I'm currently going to stop using REDuction. It actually kept me awake both times when I used it. For around 3 hours.
[QUOTE=CONTROLLED LABS;359729981]do you get them from spicy foods or Cayenne?[/QUOTE]
no to both of those. It usually wasn't a headache per say but it was just like added pressure in my head.
alot of people like our PhenomV1. it isn't very stimmy but it works great. the appetite suppression is second to none. not to mention it makes you sweat the weight off

take the PM dose before dinner instead of before bed then
But is there any reason for it to be keeping me awake? It doesn't contain any caffeine like ingredients in the PM dosage correct?

possibly a reaction to GABA, pre dinner is a good time as well
I'm using ripped fuel 5x. it doesn't upset my stomach, or make me jittery, but I get a6-8 hour energy boost from it still. 1 or 2 tabs a day and I'm fine all day, work outs are more focused as well.
[QUOTE=Invictus_Nth;359379951]I reviewed the past couple of pages, and didnt see anyone ask the following questions - however if I *am* repeating this question, I apologize....
I have pretty aggressive gastrointestinel issues that I have to be cognizant of regarding taking new supps. And in addition to losing weight, I'd really like to take a fat burner to boost my energy level during my workouts. Since I've been eating more clean, my energy level has been dragginh and its impacting my workouts. But my concern with a FB is taking something that will cause, well...diarrhea.
Is there a fat burner anyone's taken that they feel avoided that issue for them? Or on the flip side, is there a supp anyone took that made them do just that?
Sorry for the grossness of the question - but I don't want to end up taking something that will cause me to be locked in the BR.
Thanks in advance for any insight![/QUOTE]
Hey guys,
I'm new here but I felt like I should join the community sooner or later! :D
I'm in need of some adivce.
I'm currently on the GBC workout program. Supplements I'm taking are:
Swanson Vitamins HCL
Swanson Vitamins Malic Acid
Swanson Vitamins Multi Vitamins
Swanson Vitamins Alpha Liopic Acid
All the Whey WPI
I'm indecisive between SlimXtreme and Animal Cuts for assisting with some stubborn fat loss and expose the lean muscle I've been killing myself for for the past two months. :D
I plan on stacking that with the above items as well as CL White Flood and REDuction PM.
Could you guys help me decide between SlimX or AC. Also if it's not much of a hassle, when and how much I should take of either, White Flood, and RED PM.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Needs some help finding a fat burner that will fit my needs.
This is what i have tried
Slim Xtreme: A little too extreme for me, had hard time breathing.
Lipo6: Works only for 1 week then my body adjusts to it and have to take too much of it to feel anything.
Im looking for something that will not affect my sleep too much, most importantly my mind and my breathing. Looking for something that will give me energy aswell.
While taking a break from fat burners all i consume is caffiene pills which gives me no energy since my body probably has adapted to it.
Anything else left?

I trust your advice, but don't know if I want to take it again. I'm currently stacking White Flood, Green Mag, and Purple Wrath and thought it would be good to add in REDuction. It DOES work for shedding off some unwanted fat, but the headache I got for not getting enough sleep from the REDuction wasn't doing it for me.
I might give it another go next spring when I want to lean up a bit for summer. In other news, I'm loving the other CL products especially the Green Mag.

good stack, but if you are taking white flood go for a product like REDuction A/PM since there is only 1 dose of stims in it as opposed to other fat burners which are typically 2-3

I have taken BSN Atrophex but didn't really notice anything. I've been seeing a lot of ads for Lipo 6x. Can anyone give me any advice on whether Lipo 6x is a good one to get on? Any advice on which would be a good one to get on?

Get Hyperdrive 3.0 (formerly called Venom) from ****!
Best one out there....most of these yahoo's on here are product reps. Arthur (owner of ****) is a stand up guy and takes his own advice. Do some research on the company and you'll see what I'm talking about!
Here is my experience with Lipo 6X Black (I'm a sucker for new products):
Appetite suppression-10+ (off the charts!):
Only for the first week, however. This one is a bit bizarre. I still felt hungry, but was satisfied with less food. As soon as I started eating, I instantly felt full. Consequently, I ate much less food. This effect, however, wore off after the first week.
Energy- 8.5:
Again, only for the first week. About 20 minutes after a dose, I began to feel a bit jittery. It was very subtle, just enough to know that the supplement was eliciting a physiologic response, and not at all distracting. My resting HR never increased (a solid 72), so I was pleased that this supplement did not cause my heart to race (like Hydroxycut). However, when taken before a workout, the energy was crazy. During a cardio session, my HR was 145, and I was just barely noticeably winded. Lipo 6X Black is actually the best pre-workout supplement I've ever taken (excluding White Flood, of course) Sadly, this effect also ended after 1 week.
Fat Burning-2:
I noticed no thermogenic response, and I'm convinced that this supplement is totally ineffective at burning fat.
Overall Impressions:
I took Lipo 6X Black as instructed, the full 6 pills per day dose from the very beginning. My workout is solid, and my diet is decent. I lost 3.5 pounds the first week, then not a single pound in the subsequent 3 weeks. The first week fat loss was principally due to my lack of hunger. My recommendation: save your money.

I tried Dialene 4x and had good results. I had to stop because I got headaches. Could be my fault since I didn't really take any time off between switching to different fat burners. It really did the trick for me and I lost about 8 pounds on it for taking almost 3/4 of the pills. I really liked it effects but am not sure if it caused my headaches in the gym or if it was me. I will hit the gym again soon and I will no soon enough.
Meta Slim
It's not a very advertised product and it's rather cheap - It does the job, does not keep me up.. strong on the stomach though especially in the morning!
As for an energy boost.. um, I haven't noticed much of an energy boost.. but then again I'm a guy who is used to drinking almost 10 cups of coffee per day.. my nerves laugh at stimulants.
Just started taking REDuction AM/PM...Man, I sleep better, have more energy throughout the day and my weight lost just took off. I started taking it 2 weeks ago, I added a mile jog plus the supps, I've lost 8 pounds in two weeks.

[QUOTE=GianAT;165610841]has anyone tried or heard anything about Precision Engineered FIREBALL liqui-fusion diet pills??!? many say it is the same as hydroxycut hardcore but with hoodia. If not what pill can be better than this one[/QUOTE]
Fireball liqui-fusion is a real booster! I just started taking it 2 days ago and man does it wake you up to say the least!! I take 3 pills in the morning like suggested and that seems to be too much! YOU HAVE TO EAT SOMETHING WHEN TAKING THIS OR YOUR GONNA BE SICK! Good stuff but follow the directions for sure!!!
If your starting this product, My personal suggestion is NOT to take 3 pills the first time out, reason being that "with food. Big Breakfast" it kicks in quick, it made me feel very uneasy for the first 2 hrs. then it died down. died down meaning I still felt alert but not jumpy alert. I would suggest that you start of with 1 pill twice a day and see how your PERSONAL BODY REACTION IS AND JUDGE FROM THERE! as for me. 2 pills a day 4 to 6 hrs. apart works good. Also remember to DRINK LOTS OF WATER and EAT QUALITY FOODS!! nothing with caffine or any other boosters.
Tomorrow I'm going to monitor my HR and see how much of a jump I have after taking 1 pill like I suggested.
which would you suggest to be the strongest fat burner, mitotropin, slim xtreme, or Reduction? i seem to have a high tolerance to stims (even when i cycle off of them). thanks!
[QUOTE=MariaCL;368360201]which would you suggest to be the strongest fat burner, mitotropin, slim xtreme, or Reduction? i seem to have a high tolerance to stims (even when i cycle off of them). thanks![/QUOTE]
Haven't used Reduction, but I do have experience with the other two. SX and mito are very different, with mito being more of a pure fat burner and SX a pure stimulant. I desensitized to SX fairly quickly so Mito would be my recommendation.
[QUOTE=Bearster18;358534511]I wish I knew why reduction gave me a damn headache[IMG]https://www.fitnessphreaks.info/workout/upload/34/b/happy.gif[/IMG][/QUOTE]
The first few times i used it i got a headache as well, but after the first few times i never got the headaches again... could have been completely unrelated is my only guess.
Been using it for 3 weeks now! great energy. slimming down.

I think you will enjoy REDuction, its not solely a stim product and the PM doesnt even have stims in it, so you will notice some good results
8 days into Mitotropin...not feeling much of anything except increased sweating during workouts. My stomach has also been pretty upset while on it (with a clean diet) so I may be stopping it soon even though I've dropped a few lbs.
Compared with Reduction and Mitotropin, Cuts seems to be the only stim to make me "feel" anything although I dropped weight with them all.
[QUOTE=admin;2805741]If you had to pick just ONE ephedra-free fat burning product, what would be the best one?
Please pick product and include the brand. Give your reasons. The best answers will be displayed on the main Bodybuilding.com site for millions of people to see!
(Note: This is not a discussion about how or when to take fat burners, if you should take fat burners, or why some fat burners are NOT good. Just list your absolute favorite fat burning product and give your detailed reason.)[/QUOTE]
With out a doubt the best on the market is Nutrex Lipo 6x! You can not dispute the results from the masses. I have tried almost every thermogenic fat burner out there. All fail in comparison to Nutrex Lipo 6x. The best advantages to me is there is not extreme highs and lows. You never get too amped, it is just a smooth burn all day long. I recommend this product to everyone that asks!!

REDuction is pretty low on the stim side, but accomplishes the goal without making you feel like your high ;)
Has anyone tried GAT's jetFUEL? I'm getting desperate to lose these last 15 pounds. I've tried:

I have not tried that. However, I have tried Dialene 4x (got headaches, may or not be related to Dialene) and I also tried Animal Cuts. Both worked well!! I would recommend both of those. Cuts is nice because you can remove the stims if you don't want to take them (I believe the red pill). Just my two cents.

[QUOTE=genaden;371452101]Gotta love the product rep answers to everything "buy my product it really works!"[/QUOTE]
I agree, I have had it with these reps from companies with endless plugs in every other posts. I have used controlled labs in the past but I think I am going to ban from using their stuff if this keeps up.
I'm planning on stacking REDuction AM/PM with Species Nutrition Lipolyze. Anyone have any experience with the latter, or a similar stack?
I agree with you. It is difficult to ascertain if people are creating dummy profiles to promote particular products and to ask leading questions to generate interest about the product they are promoting. It just isn't necessary. In fact, I think it just confuses the consumers and ultimately delays the sales cycle. I think you can identify most of the bogus posts.
At this point I'm leaning toward USP labs Recreate, VPX Meltdown or Lipo 6x. I report back later with my 2 week results.
Make it a great day!
[QUOTE=MikeinNJ;263278931]I would go with Lipo-6X. Got a month's supply and it helped me lose about 30lbs from August 1st to Sept 1st. Went from 250 to 219. This was with cardio only 2-3 times a week. The only bad thing I can say about it is that it kept me from falling asleep at night since I was taking it at 1:30-2 in the afternoon and trying to force myself to sleep at 11. Taking it earlier in the day would have definitely helped with that. During August, I was working full time and did not have time to run every day while working 60 hours a week. I started back at college in September, running 5-6 days a week for an hour a day.
I did try Reduction for September and October. I lost another 19 lbs over the course of September/October and plateued at 200 during October. I didn't FEEL Reduction at all, whereas Lipo gave me a great euphoric feeling throughout the day, reduced appetite, etc. The PM formula for Reduction DID give me some awesome restful nights of sleep.
I'm on vaca right now in Florida until New Years. I've got another month's supply of Lipo6x waiting for me at home. I'll be working the month of January until I go back to school at the end of the month. With Lipo6x, cardio, and a controlled, consistent work schedule where I wake/sleep the same everyday, I hope to break the 200lb barrier for good (Been bouncing between 202 and 198) and get down to 190 or lower by the time I get back to school, and continue to cut down to 175-180.
Hopefully the Lipo6x can come through again. I've cycled off of everything since early November and have not gained anything back nor have I lost anything more since going off all supps.
Definitely give Lipo6x a try. It worked great for me, though Reduction may work better for you. What works well for some, won't always work well for others. My cousin broke out into hives after taking Lipo6x, whereas I did not. And we're blood relatives, so who knows.[/QUOTE]
3 days a week I wake up at 5:30 and immediately go to the gym. Start lifting at about 5:45. Lipo 6 mandates waiting 30 min before lifting. Do you think it will still be effective in this situation? The other 3 days a week, I work out later and can wait the required 30 min.
I'm about 163 now, at 5'11. I'm trying to get down to 145 or so (so I can show abs). I'm not real chunky - so what's the best fat burner option for me?
I'm leaning towards Lipo 6 at the moment.
Thanks!

Hi. I'd go with the new BetaStax or SX (SlimExtreme) by Anabolic Xtreme based on personal results however be careful with SX its hardcore so read up on it before you try it.
I used the old animal cuts with nice results so the new one should be even better. Look in to that as well.
p.s. I have not tried the fat burned by controlled labs because the ridiculous amount of pimping that it has in these forums makes me almost certain that its crap and I hate companies that overpimp.

Thanks for the suggestion. I already ordered the Lipo 6, so I'll give it a try and report back. If it doesn't work, I may try SX since I'm hearing a lot of good things about it too.
Bit of advice please fellas....im currently using Maximuscle Thermobol, I cant post links but the ingredients is:
Per 1 capsule
Bitter Orange Peel (Citrus Aurantium) 325mg Vit B12 - Cyanocobalamin RDA - 20,000% 200?g
L-Tyrosine 300mg D-Biotin RDA -117% 180?g
Caffeine 153mg Chromium RDA (From Chromium Polynicotinate) 100?g
Green Tea extract(90% polyphenols) 100mg Capsaicin extract from Hot Cayenne pepper 120?g
Guarana seed power 12mg Vit B5 (D-Calcium Pantothenate) RDA - 500% 30mg
Bioperine? (Black pepper extract) 5mg Vit-B1 (Thiamin Hcl) RDA - 1786% 25mg
could anyone advise me whether I should or could stack another fat burner with the thermobol. If so which other fat burners would be safe to stack?
Thanks
I started taking Geen Tea Extract (I would drink it but I only like black and orange tea) 1 pill two times a day and have already lost 4lb in just under 3 weeks. I have a set caloric intake and have trained 7 days a week for 6 years. I've weighed 195 like a rock for 1 year so any weight loss can only be atributed to the Green Tea Supplement. It's very inexpensive (about $10 for a couple month supply) at your local Walgreens/CVS/WalMart....and its good for you to boot!! Like I said I lift 4 days and run/swim 3 days a week so It's not like I'm sitting on a couch hoping to burn calories through a magic pill. Each pill has a moderate 50mg of caffiene so theres no "super buzz" followed by a crash. Just thought I would throw that out there.

From these previous comments, it seems like Slim Xtreme is one of the strongest if not the strongest fat burner here. Does it result in a lot of muscle loss? I want to keep as much lean mass from my bulk as possible.
Anyone taken Cytolean V2? Do you take it every day even non-workout days?
