1.5g of ArA pre-workout is awesome

At first I was taking 1g (4 pills) every day and liking it a lot.

But 1.5g (6 pills) on workout days only is so much better. I'm stronger during workouts and my muscles are much fuller the next day.

2 bottles @ 6 pills per workout = 33 workouts... This will last 6.5-8.5 weeks if you're working out 4-5 times per week.

By the way, I'm taking X-Factor Advanced.

Later this summer I plan on stacking X-Factor Advanced + AlphaMax + Anabeta. Should be a great stack for looking lean, dry and full.
 
Agreed. 1.5 grams seems to be the sweet spot. I ran 2 grams and 1.5 grams. 2 grams 5x/week was insane results wise and was stacked with AB + Forskolin. But the price to run 2 grams 5x/week is pretty high.
 
Yeah, it really is awesome lol

I woke up this morning feeling jacked after a great workout yesterday with 1.5g Ara prior.
 
Damn, I am trying to stick to my guns on my current run and just dose 1g per workout. Then I come in here and read this and it is REALLY tough not to bump it up. I was using 1.25 (XFA) and loved it. Just trying to see how 1g treats me. I think I will give it another week and if I don't get the same results I got at 1.25, I will bump it up.
 
ARA is the ****.. :)

For me personally 1.5g is definitely worth it over 1g, while the jump from 1.5g to 2g is less noticeable.
 
I've never tried ara but i'm interested ... especially after this post.

What brand do you guys recommend?
The dosing is on workout days only, correct?
So I'd be taking 1.5 grams pre workout?

How soon before training do you take it?? I remember there's an ara thread somewhere around here, but I just got done working a twelve hour shift plus forty minute drive so I'm posting and passing out

X-Gels and X-Factor are the two main ArA product.

Jiigzz made an awesome ARA guide here. All you need to know is in that thread.

I have used both Xfactor and Xgels - they're the same so go with the cheapest.
 
1 scoop of hemavol and 1g of Ara was pretty good with pumps....but 1 scoop hemavol with 1.5 ArA is a bit better so far

at 1.5g's on Wednesdays after I've done chest and back, if i stretch i can feel basically every muscle in my upper body be sore and tight
 
love me some ArA. Stacking it with Dermacrine and a ton of other products right now. really enjoying it.

the derm and ArA is working out nicely? I'm waiting on an order and going to start something similar to that

wish i had more ArA because I want to stack it with Tropinol XP and Anabeta which i'm running in a month or two

yeah so far it is. I am also taking Growth Factor and a few other things though.

I am using the derm to lose some fat and the ArA to give me some muscle. Ive used Ara + Endosurge + Anabeta a few months ago and gained 5 pounds in 4 weeks.
 
Glad to hear you're loving your experience with X-Factor Advanced!
 
I noticed strength gains in a little over a week. Strength gains are legit with ArA.

NP should do a deal on ArA + Anabeta
 
Oh wow Ara is not really that cheap but I guess I'll give it a try soon. How does it compare to agmatine?

ArA will give much more permanent gains as it's fundamental to protein synthesis, where as Agmatine is more a pump supplement.

1g gives you good results but 1.5g makes you more excited to workout.

I hear 5g daily for a month makes your penis to grow 2".

lmao, hopefully nobody tries this to find out! ;)
 
this is why i decided to do hemavol with ArA, a bit of GMS and Agmatine...plus 1.5 ArA, I'm thinking about opening some NP agamtine and pumping it up to a gram though

pumps are good, really intense at the beginning....the pump doesn't seem to last very long with Ara ime
 
How long does ArA take to kick in? Moment you start it? A couple of weeks? I'm about a week in and can't say I've noticed anything yet.
 
Just finished one bottle of Xgels dosing 1g preworkout. I can't help myself now . . . bumping to 1.5g preworkout.

This is not true and should not be posted on this thread. I just measured and after taking 5g daily for a month I only got 1.75" of growth. Don't spread lies.

Kicks in during week 3 for me usually. Maybe 2.5

I'd say same. Vasodilation seems to occur from an acute dose pre-workout.

Yeah pumps kick in the first week for sure. Maybe even the first workout for some.
 
I felt nothing from Ara until I used 2g. I finally got to feel what others talked about. But I only had enough to run that dose for 3 more days. Thinking about running it again but starting at 2g and running it 5 x a week.

Absolutely, I get increased pumps and DOMS from the first dose. Takes a bit longer for the recomp, muscle hardening and changes on the scale.

It can take a few weeks like others have said but I just wanted to let u know that I don't get much of the ArA pumps that others get, just mild vasodialation but nothing crazy, so if you are worried because you haven't gotten the giant pumps, it doesn't mean it isn't working. Strength gains come pretty quick though. I also just crave more protein than usual as well starting in the second week. I have had a nice alpha feeling in the gym also but I don't know if that's from the ara or just me getting in the zone and being excited to get in a good workout.
 
I've noticed a slight pump, albeit nothing amazing. But then I'm also stacking with GMS, ALCAR, PeakBeta+, Anabeta and F95. My veins have always popped when i workout anyway so that's not much of an indicator. I do seem to be a bit more sore than usual, my left knee most noticeably (despite taking XFA, so standard version might see me worse in this regard), but again not incredibly so. Strength has not changed. I am only about 10 days in so far though, and just taking workout days so only 5 doses or so. I started on 4 caps, last two sessions have been 6. I'm not impatient though, so time will tell I guess.
 
I'm a week into ArA and the DOMS from my workout 2 days ago is incredible. My only Motivation for actually getting up out of bed was my morning glass of alphamine! Lol
