awesome info thanks dakotaben
another website i use for fitness, and diet research has a link at the top that says "Top 50 Supplements" which automatically redirects you to bb.com's top 50 list... here is the home page.
http://www.simplyshredded.com/
you will see the link in the top left corner
I know this is not extremely important... but it just goes to show that people are getting pulled in from all places to bb.com... and one of the first things they will notice on the worlds #1 online supplement supplier is that MP has 6 products in the top 50... with the newly #1 pre workout Assault.. not sure how the others rank in their subcats.... but this makes me wonder how many fitness, diet, and/or nutrition venues have links to bb.com which show MP on the first page.
Dnizzle... correct me if i am wrong but you work at or have insight on bb.com... is there any way to get a list of all of the different websites that link back to bb.com?
also if you click on this link...

about 3/4's of the way down they ask her in bold letters "What is your supplementation like?"
check her answer...
just some stuff I ran across today...
Public facebook page sounds good.... There is a possibility it could hurt sales, but that would be the ultimate power of the shareholders... Since, shareholders can NOT effectively vote on ANYTHING the only power they have is to bring the shareholder raping to the most public venue possible.. then go and buy facebook likes for it and it pops up right there with them... Would you even have to alter the name or company logo, seeing that we are effectively all owners? I say this entire page resumes discussion on a public facebook page.... instead of a web page that nobody will ever find until they either are looking at buying, or already bought stock.. Very good idea Turokman.... I truly believe this is the only effective weapon against people who can outvote you... How does that saying go?.... "If we can't beat them on the field we'll beat'em in the parking lot"
And another thing... Let MP be a member of the page, so they can comment whenever they would like.
I am making that claim off of my own personal opinion. having used the other products and having used MP's products.. MP's supplements, are top notch... I have a new saying for you.. instead of doing some research, why don you just buy some of their products, stick with one of their diets and exercise for a month and then tell me that they dont work, and then ask me how i can make that claim. I am not an expert in any supplementation, but i am a product of their product, having lost 40 pounds using their supplements, and having people walk up to me and say damn where can i get that shirt.. and seeing people literally throw away their UA compression gear once theyve used MP's..... these are reasons why i say their product will be better.. because i am watching it in the real world.. not from some analyst screen, not sitting on stock forums disgruntled because i lost money(in which you knew the risk by the way).. but getting out there and seeing it out do the competition.. lol funny story.. i walked into hooters the other day and one of the waitresses asked me " is that the same MP that makes this... (she held up muscle gel) i said yep sure is where did you get that? she said they're selling it at the blah blah store but i need to order some cause they cant keep enough in stock..... their products are better.. that is my personal opinion based upon my personal experience.
Stacking up to supps sold strictly in supp venues.. i believe you are referring to someone mentioning "lighter" products.. you dont take something like assault and give it to someone who has never used a stimulant before.. you would give them a "lighter" less stimulating product... such as MMA Elite.. i think this is what you are referring to.. i could be way off topic though..
quite personally i dont care if you do research or not(its your money).. but if you buy stock without doing it, then you'll have better luck in vegas.. and maybe... just maybe... if people would stop saying things that are completely wrong and have already been proven ... ie ... thinking the walmart products will be the same... then you might not hear "do some research" so much .... just a thought....
thanks Steady
I've looked at the ingredients, and i've taken supplements from walmart before.. only because i had to get some to take with on a last minute call out offshore.. the supplements at walmart are trash.. i tried alot of supplements before i found MP... and now i'm hooked cause they work.. so why would they ruin their name to the CUSTOMERS by putting out a crap product.. yeah their give a shit about the stock holder seems to be at an all time low, but their customer is at an all time high.. eventually when they stop expanding.. they wont have to rape the stockholders for money and their fat bonus's will slim down, and the profits will turn... until then... their supplements work, and they are an expanding company.. you should help the profit by buying stock, and MP gear and supplements! :) cheer up its Christmas!!!
just look at the ingredients. Have you ever taken supplements before?
ingredients in MMA Elite products will not be the same.. they will be better than the other products on the shelves at these wholesale stores but will not stack up to the products being sold in strictly supplement venues. they are trying to reach the everyday person who walks by the aisle and thinks.. hmm i can get into shape... think of these wholesale stores as an intro level to supplements, and the supplements being sold there are intro level.. I guarantee someone who is a diehard fitness fanatic will still order off bb.com or some other site over walmart and such... however, a lot of people at walmart will never google bodybuilding.com or walk into a gnc... but they'll see the product there and use it, then wonder who MP is then google MP and find their other products...

I asked Muscle Pharm one time about being able to sell their supplements on their website, and there response was.. We are looking to have that ability in the future.
New products just released.. Gym Bag labelled as "SML" They will be releasing a large bag within a week or so...
just because you can not wrap your fuzzy little head around the information that doesnt make it wrong. That information was not taken from bb forums, it was taken from case studies that i read in the past... and seeing how my work directly relates to the human body and its reactions under pressure down to the cellular level i can understand it.. embarrassing for me no.. all you have done is open your mouth as if someone has pulled your string, spit some facts out instead of this nonsense you consider knowledge, if you think water does not play a role in the building and repair of muscles then you are delusional and ill informed
Looks to me like you just copy and pasted a wikipedia page and passed it off as your own knowledge....
What he is referring to about water to the muscles is a basic way to describe it.. A pre workout supplement works on the premise that it will cause a state of vasodilation, use your bff wikipedia to keep up if you cant.. This vasodilation occurs at whatever place in the body is being worked, doesn't even have to apply to working out.... How do you think you get an erection? Increase in blood flow... By allowing this increase in blood flow, you are allowing the increase in nutrients available to that area as well, due to the dilation.. Also we all know the importance of drinking plenty of water, and staying hydrated... Also drinking plenty of water helps to lower the viscosity level of blood( why do you think people get headaches when they travel to altitude? blood is to thick) allowing it to flow in and out of the cells easier, thus shuttling nutrients in and faster(also why do you think it is important to take an aspirin if youre having a stroke, the aspirin lowers the viscosity of the blood causing the clot to decrease allowing blood flow to the brain).. Never mind that atp nonsense, you want to work out and get bigger or do you want to scientifically formulate the product.... So its not necessarily allowing more water into muscles but it is allowing the blood to flow in and out of the affected tissue easier.. This all reacts on a partial pressure of the nutrient in the blood versus the cell... if the partial pressure is greater in the blood stream than that in the cell it will diffuse through until it is equalized or saturated... More blood flow=more readily available nutrients << it works in reverse as well... after the muscle exerts itself and releases the by-product it then has a greater partial pressure of product in the cell than in the blood, therefore it will diffuse back in to the bloodstream, and if that blood stream is more efficient due to having a lower viscosity, due to being properly hydrated the entire system will work better... Do your research..

Interesting article about Southridge....
http://www.forbes.com/2009/10/07/sec-southridge-capital-business-wall-street-southridge.html
user interface on musclepharm.com ...... If anyone has ordered anything from MP recently you might have noticed what i am talking about.. if not then more on this tomorrow... it will allow for profile... photos, and status updates... more than likely tied to facebook somehow but thats just speculative.. i will post a picture of a screen shot tomorrow... more to come
To add to my previous statement.. i believe i saw that its $100,000 in common stock for every $1M in sales... so for this year... $20M in sales.. comes to $2M in common stock.. at $.018/share 111,111,111 shares... ride to a buck and... well youre &^$%()&% rich... lol
Most important information.... IMO the pps is going to be tied directly to when these guys receive their common stock share bonus... why would they want the stock price to make the dramatic climb that we all know it is capable of before they get their bonus? lets say this stock could go to $1.... if they receive their common stock shares then, well it would only be worth 100,000 shares for $100,000... simple math... however... if they can get their stock in the trenches where we are all at around $.018/share then they will receive 5,555,555 shares... then they can ride the climb to the top... sitting on $5.5M at $1/share instead of a measly $100,000 ... it only makes common sense to keep it down until they collect their bonuses whether it be off of this year or next years sales numbers... i suspect that once they receive their shares the stock price will skyrocket... the big question IMO has already been asked by TARKLESS in his letter to investor relations... So IF they decide to respond to him we shall have a big clue as to a time frame for when this stock will take off.. IMO...
please correct me if i am wrong but imagine yourself attached to this contract.. would you want to collect your shares before or after the climb? I think everyones answer would be before....
Convert shares again?! Just went from 348 O/S to 380 O/S.... if they did, the only thing I can think of would be getting some cash on hand to gear up for their Walmart/International .... etc Holiday 2011 rollout....
No bubble bursted here... I have been a facebook fan since they were striving to get 6000 fans(also when I started using their products.) and have been keeping up with it since, They haven't miraculously grown fans in an instant, and the large influx of fans now is due in part to the massive advertising, and the contest that Muscle Pharm has put on Twitter regarding OchoCinco ... I think if they were going to buy that many fans, with their so called "irresponsible spending" then they would buy a lot more .... not to mention their growth in sales correlates to their product awareness, which is also attached to how many people follow them... I guess they are also paying people to write on their page as well?... and paying people to buy their product as well..? show me those sites..
42,000 fans today is amazing.... on 12Nov. they were at 40,274 around 5pm... and as of last night around midnight they were around 40,600 (including UFC night on Sat. )... and now 12 hours later they're up almost another 1,000 fans... thats amazing..
BB.com jacked the price of the "get swole" stack... (via Facebook) Hmmm maybe they see a demand?.. This was addressed to MP and they said they are going to see why, and also said to just get the womens get lean stack bc its the same products... What is everyones interpretations on this? Why would BB.com jack the price?
I personally do think it would be a waste of time. What exactly could they tell us that we don't already know? The numbers speak for themselves. I think he is right by not worrying about PR right now as far as that goes. Let them take care of business and bring this up to a $.50 stock where a lot of us start to see some major gains, then PR us and tell us why we should leave our money in, instead of cashing out... just my opinion.. I am no expert though.. I just don't want to be PR'd to death with things we already know.
More MP news ............... as per their Facebook
MMA Elite Perform and Recover getting closer for launching.. We have 10 samples of each to give out to our loyal MP Fans. Tell us why your a MP fan and we will pick 20 winners on Friday.
That post was up to about 50 responds in just 10 minutes... :) let the haters hate and watch the money pile up!!
Things to come for MP!!!!!! if you go to the MusclePharm facebook page and look under the comment thread initiated by, "Ryan Gilley" they ask if there will be a conference call, or a Q&A for shareholders... MusclePharms response was,
"Yes in the future but right now were still in a infant state that it would be a waste of time and be a lot of what ifs and things to come that we would not be able to comment"
Hmmmm.... Things to come ehh?! I wonder what that could be......
what last supplement venture? tone in twenty was a personal training "venture"
Yeah I compared to MusclePharm to underarmour.... so what of it.. I bought this stock looking at the potential it has, not because i love buying a stock that has a history of dilution... I will ask once again.. give me a reason for this company to fail besides dilution, and spending on expansion that comes from dilution....tell me their product is crap, or tell me they don't have product awareness, or tell me their not reaching the right markets...... Where do you expect them to get the money from? If they couldn't secure any funds from anywhere else, then i would assume it was either convert those shares and dilute the market to get some money or fail at that point... and they chose to go for it..
maybe if the fate of the company was up to all of you dilution naysayers the company would have already been closed and this thread would not exist.... better yet if you have such amazing ideas to bring in some money in some other fashion, and you are a shareholder, then why don't you get with MP give them your amazing idea and everything will be solved.... and your stock price will go up!! everyone wins!!
but lets see... first of all you probably dont have any ideas.... yeah sure you can state the obvious " they need to find another form of money, and stop spending" but its overplayed and quite frankly immature at this point to keep stating this... and if you want to keep repeating those statements then you should write up a formal complaint about dilution and spending then go on their website, click the contact us tab and copy and paste your amazing idea into the comment box... and you can even leave your name and contact information in there for them to get in touch with you.. tell the people that can do something about it... better yet since they supposedly delete the negative comments on their facebook wall, which means they watch it carefully, then put your concerns on their.. you'll know it was read once it was deleted!... hence point across....
I have even filled out multiple inquiries on UA's investor site asking how they are deal with Musclepharm... yeah it will get filtered and they probably wont pass it up to the ceo but at least people will be talking about it.. and i'll keep asking them... and i'll keep submitting stuff to MP saying good job guys you're gonna take out UA keep it up!! positive reinforcement..
I for one would not want to have some of you on any team that i am on because all you do is see one thing negative and tuck your tail and run... if you dont like the company and think its only going to get worse then sell your stock now, cut your losses and be down with this message board... or else i have to be left to assume that you as well see potential.. and youre just a naturally negative person :)
MP will take off... spread the word, its not called pumping, its called advertising... look at apple... they deny the existence of a product up until a week before its release... talk about lack of advertising..... but it still seems that by word of mouth then entire PLANET knew about it... do your part! :)
Call it dreams of grandeur... call it what you will.... I see monstrous potential with this company.. first let me start by saying that when I dropped my $ for my 116,834 shares (which I know isn't much) i came to terms with the fact that, that money might as well be gone... Lets face it, this kind of stock the way it is now can go straight through floor... but instead of focusing on the negative.. (since i already counted my $ as gone) .. I prefer to see that this stock can skyrocket through the roof...
There has been a lot discussion about the UnderArmour + Muscle Pharm collabo... myself included became sucked into this whirlpool of here say.. but lets compare these 2 companies.. shall we...
if you havent already do a little wiki visit.. and check out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Under_Armour
^^^ notice where UA came from... founded in January 1996... look at how they spread... word of mouth, then a USA today article... then they made their FIRST PROFIT in 1998.... thats 2 years for all you math heads! with very limitied exposure until the movie it was featured in..
NOW THEY ARE @$80/SHARE!!!!! UA was founded in 1996, showed first profit in 1998 and went public in 2005!!!!! they had time to air out their dirty laundry and get there $h!t together..! and lets be honest there is virtually no competition for UA ....... if you even consider thinking of Ridell or that stupid @$$ dry-fit crap from walmart as competition then you should swan dive off the high board into an empty swimming pool.... <<<sorry carried away...
then comes along Muscle Pharm.. founded in 2010, ipo'd in 2010, and now they are airing out their dirty laundry... yeah they were acquired by tone in twenty but that was more a personal trainer company.. not a supplement/athletic product company... Not only do they some some of the same products of UA but they also sell supplements... UA does not... I for one have used both UA and MP compression gear.. i unbiasedly believe MP's is much better, from texture to fit... I have sweaters from both.. and once again.. MP wins... i also use MP's supplements and guess what.... THEY WORK!!!... MP has only been around for ONE year and they are stealing the supplement industry... and going after the UA giant... Who knows how shitty UA's financial house was before they IPO'd.... oh well... they had 9 years to clean up... MP is learning their lessons in 1 - 1.5 years....
I honestly believe that if UA doesn't look at MP as a rival, or as a situation that they need to contain then they aren't as smart as they seem and are just riding on the sole fact that they are the only business in town... NEWSFLASH! not any more ladies....
Let me just say i'm not pro-trader, or an accountant, or special anything when it comes to stock... but I do know potential when i see it.. i know an outstanding product when i use it... I'm tired of reading the same bad stuff over and over... yeah they diluted their shares, and yeah they spent some money.. .but hey they make money to stay in shape and look good and they partied... alright shame on them.. whatever.. they made a mistake... i feel if we start here with the next financial report to see this turn around, that it will take off and all the haters that criticized will say damnnnn i should have listened to that overly optimistic noob .... and hey if they dont... we all bought the stock knowing the risks... so $% it!!! :)
I would love to hear everyones thoughts on this... and if all you wanna do is say dilution this and spent that.. then we've heard it we know... gimme another reason why they will fail... i dare you!
oh and i've already recruited about 4 or 5 others to buy shares as well.... what have you done for MP?
:) gnight yall!
MusclePharm + Underarmour... I know its probably been discussed on here, but I'm seeing more talk on the Y! boards.... What are everyones thoughts on this? Is this just someone trying to build hype or could this be an actual evolution?!... Also this guy is stating for this to happen by the end of Q4 soo whether it be 2011 or 2012 we will know within @45days... i have a nice chunk of shares and if there is some legitimacy to this it will affect at what price i sell ofcourse...
Also, thank you for the reply Tank.. I appreciate it.. just doing my research..
Does anyone see this stock breaking the "penny stock" mold of reaching the $5 and beyond range? Please explain why yes or no.. Also.. Since we're talking about projected growth.. What are everyones goals for this stock as far as short, med, long term.. as far as pps.... This is my first stock, and the learning curve is steep but i'm keepin up.. school me.... please.
NECESSARY SPENDING... Would it be out of line to say that the spending is a viable, necessary evil? You have to spend money to make money.. You have to have product awareness... is it possible that the spending has gone in the form of advertisements, contracts, and deals?
To me all of this spending has set the stage for tonight... The product is out there.. on the market, ready for purchase about to be shoved in the faces of millions of viewers who are going to say hmmmm MP lets look at it.... try it out.. Not to mention the people who will see a UFC fight for the first time on Network television, visit ufc webpage, and under shop/supplement there is a direct link to MP...
I see a lot of people talking about MP putting info out on facebook... saying its a bad thing.. well that information was released on facebook and now it is being discussed in an investing blog website.. doesnt seem dumb... facebooks worth is what $20B... I dont think its just for stalking your ex girlfriend any more guys.. Just about every company in the world generating a profit has a facebook page, and they even tell people to visit them on facebook.. Why not put good news like that on FB? I will be anxious to see how many likes they have after the weekend, right now they are sitting at 40,274 fans... lets see what the end of next week holds...
I do agree with everyone about spending.... now that the advertisement is in place, lets see them cut that spending.... Once their product is recognized as top of line( as if it isnt there already) advertisement spending can be cut dramatically...
