Weight Loss
« on: August 10, 2008, 04:15:04 PM »
I was curious whets the best stuff out for weight loss...? I understand exercise, nutrition, and being well rested is the most important part... however I want to know if I could take something to speed it up... I’m in Iraq right now, I’ve been doing cardio everyday for the last month and I’ve dropped 275-250... I am looking to get down to 210, but have come to a complete stop at 250. I can’t seem to get it any lower. Any suggestions?

T3 is a thyroid stimulant, increases your metabolism

The ECA stack idea has been working really well for me.

And being in Iraq, don't you sweat it off anyways?

Oh yeah, ECA will work very well if your diet is in check. I'm a big fan of ECA.

ha, yeah Iraq is hot alright... However I work in the AC... Ive got it good I know... The only time I really sweat is when the power goes out or im working out... The heat here is dry heat, imagine opening an oven... that initial blast of hot air... is how it feels here all day...

As for ECA... im pretty sure the Army banned us using both Ephedrine and or Caffeine based supplements... so id have to take them all on the DL... but ill give it a shot i suppose... I had taken clenbuterol before... It seemed to really get my body pumped... Has anyone had good progress on Clen?

Agreed. I tried Clen before, and all it did was make my chest hurt.  ECA is amazing, but you have to take a break every so often they say. Made me feel like shit when I came off too...

When did the military ban Caffeine? It was good to go when I was there... Can you drink coffee?  Wtf???

Last time I heard the Air Force was still giving speed to their pilots, in fact there was a fairly recent incident with some pilots who were on speed lighting up a convoy of friendlies which went under investigation.

Some retards were taking steroids and did not do any research and landed some liver poisoning... which sparked a mass hysteria... the guys said it was they're supplements and not steroids... so they pretty much banned all that shit out here... people are having to cut up the beds to stash legal stuff .. its sad really, alot of people are dumping out cheap amino powder and putting there cell tech or no explode in it. Last time I was in Iraq they only banned ephedrine and creatine... but they are outa control this year....

What the hell is wrong with these people, can anything be possibly more dangerous then war. You guys bust your butt and practicly go through hell and back and they think you can't handle creatine or caffeine, anyway welcome, although I am not a fan of the situation in Iraq, however I have a lot respect for you guys

Thanks, most of us here don't agree with it either... but it is what it is i guess... But to make the best of the situation I am busting my ass to get in shape while I'm away. and here i am ha ha. There is fairly nice gyms where I'm at, so that alone makes the goals easier to obtain.  I have 3 more months before I go back for my mid tour vacation. and I really want to come completely different. I would go as far as taking steroids, but Ive read though a lot of the posts on here and they all talk about building a base first. So I figure if I can get down a solid routine here and get into gear maybe when I come back from Vacation ill look into that. As for now getting down a good work out routine and diet is my first order of business.

Yeah we accidentally reached out and touched some Canadians. Huge mistake, but I dont think it was related to the speed. I think that is just the excuse given, because it is still given to military pilots going into combat. I believe we are the only country that practices this...

Not to veer too far off topic, but Shadowpilot, have you checked out the mini series on HBO: Generation Kill?  It's about one of the first Recon Marine platoons to enter Iraq (it's a drama not a documentary or anything)?  Just wondering if it's at all accurate as to what was going on over there or not.

Welcome to the board. One things for sure you'll be nice and lean when you come home. I wouldnt even touch ephedrine over there. You need to keep a clear head. I know for me when I'm on ephedrine my mind kind of races sometimes. You dont need that when haj is closing in. Semper Fi bro.

I havent got a chance to see that yet... I will have to check it out. But there is a HUGE difference from the first troops to come here to how it is now. Hell I was here 2 years ago shitting in boxes and burning it. then sleeping in tents during the day that cook at 130... This time we have flushing toilets and 2 man rooms with AC and real beds...

I have a pretty easy job out here this time. I cant get into to much detail but I think i can deal with some ephedrine... just outa curiosity does it give u charlie horses like Clen does? I know when I was taking Clen I would yawn and the muscle in my jaw would lock up... oh and i got LOTS of calf ones... Someone said I needed more potassium... i dunno how true that is...

As for me, im willing to go pretty extreme to get in shape. I came out here at 275 and decided July First that I was going to get in shape ... and im already 245-250 depending on the day... I had been doing cardio for an hour everyday... and once i hit 250 i have been stuck... which is why i was asking about ECA or Clen and all that stuff...

How do you feel about Charms? (the candy)

As far as ephedrine goes, you shouldn't get any cramping on it.  With Clen, you can supplement about 4-8 grams of Taurine a day to get rid of the cramping.
