As of 7/15/06 i have taken the following 45 minutes before my workout:

Acetyl L-Carnitine - 1/2 teaspoon (1.58 grams)    - [new to the stack]
Multi-Vitamin - 2
L-arginine capsule - 5 (2.5 grams)

i will be reffering to Acetyl L-Carnitine by ALCAR.  i will be posting a day by day review.

(7/15/06)  DAY 1:
Took 1/2 teaspoon (1.5g)  45 minutes before my workout.  i didn't notice a real difference in energy or anything, but it is only the first day.



(7/16/06)  DAY 2:
Took same amount at same time before workout, except this time i saw noticable increases in energy and strength (maybe a coincidence?).  today was chest and forearms day.  the first thing i did was Dumbell flat bench.  usually i use the 50's and 55's for 4 sets,  but today they felt like nothing so i went up to 60's, then 65's, then 70's for 5 reps.  HOLY S**T.  i went up about 15 to 20 lbs.!!  next was Dumbell incline bench.  on this i usually use 45's and 50's for 3 sets.  but again they felt like nothing so i went up to the 60's and got 4 reps, another big gain!!  then i did 3 sets on the Hammer Strength Decline bench machine.  on this i usually do like 180 for about 6 to 8 reps,  but guess what hapened today,  i was able to get 230lbs. for 5 reps.  i wish i would have maxed out today!  i will wait untill tommorow before i get to excited becus it may have been a combination of other factors.



(7/17/06)  DAY 3:
took it at same time but upped the dose to 3/4 teaspoons (2.37g).  but 4 sum reason i had normal...maybe even less energy!!! WTF! no weight increase or anything felt to tired to do cardio afterwards. o well i gonna keep trying.



(7/18/06)  DAY 4:
again i took 1/2 teaspoon(1.58g) 45 minutes pre-workout.  today was Arms day.  i didn't have much of an energy increase or strength increase, so i'm thinking that day2 was just a combination of different things.  but i did notice that i felt a little more focused on form.  i felt like becus i was really focused on form that i had a greater pump and did more damage to the muscles.  i was able to do 2 cycles of HIIT at the end.



(7/19/06)  DAY 5:
I didn't go to the gym today but i took some ALCAR anyway.  i'm noticing just a tiny bit less fat on my arms but no where else.  i also noticed that there is more fat around my stomach/midesection.  WTF?!!  its almost as if its moving the fat from one place to another (i know thats impossible).  although i did eat a big meal last night so it may be do to that.
