Taurine and Back Pumps

[Luke667]

I've just received 50 capsules of 1000mg of taurine for my planned cycle... now...should i take 1000mg every day while on...or should i take only if/when i get back pumps?

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Besides taurine is good for bodybuilding anyway.

1000mg = 1 gram, people reccommend taking 5-7 grams a day of this stuff from what I've read. I would start out at like 3 grams a day if it doesn't help just up the dose. You should be getting back pumps from this so I would just take it everyday.

should taurine be cycled? would i be okay to take 3 or 4g/day for two or three months straight?

sorry, I was in a weird mood. My point still stands though, you don't cycle whey protein or BCAAs so why cycle one of their constituents (for whey anyway)? No need to cycle amino acids is the bottom line.

Taurine is not a true amino acid actually.

I have taken taurine for the last six months 5g/day and just did a superdrol cycle and had absolutely no problem with back pumps.

ya, its a derivative of cysteine. But most think of it as an AA.

most scientific literature even lists it as an AA. Some people just split hairs for fun I guess.
