Question Powerfull dosing question...

How long can I use powerfull for?

I have been currently taking the new formula for amost 90 days, 1 cap at night to help me sleep. Can I continue to take it at that dose, or should I take a break for a month?

In terms of safety, there aren't any real issues, but you will adapt at some point. The maximum I would go is 120 days, with a one month break, just to ensure you are getting the maximum out of the product.

On a bit of a side note, have you considered increasing the amount of cap's you take? I've been taking 2 cap's pre breakfast, 3 pre workout & a cap at night time, after of course following the label's suggestion...and the result's have been fantastic!

Mullet, what do u think?

I think that individual dosing is great brother. Find the balance which is nice for you and roll with it.

Don't mean to hijack or bring up an old topic but i have 2 stupid easy questions.

Just bought Powerfull, and wanted to double check and make sure that i will NOT need a PCT after taking it and to make sure i don't need to take any days off until the bottle is finished.

thanks

No PCT required as this is Non-Hormonal.

You can run the full bottle with no stops without any issues what so ever. For best results 8-12 weeks on the PowerFULL is good and will give some good results.

You could also if you do run a 12 week course then try dosing it for 5 days a week and taking 2 days off. This is another dosing protocol and reduces the body getting used it and so keeps you getting results.

I agree with this, everyone is different, i like 2/2/2-3 but i also believe some time off is good, and that you should play with your pre-bed dose, if you do too much for your body you will be alert instead of sleepy. If getting lean is your goal then crank up the dose before cardio especially.

If you can take the lethargy of the HGH release that is a good protocol or you can dose 2/2..

Remember to use 1 hour after eating...

Ive been taking an hour BEFORE food.

I am on a ketogenic diet, so I have no carbs. My diet is all protein/fats. Is it ok to take before food in my case?

Without carbs there will be less of an insulin spike, but some amino acids are still insulinogenic. Try and take it further ahead of you meals if you can, empty stomach is best for absorption.

It depends on the balance of EAA/BCAAs within the protein itself. High concentrations of Leucine may elicit an Insulin response, though it is doubtful that it would be substantial enough to negate the effects of
