Well, i wouldn't say you got "shortchanged" on the Primal, i'm having someone weigh the whole tub and an empty tub to find out if we're getting the entire claimed product amounts. THAT is the most important first and foremost, cuz that's what you're paying for.
Secondly comes the scooper/serving amounts mainly because as you saw with the ThermoLife Xplode Reload, we claim 42 servings....
1) it won't make people happy to finish in 35-36 days if they thought they were getting 42 days' worth even if they did consume the claimed total of the tub
2) serving sizes for products such as XR are made with x amount of ingredients for a reason, no more is needed. We had one tester who had to stop due to alot of GI tract problems. I think he may have been sensitive to one of the ingredients, having 40% more than he needed definately would make it worse. :(
With something like mono, a kilo will last approx. 200 days, i don't count the days when something lasts that long.....SO...it could be a big deal to people to not get enough, in fact, it would be a big deal to the company also, cuz if people are only getting 3g/serving or so, they won't be back to purchase another tub as soon, also may not be receiving the full benefits of the product which could lead to them not liking it enough to buy it again....
....i just think the thread should share a nice reminder/lightbulb to people to weigh out their powders once they get them to make sure they are using the supplements to optimal effect.
I saw your EAA log and would say using 3 scoops @ 250 you will notice effects, even at half of the labels' dosage. I don't think you felt placebo. EAA's pre/during/post are very effective for recovery.
The 5x5 went well....onto other things lately....ran that for about 4 months i believe. Had some great strength increases, very consistent. I'm a believer and recommend it to many. Really did help with mass as it focuses on compounds, plus, i know how to eat.
Thanx again for your advice man. You haven't led me astray yet.
