recently i ordered the BSN mass stack, 1 month supply of MM and i'm also going to be adding nitro tech to this stack because i still have about 2lbs left over from my last tub that hasnt been used.  i will be posting 1 new update every week until my cycle is through and hopefully i'll give some of you useful info.

DAY 1 + 2
Doses:
i took 3 nitrix tabs when i woke up, around noon and before dinner.  i took no xplode (2 scoops) 30 min prior to hitting the gym and i took cell mass (1 scoop) immediately after my work out and then again before i went to bed.  i also took MM about 30 min after my work out and i took nitro tech later on in the day.  throughout all this i down between 120oz and 150oz of water.  yes it makes me piss every 5 seconds seemingly but if i dont drink enough water the effects of this stack which i spent my hard earned money on, wont be as pronounced. 

Tastes:  nitrix pills are huge but they are do-able.  no xplode tastes pretty good and cell mass tastes real good(grape flavor and it tastes like grape concentrate).  nitro tech tastes like crap but im sure most of you know that already.  the best tasting however (no surprise here) is the chocolate flavored MM. 

Effects:  nitrix and no xplode gave me more intensity, focus and a little more noted strength.  the cell mass i havent noticed any difference yet though im sure i will.  the MM and nitro tech do just as you would expect...provide protein to my muscles.  so far my work outs have been pretty good, with good form, banging out all my reps and getting huge pumps that last pretty long. 

Pitfalls:  idk if this is because i have some added stress in my life cuz of school and what not but the past 2 days (since my cycle began) i have become noticeably more aggressive, more stressed out, angry at times, and just pretty bummed out.  things that usually cheer me up havent and it seems like the smallest, most insignificant things just piss me off alot (which is unlike me cuz im very laid back and mellow).  hopefully ive just been having a couple bad days and its not cuz of the supps but i'll keep you guys posted.  also, the cell mass gives me really bad cotton mouth, its because of the esterfied creatine in it.

DAY 8

ive been tryin to follow the instructions to the T, takin the nitrix everytime im sposed to, etc buttttt i havent completely, there have been 2 days so far that i missed a dose but other than that i'm good.  i dont take the noxplode on off days nor the cell mass because i think its a waste so on off days i jus take nitrix n protein and its working fine.  also i dont take the cell mass right before bed like the directions say u should because it has kept me up at night for some reason (well it is a stimulant...)

today i did chest and for the FIRST TIME EVER my chest got pumped.  my chest is one of the few muscles that i never really got a pump in but today it felt like my chest was ripping thru my shirt.

as far as gains and such go, so far so good.  im doing more weight on almost every exercise and still maintaining good form.  my pumps last alot longer, i feel stronger, and im noticing a little gain in size.  my vascularity is sick, especially when i work out, it looks like my fore arms are chiseled of stone. 

also my recovery has increased, before i used to get sore on for 3-4 days after leg day but now its down to 1-2...and also when i started this stack i weighed 165 pounds and today i weighed myself (8 days later) and i weighed 167.5 pounds....sooooo ive gained 2.5 pounds in 8 days.  now granted some of that is obviously water weight cuz i drink alot of water during the day and especially during my work out but i definately think ive gained some muscle so to be fair i'll estimate that out of the 2.5 pounds ive gained, 1 pound is muscle.


i'll keep you posted and update it again in another week.

Yeah, I have the same experience with noxplode. Killer pumps, but lotta' gas. And to all you out there, I just finished with a cycle of fizogen's blitz cycle. It's between 70 and 90 dollars a bottle. Don't bother. The only thing I noticed was a decent pump, but not as good as noxplodes. I'll probably end up on the stack you guys are doing.

the only side effects are like they said.....gas...as for me the effects arent as pronounced becauce ive been on NO products for about 3 months now and so after this time i have to try something new, and then re cycle NO in the future cuz my body is becoming used to it kinda.....but Cell Mass has some side effects, it keeps me up at night so i dont take nightly dosages anymore

Currently I am, 260 pounds and I am just trying to put on some muscle for football season, as of now I am taking 2 servings a day of CELL MASS and I was wondering if I should cycle that with something else. I was on NITRIX for 4 weeks and I did not see much improvement, so I wonder if I should give it another try with the CELL MASS. I am still not happy with the shape I am in, I still have a little too much blubber around my stomach area but I have very strong legs, should I take something else instead of NITRIX to trim me down a little.  Thanks

absolutely.....nitrix and the products in the mass stack should be used to gain mass, hence the name "mass stack"...if you are not happy with the shape you are in and want to cut down on body fat % then u are going in the wrong direction...try cutting down your caloric intake and carbs, increasing your rep range and if u want suppliments try something like Hydroxycut or something that promotes rapid fat loss, not something that promotes weight gain.


peace

What would happen if I decided to use CELL MASS and cycle it with THERMONEX, (another BSN product), would that defeat the purpose or only help it, any response will help, thanks

    The noxplode dilates your blood vessels , and most fat burners will constrict them. Cellmass was designed to work with the noxplode to deliver the creatine while you are dilated, along with the help of nitrix. So, using cellmass with a shredding compound will yield results, because an esterified creatine is better at absorbing than a monohydrate variety. But, it will not be as efficient as it would be without the rest of the mass stack. So, if it doesn't work as well as you hoped, don't be surprised. Let me know if I'm right.

As I said before, I am 260 pounds and I just want to get more muscular, I don't mind if I add some weight because I am a football player.  So as of now I am using CELL MASS, what do you suggest to use with it besides MASS STACK, thanks

DAY 16
 
the stack is going well, it is a pain in the ass though keeping up with all the dosages on time and there have been several days when i had to alter my dosages to meet my schedule but its all good.  im almost out of nitrix (bout a week left) and alot of cell mass left (cuz i only take 1 scoop a day post workout) and about 1/2 nox left....

i didnt weigh myself since last week so idk if i gained or stayed the same but i am getting stronger. in pretty much every exercise i have increased the weight a good amount and still using good form.  my pumps are real good and i get real amped up to work out.

as far as gains go, nothing too dramatic i mean this isnt ROIDS afterall.  when i started this stack my bi's were 14.5 inches and hopefully by the end theyll be over 15.........my arms have gotten a little bigger along with my chest (which is my hardest muscle to grow) and my chest is FINALLY getting pumps.....my back is a lil wider but everything else is generally the same as far as size goes.

CYCLE FINISHED

sorry guys that i havent updated in a while, i jus been really busy with prom then i went away for a week wit my friends, then graduation and then a bunch of other **** sooo yea....

here are my FINAL THOUGHTS on the BSN Mass Stack


Pro's
no xplode gives a burst of energy, stamina and a good pump

with nitrix i can feel my strength go up a little bit and the reps are slightly easier

cell mass helps increase hardness slightly

muscle milk is...well, muscle milk...its the best protein they make [my opinion], tastes great and delivers alot of protein per serving plus lean lipids

Con's
EXPENSIVE AS HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1 bottle of nitrix only lasts about 3 weeks (actually more like 19-20 days)

nitrix pills are HUGE and the servings are very annoying for me personally cuz u have to take them 3 times daily and u have to eat aroudn them (they cant be taken with food and u cant eat within like 45 min of taking them) and for those of us with lives, it is very difficult not to miss doses

noxplode tastes real acidy and just as any suppliment...your body gets used to it and it becomes less effective after about 12 weeks (applies to nitrix too)

it is mostly hype...you do get increased pumps, stamina, recovery and strength but it is nothing dramatic, or atleast significant enough to live up to the marketing ads (but no supp. does)

Nitrix Oxide increases size by increasing cellular volume...thus after taking it most of the size that you did gain goes away unless u replace it with another suppliment to keep up ur water retention (such as creatine) or atleast that is what happened to me

for a "mass stack" i did not gain that much more mass than i would have with just a good diet alone and from now on i'm limiting myself to just a healthy, protein rich diet with low fat and protein suppliments which i think will be more effective in adding size

OVERALL RATING (on a 1-10 scale)
 
7
 
gimme feed back n tell me wat u guys think
