Title: How many like/ take L Glutamine?
Post by: HERACLES on August 31, 2007, 05:52:27 AM
Ive been taking it 3 x a day, @ 4.5g each time. (teaspoon)...Only other supps are designer, and multivitamin...

I was thinking about trying a prohormone.. some folks at the gym have been taking some and im pretty impressed on their strength gains... but who knows..

well prohormones and l glutamine are totally different.

imo l glutamine is great for pre-cardio in the morning. as long as its a pure glutamine supplement your taking. there should be zero calories in it; so you will still be feeding directly into fat stores for your cardio; but the amino acids will help you up the intensity and go for a little bit longer without burning up muscle.



as fara s prohormones go; my own knowledge oly goes as far as "tren extreme". it is an awesoem product. i feel like superman eeveryday in the gym when i am taking it. and you will put on quite a bit of size. i get really puffy and bloated when i take it though.   ...today is my last day running tren extreme, actually. bottle just ran out.

They're not even baby gear. Quite a few have the same risks as other oral steroids. Either go with the real thing or don't do it at all.

tren extreme is a prohormone and it is legal...thus you can take prohormones legally. for now.

I can also legally drink a case of Jack Daniels but that doesn't mean it's a good idea.  ;D

prohormones as opposed to gear.

drinking yourself into a coma as opposed to staying sober.


you make the point that not all legal actions are good actions; but you do not have any premis to relate that point with taking prohormones; nor could you.


work on your skills in argumentation.

Glutamine gives a great pump, it works better for me than creatine, its also great along with BCAA to reduce delayed onset muscle soreness.

I tried Glutamine a few times at different dosages and different ways of taking it and it never really did anything for me.
Other people swear by it..................

i mix up 10-15 grams in a cup with water -the flavored gluatamine powder with NAC and drink it 1 hour prior to lifting-it gives a tremendous pump.

I have to agree with you as I found the same.  Been lifting 5 months now without sups and had some very good muscle gains and fat loss.  I'm now going to protein as my meals will be a little iregular with my new business schedule.  Never found glutamine to make much of a difference.

Same here.  Tried a couple different brands and never noticed anything special from it.  Less so than even the difference I feel when I'm taking vs. not taking a multi.  And I was even taking about 15-20 grams a day for a while.
