-Side Effects...10 (meaning I had little if any)

On my first cycle I started at 8.3% bodyfat and dropped to 7%. This time I started at 7.2% and dropped to 6.5%. This was again with no alteration in diet or cardio (my diet is quite strict in general and my cardio is 20 minutes every day).

There were no side effects at 6 total caps per day (2 three X per day), and my appetite was cut down, but not as much as the first cycle. My mental state, drive, concentration and focus were outstanding on this cycle, just like the first.

I did not burn AS MUCH fat this cycle as the first, but no matter what, fat loss will slow when you get into the mid-single digits like I am. I am still quite impressed that in two cycles of Meltdown I dropped a total of almost 2% bodyfat with no alternations in diet or cardio.

I expect that those with higher starting bodyfat %'s will see a greater OVERALL fat loss than I did.

The next time I use Meltdown it will be in my final phases of contest prep to see just how low in bodyfat it can help me get.

I was just sent this feedback by email and figured I would post it here...

"I do not usually take stimulants and fat burners because I don?t like the way they make me feel. Usually they just make me sweat a lot, I can?t sit still, my hands shake, I get nauseous and moody?. I took Meltdown for the first time last Friday just to see what the hype was all about?. I am hooked!!! I have a great constant energy which is nice but the what is better than that is I am very focused and my mood is great?. I can?t really say if I have lost fat yet cause it is too soon but so far everything Meltdown has claimed it does is happening to me!!! I now take 2 Meltdown every morning."

Danny

"Meltdown is by far the “best “ fat burner that I have taken. I feel great taking it, with no side effects that most fat burners have. I have been taking the product for about 2 weeks. My appetite is more in check—eating every few hours, craving way less carbs. I actually feel leaner especially in my abs. I like the fact that you can take it 3xday. I would highly recommend this product to anyone trying to become leaner!"

I've tried it and it does give really good focus with no stim sides for me. Almost comparable to a ssri to a point

seems to really stop impulsive eating by giving you that focus

I'm not expert but I do have 10+ years behind me and i must say I'm skeptical for this one. I check around , nothing special is there to convince me go for it...
Time will show.

That should be safe i took 3 caps x2 times a day but i am sure you could do 2 caps x 3 times a day or 1 cap x 3 times a day i would tell her to start slow to access tolerance i wish her luck

Do you feel any withdrawl effects, like you tend to have with e/c/a stack, when coming off of a cycle?

I loved the results I got from e/c/a stack, my fave was THERMOCORE from METRX, I just hated how I felt when coming off of it; all drained and tired.
I'm looking for a non stim f/b that actually works.

I agree...ECA is a fantastic fat loss combo, but once a cycle was over the crash is a lousy feeling.

I had no crash with Meltdown after a 4 week cycle.
