Has anyone ever tried Zmass? It sounds pretty good but i wasn't sure if it was all just hype like alot of the supps out there. IP: Logged |

I do not use ZMASS per say, but I do use a zinc/magn. supplement. I will buy either Twinlab or the GNC Pro Performance brand depending where I'm at when I need it. This kind or supp. is good for individuals that train on a consistent basis, BUT DO NOT expect to put on 25lbs of muscle from taking it!! It WILL help regulate and maximize your potential gains when EVERYTHING else is in order(sleep, nutrition,training). I personally take it before bed time as minerals have a calming and relaxing effect on your body. It definatly helps me sleep more soundly. DO NOT take it with anything containing calcium(milk) as calcium inhibits the absorbtion of magnesium in your system. You'd just be wasting your money. IP: Logged |

look.. ZMASS and ZPM all that crap all it is are vitamins. give me a friekin break. all it contains is Magnesium, zink and B6. go buy a bottle of magnesium with zink in it and swallow the fucker, and have like 3 months supply for like $5. STOP BUYING THIS CRAP!!! GO BUY THE SINGLE VITAMINS AND SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!! and for all of you who haven't figured it out... i spelled it out for you, use the noggin'. IP: Logged |

<dry sarcasm> Only to the untrained eye, 007. But, in reality, it's a very special form of zinc and magnesium as aspartates. And, should the need arise, it is also a small nuclear bomb detonated by this button here. </dry sarcasm> IP: Logged |

bro do what u want, and drink a gallon of aspartame if u want too. i don't care. you want more zink absorption, take more zink. simple as that. so do what u want, and go ahead and throw your money away. IP: Logged |

What do you mean very special form ZMA? Does that mean you bought it from a gypsy? IP: Logged |

y'all didnt see the dry sarcasm tags??? the only way ZMA increases testosterone is in Zinc and Magnesium depleted people; I dont even think thats raising testosterone, closer to restoring... go take some fuckin multi-v's, and it'll all be good. IP: Logged |

I agree! Stop buying this junk. It is nothing more than simple vitamins. ZMA is such a gimmick. I believe it was originally hyped by those scmucks at Biotest. It goes to show you how stupid the public can be--will accept anything that a supplement company throws at them. The only redeeming thing in the formula is the hydroxyecdysterone but the dosage is so low that it won't do anything for you. Yeouuwwww! IP: Logged |

I take many things, but a few days after I started taking ZMASS I gained 15 pounds on my bench. Could be a coincidence, but I'll keep using until I see evidence that it is not working. IP: Logged |

I tried zmass for over a month and the only thing I got was an empty wallet. This stuff is total junk and from what I can see it is nothing more than a few minerals you can get in a multiv. IP: Logged |

HI Uk Guy, Why does everyone keeping calling ZMA a vitamin, it is not a vitamin it is a mineral. Anyway it is one of the better supplements around the other 2 being Creatine with dextrose and lipotic acid and Glutamine with Taurine. Peace Bro's ------------------ IP: Logged |
