I 1st started using atro phex about 2 years ago when I was just starting to check out supplements beyond a men's 1 a day & still buy it to this day! I'm not a huge fan of
BSN per se & I don't believe in just blindly buying everything a company puts out, so take my opinion based on that.
So first off let me start with me. I'm a hard gainer/hard loser: it takes me a while to put muscle on & a while to get rid of fat. I'm one of those people who are effected quite a bit by "drugs" in general & never took more than 3 atro phex in 1 day. At my peak I only weighed 175lbs with about 10% BF but at 5'7" that's pretty good since I started lifting only a year before at 150lbs at 18% BF. Hope this will be a good review detailing both how & why it works for me.
I found that when I took an atro phex in the morning before I left to go to the chow hall & eat that I felt it's effects within 25 minutes. Then for the next several hours during a mission I was focused, positive, outgoing & basically just all hooah-hooah. Now, I'm a very upbeat, positive person in general but this made me NOTICEABLY feel more so. Then I'd take a second pill around 1300-1500 when I was getting that dreaded afternoon nap time feeling and be good for the rest of the daylight hours as far as energy goes, including a big work out.
The army feeds you...a lot. Imagine that every time you go eat you go to a buffet. THAT'S THE MILITARY. You really gotta make good choices at every meal & believe me, it's easy to do the opposite at a buffet. Point is I ate good but not great & when you're in 130 degree weather wearing 70lbs of gear you drink a hell of a lot of water, so I know that diet along with exercise certainly helped BUT atro phex was a great addition to those things & I usually only took 2 a day on active days I had missions & worked out (which was 5 or 6 days a week). Also, I'm not a coffee/
energy drink person as I feel those things just aren't in line with my diet since they kind of make you dependent on them & they're really no good for you anyways.
Oh yeah, almost forgot...you can shop around online & find atro phex for really cheap. I just got 98 caps for $26 so that's an excellent breakdown based on daily intake/$, which is one thing I base value on, the other being how much I personally value it for what it does.
