currently on novedex xt + activate xtreme (cheers hennie) folks @bb.com rave about it, put it part of my recomp stack and hoping to see results, from what I recall my only side effects from nxt were sore joints in the morning, waking up during the night once or twice to go for a piss, and a loss of labido (single now so that doesn't really matter), oh and sometimes I get pimples on my head (I shave my hair too so it looks gross lol :( ), only 2 days into it, will let you know how it goes once I hit my half way point (4 weeks)

Loss of libido sounds wrong if its a test booster!! :nod: You're not overtraining or under eating are you? Unless you're referring to after you came off the product? That would be understandable.

Acne from testosterone is generally a shoulders, back & arms thing. Maybe a shower straight after training or protex soap might help you?

Let us know how you go this time?

Nate

yeah nate not sure about the libido issue, I wasn't even taking the recommended dosage of novedex (only 1 per night) it could be a mental thing too...but who knows, but yeah will let you know how it goes after the cycle, cheers bro

the loss of libido is due to novedex lowering estogen too much (so i read), some estogen needs to be present to maintain a healthy libido. The first cycle i did i took the recomended 2 caps per night and noticed this, the next cycle i did i alternated between 1 and 2 caps per night and got better gains and libido stayed high.

yeah that's what the gaspari reps told me, also that's why some people get sore joints (funny enough I only get sore fingers on the left hand in the morning )

I'm gunna try "test freak"

My testosterone is shit at present coz I had blood Iron Overload.

18 nmol/L

So I'm hoping this stuff can kick my ass. Iron toxicity damages the pituitary which affects lutenizing hormone. Pretty sure its happened to me.

If boosters don't work I'll have to directly take testosterone therapy.

Even though my test is low I am reasonably aggressive, muscular etc.

Gee I wonder what he said ?

:pfft: Anyway I have never tried test boosters before - took my first dose last night.

Had a good sleep and maybe improved boner in the morning. No other difference yet.

Most docs normally wont want to prescribe test unless its super low like below 10

do u spray CRC on your iron body parts? as a substitute for a test booster?

The test freak stuff sure has not knocked my socks off but may have had a subtle effect.

Ingredients:

TF_SuppFacts_02-10.jpg

ZMA and Tribulus I can get in 1 kg packs for about NZ $150 from purebulk or nutrabio.

Stinging Nettle and Funugreek are available unprocessed from a horse herbal supplier in NZ (heaps of them actually).

http://www.horsewyse.co.nz/index.php?ac ... ductId=772

http://www.horsewyse.co.nz/index.php?ac ... 59455cfbb6

Super cheap but I would prefer the extract:

http://www.bulknutrients.com.au/testosterone.cfm

http://www.federalabs.com/one_kilo_pricing.htm

Federal labs is not super cheap but they do have saw palmetto and fenugreek powder.

Further Anti aromatase could be added - heres one from a patent:

An anti-aromatase nutraceutical or pharmaceutical composition, consisting of a capsule or dose to contain

Nettle root extract (Urtica dioica) 16:1 in the range of about 275 to 350 mg.

Pumpkin seed oil (Cucubita pepo) in the range of about 150 to 205 mg.

Pygeum Africanum (Prunus africana) bark extract standardized to contain at least 12 to 15% of total sterols in the range of about 20 to 40 mg. and

Chrysin in the range of 475 to 550 mg.

Good one. If you've damaged your Pituitary gland and not producing LH why are you using a Test booster that's main and only effective mode of action for Test increase is to increase LH and ACTH production through the pituitary? You ain't going to get diddly burger. If your Pituitary really is stuffed, which I'm sure your doctor could tell you pretty easily, the only way you're going to get a Test increase is through HRT.

Yeah it's alright, its got d-aspartic acid which has some evidence to show increases in LH and subsequent Test increase (in males). You need at least 3g to 4g of d-aspartic acid on a daily basis so it looks like it should have the lower end of the dose if using 4 tabs. All the other ingredients are more than likely filler to make it different from all the other d-aspartic acid products that have been out for the last 6 months. Why gaspari feel the need to add Vit B12 and Folic acid to every product that they make is beyond me.

Won't work for everyone, but should be pretty good for most guys in the late 20's onwards.

i know this has already probably been done,

but im looking to shop around, but would prefer advice before i spend the cash!! haha

so, as the title says, what works for you?

what product do you get the most/best result from?\

as an understanding that different products work with different people i was wondering what YOUVE experienced from your supps.

i have tried,

ZMA-average at best

ISA-TEST-diddent realy do it for me

LEUKIC- nothing!

my best results have been from

Norateen Heavyweight II

Discorie Deltoidia (sp)

which im currently on now, bowt to run out of and mayby try something else.

SUPPLEMENT WISE THOUGH!, so the "fake" stuff. lol

not prepared to get onto the real deal as of yet!

any recommendations out there?

im curious about the musclemeds Methyl Arimatest.

Gaspari Halodrol and/or Plasmajet

oh, and preferably something that is for a full month i.e, 30 days.

please and thank you

:D

This will cause a riot and is controversial.

Nicotine (in the form of gum or patches) is a very effective aromatase inhibitor and has been shown to increase testosterone.

Other Aromatase inhibitors are well known for their effect on raising testosterone levels so it stands to reason why Nicotine would do the same.

It is also understandable why this information is not freely available and is very controversial.

Smoking will not have any positive effect on any function in the body and is highly addictive.

Nicotine gum and patches are not addictive due to their slow release into the bloodstream. The use of gum and patches has not led to smoking in non smokers.

Do some research into this and then by all means launch into my post. :naughty:

You know there's a study out there to disprove or prove what ever you want it to. Just depends who's funding the study and what kind of result they are looking for.

Effects of Intravenous Cocaine and Cigarette Smoking on Luteinizing Hormone, Testosterone, and Prolactin in Men

http://jpet.aspetjournals.org/content/3 ... 9.abstract

Testosterone levels did not change significantly after either cocaine or after high nicotine cigarette smoking.
Would have been an interesting study to be a subject in that one.

====================

http://www.fertstert.org/article/S0015- ... 3/abstract

Volume 94, Issue 2 , Pages 673-677, July 2010

Smoking is associated with increased free testosterone and fasting insulin levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, resulting in aggravated insulin resistance
