'retain' or 'retain 2'

I can currently get ALRI's 'retain'(same as AX's retain) for half the price of AX's 'retain 2'

My question is;

which is more effective;double dosing the original 'retain' or just running a normal dose of 'retain 2'?

retain2 is going to be a stronger cortisol blocker and offer greater fatloss benefits.

what are you trying to accomplish with retain?

Would the "benefits" of double dosing a discounted product outweigh those of normal dosing a current run? Economics plays a role in a lot of my supplement choices, and this is a question I'd ask myself.

I'm actually running our R2 right now, and will be until the end of the year. So far, bellyfat loss is definitely apparent, especially in someone who's got some belly to lose! :P

I loved Retain 2 solo. I seriously doubted it...i ate my words, bad. I def noticed a waist line reduction as well as overall weight loss. It will always be a staple supp of mine now in PCT and whenever i plan a cut. It is in my first PCT so i expect sic results.

I eat words on a daily basis because I eat Frosted Alpha-Bits Cereal for breakfast. Sometimes I eat cheerios, in which case the only word I eat is "Oooooooo".

what are you trying to accomplish with retain?
the supression of appetite and fat loss

so a normal run of retain 2 will be 'better' than running a double dose of the original?

All I can really tell you is that #2 was designed for greater fatloss/anticortisol effects; whereas, the original was designed to help maintain muscle mass after a prohormone cycle. Retain2 will reduce cortisol, increase thyroid, and burn fat a lot better than the original. If it were up to me, I would go with the second one, but that's just my opinion.

ok, I know that retain 2 will be better than the original, but more than twice as good?
