Anabolic Pump - Horrible Stomach Problems

[SelfKnowledge]

I would first like to say that YES, I have read the entire anabolic pump manual and as many posts as I could find about anabolic pump using the search function. I have also tried the different timing of anabolic pump (first did 15 minutes, and I have now extended it to 30 minutes until my 60 gram carbohydrate meal).

Since the first day I started taking it I have experienced horrible stomach irritation that causes me to have horrible diarrhea! First I just figured it was just my stomach getting used to anabolic pump and from other posts, it seemed to be normal. The following 1st week a lot of the irritation and anabolic dumps subsided to only 3 times a day (which was a lot better than what it was the first couple of days). But now in week 2-3 Ive had the worst stomach irritation ever. It seems to be worse on my off days when I don't workout.

To just explain how bad this is....for the past 5 days (this has been my off week after was working out on a strict regimen for 2 months) I have experienced the worst of all stomach irritation! I've been averaging at least 10 anabolic dumps a day....and they aint solid anymore. It is pure diarrhea at its worst...constant squirts, constant stomach irritation all day- its hard for me to get through my 3 hour classes without having to bolt to the rest room and let it out!

I have not changed my diet at all - Its been staying clean with lean meats, complex carbs, and only good fats. I'm also not taking any other supplements as of now - just a multivitamin and protein powder that i've always been taking.

I love the feeling of not being bloated that anabolic gives me after eating a high carb meal! But i hate this constant diarrhea! What's the deal? Is it just from not working out during taking it that makes the difference? I'm eating plenty of carbs, and I've tried eating more carbs after taking it (up to 80-100 grams) to test if that was what was causing it...turns out that didn't work either.

Is there anything else I should try? Am I just not compatible with anabolic pump? (is that even possible?) and should I just stop using it? Please help! Any advice would be appreciated!

That means you need to stop. Your body is telling you something.

[KD1]

Same thing happens to me bro.

Just quit it - its not worth the ****s and those nasty wet farts.

If you got it at Vitamin Shoppe you can return it.

I would agree, for the immediate future at least. AP most induces gastrointestinal stress due to anti-microbial action which releases the bowel mechanism. Supplementing for one to two weeks with a potent probiotic enyzme complex may assist in attenuating some of this distress. I would attempt the following suggestion, and at your discretion begin Anabolic Pump again.

Same thing happened to me the first day, and I got a rash. I'm fine now, though. Sorry to hear you couldn't get it to work out.

[Nole1]

It gives me the occasional dumps - but nothing like what is described above. Guess I've got one of those cast iron guts.

Thanks a lot for the advice guys...I was going to stop after my dose this morning because I've already gone to the crapper 4 times since taking it. ( I thought I would give it one more shot on my day back to working out, but it aint happening so far!).

I'm just disappointed I paid 40 bucks for something that seems to work for almost everyone else so great besides me! I didn't even get the pumps everyone talked about! it just made me feel less bloated after eating a high carb meal! I bought it from nutra planet...so I don't think ill be getting any return money on it

Hopefully starting superpump/size on today will make me feel better about spending so much money on supplements!

The key is (as you are aware), everyone is different. When i read the above post it made me cringe when you mentioned the SuperPump250 product. The worst 2 or 3 workouts of my life were a direct result of SP250 dosing. I am in no way talking down on the Gaspari products; the point is 'Everyone is different.'

As Mullet said, i have had some people use pro-biotic enzyme complex and the side effects have went away. If you feel like you are stuck with the product, you can always list it in the classifieds section.

Best of luck with the rest of your training

Haha...Greattttt. Hopefullly I am different than you as far as superpump250 goes then. If this doesn't do anything for me i'm done with supplements for awhile. My last few supplements I have bought have done nothing but hindered progress....

I feel like I should just stick with my clean diet and take a gatorade to the gym as my pre/intra supplement lol....that seemed to work better with less ass pain.

haha sorry to worry you but SP250 is often known as SuperDump250. Probably not the best reassessment supplement.

I've been using AP for months and have not once had an upset stomach from it, so unfortunately it does seem to vary person to person. I'm sorry to hear it did not workout for you bro I would consider listing it in the supplement auction area of the site, so you can recoup some of the cost, or do a trade.

Now, to recommend for you something that will work....


Something that I KNOW is not gonna mess with your stomach is transdermal formestane. Formestane is an anti-estrogen (aromatise inhibiter), and using it for 8 weeks will boost your body's *natural* testosterone levels. You will gain strength, muscles mass, and loose fat. The good news is that it is not super expensive, the bad news is you are going to have to make it yourself. Don't let let that scare you though, because the rewards are more than worth it I assure you. When I say make it I don't mean put on a lab coat Pat Arnold status, I mean you are going to have to buy some bulk power, a transdermal carrier, and mix and measure them out. Not that difficult.

All the information you need about this is here:

If you want to consider something a bit less involved, but still effective:

- Palo Alto Labs Incarnate (beta alanine & cissus, look them up!)

or

- Designer Supplements AcTivate Extreme (natural test booster)

Wanna sell your remaining AP?

[SelfKnowledge]

Big Casino - Yeah man, seems to vary from person to person. I NEVER have stomach issues. I have a very very strong stomach...I was always the guy that did all the eating contests, was able to choke down anything and everything no matter what. So this really did take me for surprise which is why I thought I must be doing something wrong if everyone else is loving the supplement so much (including my good friend who got me to buy it in the first place).

And yes..i'm willing to sell the rest. I'm at work right now so I can't tell you exactly how many I have left. When I get back home I will count my remaining supply and will take the best offer!

Thanks again for the suggestions guys.

Too bad you don't have a stomach like mine. I must have plenty of bacteria because I've eaten food that makes my whole family sick to their stomach and been fine. You could try and fortify your body with some extra probiotics, but to me it seems like AP just doesn't agree with you. Listen to your body.

My ass just exploded from Anabolic Pump! Not a pleasant experience. There was liquid feces well above the rim.

I'll give it a few more days before I stop the Anabolic Pump. If this continues I won't have any choice but to discontinue use.

[RoadBlocK]

WoW, so strange how some guts are extremely reactive, and some are totally opposite. I have never had a problem with ap and movements. I wonder if some people might just allergic to one of the ingredients?

[ozarkaBRAND]

I'll get an anabolic dump every now and then, but it's nothing too serious.

[SOLARUS]

AP gives me awful gas. it does a number on a lot of people's plumbing.

[SelfKnowledge]

I'll get an anabolic dump every now and then, but it's nothing too serious.

That's how it started for the 1st week for me, and everything was cool. Frankly, I feel better when i take more dumps...but not when I'm pissing out my ass 10x a day. Literally saturday night I pissed out of my ass 10 times. Talk about a burn! Whooo.....I counted my pills. I have 10 days of it left (30 pills). After week 2, the pissing out the ass became excessive leading all the way u to what occurred last saturday....my stomach is still recovering.

10 days of AP left if anyone wants to buy it....im not sure anyone would want only 10 days worth...but hell, make an offer and its yours.

[tribaltek]

I definitely have some issues here and there, but on days I eat a lot of yogurt and/or don't drink a ton of coffee I seem to be ok.
