Ok, need to vent/brag for a second...

Why are all the sponsored logs being run by people who have had no success adding size or are newer to bodybuilding? It seems the same people who are 150-170 pounds are running all the logs and not giving any real feedback through progressive training poundages ect.

I am currectly running a very in depth log and detailed workout plan as you can see in my signature. I consider myself one of the more knowledgable guys here and have been here for years and on other board for twice as long prior to that.

I honestly think companies avoid letting guys like me log their products so they can get fanboy feedback from these same few people...

Where do I go to find applications for sponsored logs???

I am spending a ton of money on stuff right now and am frustrated that all these products are being wasted and we have all these BS logs to sort through to find real feedback.

Most of those who run sponsored logs are:
a) Approached by a company rep to do so;
b) Approach a rep themselves re sampling a product, and sometimes get a full bottle to try;
c) Apply to run sponsored logs when company reps ask for applications for logging products (in the Company Promotions subsection of the Supplements Forum).

I for one, was approached by AN to run a sponsored log long before I became a rep for them, because of my attitude and knowledge and the way I approached training, etc., and because I know my body and how it responds, and give detailed, OBJECTIVE feedback. I have sponsored people because I see potential in them, and are 'helping out'; and also it's a great way to see how different people respond to different products.
 
Okay, I've perused through your logs, and yes, is detailed and informative. I think most just apply as stated in Guejsn's post.
It is always good to give new people a chance, as a cycle youknow. I mean nobody wants to see the same people logging stuff all the time.
I can understand your frustration, as supps are expensive,... but have a heart!!!
 
i agree jr, you would be great for providing constructive product feedback.
there is a shortage of quality sponsored loggers, so the companies just take the best they can get.
as rosie said, make sure you keep tabs on the 'company promotions' forum.
have to keep in mind that sponsored logs are marketing, so being a post whore is just as important.
 
This isn't even just about me its about the health of the board as a community.

I know for one that I disregard 90% of logs because the loggers just don't have enough credability in my mind. Personally I think the vast majority of products out there are crap, even ones from good companies. Yet when you go to the supplement log board, WOW, everyone is getting amazing results...ha...

Sorry to say it but if companies want to get the educated consumer then they need to prove their merrit to other educated consumers. From working in the fitness industry I know most companeis could give a **** about the picky consumers I mean why risk losing the heard when you can just placate the masses by going to the same handfull of fanboys.
 
We usually place a request for testers in a CLEARLY titled thread in the company promotion section.

Considering we just vastly reduced the price for Christmas, I think she will be getting a real "bark"gain.

Not to be a b*tch, but if you want to do a sponsored log and try some product, then why don't you be ACTIVE about it, instead of complaining about it!

"I know for one that I disregard 90% of logs because the loggers just don't have enough credability in my mind. Personally I think the vast majority of products out there are crap, even ones from good companies." Have you ever considered that this attitude is why you don't get approached by companies/reps?

PS. Logs SHOULD ALWAYS be objective. And so yes, some people might be getting amazing results (and this is true in the case of a lack of supplement history or newness to training, etc.); but there are those who do not (and yes, logs can be found showing this).
 
her fitness level isn't the best as she is now 10yrs old.
she struggles with typing, so i would probably have to relay her feedback.
but she loves treats!
 
personally i feel as though a lot of natty supplements just cant do much. besides food, i have an EXTREMELY hard time growing on any supplement other than AAS. most supplements just give me the sh!tts and theyre a waste of money (for me).

im running a sponsored Smash Fully Loaded log right and i know its not very detailed.....but its a Pre-workout NO booster...what exactly would u like to know more about?? i mean i can only give so much info. and trust me, i give my honest opinion.

as Guejsn said, be pro-active and go out and offer to do logs/test supplements, put in an app....just whatever it takes if u realllllllllly want to run a sponsored log

Well then if you relay feedback and can check all pertinant info like stool changes..lol then she in!!
 
I've run 2 in the past but honestly so few products are worth logging right now besides MST's stuff, maybe some of USP and primordials... Really just venting because its clearly biased to the same 10-15 people.
 
JR, your running like 15 things in your current log. I dont read it (i've stopped in yeah). But I highly doubt your able to isolate your gains/sides from one product to the next.

Having said that at least your at a level in which you will notice a change from the combination of products. Its certainly much better then someone with 22% bodyfat telling me some arginine blend increased their vascularity! Which has happened recently...

I'm so ashamed of myself for how much amusement I got out of that. That, and the fact that I had to bite my hand in the middle of class to keep from bursting out loud laughing.

Ha! I don't want anything else right now thats for sure... I mean after I run out of some of these things.

At the same time you can tell what does what i.e. white flood for focus/energy, cordygen for strength ect...

Sometimes I feel like everyone is taking crazy pills when I see the logs thats all.

We're actually looking for testers for our new product, "Loco".

It comes in tablet form, and is guaranteed to provide instant, mind-blowing Nano-insanity.

Interested?

does it have any 'holy grail' in it?
if so, i might be interested.
 
we are actually looking for people right now to run some sponsored logs...stop over in the company promo section and check it out. Alot of the same people run logs because they are also the only ones who apply.

Awsome... I would not be qualified right now because I am running to many things but that does answer my question about where to look. App Nut is a solid co, I LOVE rpm and will take a look at the process even if I can't do it now.

sure you can do it now. Explaining your situation to reps help quite a bit with time leniency. Thank you for the compliments to AN, it is a great company to be apart of. Their is almost always some contest going on in the company promotion section. Companies sometimes put contest up in their specific subforums as well. Good luck. Hit me up if you have any further questions.
