Alphamine Addicts Anonamous

I'm glad to see our charming Canadian rep was able to help you folks out. (:
 
Does anyone else feel like they're "drugged" from this stuff. After 4 days of use, I discontinued & now I'm feeling fine once again. Better energy Actually. I was getting severe hunger, headaches, and anxiety was increased greatly.
I was dosing at 1.5 scoops @ 8 am (pre workout). Then another scoop @ 1:30 PM. And I would be crashing severely @ work 2 hours later. I have about 60 scoops left so any thoughts ? I would assume this could be side effects of yohimbe but rather hear it from experienced users thanks !

Wow...first time I heard that someone has had a bad experience but again, everyone's makeup is different so the response will vary. But it very well could have been the Yohimbe. Not too many people can tolerate it but fortunately, I'm not one of them.
 
It's really confusing to me as well. I'm disappointed that I had such negative response but no pre workouts nor thermos have made me react that way thus far. Ive used the whole Controlled Labs line(green Mag, White flood purpnwraath).
I have weird feelings from Focus XT as well. So it's got to be some ingredient that my CNS does. Not handle well.

Could be a combination of yohimbine and choline. It's strange, I've never had problems with Alphamine, but this time round if I take a scoop in the morning I'm slight jittery for the entire day and can't sleep.
 
What other supplements were you taking?

The reaction may have been from a combination rather than Alphamine itself I.e. yohimbe with tyrosine.

Nothing else. Could be because I over did yohimbine for a few weeks whilst following a severe calorie defecit. I've taken a couple of woods off and took less than half a scoop today and it seems to be OK. I may just need to increase dose slowly so my body is able to tolerate it. Alternative is to buy the EU version, but what to do with the US version I already have!

My question was mainly directed at ikeNball as he said he is noticing the same from Focus XT so I wondered if he has been dosing them close together.

Yours sounds like you were using too high a dose for your tolerance.

I'm thinking it had to have been from the synergy of other Supps (or maybe my body reacting to me stopping them just a day before the Alphamine).
Thermos: GAT Jet Fuel
Fat Free (I forget which company)
Other:
Green Tea caps
Fish oil
Orange Triad
Paragon (natty test boost) by PNI
And the pre's:
Condense
Focus XT
Prodigy by PNI
Novem

BCAA's
EAA by PNI
Xtend by Scivation

Any clues ? Thoughts ? Much appreciated

Why don't you stop everything else and start on a low dose. I've started on half a scoop and it hadn't caused me problems. After a few days I'll move to 3/4 of a scoop and then to a scoop.

Good advice. I would try this as it will pay off in the long run and you can get the most out of the product that way. You will thank him later!
 
hey guys, what would you choose during a lean bulk along with Anabeta Elite: Alphamine or Erase?

I've read a couple of reviews stating that EP dries you out nicely but water retention will return soon after you drop it, so there is no substantial fat burning effect, just water flushing out of the body. So I guess Alphamine would be a better option.

Has anyone already stacked ABE + Alphamine with great results?

I actually stacked all three a while back (ABE + Erase Pro + Alphamine) during a lean bulk. If I had to choose one, I would go with Erase Pro with AnaBeta Elite.

so you actually felt EP helping you lose fat during the bulk?

PS: forgot to mention I got approx. <8 % body fat

I wouldn't say it helped me lose fat as that wasn't the goal as I was lean bulking. I did feel though it did help keep me tighter and harder then I would have been if I hadn't been using it.

Are you looking to just gain a few extra lean pounds to your frame?

yep, that's my goal. started my first ever cycle with ABE (old formula) and was planning to add something after the initial 4 weeks. However, as I'm prone to joint issues, I was looking for alternatives, such as Alphamine, which is said to be a good thermogenic as well.

The new Erase Pro is much easier on the joints.

Ben (PES rep) also told me this, which is good news indeed. but what about the period after dropping Erase? I heard a lot of people were saying they eventually regained all of the water they had lost thanks to EP

...what? You mean water retention? Or..what?

exactly. IMO taking something which will make you lean & hard only during the period you're using it, i.e. in a cycle, makes no sense, as I'm no competitor. I want sustainable results, not just for the time being. Water retention occurs very often, in some cases even if you meticulously stick to a strict diet. I'm not saying EP doesn't work, I'm just looking for something providing you with lasting results (assuming that one's nutritional protocol is immaculate, of course).

Lets have a look at the drying out effects of an anti estrogen or an aromatase inhibitor.

Did you have 1.5 to 2 x the estrogen befote you took the product? You will ab-solutely dry out! I will say though at that level you should be turning to a doctor. Not self medicating.

Were you within normal range? Drying out your physique is probably not due to estrogen.

You mite see a little water shedding but nothing special if you're in normal range.

A popular use of erase is on a cut. A calorie deficit will make you look drier anyway.

I feel the best place for erase is reverse dieting and the pct of a cycle*I have bloods to prove*

However my thoughts on anti estrogens. Or aromatase inhibitors are twords the no category nowa days. Found some great reading that steers me away.

Estrogen is more mis understood than cortisol in alot of people nowa days
 
Definitely wondering what are the chances of the new alphamine flavour coming out before I start cutting in several weeks.

I'm assuming very soon.

My wife has already been told another insider deal is close and to expect some spending lol
 
Can't wait for this coming insider!!! :D
 
Finally!!! CL alphamine just dropped!! Check your email.
 
Alphaholics all need to check out Facebook for the latest promo.
Crazy good one
 
Hello, I am Weird. I am also an alphamine addict. I'm on my third tub, it is almost gone. I... I just don't have the willpower to not open the fourth!
Why does the label say to take a 4 week break every 8 weeks? Seriously my wife could tell the day I stopped (she thought I was cranky, not caffiene w/drawal as I was using something else). She also noticed I was much happier the third day on alphamine again. She definitely prefers alpha-me :)
 
ikeNball said:
Haha. I'm giving the Alphamine a chance again. Do y'all use it as a stand alone pre workout? How many scoops?
Click to expand...
I often times do. Right now I started my cut/recomp and find it to be my go to. Heavy sweating and incredible focus and energy for my supersets. I haven't been able to find a replacement for enhanced yet so Alphamine is the next best for me.
 
What do all the loyal addicts think about the new flavor? CL just barely nudged the others out for my top flavor. :)

lol, I had this with my girlfriend as well but the other way around. She can tell when I start using Alphamine again lol.

Happy powder.
 
IMO new flavour seems like FP but with a bit more cherry, and I sometimes found FP a bit sour but this is better in that regard.

In order to get the cherry flavour I find I have to have less water.
 
I find it tastes like cherry, Raspberry lemonade is still my favourite
 
Alphamine or Diablo? Who has tried both? Got 2 bottles of Diable and 1 of AlphaMine ready to rock and roll after I finish other pre workouts: condense, prodigy, & focus XT( taken all separately of course). Still using Xtend as my BCAA's

Diablo for immediate energy.

Alphamine good feeling and buzz outlasts it though.

Fat loss was similar with both, if used for fasted cardio edge goes to Alphamine with the Yohimbe.
 
Happy Easter to all you alphaholics. :)
