Once upon a time, TikTok was a place for weirdly infectious dances, memes, and comedy sketches. Nowadays, you can’t load the app without being bombarded with a barrage of sales pitches for the TikTok shop.
I’m not sure if it’s just the algorithm pushing gym-related content my way or if everyone’s For You page is on the same vibe, but supplements seem to be particularly popular with the have-a-go sellers.
It’s amazing how many expert nutritionists come out of the woodwork when there’s a bit of commission involved, isn’t it?
If you’re sick of people who clearly aren’t even part of the gym community trying to peddle products your way and want some proper advice, there’s really only one place to go: CSN Supplements.
With a vast catalogue of brands and products at competitive prices, CSN Supplements, or Cardiff Sports Nutrition, to give it its full name, is your ultimate one-stop shop for all store cupboard essentials.
Here’s why I love it, and why I think you will too.
Brands, Brands, and More Brands!
Based in Cardiff, CSN Supplements stands as the city’s only dedicated sports nutrition store, offering top brands at prices that will make you double-take.
Over time, CSN has built a huge online following, with scores of gym rats like myself regularly hitting up its website to build the ultimate supplement stash.
Why’s it so popular? One word: transparency. Sure, CSN has its own line of supplements, but they’ve got experts ready to guide you to the perfect products at the best prices.
And that help is always appreciated when there’s so much to choose from. CSN’s website boasts over 100 brands, featuring heavy hitters like Applied Nutrition, Ghost Lifestyle, Grenade, Optimum Nutrition, and USN.
I know what you’re thinking, ‘Why wouldn’t you just buy direct?’
Remember what I said about transparency? Every brand out there will swear by their products, right? It’d be kinda weird if they didn’t.
Think of CSN as your personal advisor, a voice of reason in the midst of all the promotions.

Specials Galore
When you shop through CSN Supplements, there’s one thing you’re guaranteed: specials. There are literally pages upon pages of supplements available at a fraction of the usual price.
I’m absolutely obsessed with Grenade’s legendary Carb Killa protein bars. Honestly, no other bar even comes close in terms of taste and texture, in my humble opinion.
I’m almost reluctant to spill the beans, but here it is: CSN is currently selling them for just 99p a bar. That’s well over a pound cheaper than you can pick them up in any supermarket.
I almost want to keep it a secret so I can buy them all for myself, but hey, I’m committed to sharing the love with you lovely lot.
And there are plenty of similar amazing pickups to be had. Just last month, CSN got its hands on 10 short-dated tubs of Ghost Vegan Banana Pancake Batter protein and listed them at half price.
My latest obsession? Checking in on CSN’s socials to see what the latest deal is – I just love it. There’s nothing better than snagging my favourite products for less or trying out new ones that I wouldn’t usually do because of the price tag.
Talking about products, CSN has everything you need and more to achieve your fitness goals, whatever they may be.
To state the obvious, there’s protein galore, from your standard whey protein blends to mass gainer shakes and meal replacements.
But CSN’s offerings go far beyond that. You can grab everything from Creatine and BCAAs to sleep aids and nut butter. There’s even a dedicated section for bodybuilders.
A New Dawn

If you’ve been keeping up, you’ll have noticed that CSN has recently teamed up with Nutrivend. What does that mean?
Well, both brands have pledged that their new partnership will bring an even wider range of products and services, which can only be good news for deal hunters like you and me.
Whatever the future holds, one thing is certain: if you’re in need of proper advice and top-notch supplements, CSN is the place to go.
