For those of you who do not know, 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)
Six weeks ago I received my bottle of liquid clenbuterol from a research chemical distributer. The bottle was 60 ml, 200 mcg/ml, green thick liquid. The day it arrived I took my first dose of 40 mcg, or .2ml. The stimulant feeling was very similar to adderall or ephedrine. Over the next week and a half I ramped by dosage up to 120 mcg. At about 80 mcg I began to feel greater sides than just the stimulant effect. My hands were shaky and during workout I was much more sweaty than usual. These side effects are all well document and typical so nothing to worry about.
I could tell during workouts and even during moderate activity that my heart rate was significantly elevated from usual, but it wasn't until I got my blood pressure checked in the middle of week 2 that I found it was 150/95 mmHg. This was very elevated and slightly nerve racking. Fortunately this was at the end of the second week. (I am cycling two weeks on and two weeks off)
After the first two week cycle I was down 7 lbs and 2 1/2 inches on my waist. I appeared more cut in the mirror and had not lost any strength. It was unclear to me whether there was any anabolic effect to clen, but at least it is known that it has an anticatabolic effect, so on a cutting diet muscle will generally be spared.
After discontinuing, it took approximately two days (which makes sense due to the 35 hour half life of clen) for my blood pressure and resting heart rate to return to normal. I took two weeks off using benedryl every night before bed. For those you who do not know it is widely thought that benedryl aids in clearing off the B2 receptors and therefore will help to reverse the down regulation they experience during clen use. I experienced no rebound in weight during that period.
I am now finishing my second two week cycle and the results have continued to come. I stopped increasing my dosage this time at 100 mcg in order to keep my blood pressure from increasing so drastically. I have lost an additional 4 pounds, while still gaining strength and muscle. At the end of these two cycles I have dropped my waist size by 3 1/2 inches. I am considerably leaner and am very pleased with these results.
It must be noted that I cleaned up my diet during this period, so it is unknown how what part of the weight loss can be attributed to that. I was on about -500 from maintainence, mainly protein and veggies. At this deficit I should have expected to see approx an lb a week. For all those who will inevitably post that this could have easily be done without clen: I love to lift, but I hate boring cardio. I also have shin splints which makes prolonged cardio result in pain walking for a day or two after. Using clen also was an incentive to eat properly, with the logic that if I am using a compound that have some negative effects on the body(I hope only while using) then why the hell wouldn't I make the most of it and watch everything I eat and keep it clean. So not only was it a means for increasing metabolism but also a motivator.
I hope this gives you an unbiased view of Clenbuterol. I have been really pleased with the results over the last six weeks and have gotten significant feedback from those around me about how much leaner I look. I hope I made it abundantly clear that it did not come without consequences: an elevated blood pressure even at a young age is no joke and resulted in headaches and a couple nosebleeds. All that to say, clen can work wonders when combined with some hard work, but it doesn't come without a cost which I hope people will remember.
