Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 226 | Most people have trouble losing their fat stores because they cannot control their food intake while on a cutting or maintenance phase. Even with proper diet and cardio, many individuals will eventually experience problems losing fat at an "optimal" rate. Now we have the answer: Red Acid™. Red Acid™ is the most advanced fat incineration matrix ever to reach the market. Unlike other fat loss products, Red Acid™ helps you to achieve fat loss via several different pathways. It combines a synergistic blend of naturally occurring fatty acids and fatty acid analogues that serve as endogenous agonists of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha) and help to modulate ghrelin levels, producing a hunger satisfaction that effectively lowers your food intake. The fatty acid blend also helps stimulate glycerol and fatty acid release from adipocytes throughout the body. Herbal appetite suppressants that work via the CNS rather than the digestive tract, like our fatty acid blend does, were included to address the same appetite problem, but via a different pathway, the brain. Natural energizers and thermogenics have also been added to increase activity in the gym, which leads to calorie use. Enhanced focus is also attained by the addition of some of the most thoroughly researched nootropics. The REDuction Complex™ (Fatty Acids and PPAR-alpha): Red Acid™ contains a fatty acid matrix that includes Oleoylethanolamide (OEA) and Tetradecylthioacetic Acid. OEA is a fatty acid that is a naturally occurring amide of ethanolamine and oleic acid. It starts working once it reaches the duodenum (the upper 1/3 of the small intestine) and is normally synthesized there by your body. It serves as an endogenous agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha) and regulates lipid metabolism. OEA also activates vagal sensory afferent neurons and excites nodose ganglion neurons, which leads to decreased appetite and satiety. This naturally occurring fatty acid therefore inhibits food cravings and helps release fat from its stores in the body. Tetradecylthioacetic Acid is a special fatty acid that can help to diminish total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides and LDL/HDL cholesterol when used in combination with a good diet and also exhibits anti-inflammatory effects. Tetradecylthioacetic Acid, like OEA, is an agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha). Tetradecylthioacetic Acid has been shown to increase catabolism of fatty acids and exhibit antiadiposity effects. Tetradecylthioacetic Acid will help to effectively remove fat from its body stores and without forcing your body to effectively use it for energy. This allows you to “burn” fat at a much higher level than by simply exercising. The Transport Mechanism: A few hundred milligrams of flaxseed oil powder has also been added to aid in the transport of these two fatty acids into the duodenum and other necessary areas, so that they can be utilized completely. The Red Sweat Complex™ (Thermogenics, Nootropics and Appetite Suppression via CNS): We have combined the most effective and potent thermonutrients to increase the utilization of energy in your body. The most potent extracts of energizing ingredients were included to make your trip to the gym one you would not forget. If you do not work out with intensity you cannot realize your true potential for fat loss and lean body mass accumulation. Intensity in the gym cannot be accomplished without focus either; you need the mental acuity that only our top of the line nootropics can provide in order to excel at your fat loss goals. The Red Slob Complex™ (Herbal Appetite Suppression, Thyroid Support and Digestion Aids): Lastly, we added a proprietary blend of potent herbal appetite suppressants, digestion aids, thyroid support and stomach soothing compounds that work in synergy to target one of the hardest parts of fat loss: eating right. This blend effectively targets the central nervous system (CNS) to control your desire for food (without nausea or discomfort) and when combined with the anorexic effects of OEA you are in for a powerful combination. If you want to decrease your appetite, get rid of unwanted body fat, ramp up your endurance and enhance your focus in the gym, then Red Acid™ is the right choice for you. Red Acid™ makes an excellent stack when used in conjunction with Blue Rhino™. Together they will help you lose body fat and maintain your testosterone levels during a cutting (fat loss) phase.

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 226 | Blue Rhino™ is the most potent natural testosterone booster available. Most testosterone boosters claim to raise your “testosterone”; testosterone is a broad term. Raising total testosterone is not very helpful by itself, because the body needs testosterone in a “free” or “unbound” state to use it effectively for lean muscle mass and strength gains. The problem is that most men have plenty of total testosterone, but their free state testosterone is on the low side. SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) keeps your body’s testosterone locked up for potential use at a later time, but most men do not release enough of this bound testosterone naturally to make great gains. That is why we designed Blue Rhino™ to help your body produce more total testosterone while simultaneously helping to unbind your existing testosterone by limiting SHBG in your system. The manner in which this formula operates hampers many of the side effects that were common with synthetic and older natural based testosterone enhancer use. So if you are looking to increase your free testosterone level and your strength in the gym, Blue Rhino™ is the way to go. This formula’s potent extracts act in unison to help ignite your body’s own mechanism for turning bound (useless) testosterone into free (useful) testosterone that is needed for muscle growth and pure brut power. This extra power translates into greater lifts and muscle growth. Now lets look at the formula in a little more detail to see where Blue Rhino™ gets its strength from: Tribulus Terrestris: in our formula is standardized for 80% steroidal saponins as well as 30% protodioscin. It has been shown to increase luteinizing hormone (LH) in the body. When LH is increased it signals the sites in the body to increase their production of the testosterone. This new testosterone contributes to your body’s total testosterone, which can now be acted upon by the two other main ingredients, Avena Sativa and LongJack, to unbind this locked or potential that can lead to size and strength gains. Avena Sativa: in our formula is standardized for 15% steroidal avenacosides A & B, the highest grade available on the market today. It helps to break bound testosterone from SHBG releasing it into circulation for use in the body. Eurycoma Longifolia (LongJack): in our formula is standardized for 40% Glyco Saponins and 30% Polysacharides. Our potent extract has been shown to help increase IGF1 levels and modulate Cortisol levels. Most importantly, this extract will help increase total testosterone and inhibit SHBG, so that more free testosterone remains in the blood without increasing aromatization into estrogen. Studies on this particular extract have shown that the average male serum testosterone level rose by 100% after just 2 weeks of use. Yohimbe: in our formula is standardized for 6.5mg of yohimbine, the active ingredient in yohimbe. Yohimbine works in various ways including as a vasodilator, which widens the blood vessels and allows more nutrients and testosterone to reach their intended targets faster and more efficiently. Yohimbine also increases sex drive and helps energize by way of a stimulatory effect. Natural Caffeine: in our formula comes from all natural herbal sources and is an excellent stimulant that will get you pumped up for your workout. It works by way of stimulating the central nervous system and has an energizing effect that will help you push the weights a bit harder, which will lead to greater mass gains. Warning: Do not take tyramine containing foods or any prescription drugs with this product before contacting your physician. If you have hypertension, are obese or have a history of heart related ailments or any other disease please do not use this product before contacting your physician. (Warning: Those under 18 years of age should not take this product) Directions: Take 2 capsules 30-45 minutes prior to your workout. If you weigh in excess of 225 pounds increase your dosage to 3 capsules. Take with at least 2 glasses of liquid. REFERENCES 1. Ang HH, Lee KL, Kiyoshi M.

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 226 | AM Dosage: 4 capsules of Red Acid / 2 capsules of Blue Rhino - 30 minutes prior to w/o - 9:30 AM Today’s Workout: 10:00 AM
PM Dosage: 4 capsules of Red Acid - 30 minutes prior to cardio - 4:00 PM Cardio: 45 minutes of rowing - 4:30 PM - 5:15 PM Thoughts: For this test I will be taking 8 caps of Red Acid daily, divided into two doses. 1 dose prior to weight training and the 2nd prior to cardio. I'm going to stick to just the 2 cap daily dosage of Blue Rhino to make the most out of the one bottle I was sent. I had plenty of sleep last night but for some reason I was really low on energy for the first couple of hours at work today. I was glad today was going to be the first day of this test since I really needed something to get me moving. I took my first dosage of Red Acid and Blue Rhino at 9:30AM which was 30 minutes prior to my morning workout. I also took the 2 caps of Blue Rhino at the same time. The two products stacked together provided a nice boost of energy and good sense of well being. I noticed my heart rate increase throughout the session, nothing overbearing but definitely noticable. I also noticed that perspiration was increased more than usual. It wasn't at the point where I was dripping from sweat but it was a steady sweat none the less. The energy from the first dose lasted about 2.5 - 3 hours. I did notice a bit of crash after that but it wasn't an extreme crash. I took my second dose at 4:00 PM and did cardio about 30 minutes later. The perspiration wasn't as strong as it was after the morning dose of Red Acid w/ Blue Rhino but the boost of energy kicked in about 7 minutes in and I breezed through cardio and was done before I knew it. I didn't notice my heart rate go up like it did earlier but it was a good cardio session regardless. So far so good for the first day.

PM Dosage: 4 capsules of Red Acid @ 6:00 PM Cardio: None today Thoughts: Sorry for posting this a day late .. I'm really busy this week and won't be on the boards that much the next couple of days. I'll continue to update my log when I get a chance to. Yesterday's workout was similar to day one's. Heart rate and perspiration was up again. Perspiration actually was increased a bit more the 2nd day in. I had no time to get cardio in last night since I had an evening meeting to go to, but I did take my last dose of Red Acid prior to and my energy level stayed up and I was focused and alert during the meeting.

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 226 | My apologies to Paul & Tank. I've come down with a cough and cold the last few days and haven't hit the gym or done any cardio as a result. Once I start feeling better I'll get back into the swing of things.
