hey...
I recently started an EC stack about two-three weeks ago. It is my first time ever. I haven't notice anything yet in regards to the scale, but have tremendous energy and my hunger has decreased. I try not to gauge anything by the scale (very hard though!) and use my clothes as a measurement. I am currently cutting, so who knows what is really doing the trick. Here is what method I followed:

Care to share yours?

You gotta be consistent and keep the diet tight. There is no pill or supp that is going to burn fat any faster.
Bottom line, save your $$...

EC stack is great for energy. It will only give you energy ..not help you with fat loss. Ditto what Kim said.

I'm using an EC stack at the moment. I'm in harvest season on my farm (grueling), so the extra energy boost is appreciated.

False. EC has been clinically proven to increase metabolism/fat loss.

Good to know!
I've never done the ECA stack, so I can't speak from experience. But is the EC stack as effective, even without the aspirin?

x2. I have to say that the largest benefit is not the increased energy but the decreased appetite. It makes compliance to a diet so much easier! Unfortunately, both the increased energy and appetite suppression go away after a few weeks.

Only some studies showed the addition of aspirin to increase the effect, and that was only in obese people. It's dangerous to your stomach to continually take that much aspirin, so it's generally recommended to omit it. Trust me, I've done the E/C stack plenty, and I never missed the aspirin (of course there's a chance I don't know what I'm missing...).

Agreed; the aspirin was only added to give it a longer effect, but it's really not needed. If you look around for more studies, ec worked just as well as eca.

Good to know, and thank you! I had always wondered if I was stacking 'lite,' or not benefiting because I omit the aspirin (for the same reasons you've mentioned Tiffany).
With that said, it's almost 11:00 AM here, so I'm gonna go stack now! :P

If you have any thoughts of competing, make sure you check out the banned substance list for any organization you may compete in. I know that ephedrine is on the banned substances list for INBF.

Ephedra is not available but you can get ephedrine HCL in over the counter asthma medications like Bronkaid and Primatene.
