I've used Muscle Milk Light before with good results and I thought it was palatable as well (the Cookies and Cream flavor). I used Cell-Tech once upon a time and tried Lipo 6x as a fat burner to try and get a little extra kick (waste of money IMO). After dropping supplements altogether for about 6 months and being much more mindful of my diet, I'm back near my peak strength except about 25 lbs. lighter. Heard good things about noXplode and the Syntrax sounds interesting, but I'm happy with my results sans supplements.

I usually use NO-Xplode. I've tried that in combination with BSN's Cell Mass and didn't notice any significant gains.

I've also tried Beverly International products and think they started to work. I didn't stay on them too long as they are expensive!
