So GNC announced its Bankrupt today. I remember spending a ton of cash there on various stuff back when I was a teenager and maybe 20-21 (when I didnt know what I was doing). It would be funny to hear the random crap you use to buy from there.

Some of my favorites back when were:

Hydroxycut (with ephedra)
Ripped Fuel (with ephedra)
NO2

Ripped fuel and Mountain Dew got me through many double shifts at work back in the day.

Oddly, the last thing I purchased there was some vitamin a/d/k supplement for my wife that is prescribed to her by a physician.

Back in the day it was EAS Creatine and Animal Pak Vitamins that I purchased from them. Oh, and we can't forget the ephedra laced Ultimate Orange pre-workout! It's amazing that I made it to 47 just based on the Ultimate Orange that I drank in my 20s.

Suprised nobody mentioned Cell Tech, chromium, anabolic mega packs or Weider protein powder. Probably too old for some.....

I use to take cell tech. That shit was crazy good when it first came out.

Yeah, it used to be the best Creatine on the market during that time. Freshman year of high school and constant weight training. I made that awesome gains during that time while dropping lots of bodyfat and I was eating everything in sight.
