Any chance you guys could get a good cordyceps in bulk?

[poison]

Or in pill, if it's not too expensive. Preferable of the CS-4 variety, as that's what's used in the studies.

Planetary Formulas Cordyceps 450 looks good and is pretty inexpensive.

I just started using bn's bulk cordyceps, and I'd like to give it a much longer run, but hate ordering from anywhere but NP.

 

[dsade]

I can get the same extract that BN uses pretty easily. How is it working for you?

 

[poison]

It's to soon to say definitively, and i haven't run in several weeks (bulk!bulk!), but I seem to have much faster recovery between sets. Not strength-wise, but breathing, say, with squats and deads.

How different is that extract from the CS-4?

 

[dsade]

I haven't looked into CS-4. Let me check really quick.

 

[P01Shooter]

A guy I know who cycles, hikes, does mountain rescue, etc, etc, swears by this stuff for endurance. I'd be very interested as well.

 

[poison]

Nice! Hey, it's got a TON of cardio benefits, and it's cheap enough, I'd make it a staple.

 

[ugab37]

I think I read somewhere that it can lower your resting heartrate. Is that right? (or am i retarted)

 

[poison]

Well, if you're using oxygen more efficiently, sure, I guess it could.

Millennium Sport Cordygen5 and Cordyn3 look good. I've got samples on the way.

 

[Outside Backer]

id be all over this

 

[dsade]

Got a price coming...looks like standardized for polysaccharides is the way to go judging by studies.

 

[poison]

Some of this is interesting:

Millennium Sport

I can't cut and paste, but it give a rundown of the actives, and the culturing process.

 

[poison]

Got my Millennuim Sport samples. I asked for samples of Cordygen5; instead I got a little envelope crammed with about 15 sample baggies of 5-6 different products. Sweet!

Looking forward to trying the Cordygen.

 

[dsade]

Who did you contact for samples? Great link, BTW...I sent it to my Chinese contact. I am very interested in this.

 

[poison]

Email [email protected] . Be sure to include name, address, and what you'd like to sample. I forget the guys name, I deleted my email. Oh, and he included a coupon for January for 35% off with free shipping. I may buy some stuff and use it, and log here.

Check this stuff out too:

Millennium Sport

 

[poison]

Check this, apparently Cordygen5 is highly concentrated from 5 forms of cordyceps, and Cordyn3 is a less concentrated, full spectrum extract of 3 types of cordyceps (scroll down to the FAQ's):

Muscle Supplements - Millennium Sport Technologies

Holy hell, I just worked out an hour after taking Citruvol and Cordygen5, nothing else. I've never experienced a pump like this. I had lots of energy to push out an extra rep.

Impressive, far more than I expected.

 

[bioman]

I've used BAC's bulk cordyceps and it's pretty good. No idea what the composition is but it jacks me up pretty well, gives an endurance boost, great pumps and scarey erections lol.

I'd be down for some bulk if NP carries it.

 

[poison]

Yeah, it wasn't energy, like a stim; more like when you first go on creatine. Extra juice.

 

[bioman]

For me, it must jack up cAMP pretty hard because even at doses around 500-700mg per day it makes me edgy. The effects on libido are pretty significant.


I used it and AP prior to a hike up a pretty steep mountain and I was flyin'.

 

[poison]

Really? Where are you getting your product?

 

[poison]

Bioman, you weren't kidding about the libido. Ungh-ungh. :huh:

 

[Outside Backer]

i want i want

 

[verner]

any word on this dsade?

 

[dsade]

Yep...I got a decent price out of China. Going to try and budget it in.

Standardized for 50% polysaccharides.

 

[poison]

Did you get my forwarded email, dsade?

 

[dsade]

Did you get my forwarded email, dsade?

Sure didn't...can you resend?

 

[poison]

Headed your way. Let me know when you get it.

 

[DAdams91982]

SOLD... well when capped.

[poison]

Not sure how a more potent extract tastes, but BN's cordyceps is not bad, and totally invisible in chocolate whey.

 

[dsade]

Headed your way. Let me know when you get it.

Got it....I DID get this before and forwarded it on to be looked into.

For starters I want to get some samples of the 50% product...it is MUCH more potent than the standard product offered.

 

[poison]

Cool, just wanted to throw that in there. I'll try whatever you end up picking up, for sure.

 

[dsade]

I will get comparison stats, but I think this new stuff is around 10 times as strong

 

[poison]

Bring it!

 

[dingling]

I just got samples from Millenium (the guy seems extremely nice, btw). I'll be doing a very short cardio session tonight and will report back.

 

[poison]

What are you going to take?

 

[Outside Backer]

mill sports is a gret guy and a great company his citruvol and cordy is very awesome. i want bulk cordy

 

[Ubiquitous]

Not sure how a more potent extract tastes, but BN's cordyceps is not bad, and totally invisible in chocolate whey.

the bulk cordyceps I acquired a year back tasted like death incarnate.

 

[lawnboy246]

Also got some samples of Cordygen5...all I can say is this stuff would be incredible in bulk. Sure makes it hard to wanna leave the gym after taking this stuff. :cheers:

Looking forward to trying the Cordygen.

 

[bioman]

Mine was from BAC. I cap it. Can't roll with chewing on catepillar fungus..synthetic or not, lol.

Look forward to trying NP's.

 

[DAdams91982]

Just need to echo what he said.... For emphasis!!!

Adams

 

[dsade]

Definitely capped. This extract I just got is 10 times more potent than the other Cordy on the market.

 

[musclepigg]

Sounds interesting. Does cordyceps have to be cycled?

 

[dsade]

Sounds interesting. Does cordyceps have to be cycled?

Not sure....anyone?

 

[Outside Backer]

I wouldnt think so

is it an adaptogen? i dont see why you couldnt cycle it. if the effects lessen over time


now about this 10 times more potent extract

mayboe contact millenium sports about teh cycle part

 

[poison]

Awesome, dsade! repped!!

I've never heard any mention of a need to cycle. I'll check in the next day or two.

 

[bioman]

Very cool. I don't think cycling is necessary. I have never run it for extended lengths of time though. I usually quit after 3-5 days because I started getting too edgy/aggressive.

Just did my first cardio session since the really stressful holidays (our baby was born, all the family visited, wife got sick, I got sick yadda yadda) after taking about 700 mg of cordy today. Felt like a million bucks. An extract that's 10X stronger is almost a scarey thought.

 

[poison]

congrats on the baby, bud! i have an 8mo (and a 4yo). it's a blast

 

[Outside Backer]

19month old boy checkin in here

terrible 2's starting early and 2 yr molars working itself out

sleepless nights are the norm lol

 

[dingling]

I've tried the millenium citruvol sample earlier this week, which is cordy with citrulline, and I really liked it during a half-hour light cardio session. I tried the cordygen5 tonight, which is just straight cordyceps extract and once again had a great second wind during cardio.

Can't wait for it to come out in bulk... combined with citrulline and you're money.
