Suggestion for Cyclist

[billfred]

Have you tried Optygen?

I read about it in a cycling magazine and had documented performance results. I have tried and can tell the difference but not consistent enough to give you any results. It is worth a try.

test is the easiest way to raise your hemoglobin and hematocrit levels. Most guys that run it for a long enough period find theirs at levels that are too high and end up donating blood to get the levels back down again. A low dose test would do the job just fine. A long ester, and you would only need to inject once per week.

Blood levels are much better splitting dosages. Even if it's just a half cc twice a week, it's definitely worth the slight inconvenience.

I was referred to this forum from a cycling buddy. Basically what I am looking for is to increase my power, reduce recovery time and cut down on some body fat. Any suggestions? I have two in mind but seems impossible to find.

My Specs - 157 lbs
Body fat - 9.5% Goal of 7-8
Eat very well (6 meals a day) 60% carbs, 20% protein and 20% fat
Training approx 15-30 hours a week on the bike. Depends on training load for the week. Harder weeks is when I can use something to enhance recovery.
Current power (FTP 315 watts) looking to improve to 340 by end of year.

Hope some of you can help me reach my goals and I can contribute to your forums.

before you do anything you need to find out your hemocrit level. the tent should already put you b/w 50-55. the sides of levels above that are on a scale from annoying to dangerous to deadly (remember the dutch guys in the mid 90--assumed room temp in there sleep). I live at 6000 feet and train up to 10,000 in the summer--my hemocrit was at 54 last week--with very little base training this winter and the sides of secondary polycythemia (which is what you induce by such training) started to show

www.sportsci.org/encyc/drafts/Erythropoietin.doc

"Significant increases in hemoglobin and hematocrit were observed. The average hematocrit level rose from 44.5% to 49.7%. Resting blood pressure was unchanged. However, during submaximal exercise at 200 watts, the average systolic blood pressure increased from a baseline of 177 mm Hg to However, during submaximal exercise at 200 watts, the average systolic blood pressure increased from a baseline of 177 mm Hg to 191 mm Hg"

and if you are a cat 1--be careful

My Hemocrit is around 42 now but was at 46 last year using the tent. I have not had it up close to 48. Honestly all I am really looking for is some Test boost. Something mild like Andriol should do the job. Maybe after a while I may decide to get some shots.

Question to eddymerckx, do you know what was your normal hematocrit before living and training at altitude? Just would like to know how much of an effect that type of training has had on you.

Yes I have tried this and still using it. I am using the new OptygenHP and belive it works. The new one also has 1,000mg of Beta-Alanine that I also think it helps.

anything supressive will work for you bro, kill two birds with one stone. Your nuts are gonna shrink so no weird feelings while chaffing on your seat.
