What test booster do you guys run in PCT? Obviously alongside a serm... used to use a combo but it's getting a bit expensive
Some guys love kings blood from Olympus Labs haven't done my first cycle yet but many will chime in and say that or alphamax xt.What test booster do you guys run in PCT? Obviously alongside a serm... used to use a combo but it's getting a bit expensive
Alphamax seemed decent. It was a touch expensive but I think it's bogo on the site I shopSome guys love kings blood from Olympus Labs haven't done my first cycle yet but many will chime in and say that or alphamax xt.
I'd definitely go with alphamax xt. It's worth the money in my opinion because it's quality.Alphamax seemed decent. It was a touch expensive but I think it's bogo on the site I shop
AlphaMax is a little more expensive because all the ingredients are dosed accordingly and it is more than a test booster.Alphamax seemed decent. It was a touch expensive but I think it's bogo on the site I shop
Now obviously the reduce xt is for cortisol. Maybe wondering if I can drop that all together making alpha the easy choice... thoughts?AlphaMax is a little more expensive because all the ingredients are dosed accordingly and it is more than a test booster.
It contains a full dose of Ashwagandha, which is most known and used for reducing cortisol and helping with stress and anxiety, but there are also studies showing it can improve muscle mass, strength, and endurance, which is beneficial at any time.
It also contains a full dose of tongkat Ali, another adaptogen that can help optimize hormone levels and balance, which can be especially valuable when dieting. Tongkat can also improve libido, which is always nice. I find the combination of tongkat and Ashwagandha provides a subtle but valuable mood elevation and reduction in stress/anxiety, which, again, can be helpful during a cut.
Forskolin has already been mentioned, and can be useful during cutting and lean bulking.
AlphaMax XT also contains a full dose of ferulic acid, which has been shown to improve mass and strength, which is valuable any time.
I do like it alongside a SERM because it will help control cortisol and prolactin, which is essential during PCT, while also increasing testosterone through the forkolin, 3,4 dinavil, tongkat ali and ashwagandha. Not to mention the full dose of tongkat ali helps with boosting libido.
Both AlphaMax XT and Super PCT are great options because they both contain ingredients to help with reducing cortisol, increasing libido, and increasing testosterone, which is why those are my two suggestions for an OTC product. It is cheaper than buying an OTC test booster and OTC cortisol supplement.Now obviously the reduce xt is for cortisol.

Yeah I've got my AI on hand haven't started yet I'm not very gyno prone at all so arimistane is plenty. But thanks I'll drop the reduce and go alphamax as it will be even a bit cheaper that wayBoth AlphaMax XT and Super PCT are great options because they both contain ingredients to help with reducing cortisol, increasing libido, and increasing testosterone, which is why those are my two suggestions for an OTC product.

If you do go with AlphaMax XT, then you would not need anything else, OTC wise, for cortisol. You could then drop the Reduce XT.
Depending on the cycle, I would suggest having a real AI on hand.
The general opinion on AM is that arimistane does naff all for estrogen, but is half-decent at reducing cortisol (which you apparently already have in Alpha). I love the stuff for dropping water weight and leaning out, but wouldn't rely on it as an AI.Yeah I've got my AI on hand haven't started yet I'm not very gyno prone at all so arimistane is plenty.

What do most use as an AI then? Something like arimadex or aromasin?The general opinion on AM is that arimistane does naff all for estrogen, but is half-decent at reducing cortisol (which you apparently already have in Alpha).

It depends on what your cycle consists of. Typically most users would use arimadex during their cycle as an AI, and depending on the cycle, during PCT as well. Alphamax XT contains a natural AI, but nothing as potent as a-dex. SERM's will also have anti estrogen properties, so using a properly dosed SERM with Alphamax XT should be sufficient if you aren't running any extremely harsh cyclesWhat do most use as an AI then?

I would have adex on hand, but you shouldn't need it. Run a solid on-cycle support supplement, and follow up with a SERM + Alphamax XT and you should be all set4 andro and halo is the cycle. 400/100 8 weeks and 5 weeks
Yeah that was my plan I'll get the arimadex because my next cycle of 4 andro and dimethabold will probably need it lolI would have adex on hand, but you shouldn't need it. Run a solid on-cycle support supplement, and follow up with a SERM + Alphamax XT and you should be all set

I would disagree here. Reduce XT is primarily designed for cortisol reduction, however Alphamax has Ashwagandha which is a cortisol management supplement, but not strictly used to drop cortisol. For instance, this data suggests it dropped cortisol by 4 points, over 3 points more than placebo over 60 days.Both AlphaMax XT and Super PCT are great options because they both contain ingredients to help with reducing cortisol, increasing libido, and increasing testosterone, which is why those are my two suggestions for an OTC product.

Thank you. AlphaMax and Reduce XT should be run together. IMO AlphaMax on it's own isn't enough for a PCT.I would disagree here.

In any case, it's still a good ingredient but take it for cort management not strictly for cortisol lowering
It's not enough FOR pct but it's enough when used DURING pct.Thank you. AlphaMax and Reduce XT should be run together. IMO AlphaMax on it's own isn't enough for a PCT.
Ashwagandha and DHAA, which is why I don't suggest any other cortisol lowering product with AlphaMax XT.I would disagree here.
