Big Red's IRON STACK-HPTA/VOLUME

[BigRed1974]

Thanks to thebigt for giving me an opportunity to try and log IronChamps HPTA/VOLUME stack.
I received them this past Friday and started using it on Saturday.

Taking them as recommended. I will be dosing HPTA before my workouts between my pre and post workout meals.
Volume I will be doing 3 am and 1 pm and could increase on nights that I get lucky

Look forward to next few weeks and seeing how this affects me.

My log will be up soon as well.

volume/hpta is a fantastic stack, i am sure you will enjoy it!!!

Volume and HPTA is kicking in full force. Pumps are great and definitely could use a release..lol Was trying to hold out but getting tougher to do so.

I will increase weight on my first two exercises and drop rest time to 40 seconds on my other 3 exercises. Decided to go with higher rep leg press for my knees and so I don't have to use as much weight especially since I am limited at home with how much I can put on.
Definitely starting to feel it today.

Volume/HTPA stack is in full force right now. Pumps are amazing. Legs were swole up after leg press alone.
Just a light breeze and I am at full mast..lol also libido has been pushed to high gear.

I dosed 3 of each pre workout but only dosed 1 volume before bed cause I knew nothing was happening last night. Going to try to stretch it out by doing this a little more. But I will be stocking up on some in the very near future.

 

[thebigt]

incredible how fast this stuff works, every time i start back on it i get get surprised by it.....:veryhappy:

after 2-3 weeks of every day dosing going to a 5/2 protocol works very well for me...not only does it lessen diminishing results, it also makes it last longer!!!

i can run hpta/volume for 2 months take a week off then repeat!!!

FINAL REVIEW

First off thanks to thebigt and Iron Champ USA for letting me try and log their HTPA/VOLUME stack.
I have to say this did not disappoint. I started with 3 HTPA before workouts and 3 before bed and 3 Volume before training. Then would take another 1 to 3 volume before bed depending on if I was getting lucky or not. Eventually went to a 5 on 2 off schedule with HTPA to make it last longer and kept Volume at the same dosage.

Definitely noticed a rise in libido from the HTPA and longer, harder and quicker recovery with the Volume.
Pumps in the weight room were also noticeable.
I was eating at maintenance or below while on this but was able to maintain strength and muscle. This stack worked really well after coming off my PCT to keep some hardness while leaning back out.
I plan on using this again in the future as part of my PCT and recovery. I plan on using the Volume by itself as it really helps in the bedroom and recovery time.

I would recommend this to anyone looking for a little extra umph in the bedroom especially for us 40 and over. But also good for in the weight room with pumps and strength.

 

[Xrkc6x]

Any side effects like water retention? You mentioned you leaned out too, can you elaborate a bit more? Thx!!!!

No problem with water retention at all. I have been in the process of leaning out by keeping my diet below maintenance. But while doing this I haven't lost any strength.
I haven't noticed any negative side effects.
