Adderall and staying lean and muscular
Posted 09-09-2009 at 09:04 PM by theface
I copied and pasted this from one of my posts, I figured that anyone else that takes Adderall and wishes to look like the alpha male would benefit from it. Enjoy 
I've been dealing with this question for 5 years lol. At first, yes, I thought that Adderall was deteriorating my physique. However, I think that the most that it will do is cause you to up your caloric intake, especially protein in terms of macro-nutrients, 250-550 calories per day; depending on your body type of course. Personally, I found that staying properly hydrated and supplementing with things that are known for recovery and elevating natural testosterone levels are key. Also, giving yourself a day break and allowing cheat days are a must. Basically, I found that Adderall use can sometimes cause your body to mimic symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome. Heavy Adderall use can induce adrenal fatigue syndrome; which is why I constantly take products to battle adrenal fatigue. When on cycle, my gains are leaner, but I always run the risk of over training. I feel like that Adderall can quicken the symptoms of an over trained physique. For example, when you over train your body, you start to pump out cortisol like crazy because you are putting it under so much stress. Adderall it self puts your body under stress because it is artificially hyping up many of your body's functions that would not be otherwise stimulated. I consider myself an expert in this field and have done countless and countless hours of research on this topic because I get paid to take my shirt off; which sounds cool but I have been embarrassed when my physique drastically slacked due to over training, cortisol, and Adderall induced depression.
