Post Cycle Support/Stoked FAQ
Q: What is Trans-reveratrol?
A: Trans-resveratrol is a natural antioxidant that comes from wine grapes. It has many uses including purging free radicals, inhibiting estrogen, and raising testosterone as seen in many independent studies. It is this compound which researchers believe leads to the health of the French people that eat a high fat diet.
Q: What is Icariin?
A: Icariin comes from the extract of Horny Goat Weed and has been shown to raise testosterone in independent lab tests.
Q: How do you dose Post Cycle Support?/Stoked??
A: 2 in the am and 2 in the PM. Stoked? can be taken 90 minutes pre-workout for a great pump effect.
Q: Why do you have two identical products with different names?
A: Some folks wanted a product to take between cycles so we named the product Stoked? to avoid confusing PCT and between cycle products.
Q: What benefits does Stoked? offer me for my supplementation program?
A: It has been reported that Stoked? increases the pump you get when taken approximately 90 minutes pre-workout. Stoked? will also help to control estrogen, boost testosterone and cleanse the system of mass robbing free radicals.
Q: What is PCT?
A: A PCT regimen is what you take after a cycle of steroids, injectible or oral. It is short for Post Cycle Therapy.
Q: What is a SERM?
A: A SERM is an Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator. Basically a SERM is used to prevent estrogen from binding to breast tissue after a cycle of steroids. This process of estrogen binding to breast tissue makes the tissue grow and forms what are commonly referred to as "man boobs" or "moobs". A medical term is gynecomastia or "gyno". Certain classes of steroids will aromatize while you take it making more estrogen which increases the chances of developing gyno. A SERM is used to counter the higher levels of estrogen so they don't attach to breast tissue estrogen receptors and cause gyno.
Q: How can I use Post Cycle Support? in my PCT regimen?
A: Post Cycle Support? can be run in place of a SERM or as a test booster along side of your SERM.
Q: Can I use Post Cycle Support? for cycles other than Epistane or its clones?
A: Yes. In combination with other PCT products Post Cycle Support? makes a great base for your PCT. It has been reported that Post Cycle Support? has been the base for many successful PCT's for compounds other than Epistane.
Q: What Compounds can I use Post Cycle Support? for?
A: Post Cycle Support? seems to be best suited for Oral cycles. It was originally designed as a PCT for Epistane and its clones. It has been used successfully as PCT after Bold (1,4AD), P-Plex (Pherplex Clones), and 19-Norandrostenadione products such as Trena. Post Cycle Support? makes a great base to any PCT. Each PCT will have different components due to the compounds and their side effects and the discussion of such is outside of the scope of this document.
Q: What makes Post Cycle Support? a good choice for PCT?
A: Post Cycle Support? contains Trans-resveratrol which has been shown to have estrogen antagonistic properties in breast tissue in independent studies. Post Cycle Support? also contains Horny Goat Weed (Icariin) which is a natural test booster. Trans-resveratrol is an anti-oxidant as well helping to cleanse unwanted toxins (free radicals) from the body created by strenuous exercise.
Q: Can Post Cycle Support? protect someone who is prone to gyno from getting it from a designer cycle?
A: Post Cycle Support? could not make such a claim. It would probably be prudent to say that no product could claim to protect anyone from getting gyno, let alone someone that is prone to it. In theory, these products could possibly help to avoid symptoms and aggravation.
Q: How does oral Trans-resveratrol differ from Trans-dermal?
A: Aside form the obvious, Trans-dermal products don?t contain Quercetin and Pepperine to aid in absorption and digestion.
Q: What is a Pulse Cycle?
A: Pulsing is a method of taking a steroid where you ingest the oral between two and four times a week on workout days. The theory is that you will have enough off time to return to normal and make your PCT easier.
Q: How can I use Post Cycle Support? for my pulse cycle?
A: Post Cycle Support? can be used on your off days as an estrogen modulator as well as a test booster. It can also be used as a PCT product taken after your pulse cycle is finished.
Q: What is an NHA Stack?
A: The term NHA stands for Non-Hormonal Anabolic. It refers to any supplement that is anabolic in nature without it being hormonal. Meaning, there are no pre-cursors or hormones themselves within the product. In essence it is what most refer to as "natural" supplements.
Q: Is an NHA stack right for me?
A: It depends... If you are a healthy individual cleared by your physician, have a well-planned diet, and training regimen then YES! A NHA stack could be right for you. Many individuals should not be on or do not want to take hormonal products, thus an NHA stack is a very nice alternative that can sometimes provide equally as satisfying results.
Q: What is an example of a good NHA stack?
A: An Arachidonic Acid (AA) product such as X-Factor? by Molecular Nutrition and a testosterone booster such as Activate Xtreme? by Designer Supplements would stack synergistically with Stoked? for an incredible NHA stack. You would get the benefits of a testosterone boost, estrogen control and and putting your body into an anabolic state. This is one example as there are many other non-hormonal products that would stack synergistically with Stoked?.
Q: How old do I have to be to take Stoked??
A: Stoked? is safe to take for all ages.
Q: Is dosing weight dependent?
A: No. We have seen people dosing as high as 10 caps/day with no adverse effects.
Q: Are there any side effects from Trans-Resveratrol?
A: None have been reported.
Q: Can I take Stoked?/Post Cycle Support? on an empty stomach or with food?
A: The products can be taken with or without food.
Q: Do I need to take time off between cycles of Stoked?/Post Cycle Support??
A: You can take the products continuously although like any product that raises Testosterone cycling is recommended in intervals of 8 weeks.
Q: How much time should I wait between taking doses?
A: The optimal time between doses is 8-12 hours.
