Nitric Oxide

Just bought a tub of NO-explode and was wondering if anyone else that took it, or other Nitric Oxide took 2 servins a day. It says on the label to take one 20 minutes before a workout and then 6-8hourse after, same with the cellmass. Is this what you did? and why do we need to take it when we're not working out?

I just read on the label to take 1 scoop on non training days and 2 to 3 scoops on training days.

I am only going to use it when working out, I dont see any benefit to using it when not working out. its just a waste imo. This stuff is real expensive and I need to make it last for as long as I can.

I got lucky that vitamin world had it for 50% off.


But this stuff does work for me. I feel great when the effect kicks in. I have way more energy than I did without it.

I only plan to use one tub and then take a break from it for a little while and if I feel like it, then I'll take it again.

but I honestly think it works.

I used to be stronger back in highschool and then I quit working out as hard as I did. I became real weak. i can only bench 145, dead lift 165, and squat 200.

but with the energy from noxplode my numbers went noticibly higher.

Like my DL went up from 165 last week to 195 this week. (I struggled to get lockout, but I got there.) I dont think I could go up this much this fast with out the extra boost from no. (I know Im still a weak ass POS, but I'm slowly crawling back up to respectablilty.)

next week I'll try 200+ and so forth, lifting as heavy as I can for the next month.

I also notice a mental focus. I kinda get hyped up when the effect is on, and the pump feels awesome. I start pacing up and down like a madman and have iron sharp focus.

Agree. One scoop before my workout is all I take and all I need.

Most people recommend 1 scoop per hundred lbs you weigh.

I only took 2 scoops before each workout 4x a week. I did not take it on my off days. I noticed huge improvements and big gains, but after 5 weeks, I plateaued and it didn't have the same effect. It says you don't have to cycle it, but I would recommend it.

I never tried NoXplode but I did try a while back No2 and wasn't impressed by it, not to mention the big pills tree times a day and the pumps were not bad, no gains or real strength just my veins shot out more and quicker recovery, but as of NoExplode can't say much wouldn't go back to BSN, try Legal Gear products I heard they work very well as well as Universal Nutrition

Will NO help out with recovery?

After starting mma again and going hard in the gym thanks to noxplode, I feel real sore. I have 3 days to recover, so how can I do this? Will noxplode on off days help me out?
