    Due to the increase in carbohydrate metabolism; you may see less bloat and better CHO assimilation which may translate into more frequent hunger return post-feeding.

    So, it correct me if I am wrong (in your case) but, it is simply easier to eat more.....which is awesome...

    Hey folks, im trying to find my timing for this supplement. I tried eating a meal with carbs after 15 min from the ap dose and i felt a bit slugish/sleepy after eating, what does this mean?? I think it might have been a bit more than 15 min more like 20 does this matter really??


    Also:
    im 150 lbs at 10% bf trying to lean out further, how many grams of carbs are optimal for me to take in a meal after a dose of ap for best results. Should everyone be taking 40g of carbs or why do you guys recommend diching at least 30g of carbs in a meal after ap dose?? does this apply to everyone? or the amount of carbs dependes on bodyweight, age , gender , etc. Read also that ap is not needed on say 20g or less of carbs a meal.

    Feedback aor any comments

    Thanks in advance

    It more than likely means that you are not getting enough carbohydrates. Try taking in 60 g of complex carbs 15 minutes after AP.

    Hey dex, i was wondering if taking a double dose of ap would be able to substitute 1 pslin in sucking a good amount of carbs. I ask cause i just ran out of pslin and i like to do the monster shake protocol preworkout.
    In fact im actually waiting for my pslin/ap combo to arrive.

    Let me know.

    Yeah, about 2 AP is equal to 1 P-Slin so go for it.

    Also if anyone has any questions feel free to private message me.

    Great product. Used sparingly over the course of 1.5 months (1-3 doses per day) and has really helped break a plateau in fat loss. Zero side effects.

    Question on stacking the AP/ P-Slin!

    I'm trying to bulk up and slim a little belly fat down at the same time. My diet is clean and is running right now at 3500-3800 calories a day. I consume 350-380g carbs and 230g protein per day. This diet is my typical average day of food and doesn't vary to much. Dinner is pretty much the only thing that changes for me.

    I need to find out what the best dosages to use are for each of the compounds. Say 2 AP per day? 1 P-slin? At what times do you think it would be most effective to dose them? Also, what about non work out days? I do a 4 day split with a 2 day break saturday and sunday.

    7:30: Breakfast - Oats, Yogurt, 2 Eggs. Roughly 500 calories, 50g carbs.

    9:00: Gym

    9:45-10ish: PWO Shake - ON Serious Mass,milk, olive oil, liquid egg white, yogurt. 1000 cal, 165g carbs. (Do you think its to many carbs? I can cut back the yogurt if so but the serious mass alone is 125 carbs.)

    12ish: LUnch 500 cals, 45g carbs.

    2:30ish: 2nd Lunch 500 cals, 45g carbs.

    4:30: Pre Dinner Snack 280 cals, 36g carbs.

    6:00: Dinner Tough to nail this one down lol but its typically around 500-800 cals, 20g-40g carbs. Depends on how hungry I am by dinner time.

    8:00: Pre Bedtime Shake ON Casein, milk, liquid egg white.330 cals, 19g carbs.

    10:00: If restless I always take Somnidren GH.

    Nope! Only USPowders DominATP and USPLabs Jack3d contain creatine.

    I thought I would ask in here instead of making a new thread. I was hoping you might be able to shed some light on the ideal dosing for me. I have to work around my work schedule. Below is my current schedule. I am dosing before and after my workout. Would you suggest moving my AP meal to Meal 3, for the 6-8 hr half-life? I am dosing it this way to have the AP+carbs before my workout. Thanks for the help.

    Meal 1: 7:00am AP

    Meal 2: 11:am

    Meal 3: 2:00pm

    Meal 4: 5:00pm AP

    Workout 6:30pm-8:30pm (time varies in which I start my workout)

    Meal 5: 7:45-8:30pm AP

    Meal 6: 11:00pm

    As soon as I'm done my workout, I consume about 50grams of whey isolate. Then about 30-45 minutes later once I get home I have a nice whole-food meal with lots of complex carbs.
    So my question is when should I take this dose of AP? Should I take it before my shake as soon as I'm done my workout? Or after the shake and right before my carb meal? I remember reading something about taking AP after insulin has already been released makes it useless. So would the insulin from the whey "waste" my dose of AP if I did it after?

    You should really make an effort to get some carbs in you immediately after your workout. Your body increases GLUT4 naturally when you workout. GLUT4 are the "doorways" to the muscle cell. Take AP before breakfast, before your pre-workout meal and before another meal other than pre-bed and post-workout. AP increases GLUT4 and working out increases GLUT4 so taking AP post-workout is kind of a waste.

    yo dex, if you dont mind me asking, why wouldn't you have ap for your las meal before bed??? wouldnt you be able to add about 30g carbs to that meal without worrying about those carbs being detrimental to your physique??

    On a second question, i wanted to ask you, i have a carb up about 2 times a week where, as opposed to having a cheat meal, i have my diet and only add 100g extra carbs spread evenly throughout the day. and in this particular carb ups i do have carbs IN ALL 6 MEALS
    So i been using ap for 5 of those meals with the exception of the post workout meal as i did know about the post-workout response to nutrients in relation to glut4 stimulation in muscle cells as you mentioned above.
    So the question is, is it fine to have as much as 5 doses in these days or do you find anything bad on my particular protocol??? is it too much ap or will it loose effectiveness??

    If it helps at all, i dont use ap other days in the week with the exception of breakfast. so in other words, im usning 1 ap cap per day and 2 of those days i use 5 caps.
    Any thoughts???

    You could take Anabolic Pump before your last meal of the day. What Dex tried to point out was that, to minimize the risk of carbohydrate spill-over, it would be prudent to take your most carbohydrate-rich meals before the last meal of the day. If you choose to consume 30gr carbohydrates in your last meal of the day, however, you certainly could take an Anabolic Pump before that meal.

    Personally, I think an extra three capsules of Anabolic Pump should be enough for an extra 100gr carbohydrates. Generally, therefore, I would not recommend taking five to six capsules of Anabolic Pump daily. Yet, a large part of the answer to the question(s) you posed depends on how you have responded to those five capsules you took on your carb-refeed days. In particular, considering that you take five capsules only two days per week, and one capsule on the other days, sort of like pulsing Anabolic Pump, your current protocol should be fine, if you think you have responded well to it. If you feel lethargic on those five-AP days (probably due to carbohydrate-related energy deficits), you may reduce your Anabolic Pump intake via trial and error until you reach a maximum amount that works for you. The recommendation here may not be precise, but this is because your lifestyle and physiological status might make all the difference versus a different user, and consequently calls for some experimentation.

    Thanks for the reply, first off. To be completely honest, ive found this protocol very beneficial. In fact, ive found slight muscle gains while still leaning out and diet has stayed the same. I just didn't mention this because i didn't want the peps here in am to think i was just "trying to kiss ass"
    In fact, the first time i tried ap a long time ago i thought it was bunk, but somehow i was brought back to the product and after reading the ap manual manuscript i tried waiting 30 min protocol and its been almost magical, ive found ap DOES WORK. I mean, ive tried this diet fashion but, although fat loss was progressing, i was feeling bloated and lethargic at times due to the recharge from the carbs after acuple carb meals in the carb load days.
    But after doing the proper wait time for my body type, it almost seem as carbs are literally injected into the muscles. Fact is , i feel very energetic on those carb days to the point that i been doing two a days instead of working the two muscles at once since i have so much energy.
    Trust me , i freaking bought 3 ap/slin stacks when nutra was having that special some time ago, I just hope the goods dont stop , hehe.

    I have a dream, though, maybe one day you guys will make a product that encapsules fat from a meal , that would make burgers and fries THE anabolic meal haha.
