TweetI haven't bought form GNC in years. Honestly get all I need from TGB. As far as Muscle Milk, I have been getting a shake at this new gym we joined and they throw a scoop of vanilla Muscle Milk in it and it is quite good. I don't like the lquid muscle milks at all though

TweetThat's the first place I ever bought from... It's a ripoff and only noobs and ppl that don't know shit go there. Place sucks ass

TweetGNC depends on attracting customers who are naive and uninformed, very often teenagers.
I saw a bottle of pills at the counter that said it increases your testosterone, for like $75 for 30 pills. What a joke. Shameful

TweetThey stay in biz from wealthy people who think GNC knows best because its been in biz for a long time...that and unsuspecting newbies. Other than that theory I have no idea.

TweetLOL yeah I think GNC makes it's money off people new to the bodybuilding / fitness world. They just know the name and that's the first place they go. Such a rip off.

TweetGNC stays in business from yes " Noobs " and old people that just go there because of the name that's been around for so long !!!
No offense to the " old folks " lol !!! But I know friends that still go there , after I tell them that there's better places to get their supplement needs !!!
But on the other hand , I still get the GNC newsletter and sometimes GNC does have good deals on like vitamins and such , BOGO , or even buy 1 get 50% off another . And at times they do mark down certain things that I've noticed like TUDCA , NAC , milk thistle , things of that nature . Not bad if u ask me !!!

TweetHave not bought from them since the 90's hate the place

TweetI know a few younger guys who workout at my gym that work at GNC. From what I understand they are affiliated with a bunch of large brands like Optimum Nutrition and some others that I don't remember off the top of my head. So they make money off their products that aren't even being sold in the their own stores. If there is a rite aid drugstore close to you, they have gnc products and with the rite aid wellness card you can get almost everything at a discount. That's where I buy my mega man multivitamin. Vitamin Shoppe also has very competitive pricing compared to online.

Tweettgb supplements. takes 2-3 days tops to get your order and if you call with a question they dont try to sell you a bunch of bs or expensive crap you dont need. fast and great customer service was enough to hook me.

TweetI absolutely hate that place! If you think about the name General Nutrition Center that's going to be the first thing people think of when they think healthy or fitness lifestyle. Everyone knows the best prices are online I'm a little impatient so I just buy from Vitamin Shoppe. GNC sucks ass I can't stand that place and the people in there are usually wacko health nuts don't know anything about lifting.

TweetAnother thing that makes TGB, and all of our sponosrs, stand out from the rest, is the knowledge behind the company! Your chances of getting the "right" product for your needs/goals and great knowledge is much more probable from them rather than asking a question to most at GNC or the Vitamin Shoppe

TweetAs stated above they make their money from people who don't know what they are doing. People who are misinformed about what some of those supplements do and the few that work how to implement them properly. When I first started I got sucked into the gold card scam and wasted a lot on garbage. I guess I can't blame them for selling me the stuff. Don't think I could do that to another person knowing what I know now. There's always gonna be snake oil and someone to sell it. Live and learn.

TweetWELLLL, i went to GNC last week actually lol...just to show my girlfriend some products in person...only bought some Quest bars...but he told me they now price match any brick-and-mortar business...I still only shop at Bodybuilding.com and Vitamin Shoppe....but i guess i'm a noob now hahaha
