Coz its a cool thread and u shouldnt delete itI've deleted this thread from my subscriptions 2x now. why the **** isn't it going away
Let's break it down a bit and see what we can come up with....I'm currently taking Tr1umph, stacking it with a few other products however.
One thing I've noticed is....
When taking bulk PA, I was taking 2-3 tablespoons the pump I got was out of this world.
Even with adding CU, I don't get the same pump.
Which is weird, I am 96kgs. I might add a tablespoon aka 15g extra to my Tr1umph.
Same question I am asking.I havent read through this entire thread, but what is the supposed MOA for fat gain with SL besides the small amount of calories it contains? Doesn't make any sense to me
this would make total sense to me. for "fat gain" you need excessive calories...simple math here all.Same question I am asking.
1. There cant be "huge" fat gains just after couple of weeks.
2. Phospholipids such as PA can increase Glycogen retention and it can lead to "fast" weightgain but it is NOT fat.
I believe many people misunderstand that.
I will say Glycogen retentionI added fearn SL on the 3rd week, gained about 5lbs in two weeks, most of which is visible fat gain/bloat. My cal intake hasn't changed but it does vary slightly, still not enough for the 5lb gain in the midsection though. I'd say it's the SL, but I don't mind it right now.
Glycogen retention will even cause a tape measure to grow - you really need a Sub-Q fat pinch and caliper to measure if it's fat.I will say Glycogen retention
Totaly agree.this would make total sense to me. for "fat gain" you need excessive calories...simple math here all.
That is 120% correctGlycogen retention will even cause a tape measure to grow - you really need a Sub-Q fat pinch and caliper to measure if it's fat.
20g almonds= about 115 caloriesI am following a low calorie diet .
I added a few fat in the diet .
I would like to replace the 20g of almonds (breakfast), with lecithin .
As you see lecithin in low-calorie ?
fogged ?
ahahahah20g almonds= about 115 calories
20g SL=140-180 calories
1g almond=5.77 calories
1g SL=7-9 calories

Yes I agree, I did say bloat on my previous comment. I should have said glycogen retention to be more specific. I can tell it's not lbm so it's a bit of fat and mostly glycogen retention.I will say Glycogen retention

And when you get on it after a break do you still progress in strength? Meaning strength progression continues from where it was before stopping? If it is this way, whoa!!.... Even better than AAS, as most of the strength gains are lost after the cycle....I lose some fullness when I stop using it (because it stops working for me after a few weeks) but strength is intact and therefore muscle is not lost, just appearance of such.
If you are looking for PA from SL + a few other proven ingredients shown to improve strength may I suggest you give OL Tr1umph a look? It has helped me push past my last plateau.**** pump I'm powerlifting (tested), so this sounds incredible to me! Ty for the good news!

Same. Strength athlete here. PA helps a bit with strength progression.Yes, they continue. I train for strength so any minuscule variation is obvious to me. It may not be the same for pump trainers.
Would dearly want to try Tr1umph but SL has given me horrible GI issues, thats why I go by sunflower lecithin now. Could the other ingredients in Tr1umph help with the GI issues from SL?If you are looking for PA from SL + a few other proven ingredients shown to improve strength may I suggest you give OL Tr1umph a look?

No real "need" to. Though I typically prescribe to the school of thought that says a break from anything for a few weeks is likely a good thing. I only break this rule for staples that are more "health" oriented than performance (like epi, creatine, healthy oils, etc).Any need of cycling PA? Been on PA for 6months+ now
Are you saying that you don't think that Phosphatidic Acid works, or that you don't think soy lecithin is a viable source of PA?I keep reading how it turns people into fat asses. Have only seen in popular on AM. Still have no interest in it at all. Like to read what people say they think they got from it though. That's always kind of interesting.

How was I talking as if I had used it?. Do you just want my attention or something?. Like drama?.He doesn't know what he is saying.
Simply talking. As you see in his post, has never attempted to use the ingredient, yet will talk as if he has.
All the dramaHow was I talking as if I had used it?. Do you just want my attention or something?. Like drama?.
The way you worded it can be interpreted as you not thinking PA works, hence why you find it interesting to read what people "think" they got from it, as if they didn't get any benefits from it in reality. I'm not saying that's what you meant, but I can see how someone would read it in that way.I'm just saying what I've read about it here on AM and that I really don't have an interest in it.

thx man, also im about to start epic unleahsed ( I see you say you are using this as a staple) how you dose thisNo real "need" to.

I only break this rule for staples that are more "health" oriented than performance (like epi, creatine, healthy oils, etc).
I mostly use the TD.thx man, also im about to start epic unleahsed ( I see you say you are using this as a staple) how you dose this
No that's not how I meant it. I've seen both positive and negative feedback. I think the jury is still out really. Maybe I'll try it one day, maybe not. It just doesn't stick out to me right now as something I must try.The way you worded it can be interpreted as you not thinking PA works, hence why you find it interesting to read what people "think" they got from it, as if they didn't get any benefits from it in reality.

Anyway, PA has multiple human studies showing benefits, as well as good anecdotal feedback around here. Soy lecithin granules are a feasible source of effective doses of PA (confirmed by research), and also have solid anecdotal feedback. What more do you want?
For around 7-13 bucks a month, it isn't too costly to try. (but you probably already knew that)No that's not how I meant it. I've seen both positive and negative feedback.

Ok. I wasn't saying that's how I though you meant it, just that it's one possible interpretation. Sometimes it's hard to tell tone/intent on the internet, haha.No that's not how I meant it.

Danes, is this with the Optima lecithin? I get it on Friday. Should I start with 1.5g PA? Do you split dosing up or just take it pre workout and sometime during the day on rest days?I allways gain weight.on PA even without adding more calories. Glycogen retention like u said KDD ..
But seriously,
To all of you who want to try PA , dont be affraid to increase the dosage.
Like i said before. 750mg PA was nothing to brag of but 1.5g and 2g was the thing!
Increased apetitte
Pumps
Musclefullness
Weightgain
Strength gain
Size
So if you dont feel anything from 750mg of PA, it would not hurt increasing the dosage
If you go 1.5 grams off the bat, I would split the dose pre (30-120 minutes) and another post and/or later prior to a higher fat meal.Danes, is this with the Optima lecithin? I get it on Friday.
