Thanks for the info! So what if you take this 2 tabs/day for 5 days a week and 2 off? Would it have the same effect as taking it 4 weeks on/4 weeks off? Then your body wouldnt get used to it and you could effectively continue this without taking 4 weeks off. Also, what would be the point of taking ANY steriod if you could increase your testosterone naturally with this product? Is it because you get more gains? Another question why aren't the natural test boosters more popular i.e. trib, tongkat ali, ZMA etc? Are they not as effective? I know t-911 has estrogen inhibitors but would taking natural test boosters with chrysin be just as effective? I know I know so many questions, but as mentioned I am a newbie!! Thanks again for the info
I really dont have any information for you on tribulus or tongkat ali, as ive never taken them, therefore never researched them. i take Biotest's ZMA before bed most nights- it seems to help me calm down and get to bed. i cant say that i would call it a test booster though. it more or less helps to replace some minerals that are commonly deficient in strength-training athletes (aka, people that lift weights regularly, and intelligently i would say). if i were to just casually explain to someone what ZMA does, i would probably say: "when you're working out hard, you're causing a stress on the body, and its not your time in the gym, creating the stress when you grow. your body needs to repair that stress during sleep/rest, that's when you grow. in order to rest and grow properly, you want the hormones responsible for growth at their optimal level. ZMA helps to get those hormones to their
natural optimal levels. its not a steroid, and will not produce steroid-like effects."
as far as why people take steroids, for instance- injecting testosterone, vs. simply taking legal test boosters...its a world of difference. again, this isnt something i can speak from experience about, on the side of steroids, because i have never used them. i have used a couple mild prohormones, and in fact a harsher prohormone back when i was too young to really know what i was doing or reap the full benefits...but anyway, what i can compare is my experience with the prohormones vs. what i have seen first hand in people that ive known to take steroids: i have seen guys blow the F up! there was a skinny guy in my gym, about 6 foot, 175lbs, he was in the gym for a couple months, not making any noticeable progress, then i see hes starting to get friendly with a guy that i knew took steroids. about a month after i noticed these two getting friendly, the skinny guy is now probably close to 200lbs, and looks like he has snakes running up and down his back under his shirt. fast forward about 8-9 months to now recently, saw him about 2 weeks ago, and hes like 230lbs easy. hes still not very strong, pushes 225lbs on bench press about 10-12 times, which i dont think is very strong at all for his size, but hes definitely big now. thats just one example, but ive seen it first hand at least half a dozen times where the dudes just all of a sudden start blowing up- although this guy in particular i just described i would say was the most extreme case ive seen, as he also did not put on a noticeable amount of fat. about 55lbs of mostly muscular gain in less than a year...test boosters- tribulus, T911, alpha male from Biotest, etc...none of these supplements are going to produce that kind of result, because none of them are going to boost your testosterone to the levels that they are when youre injecting it. when youre using these test boosters, they are boosting YOUR body's testosterone level, meaning your natural level. your body keeps producing its own testosterone. with steroids, your body's testosterone production will shut down- youre injecting so much test, that your body realizes it doesnt need to make its own anymore- which is why Post Cycle Therapy is always necessary after anabolic steroid cycles, and HIGHLY recommended for prohormones- but not necessary for natural test boosters- tribulus, T911, alpha male, etc. -->to sum up, injecting testosterone allows you to get a lot more test running through your body, which, more than anything else, increases protein synthesis greatly- this allows your body to take advantage of more protein, food, calories, etc, than it normally would and youll put on muscle at a much faster rate than normal. (this is not to say that steroids are magic- you must put in the hard time at the gym, the long hours with a knife and fork, and get plenty of sleep!).
lastly, as for your questions of cycling T911 at 2/day 5 days a week, then two days off, as opposed to 4 weeks on/4 weeks off...i have mixed feelings about it. i know some other natural test boosters suggest 5 days on/2 days off...but the fact of the matter is, thats not what LG Sciences suggests on T911. i think that it would be ok, but i am not affiliated with the company by any means, and they are the ones with the research under their belts, not me. i would say that if youre using this product on its own, meaning you arent using it as PCT, then maybe you could just give it a try. try your 5 days on, then 2 days off, and see how you feel on the two days off. BUT, i still feel like youre best off running it everyday, then taking 3 weeks or so off of it, then running it full again. i think youll end up getting more bang for your buck doing it that way. my reasoning is that i dont know if that 2 days off will be sufficient to bring your body back down from the T911, in order to fully take advantage of the boost from going back on for 5 days. also, im just personally not all that comfortable with staying on something indefinitely, which is what you sound like youre looking for with the 5/2.
i hope ive helped clear up some confusion. as to your 5/2 dosing question, its interesting, and i dont have a definite answer. i would direct that question to CraigMatthews or LegalGear via a PM. also, id be interested to see the response.
