1) What is the best time to take EndoAmp in order to lower cortisol from training?
Is the effect acute; that is, does it need to be taken pre-workout in order to lower cortisol from training, or could it be taken at any time of the day as long as you consume a dose each day?

2) would it be best to take a dose first thing in the morning in order to control cortisol on non-training days, or would you want to wait closer to the early afternoon cortisol spike to take it?

3) any idea how long it takes to get into your system after a dose?

4) Finally, which do you think is a stronger cortisol reducer, B-AET or EndoAmp. This is VERY important to me as I have clinically elevated cortisol and have been using B-AET for quite some time with good success.

Thanks,

I love endoamp...it has been staple for me for quite some time-I dose 2 1st thing in morning and 1 before bed.

b-AET is the stronger cortisol reducer, but endoamp would definitely help, plus all the neuro benefits .
 
Appreciate the response. Yes, I thought that B-AET would probably be the stronger of the two in terms of cortisol reduction, and it has both indirect (through lowering of cortisol) and direct effects on the immune system.

Do you have any idea the timing of EndoAmp on training days? Is the effect acute, requiring that the EndoAmp be taken specifically pre-workout, or is the effect chronic only necessitating that the EndoAmp be taken each day regardless of when?

Thanks,

Is there a known half-life for PS--if that's even the correct concept in this context?

I just take mine in the morning on the days I need it and feel great all day. I personally don't consider it a "timing" or workout supplement. It's a well being supplement for me that will benefit not only training but your entire day.

nailed it...2 in the mornings gives me a great mental boost and feel good effect...1 right before bed helps me fall asleep faster and stay asleep.

the acute effect I get from endoamp is within 15-20 minutes of taking 1st thing in mornings the fogginess clears from my head and I think clearer. then when I workout I am more focused and the mind muscle connection just seems to click....I am a big fan of endoamp, although I have ran low dosed Invictus[b-AET] with it for added benefit of immune system boost.
 
Considering your situation and the particular ingredients I would suggest trying entirely pre-workout to at least see how that goes for you.

The Alpha-GPC in particular lends to a pre-workout dosing being pretty beneficial. It has been shown to improve isometric strength taken 60-minute pre-training and improved Growth Hormone response to training and Peak Power when taken 90-minute pre-workout. Alpha-GPC is something you'll "feel" a decent bit too as it is a common Nootropic which should heighten focus and concentration as well (again something I like pre).

The PS is a little bit more "lenient" in dosing, especially considering the full dosing in this product. 800mg has been shown to decrease the training induced cortisol increase. So if you are looking for max benefits around a workout that is where I would start.

Alternatively any time you feel are "higher" stress periods would be when I would opt for the product as well. Possibly in the AM (I also like Alpha-GPC as a morning boost and take PS with it during certain times of year) and the rest pre-workout if training later in the day.

PS also has some mental benefits as well, so I generally find the combo to give decently acute benefits, but the PS does seem better longer term and Alpha-GPC more "right now".

Solid stuff I bet you'll enjoy.

you forgot to mention that code THEBIGT gets 25% off at iconicformulations.com...oh well no ones perfect, lol.

seriously thanks for taking the time for all of the detail of ingredients, much appreciated!!!

Thank you very much for the reply. Thinking about it, it seems to me that the PS will be more of a long term supplement as it is a consituent of cell membranes and will require some time, I would think, to achieve levels sufficient to influence phospholipid turnover in cell membranes.
I'll look at the study you linked on PS and training as I can't remember if they state if the effects were immediate, or only after a certain length of consistent daily use.

Thanks,

About to order this! Would 3 pills am and .5 ml Invictus before bed be too much.

🤔 I am the opposite. Some of my best sleep was on Invictus .5 ml b4 bed.
