    <span style='font-size:9pt;line-height:100%'>Bumping this thread... I actually have huge questions about CLA, especially after Virtualcyber's post.</span> </span> <span =''> <span style='font-size:9pt;line-height:100%'>This doesn't sound good. I'm still struggling to understand the action of...

    What to have pre workout on a flat/tired day

    A more &quot;hardcore&quot; option for people who aren't averse to using prohormones... There are several intranasal prohormone products aimed at elicting a sense of focus and intensity. (They aren't really aimed at packing on mass.) Here's one such product -- not out yet...

    Lean Muscle tissue

    Another thing to think about -- a far more straightforward way of getting omega-3 is by taking fish oil. Of course, there are other issues. Some think flax has anti-estrogenic effects. Some people are strict vegetarians (so fish oil is a no no). Fish oil might contain mercury and other...

    CLA & fat cell apoptosis revisited

    Hey, yeah, I posted a little anecdote about my CLA experience over on that other board under a thread about &quot;reseting your set-point&quot; or something. I won't bore you with it here, virtualcyber basically presented the gist of it. I've been using it continuously for over 3 months now...

    prohormone: which to take?

    NightOps, your discussion of what supplements one can take and still consider themselves &quot;natural&quot; is interesting. It's certainly something I've been wrangling with lately. I've come to the conclusion that using prohormones is no worse than what I've already been doing. I take...

    Bryan can NO2 do what it claims?

    Bryan kinda knocked this product early on.  I don't know if he's changed his mind.  This is from the old ThinkMuscle boards... </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">Date: 03/13/02 02:55 PM Author: Bryan...

    pyruvate

    Sorry -- yeah, I tried it once. A single 10g dose. I learned a few things. 1. My strawberry theory was so wrong. (See above. Next time I'll try lemon or something.) 2. A single dose that large makes me nauseated. 3. I need to figure out a better method of delivery if I'm going to make use of...

    bromocriptine

    One more bromocriptine application... Dopamine Extinguishes Smoking WEDNESDAY, Sept 4 (HealthScoutNews) -- Medicine that mimics increased levels of the brain chemical dopamine could help extinguish a smoker's desire for cigarettes. That's the finding of a study, appearing in the September...

    Carnitine

    Interesting. I think a few people on this board have been using topical fat burning products -- LipoDerm and something called Yohimburn. I think Steve McDermott's been using something with good results. Wonder if any of these contain carnitine (or whether you could add it)?

    Carnitine

    Seems like carnitine is making a comeback. I remember in the late 80s and early 90s it was hyped, but is sort of disappeared. Now I'm reading more and more about it again. Seems like research has been continuing all along, but supplement companies moved on to promoting other stuff. Anyway, here...

    glucosamine and cutting?

    how much are you taking, virtualcyber? i'm getting 1.5g of glucosamine sulfate daily in a glucosamine/chondroitin/msm supplement i've been taking since my tendon surgery. i've leaned out, but i think it's more attributable to the fact that i added ec and cardio. maybe the small dose of...

    prohormone: which to take?

    i'm about to take the plunge too. i'd be curious to hear people's comments on mikeynov's questions. (although i'm somewhat committed to a 19-nor-4-androstenediol cycle for my first prohormone experiment.)

    pyruvate

    just got my pyruvate. ok, it doesn't taste good. but it doesn't taste that bad either. nowhere near cla-bad. it has sort of a dairy/creamy initial taste followed by a bitter aftertaste. in fact, i think virtualcyber's joke about strawberry is actually a good idea. in chocolate this stuff would...

    HSN considers making prohormone

    i'm totally new to the prohormone &quot;scene&quot;... did a little reading and saw a claim that 19-nor-4-androstenediol is more anabolic (and less androgenic) than the straight test precursors. More muscle, but your sex drive goes to zero. is this bad information? nor-diols don't seem that...

    pyruvate

    i used to believe the same thing, but then i tried to gag down a protein drink with like 10g of added cla powder in it. then i realized i had my limits! my gf is vietnamese, and they use rice paper in their cooking. i keep thinking i could use the stuff to make mega-caps (20g+) of the...

    HSN considers making prohormone

    dahammel, it'll get that bad here soon. guaranteed. ephedra is an issue in the CA gubernatorial election right now -- both candidates arguing about who is the stronger &quot;protector&quot; of the public's health (ie, who supports more regulation). bryan, i have no informed opinion on this...

    pyruvate

    i'll be sure to tell you how it goes for me. i have a sneaking suspicion it's gonna taste god-awful.

    pyruvate

    yeah blood&amp;iron, noticed that it's in leptigen, though i don't really know what par deus thinks its function is. virtualcyber, i hope it's not just extra carb.  in fact i was under the impression it is one of a number of substances that purportedly steer glucose to muscle cells rather than...
