From these previous comments, it seems like Slim Xtreme is one of the strongest if not the strongest fat burner here. Does it result in a lot of muscle loss? I want to keep as much lean mass from my bulk as possible.

I was wondering the same thing. I'm trying to get some reviews on this product before I buy it.

I've been wondering the same thing. I really liked the old formula; I lost 8 pounds on it. I hit a plateau before taking it and I was suprised at how well it worked. I didn't get all jittery, the only issue I had was taking the pills. I could take all five little ones at once no problem, it was the others that were a little large (but still managed). All in all a great product so I'm assuming the NEW formula has to be better.

If you're looking to really cut down fat then go with Mitotropin. Its ephedra free and has alot of all natural ingrediants in it which in turn means no crash. I've tried Lipo 6 black and even VPX Meltdown and those weren't bad they just caused me to get drowsy after a while and Mitotropin cut me up hardcore. no joke. Its good to follow up with Cytolean V2 as well which will help with more long-term fat reduction and IT ACTUALLY WORKS!

Cytolean V2 is good stuff. You can take it on your off days, as it will still curve your appetite and do its job. What I do though is take it only on my workout days so it lasts longer and works better. You should try Mitotropin too.

Just an fyi.........the new Animal Cuts formula is all easy to swallow capsules. You hit the nail on the head when you said you used it to get past a fat burning plateau. That is how fat burners should be used. The new formula is quite effective for that purpose.

anyone know how HotRox, Lipo 6, Thermonex EF, or MeltDown Z14 compares to Zantrex (in terms of suppressing overeating)? i sure hope one of these works better, cuz i've head Zantrex is supposed to be pretty decent in terms of preventing overeating, but when my "female hormones" :mad: kick in, i can f*cking max out on zantrex and still eat like 5,000-6,000 calories/day... :eek:

...a ****LOAD of food considering i'm a 5'3" female doing only like 30 min of cardio/day (due to injuries)... at least estrogen can't f*ck w/ me while i'm on ephedra :p but i obviously need to find another solution now that its banned

Seriously! Im on my woman time right now and usually have no problem with overeating but all I can think about lately is chocolate! haha. I'm supposed to be having 1500 cals a day and used as much will power as I could but still went over by 175 cals! its hard just gotta fight!! What helps me is good substitution. For example, eat right, be fit sugar free chocolate syrup (only 15 cals per 2tbsp) on 98% fat free popcorn or swiss miss sugar free hot cocoa (60 cals).

That's why I am looking at taking it. I took Lipo 6 for a while, but lost water weight and gained it all back while within a month or so. I started out at 240, and cut down to 205, but according to the Air Force measurements, I'm still considered overweight by their standards. For my weight I have to be under 200 pounds and I'm having problems losing that last 5-10 pounds so I can get back to where I was when I played basketball. Anyways thanks for the information on Animal Cuts. I will probably try it when I get paid again.

i have taken lipo-6 for about 8 weeks now and have lost a total of 18 lbs, (185) down to 167. Worked great. I have been a long term user of products from controlled labs ( I have personally bought several tubs of white flood, and have half of my gym taking it ). I am going back on a mass gain, but would like to hear some more on the Reduction PM. Would taking Recution PM and white flood not be too good?

I am currently working on my last day of Xenadrine Ultra. I get headache's and cant sleep, no matter how much I work out, which was in the form of my MMA training, Boxing, and running 12 miles every night for a couple weeks. I know it helped, but am iffy on the side effects.

Bought the night version of REDuction and Lipo 6, going to start that cycle to break up my second bottle of Xenadrine ultra. Will post results.

that would be fine as REDuction PM is stimulant free

Slim Xtreme is already extremely loaded with heavy stuff, so be very carefull. If you really want something extra, take either just green tea or Reduction pm, but never any other kind of weight loss product unless you don't care about your health.

I just finished my first magic bottle of Slim Xtreme after 3 months!!! It kept my weight under control when I wasn't exercising and kicked them out when I was doing even the smallest efforts, like working in my garden. This is really extreme :D

But I also have to mention, the magic works with water, so drink lots of it. Find a brand you like and drink it like there's nothing else left to drink on the planet!

I started taking a stack which I felt would be very effective, but so far it hasn't given me much of a boost, last year I was on/off rapidcuts all year (wasn't consistent) but slowly I got resistance to the energy rush and what not because I wasn't using them properly. Anyways here's what I was stacking, maybe I've been doing something wrong, but it isn't helping me and would love some advice on what fat burner I should switch as base or anything in the stack I should change.

I take VPX Redline liquid caps, Omega 3 caps, Lean X-treme caps, ALC caps, L-Carnitine caps and CLA caps. I pretty much followed this (originally I was going to use VPX meltdown as shown, but they [Company on Ebay] shipped me Redline instead, I complained, but never got a response from them again so I was like whatever).

Routine (found it on google a few months ago):


6:30 AM - Wake Up - 1 Capsule of VPX Meltdown, 4 Green Tea Capsules, 4 L-Carnitine Capsules-3 Multi Spectrum EFA Caps

7:00 AM - Cardio for 20 Minutes on Stationary Bike

8:00 AM - Breakast(Protein Shake)6-8 Fiber Capsules, 6 CLA Caps

10:30 AM - 1 Capsule of VPX Meltdown, 4 Green Tea Capsules, 4 Acetyl-L Carnitine Caps, 3 Multi Spectrum EFA Caps

12:00 PM - Lunch(Tuna and Green Veggies)-6-8 Fiber Capsules, 6 CLA Caps

1:30 PM - 1 Capsule of VPX Meltdown, 4 Green Tea Capsules, 4 Acetyl-L Carnitine Caps, 3 Multi Spectrum EFA Caps

4:00 PM - Meal 3(Tuna and Green Veggies)-6-8 Fiber Capsules, 6 CLA Caps

5:00 PM - 1 Capsule of VPX Meltdown, 4 Green Tea Capsules, 4 Acetyl-L Carnitine Caps, 3 Multi Spectrum EFA Caps

8:00 PM - Meal 4(Lean Meat and Green Veggies/Salad)-6-8 Fiber Capsules, 6 CLA Caps

9:30 PM - Cardio for 20 Minutes on Stationary Bike(Cardio twice a day on non training days)


I don't wake up that early (usually 9-10) as I'm in university so nights get late, but I've been trying to keep my diet as clean as possible while doing cardio and working out almost every single day. Any advice on what I should change in my fat burning supplements would be great as they're not working, I even tried taking 3 caps of Redline, but no rush whatsoever.

sounds like ur body built up a tolerance or resistance to the redline pills. I never got any effect from taking the REDLINE pills but i do fully support many of the other VPX products. I just bought Slim Xtreme based on a TON of good reviews. You could look into Lipo6-Black and see if thats up ur alley.

Have you tried the new Animal Cuts? It's an awesome formula. The new Animal Cuts formula is made up of eight distinct components: (1) thermogenic complex; (2) metabolic complex; (3) thyroid complex; (4) diuretic complex; (5) nootropiccomplex; (6) cortisol inhibiting complex; (7) CCK inhibiting complex; and (8) our special bioavailability complex.

Used the older formula and it worked awesome. Before next summer I will need to get my hands on a can of the new formula. Was really great stuff and I like that you can get rid of a pill should you decide you don't want that part for whatever reason!!!!

I'm 39 years old, 5' 9" or 5'10" tall, weigh about 79 Kg (175 lb or 12 1/2 stone), and am essentially ectomorphic (6 1/4" wrists, skinny forearms, narrow shoulders, etc) although I seem to have much more strength in my legs than in my upper body.

I did no exercise at all in the first 20 years after leaving school. Ironically though, I started reading things like Muscle & Fitness and Flex on & off when I was about 19 or 20. I was always too lazy to do any exercise though. I stayed very skinny until I was in my late 20s when I started to slowly put on the pounds, until I reached the 89 Kg (196 lb or 14 stone) I weighed 2 years ago.

I joined a gym in January of 2008. Since then, (according to a BMI chart) I've shifted from the high end of the "overweight" zone towards the low end. I've obviously still a long way to go though! Of course if I could wave a magic wand I'd have Arnold's body in 1973, Sergio's in 1969 (incredible!) or Ron Coleman's now, but I have exactly the opposite type of genetics to these guys & I'm far too old as well! I'll never be a "proper" bodybuilder but obviously I want to have as little fat and as much muscle as possible!

I train 3 times a week - about 45 minutes of cardio (treadmill, cycle & cross-trainer, or a spinning class) followed by about 90 minutes of leisurely weights/machines. I alternate between back/legs and arms/chest/shoulders/abs every time I go. I've put on a bit of muscle in the almost 2 years I've been training (although not so much that anyone's noticed apart from me!) and I've lost much of my belly, and I do look much thinner generally, especially noticeable in the face.

My diet is reasonable - never any junk food or cakes/sweets/biscuits or fried food etc, very little red meat, raw wholegrain oats with rice milk for breakfast, soup & a tuna salad sandwich for lunch most days, chicken or salmon or pasta in the evening. I do love pizza but they're normally small & only have veg & garlic as toppings. I do crave carbs most of the time though, and I know I eat too many carbs & not enough fruit & veg. Fruit wise it's normally blackberries/raspberries/apples/grapes or similar. I love tomatoes too and the odd glass of pure pink grapefruit juice. It's wholemeal bread at home, although during the week the local sandwich shop only has white.

For about 6 months I've been taking Maximuscle Promax Diet (a 215 calorie-per-serving whey protein shake) maybe 4 times a week, normally about an hour before I train (which is usually after work, in the evenings) plus occasionally on non-training days too. I quite like the taste, it mixes ok, and is designed for people like myself who want to prioritise fat loss over muscle gain. It contains the green tea, caffeine, etc that seem to be "de rigueur", and presumably is doing me no harm.

Other supplements that I take (every day) are Solgar VM-75 (a multivitamin/multimineral), 1000 mg of Solgar L-Lysine, and the following, all to combat "atypical" depression: 1000 ?g Solgar Chromium Picolinate, 1000 mg Dr. Tolonen's E-EPA (a vacuum distilled Omega 3 fatty acid that contains no DHA) and 500 mg of Doctor's Best D-Phenylalanine (1000 mg since 5 weeks ago). Conveniently, I've seen the last 3 occasionally listed as ingredients in different supplements that are supposed to promote fat loss/muscle gain, so they might well be helping my physical as well as mental health.

At the end of June I also bought a bottle of VPX Meltdown from this website, as it seemed to have one of the highest overall "out of 10" ratings (at the time) of any of the fat burners that were listed.

The first time I tried it, I took 2 capsules, but after that I always took 3 capsules (the recommended dose) just at the start of my training. The second time I took it, I reckoned I really felt something, like more energy or the cardio being easier. Generally though, the only consistent & reliable effects have been excess sweating (I sweat too much anyway due to taking 75 mg of Venlafaxine per day) and very mild nausea. The very slight nausea is probably in part due to working out hard, plus the high amount of caffeine in my system at the time (there's 126 mg from the Promax Diet plus what's in the Meltdown). I'm not a regular caffeine user anyway - I never drink tea or coffee, (although I have the occasional Diet Coke) so I'm not exactly used to it every day. I occasionally got very mild "shakes" as well. The sweating/nausea/shakes might often be accompanied by a feeling of being slightly wired or energised, but it might have just been wishful thinking or the placebo effect. Apart from that one time, I never felt "wow - my regular exertions feel easier 'cos of this stuff!".

I finished the bottle a few weeks ago, and I want to try something else, but I just can't decide between the bewildering array of alternatives that also have very high ratings.

Things like Purple Wraath, White Flood, VPX Liquid Clenbutrx Hardcore, etc all get rave reviews from dozens of people, but there's no guarantee that I'll get any positive benefit from any of them. I'm not wealthy, plus shipping to the UK isn't cheap, so I want to make the right choice with my next purchase.

What I'm hoping for is that someone out there will have been in a similar position to me (perhaps even with the same bodytype/metabolism etc) will have got the same effects from Meltdown as me, then will have tried something else that they found was fantastic. Other things being equal, if this other person is constructed in a similar way (biochemically/genetically or whatever) to me, then chances are that I'll also get good results from what works well for them! So if anyone out there having read all this says to themselves "wow - he's SO like me - he needs to start taking such-and-such straight away!" then please let me know!

Having said all that, part of me has a strong instinct to try something this time round that focuses on colon cleansing and generally clearing out internal toxins & other garbage as a way to lose weight. There seem to be a lot of products out there that take this approach, often using the Acai berry as a major ingredient (see effectivecleanse dot com for example). There's even a page on this website that takes a not-disimilar approach (search the site for "better_health_inside_first").

I'd also love to know if I should swap the Promax Diet for something superior (another diet protein or creatine shake perhaps?) and if there's an equivalent to it without the caffeine & other stimulants. That way I could take it of an evening when I'm at home, only an hour or 2 before bed, when I get hungry & crave carbs, as an alternative to eating more oats & milk - i.e. carbs!

I DO appreciate that the way to lose fat & build muscle is through a strict diet and hard, regular exercise, not merely supplements. That's the routine I've been on for almost 2 years now & it has paid dividends, but I'd love to be able to take a fat burning supplement that would help shed even more fat than the diet & exercise do alone.

Many thanks in advance for everyone's input.

just started my most recent cut..
last one was about two months ago before a death of a loved one which destroyed all my progress but went from around 14%bf to around9-10 felt really strong and lean. This was with great diet and running and body weight circuits and animal cuts. At first loved the animal cuts then hated it got the worst migranes for like two days stopped it for a day started up again with no problems, maybe just really dehidrated who knows..

Just picked up the new formula animal cuts and seems great.. intense energy and incredible appitate suppress. I still smoke pot when not full fledged training and get the worst muchies and this totally stops have to force a protein shake down

Can someone tell me which current fat burner would offer the most appetite suppression?

thanks

The new version of Animal Cuts has a powerful CCK Inhibiting Complex which works very effectively as an appetite suppressor plus 7 other effective complexes that will help in all aspects of fat burning.

The new Animal Cuts is currently the #1 fat burner on bb.com:

Hey,

I was quite keen on trying reduction after reading lots of good things (ive got WF, PW and green mag - all great supps). But i noticed that i can't find anywhere in Australia to buy it.

Something in the ingredients not allowed here?

Thanks for your reply. It's a shame it's only at GNC though - as in Australia they are by far the most expensive eg - PW for $135, where ANY online store will do it for less than $100.

I'm in a rush for work - but in simple terms whats the difference between AM and PM reduction ( i know if i searched i could find it lol)

How did you dose it out? 3 pills first thing on an empty stomach or did you spread it out throughout the day?

Did you take it pre-WO?

Well i have tried superpump and no explode and nothing worked as well as white flood so i swore to myself that im not wasting my money anymore on energy supps and instead only buying Controlled labs. My order was 2xWF, 1xIntrain, 2xreduction AM, and 2xreduction PM, orange triad, green mag as well.

So my savings kinda spread over the products but was around $100-$200, so shipping (to Aust) seemed a small price to pay when i think about it buying that bulk. But If i had of just bought reduction i would have only been better off by about $30.

I am about 2-weeks into:

ANIMAL CUTS
by Universal

... and so far I really am seeing a big difference. It has everything from your basic thermogenics to cortisol and CCK inhibitors. I have noticed a big drop in water retention, probably an effect from teh diuretics also included in the stack. My vascularity and deffinition has increased substancially... I can't wait to see how much further I come with this stack.

The only down side is for people with weak stomaches. After taking the pill stack on an empty stomach you will feel a lot of "spicy heat" as if you just downed a habanero or something. If this happens, take it with a shake and you should be good!

I am currently on Mitotropin, I was in the US and called bb.com and a couple of guys said they had taken it and found it had the best results out of everything in the office. A few calls to some friends and it was held in pretty high esteem. Thought I'd take the plunge, why not. Could be a BB.com sale or something, maybe the guy was making extra dough by flogging Mito but who knows?! :D

Anyway, I use a few vendors and Gaspari is top of my respected list alongside the UK's Reflex who make great products too.

I can't comment much on the true effectiveness of Mitotropin because I am on day 5 of 30, but it seems to be quite an amazing product so far. I am already noticing results.

I find it strange that these threads are so populated by suppliers/their reps. Makes a lot of what is said in this threads a load of trash to be honest. Who gives a monkey what a supplier says about his product. I don't. This site is supposed to be an exchange between people who sweat their asses off in the gym and actually have tried products and give honest feedback.

I am deffo going to cycle Mito with either Animal Cuts, Lean Xtreme or Cytolean V2, just don't know which one!

I have a wedding to go to over Christmas in Dubai, so 21 day Animal Cut cycle is perfect for me. And as we both agree, taking certain pills out is a BIG bonus. But I have heard that Lean Xtreme has no stim, no side effects and is pretty damn sexual.

We understand the needs and lifestyles of bodybuilders, we always try to take this into account when we formulate a product.

Many bodybuilders take pre-workout formulas and/or other products containing stimulants. Taking too many stimulants can be counter productive. With that in mind we singled out the majority of the stims in a single red pill which is our Thermogenic Complex. Also some people train late at night and don't want to take a stimulant too late as it may affect their sleep.

There is also a Diuretic Complex in Animal Cuts and some people don't want to take diuretics daily so we identified them in 2 blue pills.

We designed the formula for ultimate flexibility and with the athlete in mind.

The new Animal Cuts formula is made up of eight distinct components : (1) thermogenic complex; (2) metabolic complex; (3) thyroid complex; (4) diuretic complex; (5) nootropiccomplex; (6) cortisol inhibiting complex; (7) CCK inhibiting complex; and (8) our special bioavailability complex. Clearly, Cuts is complete from top to bottom.

SlimXtreme really is f*ckin extreme :D ..

This stuff is scary good. I hope it's not harmful to people's health though.. I surely won't be using it regularly or together with any product. CL Reduction is still my favorite for regular use. I recommend that one for people who don't need or want sleep/energy disturbance, but a normal and quiet effective weight loss product with supercool night pills too :D. SlimXtreme is to lose huge amounts or when Reduction gets stuck.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL... How about that? :D :D :D


"Consumers who may have purchased SLIM XTREME should immediately discontinue using the product and contact us at returns@anabolicx.com to receive further instruction"

ROFL I Can't believe it, I finally found something that worked extremely good and now its not for sale anymore. :D

I'll be using CL Reduction again. I hope it will still work after using something as powerful as SX.
At least It will be jitter free and with the perfect sleep. :D

But CL, you really got to do something against appetite like SX. (And again, why not add carnitrine?)

The pills are not that big, size of a regular fiber pill or similar. I don't take any of them out, the stim pill really isn't that strong and the diuretic only made me make 1 or 2 more bathrooms trips than i normally would

It's not necessary to take 2 packs a day but it seems most users report the best results when they do. Cuts will provide some extra energy as it does contain stims.

I would just time things up so things are working best with your schedule. What time are you taking the first dose? When do you workout? And when do you take your 2nd dose now?

Is there a reason you don't want to take 2 packs a day?

I haven't taken any yet...this is my first time. I have no prob taking the 2 packs a day...I guess I didn't phrase it properly....I was hoping to use the stim energy during my workout / cardio.

For example say I wake at 9am....I don't work out until maybe 11-12 and then cardio right after around 1.....putting it right in between the timing of 1 pak at wake up...and another 4-6 hours later. Which I was assuming would miss any extra energy the stims would provide.

So would it be ok to say ...maybe take 1 pak like 15-30 mins before my workout...and then another 4-6 hours later midday? Or is it imperative that I get Cuts in my system upon waking....if that makes any sense. Thanks for the help.

Two options I see if you want to maximize using 2 packs:

If you take Cuts upon waking at 9 AM you would be fine to take your 2nd pack before your cardio at 1 PM

OR

Take Cuts 15-30 min pre workout and the 2nd pack 4-6 hours later my friend.

Both would work... just remember to keep on track with your diet/training/cardio and keep dedicated. Best of luck.

Does Animal Cuts have the right blend of ingredients to actually work? I'm looking for something that is going to work and so far I'm leaning towards Animal Cuts..

About to finish my can of Animal Cuts. Not bad at all, actually. This year I've tried:

Mitotropin.
Did a decent job, but not great. Definitely better than the majority of the burners out there - but not the best I've tried. Also seems to change my odor when I sweat (not in a good way, either). Might try it again in the future.

Dicana stacked with Lean Xtreme.
Probably got the best results from this, as BF% dropped the most while I was stacking this.

Animal Cuts.
Seem to have lost the most weight from this, but BF% loss was not as good as the Dicana + Lean Xtreme stack. Hard to say if it was as good (was not better) - but since none of these should be taken continually - it's an awesome way to switch up the supps. But, if price is a consideration - you can't go wrong here.

REDuction.
Can't really give it a fair assessment, as my diet wasn't as clean when I was using it. But, the sleep was great :D
I really should try this one again with a clean diet...because I have a feeling it might be worth it. Also felt good when I was using it, so maybe in a few weeks I'll try it again?

Did a decent job, but not great. Definitely better than the majority of the burners out there - but not the best I've tried. Also seems to change my odor when I sweat (not in a good way, either). Might try it again in the future.

Dicana stacked with Lean Xtreme.
Probably got the best results from this, as BF% dropped the most while I was stacking this.

Animal Cuts.
Seem to have lost the most weight from this, but BF% loss was not as good as the Dicana + Lean Xtreme stack. Hard to say if it was as good (was not better) - but since none of these should be taken continually - it's an awesome way to switch up the supps. But, if price is a consideration - you can't go wrong here.

REDuction.
Can't really give it a fair assessment, as my diet wasn't as clean when I was using it. But, the sleep was great :D
I really should try this one again with a clean diet...because I have a feeling it might be worth it. Also felt good when I was using it, so maybe in a few weeks I'll try it again?


Thanks for the reply.. I was actually thinking of taking the Cytolean V2 but i will give animal cuts a try with a stricter diet. Thats probably my main downfall is the diet. I work weekend nights so it gets messed up for 3 days and than try to eat clean during the week.. I can afford to lose some BF.. Its been down hill since thanksgiving LOL..

Hey Thanks again

can you still drink coffee and pre-workout supps (White Flood) which have caffeine in them while on Animal Cuts?

The great thing about Animal Cuts is it's the only fat burner that gives you the option to leave out the Thermogenic Complex (red pill) which contains the majority of the stims. If you are going to take a pre workout product around the time you take your Animal Cuts, just leave out the red pill. Animal Cuts is not reliant on stimulants like other formulas, it's still very effective without them.


I've been reading on this thread and it seems like Animal Cuts have the majority vote here. With that being said is there a difference in lets say Animal Cuts, Slim xtreme, Reduction, and others? Does Animal Cuts have the right blend of ingredients to actually work? I'm looking for something that is going to work and so far I'm leaning towards Animal Cuts..

thanks

Animal Cuts is unlike any other formula on the market. The new Animal Cuts formula is made up of eight distinct components: (1) thermogenic complex; (2) metabolic complex; (3) thyroid complex; (4) diuretic complex; (5) nootropiccomplex; (6) cortisol inhibiting complex; (7) CCK inhibiting complex; and (8) our special bioavailability complex. Clearly, Cuts is complete from top to bottom.

Since we reformulated it Animal Cuts has become the # 1 fat burner here on BB.com:

What would be an ideal fat burner to take if i am a very active person?

I snowboard 2+ times a week, train MMA 2-4 times a week... am on my feet at work running around 8 hours a day?

im thinking something between Animal Cuts or REDuction

EDIT- i might be doing a cut to drop weight classes... if that makes a difference

Allmax Nutrition just came out with a drink form of Rapidcuts Hardcore. The Rapidcuts Detonation sticks.

It hits you instantly after drinking it. Being a liquid (after mixing the drink stick with water) it is absorbed so quickly. Literally moments after finishing the drink you are wired. Its great, no waiting for anything to kick in! Awesome Thermo effect as well.

If you need to make weight Animal Cuts Diuretic Complex can really help, the complex is identified by 2 blue pills so you have the option to leave it out if you want and/or take it a couple of days in a row before you need to weigh in.

We formulated it with consumer options in mind, you can also leave out the majority of the stims (in the red pill). No other formula offers this option.

I used Ripped Freak during my contest prep for my first 2 bodybuilding shows and it really worked well for me.
Things I liked about it:
- only 1 pill per day (2 is the max recommended but this was enough for me)
- my energy and strength significantly increased even though I was on extremely low carbs
- helped me lose fat and keep muscle on through my strict diet
- I felt good on this fat burner

with animal cuts do I need to still take CLA and L-Carnitine? If not, is there anything I should take other than the normal protein shake. Would a multi vitamin be overkill?

Also, I wake up at 5:45. Work 7-5 and lift 5:30. I assume take one as soon as I get to work and the other around 4?

Thanks

Whatsup with that 9 pill animal cuts?
lol, I got scared when I saw that huge pill package and even more scared when it started to burn my stomach. But I'm still alive :p and I've noticed it's working when I took 2 packages a day. Not much (in the eveing) when I take just 1 package.

The appetite supressing is not as great as slimxtreme used to be, but it helps (when you don't miss the second package.)

And no jittery/ancious/sleepkilling feelings present. So thats a big +

I've just started fitness, so I'll see how the real burning goes.

I've been using CL Reduction AM/PM for about year and I went from 220 lbs. (Jan/2009) to starting 2010 at 200 lbs. What I liked was the ease of use (2-upon waking 30 minutes before breakfast 2 before bed). Prior to this, as a a point of referrence, I used Lipo 6, Lipo 6x, Hydroxycut, and VPX Meltdown. Reduction gave me engergy without the jitters I experienced with other fat burners. When I cycle off, 2-3 weeks, I still use the PM to give me some great sleep. It's a permanent staple in my cabinet.

Hey guys, I have been hearing good things about Reduction and Animal Cuts. I am a full time student and I started going to the gym in Summer, but had to stop. I recently just got back into going and I'm trying to loose my belly fat "aka beer belly" I dont drink so i didnt get it from beer lol. I was trying to decide what would be the best product to help me loose my belly and work on my 6 pack. I just started running and noticed that my stamina is not up to par. I like the Reduction idea because of the AM Pm pill, but would Animal cuts be an over kill for me? I plan on doing some basic workouts along with my cardio as well.

What would you suggest?

Ask, and ye shall receive...

I was a lot more strict this time around on RED. Weight loss not as dramatic as Animal Cuts, and BF% drop not as great as the Dicana + Lean Xtreme combo. But, I did see a reasonable drop in both. But, there is another intangible: It's so easy to take, and the mood elevation + sleep is soooo nice! It's pretty much worth it for those aspects alone. I almost think of the weight/fat loss as a side effect! I drift anywhere between the high 8's to just under 11% BF, so I'm not expecting a huge loss. So, the other factors will make this something that I go back to with some regularity (but, I do tend to cycle through products that work in different ways).

Next up...ordered some of the Cellucor stuff. I'll see how that stacks up. It sure as hell won't win on price! ($140 for the D4 TC + T7 :eek: )

Im not familiar with all the supplements so I cant tell just by looking at the ingredients.
I dont want any diuretic effects as Im not competing or anything and just looking to loose body fat as a fitness goal so Im not concerned about water retention and I already try to avoid excess sodium in my diet.

Im interested in REDuction because people here are giving it good reviews and I am sensitive to stimulants so I like that it has a PM component with it and that a serving size is 2 pills so I can try 1 pill for the AM component at first and see how I react to its stimulant effects first.


* I guess I should clarified by saying I mean to ask if it has additional diuretic ingredients beyond the stimulants (Caffeine and Synephrine) which I already know are diuretics themselves.

This is how I typically use it:
3 of each/day.
I generally take 1 Lean Xtreme upon waking, and then about an hour later when I finally eat I take 1 Dicana. A few hours later, I take another Lean Xtreme, and a couple hours after that I take another Dicana. A few hours later, I do the same. So, I basically spread them out throughout the day.

Whether that's recommended or not, I have no idea - but It's what I had good luck with.

I've been using CL Reduction AM/PM for about year and I went from 220 lbs. (Jan/2009) to starting 2010 at 200 lbs. What I liked was the ease of use (2-upon waking 30 minutes before breakfast 2 before bed). Prior to this, as a a point of referrence, I used Lipo 6, Lipo 6x, Hydroxycut, and VPX Meltdown. Reduction gave me engergy without the jitters I experienced with other fat burners. When I cycle off, 2-3 weeks, I still use the PM to give me some great sleep. It's a permanent staple in my cabinet. Much props to Controlled Labs for a solid product!!!

Based on the feedback here, I think I will give RED a try when I order more WF this week. I guess my only other question is whether anyone on RED has experienced any sort of GI irritation? I have to be careful with that, and dont want a constantly upset stomach or deal with running to the BR every five minutes. Cuz so far, I'm definitely interested in giving it a go.

This is how I typically use it:
3 of each/day.
I generally take 1 Lean Xtreme upon waking, and then about an hour later when I finally eat I take 1 Dicana. A few hours later, I take another Lean Xtreme, and a couple hours after that I take another Dicana. A few hours later, I do the same. So, I basically spread them out throughout the day.

Whether that's recommended or not, I have no idea - but It's what I had good luck with.

Is it ok to take 1 Lean Xtream and 1 Dicana, both pills before breakfast, lunch and dinner? 3 times a day or do each pill have to be taken on separate times? Is this basically like EC stack?

What is the benefit of just taking reduction PM as to both AM/PM? It sounds like the benefit of just PM will possibly be better sleep! Wouldn't you need both AM and PM in order to get full benefit of the product?
ideally you would use both. we sell the pm separate as well for when cycling off of the AM portion.

How many pills are in a Animal Cuts pack?

9 small caps


9 pills per packet, twice a day.

18 pills a day sounds bad, but as long as you dont mind taking pills they aren't too bad. Pretty good size pills though.

^^^


my work starts at 8pm and ends at 5am. i workout after 5am. what is the best time to take animal cuts? would it still be effective if i take it when i wake up at 5pm and then 4 hours after?

That would work fine. 1 pack first thing in the a.m. and a 2nd pack 4-6 hours later.


I will be taking animal cuts this time around. But my question is i start work at 6AM and end around 3 or 4pm. So when is it the best time to take the Supps?

1 pack first thing in the a.m. and a 2nd pack 4-6 hours later.


with animal cuts do I need to still take CLA and L-Carnitine? If not, is there anything I should take other than the normal protein shake. Would a multi vitamin be overkill?

Also, I wake up at 5:45. Work 7-5 and lift 5:30. I assume take one as soon as I get to work and the other around 4?

Thanks

You should take a multi. You can continue to take CLA and Carnitine if you like


Whatsup with that 9 pill animal cuts?
lol, I got scared when I saw that huge pill package and even more scared when it started to burn my stomach. But I'm still alive :p and I've noticed it's working when I took 2 packages a day. Not much (in the eveing) when I take just 1 package.

The appetite supressing is not as great as slimxtreme used to be, but it helps (when you don't miss the second package.)

And no jittery/ancious/sleepkilling feelings present. So thats a big +

I've just started fitness, so I'll see how the real burning goes.

Glad to hear you like it so far.


Just finished Animal Cuts. Seems to work well. I could really tell the difference in how hungry I am when I don't take it. Will do them again.

The CCK boosting complex really helps crush appetite.

yep. did consider the am/pm kit. But wasn't planning to stack the REDuction am with hydroxy. e.g. 1st month REDuction am/pm. 2nd month hydroxy in the morning, then REDuction pm at night.

i figured switching between different products will keep my body from getting too used to a single product and hence build up immunity against it. wouldn't like that to happen :)

Just orderer Reduction once again, because I need something thats not too hard on the body. It helped me lose a few kg the last time. Atm I'll take anything that doesnt touch my sleeping.

Animal cuts is still great, but my sleeping patterns have been ruined since slimxtreme, so I haven't been able to take it the continuously yet.


Quick summary of all fat burners I took untill now:

Lipo6x : Worked great for a month, lost quiet some fat, had some good appetite suppressing. The next month it didnt do much anymore, except jittering me like hell. (- ±4Kg)
Hydroxycut Hardcore : Lost some weight, but made me feel uncomfortable (- ±2kg)
CL Reduction : Lost weight only the first week, but at least it kept my weight stable for the rest of the month. (- ±1.5Kg)
Slimxtreme : Lost some extreme weight, but also my sleeping patterns and I've been walking like a zombie/with minimal energy since I havent been taking it (- ±7kg)
Animcal Cuts : Works great when you take 2 packs a day (which is about a billion pills :p).

I also took some pure cartnitrine+creatine before I tried any of these, and that combo also worked very nicely. (some local brand)

so when is the best time to take the AM pill? first thing in the morning? right before a AM workout? cuz i plan on stacking it with WF and the AM/PM complex.

i run in the AM and lift at night. should i not take WF before running since I will now be taking the AM pill? and should i take the AM pill before running to get that burst of energy i normally get from WF? so as follows:

morning run: take AM only (or can i take both WF AND the AM pill in the morning?)
15 - 20 min before lifting in evening: WF
prep for sleep: PM

any suggestions on it would be great - thanks.

am pill before breakfast if possible. if you are working out in the morning and taking white flood before the workout. then move the am tabs to before lunch.

since you lift at night, take the am tabs before breakfast and the white flood before lifting (assuming lifting isnt too close to bed time)

I can only speak for myself but i don't think there's any miracle supplement that can make you control your eating habits if you work out and are hungry after its your choice to go to a fast food chain or eat something healthier. Just don't try and stop all at once slowly eat better try eating something lean and high in protein for dinner with a tall glass of water for starters.

Animal cuts I think is the best product at the moment. It has been the most gentle on my sleeping after Reduction. Its pretty much side effect free like Reduction. But it has appetite supression, which makes it the better choice (if your health/sleeping hasnt been ruined by slimxtreme)

I'll be using reduction untill I get my sleeping patterns totally fixed or animal cuts and reduction pm.

No - nothing like an EC stack in any way.

I space them out because I space out anything I take this way. I don't know if taking it your way would be just as good, because I've never tried it. Keep in mind; it's just something I found works - and there really isn't specified directions. It's two products by two different companies, so you may find it works better taking them the way you're suggesting - or you may not.

Animal Cuts,

Tried Animal Cuts once about 3 years back when my "cut" phase consisted of a lot of cardio following some weights in the gym. The result was that the diuretic made me appear like skeletor. My face looked gaunt, and the belly fat I had just looked shrivelled, with no real loss of fat. I also noticed a LOT of cramping on week 3, most likely because it was summer and I was getting nowhere near the water I should have been.

I'm now doing a different routine for cutting (I was definitely over training now), and think I want to try animal cuts again... Just a few questions, for the guys that know their ****, please...

1: I'm military now, and I wasn't before- Piss tests are often. Anything strange in Animal Cuts that's going to make me look like I'm doing anything I shouldn't? This is constantly a concern with supplements.

2: Caffeine: As per typical supplements, Animal Cuts doesn't list the amount of ingredient per dosing. I'm extremely sensitive to changes in caffeine. I'm more concerned, however, on the blowback afterwards. I get cripppling headaches if I don't ramp down, and they last a week. Anyone have any better info on the mg per dosage, since you're taking 2 packs a day? I don't want to get up above that 500 mg range/ day if I can help it. Thanks!

FYI..........Animal Cuts has been completely reformulated from 3 years ago:

http://www.animalpak.com/html/sections.cfm?ID=10

There is nothing in Cuts that should be banned by the military although it would behoove you to check with them.

Each pack of Cuts has about 2 cups of coffee worth of caffeine. What is great about the new formula is that you have the option of leaving out the red pill which has the majority of the caffeine if you like. Also the diuretic complex is in the blue pills so you have the option to leave those out as well.

Let me know if you need anything else.

I have never taken a fat burner before, and I have been doing some cardio and trying to keep a clean diet. Is there any side effects to fat burners? After reading some reviews I am going to try animal cuts. I also just got about 3/4 of a bottle of mitotropin from a friend. Is there anything to be concerned with, or rules to follow(like drinking alot of water...etc) while taking either of these products. Sorry for all the questions, I have just always been skeptical of products like these affecting my overall health. Thanks in advance for the advice.

I think the most important thing is to be sure to follow the dosing instructions as listed on the packaging. There seem to be an inordinate amount of questions in this thread and others that ask "how/when/how much of" with regards to various supplements when most of those questions can be answered by reading the box/bottle. It's good that you asked about water. I think with many supps, some of the negative side effects are definitely caused or worsened by not drinking enough. This can be especially true of products with stimulants (like a lot of fat burners). Definitely drink AT LEAST a gallon a day. Other than that, just be smart (don't overdo stims, etc.), remember that training and diet do most of the work (it seems like you're already working on that), and don't forget to listen to YOUR body - everybody reacts differently to supplements. What worked for someone else may not work for you, and vice versa.

Good luck!

Anybody try John Scott's Nitro fat burning supplements?

I'm about 225, down from 248 a few months ago. I've lost 10 pounds in the last 3 weeks from working out and dieting, but was thinking of incorporating these pills to keep me motivated and looking better. I currently start with a meal replacement shake in the morning with L-Glutamine; a granola bar or something as a snack, a couple sandwiches for lunch, a whey protein shake before my workout, a protein shake with l-glutamine after my workout, dinner, and casein/l-gutamine before I go to bed. Does this sound pretty good? It seems to be working so far.

Also, are any of these supplements bad for the stomach? I don't see anything that warns against it but thought maybe you guys had some good answers. Thanks!

One more thing; I have difficulty swallowing pills due to a small esophagus, is it okay to take apart the capsules? I dont' see anything saying not to, and I also don't see anything saying it's a time-release system.

-NO Xplode / Apex Max Protein / Pain Killers(before workout)
-CL Green Mag (after workout/before bed)

I was reading on this forum about people stacking hydroxycut and REDuction PM.

Would it be smart to stack Animal Cuts and REDuction PM or just use Animal Cuts?

Fat loss is my primary concern. Muscle gain is secondary. I workout 6 days a week and have a 4-day cycle and do 2-2.5 miles of cardio except on leg days.

I've taken NO Xplode and Apex for awhile and have had a great experience with them so I'm definitely sticking with those products. I also took ephedra when it was legal and lost 26lbs. Since that is no longer an option I need a good substitute. I've taken CellMass in the past and didn't enjoy it at all.

Any thoughts/concerns/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

So I've been reading up on these forums as well as using my own experience with products as a tool and I think I'm going to try this build:

-Animal Cuts
-NO Xplode / Apex Max Protein / Pain Killers(before workout)
-CL Green Mag (after workout/before bed)

I've been very interested in taking a fat burner more lately. I have a "pretty good" diet, drink 1+ gallon of water per day and take a great CL stack (ot,gm,gg,pw,bg,protein,fish oil). I'm around 5'8 and fluctuate between 155-160lbs lately. I want to shed off some fat around my lower abdomen region which i've been having trouble doing with diet, weights/cardio without losing muscle. Any recommendations on a fat burner that will help me lose some fat without making me lose a ton of weight or lose any muscle?

Hi, I have my first competition for best body in April and I 'm really confused and would like to maximize my workouts and build lean muscle and burn fat.

I was told to take Jack3d before my workout...this is very strong. Then I was advised Prototype 216 for amino acids and bcaa's. Are these ok to take together with a fat burner for a woman? There is so much information and supplements and it's very confusing.

Pre Workout:
Jack3d
Prototype 216
Ripped Freak - fat burner - is this good or hydroxy cut?
Glutamine

Post Workout:
Sytha 6
Vitamin E
Glutamine

I would love some advice!

REDuction will go very nicely with that stack you have above :)

I've been using Animal Cuts for a few weeks now. The only other "fat burner" I've ever taken was the ECA stack, and I have a lot of experience with that, so I'll compare the two. Also, I only take 1 packet of pills a day instead of 2. I take all the pills, no separating them.

- Animal Cuts stimulant effect is awesome. I can feel it kick in and it gives me a boost without overwhelming me. It's like a Goldilocks thing - not too powerful, not too weak. Much better than ECA. With ECA it was like jitter overload and I felt like a wreck ALL day. It also made it IMPOSSIBLE for me to sleep, even when my body became more "used" to the ECA near the end of a cycle. When I take Animal Cuts I can still get a night's sleep. I suspect that I would have more trouble with it if I took two packets a day, but I only ever took ECA in the mornings and NEVER twice a day either, so one batch of Animal Cuts in the morning is still a superior effect to one batch of ECA in the morning.

- Animal Cuts' appetite reduction is negligent. This is in direct contrast to ECA, which reduced my appetite to 0. That's okay, though, because I don't have a big problem with overeating.

- Animal Cuts has a laxative effect on me. Does anyone else experience that? Shortly after I take it I have to "go" badly. I don't mind, I just don't want to overstimulate that particular system of my body.

- Not sure if it is actually burning any fat, but as a supplement (not the pillar of your fat burning, but a SUPPORT for your diet/exercise routine) it's excellent. I'd definitely repurchase just for the nice, balancing energy boost.

Not sure you want to be taking Jack3d and Ripped Freak together (I'm going to go out on a limb and assume there are stims in the Ripped Freak). Also, not a huge fan of Proto 216 for your BCAA's...Xtend or Purple Wraath is probably a better choice. Animal Nitro if you prefer to get your amino's in pill form (I don't).

What exactly are you looking for in a burner (since this is the burner thread)? Energy? Non-stim burning? Advice would depend a lot on what you would prefer.

On a side note: The Syntha 6 and Jack3d are pretty decent products.

Another of the former Slim Xtreme fanatics here.. I've heard about a new Stimulant X coming out and thinking about giving it a shot when I find it. Anyone tried it with opinions on how it compares to Slim Xtreme? Thinking about giving it a run with Green Bulge Blue Up and Reduction PM. Any ideas if it's recommended to stack Lean FX with this new Stimulant X like it was before?

I've had decent results with this actually, i was sort of surprised. I didn't expect much results wise from it. Not the best product on the market for fat burning, but isn't bad for the price.

Hey all I've also asked this question in the "Overall NO Product" topic...but I was wondering if it would be ok to take White Flood along with Animal Cuts?...or is there too much stimulant between both supplements? Would like the Flood to help with my lifting while the Cuts benefits my cardio. Or is this just out of the question....I do my cardio right after lifting...so my plan was to down the Cuts with my flood shake. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

A-Cuts stacks with A-Pump so I'd assume it would be fine with any other pre-workout supplement. If anything, I'd just be careful to space them out so that you're not taking your fat burner and pre-WO supp too close together..

Thats what I'm concerned with ....I was going to take my Animal Cuts along WITH the White Flood before going to the gym as I do my lifting then immead. followed by cardio. So taking the White Flood along with my first pack of Cuts probably wouldn't be a good idea?

Have you tried Dark Rage by MHP? It has NO and stims in it, and the stims are powerful.

When we formulated Animal Cuts we took into account that most lifters take a pre-workout supplement with stims in it, so it made sense to have the stims optional. We did this with Pump and M-Stak also. It's a great option and no other products offer it.

So just take the red pill out of the cuts and I should be fine taking them both at the same time? Thanks for all the help guys.

I've been on it for about 5 days and lost a solid pound, wasn't looking for anything radical. I will say this though, it doesn't put me in a crabby mood like the EC stack did. I'm sure I'll have more to report after I'm on it for a while longer.

I have to say iSatori MX-LS7 was the most effective burner for me. I was 215 now 172lbs from clean diet and 3-4 days Circuit lifting/2 days cardio and help from supps like these

I've tried these since ephedra ban:
Atrophex (over priced, hyped, just meh, pee'd alot)
Lipo 6 black (just didn't do it for me)
Lean System 7 (good)
MX-LS7 (fav)
Hydroxycut Hardcore (got Cancer in my femur a month later, yes seriously and I'm still wondering if there is a link since they reformulated it in the past year. Also made me feel like chit)
Ripped Fuel Extreme (ok)

I think its high EGCG, Caff., Coleus Forskoli (Forlean) and Gugg. in MX-LS7 that does it.

Need to try OxyElite or Cuts next but that chit's expensive, rather spend $$ on Protein and Torrent and maybe a case of Endorush or Xenergy.

I'm currently on a strict low carb low fat diet, eating only low fat meats (lean turkey, turkey bacon, chicken breasts, baked fish, shrimp, egg whites, chicken sausage, etc) and I've lost 21 lbs in 3 weeks on said diet, but now I seem to have hit a wall, so to say. I weight train 4 times a week as well. Looking to throw a fat burner into the mix. Is Animal cuts the way to go now a days? Was looking at the BB.com store and it's rankings, saw animal cuts as the best ranked fat burner. Years back when I was at my leanest, I took Hydroxycut, and while it seemed to help keep me cut, it also made me jittery and a lot of times I felt like chit when on it. I have to assume that now a days there's a better fat burner out there.

What else besides Animal cuts should I look into, or should I not even look in another direction?

Its been 2 1/2 months on my journey...First two weeks was all mental preparation, as opposed to just eating 2 big meals a day I am now eating smaller portions and 5x a day keeping my calorie count below 2,000..... 2 months into it went from 266 to 228 with no supplements whatsoever, to me that is an accomplishment in itself

Now im on here looking for some advice on what supplements to boost my fat burning and definition... I am 5'10 and 228 lbs looking to go down to at least 195.....I am leaning towards the Animal Pak and have done some research

My question is:

Is the Animal Pak a good starter and if so what can I take along with it or should that be enough?

please I need some advice and guidance

I was also looking into the P90x workout routine any info

Hey
Just wanted to let you know I am using oxyelite pro and in my experience it doesn't work. I am almost through a full bottle, it gives minor energy boost and no fat loss that I can notice. My diet is ok and I expected to lose a few pounds based on the rave reviews. I think most positive reviews are either having placebo effects or are being paid by USP Labs. I have taken many different fatburners and never had so little results. If I were you I would take the cuts. The first formulation was good so this should be great!
