YG Capping/Dosage

[getjacked63]

Hello,

I just got my capping kit last nite, and capped some yellow gold. it was the first time i had ever capped anything, and MAN WHAT A PAIN IN THE ASS! anyways, thats besides the point. i had size 0 caps, and after weighing them out, they are each about 400 mg instead of 500 mg a piece. My question is, would I be better off taking 3 400 mg pills before eating, or would i be better off doing something like:

15 min before breakfast - One 400 mg pill

15 min before pre-workout meal - 2 400 mg pills

15 min before last carb heavy meal - one 400 mg pill

basically, would i be better off taking 1200 mg per day or 1600 mg per day w/ 800 mg being preworkout.

Thanks

100mg less will not be that much less, just spread your dosages up over the four..

And I told you capping sucks, shoulda used my method

Getjacked,

Did you tamper (compress/pack) the powder in the caps to fit as much as possible? The "0" caps are supposed to hold ~680 mgs, but that of course depends on the density of the powder, other factors, etc.

And don't forget to remove the weight of the cap itself. I dont think with any amount of tamping that I could get 680mg of YG in a 0 caps. Thats about how much I can fit maximum with tamping in a 00 cap.

yeah i tampered as good as i could. this **** is just a plain mess. my hands were just pure yellow and i wasted soooo much powder. probably around 3 g of wasted powder that got stuck to the paper towels i was doing this on......not going to use paper towels next time.

anyways, you think i should be taking 4 pills throughout the day at 400 mgs each then mulletsoldier?

and yes i did the parachuting thing for awhile, but would still prefer caps.....dunno if its worth it though haha

What I do is use a clean new sheet of paper (legal sized it the best) and put it under the cap em quick. Whatever falls over the sides is saved. When I'm done capping I fold the paper down the middle and tip /funnel the powder back into the container. I do this every time I cap something.

I'll be honest, I don't have a scale. YG is my first time capping. I think in another thread, USPLabs says to use the "0" caps. Also, I was going by the Cap-M-Quik's website (see image).

Thankfully (incase I've underdosed), I've been taking 4 pills anyway...
