4AD powder
BODYBUILDING SUPPLEMENTS High Quality Supplements For Bodybuilders and Athletes. www.ironmaglabs.com for me I have to use a 4AD powder and I am going to buy some in bulk from 1fast400, if I buy it how many grams will I need to run the cycle with the M1-t, how may mg come in a gram? is it 10mg per gram? I'm thinking of stacking 10mg week one and see if I need 15mg or not and using around 1000-1200mg a day orally as recomended by the 1fast400 site. I guess I need some advice as well and some measuring calculations. thanks guys.

Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

Oral bioavailability of 4-AD is very poor - for this reason I'd recommend a transdermal. Buy 4Derm or mix up your own with bulk powder and carrier matrix like T-gel.

I can't, it caused problems with my girlfriend in the same bed, as well as it's hard on my skin, like a kind of irritation that was unpleasent. Just to be on the safe side I don't want to use the 4derm. so by the sounds of it I will need to take in 1gram of 4AD per day, will it be best to spread it out and go with 500mg 2x a day?

I use a 4-AD transdermal and administer it twice a day, which given the sustained release effect of dermal absorbion is fine. For oral use I would go with the sticky advice:-

Will I have to start the 4AD one week before I start the M1-T because it takes a week or so to kick in and get the full effects of it? I have asked but I never get a straight answer I get a real mixed stack of answers. will it be best to start with say 500mg a day for a week then raise it to 1200mg a day for the 2 weeks that I cycle the M1-T? or do 1000-1200mg ED for the week before and during the 2 week cycle?

Given the poor oral bioavailability and the fact that about 15% of 4-AD converts to Test* I'd start out the gate at 1200mg. I recently saw some lab results of a guy on M1T/4-AD, this is what he posted:- Quote:

Since you don't know how your body responds to 4-AD, you could start with smaller doses and work your way up quickly. The more spread out the doses, the better (even the middle of the night when you piss). You don't have to start the 4-AD a week early, but you can. I started the 4-AD and M1T at the same time. What takes time to kick in with 4-AD are the gains. The main reason you take it with M1T is to counter the sides (not for gains) since your natural test production almost stops in 3 days. You could start the 4-AD a week early and work up to 1-1.5 g/day, then run your M1T for a few weeks with it if you want. I would highly recommend continuing the 4-AD two weeks after you stop the M1T, and then PCT would begin immediately. Here is an example:
Week 1: 600-1200 mg/day of 4-AD Week 2-4: 1200 mg/day 4-AD & M1T Week 5-6: 1500 mg/day 4-AD Week 7-10: PCT If you stop running them both at the same time you will run into another problem with sleeping in the same bed with your girlfriend. Only it will be during the first two weeks of PCT. |

it is hard to tell since mg's is a weight. Your best bet is to get a scale and measure out correctly.

If you can't get a scale, 4.5 grams per tsp is a reasonable approximation, IMO. You should get a digital scale and make a transdermal batch if possible.

If you are in highschool or college, a digital scale is fairly easy to come upon. One of my Chem TA's lets me borrow one for the afternoon whenever I need it. Sucka costs like $600 so its accurate as hell.

ok I only asked about tsb size because thats what bulkntriton reffered to when it mentioned dosing. The only thing I can get my hands on right now is a triple beam because their is no way I am buying a D-scale for 30 bucks worth of 4-ad. I found a scoop that is supposedly 5mg so I guess that will have to do for now. Thanks for the advice though

If your takin' the 4 ad orally I'd take the whole daily dose in one shot. The reason being the enzymes that break it down. An enzyme has an active site and it can only hold one molecule at a time, if dump in twice as many molecules than there are enzymes then only half your dose gets killed. Also, there's some evidence that grapefruit juice helps deactivate some of these enzymes as well. See Vioppes sp? post and do a Yahoo search on it.

You can get a scale that will accurately measure the amounts you want for $20 on ebay.
