I have tried Tribulus and had a blood test for my test levels as i have a low test level-my score came back at 10.3,i was taking it as per the manufacturers instructions and eating clean.
so i can confirm that Tribulus does absolutely nothing

Not all tribulas is the same! It all depends on your source and hows its processed, I have had great success with New Zealand based products e.g [brand names removed by admin] (greater sex drive, mass gains, strength) its great stuff and everyone I train with seems to have good results with it too.
In saying that though I have purchased several off shore brands to save some $ that done absolutley nothing.

how old were the rugby players? were the placebo players young enough to be producing a ton of tesosterone on their own without trib so thats why the tests dont show anything? have any results on tests taken by people over 40 maybe?

Hey Mark

I have had really good effects of supplementing Tribulus in the past but have noticed that I have real good feeling and alot more aggression at the gym and have had friends who had same effect. I have tried small amounts and doses suggested on botle but found you have to take a certain amount to notice a major difference and it does seem to make me look leaner. Also I have tried different brands etc and they vary alot. The one I used to use from myprotein was awsome and I was an animal in the gym but I had to have more than suggested dose. Its also works for your sex life too lol!

Do NOT waste your money on this stuff

It amazes me how many herbal products come out claiming to do certain things, when tests are down, then shown it doesn’t increase like it claims….it still remains on the market. How can this be?

@josh Your Dr friend said caffeine helped muscle growth?

Another outstanding article, Mark! I was never really considering trying it but at least there’s less time to be wasted now!

As always, your efforts are much appreciated.

Mark, thanks for cutting to chase. I love the approach you take to all the supplements out there. I especially liked your article on NO2. I shared your NO2 analysis with a Dr friend who agreed completely with you that AAKG and caffeine are the only two ingredients of any real value for muscle growth.

FYI, I’ve lifted for years and switched to your HIT program and MANS diet 6 months ago. I’ve added 0.6 in to my arms and cut 1.5in from my waist…by far my best 6 month gains (and losses) ever. Thanks again

Never tried Tribulus before, however, after those data in your research I won’t be wasting my money. Keep up the good work Mark.

@Tommy. Automatically generated by Google. Also depends on where you are geographically and your browsing history. I’m getting an ad for omega 3 supplementation.
@Dustin. I have to close them, man. I’ve got hundreds of articles going now. I’d be spending much too much time moderating comments if I left them all open.
AAKG is L-Arginine combined with Alpha-Ketoglutarate. The AKG helps with absorption of the L-Arginine

THAT’S hilarious ! Everybody wants a shortcut !!! How about some good old fashion hard work !!! And like Mark says … just keep the supplementation to the simple basics !!! At-a-go Mark !

Why do you close the comments on your articles so soon or even at all? I was wondering if there was a difference in Arginine akg and L-Arginine. Like you, I try to keep my supplements narrowed down to the ones that are less hype and more results.

Did you realize that an add for Force Factor by GNC is at the bottom of this post?
Is this something you endorse or is it tacked to your blog by your service provider?

Mark, thanks for this article. Having tried Tribulus in the past myself and not really feeling or noticing any change, I wondered if I was a metabolic anomaly. I will have to do a medline search for the same type of study based on Yohimbe. I did a few cycles of it and definitely found it had noticeable effects. Too bad they included tachycardia.
