no. Just Androstenetriol, 7-beta-hydroxy-dhea and maltodextrin.
I do agree with the other statements, the amount of anything that might be in just the torem as "dirty beaker" syndrom shouldnt be enough to throw a positive, but I don't see anything else either that could do it.

I would guess Xlean too. Gl to you edwards.
Some of the compounds in Drive will actually compete with estrogen- so this willl probably help prevent any type of gyno![]()
PS- You should keep all your gains, or even gain lean muscle, when using Drive for pct. It also has several components that mimic LH and boost cAMP levels significantly- and lowered LH and lagging cAMP levels post-cycle tend to be two major reasons that individuals coming off a cycle tend to lose at least some of their gains, and feel like **** in the process![]()

Good question- I am in the process of trying to round up testers to try and do this on my end- I know what some of the studies show as far as the components of Drive go- but w/o the blood work to back it up- it is just supposition at this point. My theory is that Drive will increase LH, raise free test, and lower SHBG levels- and I have contacted several labs in the Charlotte area to try and get pricing on pre- and post- RPM/Drive cycle bloodwork.
I am very interested in seeing your blood work pre and post- should be some interesting results!!

Well, I have pre-Drive lab work that I got done last Monday. I could always get another panel done. Let me make sure it has test levels on it. I'll pick it up from the Lab on Thursday at the latest.
Also, It seems that I found the culprit for my false meth positives, ABB's "SpeedStack." Its got all sorts of speedy goodies in it. So I will continue the Torem.
I feel pretty good so far coming off cycle. A full report later tonight. I'm doing back/biceps.
Day 5
Interesting update today.
First Drive taken at 9:50am. Walnuts and cranberries eaten at 10.
2nd Drive taken at 6pm on empty stomach. Next meal, a protein shake eaten at 7.
Within 15 minutes of taking the Drive, I noticed something... different. I can't explain it. Focus maybe. Then, the agression set in. I couldn't wait to hit the weights.
I started lifting at 8:30. Back/Biceps.
I maintained or increased weight/reps on almost every exercise. I was very aggressive and focused.
I took no unusual stims today. No Xenergy, no Speed Stack. Just 2 Diet Pepsis.
Workout looked like this.
3 Sets of:
Pull ups
One Arm Rows
Wide Grip Seated Pully Rows
Pulldowns
Barbell Curls
EZ Bar Preacher Curlz
Incline Curlz
I also promised I would weigh myself after my workout and a 10 minute visit to the SteamRoom.
Weight 197 - down from 199
Bodyfat % - 17% - down from 18
I believe the reduction in BF is a direct result of my strict diet, keeping it less than 2400 calories a day since last Monday. (8 days of the new diet.) When I was on cycle I got a little loose with my eating.
Strength: Up
Bodyweight/Body Comp: Reduction in Bodyfat % and weight.
Pumps/Vascularity: Shoulder vasculariy noticeable
Endurance: Great during workout well into 9:30 pm.
Aggression: Much higher than yesterday
Focus: I definately was more focused today.
Libido: Same
Muscle Density/Hardening: Triceps seemed harder today.
Overall Energy: Great today. From when I woke up at 7 till now at 11.
Personal Commentary: I feel great. Who knows if its the Drive. But I'm not experiencing the negatives of going off cycle so far.

Success occurs when everything you have is APPLIED.
Have you heard about N.O. Uptake? ;-)
I will be using Drive in my PCT, so this is s great log for me to check out before! Thanks Edwards! Looking forward to you getting some great results, because that means I will get some too! But then again, what doesn't give you great results that comes from AN!
Day 6
1st Drive taken at 9:00 AM
2nd Drive taken at 7:00 PM
I only got 6 hours sleep last night and it was apparent around 4:00pm. I was extremely tired, nodding off in my chair at work, wishing I could crawl into bed and catch a few Zzzzs.
I got a 2nd wind before my workout at 8:30. Today was 30 minutes of Cardio. I did a Stairclimber for 15 minutes and the recumbant bicycle for 10 more.
When I got home, I pigged out on Vanilla Yogurt Cheerios, about 2 bowls worth! (~400-500 calories) I try to throw my body off once a week by adding some extra carbs. However, I am the first to admit that I overdid it!
Day 7
1st Dose at 6:45 am.
2nd Dose at 7:00 pm.
Today was total and absolute REST. Ahhhhhhh.
Tomorrow is shoulders. I am going to make them pay for getting off easy last week. Boooya
