When I was in just filling up my supplements and he tried to tell me
"You know you shouldn't really eat any solid food until dinner, or your metabolism won't get started as fast as everyone else. Just 2 protein shakes, for breakfast and lunch before each workout."
Guy was really trying to tell me to workout each day before I've even eaten anything..
Also suggesting skipping meals.

Bully. He was just trying to help.

Nothing wrong with fasted training or meal skipping as that's largely a preferential thing. But it's certainly not necessary by any means.
Lastly, you are a good human being and I bet you smell like flowers. I am not personally attacking you in this thread. Have a nice day!0 -
People still go to GNC? I thought we all knew supplements are cheaper online! Ok I lied I go there and act like I need held and say I will be back when I get paid .... free samples O YEAH! works almost every time ;-)0

What kind of flowers? Are you insinuating that she smells like a bad flower? Some people on this site are so rude.0 -

I am so sorry for this misunderstanding. Perhaps I could meet you at the juice bar where I will buy you a tasty beverage? I know the manager.0 -

I'm allergic to flowers. Is he trying to KILL me??0 -
Hahaha! I happen to smell lovely, and I understand he was just trying to sell things. Usually I do workout without eating much, and not in the mood to eat after but some people pass out if they have nothing in them!When I was in just filling up my supplements and he tried to tell me

Meh, maybe in the US but here in Canada there isn't a big difference. Plus I like having it the day I bought it.
I am a gold card member and they have decent sales every week. I just buy what I like when it's 50% off. It's on sale enough that I never have to pay full price.0 -
He did give me an entire box of protein shakes for free and $10 off..

I actually have been wanting to go into GNC but haven't gotten the courage yet, simply because I don't want that to happen. I hate it when people tell me what to do or buy in stores when I didn't ask for their advice.0

No need to be afraid. *Its ok to say no*. Just remember, take what they say with a grain of salt. Whenever they ask me if I need help I tell them no thanks. Once I have decided on what product I want I may ask for opinions on taste on what I am interested in (because I mostly buy protein powder). If they start getting any deeper than taste, my brain just shuts down (ie absorbaility, pre - or post workout etc) Whatever they try to upsell at cash I say no thanks0 -
I'd say skip GNC0
-
Yes now that I took the online suggestion ive already found what I buy at a lower price.

The only reason I go into GNC is to take their free vitamin samples and clown on their employees for all the BS supplements that they are taking themselves.0
