well, for the record Tribulus, or my product, will not cause testicle shrinkage, although it could ultimately interfere with HPTA that is why I say cycle it.

although i am 18, i may consider taking it. as an ex-football player with a nearly non-existent pain threshold, i train like an animal. i know no other way.
shit, as a senior i was about to be on the starting line-up with a herniated disk and a crack in my spine (i did not realize i had this at the time, i went to the doctor eventualli). i sometimes couldn't use my right arm b/c my biceps tendon was swelling to the limits of my shoulder capsule.
but enough "war stories" and onto the point: this is where i worry, is my habitual bodily abuse draining my test levels? i am always borderline overtraining. should i just get a test level done at the doctor's office?

Why exactly does ANABOLIC-MATRIX Rx need to be cycled if it is herbal? Also it can cause acne and increased facial and body hair, but not gyno and testicular atrophy? Would an increase in body and facial hair be permanent if it did occur, and how likely is it to happen? I bought ZMA because I was looking for a natural way to boost testerone levels. I feel as though ZMA does not do anything in this reguard, however, I still think it is a good product because it helps you get a better nights sleep. Well I am just looking for an answer to these questions because I am willing to try this product to see if it can do what it is stated to do.

Cocaine is herbal too. That means i can just keep snorting it forever, right? herbal = safe!

Do you realize that many herbal extracts are just a potent as some Rx drugs?

Anabolic-Matrix Rx can ultmately interfere with HPTA because it stimulates the pituitary gland to produce more LH, LH signals the testes to produce more testosterone. And this is why it does not cause testicular shrinkage, as far as gyno if you take enough it could cause gyno because estrogen levels will raise as T levels raise. However the Chrysin and DIM in Anabolic-Matrix do help control estrogen levels, so gyno is not likely to occur. Also, this product is only going to get your T levels to a high normal, in the 800-1000ng range, whereas a steroid will put T levels way beyond that.

It does not surprise me that ZMA did nothing for you, unless you're deficient in zinc and magnesium it won't, but ZMA does help promote deeper sleep. I found it funny that Instone put ZMA in their Forza-T product, I guess they thought it looked good to put it on the label.

Monolith, was that comment supposed to impress me? It was not like I was doubting that it needed to be cycled. Or did not understand that just because something is herbal does not mean that it is safe or potent. The question was asked obviously in a logical series of questions trying to identify the risks associated with it. Understanding why exactly it needs to be cycled helps me understand the product better.

Prince, thanks for taking the time to answer the questions. It only reinforces what I have seen in previous posts where you take the time to answer questions without being an idiot or a smartass. I am going to give this product a try, I just need to get some extra cash first.

Im am getting ready to start a 4 week cycle of S1+...and do PCT with liquid nolva. Can your product be taken at the same time I am taking S1? will it have a reverse reaction and not allow the S1 to give me the gains im expecting...or should I wait and take it with my PCT of nolva? Im so scared of all the sides that I have read about and just want to do whatever it takes to not get any but still get the gains....

You could do either, my product can definitely help to keep your testes producing rather than shutting down when on the cycle, and/or you could use it for PCT, a great combo would be Anabolic-Matrix along with 6-OXO for PCT.

So taking your product while at the same time doing a cycle of S1+ will not hender me gaining anything from the TEST? but will help keeping my own testes from shutting down completely? I want the gains but dont want the sides. How many pills a day of your stuff to stack with S1?

I already have a bottle of 6-oxo and a bottle of nolva so I will use that for PCT....

that is what I am proposing, yes.

As your testosterone and estrogen levels rise from using the S1+ in a simple explanation the pituitary gland will stop it's production of LH (luteinizing hormone), LH is the hormone that signals the testes to produce more testosterone, once the LH stops the testes begin to shut down.

If you use Anabolic-Matrix Rx it will continue to help stimulate the pituitary gland so LH continues to be produced, thus the testes keep producing testosterone. Also, the Chrysin and DIM will help to control estrogen levels as well as prevent excess testosterone being converted to estrogen and DHT.

Now please know that there have been no real studies of Tribulus in this particular scenario (nor have I tested it), I am drawing conclusions based on theory here. I would recommend you use 6 caps of Anabolic-Matrix per day starting half way thru the cycle, not from the very beginning of the cycle, 3 caps AM and 3 caps PM, and continue it at least one week after the cycle.

yeah, so now I am only $5,200 in debt from making this product, rather than $5,500.
my point being I am a long way from turning a profit, maybe in another year, until than it's nothing but debt. of course I see it as an investment that will ultimately pay off.

Prince, If you tell me that in your opinion, Anabolic Matix-RX will increase my natural testosterone production better than any other natural/herbal supplement on the market, I'll buy at least one bottle today. Is this your opinion?

I am 100% confident in the product, formula, and the quality of ingrediants used, but to say better than all others on the market would not be an honest claim simply because I have not tested every other product on the market.
