I officially started this regimen and austinite's fat loss regimen today. I have so many bottles of supplements that I look like a damn drug store, lol. Just to give other members an idea, the total list (including the fat loss regimen) cost me about $600 for about two months worth of supplements (some will last a lot longer). While I'm sure it's possible to bring that down a little, I did a pretty comprehensive search to find the best deals while not sacrificing quality. That price includes tax, shipping, and injectable methylcobalamin. Anyway, you can be sure I will update my progress austinite. I'm pretty excited to see how it all works out.

Well I already have a few questions. For the tadalafil, I am using AR-R's product with the oral syringe. I am taking 0.1 mL pre-workout and 0.1 mL 12 hours later. When I suck it up, am I supposed to go until the tip of the plunger is at 0.1 mL or until the liquid is at 0.1 mL? It just doesn't seem like there is much if I go until the plunger goes to 0.1 mL.
The same question is applicable for the B12 injections. I injected 1 mL based on the plunger, not the actual liquid vitamin. Is that correct?
Thanks in advance.

I will read this over and over again. Thank you for the info and personal exp. to go with it.
This is really great post. I will keep following your post. Keep it up.
Austin, I've read and read your post. Thanks again for all of the info. The one question I have is is there anything I can take you help with sleep other than Tylenol pm, prescription meds or melatonin. I see that you said magnesium can help and if that the only one at why dose would I need to take it if that the only one.
Also, the b12 methyl, is the liquid form just as good or not as comparable. I am really having a hard time eating what I need to. I am REALLY looking into the b12.
Magnesium. Start at 400mg. Double it if it doesnt work. Get magnesium orotate is you can. If not, Magnesium Citrate.
Find out why you can't sleep. Don't depend on drugs for too long.
Liquid methyl drops are just fine. Not comparable to injectable though but they work.

Thank one, last question. I've read the rules, not sure if it applies here. Can reputable brands and or stores be mentioned. Or at the very least places to stay away from. I'm going to start shopping today.

Hi austinite ..
I want to ask u about vitamin E.
Most of the dosages I see comes between 400-800 iu.
What's up with those crazy dosages? Looks like an over kill..
I noticed u taking 90 iu and seems I can't find anything near to ur dosage.
I'm supplementing with Fish oil by carlson as recommended and it has 10 iu within.. Is that enough? Can we take another 800 iu once a week?
Sorry if the question had been answered.. But it's a 28-page thread![]()
90 IU mixed tocopherols is what you want to look for. If you can't find it, look for at least Gamma tocopherols as it is superior to Alpha.
The idea of taking only 10 IU with carlson fish oils is that is is enough to protect the fatty acids. When you ingest fish oils without Vitamin E, most of it goes to waste because of the harsh environment it goes through. Vitamin E protects the essential acids and allows your body to utilize more of them.
These protective quantities are not enough to aid in protecting you from free radicals like nitrogen dioxide or peroxynitrite for example. So you would need to take higher doses for protection against this. With respect to heart health, the 10 iu in Carlson fish oil is enough because it allows you to benefit from the Fatty acids, which is a staple in heart health.
So to answer your question, yes. Take another 400 to 800 IU weekly (mixed tocopherols is possible) for added health. But if you want to minimize supplemental intake, just make sure you have E in your fish oils.
Hope that helps buddy.

Ben a long time since I told you I love you so much.
Thank you so much.
Austinite, Your VASCULARITY protocol didn't work for me nor my friend. I don't recommend it to guys who have high blood pressure and suffer from stomachache. the stuff made me feel so tired before I start my workout. Taking any kind of pre workout supplements are way easier and more effective for both pump and vascular look than buying and taking all the stuff you mentioned in the protocol.
Sucks for you. But don't give recommendations when you're not sure what you're talking about, in fact, it will LOWER blood pressure. That's what nitric oxide does, it widens your veins...
Educate yourself heavily before you pitch something that doesn't make sense, please. What do you think is in your pre-workout supplements? Amino acids. Your post is silly, unreliable and misleading.
Edit: Looking at what little post history you have, you're obviously clueless (Mr. Animal Pak - you should know that stuff is a joke/garbage). I think you're making shit up for some odd reason.

Hey aus...
I'm looking to start supplementing zinc, magnesium, and chromium.
At the minute, my choices are with chromium picolinate, magnesium glycinate and a decent form of zinc.
Can you reccomend any and at what doses?
Appreciate it pal.

Do you know what brands are ok to go for? I'm finding it hard to get a decent zinc chelate. Was hoping for ortate or asparate?Originally Posted by austinite
Also what magnesium product do you take. Looked into now foods but have to see if I can get from Amazon. Cheers.
Orotate is best. I use powders only, I buy wholesale. What I use really wont help you because you can't get it unless you become a retailer.
The following brands have my stamp of approval:
- LEF (Life Extension)
- NuMedica
- NOW Products
- Jarrow
- Xymogen
- BIO-TECH
- McPherson Labs
- Neuro Biologix

Hey Aus, couple of options here if you dont mind helping me out. Looking around these are the best options I have really and was wondering if they are worth it. Thus doing what they are meant to.
Zinc
NOW Zinc Picolinate - NOW Zinc Picolinate 50mg 120 Caps
Solgar Zinc Citrate - Solgar Zinc Citrate 30 mg Capsules at the health store.ie
Zinc Gluconate - Maximum Strength Zinc Tablets (25mg) | Holland and Barrett
Magnesium
NOW Magnesium Citrate - NOW Magnesium Citrate 120 caps
Magnesium Citrate - Magnesium Citrate (100mg) | Magnesium | Holland & Barrett
Along with these ill take 2mg of copper. Thanks Aus.
Ive also found a Solgar outlet that deals with solgar products. From what I know they are decent products and are not too expensive but you know more than me![]()
Do you see any benefits of taking the liquid L-Carnatine as a pre-workout? Thanks!!

Finally i have read the 1121 comments..Thanks for your effort i have learned a lot.
i will buy this supplements :
DIM
magnesium citrate
zinc/copper
chromium
vit c
vit E
vit A
vit b6
vit b12
vit D3
l-arg
citruline
cystiene
lysine
methanionine
theanine
tryptophan
NAC
fish oil
l-carnitine
glutamine
BCAA
glucosamine
my questions :
1- i will run your vascularity stack ,should i drop or add Pycnogenol ?
2-what are the benefits of (ALpha lipoic acid,histidine,calcium,Phenylalanine) ,should i add them or they will be useless ?
3-using vit B complex injection is as good as B12 injection ?
4-is anything in this list useless ? should i add another supplement ??
Thanks in advance.
Looks good.
1. Use pycnogenol if you feel you need it. If you're using the vascularity stack, you don't really need it.
2. All the mentioned have benefits, but I don't use them. ALA and histidine are discussed already. No need for calcium unless you're defecient. Phenylalanine is basically Tyrosine. Skip it and use Tyrosine to avoid first conversion.
3. Learn about B12 in this post...
4. I don't use BCAA's. Glucosamine is useless for most people, Magnesium should do the trick.
