Need help with Clen cramps.

[PistolPete33]

I'm on day 4 of my 2 week Clen "on" cycle and the cramps are unbearable. I've done all the searches and I've used Clen before but it's never been this bad. I'm taking 4 grams of Taurine every day, 300mg of Potassium, also taking calcium as well and the cramps are insane. I'm drinking a gallon of water and I'm going to up this to 1.5-2 gallons today and see if this helps. I took the Potassium on an empty stomach before bed last night but not sure if it's going to help.

Is there anything else I can do to stop these cramps? I don't want to stop taking the Clen but at this rate I might not have an option.

Take 3g to 5g of taurine a day. It'll help.

Wow clen cramps can be insane. Sounds like u are doing the right things but hopefully upping ur water intake will help. I remember the first two cramps i ever got on clen. One was in the back of my head as i was washing my hair it felt like my brain was cramping lol and the other one was i was stretching my calve while laying in bed. Holy crap did that one kill! Good luck hope it works out for u

The Taurine will be your saviour and is a must. Cramps on day 4? My guess is you didn't ramp up and you are already taking a high dose at such an early stage. How much are you taking right now?

[PistolPete33]

I started at 40 on day 1, 60 on day 2, and 80the on day 3 and 4. Stimulants dont have a strong impact on me which is why i started here. At 80 i barely feel anything with regards to shakes etc. Im going to up the Taurine to 5u grams and see. Ive been drinking a ton of water today and so far no cramps.

Keep the water at 2 gallons. I only experienced cramps when I didn't drink enough water or supplement Taurine with it. Not to mention I did 120mcg on my second day (I was a moron.)

If you got it from ar-r then make sure you're reading the dosages correctly, there's a lot of people who get that mixed up and take to much from the start, it can be tricky to read sometimes, especially on your first run.

Taurine is definitely the answer, i started and on day 3 or 4 very low dose i started getting the cramps, taurine was on the way so i started a few days after, 2mg pre and 2mg post, same day they went away and never came back. Everything else helps but it is definitely the taurine. The search is your friend!!!!!

So far today things have been A-OK. No cramps or VERY mild so far so that's a huge plus. I've had over 1.5 gallons of water today and so far 4 grams of Taurine. Do you guys take the Taurine all at once or do you spread it out over the course of the day? I've been spreading it out but I'm not sure if it's better this way or to simply take it at once?

Magnesium also helps. Make sure it's practitioner brand. It will also help you sleep.

in addition to what the above posters have said, I'd highly recommend increasing pottasium. Supplement if necessary. Also, depending on where the cramp is....a heating pad works really well. Lastly, they have creams made to help with cramps. Keep it on hand in case none of the above help. I've stayed up many nights after leg day because of clen and the cream really is a saviour for me.

I made it thru the day yesterday with very mild cramping. I upped my Taurine to 5 grams and took 4 grams of Potassium before bed and drank almost 2 gallons of water. Rasc170- what creams are you referring to and where do you get them?
