What is causing the flushing from the granules? It keeps hitting me several hours later.

Tyga my man...you really on that low of fat macros?

I try to hit 65+g. Anything less and I can notice a big difference in gains and appearance. Granted, some of that difference is due to fat taking place of carbs in the macros, but I attribute a LOT to greater testosterone production. Studies have shown that low fat diets can reduce test production in normal males by quite a bit. I'm on my mobile but I can dig up some studies later if anyone is interested.

Yeah it's a lot of fat macros to give up, but I don't mind getting a little bit more fat and lowering the carbs. I love this stuff! If only capped PA wasn't expensive

I know x amount of fat (sat) increases LH/leydig cells. Im a competitive powerlifter that's leaning out right now, so I don't have a lot of fat macros to give up. Hell my fats were even lower than what they are now when I was prepping for my bb show.

Now- 52g ed
Bb prep- 35-40g

100gm+ /day of fat crew...dont you eat eggs or milk or red meat?
I don't drink milk and I eat read meat 2x a week. All I eat is egg whites because I like my fat content from other sources (avocados mainly but nuts, nut butters, coconut oil, sauces)

I'm a "flexible dieter" so I eat 80-85% bro foods through the day and have 15-20% kcal allotment to play with and essentially eat what I want.

Soon I'll try running the anabolic diet (which is mostly protein/fats most of the time) and then I'll ramp up the PA. That'll be fun stuff.

Lower your dose to 2 tbsp. There's no need to run it at 3-5 tbsp. Some just got that high because they can fit it in their fat macros. 2 tbsp should be getting you the 750mg minimum as well.

Oh I know.

I have room for 3tbsp, anything above that I sacrifice food choices (fats obviously)

More PA can't be a bad thing. I'm trying 3-4tbsp for 2-3 mo. Then I'll adjust.

I only have another month or so of cutting. Then it's perma-recomp

No need to run 3-5 tbs ? :)
Ofcourse he can stay at 750mg. But personaly, 750mg was "NOTHING" compared to higher doses.
If someone want most of PA supplementation, 750mg is not the best way to go :) but if some dont want to add more fat to their diet, I totaly understand.

Try to run ArA at 500mg then run ArA at 2g. Its like night and day :)

If you are concerned of Fat from granules, i suggest you to run caps containing Mediator PA. Such as muscletech Phospha muscle as example. It is much more expencive yes, but it will solve the fat "problem" :)

You don't have to tell me. I've ran both PA and especially ArA at different doses and know for the most part a higher dose is more beneficial. And of course ArA at 500mg isn't going to compare to 2 grams lol. But the doses used in studies are 1-1.5 grams, so dosing below that wouldn't make much sense. With PA, studies use 750mg (i know you know) so that's why I said a minimum of 750mg in my previous posts.

But if someone is having to sacrifice fat macros, then they probably should lower their SL dose IMO. Or buy an overpriced PA concentrated product.

Just curious, why is PA so frequently compared to ArA? Am I mistaken in thinking that they have two totally different methods of action? Is it simply because they're both fatty acids?

They're simply compared because they both give noticeable results.

They both have some legit studies behind them, and from my anecdotal experience with 4 tbsp of SL and 1.5g ArA (in the past, not stacked together), they work!

So clearly SL and PA provide muscle fullness and glycogen retention when on. Anyone notice significant body composition changes after coming off?

Yeah I actually do the granules about 30-60 minutes before I drink my pre workout. Just because that'd be a lot on the stomach

I'd get in the SL about 30-60 min prior to the workout to activate mTOR via PA.

Just keep in mind that the benefits of activating mTOR as kbayne is suggesting may not manifest (in a measurable perceivable sense) for months.

Yea, longer period of mTOR activating = more gains

I take them together pre workout regularly. In bulk/unflavored they don't taste the best together, but boy do they work well together. I haven't noticed any less effects in any aspect of my pre workout when adding the granules, only a better pump, as well as the non-acute (main) benefits of PA.

Loving Fearn so far. Between this and -epi I feel I can make good gains without resorting to hormonal "supplements".

The PA is most definitely making me retain some water. Diet hasn't changed but I'm 2-3lbs heavier

That was exactly what I noticed a week or so in. If I recall correctly I was up 1.8lbs with no caloric change.
