The most important factor for being in the best shape you possibly can be getting your diet and workout routine in order. But sometimes eating right and working out hard still don’t get you all the way to where you want to be. When that’s the case, it’s time to start looking into bodybuilding supplements like pre workouts, muscle builders, creatine, and/or protein.

If you’re new to the world of supplements, navigating your way through can be a daunting task. And that’s why we’re here to help wade through the BS and help you figure out what you need, what works, and what’s just a waste of time and money.

If you’ve started your search online, you’ve probably come across products you can try for “free.” They look like a fantastic deal. Try out a full bottle and don’t pay anything unless you like it. But when you look a little closer, you’ll see they’re not all they promise to be.

Pro Factor T-2000 is one of these free trial products. I recently had a reader ask me to look into it for him. I did, and here’s what I found.

What Is Pro Factor T-2000?

Pro Factor T-2000 positions itself as a pre workout supplement focuses on boosting Nitric Oxide levels in your body. That’s a good thing. Nitric oxide functions as a vasodilator, opening up blood vessels to allow an increased amount of blood to flow through. The more blood flowing through your veins, the more oxygen and nutrients can be delivered to your muscles during your toughest workouts, allowing you to work harder, recover stronger, and get better results..

The benefits they tell you to expect include:

• Increased energy and focus.
• Boosted Strength.
• Delayed muscle fatigue.
• Greater endurance.
• Improved muscle recovery.

In fact, according to them you can expect to see a 35% increase in muscle mass from nothing else other then using their product.

Pro Factor T-2000 Ingredients

The Pro Factor T-2000 website doesn’t disclose an entire ingredients list, but it mentions the three most important components: L-Arginine, L-Citrulline, and L-Norvaline.

• L-Arginine is a precursor to nitric oxide. That means the more l-arginine in your body, the more nitric oxide. And the more nitric oxide, the more blood flowing through your blood vessels. You’ll look more vascular, you’ll get better pumps, and your muscles will get the oxygen and nutrients they need to work harder and repair more fully. L-Argnine also helps stimulate the natural production of HGH (Human Growth Hormone) to help with both energy and new muscle growth.
• L-Citrulline delays the onset of fatigue during your toughest workouts by helping to remove excess ammonia produced as a by-product when muscles work hard. Excess L-Citrulline can also lead to increased L-Arginine (and then Nitric Oxide).
• L-Norvaline which prevents the breakdown of L-Arginine, leaving it to be used to produce nitric oxide.

It’s worth noting that I’ve seen a few third party websites that provide a list of ingredients. I don’t put a lot of faith in these sites because they list Creatine as an ingredient, while the official Pro Factor T-2000 website specifically states that it does not contain either Creatine or stimulants.

How To Use Pro Factor T-2000

The instructions say to take 2 Pro Factor T-2000 capsules with water about 30 minutes before workout. There’s no indication whether or not you should take it on non-workout days, but in my experience, it’s best to take NO boosting supplements daily.

Where To Buy

Here’s where we’ll talk about that free trial offer we briefly mentioned above. They make a big to do about how you can try Pro Factor T-2000 risk free by getting a free bottle, but the truth is it’s anything but free.

You start out by paying a small shipping fee of $4.95. (This is how they get your credit card number.) For that, they send you a full 30 day supply bottle of Pro Factor T-2000 to try for 14 days. The 14 days begins the day you place your order, not the day you receive it.

If you like it, do nothing. On the 14th day, they’ll charge you $89.95 for the “free” bottle you already have, and they’ll sign you up to receive a new bottle at that full price every month from then on.

It may not seem so bad on the surface except for a few small details. The $89.95 price is very high. You can get good quality supplements for a lot less than that. Also, the terms of the trial are hidden in the very small print and in the Terms and Conditions page that they know nobody reads. They are deliberately trying to deceive you into thinking that all you’re paying and all you will be paying is $4.95.

Here’s a quick snapshot of their terms and conditions if you’ve skipped over them:

I hear from guys every day that have been sucked into these free trial scams, and are now trying to get hundreds of dollars back from these various companies that use this tactic.

Who Makes Pro Factor T-2000?

We tried to look into the company to see what we could find out. They’re called ProFactor Muscle, Inc, and they’re based in the Los Angeles, California area. The Better Business Bureau gives them a D+ rating and states that on at least one occasion, they tried to send mail to the company and it was returned by the Post Office. While this doesn’t shed a whole lot of light on what’s going on, it does make you question the reputability of the company.

Pro Factor T-2000 Pros and Cons

Advantages of Pro Factor T-2000

• There are no stimulants, which can be a good thing for guys who don’t like stimmy pre workouts.

Disadvantages of Pro Factor T-2000

• There’s no definitive, complete ingredient list, so it’s not clear what’s in it.
• The company doesn’t have a good reputation with the Better Business Bureau.
• It’s only available through the free trial offer, which turns out to be not free at all. In fact, if you do nothing other than sign up for the free trial, you’ll be charged $89.95 a month indefinitely.

Conclusion

First off, there’s nothing particularly special about Pro Factor T-2000 as a supplement. What we know of the ingredients is that there are a few decent ones, but we don’t even know if they’re included at effective levels. Without information about amounts, we don’t know if there’s enough to make a difference or if there’s only a dusting so they can claim it’s in there.

Then take into consideration the free trial offer. It’s nothing but a deceptive scam to get you signed up for repeated billing. I have lots of guys ask me how they get away with this. My answer is always the same. It’s dirty, but it’s legal. As long as they explain the terms and don’t use certain wording that can legally be called an outright lie, they are not breaking any laws. But they do break the trust of their customers. In the end, they don’t really care about that. They figure there will always be new customers they can trick into a few months of billing before moving on to the next victim.

If you haven’t already guessed my recommendation, I’ll give it to you straight. Don’t buy Pro Factor T-2000.
