I do 1.5g on workout days. So 5 workouts week = 30 caps, which is barely more than the old recommended dosing protocol of 1g every day (28/week).
Can be, but when you compare it to the typical cost of a prohormone cycle + cycle support + pct, its incredibly reasonable.Are most of you guys running 1g+ for your cycles? So 4 bottles for a 50 day cycle if you want to run 2g can get a little pricey...
OK this makes sense... I ran it awhile back at just the 1g, so pretty pumped to see what 2g would do w/ the GG, baby aspirin and LCLT. Will taking less on off-days lower the amount of Arachidonic Acid stored, or is this pretty common to do as well?Can't speak for 'everyone' lol, I would say many first time users start with just the 1g dosing, which I had success with my first time out...going up to 1.5 -2g, I'll usually just dose on workout days only or like 500mg on off days, to make the bottle last a bit longer...
I am in the UK and the original Xfactor is a little harder to come by, would the new sns x-gels suffice? I think they have exact same ingredient profile but Xfactor has Arasyn...
I see a huge difference between 1.5 and 2g daily. And it certainly justifies the cost in my opinion.I've found that i like 1.5g pre workout, 2g is good but it just goes through the bottle faster. More is in fact better, but just tough to afford for most of us.
I've never seen an XF capsule...but it could be the capsule thickness, the additional zinc, etc.I suppose this is a good enough place for a question I have. Can anyone tell me what accounts for the difference in pill size between x-factor and x-gels? X-gels are much larger yet both products yield 250mg ara
Do you have the new version of X-Gels?I suppose this is a good enough place for a question I have. Can anyone tell me what accounts for the difference in pill size between x-factor and x-gels? X-gels are much larger yet both products yield 250mg ara
New X-Gels also have 268mg per capsule, which may account for the slightly larger size.Do you have the new version of X-Gels?
I have the old one and the softgels are much smaller but that is because the dose is 40%. I would assume that the newer version had a similar size softgel to X-Factor.
Really? I thought was 250mg but I'm might be wrong...New X-Gels also have 268mg per capsule, which may account for the slightly larger size.
Then again, no idea how big XF caps are.
SNS posted a lab test showing 268mg per cap, just to make sure that by the time it reaches you, you got 250mg or maybe a little more!Really? I thought was 250mg but I'm might be wrong...
250mg is the labeled amount and it slightly exceeds label claims.Really? I thought was 250mg but I'm might be wrong...
6-8 caps on workout days would be my choice, that's currently exactly what I'm doing.If doing 3 workout days a week on xfactor would A. 6-8 caps pre workout on workout days only or B. 4 caps pre workout on workout days and 4 caps on one off day be optimal?
I'll get at eta on when we will be replenishing stock of X-Factor and X-Factor Advanced, I dont think it should be longer than 2 weeks until they are ready and shipping. All of the major UK sites seem to carry our line now, and I know we will be sending quite a bit over so hopefully it wont be as hard to find them over there in the future!I am in the UK and the original Xfactor is a little harder to come by, would the new sns x-gels suffice?

I recently looked at purchasing X-Factor or X-Gels. After doing some price comparison shopping I came to the conclusion that almost none of the major UK sites carry X-Factor lol.I'll get at eta on when we will be replenishing stock of X-Factor and X-Factor Advanced, I dont think it should be longer than 2 weeks until they are ready and shipping.

O wow, I would list off the sites that carry our line, but I dont think I'm allowed to do that on this forum. We have 2 large distributors in the UK and a handful of other e-tailers that we deal with directly. So I didnt anticipate UK customers having such troubles, very sorry to hear that.I recently looked at purchasing X-Factor or X-Gels.

Cheerio!so in the meantime, X-gels with your next FocusXT order...? Can I get a 'cheer-i-oh' up in here?![]()
Honey nut?Cheerio!
ohh yeaaa I'ma even take a step further and add some c-o-pso in the meantime, X-gels with your next FocusXT order...? Can I get a 'cheer-i-oh' up in here?![]()
If memory serves me correct, they are roughly the same.Do you have the new version of X-Gels?

I AM STARTING AN X GELS RUN AND I USUALLY TAKE CLA, FISH OIL, ORANGE TRIAD, AND SUPER CISSUS LOL WOULD IT BE OK TO TAKE THESE 6-8 HRS AWAY FROM XGELS? I READ THAT THE JOINT SUPPS ARE OK FAR AWAY BUT WHAT ABOUT CLA? I KNOW IT BUILDS UP IN YOUR SYSTEM SO IM NOT SURE IF IT WOULD BE DETRIMENTAL TO CONTINUE DOSING IT OR NOT? ALSO, I TAKE BURN24 AND IT HAS 100MG OF CISSUS, BURN24 IS DOSED THROUGHOUT THE DAY WITH CARBS! DO YOU THINK THIS WILL INTERFERE WITH MY X GELS RUN? THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY ADVICE YOU MAY HAVE FOR ME...250mg is the labeled amount and it slightly exceeds label claims.
If you look around in the UK sites, you will see that more sites stock X factor than X gels... And I love X factor and one of the 'major' UK sites actually done an interview with W Llewellyn as he is held in high regard as are Molecular Nutrition and for good reason. SNS is also a solid brand and it is because of X factor that I have purchased X gels and if they perform anything like X factor (same active) I will be more than happy.I recently looked at purchasing X-Factor or X-Gels.

Thanks for your response, I love X factor and would like to see it back in stock as a lot of places sell XFA but I have preference of original. Is there any plans to sell Xfactor in maybe a bigger serving per bottle? As its sold in 60 caps and XFA is in 100 as is X gels...

I would just drop fish oil and CLA while taking ArA. If you do want to continue taking them, yes 6 hours away from ArA will be good as well as Cissus and Burn24.I AM STARTING AN X GELS RUN AND I USUALLY TAKE CLA, FISH OIL, ORANGE TRIAD, AND SUPER CISSUS LOL WOULD IT BE OK TO TAKE THESE 6-8 HRS AWAY FROM XGELS?

OK THANKS, YEAH I'LL DROP THE CLA AND FISH OIL I DON'T DESPERATELY NEED IT OR ANYTHING BUT IM NOT TOO CLEAR ON WHAT YOUR SAYING IN REGARDS TO THE BURN24? I KNOW CISSUS XT WOULD BE DOSED 6 HRS AWAY BUT DOES THAT GO FOR THE BURN 24 AS WELL? IT HAS 100MG OF CISSUS IN IT NOT SURE IF THATS ENOUGH TO AFFECT ARA OR NOT?I would just drop fish oil and CLA while taking ArA.

No I doubt 100mg of Cissus in Burn24 will affect ArA. I wasn't sure how much cissus was in Burn24. You should be good to dose it whenever.OK THANKS, YEAH I'LL DROP THE CLA AND FISH OIL I DON'T DESPERATELY NEED IT OR ANYTHING BUT IM NOT TOO CLEAR ON WHAT YOUR SAYING IN REGARDS TO THE BURN24?

Your welcome, credit where credit is due. Most places have the 60ct of X-Factor but I haven't seen the 100ct about. Oh really!? So the 200ct will be available in the UK? are you able to hint whom will have the 200ct version... I'm excited, hopefully will be affordableThanks for your support!
Both X-Factor original and X-Factor Advanced are currently available in two sizes: 100ct and 200ct bottles.
Within two weeks one of the major e-tailers will have the exclusive 200ct X-Factor for cheap and the other will have the exclusive X-Factor Advanced 200ct, also for very cheap. These will be the way to go if you are a UK customer. And of course everybody else will have the 100ct versions of both.
The 60ct has been long discontinued in favor of the 100ct.
Yea avoid fish oil, I take cissus/fish oil soon as I wake up and workout late evening , have been working greatOK THANKS, YEAH I'LL DROP THE CLA AND FISH OIL I DON'T DESPERATELY NEED IT OR ANYTHING BUT IM NOT TOO CLEAR ON WHAT YOUR SAYING IN REGARDS TO THE BURN24?

Yea, within two weeks everybody should have stock of both 100ct XFO and XFA, and of course the XFA 200ct is already available in the UK and there will also be the one other store with XFO 200ct.Your welcome, credit where credit is due.

How many weeks aqua re you talking about when you say long term?What are your thoughts of long term use of Ara at a lower amount, say 250-500mg per day?
This is a good question, long term inflammation would not be a good thing...How many weeks aqua re you talking about when you say long term?
Yea 7-8 weeks would be the max I would go even at a low doseThis is a good question, long term inflammation would not be a good thing...
I thought it was local inflammation, specifically in muscle tissue. I'm sure I read that W Llewelyn takes one (250mg) everyday when asked what his supplement regime was... I'm just curious as its found in food, so why would you have to cycle it? It's high in eggs for example but I eat them for long duration. I'm just theorising but someone with better knowledge maybe of the scientific facts please correct meThis is a good question, long term inflammation would not be a good thing...
If you have a pre-existing injury, it may aggravate that injury.Due to its pro-inflammatory properties, would Ara possibly increase the chance of injury?
For example, since I have some shoulder problems would I encounter more issues while on ArA? Has anyone experienced this?
I think it would depend heavily on what the pre-existing injury is. I've got a few, but I don't find them to be any less manageable due to ArA supplementation.Due to its pro-inflammatory properties, would Ara possibly increase the chance of injury?
For example, since I have some shoulder problems would I encounter more issues while on ArA? Has anyone experienced this?
You can always dose Cissus after ArA (I dose Cissus XT about 6hrs after X-gels) if it does start to become a problem; or run it at a lower dose.^ Thanks for the responses.
I guess I'll give it a shot and see how it goes.
Crossing my fingers that it works out and I dont end up crippled.
