I want to make sure I understand the question correctly.
The way you phrased it - you started off by saying how long you'd been out of the supplement thing - are you familiar with M-Test?
I wasn't sure whether you were asking what was Optimize-T and what was M-Test and how they compared/contrasted to one another or if you were already familiar with M-Test and were just asking how Optimize-T compared to it.
I discussed a little earlier in the thread about how the two compared and contrasted one another.
Both are great products and can be taken individually or can be stacked together.
M-Test is a great natural testosterone booster that's been available for years and is very popular and has a ton of good feedback on it. It's under the Competitive Edge Labs brand which markets towards and is generally more well-known in the bodybuilding and fitness community.
Optimize-T was recently released and is a great natural testosterone booster and there is a lot of great feedback on the ingredients and the initial feedback on the product itself has been awesome. It is under the SNS brand. SNS has a great reputation in the bodybuilding and fitness community but we've also been working very hard to become more well-known in the general health market, especially with our Health Series products like Joint Support XT, Liver Assist XT, Stress & Anxiety Support, and Optimize-T.
So M-Test is more well-known in general because its been out longer and being under CEL is going to be mostly associated with bodybuilding and fitness; even though its great for anyone looking for a natural testosterone booster.
Optimize-T is will be popular with the bodybuilding and fitness community but will have more crossover appeal to the general health market. The label style for the SNS Health Series for example is more appealing to the general health customer that wants a feel good, libido boosting testosterone booster whereas they may view M-Test as too hardcore.
You can kind of think of it as if you walked in a nutrition store, M-Test will be on the bodybuilding side and may be in the general health section but Optimize-T should be in both and also on the Men's Health shelf.
I hope that makes sense.
Development wise, Optimize-T was very hard to design because M-Test is such a great product and available at such a great price. The goal with Optimize-T was to design a product that was also a great product that people could cycle with M-Test or stack with M-Test but that may also cater to the few people that don't like M-Test. For example, M-Test has KSM-66; KSM-66 is one of the most researched and most popular natural testosterone boosting ingredients available but some people don't like it bc it makes them tired - so Optimize-T is a great option for those people.
I plan on writing a mini article on this topic whenever I figure out how to create more hours in the day haha.
Until then, I hope the brief summary here helps
