Help With Ephedra

once was fat · 12-14-2003, 09:35 PM

I am planning on taking ephedra tommorow pre workout.

These are the ingredients.

ABB
Speed Stack Rtd lemon lime
Ma Haung extract (ephedra sinica)(root stem) 313mg
Ephedra alkaloids 25mg
Bittr orange extract 586mg
Synephrine 11mg
caffeine 198 mg
Gurana extract 22mg

1. I have never used ephedra before. I am wondering what I should expect with this one ready to drink supplement. How will I know if I should not be using ephedra.

2. If I have a bad experience with this rtd how long will the effects last.

3. Has anyone used this exact rtd, and is this a mild or strong ephedra product.

4. I do not have any health problems as far as heart. I used to have high blood pressure but since I lost weight I am back to normal.

One more thing My body can handle alot of caffeine so Im not so worried about that.

Thanks for your help in advanced. Planning on taking it tommorow. Im a little nervous about this.

You should be fine, heart condition is a key factor, if you feel comfortable with that than you'll have no worries...

that dosage of the RTD looks perfect for your body size... you won't feel overly jittery... but you will feel slightly wired... If you like the effects of the RTD with ephedra, buy some pure ephedrine HCL (pill form) and caffeine pills and make your own Ephedra and Caffeine stack, it's dirt cheap and works better than anything I've tried... it's awesome to take half hour before your workout, then focus yourself on the exercise and put everything else outside your head... you will be amazed at how hard you can push yourself... I have seen the LARGEST body fat loss when i was doing cardio every other day and using ECA stack... (dieting as well... of course)

How long do the effects last?

HoldDaMayo · 12-14-2003, 10:30 PM

about 2-4 hours for me, about the 1st and 2nd hour are the most noticeable, after that it tapers off...

welcoem to teh darkside, ha ha

j/k man. You should be fine man, just don't overdo it the first time and you will be straight, probably have one of the best WO you have had in a while... good times

Yes, I've used the same shit. It'll getcha heart rate going decent. And remember it is a stimulant so common side effects are nervousness, increased heart rate, possible jitters, dry mouth, and possible shortness of breath. I've also experienced clamy palms.. But all of the mentioned effects aren't things you really have to worry about. If you have bad blood pressure or heart diesese I'd suggest you stay away from it, but other than that - GO FOR IT MAN!

Hmmmmmmmm I am a little worried. I just dont want to have a bad reaction from the ephedra, but I want to experince something new.

once was fat · 12-15-2003, 09:15 AM

If I have had high blood pressure in the past like 4 months ago. Do you think I will have a problem with ephedra. My blood pressure as of now is right online. Thanks everyone. Dont mean to be a chicken about this stuff.

Darkkmind · 12-15-2003, 03:19 PM

As long as you don't have any heart problems you should be good to go. I lost around 12 lbs in around a month when I was taking it back in the fall. Had lots of energy too. Give it a try most peeps I know luv the shit including yours truly.

Var · 12-15-2003, 04:07 PM

Better stock up on that stuff if u like it. My gym carries ABB, but they're all ephedra free now. The new ones have Synephrine instead. Doesnt compare.

plouffe · 12-15-2003, 04:17 PM

I just buy some shit called BLACK ICE at party stores... 3 per package at 99 cents... 1 pill for a workout. They work great. You can also buy bottles of 20 STACKER 3's at gas stations for pretty cheap ( at least by me ). You don't have to worry man. And even if you might die, everyones doing it!

I'm just playin - I'm the EPHEDERINE VETERAN! Anything with any form of ephedra is goooooood

haha

once was fat · 12-15-2003, 09:19 PM

Hey everyone I am still alive and ticking. Just kidding.

Well my exprience with ephedra sucked. I did not feel anything at all. The only thing that happened was I was talking to myself while working out, scary.

I am not trying to sound cocky, but I think self motivation is far more better than any pill or drug. Since I started working out and seeing my body change overy time it has put a lot of self motivation in me.

BOTTOM LINE

"WORK HARD AND THEN WORK EVEN HARDER, AND KEEP YOUR DIET INLINE"

THATS GOING TO PRODUCE RESULTS.

HoldDaMayo · 12-15-2003, 10:49 PM

well, self motivation plus good drugs = BETTER RESULTS!!

TAKE THAT MISTER OH NATCH U RALL

JK bro... anytime you can accomplish your goals without shelling out extra cash or poluting your body... it's definitely a smart choice.

You are totally correct Mayo

SJ69 · 12-16-2003, 06:45 AM

I find it hard to believe you didn't get anything from this. Try it again, this is the only supplement you don't have to wonder "Is it workin'?" You should feel like you just took some illegal speeders !!
Sometimes it doesn't work for me, but 95% of the time its awesome !! When it doesn't work it's usually bc I am already way to low on energy. If you feed your body with carbs also it should work.

Darkkmind · 12-16-2003, 02:23 PM

Try taking the pills bro. I've never done the drink thing before.
