AAKG? 21 January 2012 12:08 (permalink)
Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate Anyone ever used this product before? Does it give good pumps?
I've never really being bothered about NO products but if it can give you better, more forceful contractions, leading to better results, then that's what I'm after.

    yes you get better pumpos from it, i prefere like ala-k is works sort of like an insulin mimicer which helps with nutrition uptake and give you the pumped look longer than the few hours from NO supps, iv only uses MP ala-k, more benifits in that imo, unless you use slin then you wont need it lol
    i believe with a healthy active lifestyle and some good knowledge and aas/peps use etc that you can live a longer stronger better life.

        AAKG can be found in alot of preworkouts, general consus is 3/5g of the stuff, it appears to work in synergy to Citruline Malate;increase the pump even more.

        Its cheap enough to buy in bulk, it doesnt compare to Glycocarn (imo) for pumps/vascualrity, but its expensive stuff.

            It does give a good pump when taken on an empty tum pre workout. Where this leads to any increase gains or performance is very much up for debate.

                      muscletech NO is the best NO i have used, was a free sample :) gaspari size-on and superpump taken as a combo are sumposed to give massive/stupid pumps.
                       
                      bsn no-plode is suposed to be a let down incomparison

                        I did try NO-Explode and just got the jitters! I was having 3 scoops though and I never have caffeine in my diet so that's probably why.

                            yeh i used to take it pre meal, but because in increases nutes uptake it increased muscle volume in the prosess just like insulin does but no to slins extent, so will give you a fuller look to your physique.
                             
                            iv not used it pre wo but i cant see why you cant, if you take it pre wo and have a carb drink during training i can imagine it will cause an increased pump also ...
