    Mega-Dosing Creatine -Anyone taking or have used 10g or more of creatine a day?

    Has anyone explored or attempted fifty grams per day or close to it ? Milos said it's totally okay to use this high amount,when carb loading, aka carb up, Coming into competition. I think I've seen a video of read in a magazine , maybe flex, Markus Rhul took huge doses of creatine daily.

    Bcaas still useful, between meals, intra ?

    Timing does matter. I don't take them on an empty stomach pre cardio like I used too. Between meals esp during training like today after a forty five mins or hour meal.

    Bcaas still useful, between meals, intra ?

    I'll have to look up that brand and compare pricing. Some bcaas are fermented and many are made from human hair. I used to buy fermented but now I don't hink it matters much. L glutamine I buy fermented bc it seems to help my stomach when i take it. Yes rule1 popular brand I used their...

    Bcaas still useful, between meals, intra ?

    Never took Mikes pro synthesis 17. They both cost the same , same brand. If it's been over an hour and a half or two hrs since I've eaten a solid meal I'll usually take easy or mix bcaas with eaas. Typically I wait longer for meal to settle on more demanding days. Example I just ate thirty...

    Bcaas still useful, between meals, intra ?

    Been using them twenty plus years. When eaas became the normal tens years ago or so, of course I understand every amino acid is best. That said say I have a solid meal ninety minutes pre resistance exercise, are bcaas a waste in intra shake, dextrose, creatine, taurine, whatever else you'd...

    Best non stim for fat loss

    Glp 1, I prefer tirzepatide, zepbound. Yohimbine isnt a stim per say but it can make one feel jittery , cold sweats. If used at low doses for a long time it seems to aid in keeping the fatloss off more stubborn area's. Im thinking of exploring it this offseason. I thinka cortisol...

    Mega-Dosing Creatine -Anyone taking or have used 10g or more of creatine a day?

    I'll spread it out every two or three meals, ideally around training. I've done it plenty times at five grams every meal, and that works too. Ive used micronized creatine mini over twenty years. Micronized creatine mono is a easier on the stomach than regular creatine mono, the smaller...

    Yes, good info. cystatin c is the best kidney test . I have a list written down with cystatin c on it, along with some others for when I visit pcp or possibly endo nurse assistant. John Jewett has a video that was and is helpful

    Mega-Dosing Creatine -Anyone taking or have used 10g or more of creatine a day?

    I don't take breaks I went down to five grams a day, most days, for a few months . This week started back at 10-20. Why would someone cycle it and go down to five grams ? Maybe theyve introduced GH , or climbed in mgs by five hundred.

    Mega-Dosing Creatine -Anyone taking or have used 10g or more of creatine a day?

Or Train EOD, and eod cardio I don't usually do that but sometimes think it's a good idea for giving tendons, joints a...

    Supplements to reduce wrinkles

    I prefer some sun , along with a face moisturizer. Trenton, and tazorac will add more glowing to the skin. The downside is I couldn't get hardly any sun , would have to wear short sleeve hoodies outside, and sunscreen and wasn't worth it. If I'm not getting sun, in deep winter, then I may do...

    Is is time for TRT for me?

    When you say fairly dialed in with diet, what does this mean? how many calories, protein carbs, fats per day ? I held good size at 200-315 mgs test levels, so its not everything. I think I saw some studies by Bill Roberts, if I remember correct, that 170 and under is when muscle mass starts...

    I have an older bottle of iconics neuro p5, same ingredients. I thought it was originally allo. Yes Patrick's line was very good and expensive. I still have a 6 oxo bottle like on the video with Ron Harris, Rick Collins. I used to throw away things bc I didn't want to be sentimental, and...

    Transdermal allopregnenolone

    Did Iconic changed the original formula ? bc I thought the original had allopregnenolone. PA , as in Patrick Arnold? Patrick consulted for many supplement companies and I'm not surprised if he made these. Yeah screw pip, not worth it. Pregnant women get it IV to help with postpartum...
