Night Charger


nitrovarin base formula protein/anti-catabolic complex, claims that going into catabolic rest is the best time to take protein but that normal protein shakes dont last more than a few minutes, and that night charger is a new type of protein with amino acids to last all night long. i bought it and am going to give it a try, anyone have any thoughts on this new product?

Is that stuff made by Klein Becker? It's supposed to be this night time protein forumla to aid in muscle growth and recovery.

I'd be curious to know the results as well!

Not to jump off the topic ( I have a tendouncy to do that ) but I'm curious if anyone else had tried any of the Klein-Becker stuff like Oxydrene etc . . ?

Cheers

Oxydrene is an interesting supplement. A friend of mine ordered some a couple months ago, the results are noticable but you have to take a little higher dosage than it suggests. Along with helping super saturate your muscles with oxygen helping the repair process, it allows your cells to uptake about 15% more oxygen, meaning when your doing cardio for example and your getting out of breath in theory you find you can take in a little more oxygen after your workout to cure your oxygen debt to your body (that time when your on the floor gasping for air) ..... although this is just a bonous really to the supp I dont think it was designed to do this but I'm not sure. So rather than being a supplement to pack on the pounds, (like some sites advertise it as) it helps more to promote faster recooperation and repair times...it's a good quality product and well made though just incase your interested..improvements in respiration and recovery times can be noticed within a few days....

Did you see that they banned Oxydrene from the Olympics? Crazy stuff . .


I've heard the same things as you about Oxydrene and that stuff just fly's off the shelves but the problem is that Klein-Becker stuff is really expensive, like NO2 . . .

So basically your saying it will allow you to recover faster by providing your muscles with more oxygen. Wouldn;t it be better to try to score some pure oxygen tank with a mask and breath deep for while

cheers

Actually, yes that would do you more good. Even though on Oxydrene you can uptake more oxygen into your cells, quantity never replaces quality in this sport. I know it's expensive stuff, funny how everything thats good for you is huh, I reckon they should reduce the price of steaks by 50% lol.

LOL

If I win the lottery, in the U.S. here it was 250 million last night I could have bought all the supplements I ever wanted, some really expensive good stuff.

I think pro athletes use prohormones that are insanley expensive, like in the several thousand bucks. I don't know much about them but only what the media states

I'm assuming this is similar to other products out there..like Next Proteins Glycerlean??

Here's some info on the Klein Becker product someone mentioned:

So What’s the Catch?

There are two. First, SomnaBol™-PM is not cheap. At $117 per month, SomnaBol™-PM is the most expensive amino acid complex on the market today (so if you’re not serious about really getting huge, SomnaBol™-PM is not for you). Second, although SomnaBol™-PM was created to overcome Nocturnal Post-Absorptive Muscle Catabolism by providing the necessary “slowly assimilated” proteins –– along with an exclusive mineral and herb admixture –– that makes you stronger, raises testosterone, and helps you achieve and maintain the productive, slow-wave sleep that allows your body to build muscle… there’s another catch. SomnaBol™-PM is not the greatest-tasting shake in the world. Sure, we made it chocolate, and sure, we made it relatively tasty. But we also know you’re not looking for dessert… you’re looking for harder, leaner, more massive muscles. So instead of spending time and money making SomnaBol™-PM taste better, we put our money into research and development of the most effective –– in fact, the only –– compound designed to help you overcome the biggest hurdle facing bodybuilders: Nocturnal Post-Absorptive Muscle Catabolism.

Oxygen is actually harmful they only reason our bodies have become adapted to use it is to remove charged hyrdrogen atoms from our bodies. When iron rusts and silver tarnishes that is oxygen at work, dont think it isnt doing the same things to our bodies. and when they give oxygen at hospitals they never give it in its pure form, it would destroy the lungs.

Night Charger is quite possibly the biggest crock of BS on the supplement market that I've ever seen. It costs about $99 for one container and it's basically just protein powder with long- and short-chain whey peptides (which are absorbed in a time-release fashion while sleeping). Other companies have great products on the market that will do the same thing ... and cost a helluva lot less.

Get huge,
