I just brought that up because my wife had a cold, and I was looking into all the drugs they gave her. One was an antihistamine, but also classified as an anticholinergenic. I looked at the effects of this type of drugs, and the side effects I was having, and was almost certain it would have helped. As for side effects from things like codeine, expect it to be totally different from the supplements I mentioned. But give it a try with a low dose first just in case you don't like the effects. It will put you 'in the zone' and if you aren't ready or comfortable with it, it might not be very fun

Just did my first order at smartpowders. I usually use bb.com (actually ONLY until now) but sp.com has some things bb doesn't, and they offer a 10% discount as well.

Oxiracetam (to add to PWO)
Xtend - Orange Dream (intra workout drink, good for fasted training imo)
Nectar - Fruit Protein Isolate (best tasting protein EVAR, using it post workout)
L-Leucine powder - Add to post workout protein to make it 1337
Focus XT- Blue Raspberry - most legit PWO I've seen.
Phenibut - to make sure I get good sleep on nights before workouts

Total was about $100, shipping was $50

actually rogan has specified many times that it's nothing like limitless.

There obviously aren't any drugs like that, but as far as nootropics go, ab is a good formulation, just overpriced due to having slightly too many ingredients.

IMO a good stack is choline, a racetam, and occasionally some huperzine.

i think piracetam has been a let down for me

really what matters is how hard you push yourself with just your own thoughts, don't expect to pop a pill and your activity will all of a sudden be enhanced

Just a question with whey protein; are you supposed to cycle on/off with them over periods of time?

Also starting with Musclepharm Shred (got a 120 pack for only 20 bucks off a canadian website) so should I cycle that? If so, is it 1 month on, one month off?

Different racetams have different effects, at different dosages. If you are looking for something to turn you 'on' then oxyracetam is the way to go. If you want something more 'mellow' then aniracetam is a better bet. Piracetam is the original, and more of an 'overall' supplement - you must take a relatively high dosage for a very long time to get a benefit from it.

That's why I chose oxy, it only lasts 2-3 hours, and is the 'wired' one so I think it will work great as a pwo

So for the peoples who started taking beta alanine, how are you liking it?

I started taking it again since I am on a program that only gives around 1 minute of rest between sets

I took it before and got crazy tingles in my fingers. It actually felt kinda good when you're working out

I stopped taking it though cause sometimes I'd feel like throwing up after taking it so I couldn't push too hard or I'd puke

Yeah I used to get that after a big dose, so taper up. Instead of 2 doses of 4g, do 4 doses of 2g

bb.com is usually my go to place for all my supplements since its alot cheaper then buying locally, if I can't find something on bb.com I'll usually check fitnessone.com since pricing is similar. Nutraplanet.com usually has pretty good sales, especially on Black Friday.

Whenever I place an order I'll usually buy enough to last me a month or two, and have it shipped to Point Roberts since S&H is alot cheaper and faster. If your just looking to place a small order you might as well just buy locally and save yourself the hassle of driving across the border, waiting in line and maybe even end up having to pay taxes and duties.

If you want to check the difference in pricing check some of the Canadian supplement stores like Supplements Canada (Popeye's Supplements), SVN Canada (Fuel Supplements, Vitamins, Nutrition). Some of these stores will offer a discount but it usually isn't much more then the HST.

*If you do plan on buying from bb.com don't forget to use one of their 10% off coupons.

Just picked up my order from bb.com earlier today in Blaine. Saved about 40 bucks and used that towards gas. Definitely worth it if you're close to the border. But like beanzzz said, if you're going to order, order a couple of months worth of supplements.

I ended up in the longest line up heading into the US though, border officer made thorough checks to those of ethnic background. I was watching the vehicles in front of me being checked/passed through and it seemed every Caucasian was able to get through in 15 seconds.
