Lol I don't lie bro, but obviously your one experience speaks for all ;)

Have you actually emailed globegistics? Your package may be held up in domestic customs, and not "in limbo".

Here's the response

"Hello,

The reason this tracking number is not recognized is because the company you purchased this item from shipped this parcel through a non-traceable service. This means that tracking is not required on any other site, nor will tracking populate once it has left our facility.

Have a great day,

Haha dude not your fault at all. I wasn't ripping on you. I just meant 10 days you experienced wasn't the case for me. Not implying any lies

Will Ara help on endurance ? Maybe at 2g or more?
Click to expand...

Unlikely to IMO.

It can affect strength output, and over time as your muscle grows/adapts it may get easier, so you could push more reps an an example. But this would be a slow change.

Where it really shines is in hypertrophy, and it can potentially raise strength output

I'm pretty sure he means endurance, as in - bicycle/running... so a definite no there :D

What is the standard / safest amount of time off between 50 day cycles?
Click to expand...

IIRC, it's 50 *Workouts*. Unless you train every day, you'll be using it longer than 50 days. I don't think anyone knows the ideal "off time", so I'd go with 60 days... heck, maybe 90? Systemic inflammation is not something you want to happen often. JMO.

Totally. I'll be using it workout days only. And still taking my fish oils 8 hours outside of ARA so hopefully it'll balance out inflammation a little and still utilize the ARA during my workout and keep isolated to muscular inflammation if taken 45 mins before with a L carnitine salt and emulsifier like SL. I read mixed reviews about it causing systemic inflammation or not. Apparently the researched dose of 1g to 1.5g post workout on 50 workout days doesn't dip into the systemic profile based on studies. No changes in blood work indicating systemic inflammation
 
I'm on a natty stack That have X-Gels(ARA) in it.

I just dose on workout days. My plan was 50 workout days with 1000 mg(4 caps)

I woke up for like yesterday with a lot of pain in both My forearms. I think Its a inflammation.

Have had the same pain before And got rid of It with caps called (voltaren) That My doc gave me. Its Been like 2 years.

Should I take a break ? Or some other tips?
I Train 4-5 times a week. :/

I'm on My 37/50 workouts.

Other stack contain:
Epicat (18 days in)
Laxogenin (18 days in)
Or1gin (3 days in)
PA (1 day in)

Thanks for all help.
Grateful for all advice :-)

Take some time off and see if the issue goes away. If it does, I guess it's up to you if you want to hop back on or not. But at least it'll tell you if it's the ARA that's causing it.
Jiigzz may be of more help on this issue

The pain is not That bad, That I cant train. I Do take a joint support (animal flex) but I think, Its only 13 days left of the Ara. Maybe just Get thru it ! I Will try train Chest to day, with all the supplements. :-)
Thanks for the answer!

Just keep an eye on it. I always have some type of joint / muscular pain that is attributed to imbalances from playing football and lifting at such a young age and not taking care of myself (warming up, stretching etc). You may want to go see a physiotherapist or someone who specializes in sports med to see the root cause of your issue. Could be that you strained your forearms with a movement you weren't used to. Good luck and be careful
 
So I have a question


I am having surgery on my scalp on the 21st. I'm assuming I should not be taking ARA leading up to and following the procedure? Anyone have input on this? It's an FUE hairline restoration to be specific

Thanks for all the advice.

I decide to run thru. Its 12 days left.

Took Ara today for My Chest workout, dident feel much pain. So I Will drop Bicep workout, let the forearms rest. :-)

Id just save them until after, just to be sure. While you may be safe using them around that time, better to be safe than sorry!

Yeah ur right. Unfortunately I'm 2 days in right now. I may just keep the dose at 1g and see how it goes. If I have any issues I'll stop using.

Thanks for the response!

How long had you been using Ara before the pain kicked in?
 
bb333 said:
37 days, it says ;)
Click to expand...

Haha! I missed that.

In that case, did the doctor diagnose anything like tennis elbow or golfer elbow (lateral and medial epicondylitis, respectively)? If so, the Ara may have contributed to a flare up of an underlying inflammatory condition.

He did diagnose something, cant remember which One of Them. All I remember is That he gave me a cycle of "Voltaren 50 MG X 3 " each day for 2 weeks. And the inflammation went away.

Maybe. But I quited Workout That included biceps. So IT can heal.

Have trained Chest And back after the pain startet. IT went Good !

Thanks for the answer :-)
I only have 11 days left. And the gainz is amazing !
 
Hopefully you can power through the last 11 workouts. Sometimes I get little flair ups while on X gels but they usually subside.
 
While using, hard to track because you're holding extra water/glycogen (in all the places we want it) You should feel it working in the gym a few days in, see it in the mirror a few weeks in

Overall with a good diet and program I'd say you can net 2-4 lean lbs over the 50 uses, I run it at 1.5g daily

This is of course a ballpark, and I don't gain as much now as I did my first run, but I'd say the overall recomp effects (aesthetic improvements) are notable every time.

I usually run it in a stack, but have run it solo twice now as well
 
Does anyone have any experience running this after surgery?

I'm 5 months post shoulder surgery. I've been back in the gym almost two months on machines slowly increasing weight. No bench or overhead pressing yet. I haven't touched a barbell in months.

I'm trying to come up with a decent natural recomp with Anabeta Elite, Tr1umph, and I want to throw in X Gels but I know it's probably a bad idea. Theres still pain, discomfort, and difficulty doing some things but I've been released from PT. I expect this until about the one year mark which seems normal.

I may or may not add in some peptides a couple times a day to help with joints if I decide to add in X Gels. I may use them even if I don't add the X Gels.

To be honest, you can build a decent recomp stack without X-gels and so, IMO, you're best to wait until inflammation subsides and are able to start lifting normally again.

Yeah I know I can I just liked running it so much lol

I never really experience much joint pain while on it before so I figured it may not be too bad now but I know it's best to wait.

And plus I will be using Anabeta and Tr1umph either way and I've heard great things about ArA with Anabeta so it upsets me that I can't try it out for another few months lol

That's going to be a good stack! I love running ArA with Anabeta. You're going to love ArA with Anabeta my friend. That along with a nice pump product or even agmatine and expect killer pumps/muscle fullness :)

Had to stop 3 days in lol. Tweaked my back on rack pulls (I think). Can't look up or down without a ****ty pain in my mid back. So waiting for that to subside to re run lol. Super annoyed. Glad I got 3 bottles though

Oh man! Hate to hear that. That's when a hot tub/heat pad are your best friends. I just recently stocked up on ArA myself. Taking it with AlphaMax XT right now. My next run will be ABE, ArA and a few other products :)

Damn man sorry to hear that. I sweaked my neck on pull downs the other day. Hadn't done that for a few years. Luckily it wasn't a bad one. I have had some where I was in pain for 2-3 weeks. Back/neck/spine injuries are a bitch of an injury.
 
The official site Molecular Nutrition:

As a dietary supplement, take 4-6 softgels daily for 8 weeks. Follow supplementation program once every 6-12 months, when stuck in a training plateau.

recommended 4-6 softgels, EVERY DAY for 8 weeks! so more than 50 days !!!!

Taking ArA just on workout days is far superior than every day dosing. Did you read this thread?
