Reposted Let me tell you my favorite part about the old school mentality of the fitness industry. When I would go to the Olympias, or Arnold's, yes there were different booths and companies, but everyone was there for the same reason. Nobody claimed to be BETTER than anyone, and research was shared. Then something happened and some companies started cutting corners. Some cheated. Some lied. And most were caught by a much smarter educated consumer. But damage was done. People were leary to trust. So then, the opposite was done. Instead of selling undersosed garbage, a few put illegal compounds in. Then THEY were caught. And again trust lost. I am lucky to have aligned myself with great companies and true friends. If you notice... 5%, Gaspari, Mutant. They are all OLD SCHOOL companies who put formulation and integrity first. Real world legitimate companies. Others have had some issues. But the industry as a whole knows that the consumers are now educated. Through the years I have met many highly intelligent people. One is my friend ._schwartz who was with 5% for many years and due to the urging of friends who know his knowledge and determination for helping people, to start his own company .formulas. He respectfully sent me some products NOT for sponsorship or endorsement, but because hes a friend and wanted my honest opinion. And THAT is the old school industry that I love. Mutual respect. And he has hit the nail on the head. Myself and the boys tried the cream soda and orange creamsicle spiked creatine and they were absolutely delicious. The D3/K2 taste just like smarties. Making health a little treat. All of his products are DIFFERENT than the norm focusing on health and physical performance. Even the importance of transporting supplements to where they are needed. Like calcium to bones instead of arteries, etc. Luke LOVES the creamsicle and Kade LOVES the cream soda. Blake and I love both go figure. And we all love the chewables. I'll be using the other products to assist my pec tear comeback, estrogen balance, and strength and recovery. I want to thank Joe and wish him the absolute best of luck with his company that is based in scie
