Below we asked three
trainers their views and opinions from the following
supplements Biotest's Tribex, CNP's Pro Male and USN Tri-Anabol. These people have been training and using sport
supplements for over two years.
| Question |
Before
us we have a selection of the most popular used hormonal optimisation/manipulation
supplements, that you have all tried and used and you wish to share with
us your views and opinions. Hormone
manipulation - what do you think guys, good idea or bad? |
| Answer |
Mike
- Essential. We do all sorts of things to manipulate our hormones all
of the time. Diet and exercise are the biggest. Taking a cold bath. Eating
something natural that makes you produce more testosterone is great.
Peter - Totally
worth it. Safe, natural and legal. Get a better physique, get motivated,
feel better in yourself. What could be better?
Tony - I think its
great for us older trainers. There's nothing worse than hitting 45 and
noticing your testosterone levels are nothing like what they used to be.
Im a fan of both pro-hormones and tribulus products. Anything that places
you in an optimal hormonal environment for muscle growth, success and fat
loss gets my big vote.

| Question |
So
tell me about the products you have been using and what you wanted to gain
from them.
|
| Answer |
Peter
- I used the traditional Tribex by Biotest, respected as one of the
finest Bulgarian Tribulus products out there. I used it for the full
month. I wanted strenght gains and increased training motivation.
Mike - I used the
Tri-Anabol. Was keen to see what the Iproflavone does when combined with
the tribulus. I was hoping for physique enhancement under a calorie
controlled diet. I wanted to see if it made me harder and more vascular.
Hoping to lose some fat.
Tony - Oh, I was the
reverse. I was on an extremely high calorie weight gain cycle for four
weeks. Keen to put on as much weight and strength as possible! I used the
CNP Pro-Male which is Trib plus the new Eurycoma Longifolia product.
|
| Question |
And
what results did you actually experience from your products?
|
| Answer |
Mike
- Good ones! Ha. The main thing is I got harder and leaner. I didn't
gain any weight to be honest, but normally it drops off me and I actually
stayed the same, which makes me feel I got leaner, so I must have been
building muscle even on a calorie controlled diet.
Tony - I was more
aggressive with the weights. More confident. More motivated. I was
stronger and recovered perfectly and quickly between each workout so I
didn't have to wait so long. I trained more often, so, like steroids, I
must have been increasing my protein synthesis!
Peter - All that
plus the bonus. I work a strange job with shifts. I went without sleep a
couple of days in the week. Normally that floors me and I need a coupe of
extra rest days to recover. I didn't need any extra rest. My immune system
wasn't touched. I felt fit as a fiddle and wide awake. I know they say
increased testosterone can make you feel this alive. It was great.

| Question |
Good
results. Would you use them again?
|
| Answer |
Tony
- Yeah, I would. I cycle the, like this. ProHormone one month,
Pro-Male one month and then one to two months off and repeat.
Mike - All the time.
One brand or another. Although I did like the added benefits of the
Ipriflavone. Might stick to that one for awhile.
Peter - I like to
use Tribulus on an infrequent basis, but I am younger than these guys
here. Id definately recommend it for when you are trianing very intense or
suffering any physical or mental distress. Perfect supplement to diet on
to retain muscle mass and strength.
|
| Question |
Ok,
so can you think of any other product to combine with the product you were
taking, that would increase its effectiveness?
|
| Answer |
Peter
- Definately agree with the ideas of Biotest themselves. Id use Mag10
cycles with Tribex, or possible, their Methoxy product if you want to stay
away from the pro hormone market.
Mike - I always use
a testosterone booster with a really good creatine and a lot of protein. I
think SAN's V12 Turbo and Reflex Instant Whey are perfect to combine with
the Tri-Anabol. Especially to absorb more protein - the Instant Whey is
just right.
Tony - If you're
using something like Pro-Male to gain weight, there's nothing better than
a superior, high calorie weight gain product such as Mamouth by
Interactive.
