    How important is eating on workout days?

    Just like one day of overeating won't make you fat, one day of undereating won't make you skinny. Buy some food and hit your macros tomorrow

    Clen + Ostarine + Cardarine

    To answer your calorie deficit question - no. I wouldn't not go any lower than 650 for starters. But this is also highly dependent on you knowing your maintenance calories. If you're currently eating maintenance, let's say 2400 for example, and not gaining or losing any weight. Dropping 650 or...

    Alpha max Xt

    There are a few that are close. Any particular reason for not just using Alphamax though?

    High dosing GDAs

    My recommendation would be to experiment with it and see how it works. More is not always better, but if you are consuming that many carbs in one sitting it might be beneficial. Just be mindful of digestion and stomach discomfort with a higher dose or stacking two products. I don't think you...

    Ergonine discontinued?

    IntraMax would be a perfect replacement. Tr1umph would work too, but it's a bit different with the addition of PA. IntraMax is a solid product that covers your daily staples

    Reduce XT while bulking

    I would use 2 caps per day. Try different times of the day to see what works best. I prefer to use ashwagandha before bed. I find that it makes me drowsy if I take it in the morning. But other users prefer it in the morning. I would try out different times and see how it makes you feel - there's...

    How are these ingredients for nutrient partitioning

    Definitely underdosed to use as a GDA. It might help to an extent, but not as effective as some other GDA products available. I would check out Slinmax

    Reduce XT while bulking

    Stacking these both for a bulk would be overkill IMO. I agree with the recommendation of holidng the Reduce XT until a recomp or cut. Ashwagandha may be all you need, so give it a try and see how it works for you. Let us know what the % standardization is on the ashwagandha when you get it. I...

    Why don’t I sweat anymore?

    If you're doing a powerlifting workout split you probably have longer rest periods. When I train for strength (5x5's or 3x5's) I don't sweat nearly as much, but the 1-3 minute rest allows for more intensity during your sets. Just make sure you aren't resting too long and spending unnecessary...

    Fat Burner for Yohimbine Sensitivity

    Yohimbine and Alpha Yohimbine work in similar ways, but they have different side effects. I like both, but typically prefer alpha-y because the side effects are much lower. With higher doses of yohimbine I feel anxious and get cold sweats, but with alpha-y I feel great. If you prefer alpha...

    Dosing of a new supp

    What's the name of the product? Before adding in berberine I would use it as directed on the label and see how it treats you.

    NON-STIM PREWORKOUTS???

    VasoMax and High Volume are my favorites for non-stim products. VasoMax helps a lot with focus, which is hard to achieve with other non-stim supplements.

    What's the best fat burning supplement available today??

    It isn't recommended to use both right away, but if you've used EC and are comfortable with your stimulant intake, adding in yohimbine can help target some of the more stubborn fat areas. If you decide to try EC+Y, make sure you start with a very low dose of yohimbine to assess tolerance. This...

    How effective is Follidrone 2.0?

    I appreciate the information. I always read and suggested that any type of anti-inflammatory should be spaced as far away from ArA as possible, even aspirin. Wasn't aware of COX2 inhibitors. But IMO, on the chance that it would negatively impact the benefits of ArA, I would choose to not use...

    What's the best fat burning supplement available today??

    Would cutting out all carbs and dropping 10 pounds in a week be a sustainable approach? No. Would you be able to keep the weight off and still enjoy life and live well? No. Would you be able to continuously drop 10 pounds per week consistently? No. My suggestion and advice is a recommendation...

    What is the best Muscle mass natural supplement?

    Welcome to the forum. What are your current stats? Height, weight, age, etc. As a natural lifter, your calorie intake will be the biggest factor in weight gain. If you're currently somewhat skinny, I would recommend tracking your food intake and increase calories until you're gaining appx. 1...
