02gixxersix said:So Nelson, I know you recommend these herbs for post cycle. But which would you recommend for use during a cycle, being that they may increase the effect of the gear? Also at what doseage?????????
A while back I wrote a thread entitled; "Why You're Not Growing" and it explained how SHBG not only holds back gains but also renders much of the gear you're on as useless.
The key is to lower SHBG and there are 3 compounds that have been shown to do that -- avena sativa avenacosides, active extract of muara puama and standardized stinging nettle.
A lot of members have very positive experiences using these substances and make it a part of their daily supplementation.
In the past I've recommended buying these ingredients from BAC due to the good quality and low price but since then, www.proteinfactory.com has come out with a formula called "Unleashed" that contains all these ingredients. The cost comes out to about that of BAC without having to make the pills yourself. (BAC only sells powder).
By lowering SHBG, you get more available testosterone -- be it natural, or from whatever T you take.
