lets be honest, if Muscle Tech sold every product at $20 there would be a lot less bad rep.

but they don't so hate away :D

I figured muscle tech was gonna get a bad rap when I created this thread lol... I'm more interested I guess in supplement companies that may not get a lot of recognition but put out great stuff

What about Driven Sports for under-rated. So far I've not come across one person who's not liked their Lean Xtreme and Act Xtreme formulations. Small number of products, but very solid nonetheless.

Honestly, I don't think NOW is underrated at all. Their not overrated either; but they are an incredibly common brand that I know most people on this board (and other boards) use for at least something.

Also, IMO, Avant is by far the most underrated company on AM. I mean, Napalm freaking revolutionized fat-loss as far as I'm concerned.

Im not a rep or related to the company at all but this statement is bizarre. They dont tout their products to do anymore than research has proven. Want creatine in pill or powder you got it, want a pre-workout in pill or powder you got it, want a multivitamin with joint support you got it.

No kitchen sink props

Nobody mentioned CORE Nutritionals as being way underrated ?? :dunno:


Core ZAP is above and beyond the best pre-workout supplement on the market, ever. Doug got that formula PERFECT.

It's a shame Nutra doesn't carry stock of it anymore.

Wow, man, I've been seein' a lot of bb.com folks pop up over her recently... it's interesting...
Ha! thats because Its a cesspit like I said. Every single thread degenerates quickly into abuse back and forths, wich while sometimes amusing are not cool when its just constant. All that anyone over there says is "Brah" and "You mad" Its just crap! You cant get any decent advice/opinions on AYTHING.:argue:

I have trouble understanding what RPN is selling. The site is just a forum. And apparently most of the products are just creams, sprays, soup and...shampoo?

BTW - I don't see any mention of GNC products.

Could that be because there is no need to even rate them?

I worked there over the summer and trust me when I say that their products are pure trash. A tub of their "amplified" protein costs $60 when not on sale and you'd be lucky if it lasted 3 weeks.

The thing that really gripes my ass is how they advertise their stuff. For example, they refer to their protein as Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60. The 60 meaning 60g of protein per serving.

Now, this would be impressive if they could somehow make one rounded scoop have 60g of protein in it, but the serving size is 3 scoops! Get what I'm what saying?

Nearly every type of protein you buy from whatever company has roughly 20g per scoop so I dont know where GNC is trying to go with this. They really think that we (the consumers) are stupid and wont read the label. God I hate them lol.

Contrary to "bro" belief, they are probably one of the highest ranked companies in terms over overall sales and popularity world wide ... like them or not, they are what is called a juggernaut in the industry, along with EAS and Met-rx.

These stores don't have them jammed in the window for nothing for those window watchers.
