People talk a lot of trash on Laxogenin but I love it for high stress/ cortisol, or alongside high stim or fat burner stacks. Iconogenin is the best Laxogenin product I have come across, hands down.
My girl uses it whenever she finds herself with anxiety and literally within 1 minute of applying 1-3 pumps of the topical on wrists and inner forearm she feels relief. Pretty amazing use case we stumbled upon that has allowed her to replace prescription Xanax.
If you have higher cortisol you can probably use it every day (I like 3 pumps PWO) for a "cycle". I have done this and did find better pumps and gym performance, minor gains. It is quite synergistic with high stim pre or fat burners as it blocks the negative effects and allows for a less jittery experience. Perfect for a cutting stack/phase.
I suggest you buy a bottle, try a few pumps, you will feel it. It will either result in a feeling of calm desire to lift with mind muscle and pumped feeling (meaning your cortisol is high enough to justify it for an extended period) or chill you out too much(meaning you are probably lower cortisol and should use it more when you feel stressed or pair it with stims). Either way, I make sure we always have a few bottles on hand.
That said, the AET plus the Laxogenin might be overkill as they are similar. I prefer Laxogenin over AET as it seems to have a better "want to lift" feeling alongside the calm anti corti effect.
