Looking for ppl that take it and their exp with it....
with the help of google...Looks like NP used to carry some bulk HMB too....you see some LBM gains at 10g/day?At standard dosing, meh.
Mega-dosed with bulk powder at 10g/day is a different story, though.
I'd be pretty leery of judging supplements based off "articles" like that. Most of the time those magazines are basically one giant advertisement and you can bet they aren't saying anything too negative about the companies whose supplements line their pockets.in the 2nd of the last issue of muscluar development there's a 4 page article raving about how many benefits it provides. Ive also looked up several studies, all having good feedback. but i dont really see anyone taking the stuff, its not that popular and I wonder why......????
I did the EAS version, also. I took more than the recommended dosage and never really got anything out of it. You'd think I might get a placebo effect, b/c I really believed it was going to work, but, nothing. I find it interesting that some supplemental nutrition drinks(like Ensure, I think), are putting it in their formulation to preserve muscle. Hmmm....I haven't used it since it first came out back in the mid 90's by EAS...didn't do a whole lot for me, except make me ~$400 lighter (by the time all was said and done)...have read that Nisslen(IA state univ) never released the patent on it and the HMB that is sold now isn't the studied form...? not sure...but think I've read maybe 1-2 reviews of people liking it over the last 1-2 years & the rest not noticing anything....I did see that holman/lawson (Ironman mag) have recently added it to their supp regime...for what that's worth....
I would also second this ^^ sir....You can buy HMB, or spend 1/10 the price and get SNS Leucine
pacebo effect, no joke, but same here, nothing for me either...and I recall Phillips was also stressing that it was important that when using it, to fully get the benefits of it, to really emphasis the negative portion of the lift...I did the EAS version, also.

what....'feels like Deca', silly? Not at all....wait, brb... :friday:Tried it a long time ago and saw nothing from it. EAS was the big pusher of it back in the day, but their claims were a bit silly.
