Do these actually work or have any evidence of working? Anybody used them before? Feedback anyone?

Beneifts

They benefit the company that sells them...NOT you.

Interval Training

One of the most effective methods of increasing VO2 Max, breathing, is interval training.

Lactate Threshold

Increasing endurance also has to do with increasing your Lactate Threshold, though training.

Bottom Line

I've have heard some good things about them. I guess they're not beneficial from what you're saying.

About 4 hours.

-----------------------------
In my experience, sprints (the interval training mentioned earlier) and tabata routines on the bike are best for improving oxygen exchange, lung capacity, VO2 max... whatever you are looking to improve...they'll help it.

Did you get strength gains from albuterol too? Any heart side effects?

Home Work

Did you do your home work and look up information on it? Always do that as well as getting feed back.

Albuterol Sulfate by Anthony Roberts

Anthony Roberts provides ONE of the best articles on albuterol.

From my personal perspective (meaning I've tried it), I agee with Anthony Roberts article.

Strength Gains

Albubuterol is a stiumlate. Like any stiumlate, when taken prior to a workout, it provides you with more energy.

That means it enables you to train with more intensity.

One of the keys to increasing performance of any kind is intensity.

Thus, albuterol provides strength gains indirectly.

Other Simular Stimulants

Let's look at three other in the same catagory.

Clenbuterol

A sibling of albuterol. I'd pick albuterol over it.

Caffeine

Ingesting 1-4 mg per pound of body weight works for most individuals. Thus, a 200 lb individual could ingest 200 to 800 mg of caffeine.

The Beauty of Caffeine

1) REALLY Cheap...except at Starbucks.

2) Easy to score.

3) You CANNOT get busted for it.

4) Caffeine WORKS!!! It is the foundation of just about every energy and/or weight loss supplement/beverage on the market.

That is a HUGE clue!

Ephdrine

I found it produced virtually the same effect as Albuterol. Ephedrine can still be purchased over the couner on line.

Stacking

One of the best stacks every is Ephedrine/Caffeine.

Synergistic Effects of Ephedrine/Caffeine Effect

Synergistis means the sum is greater than it parts.

Thus, combining Ephdrine with Caffeine is the mathimatical equivalent of:

2 + 2 = 5

Combo

The right mix is 20-25 mg of Ephedrine with 200 mg of Caffeine. More is NOT better!

Over The Counter Ephedrine

Ephedrine is a legal over the counter medication that can be purchased in limited quanities.

Primatine or Bronkaide

Google them and shop your best deal.

Heart Side Effects

Unless you have some cardiovascular problems, there are no long term problems.

Stimulates Heart Rate

All of these are stimulants will increase your heart rate, metabolism, breathing, etc.

Medication

All of these can cause problems when used incorrectly.

"Stupid is as stupid does." Forrest Gump

Stupidity is NOT a crime but can be a death sentence at times.

"Chance favors the pepared mind." Pasteur

DO your homework!

I use it for my breathing. I give it at work daily also. It does have some stimulant effect but it's not a good one. Unless you call feeling shaky, jittery, nervous a good effect. Generally it's given in 2.5mg doses by inhalation with nebulized oxygen and can be given up to 3 times up to a maximum dosage of 7.5mg. The dosage is not really weight dependent.

I don't use the inhaler or the nebulizer, I take the tabs. They are 4mg and are SUPPOSED to be taken twice a day, not three. If one is using them for appetite suppression, then yes they can be used three times.

It's used because it's a bronchodilator, to open up the airways in the lungs allowing someone to breathe better.

However, it's also a vasoconstrictor and CNS stimulant. So some use it for enhanced fat burning. It may enhance fat burning a little but honestly it's not enough to be worth feeling bad from using it. It does not enhance strength at all. Since it constricts the blood vessels - all of them - including the coronary vessels that supply blood to the heart muscle, it's dangerous to use if you have any pre-existing heart disease.
