Good Aromatase Inhibitor?

[python93]

Hello AM so I was wondering if you can recommend me a good AI.
I'm 19 yrs old and I'm in pretty good shape I just cant seem to loose that little extra fat in my mid
section and my lower back and man boobs. I have my diet and training in check I believe.
I'm also going to take Lipo 6 Black.
Or if you think something else will do me better please tell me thanks.

 

[Rebel29073]

seems general consensus is Formestane. Expensive though and likely only found on Amazon. Seems it was discontinued some time ago so not sire what the shelf life is.

Lets see what others have to say.

Read the Bolded part.

Thanks bro

No it wouldn't don't mess with AIs until you are 21 in my opinion.

 

[Geoforce]

No need to hit up the hormone modulators at your age. Something you can look into in a few years.

 

[PintSizPopeye]

I'd save my money and go with the ECA stack instead of the Lipo 6. Do a search here for it and you'll find all the info you need. Just make sure to start of with a low dose and slowly work your way up, It's strong stuff.

Thanks. So you would recommend just sticking with the fat burner alone?

If you are getting a real fat burner that is.

What brand is it?

Right. So which one do you recommend?

It's not a brand...you make it. Here's a link with the instructions:

[D2footballjrc]

At his age would he really even need ECA? Just some caffeine and working his tail off should produce awesome results. To be young again!!!

Eat the way for how you want to look.
Train hard.
Sleep.
Repeat.

Supplements are not a necessity and besides supplements to fill in the gaps, a 19 year old doesn't need much.

Fish Oil
Protein/BCAA's (Depending on training style)
Creatine

 

[Clickster]

My advice is to wait until you are a bit older before using these types of products.
Here is a good read for to check out:
http://www.athleticxtreme.com/articles/is-a-testosterone-booster-right-for-you-if-youre-under-21/

For fat loss; Give AX Slim FX a look if you are wanting great energy and appetite control.
It is a little strong for me due to my sensitivity for stims. Start with just 1 cap.

Good Luck!

This is true too...you are 19, and I would not be recommending one, I was just specifying what a EC stack is. Like D2 said, best for you is to get your diet, workout and rest in check.

 

[Geoforce]

At your age creatine and protein is really all I'd supplement. But I didn't really know about the supp game at your age so I can understand the temptation.

 

[python93]

No I'm not in a rush for supps I just wanted to know if there were any other good supps for my age that I could add
If not then that's OK
I currently supping on:
Whey
BCAAS
Creatine Mono
Fish Oil

Enjoy the natural hormones you have man. The more you work out and train, and get enough rest they go up more as well.

 

[rw357]

Could consider resveratrol at your age I guess.

This isn't a bad list. Either start saving 30 bucks a month for sups so you have a stash of dough for when you're old enough or spend your money now on food and women. It's just not something worth investing in at this point.

 

[python93]

Probably invest in food. Not women lol

Try aromasin...My friend used it at 16 to prevent gyno because he was getting it from puberty

-Exemestane (a third generation non-competitive, selective and irreversible aromatase inhibitor): a pharmacokinetic study with healthy eugonadal men (aged 14-26 years) showed suppression of plasma estradiol levels both with the 25 mg/day and the 50 mg/day doses, and a reciprocal increase in the concentration of testosterone. With the 25 mg/day dose, time to maximum concentration is 1 hour, indicating rapid absorption. Half-life is 8.9 hours, and maximal estradiol suppression (62±14%) was observed at 12 hours. The drug is well tolerated.6

I'd only do 12.5mg EOD tho certainly not 25 or 50mg a day that's just crazy

 

[howwedo107]

Now when you say man boobs you mean...fat or gyno? Bc an AI for fat loss...no get your diet truly in check for that but for gyno read my post above

Ricky we are not allowed to recommend any kind of AAS or Research Chem related stuff to minors under 21. Furthermore if he really has Gyno he should see his family doctor to get blood panels, it can be an early age hormonal imbalance. If this is the case and his Dr. is not an idiot he will get referred to a proper specialist (Endocrinologist) to deal with his Estrogen-Testosterone possible issues.

Then again like he himself said in a post just now, it could just be fat. Just remember we cannot recommend this...and also not in a supplement section brother!

I didn't recommend aas or a research chem I recommended a prescription drug that if he found a doctor that thought he had gyno would LEGALLY prescribe it to him so yeah...

Then tell him that to go to a Doc haha , he gets it legally there. If not...well people tend to buy Extremastane online !

 

[howwedo107]

Also it's out of my control I where he posts a thread...if its I general or anabolic or supplement or sports it doesn't mean I'm going to disregard it because of a simple mistake

 

[Rebel29073]

I agree with the 19 and non need to modulate comments. I overlooked the 19 year old comment...my bad.

Ok I posted pictures of my upper body.

You dont need an aromatase inhibitor, you just look like you need to cut & reduce carb intake.

It likely seems your problem lie in slight insulin resistance & higher bodyfat (which also causes higher estrogen levels). Focus on heavy lifting, reducing carbs & having a solid diet, and then lose fat.

For supplement recommendations:

Fish Oil
Creatine
Protein
Multivitamin
Alphamine for fat burner

2 tbs peanut butter (7 g protein)
1 Glass of milk (8 g protein)

1 g Fish Oil

My Workout routine looks like this

Sunday Off
I usually 4 exercises per body part with 8-12 reps of four sets.

Wayyyy too much carbs man, thats more than I eat on a BULK! Swap out the rice meals in favor of almonds or some nuts, that will make a huge difference. Instead of having Rice+Eggs, just eat more eggs. Eat 7-8 and throw some spinach or something in to help fill you up.

 

[howwedo107]

Wow that is a lot of carbs lol

 

[rw357]

44grams of protein from 8oz of chicken seems low.
Does your pre workout drink have protein or at least glutamine and bcaa in it?

**add cardio for 30-45 mins a day

Starred. Also eat some fiberous veggies/fruit.. spinach, asparagus, papya, pineapple. Help with digestion, along with plain greek yogurt (sweeten with splenda) or add a scoop of protein to it.

Most 4oz servings have 22g of protein in chicken. The chicken i get is 23g per 4oz..

 

[python93]

Thanks I'll cut my carbs in half then

No I usually take
C4 Extreme along with 3 g of BCAA's
Is the dosing OK on the BCAA's or should I increase it?

 

[python93]

Also will some 45 mins. of fast paced walking at night be good for cardio?

 

[Nickype]

Thanks bro
Would this be ok for my age

Black Lion research do a good clone of it that is available

 

[tyga tyga]

Yea thatd be just fine. Most ingest 5-10g bcaas during workout or after.

Formestane isnt banned either, just want to throw that out there

Also, you could look into abliderate advance or dermatherm, both topical fat burners.

There are some articles that pre protein is just as important as post protein. Might just want to throw some whey in there, like 10-15grams.

 

[bpmartyr]

What is really important is tracking calories in vs. TDEE. You can eat whatever you want and still lose fat as long as you are in a deficit (although for overall health certain food choices are obviously better) until you get down to lower bodyfat levels where playing with macros can play a bigger role.

Make sure you are getting at least 1gram of protein for every lb of LBM, adequate levels of healthy fats and then the rest in carbs until you are at your goal calorie level to minimize loss of LBM abd performance.

This is pretty elementary and until diet is in order supplementation is pretty useless. IMHO

True, thats why i reccomend food first supplements second. Python they have tdee and bmr calculators online, or you can figure it out by yourself (most accurate) by using the equations. After that, eat 200-500 cals below maintenance and add in cardio.
