hydroxycut after workout

I take Hydroxycut just after my morning cardio (about 45 minutes before my first meal) and I think this works great. I personally cannot take them while I do cardio because they drive my heart too hard and would force me to stop the cardio!

The Doc
 
I'm with ya Dr. E. My cardio workouts are long and hard runs. If I took an E/C stack pre-workout my heart would probably blow up. I run seven minute miles which gets my heart rate cranking as is. The only way I could ever do a thermo is post workout. Any other runners out there who take thermos?
 
i don't understand the logic. most people take eca to power them through workouts. if you took it afterwards it would give you all that energy when you don't really need it. i think its like taking a test and then studing after you took it.
 
For harder driving cardio workouts that already get the heart rate up higher it doesn't appear the safest bet to add a thermo on top of that. I guess it just depends on how intense a persons cardio sessions are. I'll stick with a nice mellow heart rate post cardio instead of speed madness.
 
different people follow different logic....
it doesn't really give me energy period....just interested in the fatburning.
i would need to take it after workouts on some days because of timing.
I originally posted (as HowBadDoYouWantIt), because i was wondering what the affects would be to the muscles after working them out...giving my body a therm prior the resources they would be in need of.
In essence i wondered if there would there be a chance of going into a catabolic state. (i do cardio AFTER lifting)
From what i understand (which i could be completely wrong) they dont' work that way...
 
definitely nice metaphor....maybe i am just not clear enough in what my question is.....

Question: Because of eating and training schedule SOMETIMES i need to take my 3rd dose of hydroxycut AFTER i work out....is there any reason to think it would promote *muscle* loss rather than fat loss by taking it AFTER working out (30 minutes prior to my after workout meal) ???
 
I would be really hesitant about taking another dose of hydroxycut after your workout unless your workout is early afternoon or so. If your workout is at night (after 5 PM) you might experience sleeplessness from taking such a strong stimulant so late in the day. You will also continue to burn calories for a time (1-4 hours) after you finish your workout-depending on the intensity- so it would be doing double duty. I generally keep my use of hydroxycut/xenadrine/eca stacks to the first 2/3 of the day, but thats me. everyones metabolic rate is different so you might be OK. Are you really supposed to take 3 doses of that stuff per day?
 
There are two ways to take thermogenics:

1) 30 minutes before your workout.
2) 30 minutes before your meal.

Both ways are effective at promoting thermogenesis. I train with enough intensity in my cardio sessions that I don't need an extra fat-burner on top of that.

i can't take eca before cardio--it doesn't help my workout anyway plus it gives me palpitations for hours afterward. Too much for my heart I guess--because my cardio sessions are as intense as possible for me and go for about 40 minutes. there's this instructor who's like a drill sargent at my gym, he teaches a very intense floor aerobics class and if i take a thermo before that class, it's just too much. I don't need extra energy anyway during workouts, I need it at about 2 o'clock at work :) that's another thing, i can't take any of that shit after 5 pm or i spend the night lying in bed with my eyes wide open and my brain swirling with thinking.
 
Hi Guys,

I do my gym at 6:30 am, so definitely my breakfast will be after that like at 8 am.

I saw all the above comments which they are so effective but i just want to make sure about how to take the pill. Shall i take the hydroxycut 30 mins before my workout? Like at 6 am?

I am not professional so i will be happy if you advise me:).

Thanks
