I've never heard of it before, but reading up on it, it appears to have similar claims. It's been on the market for a couple years, but marketed to endurance athletes instead of strength trainees. It may very well be the same stuff, but it's hard to tell since they list it on their label as modifie...

ucan's superstarch vs wm-hdp

Hey everyone, I was wondering if any of you could explain the difference between ucan's superstarch and wm-hdp with regards to their mode of action? I know everyone here is more into carb sources like karbolyn that are rapidly absorbed and induce an insulin spike, but I'm of the mind that keeping in...

Thanks for the insight, Mike. Yes, seeing as how pricey it can be, buying the WM-HDP and adding it to your protein of choice does make a lot of sense. I think Myotropics is hip to the fact that the carb source is the real magic to their product because I just got an email from them stating that the...

Have any of you guys been using this, and if so, how are you liking it? Was all ready to give this a serious run, but they unfortunately do not ship to Canada. Thanks for your replies. I did give it a trial run. I liked it for the most part in terms of results. Taste was okay, but not amazing(mass ...

The problem is I am not able to get 3 sets of 30 on the level 2 horizontal pull. My best so far has been 25 reps, 20 reps and a third set of 19 reps. Arms and back muscles are pumped as crazy by the end of those 3 sets! Why am I not progressing on this one? I thought my back was a strong body part ...

Just read through this whole log and it's fantastic. I've been a loyal CC devotee since last fall. I absolutely love it. Well... except for the bridges. Those are still my nemesis. Unfortunately I've taken about a month off cause I was out of the country. I've been curious how CC would work when cou...

Just for curiosity sake, how tall are you? I'm currently around the same weight and bf%. My measurements vary a tad from yours, but are pretty similar except my arms are a tad bigger, but your calves put mine to shame. I'm 6'0" 194lbs at 11.4%bf

Curious to know how everyone else is doing?!?!? I'm still utilizing the CC movements, however I recently started lifting again instead of doing CC exclusively. Felt like I needed to ad some more intensity to my training. Ended up building 2 workouts around the CC movements and doing circuit type li...

Ephedrine dosage??

Just purchased some ephedrine HCL since I've learned that the FDA ban was just another case of BS. I follow a warrior/IF style diet usually breaking the fast an hour before training with a small serving of fruit and protein, then feast for a few hours after into the evening. It comes in 8mg tabs. An...

Please guys, stay on topic. If you want to talk pre-workout nutrition, that's perfectly fine --> start another thread! I don't want to be rude but 3/4 of this thread is way off my original post...

10 grams of bcaa pre is what I've been doing. More so for the fact that as cortisol levels rise during training they can be broken down rather than going catabolic. In a conversation with Rob, he recommended to take 5g of EAA prior to training versus BCAA's...he said there is a big difference betwe...
