From what i have read it is not a good idea to do alot of cardio while cycling. I want to shed some fat on my cycle if possible yet I know I need to keep my calories up. That said should I take xenadrine during my cycle? | ||

You could take it during your cycle, but I would save it for afterwards. You'll need it more. Doing light cardio won't impede your gains. | ||

Xenadrine will suppress your appetite, so its probably not a good idea while bulking. Also, you have to watch your blood pressure because for me its already elevated while on test so xenadrine will just compound the problem. | ||

Are you bulking or cutting? If you're cutting then yes, use it to your advantage to aid in fat loss. If you are bulking then it makes no difference if you take it in place of cardio as it will NOT burn fat while consuming a excess of calories. The ONLY way to loose weight is by using more calories than you consume. ECA makes your body use more calories so the fat goes faster. Cardio does the same thing. You can take all the eca in the world and do endless hours of cardio but if you are consuming more calories than you are using (which is required for bulking) then you will NOT loose weight in the form of fat. Your body's energy requirements are met by your food intake so there is no need for it to use stored energy(fat) for energy. If you are bulking you need the excess calories to add body mass. During this time you will gain weight. Hopefully mostly muscle mass and very little fat but there is no way to loose the weight while in a calorie + state. ECA and cardio don't burn off fat. The caloric deficit they create, along with proper diet, is what forces the body to tap into stored energy. So taking eca while bulking will not shed fat nor will doing cardio. | ||

Hacker is right on...it will not help your BP. You might look into Cytomel and see if that might help you reach your goals. | ||
