First, I'd like to appoligize beforehand about any potentail rambling and if I posted this in the wrong section . . . it is my first post and should probably be 2 separate ones.
Main question: about how long of a waiting period do I need to take between the Natabolic stack and Trifecta stack?
With my main question out of the way, I'd like to comment on my experience with Natadrol. I had taken a certain Gaspari product (which will remain nameless . . . starts with an "H" though) about a month after a bad ankle injury that kept me laying around for nearly a month with the hopes that it would help me make up any losses while I laid around like a bum. The Gaspari product caused a weight gain of 13 lbs and a staggering 4% jump in body fat (measured through bioelectrical impedance, not calipers; appears to have messed with the scale's H2O measurements as well. I weigh first thing in the morning to help control for variables such as food and liquid intake). The Gaspari product was taken 20 days before Natadrol. I started Natadrol immediately following the Gaspari product and have 2 or 3 days left before I start Formadrol. Through the entire cycle, I've been taking 6/day as follows: 2 at approximately 6am, another 2 around 11:30 or noon and my final 2 between 4 and 4:30pm (about an hour before my usual weekday workouts).
I began Natadrol April 27th,, a day short of 2 months after my injury.
The first week on Natadrol, my beginning weight was 156.4 with 18.6% BF and 55% H2O. I'd say that on the second or third day, I began to observe a feeling of increased muscle density . . . maybe density isn't the right word, but I felt as if my muscles were harder. Sadly, that feeling went away; I’m by no means Pillsbury dough boy soft, just normal, maybe a little harder than usual. Recovery time has been great throughout the whole cycle. By the time I finish my post workout shake, I’m ready for more. As another benefit, all residual pain in my ankle went away quickly. I attribute it to the Cissus, as I have used it in the past for sprains and building tendon strength.
Weeks 2 -5 weren’t spectacular as far as noticeable effects. 3 pimples popped up after I took a hiatus from shaving, but I attribute that to sweat lingering on facial hair. Libido was a bit higher than usual.
During these weeks, some workouts got skipped and rearranged; no cardio at all.
On to the results as of now: Last weight in, I was 152.4, 16.5%BF and 57% H2O. What I find strange is that my H2O typically ran around 59% before the Gaspari product. I’m still wondering about the H2O% as well. I’m disappointed by the BF, but even though the scale says 16.5%, I look much more lean and defined than I did at 143lbs and 14%BF.
As far as strength gains, everything has nearly doubled. My favorite part is that my pull up gains have almost quadrupled.
