What were the first ones you guys took?
My very first supplement was "Dynamic Muscle Builder" from Weider it was milk and egg protein powder.
I remember clipping an order form out of Muscle Builder and sending a check and waiting 3-4 weeks till it arrived. I rationed it like liquid gold.
Later I would gag on gym brands and GNC bought milk n egg protein powders which tasted and had the consistency of saw dust.
some of the many things I tried over the years were
Champion Nutrition
Metabolol and Muscle Nitro (my favorite BCAA's and inosine) Heavyweight gainer 900
Anabol Naturals California company which made and sold free form amino caps and powders BCAA's Gammo-O Free aminos
Supplement scams of the day various manufacturers
Smilax
Boron
Dibencozide
Chromium
Gamma-Oryzanol
Glandulars
Twinlab Brands
Liquid aminos
various different "Fuel" powder mixes can't remember all of them but anything Twin Lab sold had the name "Fuel" added to it
Met-RX
the original 2 containers you had to mix then the packets for a few years in the 90's till Connely sold the company and they changed the formula.
I mean they had some cool shit protein panckaes pizza pasta yum yum.
Went through TONS of Designer Whey protein too which was a really crappy protein...looking back
Proud to say I never touched or took even one Muscletech product in my life.
EAS
took tons of Phosphagain with that gritty creatine in it, then their gritty creatine which you expelled more than you absorbed, I fell for the HMB scam too-also thier dextrose creatine blend.
SportPharma was one of the best companies out there I loved their thermadrene and their Vanadyl Ph felt like dbol. sad to see them go.
Later on in the 90's I started palying with some Bio test products and their Androsol really worked well (topical 4-AD) actualy gave really great gains but suppressed the shit outta ya.
someone post some more to jar my old memory.
