True Protein Buzz Saw

JayC

..in the making
If anyone has tried it, just wondering your opinions on it and how it might stack up against the higher priced BSN version (NO EXPLODE). Buzz Saw seems to have everything you could need in a pre-workout drink and looks very solid but I'd like to get a few reviews before I order. Thanks...
 
Directions take 1 serving (2) scoops 20-30 minutes preworkout to charge your workout and provide the blood pumping actions of NO and creatine, with a jolt of caffeine, along with a proper ratio of carbohydrate content to push you through your workout.

This is packaged in plastic containers, each jug contains 30 servings

Hows it going Xternal, unfortunately because the mix is a trade secret we are not able to divulge the exact list of ingredients, but I can tell you that it should provide you with the average serving of each of the supplements that you would normally take separate.

Its an awesome supplement, just look at the ingredients.

Good confirmation! ...I did that's why I remarked that it looked solid. I appreciate all the feedback... thanks everyone! Sounds like a winner to me, I'll get an order in asap.

Since it sounds like you went ahead and ordered the product, I was wondering how you would compare it to NO Xplode?

That is what I currently use, but having recently begun ordering off TP, if the product is comparable I may order Buzzsaw in the future.

Just looking for a direct comparison between it and No Xplode from someone who has used both.

Seemed stronger/more potent. NO Xplode isn't bad just seems like you have to use more (weak) and it's usually more expensive. NO Xplodes flavor is next to none, but not enough to keep paying full price. Going forward, Buzz Saw would probably be a better choice.
 
I just got this stuff earlier this week. It tastes like absolute crap, it has one of the nastiest bitter tastes I've ever tasted so far. I mixed 2 scoops of it with about 2 cups of water. It seems to work very well though, just wish it wasn't so hard on the gag reflex.
 
i DON'T KNOW ABOUT BUZZSAW, BUT I HAVE BEEN USING SUPERPUMP 250 FOR ABOUT A WEEK, AND CAN'T TELL A DAMN THING. I'VE EVEN DOUBLE-DOSED IT

the powders used in it taste like crap, nothing a company can really do about it. at least you know its potent.
 
yeah, I suppose I'll try using even more water next time, maybe a tiny bit of sugar to cancel out some of the bitterness. trueprotein really is great though, I've been going to them for everything since I found out about them through this forum. Sure as hell less of a hassle than going down to the supplement store and trying to explain to some clueless hippy what you're looking for!
 
They could always load it up with Dextrose and flavoring, but I doubt you are looking for a kool-aid supplement.

Most of these powders raw taste bad. Creatine Ethyl Ester tastes like battery acid. Green tea extract tastes like vomit. Caffeine powder tastes like a mixture of every household chemical mixed into a potent powder.

Now mix all this stuff together and you don't get the best flavor to work with. BUT the TP flavors do a decent job making this stuff drinkable.

My best advice: USE MORE WATER and be happy you get a potent product

+1.

Green tea extract is without a shadow of a doubt the worst thing i have ever tasted in my life. Its instant gag reflex in a bottle. I can chew on CEE powder all day, ive built up an immunity to the taste of it, but GTE is unimaginably horrible tasting. Its one of those things you have to experience to fully appreciate, although I dont recommend it.
 
you know bsn's plant where no-xplode is made just temporarily shut down. the are having to redo their labels. tests were takin of the product showing up to 700mg of caffiene per serving. (label shows 200mg per serving)

NO SHIT!!??? Wow. That would explain why some folks get the runs or an immediate bowl movement after using it on an empty stomach.. maybe??
Like I said before, the only benefit NO-Xplode holds over buzz saw is taste.. not enough to keep using it.
 
I don't know too many people who choose one product over another based on taste.. unless the potency of the products are equal.
