Keep us updated. I do believe you maybe the first to report such issues. Are you still dosing a full scoop?* Quick update: Stomach issues persist. I will refrain from taking my serving today of Ultima to see if he stops.

I will keep everyone updated. It could be just a simple bug; I will remain open-minded until further evidence presents itself.Feeling during and after dose (including any crashes) - Refer back to MA. I only used half the serving and was dialed in more so than the full dose of yesterday. I am going to stay at the half serving until I become adjusted, or bored - whichever comes first.
Fair enough!I will keep everyone updated. It could be just a simple bug; I will remain open-minded until further evidence presents itself.
Hey Rob!hey bud, how's the stomach doing today?
:scared: eeek! I hate needles, even if they sound pretty like a 'butterfly'..I am going to hook an IV up in an hour and get 1 more bag in for the day. And yes, I do it myself.
The first one that comes to mind would be JP8. I did not have any issues with that one, or any other pre workout powder that I can note.Curious have you ever had this reaction to Magnesium prior?? Have you used other pre workout product that are Magnesium with similar results??
Sorry to hear about the illness, buddy. Hopefully it's just some sort of gastroenteritis and will pass.Hey Rob!
Thanks for asking - I took the entire day off to rest and watch movies. It rained the entire day anyway. I had to go get some fluid yesterday (IV) to replenish my system better. Man, that was the worst 2 days! I did not take my dose yesterday or today; however, I will brave it tomorrow. I'm really hoping that it's not the Magnesium, or the supplement for that matter. It's feeling relatively normal considering what it's felt like the past few days.
Once again, thanks for taking the time to ask., when most could care less.
I did not take any pictures today. Hell, would you if you were in my shoe(s)? Hahahaa! Definitely will tomorrow, no doubt about that. I just don't feel well enough to do so right now. I am going to hook an IV up in an hour and get 1 more bag in for the day. And yes, I do it myself. Given my profession, things of this nature (IV, shot care, etc) are a specialty for me know. The military trained me well! LOL - I am, however, using a butterfly needle for my hook in. Trauma1 will understand that!
Well I ask because the Magnesium amount in ULTIMA is quite low with others like SP250 No-Xplode and the like when you start taking multiple scoops of those it can reach over a gram. So I'm thinking you may have a bug or something totally unrelated to the product. I'm not discounting the idea though.The first one that comes to mind would be JP8. I did not have any issues with that one, or any other pre workout powder that I can note.
I will update everyone later; no issues today. I have not dosed yet, but will do so in a few hours before my workout.
Of course; however, I have not said that it is definitely the product. I am leaning toward a bug, but just keeping my options of pin-pointing the problem open. Hell, I hope it is indeed a bug.Well I ask because the Magnesium amount in ULTIMA is quite low with others like SP250 No-Xplode and the like when you start taking multiple scoops of those it can reach over a gram.

Oh I understand and wasn't saying you did. As I said I wasn't discounting the idea as I know some are very sensitive to Magnesium.Of course; however, I have not said that it is definitely the product.

Agreed. I am dosing in 20 minutes, then hiting the gym. Update will follow this afternoon.Oh I understand and wasn't saying you did. As I said I wasn't discounting the idea as I know some are very sensitive to Magnesium.
Thanks, Snag! Like I said, I am no Body Builder, rather a fitness enthusiast. I'll get some Back and Leg pictures up at some point. I am also going to start including some food pics as well. (Taking a page out of your book )Good to finally see a pic of ya Lungz!
You look lean & in great shape. Kudos.
Thanks for the kind words, Jon!Lookin lean and mean, Fin! :thumbsup:
Nope, Ultima is the only runner right now. I discontinue all other supplements when I run something Sponsored. I am dosing it with my mid-morning protein/fruit today - so we will see.Hey Iron,
Are you taking any kind of multi-vitamin or any other supplement high in magnesium?
While it is certainly possible ULTIMA could be te culprit, I would say it is unlikely. Albion dosed the MCC as high as 8 grams without GI issues, and we have had no instanced or problems oursleves, thus far.
If possible, try taking with a little food and see if that helps.
That is Ranger style there baby, taking care of yourself and your comrades if they needed it even if you did not have a medical background (good old first aid/buddy aid). On another note, sorry for being so late on this thread. I will be keeping an eye on you there fellow Ranger. Making sure you are ok, and seeing how this supp pans out. Hooah.Hey Rob!

Good deal - thanks!Looking solid, my friend! :thumbsup:

I'm in GA. Rucking is one of my favorite things to do. Nothing beter for the calves!Where are you located Iron? I am planning to start back rucking a few miles a week, would be nice to team up with someone. I plan to keep my ruck light, maybe a 60-100lbs. One day on flat terrain, and maybe 2 cross country. I hope I can maintain the 4km or more an hour standard. Anyone in the Houston Texas or surrounding areas that wanna go rucking hit me up.
What Ike?
Hahahaa! Yeah, I've been told that my viens are freaky.Lookn good Iron!! Those veins in your forearm are really blue!
Thanks, man. Thankfully, no issues to speak of today!hang in there IL
I believe CL saw issues with GreenMag with only ~3g of MCC. It was a blend of MCC and DCM, initially I think 3g and 2g. Proprietary, but no higher than 5.Hey Iron,

Yeah - LOL! I was going to recommend to everyone that tries the sublingual route to make sure they rinse their mouth out directly after the dose. Just don't spit it out... wait, what?Glad you're feeling better. Did my 1st try of Ultima today, 1/2 scoop, no issues (Other than slightly yellow teeth lol ). I'll throw up the log later tonight .
No pun intended, but after re-reading that I realized I said throw up :footinmouth: The yellow teeth didn't last long at all, but the neon urine is going to be amusing This stuff tastes awesome though, definitely enjoyed the citrus flavour.Yeah - LOL! I was going to recommend to everyone that tries the sublingual route to make sure they rinse their mouth out directly after the dose. Just don't spit it out... wait, what?
Link us all up in here when you get it up, man.
Done.Hey Iron its almost 3:30..time for a new avi!!
Better late than never!sub'd bro...cant beleive i missed this.
Thanks for the insult and the advertisement. :thumbsup:Visually, I have a hard time following in these threads...there's just doodads and thingies everywhere.
In case you are unaware Andro is the product formulator and a PHD. He was simply trying to help ease your mind and shed some more light on the subject for those following along and post the FAQ to answer some questions. Where did he insult you? And we are aware you never said that ULTIMA was the cause of your GI distress but you did say the only thing you could point to causing the problem was the magnesium contained within ULTIMA. Now as a company we see that and our first concern is we don't want anyone becoming sick from our product and if a problem exists address it. Beyond that our next objective is to discern if the product is or isn't the cause of the problem simply because the reputation of both the product and the company are on the line here. Surely you can understand that. Yet you've had a company rep, the company owner and the product formulator respond to your thread and your responses have been very snappish and I just don't understand that. All any of us our trying to do is help in anyway possible as well as see if there is a potential issue with ULTIMA that may need to be addressed. Thats all.Thanks for the insult and the advertisement. :thumbsup:
There again, I never stated that Ultima was the definite cause.
This is where I see an insult.Visually, I have a hard time following in these threads...there's just doodads and thingies everywhere.

Wow just wow, ok. I'm done here. Good luck man.This is where I see an insult.

And to be honest, I do not see where I have been snappy.
There's no need for a retort; any matters that you have with me can be taken to PM. I will not fill my log with this banter any longer.
Updates to come...
How come ? Iron is being very professional about this.Wow just wow, ok. I'm done here. Good luck man.
