  • **FULL DISCLOSURE: This particular GNC is a regular sponsor of my weightlifting club's events (Olympia Weightlifting Club, Mesa, AZ), frequently providing prizes in forms of gift certificates and supplements. That connection has absolutely no influence on my review.** You know what? Normally, I loathe establishments like GNC. Instant turn off by the sales sharks and the number one reason I'd rather just buy online. Typical scene at any supplement store: Me: *Walks into the store to replenish my Branch Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) and protein bars.* Sales Person: Cue assault of a guy like THIS trying to sell me a bunch of crap I don't need and/or can't take: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmmZULPUEkQ Me: "Dude, piss off!" *quickly runs out!* Heck, I had a $25 Gift Certificate from a competition in won in February of 2015 I held onto for over a year to avoid the aforementioned nonsense. Read that again: Held onto FREE MONEY for 16 months to avoid asshattery! I ran out of my Xtend BCAAs and could not wait for a shipment from Amazon or Bodybuilding.com. *Grumble, grumble, call the GNC, yes, they carry the Xtend brand, woohoo!* I walked in here on a Saturday afternoon and was greeted by the owner Shannon and her daughter, Ashley and quickly learned that this is a family owned franchise. Ashley quickly helped me located the Xtend products. I was pretty bummed they didn't have any of the 90-day supply tubs in stock, or the Green Apple flavor, but was able to grab two 30-day supply tubs and try two new flavors: Grape and Blue Raspberry. Presented my $25 Gift Certificate at the counter, where Shannon told Ashley, "Whoa, this girl is a BADASS - She won one of Istvan's competitions!" The entire time I was here, there was no pressure to buy or hawking me as I looked around. Have a feeling my online supplement ordering days are over. Highly recommend you check out this GNC for any of your supplementation needs - It will mostly likely be a refreshing experience compared to any others you have had. No BroScienceLife guys. Pinky swear!
