Muscletech Bashing

[king conan]

GUYS,
I ASKED THIS A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO BUT IT STILL
AMAZES ME SO I'LL ASK AGAIN.WHY DOES EVERYONE
HATE M/T SO MUCH? SO THEY ADVERTIZE ALOT IN
MUSCLEMAG SO WHAT!!!!! DONT YOU THINK WEIDER
HAS DONE ENOUGH PIMPING OF HIS LINE OVER THE
YEARS IN HIS PUBLICATIONS.THE ACTUAL PRODUCTS
ARE FINE.WHEN CELL-TECH FIRST CAME OUT I REMEMBER I BLEW UP ON THAT STUFF.ALSO THEIR
NITRO TECH IS A (VERY GOOD)PROTIEN!!! A LITTLE
PRICEY I'LL ADMIT BUT YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR GOOD
STUFF THESE DAYS.AS FOR THE BASHING ALL I EVER
HERE IS HOW EVERYONE HATES THEM FOR THE ADS
THEY PLACE AND THE FACT THAT THEY PUSH THEIR
PRODUCT DUH!!! WOULDNT YOU?? AS FAR AS THE PRODUCTS (THEMSELVES) THEY'RE AMONGST THE
BEST QUALITY OUT THERE.NOT THE CHEAPEST.BUT
THE BEST STUFF NEVER IS.COME ON GUYS LETS CUT
THEM A LITTLE SLACK!!!!

 

[badazzwhitedude]

I have to agree with you bro. I use the Nitro-Tech powder, and Meso-tech meal replacements exclusively. I also use the Cell-Tech and Acetabolan II when I am off of a cycle. I have had good results from their stuff, and I know it is of high quality.

 

[NORMA-MAN]

no one hates them for their products bro, it just makes me sick that they state that Greg Covacs got that big by drinking 2 nitro-tech shakes a day....

 

[bigkraut]

I know you're playing around. But if you're serious, how about these Muscletech claims as reasons to hate them:

"You could add 60 pounds to your bench in 6 weeks with Nitro-tech". Yeah, I could add 60 inches to my dick with it too.

How about the Kovak's 27" arm ad. Hell they claim he has a 70" chest too. They also claimed he is the strongest man that walks the planet.

How about "Steroid like gains" from the "Muscletech stack".

Dressing ads up to look like articles, complete with cover line with page reference. This is done with the help of co-conspirators M.M.I.

I could go on and on. Pushing your product is what an add is supposed to do, but this shit is obnoxious. "Duh" indeed.

 

[The All Powerfull MC]

I agree with bigkraut, they would be alright if they wer'ent so full of shit.
As for the advertisments on greg kovacs 27 inch arms, thats bullshit too, i've seen him up close at the arnold expo, and while he IS a massive dude, his arms are no where near 27 inches.
But keep buying muscletech's stuff and youll put 60 pounds on your bench and have arms like his.

whatever.

Muscle Tech sucks

I was at the Olympia Expo, up close and personal with Kovacs and the muscletech booth. The fact that they got that bloated fat fuck to sponsor their product is enough to make anyone hate it. That dude (Kovacs) was sweating and looking like he could pass out at any moment from trying to stand there all day. Compared to the other better looking bodybuilders like Shawn Ray, Paul Dillet (Yes he is ugly bet his physique is good), and Milos Sarcev he's not even at their level. Shit, even Skip LaCour and Frank (I'm small now that I'm off the Roids) Sepe looked better. Muscle Tech Sucks!

 

[bissenmir]

famous line "million dollar budget for research". More like a million dollar budget for the user. Their stuff is not that great. Meso-tech is good but fills you up for the day (bloats). Their andros are way too weak. etc...

They ruined Musclemag w/their ads. Every article you tap into leads to the sell of Muscle Tech product(s).

There are some other products doing this but, Muscle Tech takes the cake!!!

cell-tech is their best product!

 

[ajc]

You guys are just too fucking gullable if you believe that NitroTech is that much better than any other Whey protein.

The reason everyone hates them is because they insult our (at least my) intelligence by all the stupid shit they pull. MuscleTech ads are deceptive because they try to disguise them as articles (but I can always tell immediately because of the shitty touched up photos). Then take into account that MuscleMag is OBVIOUSLY owned by the same company or is getting paid out the ass by MuscleTech so they work all kinds of crap trying to make you believe that MuscleTech's shit is so much better than everything else into their articles.

My personal favorite is these fashion/fitness models in white labcoats with buckets of Cell-Tech and NitroTech..you know the best "stack" available...or maybe it was the time they were saying that their Anotestin and some other pro-hormone would have the same exact results as Deca.

There's also been times when their protein products were tested and instead of 50 grams protein and 3 grams of sugar, it was like 30 grams of sugar and 23 grams of protein or something like that.

MuscleMag's "Uncensored" column by Greg Zulak has even been ruined because now you don't know whether to believe him or not...He seems to think MuscleTech's Anotestin is a better choice than clomid because "Real clomid is extremely expensive and hard to find."

That being said, (I could go on longer, but I will spare you the details) I have absolutely no respect for that company and the same goes for anyone ignorant enough to believe anything that MuscleTech claims.

You need to read some real studies about the difference in Nitrogen retention in 100% pure Whey protein compared to plain old BEEF. There isn't much difference.

So if you think one whey is going to be worth twice as much, you're misinformed or you just deserve to get fucked out of your money. I guarantee you that you would be much better off using twice as much Optimum 100% Whey or EAS Simply Protein for the same price that you pay for that bullshit NitroTech.

AMEN AJC!!!

You said it perfectly. I remember that post from a year ago saying how the protein powder was underdosed. Something else when down, but I can't remember.

As far as Zulak, he's a joke, and obviously getting paid by Muscle Tech.

Also, it not called Muscle Mag anymore. I think it's being called the Muscle Tech Catalog.

I gained 15 lbs in 15 minutes using the new Nitro-Tech protein bars.

If you want to try something fun, go to the MMI site and try posting a link to an informative article or post here on elitefitness.com.

They hate us so much, that they added elitefitness.com to the bad word filter, so the letters get replaced with *****

Guys, I've fugured it out! Muscletech uses its 7-page "special reports" so their writers have somewhere to put their 6th grade- level writing while they are not busy fucking up contest reports or labeling pictures of the "fitness" slut of the month in their 24-page monthly "swimsuit issues"!

By the way, why would a MUSCLE magazine have 24 pages of asses and 6 pages of Olympia coverage? The mind boggles!

 

[METHYL MIKE]

Hey bros I have personally used damn near every Muscletech product and I still dont look like Kovacs..damn genetics.. Seriously though, theyr'e products arent really backed by science and cell-tech has made me a mild hypo, which is in a way good, but still kinda shitty. Ajc is definitely right about nitrotech-beef is better and cheaper. And by the way, has anyone else noticed nitrotech contains creatine? Only a back-door back-stabbing company would lie about whats in their product-I used nitrotech be4 my show last year about 2 weeks out, thinking it was good protein and all, and I couldnt figure out why I started holding water. Muscletech can go fuck themselves-every dollar spent is a dollar wasted!!

 

[ironbarbarian]

MUSCLE-TECH SUXS THERE IS ABSOLUTETLY NO DIFERENCE BETWEEN THE CHEAPER PROTEIN OF PROTEIN FACTORY AND THOSE BUCKETS OF NITRO-SHIT, AND CELL-ASSTECH. "DUH" AND YES I AGREE THE OTHER COMPANIES ADVERTISE LIKE SHIT TOO, BUT MUSCLE-TECH DRAWS THE LINE AS WELL AS WEIDER. THEY SUX BIG TIME!!!!!

 

[The Iron Game]

George, Shit Happens. Sit back, relax and smoke a fat one

Take it as a compliment. They are so insecure about the quality of their board they have prevented a far superior board's link from showing up.

This is after all, the most controversial board on the net, so it is going to cause some controversy

 

[D.T.O]

great product...insane prices

 

[badazzwhitedude]

I still stick to my story. I don't agree with their 10 page ads, but I like their stuff.

 

[king conan]

WELL FOLKS, THIS PROVES IT, THATS WHY THIS COUNTRY AND THIS BOARD ARE ABSOLUTLEY THE VERY
BEST!!!!!!! EVERYONE IS ENTITELED TO THEIR OWN
OPINION!!!
