I'm taking Betasine now, for the past 3 days, feel slightly stronger, more energetic and my breathings better. I'm stacking it with NO2 Black.

I'll see how the combo works for a month or so.

I also pair carbs with BA, seems to handle the parthesia better (although I still experience it). I take BA with citrulline malate. So far, so good, I'm actually starting to think that I enjoy runs/sprints now, lol. It seems the more I move when training, the better I can handle the parthesia; I can't seem to concentrate during lifting and don't do as well, but most definitely notice an increase in work capacity and intensity during training. Probably because I have to sit around and wait while recovering from a set, hm.

Everything's in powder-form, I like to make adjustments and see what works for me.

^^^^

How are you finding the malate with the BA? Have you tried either individually or have you started taking both from the get go?

Its all pretty much the same

Get some bulk powder for cheap, everything else can be added from bulk for cheap as well (although its not a stim so caffeine before training if you need it and some creatine somewhere and you're set).


Have something to eat to prevent parthesia

Yeah, I have some creatine that I take daily, and I have some anhydrous caffeine but I haven't used it in a while. I started the BA bulk powder and CM together from the start 'cause I'm too lazy to see if there's a difference, lol.

I have used the Betasine before buying the bulks, and I did notice a bit of a difference but not much, and it made me really sick once (I don't fare too well taking pills). It's a lot to take in one sitting. I suspect that a good chunk of the vast improvement in performance with BA/CM combo has to do with easier absorption rate of the powder form alone. I haven't decided if I'll try it without the CM just to see the results individually since the flying solo on Betasine.

I'll try increasing my carb powder ratio and see if that helps. Thanks, Ian.

I bought some scales and spent yesterday weighing out enough yohimbine and caffeine for about 24 pills.

The thing is though, the reading on the scales kept getting stuck even though they are digital, they weigh down to 10mg and a dose of yohimbine is 5 mg.

You don't need to know, but should I have a heart attack I need to leave a account of what happens

Myprotein seems pretty much like trueprotein.com for Europe. Slightly higher prices but unlike trueprotein, the shipping will not completely kill you.

If you would like to use my coupon/referral code MP54254 for 5% off, it will be appreciated. (I could not find any rules forbidding referral codes, but if it's not kosher just let me know or edit my post)

Whether or not you knew about myprotein before I started talking about it in D&S is irrelevant.


I feel denied I didn't start using my referral code .

I could have made a fortune with the number of people that use them now after I started talking about it


*curses lack of foresight*

So, what's the difference between taking Carnosine, and Beta Alanine? I did some research, but it's not clear.
