got tribulus?
Is trib worth anything, if so which one. I see alot of hype around androtest but seeing how I can run other stuff for similiar prices leaves me confused as usual. Apreciate any info.

Another study done by Dr. Jose Antonio found that tribulus had NO EFFECT on strength or body composition. (Intl J Sports Nut Ex Metab, 10:208, 2000)
Bulgarian scientists found that tribulus had NO EFFECT on testosterone, LH or androstenedione in young men. (J Ethnopharm, August 2005)

I think trib could be effective for a much older person whose test has naturally declined but the studies def. show that for younger men, it's pretty much worthless.

MF shows studies saying that it boosts LH (leutinizing hormone) which in turn tells your balls to make more testosterone. they have shown that it incresed testosterone production up to 30 % above the normal state no matter of age when taken in a bunch of studies.
you need at least 300 mg of the goods with at least 45% sterodine? not sure the exact spelling. you should take it when you wake up and with in an hour before working out with your pre workout shake. apprently it takes 3-5 days for it to start taking affect and you need to take it twice daily even on non training days with a meal or you start back at square one because you just piss out the excess.
i just started trying it and ive noticed diffrences but im taking only 300 mg, the bulgarian is 700 mg or close to that. im going to cycle that one possibly next time if i notice a diffrence when this bottle is done and im off it for a few weeks.
but then the best lab rat is your self. thats why im kind of on the ropes but like i said i will find out when this bottle is done. hope that helped

Raising serum test will help erectile disfunction, raising free test will help in muscle building.
