calcium has a role in nerve transmission/muscular contraction. Anecdotally speaking, I notice a 15 to 20 percent increase in strengthWhat's the rationale for taking tums?

I feel the Tums don’t hurt my performance when I’ve added them, and certainly not Amento, but neither turns a 500lb deadlift day into 600 for me either. Just to help temper expectations.calcium has a role in nerve transmission/muscular contraction. Anecdotally speaking, I notice a 15 to 20 percent increase in strength
Well said. 10-15 percent is what I actually meant. But even so, your point remains. But I habe routinely went up 10lbs or so on isolation exercises and I notice less of a mind muscle connection without itI feel the Tums don’t hurt my performance when I’ve added them, and certainly not Amento, but neither turns a 500lb deadlift day into 600 for me either.

Yes definitely; this is where I notice both Tums and Amento helping the most, more isolation or contraction-focused work. I may not pull even 40 more lbs on a deadlift, but taking a tricep extension from 50 to 55lbs, 10%, is definitely something I’ve seen many times. There is definitely value.Well said. 10-15 percent is what I actually meant. But even so, your point remains.

So when you said tums you mean calcium with amentoflavone combo or something else?Well said. 10-15 percent is what I actually meant. But even so, your point remains. But I habe routinely went up 10lbs or so on isolation exercises and I notice less of a mind muscle connection without it
Perfectly I understand 100%I don’t want to get too off topic in the Prime thread, especially because Prime itself seems quite good for strength.
That said it will really depend on what you mean by strength, low rep or maximal singular efforts are going to be different than strength at higher reps or repeated efforts, things that more acutely benefit these effects or those that lead to better training responses over time for better gains, etc.
I personally never saw much from Calcium Carbonate (tums) and am a little skeptical the Calcium in that will lead to benefits on Calcium’s role in contractility in the same way we see potential mechanisms in Caffeine and Amentoflavone (muscle specific Ca release from ER). The carbonate may show benefits to buffering and I’ve seen some data on decreasing soreness and some data in women on increasing performance and therefore I think long term it might be benefit, especially depending on dietary intakes. I just personally didn’t see nearly as much benefit as something like Amentoflavone in acute aspect (one of the more effective short term lower rep strength boosting ingredients for me).
It kicks in at around week 3 to 4 and can be run indefinitely. 2 months minimumHey guys. What’s the overall consensus on time for prime to kick in? Around the 3 week mark? Best to run for 2-3 months?
Why a Tums?Yup 4 caps preworkout with a tums is my go to for immediate strength increases. Plus it helps with my overall mood, I love it. Been on it for 2 years straight.
Why a Tums?
SUPER.Go aheadIm on my second bottle of Prime XT and its been in my top 3 supps, all my lifts has gone up, pump all day...like im training biceps and have a great pump in the triceps too, will make this a staple, great work Steve. Will buy Alpha-One to stack with t

What are your thoughts on adding Prime to an Alpha One + UrsaBolic run? Also would there be any synergistic or inhibitory effects of supplementing Curcumin alongside the aforementioned supps?Thank you. I'm really glad that you're enjoying it.
It should make an awesome stack with Alpha One.

For strength only, what is the better supplement, prime or phosphatidic?
I totally agree!!!!For most people, I would say Prime XT.
Different people respond differently to different things, so there may exceptions to that, but overall I would say Prime XT.
I tried both independently and trained similarly at a similar bodyweight and tracked strength. Both improved strength, but Prime was slightly better for me.For strength only, what is the better supplement, prime or phosphatidic?
so i just checked this product out and it comes 60 caps but have to take 6 caps a day so the whole bottle only last 10 days is this correct?
oh yes i read it wrong. it is 180 caps but suggested use is 6 caps per day so the bottle is 30 days.No. The bottle is 180caps so 60 servings, each serving being 3 caps. I think you read the label wrong.
Yup you got it , people are using 6-9caps a days.oh yes i read it wrong. it is 180 caps but suggested use is 6 caps per day so the bottle is 30 days.
I’m already noticing strength gains, but also aggression. I’ve lost my temper several times already and I’m usually relatively mellow. Does the aggression part settle down over time? Might have to stop this if not.
Balance it out with ashwagandhaI’m already noticing strength gains, but also aggression. I’ve lost my temper several times already and I’m usually relatively mellow. Does the aggression part settle down over time? Might have to stop this if not.
I've heard of people claiming those "sides" with OTC test boosters... I've noticed no aggression increase at all while on Prime!I’m already noticing strength gains, but also aggression. I’ve lost my temper several times already and I’m usually relatively mellow. Does the aggression part settle down over time? Might have to stop this if not.
I might be an outlier. I agree with the people that say that they have more of an alpha feel, and my sense of well being is much better than usual. I had the same thing happen when I took Inhibit E, and never had anything like that with test boosters or even old school PH back in the day. Just something I’ll keep a mental note of for myself, but I can tell already Prime is going to be a great supplement.Hopefully more people will respond if anyone has experienced that and let you know.
That's a hard one for me to answer because we haven't had anyone report aggression with it; we've had a lot of people report increased libido and some people say they feel better and stronger in day to day life things, but no one say that it impacted their mood negatively or increased aggression.
I think there was someone in this thread or another one that said how it increased his aggression in the gym but made him more positive outside of the gym and asked me about why that would be, but I haven't had anyone say that it made them more aggressive in general.
I'm not doubting you on it making you feel that way, it's just rare.
We have a lot of people that request supplements to increase aggression, and Prime XT is never one that I'd even thought of recommending for that purpose.
I would but it jacks up my BP.Balance it out with ashwagandha
Really? First time earing this try maybe other calming herb like camomilleI would but it jacks up my BP.
I noticed slight increases after 2 weeks and really noticed it starting to add up at 4 weeks and beyond. I also really liked PA XT for strength if you’re trying to squeeze a little more out of the run.Just started out a 3 month run with Prime Xt. I am looking forward to the strength gains as I have wanted to hit 315 on bench for a couple of years now and the most I have gotten is 305. I am wondering how long before the strength gains start to hit.

i should mention that i saw these massive gains when: prolactin was at 20 on a scale of 4-22. test was at 454 on a scale of around 250-920. shbg was high at around 58 on a scale of 16-55 as of several months ago. alot of places would consider that low-T all things considered. also, immediately before starting another strength supplement experiment, i saw a considerable rise in my barbell bench (10lbs), flys (10lbs), dips (26lbs), incline bench +20lbs, steep incline dumbell +10lbs as of 12.11.24. i cant conclude its from prime, considering recent efforts to raise my test may have succeeded (im expecting results soon), but i have to consider the possibility that this could be a scenario where the full benefits of prime are achievable when test is in a sufficient range. there is also the fact that i increased 300-500 my calories a few weeks ago. while i saw massive strength gains with prime for many lifts without changing my diet at all. i have to consider that i had yet to try increasing my calories with it. i can certify that previous increases in calories just made me fat. there is another explanation that when i lost weight from the 150mg forskolin, i didnt lose strength after losing 10lbs. from this more muscle in inferred and so from there maybe increased strength became evident only when more calories were consumed. sorry i cant clarify on that, but ive seen enough to warrent Prime XT as one of my staples already so...whats it been, 8 months of continuous prime use now for me? i can see massive development in key areas where i saw strength increases. more size across the board as well.

Different lighting kind of ruins the comparisonsept 2023: first pic
april 2024: Prime XT released
December 202: 2nd pic after 8 months of continous Prime XT usage. THe only real bodybuilding supplement ive responded to and kept with since then is forskolin at around 150mg/day
yeah. its what i got, i think people can see the giant lats poppling out and the upper chest developement. i wouldnt say the lighting was drastically different; the ater pic just came out dark; maybe a feature with my newer phoneDifferent lighting kind of ruins the comparison
