May sound crazy- Intra-Aid for hunters

Well I have been deer hunting all weekend and I have been using the still hunting method. I have climbed and stalked until I am exhausted, pretty much from daylight until dark. Well, when I got home Saturday evening I was absolutely drained, I lay on the couch and never got up again. Yesterday morning I woke up a bit late and was in a rush and I was searching for something to pakc to eat and it hit me, why not mix up 2 bottles of Intra-Aid and carry instead of a load of grub. So I took two bottles of Intra-Aid and 1 thermos of thick chicken noodle soup with me. I sipped the Intra-Aid all day long when I would stop for a bit. I moved all day long and never fatigued any! On my way out of the woods I was coming down the hollow and spotted a Husafel Stone and I up ended it and tried to pick it up, all this after climbing all day in the wind and freezing cold. best of all I felt fine when I got home and could have turned around and went right back.

I know it sounds nuts, but this stuff may have more applications than what my simple mind was thinking. just a suggestion, if anyone has something like this coming along, try 2 bottles of it and see if you don't notice a difference. Red Bull....Red BullShit is what it should be called. I think Animal could have a simliar market with their Intra-Aid product.

Great study F! I know some people who sip on it all day long by tossing it in a gallon jug. It's definitely good stuff and interesting to hear its other applications that people use it for!

In all honesty it really surprised me. I had to take today off because I had to baby sit for the old lady for awhile so I couldn't put it to the test again today. I will be hitting it tomorrow though! I can tell you this too, mountain climbing and stalking is killer exercise, I love it!

My training is sort of slow right now due to deer season and work but I'll be back to it in a week or two. I am going to try to do an Intra-Aid, Pump, and EEA cycle and log soon. I would like to try the Animal Test but the way my joints and stuff take a beating I am a little hesitant.

When you sending me some venison?

I loved Animal Test when I ran it and never had any joint issues... however I was taking Flex as well...

so whats the real deal- I thought I read that you should limit consumption of EFAs and stuff while taking AA? This may not be correct as its been awhile since I studied up on it.

I know I maybe the odd ball around this place, but I swear I am not as big on huge doses of EFAs anyway. Just enough will do me, as I'd rather eat lots of good saturated fat from eggs, meat, milk and cheese!

Thumbs up Good read...

It doesn't sound crazy to me at all F. In fact, when you consider what IA was made for it makes perfect sense. I still stand by my statement that IA is perfect for any kind of physical activity. It's active body fuel.

I have heard some of the arguments both ways. When I was taking test, I was timing my EFAs at different times than when I was taking my test... so around 2-3 hour difference just to be sure.

x2. I am using Animal Test right now. I workout either AM or evening. So if I take my Test in the AM then my Omega goes down with dinner. Likewise if i workout in the evening and take my Test pre-wo then my Omega goes down with breakfast that day. The AA in the Test has kicked in quite well for me so I know this is working fine.

What does the AA feel like exactly? I'm just not sure supplements like the Animal Test really goes along with my long slow type progression is another reason why I am hesitant about supplements like this anymore. I think liver and aminos along with Intra-Aid and Pump would work best for me over a long term cycle of say 3-6 months...but hell I don't know for sure. First off I just gotta get back in the gym! I'm going to try and get started back Sunday but we'll see as I have to have a dang mole take off my leg tomorrow and the doc said I would have a few stitches in it. Sucks getting old when you start growing off things all over your body and you have to keep an eye on them.

For us "non-teenage" people Animal Test is a wonder product. It works well for anyone over 21 of course but as you get older and your Test levels drop off as well as your ability to generate GH,... products like this help out even more. Basically, we older folk put the shine on them.

AA does a myriad of things. You should read up on it before deciding if you want to try it or not. The biggest thing that you actually "feel" is your increased response to your training. You may be a bit more sore than normal while using it but that is because of what it is doing. This in turn spurs the body's heal and grow response and helps you to pack on more lean muscle mass than you would without it when combined with a good high cal high protein diet.

Another wonder product that also shines extra well for us older guys is Animal Stak. And of course stacking them both together is considered the ultimate Test boost cycle since both products work in different ways to boost your free and usable Test levels.

That said, nothing can replace proper diet, exercise and rest cycles. These are a top #1 must. The supplements just give you that edge to go a little bit further. Plus they are fun LOL!

Agreed on all accounts. I felt the AA kicking in when I was sore as hell after workouts...

Yep. I like to think that I push myself as hard as I can when in the gym. The AA just helps you get even more than you would be able to get without it. That, in a nutshell, is the whole point of good supplementation.
