Looks like citrulline is the winning one: http://examine.com/blog/nitric-oxide...rotransmitter/

I find a combination of citrulline malate, agmatine sulfate, and some nitrates source is the best for pumps.

Tried a variety of doses both solo and alongside other ingredients. Only ever got chest pains and occasional headaches depending on what else I did or didn't take. Maybe I'm broken... no pumps, enhanced V02max or accelerated hypertrophy for Dodge. Wish I had a BP monitor or went out and borrowed one to see where it was going to

I've experience similar things. Almost always get lightheadedness and headaches with nitrates. And was dosing between 500-1000mg Citrulline Nitrate.
But I love straight Citrulline...the combo with Agmatine does wonders for pumps for me.________________________________________________________________________

Contraindications with other medications, chronic anxiety, environmental factors, family history of cardiovascular disease, et cetera. type-A personalities are more susceptible to any sort of cardiovascular anomalies because of idiosyncratic stress responses. It's really a wide open field of possibilities.

I would agree if a compensatory response wasn't autonomic. It could be specific to me because I am on a lot of stimulants consistently; i.e. it could be some kind of Hering–Breuer reflex complication because of the way my respiratory musculature responds- it's hard to explain because it's not EXACTLY shortness of breath, more like impaired diaphragm control

EXCELLENT paper. this guy knows the topic.
Citrulline Malate my prefered too, by far. arginine gives acne bursts and stomach discomfort to say the least
Ornithine is good for urea cycle/flushing but no real benefit pre WO
2-4gr 20min or so before WO, to feel the effect at the beginning of the WO
it's REALLY effective at boosting energy and strength.Last edited by Health45; 05-21-2013 at 03:48 PM.
