eca stack effectiveness

**jr82** · 11-08-2004, 08:22 PM

i was wandering the effectiveness of an eca stack and for you guys to review my plans for the stack.
25 mg ephedrine 3x day
100 mg caffine 3x day
325 mg aspirin 3x day
on three days off two

**anaBROLIC** · 11-08-2004, 08:34 PM

stack is supposed to be good but i dont know bout 3x a day

**6plates** · 11-08-2004, 08:50 PM

**** bro, thats almost a gram of aspirin a day, you dont need nowhere near that amount to get the desired effects of aspirin. take 1 aspirin tab a day will be enough.

**jr82** · 11-08-2004, 08:59 PM

it is under the daily amount that the bottle said, but that is why i was asking before i started.

**Red Monster** · 11-08-2004, 10:21 PM

effects your likely to see at that dose:

fat burning
raised temp
fight or flight mode
raised blood pressure
possible heart stress

realize that ephedra is NO JOKE before you use it

**netsirk** · 11-09-2004, 02:17 PM

im on an ECA stack right now...

i take..
25 mg ephedrine 1x day
200 mg capheine 1 x day
BUT i take 325 mg aspirin break it in half and only take half of one 1x a day

**netsirk** · 11-09-2004, 02:35 PM

question.....

do you have to take it at the same time everyday?

or it doesnt really matter?

**Red Monster** · 11-09-2004, 05:18 PM

all hormones, of which ephedra is one, work based on blood levels. Scheduling is a way to maintain a steady blood level... so yeah best to take at the same time or spread out accross the day and take at the same time. By the nature of ephedra it would seem to make sense to take early in the day rather than later.

**LeanMeOut** · 11-09-2004, 05:40 PM

ECA can be used three times a day if properly spaced out...... but your asprin intake is way too high. Either take 1 325mg tablet period everyday, or buy the 81mg tabs and use 1 with each stack.

**netsirk** · 11-10-2004, 04:53 PM

ok, but like i said...

is it ok for me to break the 325 mg aspirin in half and take that once a day...
or stick with the whole pill for the whole day...

Either way is fine

**Property of Steroid.com** · 11-10-2004, 04:58 PM

The proper dose for ephedrine and caffeine is a 1:10 ratio, for maximum fat burning.
(i.e. 20mgs of ephedrine and 200mgs of caffeine)

And yeah, netsirk, you'll be ok with your aspirin dose...you may wanna just take a childrens aspirin though.

**netsirk** · 11-11-2004, 01:53 PM

is that supposed to be funny?

**Property of Steroid.com** · 11-11-2004, 01:58 PM

No. I'm not very funny.

He wasn't being sarcastic, if you want to split the asprin dose evenly then use childrens asprin (which I believe is like 81mg each or something like that)

**netsirk** · 11-11-2004, 08:24 PM

ok thanks...

is it ok to take it 3 weeks on and 1 week off?

**mitch428cj** · 11-11-2004, 08:32 PM

seems like a bit long to me , longer you use it more likely to have a crash when you come off i usually do do it 1 week on 1 off but i cycle it with clen

**netsirk** · 11-11-2004, 08:33 PM

no im not taking any clen ...

just that i dont want it to interfere with my menstrual cycle, not that you would know anything about that...haha

**mitch428cj** · 11-11-2004, 08:36 PM

then id just try 2 weeks on 2 weeks off seems like it would be easier on you than 3/1 , no i dont know anything about that

**mitch428cj** · 11-11-2004, 08:41 PM

twice a day seems best for me once when i wakeup before morning cardio and second after lunch , max you could do is like 3 times a day like 6am , 12pm, 6pm, if your able to fall asleep after the 3rd dose if not stick to 2x a day

**netsirk** · 11-11-2004, 10:44 PM

6 am? WOW!

im not up sometimes until 10 or 11....

i've only been taking 1x a day...

still a little scared to be taking it 2x a day...

the racing of the heart and pressure on the chest is a little ruff

**netsirk** · 11-11-2004, 10:46 PM

another question...

is it bad to smoke weed while taking an ECA stack?

**bor** · 11-12-2004, 11:07 AM

Well no, but its kinda pointless, because the ECA will make you energetic and supress your apettite and the weed will make you lethargic and hunrgy. ALso, weed is actually a stimulant, and its bad to mix 2 of those, especially for your heart.

**netsirk** · 11-12-2004, 11:08 AM

what about on my off week?

NO.1 Ephedra is not a hormone. Its an alkaloid derived from certain species of plant largely ma huang. Do a search on the web bro.
No.2 The stack included ephedrine not ephedra. Ephedrine is a synthethic form of the drug and is manufactured in a lab as apposed to nature.

Take earlierly rather than later of course purely so it does not disrupt your sleep.
