Doug Miller hints at wanting to release a GDA as a future investment.

Maybe it's a bit random, but these news/review sites really need to read the labels/ingredients closer before summarizing/mentioning the ingredients and doses. I'm pretty sure I've seen multiple websites treat 50% Alpha-GPC as 100% Alpha GPC multiple times. For example, if a supplement says "300mg 50% Alpha-GPC" or something along those lines, the article will say "300mg Alpha-GPC" which is, IMO, misleading and incorrect. Just a heads up to anyone reading this who may write for one of these websites, or just to anyone reading them in general.

Blows my mind this product sold out
The consumers buying this are wasting $$$ like no tomorrow.

And that is why most advertising is directed at the lowest common denominator. Most consumers are dumb as hell.

Packaging is all that seems appealing to sell this, if you like shiny things or gold.

Stim Free Bang in the works

VPX Sports has unveiled a new version of its extremely popular on-the-go supplement, the Bang RTD. Instead of adding another flavor to the product’s menu the brand has put together and previewed a stimulant free Bang RTD.

There isn't shyt else in Bang to make a stim free one worthwhile....lol

Creatine, BCAA's, COQ-10
People will still buy it if they like bangs and VPX. its a clever marketing to those who already buy the drinks, and need to cycle back or off and still get the flavoring.

Those are so low it's laughable. Good thing a majority of their customer base doesn't know any better....hehe

Need to rename it; ain't no Bang.

More like Whiff lol.

I actually had though a long time ago it would be pretty nice to have a stim free version of bang (basically diet soda) the flavoring is wayyy better than coke, Mt. dew, etc but I hope the price point is lower

 

[janson_kaniaz]

Had OY One bar Birthday Cake yesterday and it was with darker orange filling (similar to Pumpkin Pie flavor) and today it was with the normal birthday cake consistency. Anyone experienced the filling mix-up before?

If you read the comments on Stack3d FB Page, they say exactly what is in bold.
$2.50-$3.00 for a flavored carbonated beverage is steep. Unless you are use to pay $7-10 for a beer at a local concert or event haha

 

[MidwestBeast]

Bang tastes great, but unless I'm getting all jacked up on caffeine, I'm not paying more than $1/can lol.

As it stands, I only purchase the 12 packs when they're on sale and seldom. Monster tastes good enough (not as good, but good enough) for under $1.50/can.

Agree 100 dude, Bangs are great, but without the stim aspect just not worth it.

am I the only person whose thinks OG Absolute zero monster and OG White Rockstar sugar free are still the best tasting?

The silver RS Pure Zero is solid. Monster Absolutely Zero tastes like Red Bull to me and I prefer the Ultra line to it.

The RS pure zero lemonade is great too. I'm a big fan of the white, orange, and purple Monster ultras as well. I go for RS when I need more of a kick. 240 mg of caffeine in RS vs. between 160-180 mg in Monster. I like the taste of Bang, but for some reason they make me nauseous

but but but the new alphamine is supposed to dominate the energy drink market lololololol

 

[ryane87]

Man, if it isn't protein bars, it's energy drinks....

If they made it carbonated, I'd probably pick some up.

 

[chedapalooza]

Heard of an interesting product coming from core extreme nutrition (news first acquired by Modern Athletic Health) Something about an ergonine type supplement that is designed to be stacked with BCAA's and/or aminos.

Their workout has peak02 so that's an interesting angle to be approaching their next product from

 

[rascal14]

Me too. No powder has ever come anywhere near as good or satisfying as a pre made drink like Sprite Zero or Monster Ultras and I really don't think it ever will.

It also doesn't hurt that these energy drinks don't really have much of anything they have to "mask" the flavor of though besides some caffeine. What else is even in there, some taurine and tiny amounts of B-Vitamins? It's a lot harder to flavor a good supplement, but I really do like the carbonation in energy drinks, and I'm someone who doesn't even really like soda, and rarely ever drinks it.

 

[MidwestBeast]

I'm with you guys. And Sprite Zero is great. Also nice to mix certain BCAA's or pre's with.

I never even thought about the part about needing to mask the various things in powdered supplements, that's a good point.

The carbonation is the main thing for me as well. The Black Cherry Xtend tastes like cough syrup to me, but everyone loves it. If it was carbonated though, I think it would taste great.

Although with NO Xplode, the carbonation didn't help any. Lol

Wicked Blue Mio + Sprite Zero = Diet Ocean Water

RedCon1 is releasing 12 flavors of Total War

RedCon1 has 12 new flavors in EXTREMELY limited runs that will release one at a time for the next year.
Today's release is Rock Candy, once they are sold out, they are gone for good.
Looks like limited time runs.

 

[carguy123]

First time I have seen Rock Candy pre flavor, if done correctly this could be really good use to love that stuff as a kid. Not to go on a whole other tangent but kinda cool to see the industry pushing out some new unique flavors. The same old Blue raz, fruit punch, watermelon was getting a bit tiresome.

 

[booneman77]

Errrmmmm am I the only person who knows that rock candy is literally just sugar? Like, colored sugar... with no flavoring...

 

[booneman77]

Ever tried it in sparkling water?

 

[carguy123]

Errrmmmm am I the only person who knows that rock candy is literally just sugar? Like, colored sugar... with no flavoring...

If memory serves it had a slight flavoring to it, but agreed it is basically crystalized sugar. Its been maybe ~20 years and alotta beers since I have had it so memory may be a bit foggy.

 

[MidwestBeast]

Clearly rock candy needs to be carbonated



But call me when they have rock lobster, instead!

 

[rtmilburn]

Like bsn stuff that made cheap shakers explode and nice shakers to have tops pop off and liquid go every? And tasted like glue and provide no benefits at all other than diarrhea

Yep dsade made this point. He was(might still be) wanting to make a energy drink like product but taste isn't gonna pleasurable is one of the issue he said

OL Killing those new labels

Re1gn preview

We know that each tub of Reign is going to weigh in at 795g which is pretty big regardless of how many servings it has. If we’re looking at the same amount as Conquer Unleashed with 20, the serving size for Reign would be a massive 40g, or even it’s the usual 30 servings it’ll be 26g.

Lastly there a few ingredients we can confirm for Olympus Labs Reign, with one of them coming with an exact dose. The features we know of are citrulline at 4g, Hydromax glycerol, pomegranate powder, Agmass branded agmatine sulfate, caffeine, and DMHA (juglans regia extract).
