OK, I was yelping around and so happened to run into an ignorant review. It is obvious like every business has it's positives and negatives. But just because someone has a negative view about a business, does not necessary mean the business should be rated bad.
Fist of all, I've been in the fitness world about half of my life (15 years) and have visited many nutritional places around town and out of town, in fact, I'm a big fan of nutritional supplements and I can say I know what's good out there. I can also say I'm very Knowledgeable about nutrition and diets. Like the other review says, I walked in this small nutritional shop "Ultimate Sports Supplements", since I see a lot of their customers looked apart from the others, in the gyms around Chula Vista.
First, I was impressed with all the variety of products in this store. The store was not filled with only one brand products like the franchise stores around town. These franchises manufacture their own product and they so called them to be the best it the country.. LOL... I've never even heard of these products before I walked into those stores (nutri-shop, nutrition zone, gnc, etc) that's how you get ripped off because they sell you these products at full retail price because you can only get them there and of course are bootleg products. Ultimate Sports Supplements carries brand name products that are nation wide known and are proven to work by professional athletes.
I was also impress with their employees, not only they look fit, but they're full of knowledge. They are bodybuilders themselves, of course they're going to look apart, they practice what they preach. Unlike the stores around town(nutri-shop, nutrition zone, gnc) who have people who don't even look like they stay fit themselves and have a very tiny Knowledge about nutritional products or dieting.
When I walked into Ultimate Sports Supplements, I knew exactly what I was looking for but I wanted to pick their brains to make sure they were not trying to sell me something I did not need like the other stores do. Sure enough, they just offer what I needed at that time. They also went out of their way and set up a personal meal plan according to my needs. They even offer to help me with some weight training free of charge (of course at their own time). No other store will go out of their way for you...
They also have other products franchises don't have. Products that these franchises used to sell because they were allowed to, but all of the sudden because they can't sell them, now makes these products bad for you, please, give me a break. Everything could be bad for you if you abuse it. They don't sell anything illegal. If you do your research about pro-hormones, they are not illegal like the other review says. Three pro-hormone compounds were banned this year, Ultimate Sports Supplements does not have or sell any illegal or banned substances.
One thing I also noticed while in the store, they like to support and sponsor local athletes and different teams. I've seen all the pictures signed by thankful community members.
Prices are very decent, they are very competitive with the stores around town and if they are a buck or two more, but I will pay the extra buck for their knowledge and service. It's well worth it. They will not sell me something I do not need and I will be getting quality products. They will beat any price if you shop somewhere else. If they did all that for me, I'm sure they have done it for hundreds of satisfied Ultimate customers.
We all have busy lives, but I just wanted to take a little bit of my time to write this review for Ultimate Sports Supplements compared to the endless hours they have invested in me for my body and health. They are well deserving.
Try it for yourself. I'll guarantee you'll be satisfied with the service and knowing you're getting the best advice around town. read more
