Which ECA Stack did you utilize, out of curiosity?
Click to expand...

Went to Wallgreens

Broncaid 2 x 12.5mg Ephedrine, Awake 200mg caffeine, asparin

Ive bought at Rite Aide too

i was dosing 50mg 3 x a day
8am 12pm 4pm


Typically the ECA stack is consumed two or three times per day in a 1:10:10 or 1:10:15 ratio of ephedrine:caffeine:Aspirin. These ratios vary across studies and across users but despite variance they all seem to be effective.[citation needed] Usually, no more than 25 mg of ephedrine, 200 mg of caffeine and 325 mg of Aspirin is consumed in a single dose. It is not recommended that the stack be taken past late afternoon as this may contribute to insomnia.

Weight 225.2lb - 1.8
 
2 WEEK REVIEW

This morning Day 15 concludes 2 weeks of Clenbuterol

Weighed in this morn @ 227.2 up 2lbs from yest however my waist is down 1.375" and my mid section 2" .... Im very happy with the Clen and feel that my workouts have become stronger as im not having to deal with the nauseating effect that the ECA can have on me @ high doses. Clerly i am able to tolerate high doses of Clen wothout any noticeable sides. Dose is up to 240mcg blood pressure 108 / 68 so all good there. I am definitely able to get my heart much higher with less intensity which has been great and has enabled me to turn many weight lifting sessions into cardio.

Strenght has also been great, no loss in strenght lifts all at highs, confident muscle loss is minimal if at all. I am seeing more defenition in arms and shoulders but to be expected the waist is the hardest and last to go but still good progress.. As you can see from yesterdays meal breakdown i have a lot of room to play with when it comes to calories and carbs..

In the next week i will be experimenting by cutting some carbs towards the end of the day and bumping the protein, if i can continue to loose the waist @ 0.75' a week then we are right on track :) Gonna go check the mailbox for my Anavar

Clenbuterol is a non-steroidal β2 adrenergic agonist with some structural and pharmacological similarities to epinephrine and salbutamol, but its effects are more potent and longer-lasting as a stimulant and thermogenic drug. It causes an increase in aerobic capacity, central nervous system stimulation, and an increase in blood pressure and oxygen transportation. It increases the rate at which fats are metabolized, simultaneously increasing the body's BMR. (taken from Wikipedia)
 
Day 15
227.2lb +2

Today is day of rest just 20mins HIIT. For non lifting days I cycle carbs down. Today I have dropped them a little lower than normal while keeping protein 1.7 x bodyweight

Kicking cycle off with an oral ive used in the past Spawn epi/tren and had great success with

Ive been sourcing for a while and just triple checking everything there but think im good. If so Test E will be individul vials of 250mg which will make life easy. Id also appreciate any suggestions re pinning, i will be doing this myself. Thoughts on adding grape seed oil and warming of syringes under hot water etc all suggestions appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Yea. Sacle seems a little bnit stuck but mirror says stick with the plan. Bottom line I have another 3 1/2 weeks to play around with diet so no rush. Hopefully VAR arrives today or tom. Like to get a week of that under my belt on the same diet and then re evaluate diet accordingly

Common Mr Postman

Awesome job brotha! I was talking to a friend who started his cycle of clen and a girl chimed in how she has been doing clen since she was 18 and I think she is 28 now. It made me feel slightly safer (as safe and using products like that can be) and might be something for me to consider in the future as I'm too young now. Then again this girl messes with t3 also, and never heard of the heart related side effects from overuse in the past 10 years so I don't know if she is a good reference haha.

I have read from multiple sources that extended use of clen causes irregular heart growth...idk how T3 plays a factor with it, but I wouldnt use her as a reference lol

--but at the same time, everyone is different, so you never know

I'd say she is the anomaly that hasn't died haha. t3 can shut down thyroid function or something, I don't know much about the subject but when she mentioned it everyone around her was like "why aren't you dead yet?". I've said a few times I'm more interested in clen's anti-catabolic properties. A few other people said they literally couldn't do cardio on clen, and just felt better doing cardio a few days a week and got similar results. I get quick results from cutting, so maybe I'm lucky like that. I dropped 13 pounds inside the month so far. 90% of that was water weight, I was ridiculously bloated and didn't realize it. Low carbs and constant water all day have helped that.

I loved doin cardio on clen...also she is female, clen might affect woman differently then males. I recently learned that the hard way, when doing low carbs you MUST keep water intake high lol. good job so far, I guess your an ectomorph?

If that was directed at me, umm I don't know where I fall. I don't fit any trait very well, except I'm definitely not an endomorph. I am not like those skinny as a rail ectomorph kids from high school, but I'm not a meaty mesomorph either. My body pretty much does whatever I want it to if I put the work in. I've only just finally stuck with the gym this last year and my diet wasn't the best. Along with a lot of cheat meals, I now realize I wasn't getting as many calories in as I thought. I made decent gains in my mind, but they could have been better. This next bulk after my cut will be balls to the wall strict downing as much as I can. I have pics up in my bulking 145-190 thread with a more recent back/waist shot.
 
Yea. I definitely enjoy cardio on Clen not a problem for me. I can see how it might be a factor if ur into long hight intensity cardio but for running boxing and cycling I have no complaints.

Clen can actually lead to cardiac cell death. I'm still trying to figure out why people are so high on clen. Yes, it works (at least in the short term), but it's really not worth it. I'd really be careful with using that high of a dose for multiple reasons. 1. Your receptors are going to be fried (even with keto/benadryl). 2. Don't forget that clen has a very long T 1/2 and continues to build up within your system.

Also, the whole anti-catabolic thing is complete non-sense. This is one of those bro-science legends that continues to live on throughout the years.

certainly there is no scientific evidence that supports the claim that Clen is anti-catabolic however there are way to many people claiming it to be so IMO for there not to be some truth behind the claims, i doubt you could find a single pro that would agree with you from the words of Lee Priest

"Clenbuterol, Stanozolol every second day and Nolvadex. And that's it. It is the same thing I used back in 1997, and you can verify that with Flex Wheeler. Flex at that time was asking me how did I get in shape and I told him that this is all that I used, and it worked."

Always an interesting topic tho if anyone wants to chime in

That is hardly anything compelling (and an appealing to authority fallacy) since he was using AAS.
 
Research Institute for Sports and Exercise Sciences, Liverpool John Moores University, Liverpool, United Kingdom.

High doses of the beta2-adrenergic receptor (AR) agonist, Clenbuterol, can induce necrotic myocyte death in the heart and slow-twitch skeletal muscle of the rat. However, it is not known if this agent can also induce myocyte apoptosis and whether this would occur at a lower dose than previously reported for myocyte necrosis. Male Wistar rats were given single subcutaneous injections of Clenbuterol. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect myocyte specific apoptosis (detected on cryosections using a caspase 3 antibody and confirmed using annexin V, single-strand DNA labelling and TUNEL). Myocyte apoptosis was first detected at 2 h, and peaked 4 h after Clenbuterol administration. The lowest dose of Clenbuterol to induce cardiomyocyte apoptosis was 1 microg kg(-1), with peak apoptosis (0.35 +/- 0.005 %; P<0.05) occurring in response to 5 mg kg(-1) . In the soleus, peak apoptosis (5.8 +/- 2 %; P<0.05) was induced by the lower dose of 10 microg kg(-1). Cardiomyocyte apoptosis occurred throughout the ventricles, atria and papillary muscles. However, this damage was most abundant in the left ventricular subendocardium at a point 1.6 mm, that is, approximately one-quarter of the way from the apex towards the base. beta-AR antagonism (involving propranolol, bisoprolol or ICI 118,551) or reserpine was used to show that Clenbuterol-induced myocardial apoptosis was mediated through neuromodulation of the sympathetic system and the cardiomyocyte beta1-AR, whereas in the soleus direct stimulation of the myocyte beta2-AR was involved. These data show that when administered in vivo, beta2-AR stimulation by Clenbuterol is detrimental to cardiac and skeletal muscles even at low doses, by inducing apoptosis through beta1- and beta2-AR, respectively.

All very interesting but Clenbuterol has also been proven to be Anabolic in horses so what gives

Horses have a receptor (the name escapes me right now) that is not prevalent in humans.
 
I think clen stimulates anabolism via beta-3 andrenergic receptors, which are MUCH more prevalent in animals than humans.

rats are used in FDA trials phase II and III however they are not approved until human trials are conducted. There is a very good reason for this, we are not rats and drugs VERY often fail to get final FDA approval because they act differently, some times adversely and some times in a beneficial way that no one ever expexted, I could quote you 100's of cases

So in that regard we really will never know unless human trials are conducted..... Aint gonna happen

In light of insufficient data Ill go with the Pros and Broscience for now on this one

I really do not see the point you're trying to make. There is really no sufficient data on either side so you're just siding with the information you find more comforting. Ostrich in the sand...

If im not mistaken it was you who claimed "Clen can actually lead to cardiac cell death" and "the whole anti-catabolic thing is complete non-sense" and now you admit "There is really no sufficient data on either side" except the word of every single pro out there and 1000's of seasoned body builders over the course of decades or atleast those who have admitted to taking AAS and the others are liars (pros that is)

emmm

damn that VAR's got a kick to it, remind me not to snort it next time
