Best of the best. Based on their performance and constant effort throughout the supplement industry. All the way up to 2011. Some may be surprised to not see a few on the list. This is just top 5. There are a lot out there that have been left out. These top 5 deserve these positions. By top brands we mean impressive, trusting. You can trust to buy products from these 5. Quality, price, results, availability and just all round greatness. The main thing that has been counted here is improvement. Taking the next step and going further. Here you go.
#5 Cytosport
It is hard to make a name for yourself, especially with such a large range. Novelty items are found from almost every brand today. Whey protein, creatine, glutamine they are all pretty much the same. So many companies can make them well. Optimum have been dominate for such a long time. Dymatize came in over the past few years as well. But no one has managed to create a solid base like Cytosport. Not going with simple whey titles. Milk. Muscle Milk. Diving out into sub brands. The darker Monster label. Collegiate series. Cytomax, specialized. Cytosport have created arenas for them to grow and grow big. RTDs, bars, powders its all there. Some make just a good creatine. Some make just a good whey. Cytosport make a great everything.
#4 MuscleMeds
If you are not a fan jump on quick. MuscleMeds changed the game. With Kai Greene representing them. Meds have got a small line of products but at the same time. Offer everything. With a protein powder at the price and quality of Carnivor. All they needed was a mass gainer. Oh yes they just released that. Feeling like growing a bit more. Jump on one of their supremely developed T boosters. Quality that is beyond that of Gaspari and Muscletech. Regardless of Mtech’s recent attempt, Alphatest or Hydroxystim. In the short time they have been around it has been one hit wonder over and over again. Making for a awesome 5 supp line up. Putting aside their recent Decanate and Mass. MuscleMeds is a quality like no other.
#3 Cellucor
They were sexy from the get go. For a brand to unleash such good supplements as much as they have it takes an effort. Costly in the beginning but as they have developed. Cellucor have Justified every step. In turn creating a range that puts creativity to the test. You know that awesome product from Scivation. Xtend. Huge amount of thought into that. Formulation and more so. Cellucor have an entire line of Xtend’s. Every product is worth the price. You go Cellucor you will get your money’s worth. Raise the price and you would still be getting good value. When you find nothing working. When you do not think there are any supplements out there except sub $20USD pre-workouts or 5lb wheys under $40USD. Do not be surprised at zero results. And get your ass on Cellucor.
#2 Animal Pak
The only one in the world right now who has no protein powder. It is like the greatest actor in the world doing just one movie a year. You can count on it being the shit. Animal Pak did just that. Animal Rage the very first powder. The answer to the Jack3d villain. Rocked the world. Showing just how hardcore a pre-workout can be without DMAA. They also did it in pill form. Proving that the deletion of BPI’s 1 M.R. pill form was a bad idea. Since the release more flavours get added. Slaughter melon and apple jacked. What have they got for 2012. Who knows. Very few areas that Animal are absent from. With the experience and continued quality that they bring. There will soon be none.
#1 Muscle Pharm
You had to of known. Trying to make a good supplement that had no banned substances was thought to be impossible. Making a brand off no banned substances seemed like starting a running race with one leg. Muscle Pharm have made an entire supplement line out of products you can count on. Jack3d is no more. Assault is the number one pre-workout and that says it all. That was a mountain that almost everyone though was impossible. It is one thing making a supplement better then Jack3d. Neurocore for example. It is another beating it out of sales. With more things to come in 2012 already being talked about. This will be the year of the athlete. No longer are WADA athlete’s being held back from top quality products. Muscle Pharm is given this number 1 spot for being the best.
