VERY quick question on X-factor/Max-out
Well im on day 17 of my max-out cycle, got a miserable headache i tried to troop it out but couldnt lol, took 1 tylanol. I understand that NSAID's will hurt my gains but is htis going to ruin my muscle growth for the day or be like starting my cycle at day 1?

The effects of X-Factor? can be hindered by the consumption of certain drugs or supplements. Minimize the intake of pain medications containing acetaminophen, ibuprofen, or aspirin, NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs)
|
You will basically make no gains while on Max-Out. This is because NSAIDs block the COX-2 pathway that arachidonic acid works through. You might see something out of the icariin and 25R spirostan, but overall you'll just be throwing your money away.
Edit: Did you mean continuous use of NSAIDs or just for one day? One day probably won't affect much.

IT was just one day, one tylanol. Im stressing out that i ruined my cycle. Pretty much my question is it like my cycle is beginning from day 1 again, or will it just hinder my gains for the day.

Nah it might slow down progress for a day or 2, but you'll live. Try eating something with potassium, like a banana, when you get a headache before you go for the Tylenol, it should help.

Agreed. Its also just one day. In the scheme of life your health is more important than how your body looks. Either way, you will be fine and your cycle is far from ruined.

Well im only on day 17 so the AA probably hasnt fully kicked in but the 25R Spiritol has deff given me some strength gains. I was most worried that taking the nsaid would pretty much reset my cycle to day 1 but now seems like it wont. Hopefully by day 20-25 the AA will kick in =] So far I deffinitly am liking the maxout

I explained in there. There is a difference between free test and overall test. THe majority of the test boosters promoted in there were divinal based. Divanil binds to shbg and helps create more free test. That would be a good thing in any lifter. No one said they would work miracles and you could throw your diet and training out the window. But at "that age" where you just "easily get gains" I notice better gains while on a natty t-booster than off.

Ill be running differentiations of natural supps for the next couple years. Then I'll see where I'm at. It seems like you put too much stock in supps. They aid in your diet and training. I'm growing right now because I'm adding weights or reps everytime I train and in a calorie surplus. The supplements are just the icing on the cake.

actually thats exactly what im saying. no need for most supps at that age because you will get crazy results if doing things right. at 19 i only took creatine for my first time and got awesome results without even being strict with diet and exercise. someone experimenting so soon will be probably end up taking roids at a early age.

No offense, but I'm about 207 or 208 and leaner than you.. and I started lifting at a measly 160 pounds. I guess awesome results is subjective. I'm still way far from the physique I want to end up with. I have no intention on trying roids. I had jack **** for results with poor diet and exercise. There are benefits to certain t-boosters between 18-21.

btw i havent continously lifted since then at all. i atleast took off a few years after 19 and i didnt get too serious until about 2 years ago. but in the last year i have put on 70lbs from what i was at before from losing so much weight. and only in the last couple years have i gotten into supplements and even at my age still have not used at test booster and am fine.
