ALCAR

[WhatsaRoid?]

Caffeine makes me sleepy and Alcar keeps me up. :/ anyway I'm also leaning out but I'm going to keep taking alcar for a year and see how low of bf I can go on it.

Keep taking it then.

Tons of people take supps that dont work for their supposed purpose, otherwise glutamine wouldnt have nearly as large of a following as it does for bodybuilding purposes

glutamine has its uses when severly overtraining- like when getting ready for a contest or extreme intense training. -has other benefits as well- soothes the srtomach - that said I take it when I am sick or over trained or in pre contest

as far as L-carnitine helping with fatloss, do you believe more muscle helps with fat loss?

Back when i took alcar for 2 years strait @ 3 grams daily I took it before my first meal-its great before cardio as well alcar (or any l-cartinine) in my opinion plus cla is a nice stack (I havent used cla in years although i still think its effective)

*I was 220lbs back then- 5-7 years ago so of course take into weight into account-that is why i took 3 grams instead of 2. but yeah 2-3 grams is a good dose depending on your weight. Some days I took 6 grams - 3 and 3 split before work(i worked as a bouncer back then) and got a brain buzz out of this world
