I have used this product regularly for quite some time now. I have never had any side effects like I did with other products. Other fat burners always made me jittery and I hate that feeling. We are preparing to move back to the US and I ran out.. and haven't placed any more orders since we leave soon. I am struggling with keeping my weight where it was now that I'm out of atro phex. It always made me feel good and kept me from retaining water. The dosage is different for everyone. For me, all I had to take was one capsule in the morning and that was enough. I felt great and kept the weight off. I think if people are having headaches and such, it's probably due to not drinking enough water or maybe they are taking too many pills. I workout just about everyday and drink a lot of water and eat clean most of the time. Never had a problem.

I have tried other products in the past when I wanted to cut weight. The past couple of years I got lazy and didn't do the right thing and gained a lot of weight. So I decided to try A/P to kick start my metabolism again. When I first started taking it I felt great. I had super focus, tons of energy, and my appetite was controlled. I got up to 3 pills twice daily. Here are some of the side effects I had : upset stomach, when i'd burp I would have a sour taste and the big one for me was my heart rate when I did cardio. I was low to mid range cardio. When i'd start to jog after a few minutes my heart would start to race and i'd have to slow down. I was afraid if I didn't stop jogging there could be some serious reprocussions. I suggest taking lower doses and when you are about to come off your cycle to cut back on what you take otherwise the headaches are killer. I not sure if I am going to try this product again. If I do I am going to monitor myself very closely.

I believe BSN products such as Atro-Phex have truly lived up to their reputation and even further. I've been taking Atro-Phex for 15 days. Let me tell you that Atro-Phex does exactly what it was made for, focus and well being, physical energy, mental energy, and weight management. I am living proof that it does. Many say that they get headaches, nasea, sleeplessness, dehydration, trembelness, tunnel-vision, anxious, spacey and so on. Like I said I am living proof, the above named is true when you don't excercise(A LOT), eat right, and don't drink enough water(ATLEAST 120oz). I also highly recommend you read the entire label as for serious side effects can occur. Like for example: If it's your first time you don't want to start off with 2 capsules(4 a day), it WILL be too much for you. Atro-phex clearly state that you should ASSESS your tolerance. I started by taking 2(4 a day) not with water but with N.O.Explode mixed with water. DONT DO WHAT I DID. I felt like garbage the rest of the day, I was nervous,anxious,enraged with endless energy, nasaus, hot, thirsty, and lastly horny. All at the same time. Please I beg you to start with 1 pill(2 a day) with water. If you get a burst of energy, then you should use it to your advantage and excercise(Lifting Weights) till you exceed your limits, you'll feel awesome afterwards. Don't forget 120oz of water and take your last dose 6+ hours before bedtime.(It will keep you up,it's like 10x the potency of coffee). Anyways, keep taking the same dose until one day you feel like its not giving you a strong enough kick to push to and through the last rep of the last excercise, you muscles should really be burned out by the time your done, although you should till have tons of energy left. Sore and hurt but awake and alert should let you know that you used Atro-Phex to it's fullest. Anyways I'm writing this tonight at 2+ hours past my bedtime. Yes today I made the same mistake and took it with N.O.Explode at like 9pm. I went swimming for like an hour(doing laps) hit the weights hard and other X rated things that shouldn't be mentioned and well now I'm still here with 100% energy. Anyways my main point is that you should take caution when using this product and be ready and be aware of what is and/or could be in store for you. I gave this product 5 Stars because it give's you tons and endless amounts of energy more than good enough to keep you lifting, running, swimming or what ever extreme excercise you do. I dont recommend you take this and do pilates or yoga(those things can be done using your own natural energy). Anywayz, make sure your READY FOR THE CHALLENGE and have fun.

This product works. You have to cycle off for at least 4 weeks or the side effects become worse. Most importantly this product helped me quit smoking! SO if you want to get into an exercise routine and quit smoking. try it. Everyone is different so dont be discouraged if you dont immediately start shedding pounds. Be patient

I have tried all types of weight burning supplements. Hydroxycut, Rip Fuel, Lipo Six, Hot rocks, etc.. I think BSN is great, I love their products 5 Star.. But i have to say that Atro-phex is Horrible.. The side effects out weigh any benefit. Headache, Headache, Headache.. Constantly.. Nightmares and violent sleep. My girlfriend and me have been together for months and we never argue.. until I tried this product. it was a bad night and I was sleepiing horribly.. Wait for more research on this product. I believe BSN may have jumped the gun.. But, BSN is great and I have never been let down before.. If you made your mind up already and you still want to try it. FOlloW All directions and drink plenty water...

I just spent my money on this product and am so scared to try it due to the reviews. I am planning on getting pregnant in August or September and thought to buy it to work out hard for a couple months in order to get strong and healthy for my pregnancy but now I'm worried it won't clear my system in time to concieve. Does anyone know how long it takes to clear the body ?

I'll make this simple: I regularly take A/P twice a day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon My other supps are Syntha-6/MM and EFA's from animal. and assorted multiviatmins. My workout routine consists of 2 hours of cardio and 1 hour of weight lifting. 5-6 days a week. Good Stuff about atrophex (A/P) gives you energy and it does elevate your mood. If anything I feel good when taking it. It does supress appetite. Berry flavored burps. It may have helped me loose over 30 lbs. But I credit diet and excercize more than A/P Bad- Do not combine this with hydroxycut, you will loose so much water that you will cramp up. I suspect that A/P has seriously affected my lung capacity, I had a medical test (blow as hard as you can 3 times measured by a computer). Every year for the last few years I've had better lung capacity than my age group. I'm guessing if anything A/P is causing this. And no I did not have a cold that day or any congestion whatsoever. BSN has not responded to my questions about A/P's side effects on lung capacity. So until then I feel obligated to warn people about this possible side effect. In short, it works, but may have some side effects and BSN hasn't responded to my questions about it and its been a few weeks since they said they would call back.

I tried Atro-Phex for about 6 weeks while working out 6 days a week, weights only. Its true that it curbed my appetite but only because it made me so nauseous all the time that I couldn't eat properly. I also didn't get the diuretic effect at all or lose any fat. Most surprisingly it made me really sleepy in the afternoon even after taking 2 caps before lunch. I just switched to Lipo 6 and the results are way better.. though I still use BSN products for everything else.

This was one of the best products I have ever taken. I saw immediate results and in 2 weeks I have lost 13 pounds and an inch of my waist. I feel a lot more energized during workouts. I would defiantly recommend this to anyone who wants to lose weight and build muscle.





28 Feb 2009 - CARL of OKLAHOMA, USA writes:
Ive been on atro for about 2 weeks and all i can say is yes it DOES WORK. if it doesnt work for you its one of two reasons. A-your body is just immune to it or B-your just sittin on the couch thats right you actually have to go running and lifting in order for this to work i wish there was some magic pill you could take and get huge and ripped but theres not so stop bein lazy and do work.

While on this for the first week I got a mild light headed-ness that almost felt like i was stoned. Just a warning take with caution and i wouldnt recommend stacking with any other energy boosters until you've taken it for a few day-weeks. once you've established your tolerance I'd recommend taking with BSN's Endorush if you're a boxer or a martial artist. Overall very effective.

I am a 21 yr old female 5'1 and 156 lbs. I've been using this product for a week now and it helps you alot with giving you energy and using the bathroom (if you drink enough water)but b careful on how many you take, as for me I take 2 (4 a day) and I get a weird burning feeling in my stomach. Also these past days I have been getting mood swings. I really don't like that because sometimes it makes me feel sad. I will give it a couple of more days and see what happens. Overall I have lost 3-lbs and 2 1/2 in off my waist and chest together.

Keep in mind that the affects of these products can be achieved by having a few extra cups of coffee, and eating some potent fruits and you will understand that these pills are not magic, but they can help you work a bit harder on your workouts and the thermogenic effects of caffeine and caffeine-like substances have long been known. Unless you are a routinely heavy caffeine user (4+ cups of coffee per day) then I highly recommend you take only one pill about 45min prior to your workout, before noon, in any given day. Doing this not only helps your body adjust to the effects but also prevents the stimulants from keeping you up at night, etc. Additionally avoid drinking your normal coffee, or at least cut it in half. If after a few weeks they don't quite have the same punch as they used to, you can go to two pills prior, but again I recommend before noon. I personally feel that taking these multiple times throughout the day, and/or stacking with other stimulant products (nitrix, hydroxycut, etc.) is simply too much and puts the body into too high of a stress mode. The idea is to use these to just give you a boost in physical, mental, and metabolic energy. Not to overload your system into stress. All that said, these worked well for me. With a healthy low-fat diet and working out 4-5 days per week I lost about 2-3lbs per week, compared to about 1-2lbs per week without. My body adjusted to these easier then pills such as hydroxycut and zantrex e.g. the energy seems to ramp-up over the first hour and last a good 2-3 hours before slowly ramping down, as opposed to hitting you real hard and dropping you later. Since these provided real results for me, and I feel they can for others (when used wisely with a proper diet and exercise) I'm giving them four stars.

After reading all the reviews posted here I was a little apprehensive about trying this product. I've been taking it for five days now and I have had no side effects at all. I can definitely tell a difference in my energy level and have lost three pounds. I'm taking two tablets twice a day, as directed, and drinking at least 120oz of water. This is a wonderful product for people who have hit a plateau and need some extra help to stay motivated.





6 Feb 2009 - Wendy of Florida, USA writes:
This is the worst product I have tried, and I have tried a lot. I started three days ago and haven't slept since except for a few hours here or there. I do not recommend this product for anyone.

Today was my first day using Atro Phex. I'm female, 5'5" and 125. I'm looking to drop 5-10 lbs and currently am on a strict regimen diet. I work out 6 days a week and 3 out of those 6 days I am doing two-a-days. On my first day I took 1 pill 30 minutes prior to eating. About an hour after I started feeling a little jittery but nothing that made me feel weird. All day I had energy and was able to clean my entire condo. I made sure to drink plenty of water at least 80 oz before dinner at 7pm. The energy jittery feeling went away about 4pm (I took it at 9am). I worked out at 5pm-630pm and felt energized but nothing significantly different. I'm going to review again after another 3 days and then after 1 week total to report if there's any difference in muscle tone definition. So far, so good.

I used to use Redline and it worked well, but not consistently. I then found Tight Extreme. This stuff rocks the house and I still use it. Makes me out of breath like Redline during sets/reps and my clothes usually get very soaked from sweat. A friend gave me free samples of Atro-Phex last night so I tried it today. I took one pill with NO-Explode because I thought it would be weak. Dumb mistake. I started getting (1) spacey, (2) overly irritable, (3) nervous, (4)butterlflies in my gut (the first 4 happen with other products too sometimes) and I have a weird headache mostly in my temples and a weird tunnel-vision feeling. I took the product over 4-5 hours ago and I still have this spacey, anxious and headache feeling. And, I drink a lot of water all day. A lot of water. I am going to try one pill by itself tomorrow to see what I feel. I will update this later.

today is the 3rd day in a row that i'm taking AP. i really dont know if it will work or not but the thing that keeps me going is my will power i think if you have that combined with AP it should help. yep the violent dreams are common with AP.

I am currently using atro phex with my weight training routine, i stated taking the product about six months ago and wanted a product that i could use to enhance my muscle definition, not to lose weight, and as expected from BSN it worked. After having only been taking the product for about three weeks my abs had already had more definition than i had ever thought possibleand my overall mood, as claimed was uplifted, i never get tired during the day at any point and this product gives me more energy actually in the gym as well with out needing the use of nitric oxide products. I look and feel better than ever, thanks again BSN for producing another product that the mass of us will use and enjoy time and time again.

I have taken Atro-phex in Iraq multiple times and never had a problem not because Atrophex because I do my own research. First of all almost all of the negative reviews on here say they took it with Nitrix which is also a great product, and they say they were stacking. The head ache thing with Nitrix is normal if you don't double water intake. One guy says he took 3 tablets 3 times a day. BSN never said take 3 tablets together, they say 2 tablets 4 times a day. L-Arginine does that especially with a water reduce along with eye spasms. The cold shivers are supposed to happen also it is very similar to Redline. BSN is designed to help with Adrenalin, Testosterone, make you feel better when working harder than with any other supplement. If BSN products don't work for you try Muscletech but most people get far and away better results on BSN.
