CP:Well, two of the big things we are doing over here involve the use
of injectable L-Carnosine, and intravenous infusions ofVitamin-C.
These natural substances can both be very anabolic when applied in
the right way.
WL: So what does it involve?
CP:With the carnosine,we do site specific intramuscular injections
into the muscle group that an athlete is about to train.Vitamin C is a
bolus infusion that we do a few times a week max. It may sound odd
to hear such basic things being raved about,but I must say,both of these
programs work extremely well for being natural performance-enhancing
methods...[/b]

...WL:Have you been able to put numbers on some of the gains that you
have seen?
CP: I would say that it probably gives you a 25% advantage over
training naturally...

WL:That’s substantial!
CP: Basically.Hypertrophy is total volume of work,done at an intensity
maintained at, at least, 70% of max. That’s why carnosine favors
hypertrophy.The only problem is that we usually do the program with
the Vitamin C therapy, so it’s hard to say which one did what.But I’ve
done on myself either LC or the Vitamin C therapy.The advantage of
the Vitamin C is a reduction in body fat,if you were to choose between
the two.
Actually,guys with 6% body fat,who are already quite lean,with
twice a week of just adding the Vitamin C therapy, can go to 2.8. This
is with no change in diet or anything.
WL:So,Vitamin C is something we’re going to see competitive bodybuilders
take an interest in?
CP: Yeah, I’ve got my Throwers doing it now. They find they’re
already lean, but their speed will go up because they are getting even
leaner. I think more competitive athletes will do that.Bodybuilders too.
WL:What about side-effects? Do you see any serious risks with these
techniques?
CP: No,none at all really.There can be a lowering of blood sugar with
Vitamin C that we need to watch with some clients.They are both natural
and very safe techniques.

Anyone tried doing either the vit. C or the Carnosine?
