Best Lemon Protein I have ever had!! Thank you @The Solution for the discount code !! I will post a full review when I have a bit more time (and a shake)

It's very good. XF UP Lemon Cream Pie is still GOAT but that was a different kind of protein. GHOST really did a great job on this though. Would order again if available.

It won’t last. I mean most supplement companies won’t last in general. But the relevant thing is things that bring in cash will continue to happen as long as they can. So things may be “limited edition” but if they’re the money maker they will keep getting re-released. There may be more tweaks/experimentation with each release, but supplements in general always work this way.

That’s why it’s important to find what ingredients & dosages work for you on the staple ergogens. Your favorite preWO sup won’t be getting sold as is in 10 years if it still exists. Probably not in 1 year. But caffeine will! Everything else is here for a good time, not necessarily a long time.

It's really just a marketing thing for some of the heavier advertising oriented brands. It gets people talking about it and generates hype; and it also increases pressure to 'buy now' if you want to try it.

For smaller or medium sized companies that don't have heavy marketing budgets, its definitely not cost effective. But even then, some may view any loss from it as an advertising expense.

It's also much more profitable for brands that sell a lot from their website that are getting full retail or close to it versus brands that sell predominantly to resellers.

It tends to be more about the limited edition flavors, not actual products themselves. Sometimes related to an event or holiday limited release, sometimes not. I actually don't mind it, to me there's the fun in "collecting" and trying out new flavors. I'm a bit of a supplement junkie though and that's what I choose to spend my money on. It's absolutely meant to take advantage of FOMO though.
 
If companies could stop making amazing limited edition flavors LIMITED that would be great. Sure if they don't really turn out popular or as great as expected then sure but if they end up good then they need to make them a permanent flavor/product.
 
Little more stim than I’m used to, but pretty awesome. Arrived right before I left for leg day so it was immediately added 🤘🤘 Really like the flavor as well. Invalid Link Removed
 
I believe a good limited edition protein powder that sells well and gets good reviews will make a come back!

Alpha Lion definitely has their flavors on pointe. I haven't tried one of their products that hasn't tasted decent.

That sucks. I have a quicktrip gas station less than 50 feet from my office and they stock all kinds of energy drink brands (which is a life-saver after those sleepless nights courtesy of young kids).

thats pretty awesome .. yeah i keep focusXT at my work and gas station near me does have decent stuff just no ghost ( i checked the ghost website and looks like upstate NY doesnt have any )

For energy drinks i usually will do sugar free ( redbull or monster ) but yea sometimes that craving hits and wanna treat yourself.

I think its kind of like the old McDonalds McRib approach - when they made it all the time, sales weren't as good as expected. When they made it limited time only, they sold out. I think that's the thinking with a lot of flavors.

I'll give you a great example with Focus XT. When we introduced the Candy Corn flavor, it sold great and it was a limited time only flavor. People asked us to keep making it so we ran a couple more batches and it did slow. Now, I love it and a lot of other people do too but I definitely see where companies are coming from with it. I want to add though that we didn't intentionally run out of it and we will bring it back when we can - the flavor house no longer makes that exact flavor so we're actually having to try to flavor match it.

Also, some retailers get upset if there are more than x amount of flavors bc that's more that they have to stock so that's a consideration with some brands and why some do the limited flavors as direct to consumer only.

On our end, we're a little different in that if we do a limited edition flavor and it sells good and people like it, we're glad to keep it available :)

clear bottles?? flashpoint??

They’re awfully pretty aren’t they??? It’s a topical solution purported to spot reduce subcutaneous fat. To what extent it is hard to say but since I’m prepping I feel it could be a huge asset to improving one of my weakest areas. My abdominals are very shallow and do not show well even at very low body fat. Hoping that the combination of this along with regular ab training will result in some notable improvement :)
 
Received two bottles of “Helios Plus” to test out for Apex. Pretty pumped to try this out. I’ll be logging for anyone interested in following.

Hello all! As some of you are aware, Apex has a thread going on in their sub forum where they’re asking the group for suggestions regarding supplement ideas. I suggested adding some things to Helios in an effort to make it a dedicated joint supp, which happened to be the same day @nostrum420 was...
