Is the c and a needed in eca?

[Jeff5886]

I use primatene to help burn fat on a recomp. I am wired from coffee all day do I really need the caffeine and aspirin? Wuld I still burn just as much fat if I just take the ephedrine?

Well you're already getting the caffeine then. You could try the aspirin with and without and see how you do. Or you can just do the E and C and you'll be fine. The point of the aspirin is to promote and prolong the affect of E. Some argue that E by itself won't do anything, but seeing as you're already getting the caffeine from the coffee, you'll have 2 out of 3.

I think you need the c, I want to say I read on hotnfit they work together. Without the caffeine the ephedra doesn't help with fat loss. I would just time your coffe with the doses of primatene in your case. You don't need the a, but I would add some fish oil to help with blood pressure. When I use ec, I use Bronkaid and replace one of the caffeine servings with one of my preworkouts.

The C works synergistically with the E, but there are studies showing that E alone created an average of an extra 2.2 lbs of fat loss per month. Pretty significant if you ask me. The A is by no means necessary.

If you don't want the A, take the E/C with grapefruit juice :hypnotized:

No, you don't need the C and A. However, as already mentioned, you're getting caffeine with your coffee. You could also look into using something like Alpha-T2 (for the alpha yohimbine) for the A. I have done such a twist on the ECA stack, not using the actual "accepted" ECA stack, but made my own variation of it.

ECY (yohimbine) is a common variation people have been using for years. As was mentioned...go with the alpha version of yohimbine if you run it. The other versions of yohimbine can have some nasty sides

You dont need the aspirin

I would keep the C, but drop the A. You can always split your caffeine tablets in half (assuming you have tablets) to lower the dosage given your coffee intake.

keep an eye on blood pressure if you use yohimbe with ephedrine.

caffeine can help speed up the thermogenic effect of ephedrine, but ephedrine works fine on it's own.
