feeling a lil weird!

24 Feb 2009 - rosas of Texas, USA writes:

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.

Above Average

17 Feb 2009 - AJR of Illinois, USA writes:

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.

Love It

13 Feb 2009 - Holly of South Carolina, USA writes:

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.

WARNING

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.

Energy Boost

29 Jan 2009 - Austin of Texas, USA writes:

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.

Atro-Phex

7 Jan 2009 - Ricky of California, USA writes:

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.

True Supplement Breakthrough!

9 Dec 2008 - Josh of North Carolina, USA writes:

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.

Do Your research

4 Dec 2008 - Ronald Becker of Texas, USA writes:

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.

Love It

14 Aug 2008 - Michael of New Jersey, USA writes:

I have been taking Atro -Phex for one month now and I love it. It gets me going in the morning and I don't have to stop and get coffee. I have been losing weight steadily and feel tighter. I was 5'11" AND 276lbs. I have lost 27 pounds so far and have gotten much stronger. I am avg. just under 4 pounds a week. I am also taking the full BSN Stack so I'm sure that has something to do with it. No side effects what so ever though. I take four pills twice a day and wow what a kick in the face it is...GREAT Stuff

Exactly as Advertized

30 Jul 2008 - Chris of Pennsylvania, USA writes:

Starting taking this product about two and a half months ago. At that point I was 6'1", 174 pounds with no definition. I'm now 164 pounds with an 8-pack and extreme total body definition. I've been taking 2 pills twice a day with zero side effects. From first reading reviews I was a little worried about all the side effects but I've experienced none. I try to drink around 120 oz. of water daily and eat a balanced diet as well as getting plenty of exercise. All in all I'd say if you're looking to get insanely cut, try this out!

NOT A GOOD THING TO DO!

28 Jul 2008 - Diegodiego of California, USA writes:

Not only I cant sleep at night from the heavy side effects my thoughts are not in order when using Atrophex. I came to realize that if I can't train naturally, without the help of stimulants, than my body is not properly fed and or rested, And if you are over weight take a close look at your eating habbits. you may find the answer to many questions there. Who is creating this product anyways labs? using who knows what? are the people selling it consuming it? and try calling the 1800 number and get your questions answered. I did, they just said the product is safe. who wouldn't when selling something. NOPE, Try to reconsider. No Drug manufactured by labs in any way or form is safe. but you decide! how much do you love you?

Great Results but...

7 Jul 2008 - Dylan of Arizona, USA writes:

I would first like to say that yes, if you do not follow the directions, the potency of these pills will kick you hard. I've gone through 3 boxes over the last 7 months taking breaks in between cycles and am currently taking the maximum 4 pills twice daily dosage. I'm 6'1 and in January weighed in at 241 and am now 179 lbs. I pretty much have ideal definition at this point and am just running down the last box now. I recommend it to anyone looking for reliable results but you do have to weather some strange effects if bumping up to the max dosage. If I didn't eat within 45 minutes I got extremely lightheaded, sweated, and even tingled a little, strange stuff. However, I find if I drink around 2 gallons of water a day these side effects are almost unnoticeable. Again, follow directions to the T and this product will work amazingly if you commit.

Looking for a boost

3 Jul 2008 - Leslie of Maryland, USA writes:

I bought this for the mental boost and focus. If a side effect is weight management...great! I could stand to lose about 5-8 pounds. I started yesterday and immediately felt energy. I'm hoping to have more mental clarity as I progress. I only intend to take 3 pills a day. The only thing that happened to me yesterday was the constant urination. It was nonstop! I'm a healthy eater anyway and work out daily with pilates or speed walking. Just feel my energy is not there and my mental focus is way off. I have always drank about 4-5 cups of caff. tea a day, so I'm no stranger to that rush. But it no longer gives me the punch I need. Hope this works.

Good Stuff

28 Jun 2008 - Daniel of Tennessee, USA writes:

I am about 5 10' 190lbs i used to be about 245 and dropped about 40lbs my freshman year of high school since then my diet/work out consistency has been nearly perfect, but i have always still had a little fat around my lower back and abs I have tried lipo 6, the nex lipo 6, hydroxycut, hydroxycut hardcore, and all that other stuff to get rid of these problem spots NONE WORKED about a week ago i thought i might as well waste my money on Atro-Phex to my suprise it has worked suprisingly well and i have lost about 5 plbs and am starting to see a lot more definition in my abs. Yes you will have some side effects and you loose the weight by of course....going to the bathroom, but if you eat healthy, excercise, do what the package says, and maybe even throw in a multivitamin and some extra water the side effects will be limited

Trying it out...

17 Jun 2008 - Vince of Ohio, USA writes:

I got a free sample of Atro-Phex at a [] a week ago and I figured why not try it out. I'm 5'5, 155lbs. Over the past 6 monthes, I have spent losing weight without the use of supplements, and I lost 20lbs just diet and exercise. I thought Atro-Phex could help me tone up places that are a little soft. After reading other reviews, I have decided to follow the directions to a "T", meaning eating them precisely 30-45 mins before breakfast, drink plenty of water, assess tolerance, and keep the doses minimal. I have yet to have any strange dreams that I can remember, but I'll make a point to let people know if it happens, because that is an unsettling effect. Hopefully it will help shave off some of the softness on my abdomin.

I must agree...

30 Apr 2008 - Jennie of Washington, USA writes:

After trying this product, I have also noticed having more dreams at night, and they've been extremely violent, and terribly weird as mentioned before... As far as the supplement goes, it will definately give you a headache if you're not drinking enough water, will definately make you feel sick if you font eat as directed to, 30 minutes after taking... And as for it working? I'm a 21 year old female, starting out in ok shape, 135 pounds, 5'5... I work out regularaly, and eat pretty healthy... I've been taking atro-phex for about three weeks now, and don't notice any results that wouldn't be there if I was just doing it alone... Try something else first...

Mixed

30 Apr 2008 - Thomas of Pennsylvania, USA writes:

This is my second time around using this product. I cant say that the energy is all that good, but I do notice that my soaked after a workout. I take 2 of these in the morning and 1 in the afternoon. Currently im stacked with Nitrix and Axis-HT along with 2 50g Protein shakes a day, NO-Xplode for pre-workout. I do believe this stuff works for me, but it may not work for everybody because of body type and metabolism. I come from a family with thyroid problems, im 6'0 268 and my younger brother is 5'11" 155 so you see the stark contrast. My metabolism is horrible, and I do see a difference on this stuff. My hunger decreases, and I have to force myself to eat on time to keep from killing muscle growth in the gym. I will review again at the end of June when I have gone a 60day cycle. Target is -38lbs by July 10th.

Nothing is happening

28 Apr 2008 - Traci of Colorado, USA writes:

I started using Atro Phex 3 weeks ago. I began with 1 pill twice daily to asses my tollerance for 2 days. I felt nothing so increased it to 2 pills twice a day and maintained that for 1 week. Instead of feeling hot I had the chills but no additional energy or anything. I decided to up my dose to 3 pills twice a day for a week. Still got the chills and then ended up running to the bathroom every 15min with the "runs", my energy level still has not changed and I have not lost any additional weight. Mind you I am also doing 45 min of cardio a day and eating more carefully. I have certainly not seen or felt any of the effects that BSN has bragged about. Thank goodness I can get my money back.

Follow the directions

26 Apr 2008 - K W of North Carolina, USA writes:

I just started today and I can already feel a difference. I can also see where some of the water weight has come off. The label clearly says to drink at least 120 oz. of water each day, so don't be surprised about headaches if you don't -- it's taking off water weight, and if you don't drink sufficient amounts you will become dehydrated, thus get headaches. Directions also warn of effects if the user is sensitive to caffeine/combines the product with caffeine -- yet another reason headaches could occur. I'm pleased with what I've experienced so far and I think it will work into my daily diet & exercise routine very well. I'm also excited to hear it drops pounds in days - I have a weigh in with my trainer this week!
