Nice improvements, I can see them for sure! Congratulations and way to go, from the FINAFLEX Rep himself, FINAFLEX products are Amazing, but they are only amplifiers of the what user is putting into them (diet, exercise, & intensity). So my hat's off to you my friend, great job PJ, we are so happy you like the results and enjoyed our product! Please, if you don't mind, at the very end, post a final review about what you think of the product, from energy, appetite suppressant, mood enhancement, to being more thermal and raising metabolism and anything else you can think of or wish to comment on relevant to PRO XANTHINE 500-XT! Thanks Bro!

So Scott im gonna do epistane cycle in few days...I wanna try epi v with it coz I'm trying to get lean and toned...how will you stack em??? Is it gonna be on cycle or pct??? And how??? I try researching about epistane and epi v together but didn't find anything...

I did a stack like that last year and I just ran 5 weeks of EPI and started the EPI-V the last week of the EPI at 4 caps a day I believe. I would maybe go EPI 30 30 40 40 and just start the EPI-V in the 5th week at 4 ed 2 am 2 pm Use I PCT black in the evenings through the whole cycle. Al likes to throw Pure Test in during cycle as well I believe. Again set your peak conditioning so you are peaking duing the later stages fo the EPi-V to get that lean hard dry look, you'll thank me for it.
 
Just saw the pics, you are right where you need to be for that 10 weeker I was talking about. How old are you?

No! lol EPI-V is a ph shorten your EPI cycle by a week and then bridge in EPI-V then PCT. EPI-V is pretty mild to bridge to. The reason I want you to shorten your EPI to 4 weeks is 9 weeks will be too long unless you have a lot of cycling experience. I want to keep the whole thing down to 8 weeks. Now it this is your first time then I would consider skipping the EPI and just running EPI-V for 4 weeks or even waiting a couple years.
 
I would listen to Doug's advice, he is more knowledgeable about EPI than I am. I know all about EPI-V, which is not an Epistane product at all, but my knowledge on Epistane is limited.

Lol I didn't kno epi v is ph...this is my first cycle and I think I should just do one ph for now...don't wanna risk it going too long for my first ph...but I definitely wanna try epi v...so how mild is epi v??? Do you need a SERM or OTC pct is gtg???

You would not need a SERM it's pretty mild but you always want to have one just in case as you never know how you will react to a product. Basically what happens when you use EPI-V is you will keep your muscle maybe gain a little while you cut and you get hard like you would with other DHT products and EPI-V has stuff in it to slowly dry you out as well. So it's the polish to a cycle, the icing on the cake. It works very well when used this way.

Yah 22 is pretty young for a cycle as well. I didn't do anything till my mid forties. It's your choice but at your age you can get so much accomplished with just diet and lifting. Plus as a natural you will learn 10 times more about your body than when cycling which really skews things.

Yea I get you sir...but epi v looks soo good and making me want to try that...I heard you did epistane and epi v bridge...how was ur cycle and you pct line up??

It was 4 weeks EPI 6 weeks EPI-V I did PCT Black and Toremifine and Pure Test for PCT. I also used some PCT black when on the EPI-V...

So sir...can you tell me if I wanna stack this two(epistane and epi v)...how will you suggest???

Epistane 30/40/40/40
Epi v 0/0/0/0/4/4/4/4/4/4caps for 6weeks

Or

Epistane 30/40/40/40/0/0
Epi v 4/4/4/4/4/4

Or

Epistane 30/40/40/40/0/0
Epi v 4/4/4/4/4/4

Well the first as you use Epi-v to peak but that's one hell of a run for your first cycle. Like I said before you are yong and I couldn't in good concience suggest you do a run like that. If I am to advize you then I would say wait 2 more years. If you are set on a cycle then just run a 6 week Epi-v cycle and forget about the EPI... or you could just run the 4 week EPI but it'sa bit harsher but still not that bad. If you aboslutely have to do the both then 4 weeks of each will suffice.
 
Just chiming in to say I completely agree with Doug's advice! "The Docta concur's!!!"

Blueberry Extract
Blueberry Benefits
Antioxidant Effect
Blueberries are powerful antioxidants. Antioxidants help neutralize harmful by-products of metabolism called "free radicals" that can lead to cancer and other age related diseases. Anthocyanin, which is the pigment that makes the blueberry blue, is the key antioxidant responsible for these benefits (Prior, RL, et. al. J of Agric. Food Chem. 1998, 46:2686-2693).
Anti-aging Effect
Blueberries are believed to reduce the build-up of bad cholesterol that is a contributor to cardiovascular disease and stroke, due to their antioxidant effects (Heinenen, L.M. et al. J. Agric. Food Chem. 1998, 46:4107-4112). A diet that features blueberries may also improve motor skills and reverse the short term memory loss associated with such age-related diseases as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, and Parkinson’s disease (Nutritional Neuroscience, 6:153-162, 2003; Journal of Neuroscience, September 15, 1999, 19(18); 8114-8121).
Anti-Cancer Effect
In vitro research carried out in 2001 at the University of Mississippi found that blueberry extracts slowed the growth of two aggressive cervical cancer lines and two fast-replicating breast cancer cell lines (Wedge DE, Meepagala KM, Magee JB, et al. Anticarcinogenic Activity of Strawberry, Blueberry, and Raspberry Extracts to Breast and Cervical Cancer Cells. J Med Food. 2001;4(1):49-51).
A 2005 study at the University of Georgia demonstrated blueberry extract’s ability to inhibit cell proliferation in two separate lines of colon cancer cells, reducing by more than 50% the rate at which the cells otherwise multiplied. Researchers concluded that phenolic compounds in blueberries can inhibit colon cancer cell proliferation and bring on apoptosis (programmed cell death) (Yi W, Fischer J, Krewer G, Akoh CC. Phenolic compounds from blueberries can inhibit colon cancer cell proliferation and induce apoptosis. J Agric Food Chem. 2005 Sep 7;53(18):7320-9).
Cancerous cells are able to grow and invade surrounding tissue by secreting enzymes that break down the surrounding matrix that would otherwise confine them. A study published in August 2005 in the Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry showed that blueberry flavonoids down-regulate these structure-degrading enzymes that enables cancerous cells to spread and invade other tissues. (Matchett MD, Mackinnon SL, Sweeney MI, et al. Inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase activity in DU145 human prostate cancer cells by flavonoids from lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolum) : possible roles for protein kinase C and mitogen-activated protein-kinase-mediated events. Nutr Biochem. 2005 Aug 17 (Epub ahead of print).
Blueberries contain another antioxidant compound called ellagic acid, which blocks metabolic pathways that can lead to cancer (Ahn. D. et al. The effects of dietary ellagic acid on rat hepatic and esophageal mucosal cytochromes P450 and phase II enzymes. Carcinogenesis 1996 Apr;17(4):821-8).
Effect on Brain
In vitro research involving rats has demonstrated that blueberries have the ability to enhance dopamine levels. Dopamine is an essential neurotransmitter that enables smooth, controlled movements as well as efficient memory, attention, and problem-solving function. Researchers also believe that blueberry extract might increase brain cell membrane fluidity while reducing levels of inflammatory compounds, thus slowing the brain’s normal aging process (Joseph JA, Shukitt-Hale B, Denisova NA, et al. Reversals of age-related declines in neuronal signal transduction, cognitive, and motor behavioral deficits with blueberry, spinach, or strawberry dietary supplementation. J Neurosci. 1999 Sep 15;19(18):8114-21).
In a 2004 study, the spatial memory of laboratory animals was enhanced by the addition of blueberries to their diet. When later studied in vitro, the animals’ brains demonstrated structural changes associated with an improved capacity for learning (Casadesus G, Shukitt-Hale B, Stellwagen HM, et al. Modulation of hippocampal plasticity and cognitive behavior by short-term blueberry supplementation in aged rats. Nutr Neurosci. 2004 Oct-Dec;7(5-6):309-16).
Effect on Urinary Tract A compound found in blueberries promotes urinary tract health and reduces the risk of infection. It does this by preventing bacteria from adhering to the cells that line the walls of the urinary tract (Ames BN, Shigenaga MK, Hagen TM. Oxidants antioxidants, and the degenerative diseases of aging. Proc. Natl. Acid. Sci. USA 90:7915-7922, 1993.
Effect on Eyesight
A number of studies have shown that blueberries and bilberries (the European cousin of the blueberry) improve eyesight. Blueberries prevent eye damage, preserve eyesight and are helpful in treating myopia (nearsightedness). Blueberry consumption may offer a great deal of protection against retinal degeneration (particularly diabetic retinopathy and diabetic cataracts). Blueberries may also offer significant protection against the development of glaucoma because of its collagen enhancing actions (Kajimoto, Osami, Blueberries & Eyesight, Food Style 21, (3), 3, March, 1999).
During World War 2, British fighter pilots regularly consumed bilberry (a variety of blueberry) extract prior to entering combat. French researchers found that bilberry helped improve nighttime visual acuity, adjustment to darkness, and recovery from glare (Monograph. Vaccinium myrtillus (bilberry). Altern Med Rev. 2001 Oct;6(5):500-4).
Anti-Inflammatory Effect Researchers believe that the phytochemicals in blueberries may reduce inflammatory processes in tissues by increasing cells membranes ability to allow vital nutrients and chemical signals to pass in and out of the cell (Journal of Food Science, Vol. 65, No. 2, 2000).
Other Benefits
At a 2004 meeting of the American Chemical Society it was reported that a compound found in blueberries (pterostilbene) could be a "potent weapon in the battle against obesity and heart disease through its cholesterol-reducing potential." The report added that the compound “may help fight cancer” (Research presented by Agnes M. Rimando, August 19, 2004 at the American Chemical Society national meeting in Boston, MA). Another study, conducted by Mary Ann Lila, Ph.D., Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, indicate that compounds in Wild Blueberries may be effective inhibitors of both the initiation and promotion stages of cancer (Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 52:6442, 2004; Journal of Food Science , Vol. 65, No. 2, 2000).
A 2004 in vitro study on rats suggests that blueberries may have applications in the prevention of stroke in humans (Norton C, Kalea AZ, Harris PD, Klimis-Zacas DJ. Wild blueberry-rich diets affect the contractile machinery of the vascular smooth muscle in the Sprague-Dawley rat. J Med Food. 2005;8(1):8-13).
Research conducted in 2002 suggests that blueberries may protect the brain against the damage that is normally associated with ischemic stroke (Nutritional Neuroscience, 2002 Dec.; 5(6): 427-31).
Research is currently underway at the USDA’s Arkansas Children’s Nutrition Center to investigate the role blueberries may play in preventing childhood obesity. The National Institute of Aging (NIA) is also conducting blueberry research to identify the effect that a wild blueberry diet could have on stress resistance. Preliminary results indicate that blueberries may be as effective as pharmaceuticals.
Blueberries are also known to relieve diarrhea and constipation.

Sulbutiamine, a fat soluble thiamin (vitamin B1) derivative and Benfotiamine, another form of thiamin with a superior ability to penetrate cell membranes and increase bioavailability over conventional thiamin supplements. Vitamin B1 is a factor in the maintenance of good health, and helps the body metabolize carbohydrates, fats and proteins.

Methylsynephrine -is phenolic B-Phenylethylamine found in Acacia rigidula and some cacti, which produces considerable central nervous stimulation (CNS). With Hi-Tech's research over the past five years on Acacia rigidula (as Thermo-Rx®), Hi-Tech has identified and isolated severarl key phenylethylamine alkaloids. The newest of which is methylsynephrine. The alkaloids from' Acacia rigidula are biologically and physiologically similar to those found in ephedra, and possess properties that are shared with ephedra alkaloids. Scientifically, this is in part due to the similarities in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. The most obvious similarity is that Acacia alkaloids, like the ephedra alkaloids, readily pass into the brain. The main factor governing the transfer of small molecules into the central nervous system is lipophilicity. The distribution of drugs and/or compounds into the CNS from the blood is unique, because functional barriers are present that restrict entry of drugs into this critical site. One reason for this is that the brain capillary endothelial cells have continuous tight junctions; therefore, drug penetration into the brain depends on transcellular rather than paraceuliar transport between cells. The unique characteristics of pericapillary glial cells also contribute to the blood-brain barrier. At the choroids plexus, a similar blood-cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) barrier is present, except that it is epithelial cells that are joined by tight junctions rather than endothelial cells. As a result, the lipid solubility of the nonionized and unbound species of the drug is an important determinant of its uptake by the brain; the more lipophilic it is, the more likely it is to cross the blood-brain barrier. This situation is used in drugs design to alter the brain distribution, which is the case with drugs like amphetamine, phentermine, and benzphetamine. As you can see from the comparison of the structures of ephedrine, norephedrine, and methylsynephrine they all possess the N-methyl substituent of the aliphatic sidechain, which is characteristic of ephedrine and its congeners, as well as methylsynephrine, thus further increasing lipophilicity.

Dimethylxanthine -theophylline /the·oph·yl·line/ (the-of´ĭ-lin) a xanthine derivative found in tea leaves and prepared synthetically; its salts and derivatives act as smooth muscle relaxants, central nervous system and cardiac muscle stimulants, and bronchodilators; used as a Invalid Link Removed in Invalid Link Removed and in Invalid Link Removed, Invalid Link Removed, or other Invalid Link Removed.

Schizanadrol A is an effective component of the dried fruit, schizandra chinesis bail. Studies have found that schizandrol A inhibits the central nervous system, while elevating dopamine and dopac. This enhances mood, especially when paired with a CNS stimulant, such as caffeine or 1,3-dimethylamylamine.​

Oh another old fugger quote for my thread...
 
how it is man...goos stuff!

had shoulders and abs this morning. I didnt realise, HIIT really screws with the body if you do not fuel correctly and also get that recovery in. SO instead of the HIIT it was a 5km mod run at 4:10min per km.
Loving this energy. Just need a better sleep agent. I dont wanna eat carbs at night although there are benefits to it through GH release and seretonin. My sample of G8 was tremendous. best sleep for a while...would love to log that also hahahah

Sitting at my desk eating 200g carrot/broccoli/cauliflower and 250g chicken breast with my apple cidar vinegar+wholegrain mustard. Yum.

I will be happy to let you run a LOG for our G8 after you have successfully run a LOG for our PX, cool?

When you say "wholegrain mustard" are you referring to the kind that actually still has the whole mustard seeds in it?

good there hear that ... some report it at first but then it seems to go away after a couple uses... so no real big deal if you experience some.

I took the whole sample Packet

USA 90:7915-7922, 1993.Effect on EyesightA number of studies have shown that blueberries and bilberries (the European cousin of the blueberry) improve eyesight. Blueberries prevent eye damage, preserve eyesight and are helpful in treating myopia (nearsightedness). Blueberry consumption may offer a great deal of protection against retinal degeneration (particularly diabetic retinopathy and diabetic cataracts). Blueberries may also offer significant protection against the development of glaucoma because of its collagen enhancing actions (Kajimoto, Osami, Blueberries & Eyesight, Food Style 21, (3), 3, March, 1999).During World War 2, British fighter pilots regularly consumed bilberry (a variety of blueberry) extract prior to entering combat. French researchers found that bilberry helped improve nighttime visual acuity, adjustment to darkness, and recovery from glare (Monograph. Vaccinium myrtillus (bilberry). Altern Med Rev. 2001 Oct;6(5):500-4).Anti-Inflammatory Effect Researchers believe that the phytochemicals in blueberries may reduce inflammatory processes in tissues by increasing cells membranes ability to allow vital nutrients and chemical signals to pass in and out of the cell (Journal of Food Science, Vol. 65, No. 2, 2000).Other BenefitsAt a 2004 meeting of the American Chemical Society it was reported that a compound found in blueberries (pterostilbene) could be a "potent weapon in the battle against obesity and heart disease through its cholesterol-reducing potential." The report added that the compound “may help fight cancer” (Research presented by Agnes M. Rimando, August 19, 2004 at the American Chemical Society national meeting in Boston, MA). Another study, conducted by Mary Ann Lila, Ph.D., Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, indicate that compounds in Wild Blueberries may be effective inhibitors of both the initiation and promotion stages of cancer (Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 52:6442, 2004; Journal of Food Science , Vol. 65, No. 2, 2000).A 2004 in vitro study on rats suggests that blueberries may have applications in the prevention of stroke in humans (Norton C, Kalea AZ, Harris PD, Klimis-Zacas DJ. Wild blueberry-rich diets affect the contractile machinery of the vascular smooth muscle in the Sprague-Dawley rat. J Med Food. 2005;8(1):8-13).Research conducted in 2002 suggests that blueberries may protect the brain against the damage that is normally associated with ischemic stroke (Nutritional Neuroscience, 2002 Dec.; 5(6): 427-31).Research is currently underway at the USDA’s Arkansas Children’s Nutrition Center to investigate the role blueberries may play in preventing childhood obesity. The National Institute of Aging (NIA) is also conducting blueberry research to identify the effect that a wild blueberry diet could have on stress resistance. Preliminary results indicate that blueberries may be as effective as pharmaceuticals.Blueberries are also known to relieve diarrhea and constipation.Sulbutiamine, a fat soluble thiamin (vitamin B1) derivative and Benfotiamine, another form of thiamin with a superior ability to penetrate cell membranes and increase bioavailability over conventional thiamin supplements. Vitamin B1 is a factor in the maintenance of good health, and helps the body metabolize carbohydrates, fats and proteins.Green Tea Extract (60% EGCG) as standard in fat burning products I can elaborate further if you wish...
Methylsynephrine -is phenolic B-Phenylethylamine found in Acacia rigidula and some cacti, which produces considerable central nervous stimulation (CNS). With Hi-Tech's research over the past five years on Acacia rigidula (as Thermo-Rx®), Hi-Tech has identified and isolated severarl key phenylethylamine alkaloids. The newest of which is methylsynephrine. The alkaloids from' Acacia rigidula are biologically and physiologically similar to those found in ephedra, and possess properties that are shared with ephedra alkaloids. Scientifically, this is in part due to the similarities in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. The most obvious similarity is that Acacia alkaloids, like the ephedra alkaloids, readily pass into the brain. The main factor governing the transfer of small molecules into the central nervous system is lipophilicity. The distribution of drugs and/or compounds into the CNS from the blood is unique, because functional barriers are present that restrict entry of drugs into this critical site. One reason for this is that the brain capillary endothelial cells have continuous tight junctions; therefore, drug penetration into the brain depends on transcellular rather than paraceuliar transport between cells. The unique characteristics of pericapillary glial cells also contribute to the blood-brain barrier. At the choroids plexus, a similar blood-cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) barrier is present, except that it is epithelial cells that are joined by tight junctions rather than endothelial cells. As a result, the lipid solubility of the nonionized and unbound species of the drug is an important determinant of its uptake by the brain; the more lipophilic it is, the more likely it is to cross the blood-brain barrier. This situation is used in drugs design to alter the brain distribution, which is the case with drugs like amphetamine, phentermine, and benzphetamine. As you can see from the comparison of the structures of ephedrine, norephedrine, and methylsynephrine they all possess the N-methyl substituent of the aliphatic sidechain, which is characteristic of ephedrine and its congeners, as well as methylsynephrine, thus further increasing lipophilicity.Dimethylxanthine -theophylline /the·oph·yl·line/ (the-of´ĭ-lin) a xanthine derivative found in tea leaves and prepared synthetically; its salts and derivatives act as smooth muscle relaxants, central nervous system and cardiac muscle stimulants, and bronchodilators; used as a Invalid Link Removed in Invalid Link Removed and in Invalid Link Removed, Invalid Link Removed, or other Invalid Link Removed. Its choline salt is Invalid Link Removed. 4-methylhexane also known as Geranium, DMAA a first class smooth stim product, very strong and very effective...Schizanadrol A is an effective component of the dried fruit, schizandra chinesis bail. Studies have found that schizandrol A inhibits the central nervous system, while elevating dopamine and dopac. This enhances mood, especially when paired with a CNS stimulant, such as caffeine or 1,3-dimethylamylamine.​
