    Quick TRIBULUS question

    I was on ebay today lookig at the supplement section and came across TRIBULUS. Now I done a search and know it can be used to get natural test levels to normal after a cycle, but on the advice of the bro's here I want to stay roid free for a bit longer.

    My question is can I take TRIBULUS with my diet and expect any decent results and are the results permenant or do you loose the gains when you stop the Tribulus.

    Just dont wanna waste my cash thats all

    I think you would be better off with food and maybe some creatine bro. Trib may help you along your way, but I don't think you need to be concerned with PCT. A lot of people take trib year round.

    Trib can be taken all year, I do. I also take Tongkat Ali which is stronger than trib. Does it work, not really sure, but I think my head thinks its working and if it is happy, then I am happy.

    Tribulus definitely works as a natural testosterone booster . My 22 year old brother who has never touched more than protein / creatine started taking 3g a day for 2 months and saw significant gains and said he felt more energized during the day. It also makes you horny as hell, and my brother who has been pimple free for over 5 years got very light acne on his back, just to show you that the testosterone is deffinitely there.

    Seeing gains from tribulus in 5 days indicates either you previously have a testosterone deficiency or that you are seeing placebo effect in action. As tribulus will not bring testosterone levels higher than your natural test level, it works through stimulating Luteinizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone to increase natural testosterone production. And your body has many systems of negative feedback to make sure things don't go crazy, especially hormonally.

    Tribex is a blend of trib and avena sativa i believe. That is what they used to sell for pct after mag-10. Vitrix by nutrex has the highest standardization percentage that i have seen so far.

    that's right. you've been doing your homework. also after taking 1 meth, or any prohormone to keep your test from dropping.

    I ordered 100 grams of tribulus from true protein(standardized to 90% saponins). Im going to take 5 grams tribulus ED. With the higher standardization percentage you get double the saponins you want, most brands that sell tribulus have it standardized to at least 45%. So im expected some kind of testosterone boost after i do another m1t/4-ad cycle. I will be using a relatively high dose of tribulus, 100 mg clomid and 35 mg nolvadex (and other supps) for pct between my next two cycles (20 mg m1t/400 mg trans 4-ad) and following my last cycle, which will be a superdrol/winstrol cycle.

    This maybe a stupid question, but I'm confused, it looks like its powder, and knowing how terrible tribulous tastes (I opened a Vitrix once) how do you plan to take it?

    Worst case scenario i will just dump a teaspoon in my mouth and swig something to wash it down. But only if the taste effects the shakes flavor.

    I was thinking of getting some tribulus to add to my pct of clomid//nolva//zma//creatine that won't be for a while though I just started m1t//test-e... Anyways NSA have you tried it in with your protein drink yet?? I know powder stuff is horrible and I will give this a try if it mixes ok in a shake... Also, do you have to spread this stuff throughout the day like most other stuff or it's just once ed at 5-6grams?
