Good OTC cutting agent for women (Activate Xtreme MASS-FX or Decavol)?
Details:
I am 5 feet, 114 lbs, 21% body fat looking to reach the 18-19%, in terms of body fat. I am well into my 40's and still working out hard and eating clean. I am a personal trainer and focus my sports nutrition on food based and pharmaceutical grade supplementation.
Supplements I do take:
All are pharmaceutical grade, i.e. 25 mg of DHEA a day, Glutamine, ALA, Fish Oil, Whey Isolate, SamE, MSM, Glucosamine, Calcium Citrate, Arganine, Creatine and a green phyto + B-vites.
Diet and Exercise:
Clean diet and strict regular workout routine; weight lifting, cardio (interval training) along with flexibility training, performed on different days throughout the week. I like to lift heavy and focus on improving and increasing my 1RM over time for all exercises. I keep a training log as well as a food journal.
I have been consistently working out daily for over 20 years.
Daily Calorie intake range from 1,500 on lighter workout days to 1,800 on heavier workout days. Nutritional focus is on good, balanced micro-nutrition.
Hurdles:
As a women in her 40's, (for men too) it is hard to maintain the level of hormones at this age that you need to build the lean mass and body fat levels of what I could do with diet and exercise alone, when I was in my 30's. I am years away from being premenopausal, but can tell the difference in my energy, recovery and gains as I have aged.
Goals:
I would like OTC supplemental help at this age to get that ripped, hard muscle look that I was able to achieve in my 30s on exercise and diet alone. I have good muscle mass, but would like to have my muscles look more harder, lean and cut. In a nutshell gain some lean hard muscle mass and loose some BF.
Considering the following supplements:
Activate Xtreme
MASS-FX.
Decavol
Want to avoid:
I want to avoid caffeine based or ephedra based substances.
Anything that makes me more cranky or aggressive as I am already an angry little piss ant by nature.
Avoid any supplements that cause masculization and virilization
Any suggestions or thoughts on cutting supplements that are beneficial to women (Including brands, doses and cycles, for someone on the small side.) would be appreciated.
Thanks much.
