    creatine ethyl ester

    C'mon! CEE isn't that bad. Try chugging some CLA powder in your next protein drink, then let me know what you think of CEE. As for effectiveness, I haven't noticed anything radically different than I'd expect from monohydrate. But I haven't been using it long.

    My experience with CLA.

    I think I noted that same effect on the board quite a while back. I used it over a long period of time. I neither gained nor lost weight. I used it during a seven-day cruise during which I expected to gain a little weight, but I didn't put on an ounce. I quit taking it because -- like you --...

    ephedra free fat burners

    Ephedrine's not banned. And Scorch is good stuff.

    Skim MIlk

    Not that milk is bad... but if you want to reduce the amount of lactose you are consuming, I do recommend that Carb Countdown "Dairy Beverage". I can drink the fat free stuff straight, and I like it. 24g protein in 16 ounces, a handful of carbs. Usually drink a glass before bed.

    The Recipe Thread !

    There is a cheesecake recipe in this article (among other things). I've made it several times, it's great. Virtually all protein. I've added up to 4 scoops of additional protein, too. http://www.avantlabs.com/magmain.php?issueID=21&pageID=267 I recommend using Philly Fat Free cream...

    What can I expect from prohormones -

    Prohormones will accelerate gains, yes. 1-AD is a good oral option. But there are many different options. And yes, you definitely need to think about recovery aids. PHs will shut down your natural test production, so unless you take steps to recover you will jeopardize whatever gains you made...

    delta-4-androstrene-3-17-dion

    It's junk, sorry. Tne ingredients are unimpressive, and the coupling of the 2 ingredients is the nail in the coffin. Trib -- "may" be helpful post-cycle to accelerate recovery (and I'd only use it with an aromatase inhibitor, anyway). But you can't use it for the purpose because it...

    Effective pro-hormones

    OK, here are my recommendations, which pretty much echo Bryan's. I'm not considering price here, I'll leave that to you. Oral Ergopharm 1AD Ergopharm Androdiol Select 300 (4AD) Biotest Mag-10 (1AD & 4AD) Transdermal Dermabolics Big 1 (1Test*) Dermabolics 4Derm (4AD) Dermabolics S1+...

    Effective pro-hormones

    Avant Labs transdermal PHs are gone. But the same products (and then some) are available under the new "Dermabolics" label carried by 1fast400.com (or bulknutrition.com). He's also got a $15 HSN Primer special going. My recommendation is to try a 1-test/4-AD blend. (1-AD converts to...

    6-OXO

    No, I don't get blood work done every time I go on PCT. I've never had gyno symptoms, and I've done OK keeping gains post-cycle. And I have used Nolva alone, so I do have a basis for comparison. Just offering my 2 cents.

    6-OXO

    I agree 6OXO alone doesn't do anything dramatic. But I think you might find a lot of people (including myself) who would say 6OXO is sufficient for PCT, depending on what you were taking and how long you were on. I've personally used it on numerous occasions with no problems whatsoever. The...

    Different types of anti-estrogens

    Calkid, the reason people say formestane only while on-cycle is that it is itself suppressive. To what extent, to how this might retard full recovery during PCT, I can't really say. Restless, what were you taking that produced gyno symptoms?

    First PH cycle -- anti-e during?

    Yeah, I agree. It's a little cheaper. The downside is that it's suppressive, but if you are using it during a cycle, that's kind of a moot point. 1fast400.com has a transdermal formestane product called "E-Form" that might fit the bill.

    Prohormone cycle length

    It was funny, in the 5th week my lifts kept going up. Not sure what explains this -- maybe AR upregulation? Then in the 6th week I stalled out, and I suffered reversals in the 7th and 8th. I didn't do any blood work, but I'd guesstimate it probably did take 4 weeks to get back to normal...

    Prohormone cycle length

    Calkid, I replied to your PM with a response so rife with speculation I would be ashamed to post it here. In a nutshell, I suggested iterated 2 week cycles. I really liked S1+, hope you have a similarly good experience. I tried M1T recently, and I actually think I like S1+ better (save...
