I suggest regular testing because progesterone can reduce male libido and has been given to sex offenders.

Interesting that, if I am reading the abstract correctly, both tested items were artichoke extracts so eating artichoke may not be enough. Also interesting that creatine at a ridiculously high dose increased not just creatinine but urea. I'll keep taking my creatine. :D

12mgs a night. It's actually a topical oil that she wants me to use orally. I am going to ask her why she prefers oral intake. I also remember reading in the past that it is not absorbed well orally.

Great post with plenty of progesterone benefits that are new to my eyes. A doctor had me (age about 35) start with oral progesterone as well as a pharmacist-only adrenal supplement (includes bovine adrenal). Together with my recent, usual supplements (magnesium, zinc, astaxanthin a few times per wee...

It's natural to go for the option that gives the most freedom ("Deep discount...") but I assumed the Mass Pro Synthagen twin-pack would still give me the best discount for the items I would buy.

Preworkout: I have been mostly using Haleo Vici lately (caffeine, beta-alanine, taurine, magnesium, l-carnitine l-tartrate, beet root, and other stuff) and am happy with it.

Occasionally, I use ephedrine and coffee but the crash makes that quite infrequent.

And sometimes I just have coffee.

1.) Do you enjoy kick in the pants type stims (i.e. ephedrine), or something a bit more subtle? For infrequent use like what you are describing, a kick in the pants sounds nice but I do not have a strong preference. 2.) Do you take a separate fat burner, aside from your pre-workout of choice? No, a...

That was a good article. Is there enough Rhaponticum Carthamoides in Mass Pro Synthagen, say at the ~15 caps around workout dose, to have beneficial effects on blood glucose? My fasting blood glucose is in the mid-90s and that concerns me. Might answer this one on the BP Power Hour on Superhuman Rad...

Good to hear, Randy! I am noticing some nice relaxation effects at night and now that I think about it, possibly muscle soreness reduction. I'll say more in time.

Beefcake, are you saying that you were able to maintain these by-week progressions with 3 intraweek workouts?!
