i don't really know what clen and t3 are.
I don't want to take anything that could even be slightly dangerous.
I am interested in the t-rex, glucorell and definitely the sesapure. That last one sounds awesome. But I don't understand how it works.

Sesapure works basically by binding to receptors in your body called PPARalpha. Sounds complicated, and it is, but in the most basic terms the lignans (sesamin/episesamin) activate these receptors which causes a shift in the ways that your cells metabolism works. Basically shifting the cells toward using fuel at an accellerated rate and using stored bodyfat more efficiently for fuel. Its kind of ironic because it makes your cells/body both less efficient (using more fuel at an accellerated rate) and more efficient (better fuel "access" and shuttling of the fuel for usage).


this shifting of cell metabolism has other effects, for example in the liver it increases production of the enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase which breaks down the toxic metabolites of alcohol. Reducing the toxic effects of drinking (most people report significant effects)

Do yourself a favor and don't even bother with Clen. It's junk, it will make your heart race, give you uncontrollable shakes, possible headaches, leg cramps and it can also stiffen the sack around your heart. It's also a waste of time if your bodyfat is not in the teens.

You would be better off with Cardio Breeze or T-Rex from the AF store, or if you want something stronger, the ECA stack. If you don't know what the ECA stack is - start with Cardio Breeze and T-Rex and see how you do with them.

They are not dangerous when used correctly. They are used by many people who are looking to get lean quick. Most fitness and BBers use them before competitions. I know they work because I have taken; I had my blood work tested first to make sure my thyroid was normal before I began a cycle with them. I did my research and asked many questions but you can do as you please.

We're anti-Clen around here. Especially since the "mainstreem" thinks it's a miracle pill. There is no such thing. Unless you're below mid-teens in bf and pre-comp (and even then it's questionable), there are no benefits to Clen. A clean diet and strong training schedule will get more results.

Not saying that YOU didn't get results from it, but what were your stats, diet and training at the time?

My diet is clean, I focus on a high protein diet and try to eliminate carbs during the week. I then carb load on the weekends. I am 5' 108 and about 12% BF. I was in the best shape in Oct/Nov then I found out I was pregnant. I had a miscarriage at 10 weeks. I had gained 10 pounds during that time and was devastated by the loss of my child. I had a planned vacation in two weeksfrom the time I miscarried and I had to loose the weight quick, I am also 41 yrs old. Many of my male BBer friends from pro muscle told me to try the two and it worked for me. I lost the body fat while retaining muscle. I did sweat alot but it was worth it. I also trained like crazy. I was nominated and won march's feature member for professional Muscle so I doing something right!

I'm so sorry about your miscarriage!!!

The problem we run into here is that ladies come in with no clean diet, no training program and want that "overnight" cure (not saying getnfit is this person). We always like to know their stats first, and if they're newbies, Clen isn't the place for them to start.

Hell, I'd been training for 13 years when I came to this board and I thought I knew "most" everything. I was wrong! The minute I started on the clean diet, the water and fat fell off. I was 11.84% when I started my bulking cycle a couple of months ago, and I'm now 14% and just started cutting again. Diet and training are where it's at for the newbie. I just wouldn't want anyone using anything but those two things as a crutch to begin with. After they do "their own" research and have been training for a while, maybe they might decide to go in a different direction.

It's all about learning how to control your body with diet and training FIRST.

How long have you been training?

 

[aja]

I agree 100% that anyone who is just starting out should get their diet in check first. To lose weight you must cut back on the amount of calories you comsume while eating smaller healthier meals during the day. I was always natural and never did any gear. I worked my but off and it showed. I measured everything I ate and kept a diary. I varied my caloric intake from 1200 to 1500 calories to shock my system. I also train hard between 4-5 times per week.

I would like to see that i'm getting somewhere. My diet now is EXTREMELy improved to what it was previously, plus i'm working out now, where as I wasn't doing anything before.
It is frustrating to not see or feel any difference and the scale go up
Maybe my age makes things a little harder in almost 38. The old metabolism is slowed or something???
