cardio and ECA question

[DonMak]

what time of the day is the best to take my ECA stack and should I take it before or after doing my two hours of daily cardio? I don't have an exact time
of the day to do cardio, I just do it when I have time, it could be am or pm, but according to your answers I will start running at the same time from now on, thank you.

i really think stims should be taken in the AM so they do not affect your sleep, plus they help suppress appetite

people have a hard enough time sleeping right?

 

[Lev Butlerov]

Yeah, if you are using those potent stims, better use them in the morning, regardless of the time when you do your cardio. Besides, their effects will last for quite long so it is not all that necessary to use them right before training.

No later than 2pm - from experience ha ha

I have run it in the past and find the best is to dose twice per day 24mg ephedrine and 200mg caffeine each dose. Roughly take them 8am and 2pm. That way they are spread out and you are not taking it too late that you will have sleep issues.

I do not think the aspirin is necessary at all though.

Both ephedrine and caffeine are harsh stimulants. I would use the ECA stack as early in the day as possible so it doesn't effect your sleep.

The half life of caffeine is 6 hours. Try not to use anything that contains caffeine 6 hours before bed time.
