Supplements During Cycle

**BigJames** · 04-16-2007, 03:55 PM

Are there any over the counter supplements that you use while on cycle? I use protein and glutamine year round, but is there anything in the store that is a "must use" type product in conjunction with gear? Creatine? NO2 products?

Thanks,

BigJ

what kind of cycle are you doing, and are you asking about support supps too or just things like creatine

I am planning a Test E / Eq cycle. I am planning on this:

Week 1-13 Test E @ 600mg/wk
Week 1-12 Eq @ 400mg/wk

I will use nolva throughout at 10mg ED and bump it in PCT to 20mg ED and add clomid. I will likely follow pheednos PCT as it worked well last time. I like to add some Tribulus to the PCT at 3g ED 5 days on 2 days off as well.

I am wondering about supps like creatine and nitric oxide boosters, etc. Are they worthwhile while on cycle or do they basically just legally mimic the effects of being on cycle?

well none of them will legally mimis the effects of being on a cycle not even close, they arent neccasary for a cycle but if you want to take supplements you can, are you taking any support supps

What do you mean by support supps? I am not familiar with the term...

Support supplments for example would be "liver support or cholesterol support"...

Ahhh...yes...I forgot about that: I will take Milk Thistle Extract throughout - I cannot remember the daily amount off the top of my head, but it was recommended to me on my first cycle and I will use it again this time for me liver.

Is this what you mean? I took nothing for cholesterol last time and my blood pressure on 500mg/wk for 12 weeks (my first cycle) stayed within a healthy range.

What are these? Besides the thistle I was not aware of these others...what is RYR and CoQ10?

**nyjetsfan86** · 04-16-2007, 06:21 PM

ryr = red yeast rice is for choleterol, ryr lowers the coenzymes in your bod y so you want to take CoQ10 which is an anti oxident for your heart

dude just go to a nutrition store and get some cholesterol support and liver suport if you ask they will point you in the right direction.

why not ask us? thats what this forum is for, he is asking questions in the right place and we are giving him answers

**BigJames** · 04-17-2007, 12:02 PM

How much of each per day? I am asking because sometimes the doses on the bottles is not enough when you are putting strain on your system like AAS puts on...

**nyjetsfan86** · 04-17-2007, 12:06 PM

Milk Thistle: 2000mg ED
RYR: 1200mg
FF Niacin 2000mg ED
Hawthorn Berry 1200mg ED
Flax 3g ED
C0Q10 120mg ED

Thanks nyjetsfan86...

**nyjetsfan86** · 04-17-2007, 03:49 PM

np bro, or course for an injection cycle all those arent needed im just giving you some options, if you were on an oral cycle i would use all

**K.Biz** · 04-17-2007, 04:03 PM

i also like fish oil added to my cycke. around 6-7 grams a day

**nyjetsfan86** · 04-17-2007, 04:04 PM

fish oil/flax oil does the same thing

**BigJames** · 04-17-2007, 04:33 PM

Thanks for the info guys. I will def take Milk Thistle (as I did last time), RYR, and the CoQ10. I will likely pass on the rest since it is a non-oral cyc.

Thanks,
