  1. Depends where you are in your training and diet cycle. If you're bulking or in a maintenance phase preworkout cardio is great. If I'm eating in a surplus I don't have to worry about emptying the tank from a 20 min run prior to working out. Some cardio gets your heart rate going, gets your muscles loose, it's great preworkout of you're eating right.
  2. I don't think it has it be one or the other. I don't think tapering helps recovery, 100-150mg of test is going to fully suppress you so dropping to it definitely isn't going to help you recover. However, I do think there is a benefit to tapering down in terms of how you feel and how you maintain gains. If you're running 1000mg test with 400mg of tren and just stop one day you're relying on the esters to taper. If these are enanthate you're looking at 3-4 weeks before you go below natural levels and your body begins to signal for production. If you're on prop and ace you're looking at about a week to go from super human to castrated man. Doesn't sound smart to me. I think dropping all accessory compounds for a week or two is pretty common and makes sense. Then I like to taper down the test.. This allows you to gradually adjust to being normal or below normal. I'm in the process right now I was running 800 test and 400 tren. Three weeks ago was my last week at those doses, the next week I was at 800-200. Last week I ran about 450mg of test. This week and next I'll do 250mg as I blast some HCG. Then I'll drop to 100mg a week for two weeks as I finish my HCG then start nolvadex which I'll run for 6 weeks. Tapering won't help you recover but it'll make you adjust from such a high to such a low easier. PCT won't help with the drastic drop as it doesn't work fast enough but it will get your recovery going faster and finish quicker.
  3. Another real important benefit in the whole food camp is all the micros. If you're eating 250g of protein a day, 200g coming from shakes whether whey, casein, etc. 50g coming from meat or 50g from shakes and 200g from meat you're going to have a drastically different micronutrient profile. The meat is going to give you many more vitamins, not to mention minerals like zinc and magnesium which are key for athletes. Another less pronounced but no less important is ingredients. Beef is beef, chicken is chicken if you're getting fresh food more than likely there is no ingredient list. Whey the ingredient lists look like paragraphs, some you don't even know half the words. So much chemical extraction and refinement. It's fine in small amounts but years of that intake will do a number on you. This goes for all packaged stuff but if you're pounding 2-3 shakes a day you're way out side of moderation.
  4. Sorry what do you mean? I'm not offering an opinion I'm saying that the medical community does not prescribe insulin to counteract GH's impact on insulin sensitivity. When a drug causes a side effect that is of notable concern as long as the side effect is not worse than the condition (in which case they would discontinue the drug regime), they typically prescribe a drug to counteract the side effect. For example when a drug regime causes significant edema, a doctor will prescribe lasix to counteract the edema. They do this because you more or less need to or something bad will happen (heart failure). Even in instances where they have small children taking the equivalent of 20iu a day to a 200lb make, they don't counteract insulin sensitivity of GH with insulin. So again what I'm saying is regardless of GH impact on insulin sensitivity it isn't great enough to warrant a need to run insulin. You don't need to mess with insulin because you think you may be messing with your insulin sensitivity. However, if you want to use insulin for gains or just for shits all the power but there is no need to, you're not benefiting your health or preventing some type of bad side effect of GH by using it.
  5. I wouldn't use a vegan protein. Soy and Pea proteins are not really great for anabolism. Have you tried drinking pasteurized egg whites? If not, give it a go. If so, I would just eat whole food. Vegan protein is a complete waste.
  6. The thought behind this is bro science. All of the medical conditions treated by GH, even delayed growth in adolescents with dosing surpassing bodybuilder doses, they never pair it with insulin. This is the thought that you require insulin with gh or you should take insulin at a certain dose. That by no means says not to take insulin, if you want to play with it, give it a go. But if you are only thinking of taking it to balance out a side of GH, don't.
  7. Don't look up the ingredients of Harvey's beef if that's one you enjoy! Let's just say it's not beef and salt like McDonald's.
  8. I really try to avoid the fast food, if I'll looking for something quick I'll hit up a quick service sandwich or burrito place instead. Typically only takes a couple minutes more and you end up with more whole foods. There's a nice Portuguese sandwich shop by my house where I get a pulled chicken sandwich for $6. I'll do a burrito extra meat at somewhere like mucho burrito or barburrito. If I do hit up true fast food I'll get a spicy chicken at Wendy's or double quarter pounder at dons.
  9. I've always wondered why yohimbine doesn't get more attention. I'm my opinion it's much more impressive then clen or t3 both on paper and in real world. It also seems to work even better the leaner you get so for prep it's clutch.
  10. I'm not sure I'm on the bang wagon like some people but there are two beneficial use cases in my opinion. During bulking to stimulate appetite. Anyone who has a hard time getting in enough quality calories can probably speak to lack of appetite during bulking. When I have issues getting the calories in a use a short term IF to back load all my calories until after 1-2pm. Starting my day at 6am, I'm literally dying to eat at this point. I keep calories the same but instead of 6am to 10pm it's 2pm to 10pm. I believe building the hunger signals kick starts the metabolism and after a couple weeks I add in another meal at 7-8am and just like that I'm up 500+ calories breaking through a wall. During contest prep towards the end when portions are low instead of following 5-6 meals a day I like to go down to 3-4 bigger meals. Pushing my first meal to 12pm helps with this. You're hungry regardless but you'll end up more satisfied condensing two meals into one.
  11. Used to be called baby aspirin until it killed babies.. Now is low dose
  12. NAC 600mg Magnesium Bisclycinate 500mg 3x Omega 3 720 EPA/DHA Coenzyme Q10 200mg Zinc Gluconate/Citrate 100mg That's my year round stack whether I'm on our off, I'll increase NAC to 1200mg during cycles. Magnesium really helps with muscle cramps that I get post workout. Well eliminates them completely. Also helps with sleep, muscle recovery and heart health. Bisclycinate is important because I'm not looking for a laxative. EPA/DHA too much science not to take. Coq10 cheap and some solid science behind it. Zinc helps with my strength and muscular recovery. Noticeable improvements. I'm very skeptical of supplements but always open to try something if there is enough science behind it.
  13. What browser are you using? If you use mobile Chrome you can click the menu button on the top right and click Desktop Site. Quick fix for you in the meantime
  14. That's not actually true, the drug never made it to human testing so we don't know what an insane dose is. We just know that within a few weeks it caused cancer in all the test subjects. Animal testing is not a one to one mg to kg ratio for dosing. We have no idea how the drug reacts in humans, for all we know 1mg can cause cancer. Also to Pharm companies and Wada "abuse" is not how we see it - "insane dosing". To a Pharm company any off label use is abuse, using any development drug is abuse. To Wada, any use for performance enhancement is abuse. I'm not sure if you've looked into this enough. There aren't going to be "further studies". The drug was abandoned because there are no clinical applications for a drug that without any reasonable scientific doubt will cause cancer. The patent holding company said the drug is done, that means we'll never see another test. No one would test, let alone use a drug that lowers blood lipids with the side effect of causing cancer within weeks of a high dose, or maybe years with a moderate dose. The average person is smart enough to know of all side effects, cancer is on the extreme end. Unless a cancer causing drug reversed the effects of a bullet to the head, there really isn't an application.
  15. This is the drug that was abandoned in testing because it caused cancer to develop in several organs (liver, stomach,, thyroid, tongue, skin, bladder, testes, womb and ovaries) by all test subjects. I believe it is the only drug that after WADA banned it, they actually did a press release to warn people against using it because it is so dangerous. They haven't done this for any steroid, fat burner or stimulant before. Just something to take into consideration whether the doses we're higher in the test subjects than you plan to run or not. Is the risk, no matter how great of cancer worth any potential benefit? The patent holding company is not pursuing human tests because the animal tests were so conclusively linked to cause cancer.
  16. I'm sure this would do wonders though I think you can get great results with less. I've used both compounds. I've committed to run either or both every few months just as a precaution. BPC is obviously a bit easier as you can take it orally. Right now I've been taking 250mcg 1-2 a day.
  17. I go back and forth on this every cycle. I have a hard time attributing any gains from most steroids. Running 1000mg of test vs 1000mg of test with the addition of 600mg of eq or deca, I can't really say the second compound did anything. I really feel test, tren, m1t and winstrol are the most effective for me. Drol, dbol, tbol and SD are okay. The rest I've pretty much sworn off. I get tempted by deca or something and then regret using it. The only really common steroid I haven't taken is primo. I debated giving it a go next run but with my lack of excitement over eq, deca, masteron, etc. and the cost of primo I thought really adding 200mg of tren a week will do more. So with that my go would be test and tren. I'll rotate orals (m1t, dbol, tbol, win) in and out at a low to moderate dose. Based on the goal of the cycle I'll change my injectable doses. Bulking higher test (800-1200) and lower tren (200-400), strength I'll run a higher dose of both (8-1200 and 4-600) and for cutting a little lower on the test (6-1000) and higher on the tren (4-600).
