Which would you do as a Non-hormonal Stack

I have come to the conclusion that I have to limit myself on the amount of damn money i spend at nutraplanet, so I have devised three stacks that I want to run for 8 weeks in January. I will no longer just continually try and run stuff lol.

Its going to be either:
1.
8 week cycle of
Mass Fx (2 bottles)
Hyperdrol x2 (2 bottles)
Retain 2 (1 bottle, I already have one on hand)
Total est. cost: 212.89


2. Drive/X-Factor
3 bottles of drive
1 bottle X-Factor
total est. cost 149.65


3. Drive/X-Factor/DCP/leviathan Reloaded
total est. cost: 207.64

The first one just seems to pricey, Drive and X-factor def cheaper, and Drive/X Factor/DCP/Levi looks like it covers more bases to me (more bang for your buck). My goals are Recomp/slight fat loss (i never try to go above 10-11%bf. Opinions!?? Any and all greatly appreciated.

2nd one. you need 2 bottles of X-Factor btw. 50 day cycle 4 caps each. you could always do bulk x-factor which is 70 bucks instead of 90. 70+ 70 = 140. 2 bottles of Drive should be good if you run at 6 caps then ramp down to 4 after day 10. 3 bottles is also cool. Id say do 3 bottles drive 2 bottles x-factor run drive at 6 caps straight through. You'll love the results. Leaning out and mass

I pick 3. Leviathon/dcp stack is awesome for a recomp. My diet was bad one week and still dropped fat on it. I wouldn't go route 1. If you want something for test boosting I'd pick up a bottle of atd or transdermal formestane. Both are cheap and both seem to give me good strength gains. I personally would go for the e-form because its cheap and I feel better on it than I do on atd.

I chose 3 because that is what I will be doing sans the XFactor. I am more interested in cutting, maintaining mass and hardening what I have as I am a big fella.

Agree, I would pick the third option, throw out X-Factor and add IGF-2 instead. That way, you would see some very good body recomposition (thanks to DCP/Drive/Leviathan Reloaded/IGF-2), muscle hardening (thanks to Drive/IGF-2), heightened endurance (thanks to Drive/IGF-2) and a noticeable enhancement in quality lean mass (thanks to Drive/IGF-2).

Now to X Factor. X Factor has had very good reviews, so it must be an excellent product. It is just that I personally am averse to having to cope with so much "inflammatory" turmoil in my body over a sustained period of time. No attacks intended, jjohn I've always admired your dedication to your product. Some other reps should learn from you!

2 bottles of bulk XF and 2 bottles of JW would be my choice.

Edit: but that depends how you define non-hormonal i guess
