Ah well, thanks for sharing your observations.

Maca, at least on paper, seems to be a good libido booster. I've tried it and didn't notice anything, but maybe I'm underdosing. The reason I still find it intriguing is (a) lots of studies demonstrating efficacy and (b) it seems to work through non-hormonal pathways.

Cottage cheese may be a suitable substitute for Driver (slow protein) but it isn't for Primer (fast). I honestly can't think of too many whole-food sources of fast digesting proteins.

Yeah, I was stunned. I still have about a week and a half left. But it's the recovery that will be interesting. If I don't keep any of the weight, then what's the point? Feel free to PM me questions about this. I'll post results here (since I'm doing HST) and over at Avant (since it's their...

I'll update too... that Super One+ cycle I described above? Out the window. I went 2 weeks and really didn't notice any side effects. No acne, no bloating. If I'm losing hair, it's not noticeable. I did gain like a pound a day over two weeks (I weighed in at 249.6 pounds at my last gym...

Thanks for the links, Biz. Very interesting. It is a conundrum. Like he says in the second article... This problem, coupled with my aversion to doing a prolonged cycle, is why I am starting to become more interested in stuff that boosts endogenous test (or at least doesn't suppress it)...

In short, I set it up "suboptimally." ;) Basically I am paranoid about hair loss and gyno. So I don't have the guts to run a long cycle. So instead of using my 2 bottles of S1+ to run a four week cycle, I just used 1 bottle for a two week cycle (which I'm in the middle of)...

Thanks Steve, I was going to update this thread with that info too. Obviously, it's an ErgoPharm funded test, and there are only 2 subjects. But with those caveats in mind, nice to see some data. In light of this info, I don't know whether I stand by my prior recommendations regarding bulking...

I'm still trying to figure out what to do, frankly. I have a bunch of 1-test/4-AD (Avant Super One+) I was planning to use, then didn't because of some blood testing I anticipated. So if I decide to use that, I'll have to hold the 6OXO in reserve for recovery. (PH use isn't illegal for me or...

I tried it, at a pretty low dose (2 caps/day), and noticed some leaning out and heightened libido. But it wasn't a stong test -- I was just polishing off the remainer of a bottle I'd used coming off a PH cycle. Only lasted a couple weeks at most. I've ordered more to take alone.

JimmyV, I'd urge you to do a lot more research before you do anything with prohormones. "Andro" is probably not a good option. Start here: http://www.hypertrophy-specific.com/cgi-bin....13;t=26 This is another good resource...

Ditto on the cottage cheese. I usually hate it, but with a scoop of protein powder I love it. There are a couple of appetite suppresants that come to mind. Subdue (Syntrax) uses a Jojoba extract called simmondsin. You can do a PubMed search to read more about it. It also has 5-HTP in it, so...

Cheaper too! Ah that's OK virtualcyber, you took one for the team on that one.

I had the same question before I tried PHs. This article would suggest that yes, some of the benefits might be permanent. http://www.thinkmuscle.com/articles/haycock/muscle-memory.htm

This is going to sound stupid, but I used it and noticed basically nothing. However, it tastes pretty darn good mixed in protein drinks.

This is a very interesting question. I've often wondered if there are supplement that confer some benefit (like less soreness) but actually retard muscle hypertrophy. I tried LCLT recently. The fishy taste isn't really a problem. I did notice getting sore after I stopped taking it though.

I think that's the idea. You'll see people complaining that they don't meet their label claims, I've seen evidence for and against. But even if you accept the poorest test results, they aren't that bad for you at all. The only problem is I can go through a box in two or three days. I need to...

1fast400.com has l-theanine from NOW, though it's complexed with green tea extract. ezpricematch.com has a pure l-theanine from Source Naturals. beyond-a-century.com has l-theanine powder. I've used this mixed in water, and although theanine is said to contribute to the "umami" (?)...
