Yeah, great thanks.if you shower after workout then after shower.
run 2 bottles then do a serm + sustain alpha...as easy as it is to get serms+how cheap they are it would be unwise not to use one, imo.Would a serm be needed for alpha one or an otc would suffice?

serms are really easy to acquire and reasonably cheap, i would recommend at least having one on hand.Bit of conflicting info on Alpha Seven. Does this need a SERM or would OTC Pct like Sustain Alpha and MTest or K1ngs Blood do the trick?
imo, ultra hard is more upscale than ultra epi due to androsterone, which is a high end ingredient.Most of curiousity, when do you recommend Ultra-Hard vs Ultra Epi?
1-dhea[andro] is very different than androsterone. i would recommend icon one if you are looking to bulk, and alpha seven if looking to cut or recomp.What is the difference between 1-DHEA in Icon One vs androsterone in Alpha Seven? Aren't they the same thing?
Thanks brother1-dhea[andro] is very different than androsterone. i would recommend icon one if you are looking to bulk, and alpha seven if looking to cut or recomp.
7-Keto is not suppressive. Androsterone is about as minimally suppressive as you can get. I couldn't imagine a scenario where androsterone would actually shut someone completely down. An OTC PCT should suffice. Hell no PCT might he fine but I would never do or recommend that. Sustain Alpha or especially our TRS stack would work just fine. That all said; A serm is a fool proof plan, and should be taken into account when running any cycle.Bit of conflicting info on Alpha Seven.

Androsterone is one of a few two step precursors to DHT. It is the cousin to Epiandrosterone, with very similar effect but anecdotally is slightly more anabolic and better for strength, as were Epiandrosterone has more neuro effects. DHT is known best for its masculinizing effects such as facial hair growth and libido/erection quality, as well as muscle hardening and increased energy. Androsterone is also minimally supressive if really at all.What is the difference between 1-DHEA in Icon One vs androsterone in Alpha Seven? Aren't they the same thing?

1-Andro is a two step precursor to 1-Testosterone. It is your most anabolic andro and increases lean muscle mass really well. It is much more supressive than Androsterone, and has more side effects, but that comes with the use of stronger compounds. That said; suppression is still very light.
I totally agree. I became a Epiandro and Androsterone-fan during the PP era back in the days.imo, ultra hard is more upscale than ultra epi due to androsterone, which is a high end ingredient.
thighs and the back of the knees/upper calves and lower hammies. Inner bicep and forearm are also great...if they’re availableOk I woke up today and I’m burnt to a crisp, really bad sunburn on my upper body. I always applied transdermals on my delts, chest, stomach....
whats places do you guys recommend other than the above, tops of feet? Plums?
Great, legs are fine. Arms are a no go, My Irish milky white skin is a beautiful fire red at the momentthighs and the back of the knees/upper calves and lower hammies. Inner bicep and forearm are also great...if they’re available
it's always good to have options....I totally agree. I became a Epiandro and Androsterone-fan during the PP era back in the days.
No pissing on Epiandro, I like that one as well and I find the combination of them works best for me, even if I need to be careful with the dosing since I tend to get anxious on higher doses these days.
The question was more like, why one would go with Ultra Epi when you have access to Ultra-Hard?
I was just thinking about the reason behind having both products in line, since the are so similiar.
As I said, nothing bad with either of them, I’m a fan, I was just curious
you might try shins also, i've been seeing nice results using shins as a alternate application site-very thin skin there.Great, legs are fine. Arms are a no go, My Irish milky white skin is a beautiful fire red at the moment
Will give it a try thanks.you might try shins also, i've been seeing nice results using shins as a alternate application site-very thin skin there.
Most likely two different pump lots.I didn’t notice on my first 2 bottles but now the next 2 bottles have arrived I noticed one starts at 120 pumps, the other about 125 pumps?
good info.Once the bottles are filled, there's a valve that needs to be pressed/snapped closed on the pistons (the piece that moves up the middle of the bottle pushing the gel out). Sometimes the valve requires more pressure to snap closed - when this happens and we have to manually do it - this often drives the gel into pump mechanism of the bottle and not just in the body of the bottle. This will create some variance in the apparent fill level of the initial bottle.
I am sitting on 2-bottles of ICON One. My two friend began it a month ago and are seeing some nice gains. I plan to start my run in 2-weeks and run it solo, but I am also thinking about stacking it with Alpha Seven the last month. Seems like a little extra test base would kick things up a notch. Any thoughts? I am going for a re-comp, with the hopes of losing some fat.imo, ultra hard is more upscale than ultra epi due to androsterone, which is a high end ingredient.
Do it. Im on my last week of Alpha 7 and I think it will be a staple in all my future runs now. Especially if you are going for a recomp as well.I am sitting on 2-bottles of ICON One.

I have not tried Sustain Alpha, Im about to though. However, I have used OL Super PCT for mild/mid PH runs and had great results in the past.I could be wrong, but I think you'll need something a fair whack stronger than the TRS stack for PCT following Icon One, and I personally wouldn't use Derma In PCT as it's mildly suppressive in itself.
That would be a nice solo run, but use Sustain Alpha for your PCT not at the same time as Ultra Hard.Wish I could try Icon One, but last time I used a 1-Androsterone product I had really bad allergic reactions.
Considering running Ultra Hard for 8 weeks for a recomp (with the Sustain Alpha promo deal). Is this a viable choice?
From the Strongsupplement site:I’ve been trying to find the amount of 1-DHEA in an Icon One dose. Are y’all keeping that close to the chest?
Hummm, OL use to have 110mg per pill of andro 1, with a recommended dose of 220mg. My buddy just ran Alpha One and said it was good, but no where near what his old OL runs were like.From the Strongsupplement site:
5 Pump Serving:
112.5mg 1-DHEA
94.5mg DHEA
18mg Pregnenolone
Most logs I’ve seen have good results with ORAL 1-DHEA are at 330 mg (West Texas A&M study). I’m not sure how TD application compares. I would think greater absorption with TD assuming it has a good carrier.Hummm, OL use to have 110mg per pill of andro 1, with a recommended dose of 220mg. My buddy just ran Alpha One and said it was good, but no where near what his old OL runs were like.
Guess IF needs to update their site bc the exact mg dose for Ultra Hard, Alpha Seven, Ultra EPI and Alpha Seven are listed.
The gauge on the side of the bottle is just a guide to estimate how much is left. It's the same gauge on all the iconic bottles.Trying to figure out the serving level on ICON ONE.
So is the side label wrong or is the webpage wrong?
- Webpage says, "At 5 pumps per day, a full bottle of ICON ONE should last roughly 28 Days."
- Bottle label shows 130 servings, which is 26 days.
Frankly, 1-dhea is known to make people feel like garbage! We wanted to release a solid profile offering great recomp, while minimizing the negative impacts of 1-dhea. The feedback on Icon One has been overwhelmingly positive. We could have released a higher dosed 1-dhea topical but I don't think it would have offered the user experience we were looking to offer our customers.Hummm, OL use to have 110mg per pill of andro 1, with a recommended dose of 220mg.

Right on, I know a lot of guys that have had issues with andro 1 for sure. Also, I know with gels you need less, absorption is better and are they are better on the body.Frankly, 1-dhea is known to make people feel like garbage!

plus the added preg/dhea is a real bonus for minimizing sides!!!Frankly, 1-dhea is known to make people feel like garbage!

Awesome, I have not heard of anyone having sides from Icon One outside of a friend with some lethargy around week 5. However, Ultra Hard is a perfect extra test base to run with Icon One. Although Icon one already has a test base built in, which imo is great if you want a one product run. Save a lot of $$ vs stacking 3 bottles.I caved and have 2 bottles each of Ultra Hard & Sustain Alpha on the way. Hoping to get this 54 yr old body back under control (like my beer too much).
Had a great run about 4 yrs ago of 1-Andro, 4-Andro & Epi stacked (with Virtus)...but haven't been able to tolerate 1-DHEA since.
very good plan...i ran icon one solo for 1 bottle then added alpha seven with 2nd bottle-the ultra hard will be great for your last 5 weeks...i gained 7lbs of very lean muscle and increased weight and volume on all lifts, which i have maintained.Awesome, I have not heard of anyone having sides from Icon One outside of a friend with some lethargy around week 5.

I am using 4-pumps of Icon One now and have a single bottle of Ultra Hard coming. Plan on using Ultra Hard at 3 pumps per day for the last 5-weeks of my run.
