HOT-ROX Extreme
100% Whey Protein
Creatine Monohydrate
Fish Oil
ZMA
Ultimate Nutrition - Testosterone Grow HP.

I would only use ZMA, test grow, and hot rox, if you have money to spend while on a cut.

I understand everything, but the Hot-Rox
do you feel that they work?
I tried them and didn't notice any results worthwhile besides me maintaining weight

has lowered.

Fish Oil could possibly do that though. Some unsaturates if not all can have effects on fat lowering, as can muscle growth, and metabolic improvement, for better calorie intake.

I think, (whilst I'm not ripping on you), other such factors may be blurring the lines, regarding what the Hot-rox is or isn't doing.

You could be right Bossman but I'm just convinced because under normal circumstances it would be difficult to lose 2% in two weeks.

Boss Man · Post by **Boss Man** » Wed Sep 10, 2008 10:40 am

I agree with that. 2% in 2 weeks would be very hard, except on Ketogenic diet, like the type Bodybuilders might use.

I guess neither of us will ever really know the absolute biological truth, as the human body is too complex in such situations ot guess. I'd think even a very good specialist would have a hard time saying a definite yes or no on this, but then you'd never really need to consult one on this basis anyway.

1% a week is easily do able with the right food and training (notice i didn;t say supps)...i had a chick who lost 2% in 1 week / 2.5kgs in total all water and fat no muscle

you're better off using 1 supp at a time really...what if only one supp is working for you? then you're wasteing cash on the other 5 but you'd never know

even better, eat better

I'm not going to continue using hot rox, or the testosterone stuff after cut. I'm just going to keep creatine, fish oil, and protein powder.

What exactly does Fish Oil do for you? I see containers of "Fish Oil Pills" some places. That's what you're talking about right?

Yes it's good for your joints and heart. It also can be attributed to some fat loss.

How many fish oil pills should I take? What it suggests on the bottle?

Go with the recommended on the bottle. Fish Oils also contain omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids which are healthy fats. They help with muscle repair and growth, metabolisation etc.

Cheers
