    Clen vs ECA

    Is there any research out there that comparing the raise in metabolic rate brought on by these two compounds? Anecdotal evidence suggests clen is clearly stronger but some people say they get better results from ECA. I personally get great results from ECA with no sides but have contemplated trying clen, it sounds nasty though.

    No links to provide, but If I HAD to choose, I'd do anything on earth other than Clenbuterol .

    I have done both,
    in my opinion ECA vs Clen would be like comparing a cycle of prop vs a cycle of creatine

    Does the ECA stack really work that well?

    I don't have any issues with clen , or eca....really you need to try both to see what you like better.

    Personally, I'd rather just up the AAS dosage(tren ) and keep diet on track if I'm looking to push the diet faster(not advised for everyone, or even most) as on AAS for life here... But AAS/clen/eca, it's all not needed, if diet/training is on point. So make sure before you do anything diet/training is on track. ECA isn't magic, or clen....or even tren. Just icing on the cake.

    Both out dated. Much better and safer ways to aid in cutting.

    Clen is pretty taxing IMO on most people. I've ran it with no ill sides multi times now. Some cycles and one 8wk straight run. Does it work sure. Some people cramp, shakes, ect. Only thing I do really like about clen is it opening my breathing up a lot. I have nose issues...

    EcA works, but I'm not a fan of running aspirin like that. "I actually run 600mgs of caffeine daily now"

    Gw501516 works better then both clen/ecA and with much better side results along with it. Endurance increased.

    Austinites fat burning stack is so far to all my testing been best without gear, hgh, ect. It's cheap, no sides, and can run it for a long time. Burns fat. Stops sugar cravings. All around goodness.

    Just don't see why those things are necessary if you're doing everything else right ( diet, cardio, etc. ).

    Diet and cardio can always be adjusted if that happens. There is no reason for people to be on things like that if they aren't competing, period.

    That's your point of view. Nothing more.


    If supplements, stacks have no bad side effects I see no reason not to use things.

    So you don't think Clen or ECA has any bad side effects?

    ...The risk vs the reward is just not worth it.

    Clen yes.



    EcA doesn't do anything bad, just increases work output.



    That's like saying lifting and running are bad for you just because the risk of getting hurt is to high.

    Lol, no it's not. Odds are if you are an individual without serious health problems, lifting and running won't kill you. The same can't be said for Clen and ECA. Both lead to a significant increase heart rate which makes them both dangerous, especially for people training.

    Lol... This couldn't be more wrong... On clen my resting heart heart increases 10-15bpm and that's using 120mcgs a day. Hardly something for the average person to be worried with. Depending on my training for that day I've had my heart rate up as high as 210-215bpm. Granted my resting heart rate year is around 53bpm. I speak from documented cases with myself. I've used clen, ecA, gw, ect, ect in different training camps for local,and international Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and mma. So ending, you couldn't be more wrong.


    I studied this using a heart rate monitor, body tempature reading and blood work.

    Clen -

    Excerpt:
    "Initial consumption of clenbuterol caused a
    rapid doubling of heart rate."

    Ephedrine ( which is my main issue with ECA ) -
    http://www.vanderbilt.edu/AnS/psycho...rine-final.htm
    Excerpt:
    "Ephedrine has the unique ability to stimulate thermogenesis in the human body. It works by, essentially, speeding up the heart rate, thus inducing a faster metabolism."
    "Heart rate and blood pressure can be increased causing dehydration and decreased circulation. Complications from these adverse effects may result in cerebral hemorrhage, (stroke), and cardiac arrhythimies, (heart irregularities), that can result in cardiac arrest and death."

    No problem with that. Just like there isn't a problem with somebody trying to offer an alternative saying that their goals can be accomplished without those drugs.

    Lol.... Did you even bother to read what you posted? So you originally said not to use drugs to aid in fat loss. Now your posting studies that say you need to use drugs for fat loss. Which is it?



    Also most of most you just posted came from 1993 and 1996.

    Did YOU even read the article? Where does it say that you *NEED* to use anything for weight loss?

    Excerpts from the conclusion of the ECA article:
    "Research has also shown that it is virtually impossible to achieve weight loss without a healthy diet and regular exercise."
    "Ephedrine does have great potential, yet is it worth the risks?"

    ...and my answer to their question would be no.

    Therefore, it seems that the optimal solution to lose weight must involve the proper combination of diet, exercise, and drug interaction. Ephedrine may hold the key to fill in for the drug portion of the equation.

    The article summary:
    In short, ephedrine has shown promising signs in terms of its generally positive effects on the human body, especially on the reduction of fat and body weight. Studies have shown that ephedrine is most effective as a weight loss stimulant when used in conjunction with other drugs, such as caffeine. Research has also shown that is is virtually impossible to achieve weight loss without a healthy diet and regular exercise. Therefore, it seems that the optimal solution to lose weight must involve the proper combination of diet, exercise, and drug interaction. Ephedrine may hold the key to fill in for the drug portion of the equation, but as with practically all drugs, there are risks involved. Whether ephedrine is too dangerous to be sold in over the counter products, is still under debate. Ephedrine does have great potential, yet is it worth the risks?
    You just cited a study that directly counters your argument.

    As for the dangers of ECA and Clen , you picked the worst case scenario side effects. Here's a quote from you a couple days ago:
    Anavar only cycles are fine. I've done it many times and never felt "supressed", "shutdown" or had any real side effects of note.
    Sounds like the man enjoys his anavar , so what are the worst case scenario sides for that drug?
    loss of appetite, depression, dark urine, muscle cramps, nausea, vomiting, itching, difficulty in breathing, acne, changes in libido, menstrual irregularities, and mood changes.
    My point? Everything in moderation. Now quit hassling T-dogg

    Screw it..just use Clen /ECA and stack in some DNP . Go eat ice cream everyday and lose weight and look great. *disclaimer that I'm not serious since you'd probably die*
