Ive never even heard of the stuff. Now ive heard of the bath ones the makes people eat other peoplesface off. Watched a episode of intervention one night of a guy on bath and it was scary and sad at the same time. How could anyone watch that and ever be like damn let me try that. " im pretty sure the 2 aren't the same".

I've used Nose Tork which is like smelling salt on steroids. To indicate how powerful the stuff is, here's a personal anecdote from when I powerlifted. I was prescribed Depakote, a mood stabilizer, and I was a couple weeks into it. The stuff is garbage; killed my intensity and locked my fight or flight toggle in the neutral position. I couldn't generate any aggression with heavy weights and struggled more and more day by day. One day was very sad; failed a warm up on the bench that I usually get no problem. So I busted out the Tork, which I used sparingly, put my nose in it and BOOM. Welcome back hatred and aggression. Got my warm up then matched a PR. So, in conclusion, the stuff works very well for what it's supposed to do, locking your fight or flight switch firmly in the "fight" position. And fuck Depakote. Dropped it that day.

Since I stopped powerlifting I haven't had any reason to use it. Not sure why a bodybuilder would need it.
