MYOSTIM: 5 weeks...

Well, I've been on the stuff for 5 weeks now. I have taken the recommended dosage every day and continued my normal training and eating regimen. Here is what has happened so far...

- total weight gain...4 lbs
- BF %...unchanged
- gym strength...no significant change
- side effects...none

I have 3 more weeks to go in my cycle at which point I will report back again. I started off very enthusiastically about this stuff, but now I am not too sure. I am making no conclusions until the 8 week point. That is the amount of time I believe is fair to judge a supplement.

This stuff is gonna be quite expensive right?

Do you think the effects will warrant the price (speaking from your stance on the stuff thus far.)

Well, it is hard to say. I will reserve judgement until I am done with my 8 weeks. If I were to make a quick opinion, I'd keep a wait and see attitude thus far.

From the sounds of it, your giving of a vibe like " this product is not worth a sh!% ." Am I correct !

I dunno, at his level I don't think he gains 4 pounds of muscle every 5 weeks otherwise.

Wait and see I guess how he feels in a couple weeks.

Well, I wouldn't say that! As Mudge said...I would be very happy to gain 4 lbs every 5 weeks at my level. The question is...did the 4 lbs come from the supplement? I will reserve my opinions until after the 8 weeks, but I must say that IF this is a viable supplement, that it would begin to work better with time. The longer you take it the better it would work. I'll update in 3 weeks!

GoPro- are you stacking the myostim with anything such as 1-test or 1-AD? If so, how do you determine where the gains are coming from? If not, then I agree, 4lbs on your frame is definitely a good thing from 1 supplement.

1 last question- you seem to take alot of different stuff when they first hit the market and give us the low-down on the results, which we greatly appreciate. Do you take anything to protect your liver, kidneys, or other organs in case of a situation where the product has not been tested long term? Just wondering. You're like the wise man on the mountain on this site that we're all trying to find out the secrets of life from, haha.

When he tests a supplement, he insists on doing it alone (not stacked) to know what the real effects are. 1Test/1-AD and etc are banned in the organization he competes in.

gotcha, thats cool to hear then. I wonder if Myostim puts 4 lbs on him after 5 weeks, if it would do more or less for someone less experienced.

Vacations- what are those? I hear about them all the time.

Hey guys...no, I did not forget. I have been on vacation as mentioned, and since I got back my days have been packed! I always get this way in the summer when people are competing in shows. They take up ALOT of my time. It's sorta like babysitting, LOL.

Anyway...I will give you the lowdown on my "myostatin experiment" in a day or two. Stay tuned.

By the way...I love the wise man reference...hehehe...I guess thats what I strive to be. I want all of you guys to get as much information as possible, so that you reach your goals as quickly as possible!
