'd appreciate this alot if someone could help me

THANKS

No I don't see why you should wait if you want it, but it's just a hyped-up energy drink really so I recommend you get some more protein instead!

this stuff is very popular amoung my football team.....i myself perfer muscle milk...i am 15 and i asked the best stuff to take for muscle/weight gain he gave me muscle milk.....i would wait until your 18 i have heard many things about stunting growth and whatnot. If you truely want it go by it yourself you dont need an adult and keep it in your gym locker thats what i do. Id look into it more. The only reason its so popular its the only one advertised

Yeah it's not bad per se, just not worth the money in my opinion. If you want a bit of extra pump go for it. If your mum lets you

Just explain what it does - vasodilation - although this bit might scare her so be careful! and extra energy etc. I used to take Ripped Fuel etc before a workout because I loved the immediate energy boost but now I just eat and warm up properly and there's not really any difference.

Yeah just to clarify muscle milk is a protein shake; NO Explode is an energy drink that gives you bigger pumps so you can't really compare the two. For building muscle the protein shake wins hands down.

If you still have to get permission from your mom to buy something then you are probably too young anyway. Surprisingly enough you don't need fancy pre-workout supps to make good gains, especially for someone new to lifting.

u guys are only 16 years old........eat, sleep, lift. If you feel its necessary, NoXplode is a great preworkout drink......but there are much cheaper alternatives out there if you are only looking for energy.

And I hope you aren't using MM as your post workout protein bro.....it is too slow of a digesting protein and you are wasting its most valuable attribute.
Get some cheap 100 percent whey and drink that after workouts. Drink MM before you go to bed to stay in ur system all nite.

No xplode is crap. Its popular because a lot of people consistently look for a miracle supplement. While NO xplode DOES give you energy, so does a big meal and the thought of blasting out a PR.

T-rav · #12 (**permalink**) 01-04-2007, 06:14 PM

i use the cheap 100% whey stuff .... lol

Just wait until you're 18 before you try No-Xplode.
It'll give you something to look forward to.

You really don't need that sh!t in your system at your age.

Sorry but muscle milk and no xplode are too very differnt things.
No xplode is a pre workout drink that basically gives you a jump in energy and pump.

Muscle milk is a protein shake and yes it is great for gaining weight.

i think that there are better things out there than NO explode if you want something pre workout...oatmeal is my fav but if u need a supp of some sort i liked shock therapy it atleast gave me energy for a week or so...No explode gave me energy for a day...overhyped IMO but i know my lifting partner likes No supps but he is also one of those guy slooking for miracle supps... just buy it if u wanna try it but its no miracle...no supp is

Your mom sounds smart. dont waste youre money on it.

I've taken V12 regular stacked with NO2 and it was pretty serious stuff when dieting right, sleeping right, and getting enough protein with a MAX-OT type lifting regime.

Super Pump was awesome, made me feel like a million bucks, but also gave me "near sh*tting in pants" runs. Not really sure why, since nothing has ever given me that kind of side effect. Horrible experience.

And I never had NO Explode, so if anyone could compare it to maybe a V12 or SuperPump that would be great. The biggest difference between V12 and the other two is the fact that there are no stimulants in V12.

i really worry about u sometimes, lol.

ZMA is usually used to help boost test (usually stacked with tribulus) and it is not needed. u can add in magnesium if u want, but ZMA itself is not really needed.

as for no-xplode, she prob told u to wait till 18 because it probably says it on the side of the label. lol. i doubt the salesperson knows how/why it works.

its a lot of caffine and NO mixture (mainly AAKG?)..u can get better things.

btw i do not mind no-xplode personally.

Your right about the salesperson. Its funny how little 99% of them know about nutrition or suppos.

Although I dont see why everyone knocks on no products so much. Its crucial to have energy and feel good when working out. Everyone knows those nights where you dont feel like lifting never turn out great.

We all know that food is the best way to achieve the energy, however what if you cant get in a meal pre workout. Or a good meal per say. Well just like protein shakes, a no product can make that difference. By no means does everyone need whey protein. You can get your protein from food. But many do take protein.

Yes 30-40$ is alot and im not saying that no-xplode is a miracle worker. But Motivation is directly related to results. And vice versa. Now from personal experience, I always see good numbers on lifts when I take a no product. Thats results and I become more motivated, and with that motivation lift more and feel better. Everyone has the time to workout, so why doesnt everyone? Motivation and accountability. If you could lift 3 weights and be huge, everyone would be huge. Motivation plays a big role.

You are 15. Don't you think the growth possibly had to do with the fact that you could eat your #2 Pencils and still grow buddy?

Maybe not, I took some NoXplode the other night, jerked off and my wanker was 2" longer. Girth was the same though, so maybe I should try CellMass for that. What do you suggest?
