Hydroxicut Hardcore
Why is it not at most stores beside GNC?? Also, is it worth the money? I m starting to feel dead all the time eating clean for 2 months and now weight is starting to go up after losing.

GNC sells it because of contract with muscletech...I think..so I heard...anyways.
Does it work?
Well I was given a free 210 capsule bottle. I have taken about 1/3th of it. Taking six pills a day 30min to 1hour before meals. I have felt alittle more energetic with it. Will I actually purchase this when mine runs out...Possibly...probably. It has effected me ok. Before I fell out of the gym for two weeks I lost 15 pounds in one month. I also worked out 5 days a week had a very strict diet. Stayed very active on weekends when I wasnt in the gym.
But it's just like any other supplemnt it is going to effect everyone differantly. I like. But, I have also heard people say it didnt do anything. There is also a guy that goes to the gym with me that swears buy it.
If you wanna try it go for it.

Even though everyone hates on Muscletech....I'm running a 210 count of this and I actually really like it. I take it upon waking (3 caps) then 3 more caps right before working out w/ 1 cap of green tea extract. I feel leaner then I have before, but you can't give it all the credit....DIETING must be in check for sure.

It is a supplement, just like the other thousands of supplements. It is not a miracle worker. It surely will complement your weight loss, but 98% of your weight loss success is your diet and your daily exercise.

its aight but totally not worth the money
if you want to supplement and your diet is in line and everything then start doing research on an EC stack, much cheaper and more effective IMO
good luck man

It definitely helped supress hunger for me and I did lose some weight initially, but it wasn't worth it for me to continue taking it. I always felt sick after I took the stuff (like I was going to throw up all day) and at nights I would get very hot and my heart would start racing when I tried to go to sleep. The adverse effects were not worth the quicker weightloss in my book.

Your problem is probably that you are eating "clean". Completely unnecessary.

you need cheat meals, cheat days. Switch up your cals, one day 200 more, the next 200 less.
You need to keep tricking your body to stay away from "starvation mode"

ephedrine....Bronk-Aid or Primatine 25mg caps from a drugstore...$8 for 60
caffeine...Jet-Alert 200mg caps from just about anywhere...$2 for 90
RESEARCH BEFORE TRYING OR YOU WILL DIE
http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=106816881
i don't recommend EC although it seems to work...I'd rather stick to good ole fashioned hard work and strict diet...if you don't have the willpower or diet no amount of supplements or exercise will save you

Hell I'll have some of that death too... Lol but as far as the hydroxycut, for me it worked wonderfully. I used it twice last year, two cycles, i mean, and lost over 20 pounds each time and i was only using a semi-strict diet. But as everyone knows, everyone reacts differently. I know one thing, make sure you drink plenty of water. Feels like a knife to the stomache if you don't...

Hydroxy Cut, just basically raises your body temperature and has a lot of caffeine. When I took two in the morning then one in the afternoon before my workout. I was working out suddenly I can feel it coming on, I was sweating way more in a short amount of time, and I had to go on the elliptical machine to burn the caffeine off. I did it for fifteen minutes and sweat so much. But I did lose weight from Hydroxy Cut, but felt like I was going to have a stroke. I would just take caffeine pills, personally.

I take over 600mg caffeine a day. 4 REDuction in the morning, plus an XL Dunkin Donuts black coffee. If I had money I'd buy more stimulants. Mmmm! I LOvE SPEED! (Wait, that doesn't sound good)

How was your diet at the time? I lost tons of weight when I adjusted my diet and wasn't on a thermogenic. When I was taking Arson (pretty much the same thing, owned by the same company), it didn't do ****... this was because my diet wasn't in check.

There's 300mg in three pills. So that's 100mg in one pill.

Wasn't this caused by people doing insane amounts of EC? From what I recall people were O.D'ing on the stuff basically. Anyhow, I never noticed anything great from any "fat burner", Hydroxycut Hardcore and VPX Meltdown just burn your wallet more than any fat. Besides, you can lose 1-2 pounds(hopefully from fat loss) through a calorie deficit fairly easily and you really don't want to lose more than that do you?

Red Bull has more then 300mg caffeine. One cup of coffee is 100mg caffeine. I took 600mg and had and XL coffee from Dunkin Donuts... so probably close to 800mg of caffeine. SPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED!
3 pills is a serving. Also Red Bull has many forms of caffeine in their drink, not just "caffeine".
