T-Rex & ALCAR

[bran987]

Hey guys..

Decided to add ALCAR to my order of Gluc-R, T-Rex and Gplenish this time.. but now have heard that there is ALCAR in T-Rex.. is taking extra ALCAR a waste of supplement? Should I wait till I'm out of T-rex to use the ALCAR?

Thanks to ya

adding ALCAR is not a waste. there is alcar in t-rex but it is a small amount, enough to get some benefit. additional alcar will be definitely be of additional benefit.

No doubt...when cutting, I normally consume roughly 2-4g ALC daily

hard to say, depends on the individual.

if you are low on catecholamines then ALTYR.

IMHO most people need both, they should be "staples".

both improve energy and fat metabolism

ALCAR is one of the few supplements I've used where the instructions say to specifically take it between meals. How exact should I be on that?

Also, are there any calories in ALCAR, or enough to speak of?

would there be a benefit in taking ALCAR when your bulking to possibly help utilize fat for energy instead of storing it?

Calcium and ALA will help with that too if that's what you're going for.

I don't see why people want to become big fat slobs when bulking. I mean what do their women think when in 3-4 months time they gain an additional 10% BF. Right now I gain a little fat witht he muscle and it would be nice if I could reduce this to next to nothing with something like Alcar. I do use R-ALA when bulking already for a few meals a day. I definitly get enough calcium as is, because I drink about 6-7 classes of milk a day.

we DON'T want to become big fat slobs when bulking . That's why I'm asking all these questions. I just lost all that fat, and now I'm trying to figure out how to cheat life into letting me gain some more muscle without becoming a balloon again.

ulter had said that he uses t-rex while bulking with r-ala in order to minimize fat gain, so I'm giving it a shot.

I listen to this guy on saturdays who just touts the benefits of ALCAR all day long so I figured I would give it a shot this time around, trying to figure out how to take it. luckily, I have some calcium around from when I was doing a CKD a couple years ago, thanks for that tip nordstrom!

Are the ALC pills as effective as the powder form?
What are the recommended dosages during an ECA cycle please?

might want to consider liporexin

it has
alcar 400mg
green tea 200 (100mg of ecgc)- which increases lipolytic effect of caffeine

plus a host of other lipolytic enhancers

 

[EL GAUCHO]

Thanks bro. Already got the green tea going on.
What daily dosages should I be shooting for please? 3-4g?

 

[macrophage69alpha]

2-4 grams is the general reccomedation. some people do use up to 10g (though increase in benefits????)

So to be effective it definitely has to be taken on an empty stomach?

 

[macrophage69alpha]

it is still effective, you will see better results if taken on an empty stomach

 

[macrophage69alpha]

Glucorell mini (60ct)

Thermorexin mini (30ct)

some of my ALCAR unknowingly spilled in my work bag and corroded into an orange slime over the course of a few months.

was this a good bump?

yes. Its points out the fact that alcar is quite hygroscopic (part of the reason the switch to caps was made)
