    In terms of changing your body which one of these will give u better or any results for 60 bucks

    A) using a protein pudding
    B) using an intraworkout drink
    C) using caffeine heat

    If u picked B. Or C you are delusional, a pencil neck, or work for the Marcus Welby site .

    Charging $60 is the sellers choice .. I know for a fact I can own it for under $40. People can make whatever margin they want in a product .. I sell alcohol for a living .. I have customers that sell a .750 of captain Morgan for $12.99. Very low margin but many sales compared to Kroger selling the same product for $19.99 .

    Good business sense. The manufacturer sells wholesale to the distributors and doesn't advertise retail at lowest price to protect the incentive for the distributors and retailers.
    That said, in the supplements market I suspect a majority of companies most expensive ingredient is marketing. I'd think the entire RxMuscle budget could be expensed to Species marketing not so much for two fat burners and a pre-workout with Steve's operation.
    And who on Team MD other than the two sponsored athletes (Joe Donnelly and Dianna Dahlgren) ever promote it? I'd have all of Team MD wearing Thermo Heat long underwear and jock straps to shows if I was Steve. Every interview end with a bottle of Thermo Heat in hand boldly claiming as he has the sponsored athletes claim THE MOST REVOLUTIONARY FAT BURNER EVER!!! JUST LOOK AT ME MY HEAD IS ABOUT TO EXPLODE!!! (all natural)

    I tried twice

    The second time i used "protein powder" instead of "protein pudding" (Yeah I know i'm a sneaky bastard). And i add Muffins as a new option of pre-workout.

    I wrote to 3 of the mods there to politely ask why and by whom my thread was deleted.
    It seems that there is no more free expression there anymore.

    Whenever I advance evidence again intra-workout there is like a police of thinking there that either censored me or bash me saying things i did not say. That's pretty sad.

    I'm of course making sure to never make offensive comments. Just stating fact and using deductive thinking.

    If your comments aren't in line with Team MDs cabal of reasoning it is offensive over there. And as Bob points out regularly with what he considers Sandwich baloney they have all the REAL facts and you are just guessing. Thermo Heat & their obscure pre-workout along with whomever is giving them ad dollars today or last week (primo, blacklabs, ironstones, etc) NOT Palumbo Pudding is all you need to know about the supplement industry (j/k)

    HINT: People are willing to pay a little more for a quality product! Otherwise, Mercedes, BMW, Porsche, and Audi would be out of business.
    Another way of thinking is dividing the prices by the doses and comparing it to the price of a Mcflurry from mcdonalds or a starbuckcofee treat. Pretty much the same cost without 30g of quality protein.
