    Default Opinions Needed

    I am currently running NTBM DAA powder @ 3g daily. I was wondering if you guys have ever ran this up until the day of a show? Last year I dropped it a week out from my shows to avoid any possible water retention but I was considering keeping it in the mix this time. I am open to some other opinions on this! Thanks

    I did end up using it through show day and didnt notice any water retention. If there is it is minimal. If anything it almost seemed like it was somewhat of a cell volumizer. There is alot of factors in play to make that claim though.

    I figured since I was show ready it would really show in my physique if it made a difference or not.
