Extra magnesium if using synthagen?

WinskiG · Post by **WinskiG** » Mon Sep 23, 2013 1:11 pm

In the ever evolving effort to maximize supplement efficacy/cost I'm curious if there's really a need to take additional magnesium if I'm using Synthagen?

I see that MPS has a reasonable bit of mag aspartate and I follow the 3x3 and 5x3 dosing schedule but keep hearing about how mag deficiency is extremely prolific.

Any thoughts?

No need, as MPS is laced with Mg Asparate - which is a very, VERY bio-available form...

Great! Thanks, Rob. Always good to know where I can save a buck

Yeah, that's part of the beauty of MPS!

It replaces EAA's, BCAA's, NO2, glucose disposal agents, cortisol control agents etc.. It does ALL of that and more!

I even ditched my whey/supplemental protein when testing it - down to 50(1)g/day at one point - and still gained! I do NOT recommend you do that, but it does illustrate the power of the product. Big statement, but try it and see - you'll feel the truth the next day after using it!

It's a beautiful thing, Rob. Definitely makes the price point seem so much more palatable when you consider what it can replace.

A little off topic but do you run MPS in cruise also or is it best just to keep it for Feast? (never for famine I presume).

I recommend it for Feast only but once people try it, they don't want to ever come off...

.

So yes, they use it during Cruise...

If I may add my 0.02$, you could take 14-18 caps of MPS during feast peri workout and maybe before bed time and back down to anywhere between 4-9 caps during cruise around meals and again maybe before bed time. That's what I have done anyway with success (I like 3 caps before bed

)

Good advice guys, I just ordered another 2-pack so I'm pretty committed to keeping a steady supply of MPS on hand. Thanks for taking the time to help.
Too bad there's no such thing as a MPS transdermal patch. Just slap it on and enjoy a steady trickle of recovery agent goodness all day

Actually, MPS works so well because it's FAST. A patch would defeat the purpose.

Don't get me wrong, I like transdermal delivery of some items. But Synthagen's success is predicated in large part on the SPEED with which its payload is delivered.

I always have it on hand, for when I need to recover lightning quick...

Interesting. That makes a lot more sense. It isn't a casein supplement after all.

Yeah the PeakATP folks always take a beating when they study their product, to understand how to better apply it. You know what though? This one was ROCK solid.

There's a reason it's in Synthagen...
