This is mainly for the Canadian Animals. Where the hell do you guys get your Animal products? I am outside of Toronto and it is damn near impossible to found anything! Thanks.

I ordered 2 cans each of Pak, Cuts and Stack 2 from the same place Willy suggested. I received my order in 2 days. Hoping to see good results after 2 cycles. Eating "clean" is my only real hurdle. (Yes I know this post is a little old, but I just got here)

It's hard to get Animal supp in canada. Fucking hard. For me at least.

My order from bb.com (Flex and pump) got struck at the cutoms, and took 14 days.

supplementscanada.com took 5 days, and it's nice, but sometimes animal supp can be sold out for 1-2 weeks.

Plus, neither of those have Torrent or will have "project M". So, they don't have the new supps.

It's fucking hard to get the new supps.

Jeff the Repper
04-01-07, 7:38 pm
check out supplementscanada.com on the www. Pump will run you about $52.99 Cdn and they have a few locations out your way or they will ship for free if you spend over $100.00 ( not hard up here )

This makes the most sense, buy in Canada and prevent the risk of having it shipped back and losing your money. Not only that, border crossing with non-approved products can red flag Universal/ANIMAL in Canada and we don't want that.

Whats the deal with M stack can I get it in Canada will the boreder let it threw if i ordered it? I'm in Vancouver BC

mark_b
05-26-07, 2:05 pm
Hey, bro, a fellow Vancouver animal. Haha, cool!

To answer your question, you can get MStak all over the place here. I have been buying at Popeye's Supplements here in Kitsilano (Broadway and Vine, next to the Regal Beagle). Not too bad of a price, $59.99 before tax, and the guys are a wealth of info in there.

I haven't bought off the 'net so I'm not sure about the border, but you can still get all the animal stuff off of supplementscanada.com

Finally, there's a brother on here who's located in Alberta. He's got some killer prices, I'm sure he'll find 'ya on here... or else I can let him know you're interested. I'll probably place my next order with him.

Which Fitnessworld you workout at?

Well i went to my local supplement shop popeye's supps today to pick up some m-stack for my bulking cycle coming up and the guy told me that m-stak and stak-2 have been banned and they jsut sold there last 6 tins to some guy who couldnt say enough good things about m-stak, so instead i picked up the regular pak, and nitro just wondering if anyoen knows anything about this ban or if i can get it anywhere else/will it pass the border

hey bro...last year i heard they werent gonna carry any animal products in canada...a few ingrediants were banned i believe...I dont know of anywhere you can get it...My guess would be any supplement website that ships to canada.

Hey bro,

If done through the proper legal avenues, MStak and Stak2 and any other Animal/UN product are still accessible in Canada. As was once posted some time ago by ‘Juggernaut’, “buying in Canada prevents the risk of having it shipped back and losing your money. Not only that, border crossing with non-approved products can red flag Universal/ANIMAL in Canada and we don't want that”.

You can buy it all Canadian here: *********

Peace,

I hope you guys aren't plotting some black market Animal ring or cartel...

I find it odd that those supps would be banned. What specific substances aren't allowed in Canada?

I find it odd as well…

As mentioned, Universal Nutrition has kindly set up International Distributors so their products are available to users worldwide. I can only assume that ‘Littlefry’s’ supplement store has encountered some issues with border-crossing which means they were not using the proper avenues set in place for International distribution. As for substances not allowed, Heath Canada no doubt has a very long list of banned ingredients that would conflict with the Food and Drug Act that I don’t believe are in Animals’ products as they are still readily available here. However it’s up to the individual to make sure of any products ingredient profile before attempting cross-border transit as ignorance is not above the law.

l-carnitine is the ingredient that I was told was banned. Something to do with it being classified a class 4 narcotic I think. Dumb-eh?

Littlefry
07-11-07, 1:41 pm
thx stiff i was tryin to remember which substance they siad was banned and you hit it right on the nail its not just my local supp store that i go to but i went to GNC and they told me the same thing

If that were the case, they'd need to ban food - namely meats and dairy products. Still seems weird to me...

l-carnitine is the ingredient that I was told was banned. Something to do with it being classified a class 4 narcotic I think. Dumb-eh?

can't believe it... L-carnitine is so well sold in my country and I heard it's quite a ''natural'' stuff, some derivative form amino-acids or something like that... animal pak and animal cuts also contain l-carnitine, I don't think this is the banned ingredient...

mark_b
07-11-07, 2:56 pm
...from http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki/Carnitine

Health supplements
Products containing L-carnitine cannot be marketed as "natural health products" in Canada, since L-carnitine is not considered a natural ingredient. L-carnitine products and supplements are not allowed to be imported into the country (Health Canada).[3]

3. ^ NHPD Monthly Communique, Vol. 1, Issue 1, September 2005. (http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/dhp-mps/prodnatur/bulletins/communiques/communique_sep05_e.html) Retrieved on 2007-06-01.

-------------------------------

I find this really interesting, though, because yes, L-Carnitine is found in many food products, most highly concentrated in red meat.

Health Canada...odd folks.

Although, if you go through the proper channels, M-Stak can be purchased here perfectly legally. I get mine from ProteinJunkie.

Littlefry
07-11-07, 3:30 pm
thx for that wiki mark i new there was a reason why and the L-car is also in pak which is very true but since its a multi-vitamin they seem to overlook it for some reason?

Odd folks indeed...

Here we live in a society surrounded by hundreds if not thousands who die daily of tobacco, alcohol, obesity and sales of over-the-counter drugs yet we have ingredients that are perfectly safe to supplement with in controlled dosages receiving bad press and negative publicity making it difficult for cross-border transit. Once again the topic of what we do and what we consume is a ‘misunderstood industry’ and is under scrutiny by under-educated over-hyped anti-supplement lobbyists. Who knows what the future will bring. In the meantime, shop smart.

Universal/ANIMAL does not want their products shipping from the states into Canada. There are plenty of Canadian resellers with our brand buying from an exclusive distributor authorized by Universal. Soon we will have a list of who carries the line in Canada..

Not just the animal line, but Universal products in general are tough to find up here.

I think it has more to do with the lack of popularity, though.

Every supplement store will be jam-packed with BSN, Dymatize, Muscletech, etc. products simply because they're aggresively marketed. They go out of their way to make sure that they have most of their products sold in stores, and they have high visibility because they take out pages and pages of ads in Flex, etc.

Universal and the Animal line in particular are more specialized, no-nonsense supplements. You don't go to your local gym and hear the posers talking about the Pak...because why on Earth would they need a multivitamin when they can get jacked on excessive amounts of taurine and no2? Riight...

So most stores will carry very little of the line-up, or none at all because shelf space is expensive, and so is carrying an inventory of stuff that just doesn't sell well.

Therefore we are all forced to buy online.

But even buying online... from personal experience, if you're buying anything from online distributors based in the States, then be prepared to wait a damn long time for your order... customs will rip your order apart and find every excuse in the book to keep it waiting at the border for as long as they like before releasing it to be shipped to you.

Them's the breaks, but we do what we gotta do.

That's way Universal has an exclusive distributor that is in close contact with Health Canada. Don't screw things up by ordering from the States and red flag Universal. Let's get a list going of places that have it already in Canada and build the brand so they want us more.

Thank you for the compliments boys…

For the record, as well as to help alleviate any concerns, I DO deal specifically with this exclusive dealer that ‘Juggernaut’ speaks of and provide just the same as larger retailers in Canada in conjunction with Health Canada. However I couldn’t help but notice that only website links are allowed for posting, which I have yet to establish, so Jugg - I’d like to apologize for specifying my e-mail address earlier. Until I do, I proudly am a loyal user, consumer and sub-distributor of Animal/UN line and hope to provide for any Canadians looking for a place to shop smart in Canada.

That happened to me too justin but i later found out that they put that on the site so they dont get bombarded with their canadian fans trying to order products and then they have to cancel and email a bunch of people to let them know that their orders were cancelled. The other thing too is that when you get to the Shipping Address screen, you will not be able to select "canada" as the country. It will always say "united states" but they know that its going to canada based on your postal code.

Hey guys,

i went from 130 at 8% bf and now i am up to 171 still at 8% bf. so i am very happy with my gains, although right now i am stuck and i havent been able to get to my desired weight. i am pretty short so i would love to weigh about 185 but i cant grow anymore. i work my ass off in the gym and eat healthy but i just wont grow. So i have decided to take a few cycles of M stak but i cant find any store that sells m stak. i am from canada and cant find any. what should i do? i am dieing to take this product and i cant get it anywhere. and if i order from a site it works out to be more than it should be since its like $20.00 shipping and it will get stuck at customs and i wont get it or a fuckin month most likely. any suggestions? are there any other animal supplements that would help me put on muslce like m stak would.

thanks

7. its abought 45mins to school so i wake up..and before i leave i take my shake, and now i plan on taking m stak.

I would suggest spacing it out a little. An idea is, set your alarm for 5:30, down your M-stak pack and hit the snooze until 6:00. Then it will have some time to digest before you hit it with the gainer shake, and also will contribute to the nutrient partitioning of that very shake.

so even though it says to take it 45mins before workout its ok to take it like 1 1/2 hrs before i workout and ill still feel the same effects appose to 45mins before? and its ok to take m stak before the shake?

Giant Killer
10-13-07, 1:22 pm
You could also do your shake at 6, and M-stak at 6:30. Now that I think about it, that may be even better. I'm sorry, I was just having a hard time getting a feel for your timing. Whatever the case may be, I would want to space it out instead of taking them together.

I don't know how many Canadians use Animal Stack or how many Canadians use this site. But I am Canadian and I have done both and I think Animal Pak products are amazing. The only trouble is they aren't available here. You can't buy them anywhere and if you ask about them it's like your asking for steroids. Why can't you get them here, they sell everything else?.. it's not a big deal for me I can zip over the border in 15 min. I just think it is fucked... Anybody know the reason for this? Animal pak is amazing, I did 2 stacks of them before I went to school, I didn't realize it while I was on them but I sure knew when I was off of them, it helped me to build up my chest and back and really get some big gains, and my workouts just weren't the same after. I am planning to use them again.. I just don't understand why they aren't available to all Canadians...

there's supplementscanada.com that i know of, but they sells things 30$ over... So instead of buying PAK at 22-28$ you need to pay 56$ for it.... it's a steal, but you get free shipping and 24-72hrs shipping.

They do not have as much product as bb.com.

So there's two scenario:

I order from supplements canada.com, faster shipping, but 40-80$ more expensive

I order from bb.com, wait 1 month for my order (1 week to get to the customs, 2 weeks held at customs, 1 week to get shipped to your door), but get all the product i want.

This is bullshit, but oh well......what can we do.

Agreed but let me make one thing very clear. There is only one authorized exclusive distributor in all on Canada, its Canusa Trading Group 888-801-8688 or canusa@gwi.net Protein Junkie IS going through the right channels. Unless people are buying through Canusa, Universal will not support any problems you run into with shipping.

I have discovered that they don't buy from Canusa so that means they are not on the approved list for shipping in Canada by Universal. Generally these companies buy from US distributors that should not be shipping into Canada in the first place. Using sneeky methods they all have the chance of having Universal looked at as a rebel company by Canadian officials and could prevent anything Universal/ANIMAL shipping there. Start contacting the real deal Canusa Trading Group for more info and even tell them who is shipping product so they can approach them to do proper business.

One thing you may not realize with your actions here is the cross border ordering you are doing jeopardizes the relations that the actual supplier here in Canada have with CANUSA. If your order ever gets seized you will be out not only your shipment but your money and making it even harder for us to get Animal/UN products here. No offence meant, just my two cents.

It's cool, don't worry about this post because it is in fact what most are taking from what happens when you compare getting product from the US or direct in your own country. The true difference is that it costs money to bring the product into Canada and then again to ship it in Canada, on top of all that are business taxes and duty costs. In a nut shell it's not that your neighbors are robbing you it's just that their margin of profit is greatly reduced and they must raise the price to stay in business.

Hey bro,

Gear is permitted and so it the book. Just plug in your info in ‘The Shop’ and they will flag it on their end that it’s to Canada even though it’s not prompted on the ordering page. Having said that, beware you’ll no doubt have to pay customs fees and taxes to import the goods. The Intra-Aid came without a hitch because it was handled through Universal’s exclusive distributor for Canada. That’s what they do.

There are a few distributors within our borders that supply some of Universal’s supplements and for the record; I am proudly one of them. What differs? Because I deal directly with Universal Nutrition's authorized exclusive Canadian distributor, Canusa Trading Group, we have all collectively made it our recent mission to bring in supplements that have never before been found in Canada - regardless of their popularity here thus far. Having availability to these supplements, like Torrent or Storm to name but two that were mentioned, is part of the process in changing that and keeping it in the Canadian family.

Welcome to the Forvm Xckelter and thanks for your input.

I’ll mention one thing in that I think you’ll find that it’s not nearly as impossible in getting Animal supps here in Canada as much as it used to be, and that’s just not to do with what I provide. The brand has become a lot more attainable now.

But despite what other places can offer, if what you’re after in terms of Animal is their supplements, the gear and knowledge of your availability to newly released items and promos for free swag, what’s provided right here for Canadian Forvm members is second to none. You can’t put a price on that. For the loyal following, it’s not always about what a place can offer...it’s time and again about what they don’t offer that they want that makes the difference.

I've noticed the availability has definitely gone up here in Canada, which is a major plus. Although the main issue I've faced is the pricing, in comparison to those of the states (not even touching on some of the absolutely blood boiling "customer service" that some of the cheaper companies suffer from), that is the prominent source of frustration for myself.

I'm quite glad I've stumbled upon the Forvm, and I especially look forward to the future.

Pricing has always been a point of conversation for most Canadians as they sit back in their computer chairs and compare our pricing to that of Americans straight across the board. However, more times than not, Canadian shoppers don’t realize/consider that it costs distributors and businesses to import products in from the States.

Think about it: I think you’d be hard pressed to find any importing country offer the same price on any item, and not just in the supplement industry, that the host country offers. The same could be said for our Provinces. There is no way you would be able to get your hands on our host Albertan Grade AAA beef in Ontario as cheap as I get it here. It costs your Province to bring it in and make ‘their nut’ as well. Same goes for anything I want in Alberta that gets manufactured in your Ontario. And that’s just within our borders – same rules and then some apply with International trade.

Once that mentality that Canadians shouldn’t have it at the same cost as the USA is understood, I think you’ll find that what we DO have here in pricing isn’t that shocking. By the time any one consumer imports their own item and pays for a higher exchange rate, pays exorbitant shipping fees, waits several days upon weeks for their item to arrive only to be hit with customs/duty charges upon getting it all the while dealing with mediocre customer service – the prices are close to if not the same to what you’d pay here anyway. And without the delays and without the risk of having it seized at the border. Why is there such an interest in it? Lastly, what’s wrong with spending a few extra bucks even if you have to to support a fellow Canadian company? Food for thought…

Anyway were glad to have ya here and like you, we all look forward to the future and making sure Canadians are provided the very best prices, selection and access to promos that can be offered.

Always struggled to get the most basic supps here in Canada and I agree it has gotten better as more and more products from the Animal line are showing up in stores, but glad I got a chance to hook up with ProteinJunkie.

Although I haven't picked up as much as I want to, just knowing it is a couple Provinces away and has most, if not all that I am looking for is good enough for me. Pricing is and always will be a factor, but I agree it costs to bring the supps here and it is extremely tough to match a Major corporation that has warehousing and the ability to buy bulk. Would be cool to reap what our neighbors in the South get price wise, but that is something that may never happen and we just have to deal with it.

At the end of the day, we get what we pay for. It can become an expensive hobby for sure but I take comfort in knowing that what I take in from Animal is working. I can penny pinch and get other supps cheaper, but in the end I am only cheating myself.

100% Animal.

Let me re-phrase for you, don't offer products to Canadians from your purchases from the States on this forvm or anywhere else and don't talk about products from the US even if the US company opens a store in your country. It's not approved by corp. Proteinjunkie right there in Canada deals with the only approved distributor in Canada.
