I get stronger right before my period them there is a huge drop off for like two days. If I take a day off that's when I do it. (I hate days off) But after the two day slump I'm back to normal, though I wish i could feel as charged as I do right before all the time. I also have a wild appetite...

I used to like to jump into a hot tub after worrying out, now I jump into a cold one with a few ice cubes. It 's hard to adjust to the water at first but I find I can work out more the next day and I don't get as sore. So now I wonder why this is? I happen to like hot baths. Is there a time when...

Okay since I do know a bit about building endurance I'll say this about cardio frequency. If you can do a 30+ min cardio work out (like running) and you come off it not feeling too spent you need to add some bursts to it. For example if I'm training for a marathon I'll put like two 8 min miles...

Hey guys thanks for all the advice I'm up to 1.5 a day and I think I'll stick with it. Doing 1/2 a pill twice a day seems to be a good way to start for smaller (but not weaker!) bodies.

Okay I decided to try the E/C/A (xenadrine) I took one as the bottle says in the morning and it made me nervous and jittery all day long. I didn't take the second in the afternoon because I was still rolling from the morning. Well today I got some empty pills capsules and made a 1/2 size dose...

I posted this in the other forum, then I noticed that there was this one for women. I hope I'm in the right place now. -- Hi I'm Susan I'm 21 years old 5' and 105 lb. I run about 40 miles a week and list weights for 40min 3 times a week. (like 10-15 reps three sets each) So here is my...
