i'm on animal pak and animal cuts, and have been since 2nd week of december. in that short time, i've gone from 204.3 lbs @ ~19%BF to 197 @~13% BF. i've noticed gains in my lifts within a few days of beginning animal pak, and the cutting power of animal cuts is nuts. even on days i don't do cardio or lift, i can feel it burning. i know my small bit of success may not seem significant, but keep in mind that this is over the holidays and my genetics suck. haha.

Changed the rules Anji... For the first ever promo, we'll make an exception. Good luck brother.
damn i have used Nitro G,the pak, cuts and thats it so far. gotta make some more dosh before i fork over for some more animal supps.
but lemme say the cuts work very well. dry you out and remove the water you dont need blurring your hard earned muscle. in a week or so i could see a difference/ a definite difference. easy to swallow nine pills go down easy.
helped me look damn good for the beach...yeah who says the sport ain't about showing off sometimes? haha
Nitro G is the best damn tasting amino product i have ever tried. and it is safe to say it promotes anabolism at the core level. the stuff makes you work harder because its like a reward. let me really do damage to my legs so then i can drink my nitro G ultra slow and just taste it repairing me.
the pak is totally there for support.
i want to give stak 2/M-stak a try.
sorry i wish i could say i had a proper stack from animal under my belt but money comes slow sometimes haha. for what i have used they have been great.
I'm currently taking Nitro, Pak, and Flex. With this stack I know three things I can be sure of:
1. Nitro has my recovery and muscle rebuilding covered.
2. Pak gives my body everything it needs to not only endure tough training, but ensures I can keep growing both in size and strength.
3. Flex protects my joints and connective tissues against the stresses put upon them during my training.
In short, my recovery, growth, strength and joints are all fully addressed and taken care of using this stack. I highly recommend it to anyone serious about there training, and the desire to be able to train for a lifetime.
Personally, I've been able to recover from a bad shoulder injury after starting up with Flex, and now I can train hard again. With Pak and Nitro, my gains and overall strength has skyrocketed. After just a few months, my big 3 (bench, deadlift and squat) are back over 1000 lbs again!!
Been sticking with the basics for a pretty long time now. For me, the base ALWAYS includes:
Animal Pak - You really can't take an every day normal man's multi when your beating yourself this hard.
Animal Flex - Unfortunately, beating yourself this hard takes it's toll - especially on bones approaching 40! (Flex has simply been my favorite new supp of the past few months).
Storm - Ok, it's not Animal, but it is Universal. It is simply the ONLY creatine product I have ever responded too. And I respond VERY well when on it, thank you very much!
Shock Therapy - How could I forget this! Yeah, it gets me going at 4am when the alarm clock is my worst enemy, and keep me hitting things hard.
Those three things make up my standard\base arsenal. I add to it from there at times, but without those, the workouts would just not be the same, nor would recovery!
Pak 'n Pump is what I'm currently running... But throw in Nitro or Nitro G and that's ideal stack. Used this a while back to bust through a plateau. In this day and age, busting through a sticking point is fucking huge for me...
Without a doubt my favorite stack is Animal Pak, Cuts and Nitro. I used this stack for cutting last year and went from 19% down to 10% over 2.5 months incorporating cuts in the last part of my cut. I've used other thermogenics in the past and always got that cracked out feeling, not with Animal Cuts. I had a good constant energy without feeling like my head was going to explode. The best thing about this was that the stack is that actually worked. You see adds out there for the latest fat burning super pill fad that gives you energy then crash, cuts was different. My next cut will be with the same stack, you'd better believe it.
First I am 44 @ 240 lbs (life and needs are different after 40). In conjunction with a good whole foods base, my supplements are nearly ALL Universal at this time.
Typical lifting day supplement breakdown:
*First thing in the AM
Whey Protein
Omega Fish Oil
Universal Liver Tabs (2)
Milk Thistle
*9:30am
Animal Pak (Staple)
*45 minutes pre-workout
Animal Stak2 (I cycle this on a very limited basis)
*30 Minutes pre-workout
Universal Shock Therapy or Animal Pump (WOW is all I can say!!)
*Driving to the gym
Animal Nitro (Cause I can!)
*Sipping from middle to end of work out
Animal Nitro G and Universal Storm (REALLY love this)
*Post workout
Whey Protein
*Couple Hours after work out
Animal Flex (A must for my age)
Universal Liver Tabs (2)
*Before Bed
Universal Liver Tabs (2)
Flax Seed Oil
Omega Fish Oil
Milk Thistle
Multivitamin
Yes I spend some $$ on Universal products, but I really like the results. I have tried a lot of the “other” companies, but always return to Universal. I am a *easy* gainer and have to really pay attention to calories, Body type and Age dictate that.

Nice....
I think it is only fair if I step back and let some of the new guys enter though. I have won my fair share of stuff from Animal/Universal. Good Luck to everyone else.

Been just over 2 weeks so far, first time i have used an animal product (besides the pak). Best supplement Ive used [PERIOD] You actually feel it everytime you have it and the effects last more that just the next hour. Recovery times have improved, (I think its because I keep my protein intake about 1g = 1lbs bodyweight). Im so impressed with the animal range I wanna try them all out! I think if you wanna get it crankin' this is the next step.
Summer of 2005.
I had started training with my Fraternity Brother, and this was my foray into serious bodybuilding, if you will. Squats, real barbell squats where I had to go below parallel, ass to the grass, as the folks at Animal say, were introduced to me by my Brother. Until then, I was squatting in the 250s for a few reps on a smith machine without going even halfway to parallel, a complete joke. Introduction to real squats humbled me, and I went down to less than 135.
He also taught me the right way of doing deadlifts, and the importance that these two exercises hold in one's trek to extreme strength and size. I was so amazed by how I felt after pulling and squatting that I started looking online for more resources on them, articles, etc. that talked about deadlifting and squatting benefits, and how the veterans of the game had been using these two lifts to their advantage, from the beginning of time.
That is when I came across AnimalPak.com, and absolutely loved the sacred treasure trove of information and motivation that I had found.(anyone who has read the articles in the Training, eating, living sections knows what I am talking about).
I was new to supplements and since Animal seemed to be so serious about their approach to training and strength and size gains, I decided to give them a try.
I ordered the Animal Owner's manual and carefully went through its contents to decide on the following stack.
Animal M Stak (cycling it every 3 weeks, as suggested)
Animal Nitro G (on workout days after training)
Animal Pak (once every day)
In addition to these, I was using protein supplements (Whey during the day and casein before bed) and liver tabs (UniLiver) too.
All this combined with serious eating (6 meals a day, everyday, with P,C,F in the right proportions) and training (basic, old school, time tested movements such as DLs, squats, dips, BTN press being the focus) gave me very good size and strength gains.
Went from weighing 161 lbs. to 195 lbs in an year. At 195, I was holding close to 16-17% fat though. After cleaning my diet some more, I came down around 10 lbs. (mostly fat) and had ultimately made significant gains that I could be proud of.
Since it was recommended to not take MStak for longer than 6months, I stopped. And as I went more towards HIT and Heavy Duty, and training frequency decreased, I slowly stopped the Protein Supplement intake as well. The one supplement that I never stopped taking was my multi - Animal Pak, and never will.
It has been more than 6 months since, and I have now started taking some protein again. If it is safe to do so, I would like to go back and try the same stack and see if I can take my training and gains to a whole new level.
Thanks,

I think you'll find you're in good company bro... Plenty of Animal loyalists here.

Hell Yeh!!!
Animal products had full filled all my necessities on this Game. I started with Animal Pak 1 year ago; the first reaction was “Damn!! This is hard to put down, this 11 pills looks like a bomb on my stomach!!!” but Bomb, the real bomb was what comes next, at the same day I felt stronger at the gym. I remember my first day with the Pak was a chest day, I didn’t add extra pounds to my Bench, but I hit my 176lbs bench 6reps without a spotter. Before that I needed a spotter to hit the 6 reps. Now a days I put the 11 pills down easily with one single strike, the Pak becomes a stable, essential to my recover and to all my digestive function.
2 months later I started with the Nitro one Pack before and one pack after the train, very easy to put down. Directly I didn’t notice Size gains or strength gains with the Nitro, what I notice was an incredible capacity of recuperation, recuperation that can be translated indirectly at strength gains and a better performance at the gym. I never step the gym again like I was been knockout the day before, Nitro get me ready to the business. Pak, Nitro, liver tabs and a protein powder was my combo stack for almost one year…
4 months ago I started with the Pump!! The Pump was the real revolution!! 9 pills to take 20 minutes before the train, 9 pills very easy to put down, 9 pills u change all my performance at the gym, I had obtain the most impressive Muscle and strength gains with a supplement usage. I added 6.6 pounds of pure muscle and lifted the weights like never before; I was in a limbo before use the pump, but pump put me in a new level, and I’m steel seeing the benefits of it…
…So this is my combo actually Pak, Nitro, Pump and the petit liver tabs.
thanks Rep
Animal pak , pump , real gains (stawberry) , nitro and flex . Since I'll be turning 41 tomorrow , this would make a hell of a birtday present . Any products produced by this outstanding company will rock your body . Did I mention that tomorrow is MY BIRTHDAY !!!!!!!!!!!!
animal pak the staple
The pak is like cement, you need it,you require it on your goal and without it everything else just does not hold together.

While in Kuwait I was stacking: PAK,STAK,TEST,CUTS, Protien and CLA in the am. CUTS,CLA,PROTIEN and Creatine in the Noon time and PAK, CLA,and MASS gainer in the PM. THis was a daily regiment and it worked like nobodies business.

My favorite stack is:
Pak, Stack 2 and Cuts
I have never seen an overall strength gain in any of my 18 years in the iron game. The physical changes were decent for a 3-week stack, however it was in the strength department that I was truly amazed. My deadlift had the greatest increased going from sets with 275 at about 8 reps to 315 at 6 reps. Needless to say I was pleasantly surprised.

Pump, flex, Pack, Nitro, Stack2, N-1T and 500 mg of Nettle Root extract and DIM at night on top of the Stack2. I cut the Stack2 out for 12 sessions, then added it and my lifts went up a lot on DC.
Later
The best gains i had was with the pak and good 'ol animalTEST too bad that went away my bench went up 45 lbs in 3 days 75lb increase after the cycle, too bad Uncle Sam got into the iron game

I keep it simple right now... Animal pak and way too much food.
Steve
Since that's what you're calling your stack, and they said you win it, does that mean if you win they'll buy you lots of food too? haha
Anyway, I don't even know where to begin, hell at one point or another in the past few years I've been on the Pak, Cuts, Nitro, Pump, and Nitro G (keep in mind I'm still 18 so I haven't looked into any of the test boosters). Last year during wrestling season I used Nitro G after every practice in addition to the usual daily Pak and let me tell you, I was cutting more weight than I had any other year (about 17-18) and after the season when I checked all my lifts I still maintained more muscle and strength than the previous seasons. Although, right now I've got Pak, Nitro, and Pump and I love what I've gotten out of this too, I'll go with this as my favorite. From the start of school in September through the first few months, I gained 16 pounds and I'm as lean as I've ever been outside of season.

I just got my feet wet into bodybuilding about 6 months ago. I went from a strong built average boy at 180lbs to a now thick and ox-like man at 210lbs. I've eaten like a hog and have gone balls to wall since I have started.
I used animal pak, animal pump, animal nitro, real gains, and storm on off days during this entire cycle. You can call it beginner gains and what not, but I know this stacked played a huge role!
Can't say enough about the badasses here at animalpak.com

I'm currently piecing together another Animal Stack, but more on that in the future.....as for Animal Stacks I love, have used and had success: Used Training Routine #10 along with the suggested Animal products: Animalpak, M-Stak and Stak2 (I added Animal Nitro, Cell Pro and Universal's Alpha Lipoic Acid 30 min prior to workout along with Stak2. Immediately after w/o Cell Pro, ALA and Animal Nitro.) Four hours after Stak2 I took M-Stak. I had my Animalpak with lunch.
In 6 weeks of following the TR #10, I dropped ~5% bf, gained 8lbs of lean body mass along with a good amount of strength on all the exercises in the routine.
Got some compliments from a few fellow gym rats on my lifts, took that opportunity to plug the Animal & Universal products I was using. Would definitely suggest this routine and supps if looking to gain good, quality size and strength. Strength and Honor.

after my hand surgeries, getting back in the game was hard....the combo that helped boost me back in quicker than anything was Mstak2, the Pak, and Cuts. the pak is a staple year round supplement that EVERYONE should have. Mstak2 helped boost my levels and get me back in to the positive gains a LOT quicker than anything else. and Cuts helped give me the energy to get through my long days and hittin it hard at night.

What's this?... some people don't use animal supps? I can't remember a day I haven't taken one Animal supp or another. If I could, I'd hook up an IV full of Animal Pump, and sit at the gym alll fucking day with Animal Pak and Nitro to help heal me up. Animal... it's like God's way of letting us cheat our way to mass gains. It ain't even fair, nuff said.
