I was just at the GNC store...saw some Ephedra 250 and something called ECA Stack. the 250 has 15 mg Ephedrine ($20 for 90 caps). Does anyone use this? and how much mg? And has anyone tried the ECA Stack (20 mg Eph, 200 mg Caff, and 324 mg Asp)? ($40 for 120 caps) I would appreciate all comments. IP: Logged |

i have done a e/c/a stack before and lost 18 pounds of fat in 8 weeks. but i did run 4 times a week for 2 miles. I woke up, took the stack waited 20 min then i would go running on a empty stomach. then another stack in the afternoon. If you are taking Creatine you have to change a few things because caffine in a dietiric someone will be able to answer the part with creatine DJ Gravity IP: Logged |

No bud, goto your nearest truckstop or gas station and pick up some minithins. 25mg/tab ephedrine hcl. Any brand will do. You can usually get them cheaper at a truck stop.(around $7-8) Goto walmart for you caffiene tabs or the truck stop. Look for generic brands to say a couple buck and goto a dollar store for aspirin. A two month stack like this shoul run about $15-20. IP: Logged |

Yes. Too much. First things first, asprin has never been shown to have beneficial effects in any group except for obese women. Are you an obese inactive woman? I don't believe so. Secondly, long term asprin use can cause health problems. (Not to mention the blood thinning can be quite annoying. Try cutting yourself and see how long it takes the bleeding to stop.) The majority of "experts" in the field have now recommended ditching the aspring. Stick with 20/200 E/C. Three times a day (though I sometime go up to 6 a day, personally) If you do want to use the asprin, because it *could* do some good, try 85mg. This is the minimum ammount that has the desired blood-thinning effects. Maybe 125 (half a standard generic asprin). later Puc IP: Logged |

ECA is an excellent fat burner. My only suggestion, whether you buy it in the bottle or make it yourself, is to not jump into a full dosage immediately. ECA can severly wire some people, especially in the beginning. Better to start at, say, half dosage for 1-2 days and see how your body reacts, then increase the dosage.

But nothing at GNC they are way overpriced. Goto a Vitamin world or Nutrition warehouse or order online much cheaper, more shit to choose from. ------------------ IP: Logged |

asprin opinions are mixed. some like it some don't. I always space the eca out as evenly as possible and take my last one no later than 6 hours before bedtime. As far as which days, 5on/2off works well for most people. some take it daily and then take a month off when they get attuned. also, ass ASSFACE once eloquently put: ON ECA SLEEP IS AN OPTION later IP: Logged |
