Default johnsbod's Universal Nutrition-Storm and Shock Therapy Stack Review


I figured I would review Universal Nutrition's Storm and Shock Therapy since you can still (according to the website) receive a free sample yourself. I'd be interested to hear other opinions on these products as well.

Storm
Volumize Your Muscle Tissue For Amazing Gains

• 5000mg of unique, net generation Creatine complex
• Zero Sugar
• Zero Calories
• Pharmaceutical Grade Ingredients
• iNOXsulin-7™ Advanced Delivery System
• Supports Strength Gains
• Proven & Tested Dose

Universal Nutrition's Storm® is a scientifically designed cell volumizing formula that will help you put on quality size. Storm® uses a unique delivery technology called iNOXsulin-7™, that speeds up the absorption without the need for any unwanted glucose ingestion. Storm® makes sugar-loaded formulas a thing of the past.

Why Storm®?

It Works:
If you want to enhance your performance in the gym and add serious size onto your frame, then look no further than Storm®. We are talking about serious size, not extra fat from the sugar-loaded creatine products of the past. We use only the finest and most advanced blend of creatine including magnesium creatine chelate, which is a patented form of the molecule that has been shown to boost strength after only 2 weeks of use. This coupled with the potent blend of nitric oxide boosters and insulin potentiators that make up Storm's® delivery system makes it the most potent volumizing formula available.

It Has a Superior Delivery System:
Storm® uses a unique delivery technology called iNOXsulin-7™, that speeds up the absorption without the need for any unwanted glucose ingestion. iNOXsulin-7™ uses time released nitric oxide boosters and insulin potentiators to effectively shuttle the creatine into the muscle tissue during your “window of opportunity” that exists directly prior to and immediately after your workout. You can also expect incredible pumps from the NO boosting complex that will help increase your energy levels in the gym.

It Has 4 Forms of Creatine:
Storm® uses 4 diverse forms of creatine to form the foundation for this advanced formula that can help saturate your muscle tissue like no other. Storm® contains some of the most technologically advanced forms of creatine, including magnesium creatine chelate, dicreatine malate and tricreatine malate for superior uptake. We didn't forget creatine monohydrate, the tried and true form that has produced proven results time and time again. Introducing these four distinct forms into your system will allow for a continuous flood of creatine into your muscle tissue for sustained benefits throughout the day.


Shock Therapy
If you are looking for a pre-workout shake that will help power you up for the gym and make you feel like hitting the plates, wait no longer. The nitric oxide (NO) activators, creatine and stimulants in this formula will energize you while helping to make you look more vascular and gain size. Shock Therapy™ can actually motivate you to get into the gym and hit the weights! Unlike many of the other pre-workout NO products on the market, we include an antioxidant complex that is essential when taking nitric oxide stimulating ingredients, due to their oxidative nature on human cells. Now you can have the “perpetual pump,” the intense workout you crave, and keep your body safe from the free radicals that are produced as a side effect of the nitric oxide activation process.

Why should you choose Universal Nutrition's Shock Therapy™?
It Works:
If you want to get energized and motivated in the gym, Shock Therapy™ is for you. This formula will make for some very intense workouts that will help you put up more weight and will ultimately result in mass gains. Your body will feel pumped all day from the blood rushing to your muscle tissue delivering needed nutrients for real growth. We don't use any sugar so there is no worry about fat gains. We use the best ingredients, from creatine all the way to our antioxidant blend. You won't find another product like Shock Therapy™; it is truly unique amongst pre-workout energizers and cell volumizers.
It Has a Healthier Formula:
Since Shock Therapy™ helps your body produce more nitric oxide, you need an anti-oxidant complex to scavenge the harmful free radicals that are released as a result of the nitric oxide process. Our competitors aren't keeping your health in mind; we are.
It Has A Better Formula:
Shock Therapy™ uses R-ALA to help shuttle the creatine and nitric oxide stimulating components into circulation, whereas the competition either does not use any form of alpha lipoic acid or uses the standard ALA, which has been shown to be less effective than R-ALA. Many individuals do not like to ingest aspartame and prefer sweeteners such as sucralose. Shock Therapy™ does not use any aspartame, while some of the other popular products do.


Comments: I figured stacking these 2 products was comperable to other popular stacks people are currently using (i.e. Green Bulge/White Blood) and I wasn't sure what to expect. I took both products about 30 minutes prior to my workout per the directions and had eaten about 1.5 hours beforehand. I consumed plenty of water and carbs in the morning to maximize the effect of the product. Both mixed very well and the taste was not objectionable, not great, but that's not a major factor for me. Bottom line, it didn't do much for me at all. The exact amount of creatine and NO precursors are also not listed on the labels.

Bottom line, I have been getting better pumps taking 3g of bulk CEE prior to my workout than I did today. I was really disappointed in this product. I've taken other NO products in the past and Shock Therapy has to rank up there as one of the worst I have ever used. No noticable effects whatsoever. I didn't even check to see what the retail price was for these products because IMO they are simply not worth it. I have 1 more sample of each of these which I will try again tomorrow, but I'm expecting the same result.

Try them for yourself and post your results here! For a free sample of each, click on the links below:

It didn't do anything for me, and I've really been limiting my caffeine consumption over the past couple of months to almost none, and haven't been taking any other stimulants. Both times I consumed plenty of carbs and water as well prior (see my first post) and still nothing.
