Androstenedione





Consumer Review: Androstenedione And Norandrostenedione Were Of Some Help, But Did Not Give Me Super Dramatic Gains.
I am 29 and have been working out consistently for over a year and a half now. I started out at 148 lbs and now am 172 lbs. I am currently taking androstenedione and noradrostenedione (MuscleTech products) in a stack: 4 weeks on, 4 off. I have gotten some gains from this and probably as a result of the increased tempo of workouts. I do a split workout:

Day 1: Morning--quads. Evenings--lats and chest.
Day 2: Shoulders, arms, forearms, and I alternate them, 1-2-1-2-1-2-off.

Probably the increased tempo is from the mildly anabolic effects of having some extra energy from a mild increase of testosterone production. Andro and norandro don't make me have flashes, no acne. The only thing is that since I have more energy and my muscles are 5-10% stronger, I have to be careful to not get injured. Whenever you start making gains after being on a plateau for several months, it is crucial to really stretch out and warm up. Otherwise the extra pump you get could result in a pulled muscle or tendon that will knock you out of commission for that body part for a week or more.

I also take 5 grams of creatine a day. I think it helps modestly, volumizes your muscle cells somewhat, but it isn't a wonder substance. Also I take some glutamine, 2 multivitamins, and 2 meal supplement replacement packs along with a diet rich in carbs and protein.

The biggest gains I have posted for working out over a year though is when I started counting protein calories--taking in a gram per pound of body weight every day and spreading out the protein intakes 6-7 times a day. I record my protein intakes in a notepad so I ensure that I follow this religiously. You could take all the supplements, steroids or whatever, but if you don't have the protein/amino acid building blocks, you aren't going to gain squat. This helped me post my most significant weight gain in 3 months--15 lbs from 150 to 165 nine months ago.
