Question 8: I am currently taking 2 scoops Nitro Tech and 1 scoop BSN Cell Mass mixed together post workout. Do you think this is the right balance and should I be taking more serves of one or the other during the day (training vs non training days also)
Cheers? |
(Posted: 7th May, 2008) |
Answer: Hi
the servings you are currently taking is fine, if you like to take more i would recommend to take two more serves of the Nitro-tech hard core one in the morning and one before training (30 min). due to the protein you are one is a bit expensive we recommend two servings one before and one after.
take the same on you non-training.
The cell-mass you should take just after and then 6-8 hrs later on empty stomach like you do.
And on you non-training day you take cell-mass in the morning on empty stomach and then 6-8 hrs later on empty stomach.
good luck!! |

(Posted: 13th May, 2008) |
Answer: Hi
Yes nitro-tech hardcore is a really good protein powder, and have helped lots of our customers to gain weight.
i would recommend to take it before and after training only due to a higher price class and serving, but that is a recommendation.
Its also OK to take it with BSN Nitrix.

I was just wondering does this help you gain weight or to lose weight?
thank you for your time? |

Its not a mass gainer, it will help with muscle development and recovery, and would not say its for weight loss, it dose not have ingredients ei bioperine, caffeine, l-carnitine etc. that are going to help with that. its just a whey protein powder that's have added ingredients for growth.

| Question 15: Can i replace no-explode and whey protein with nitro-tech and have same results with muscle tech nitro-tech hardcore only ? how much would i consume per day for best gains ? |
(Posted: 1st August, 2008) |
| Answer: You can replace you old whey protein powder with nitro-tech hardcore, but as a pre workout you will not get the same effect from the nitro-tech hardcore, no-explode is a nitric oxide based products that have added ingredients like creatine muscle enhancement ingredients, AKG, some of the free form amino's , nos etc. if you kike you can just take the nitro - tech and get really good result, but its very different to the no-Explode. DIRECTIONS USE FRO THE NITRO-TECH -HARDCORE. Add 1 to 2 servings (1 to 2 scoops) of Nitro-Tech Hardcore to 4 to 8 oz. of cold water or skim milk and mix. For maximum results, consume 2 servings of Nitro-Tech Hardcore 3 times daily for a minimum of 6 weeks. |

| Question 19: Hi i just bought naNO Vapor, Nitrotech and Anabolic Halo. I want to take the nitrotech 3 times a day so im getting maximum results, but would i be better off with a slow release protein in the morning and then use nitrotech before and after? Also are these products ok to take with Glutamine. Thanks? |
(Posted: 19th August, 2008) |
| Answer: Yes you can use Glutamine with all the other products, some costumers use a a other product like e.I. as whey or pure concentrate, and just using the nitro tech pre/post workout, this is a cost issue and its a preference of choose. |
| Back
to Top |
| Question 20: Do you know how much creatine is in this? I also have Anabolic Halo as a creatine source, should i take less than the recommended dosage of that to make sure i dont get too much? Thanks? |
(Posted: 19th August, 2008) |
| Answer: Due the anabolic Halo only have a proprietary blend of 23628 mg and I can tell you how much mg of creatine is in the product, I would recommend you to take one serve of creatine directly in the morning one before training (1,5g) and the take the halo after as a post workout supplement. |

| Question 23: How does horleys new protein blend crossfire stack up against nitro-tech and is it a good quality protein powder? |
(Posted: 19th Sept, 2008) |
| Answer: The New Horleys Crossfire is an excellent protein, however I would not put it in the same league as Nitro-Tech. Crossfire is a well balance blend of WPI, WPC and Casein (40/40/10). Nitro-Tech is WPI formaula with added free form amino acids and ingredients that enhance uptake into the muscle cell. |

| Question 24: Im currently 15 and was wondering if creatine would be a good mix with this product? will this also stunt my growth? |
(Posted: 29th Sept, 2008) |
| Answer: Creatine is fine for you to use and will not stunt your growth. To stunt your growth your growth plates needs to close and that can only occur in young people if they experience a sudden shock to their central nervous system as far as I am aware. |

| Question 25: Just want some advice on a potential stack combination to cycle. I am looking to use Nitro-Tech and nano vapor pre workout, with Cell-Tech Hardcore directly after workout followed by NitroTech Hardcore thirty minutes later. Due to costs, I use a cheaper protein powder at night. I also want to use BSN Nitirx as well. Is this a good stack or just plain overkill? Any advice and recommnedations would be great!? |
(Posted: 6th Oct, 2008) |
| Answer: I would go with the Nitro-Tech and Nano Vapor pre workout and go with the Anabolic Halo straight after the workout. That would be a good stack. The Nitirx and Cell-Tech Hardcore could be used instead of the Nano Vapor but the best results would come with the Nano Vapor. |

| Question 26: I'm 42 yrs old and have maintained a high fitness level through long distance triathlons and now have cut down on endurance training and am taking nitro-tech with powerfull tabs for some lean muscle growth, i'm currently taking 2 scoops of nitro-tech 3 times a day, morning, lunch time and post workout. as for the powerful tabs i'm taking 1 in the morning, 2 pre workout and 1 before bed. Is there anyhting that i should be adding to this? I'm 2 weeks into this and have noticed reduced body fat even though i didn't have too much to start with and also in strength levels. When should i see some weight difference? |
(Posted: 14th Oct, 2008) |
| Answer: It sounds like you may have to increase you calorie intake if you are losing body weight. Make sure you are having complex carbs at breakfast with eggs and lunch with high protein meat or chicken and more complex carbs. Then have you nitro-tech in between meals instead of with breakfast and lunch. |

Question 27: What would be a better post workout protein and why, Max's Reload or Nitro Tech. If there are any differences in the two products, could you please list them.
Also would this be ok to have twice a day if I have Optimum Gold three times a day on the side? |
(Posted: 17th Oct, 2008) |
| Answer: I would go for the Nitro-Tech as it has added creatine to the formula and little more carb which would make it better for recovery. |

Is Nitro-tech the best answer for me? If so how should i take it? |
(Posted: 21st Oct, 2008) |

Question 31: Hi, I am getting Nitro-Tech Hardcore for my next protein powder to give it a shot. Just reading over I found this warning
"Taking this product without adequate fluid may cause it to swell and block your throat or esophagus and may cause choking. Do not take this product if you have difficulty in swallowing. If you experience chest pain, vomiting, or difficulty in swallowing or breathing after taking this product, seek immediate medical attention."
How much is an "adequate amount of fluid" and have you heard of anyone suffering from this warning? |

| Question 32: Is it better to take nitro-tech with no-explode ? i need to gain more weight and i think these two products will work for me, how can i stack both ? |
(Posted: 2nd Feb, 2009) |
| Answer: No-Xplode works wonders for energy and strength. I would take No-Xplode only on training days about 20-30 minutes pre training. Nitro-Tech is a great powder and can be used anytime to increase protein levels in the body. |

Question 33: I've been using Max's Hydrox Phase now and have been stoked with the results however I'm giving this product a shot to gain some extra mass before a proper fat shred.
It says to take in the morning and post workout. I work out first thing in the morning so when would you recommend taking it? Previously I would take the hydroxy phase post workout and pre bed sometimes one mid arvo too? |
(Posted: 16th April, 2009) |
| Answer: It can be taken pre and post workout. If you have not got time to take it pre workout just take it post workout then again 2.5 hours later. |

| Question 34: Any idea how long before recreate is back in stock? |
(Posted: 22nd Oct, 2009) |
Answer: Hi Adrian,
USP Labs are currently going through the licensing process with all of their products, so we don't have an exact eta sorry. Hopefully it will be within the next two months but we can't say for sure.
If you are looking for another thermogenic, our most popular sellers are Thermalene Extreme by Syn-Tec, PyrogenX by Horleys or Hydroxycut Hardcore.
Thanks |

| Question 35: Can hydroxycut max be used with fat stop capsules? |
(Posted: 28th Oct, 2009) |
Answer: HI - it can but you are probably just wasting your money as they are both designed to do the same thing. Which in turn doesnt mean you will those "more". If you are wanting to lose body fat and already have the fat stop we would recommend stacking the D-toxilean or Acetyl L-carnitine as thats what we all do here for a great fat loss combo.
Hope this helps... |

| Question 36: Can A-bomb,T-bomb,Leukic,Gakic, Hydrocycut be taken all together? |
(Posted: 2nd Dec, 2009) |
| Answer: Hi. It is fine for these products to be taken together. A-Bomb and Leukic are both Anabolic activators. So I wouldn’t double up on this supplement. It would be fine to take T-Bomb, A-Bomb, Gakic and Hydroxycut together. Hydroxycut is a thermogenic, so as long as your water intake is kept up it should be fine. |
