Celnbuterol

Clenbuterol is a β2 agonist with certain structural and pharmacological similarities to ephinphrineand Albuterol, but its effects are more potent and longer-lasting as a stimulant and thermogenic
drug than any other drug in its category. Clen causes an increase in aerobic capacity, central nervous system stimulation, and an increase in blood pressure and oxygen transportation. It increases the rate at which body fat is metabolized while increasing the body’s body’s metabolic rate which basically allows your body to break down macronutrients MUCH EASIER. It is commonly prescribed by doctors it’s for smooth muscle relaxant properties. It used as bronchodilator by people who suffer from breathing disorders like as asthma.  When it comes to beta-2 agonists Like Celn, Albuterol, and ephedrine everyone reacts differently. Half of my article will explain what clenbuterol looks like on paper, in studies, and how it should work and has worked for many people. However Through my many years in dealing with real life people as well as my own experiences I have learned No two people are exactly alike. Everyone reacts differently to different compounds from the side effects they experience to the results they get from them.  I can only explain to you what studies have shown me, what information I have gathered from various literature/resources, what I have learned through my own experiences,  and lastly what I have learned through helping others use these chemicals.  I have used clenbuterol  several different times in several different ways.  I did not get great results with clenbuterol and I did not like the side effects I experienced.  Nonetheless I personally know thousands of people who loved both the results and the experience of using clenbuterol. This may or may not be the right research chemical for you.. My job is to Arm you with as much information as I can so that you can experience clenbuterol for your self. In the safest  possible way and knowing everything there is to know about how your experience may turn out. So that you will be ready for whatever comes your way. So that You can Kill that Sh*t the right way..

What Beta 2 adrenegic agonists?

They promote smooth muscle relaxation, resulting in the dilation of bronchial pathways, vasodilation in liver and muscle, they also cause the relaxation of uterine muscle in women, and the release of insulin where its anabolic properties begin. Beta-adrenergic receptors are stacked together to stimulate G protein. The alpha subunit of the G protein activates adenylyl cyclase, which then catalyzes the production of cyclic adenosine monophosphate  aka cAMP. In the lung, cAMP produces a decrease in the intracellular calcium plasma concentrationd through activation of protein kinase A.  In addition, beta-2 agonists open large conductance calcium-activated potassium channels and thereby tend to hyperpolarize airway smooth muscle cells. The combination of decreased intracellular calcium and increased membrane potassium conductance, with decreased myosin light chain kinase activity leads to smooth muscle relaxation and bronchodilation.  This is the reason the body gets so dehydrated and cramped during a Clen run. We will dive into further in a bit.

Clen improves body composition

In this study I came across twenty-three unfit Standard bred mares were divided into four experimental groups. The one group was give 2.4 mcg per kg of clen body weight twice daily plus exercise. The exercise routine was 50 of their max oxygen utilization at three times a week.  Booty fat thickness was measured at 2 week intervals by using B-mode ultrasound, and percent body fat (%fat) was calculated by using previously published methods. Results indicated body fat decreased 9.3% at week 4 and 6.9% at week 6, and fat-free mass) increased by 3.2% at week 8. On the other hand, Clen had significant changes in %fat (-15.4%), fat mass (-14.7%), and FFM (+4.3%) at week 2. ClenEx had significant decreases in %fat (-17.6%) and fat mass (-19.5%) at week 2, which was similar to Clen; however, this group had a different fat free mass response, which significantly increased moer than 4.4% at week 6. That is amazing when you consider this was only a period 8 weeks (2months). Most people are happy if they can lose 2 percent bodyfat in 12 weeks. The fact that fat free mass INCREASED shows that this drug is not only thermogenic but also ANABOLIC. Again this has to be attributed to the fact that Clen increases insulin release, remember insulin is the most anabolic hormone in the body.  (J Appl Physiol. 2001 Nov;91(5):2064-70)

Thought I never would say this, CLen is good for the liver LOL

In a study I came upon, Clenbuterol minimized LPS-induced liver damage, as represented by significantly lowered concentrations of several parameters for liver-failure (AST, ALT, Bilirubin), and improved hepatic tissue morphology. Clenbuterol administration after LPS challenge failed to inhibit TNF alpha-release but reduced liver-damage. Simultaneous use of the beta(2)-AR antagonist propranolol augmented LPS-induced liver failure, suggesting a role of endogenous adrenoceptor-agonists in prevention of organ-failure during systemic inflammation. The results indicate that a selective beta(2)-AR agonist might be used as an additional therapeutic agent in the clinic for the treatment of (acute) systemic inflammatory disorders in order to reduce or prevent subsequent liver failure.  Am I telling you guys to use this as liver protectant on cycle, NOOOOOOOO! All I am getting at is that it’s not liver toxic like others mentioned unless you do not treat your electrolyte levels with care, which can lead other problems besides liver issues, such as heart failure, brain malfunction and so on. (Inflamm Res. 2004 Mar;53(3):93-9. Epub 2004 Feb 16.)

Clen can aid in endurance, well at least for those who have asthma

Already it has been mentioned that Clen aids those with asthma as it breaks of the congested passageways, so that air flows freely. This in turn will allow the individual to do more anaerobic and aerobic activity. In this study, the protective effect of clenbuterol on exercise-induced asthma was studied in 14 patients with a specific bronchial hyperreactivity. The selectivity of clenbuterol for beta 2-receptors was also looked at during this study. Patients were selected according to spirometric criteria: reduced dynamic indexes of respiratory function after exercise and, particularly, forced expiratory volume at 1 s (FEV1) decreased by at least 20% compared with initial values. A polycardiographic study was simultaneously carried out for the evaluation of systolic time intervals and polycardiographic indexes. After the preliminary measurements (C1), oral clenbuterol was taken at 0.02 mg twice a day and measurements were repeated after 30 (CII) and 60 days (CIII) of therapy. During treatment, physical exercise did not significantly influence the indexes of respiratory function (FEV1 decreased by 4.7 +/- 5.8 and 9.8 +/- 10.5% in CII and CIII with respect to initial values). Similarly systolic time intervals and polycardiographic indexes did not change significantly with respect to the initial values. A small increase in heart rate at rest was observed in CII (+ 7%, p less than 0.05): however, no significant changes were recorded in CIII compared with the initial values. Clenbuterol thus seems to offer an effective protection against exercise-induced asthma without the negative effects on the cardiovascular system which may arise from activation of beta 1-adrenergic receptors.  The key is to take the proper dosage with clen, as too much causes respiratory issues which we will dive into. (Respiration. 1987;51(3):205-13.)

Clebuterol improves athletic performance?

Unlike inhaled beta 2-agonists, more studies  and human trials need to be performed before the action of systemic beta 2-agonists on athletic performance can be assessed accurately. Experiments in animals with oral clenbuterol have shown growth in muscle bulk across numerous species, but human studies cannot confirm similar muscle mass enlargement in healthy men at the moment. Of course the human studies demonstrate the potential for long-acting systemic beta 2-agonists such as Clen to increase muscle strength in certain muscle fiber types, it is difficult to judge the drugs’ effects on overall athletic performance, because athletic skill is more than strength, speed, and endurance. The effect of oral clenbuterol on athletic performance cannot be evaluated from its actions on muscle strength alone but effects on motor skill/ coordination. However, as evidence stands now, sports regulatory agencies are correct to ban systemic beta 2-agonists until the following 2 points can be proven: (1) oral forms provide a therapeutic benefit that cannot be obtained with aerosol or inhaled forms; and (2) oral forms do not give any unfair advantage to the competitor in muscle strength, power output, or endurance. Provided they are administered as prescribed, aerosol or inhaled beta-agonists do not impart an unfair advantage or enhance athletic performance and can continue to be used in competition by athletes with EIA. However, small studies have shown a small increase in power ouput. I know others such as myself receive a nice initial boost in lifts, for the first few weeks. Part of the reason the strength increase goes away is tolerance, but the other reason is probably tissue receptor saturation, meaning the B 2 receptors desensitized, thus no longer easily stimulated to give that nice pronounced effect. I will disagree with the article in stating that it is not known to whether Beta-2 agonists stimulate brain function, as it is clear that they stimulate the production of cAMP which definitely activates NMDA receptors. NMDA receptors are responsible for hormone production, cathelomine production and even other neurotransmitter production such as DOPAMINE. Both Dopamine and PEA are crucial for motor and coordination skills. Everytime I start taking Clen, I definitely notice more awareness, more MIND MUSCLE CONNECTION and so on.  I would NOT rule out Clen as performance enhancer by any means. For crying out loud, there are still researchers who do not find creatine monohydrate to be a performance enhancer. PFFTTT! (Ann Pharmacother. 1995 Jan;29(1):75-7.)

How to prevent down regulation

As you know Clen starts to lose its potency over a period of an estimated 14 days but I would say more 10 days LOL. Benedryl is one of the anti histamines people use help prevent toldernace. The other anti histamine is Ketofin which again does the same thing. Basically anit histamines inhibit phospholipase which brings the desensitization of beta 2 receptors to a hault. Thus, allowing one to have a longer effective Clen cycle. With these Anithistamines in your system, you can use Clen longer without the typical 1-2 week break in between. Most people will go 2 on and 2 off, but with these anti-histamines you could technically go 4 plus weeks straight. This is of course only one way of doing things and I personally Like a much different method which we will talk about later in my ” Clenbuterol dosage” segment of this write up.

Clenbuterol side effects 

 

Clebuterol depletes taurine from the body

If you want to read the study, I have the citation in paranthesis at the end of this paragraph. I can tell you this, that depletion of taurine can be really unsafe if not monitored. Taurine is responsible for storing electrolytes within their due tissues. Without a proper balance of electrolytes, the body WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. Be sure to supplement Taurine at least 950mg a day post work out or even as much as 3-6g daily.I recommend taking a dose of just Taurine  in the am, after your second dose of Clen, and post training . The reason Clenbuterol depletes taurine levels in the Liver , is because the body it stops the conversion of T4 to T3 within the Liver.  This is why many chemical using experts will suggest running T3 while on a Clen cycle. Since taurine will aid reducing electrolyte depletion, it will decrease overall cramps. I also recommend taking calcium as mentioned before, all B2 agonist will deplete calcium, so be sure to supplement at 500mg of Calcium while on Clen. Now you will need to supplement magnesium with Clen but it MUST be taken at a different time of the day then Calcium, as magnesium competes with calcium for the same receptors.  Potassium must also be taken during your clen cycle, you could always add some coconut water and bananas to your regime, as they are loaded with potassium and will be absorbed more efficiently than a potassium supplement.   (Adv Exp Med Biol. 1996;403:233-45.)

 

Not so good for cardio

Yes I know we discussed how the right amount of Clen could aid in endurance, but aerobic activitiy is a different part of your cardio conditioning, also think of it like this. I know people can lift more reps which requires more oxygen while on a cycle, yet; they cannot run the miles they were able to off of cycle. The difference here is merely aerobic verse anaerobic exercises. Anaerobic activity is based off of short bursts while aerobic activity is geared more the long haul. A power lifter would be a description of an anaerobic athlete, while a triathlon competitor would be a good description of an aerobic athlete. In a study I found, Clen Xdecreased O2max around 6.2% and velocity to O2max decreased 10.0%, whereas both CLENEX and CLEN decreased in time to exhaustion between 4 and 6 percent.  EX alone increased  O2max by more than 6.5%, velocity to O2max over 10.0%, velocity to produces lactate concentration of 4 mmol or plus 13.5%, and time to exhaustion slightly under 15%. Plasma volume was altered in CLENEX below 10% and EX over 27% but not in CLEN. Posttest recovery HR was higher at 2 min post-GXT in the CLENEX, CLEN, and CON compared with their pretest values; RVP remained elevated at 2 min of recovery in the CLEN and CON groups; however, in the EX, recovery HR and RVP had returned to pre-GXT levels by 2 min of recovery. There you notice that with other groups, their heart rate returned to normal, but with the pure clen group heart rate was still elevated, sure they were able to push beyond a normal rate but with the normal healthy body they would have recovered faster. I like to think of this like someone taking ephedrine before a fight, they would gas out in the first round due to such an elevated heart rate, the heart needs to be able to settle so that the body stays hydrated, and adrenaline to cortisol stay at proper levels, no one wants an adrenaline dump during competition, as their performance will suffer greatly.  (Med Sci Sports Exerc. 2002 Dec;34(12):1976-85.)

 

 

 

 

Clen can cause Skin Cell Death of the Heart at least in Rats

 

We all know that high doses of Clen cause extremely elevated heart rate levels. But we all thought it was only from the increased metabolic rate, thyroid production, and depletion of potassium. Well in essence, in theory, the depletion of potassium could be the reason for myocyte necrosis within the heart. Of course more research would be warranted to prove this theory but I cannot affor to pay for it. LMAO! In this study, Myocyte-specific necrosis in the heart and soleus muscle of adult male Wistar rats was investigated in response to a single subcutaneous injection of the anabolic beta(2)-adrenergic receptor agonist clenbuterol. Necrosis was immunohistochemically detected by administration of a myosin antibody 1 h before the clenbuterol challenge and quantified by using image analysis. Clenbuterol-induced myocyte necrosis occurred against a background of zero damage in control muscles. In the heart, the clenbuterol-induced necrosis was not uniform, being more abundant in the left subendocardium and peaking 2.4 mm from the apex. After position (2.4 mm from the apex), dose (5 mg clenbuterol/kg), and sampling time (12 h) were optimized, maximum cardiomyocyte necrosis was found to be 1.0 +/- 0.2%. In response to the same parameters (i.e., 5 mg of clenbuterol and sampled at 12 h), skeletal myocyte necrosis was 4.4 +/- 0.8% in the soleus. This data shows significant myocyte-specific necrosis in the heart and skeletal muscle of the rat. Such irreversible damage in the heart suggests that clenbuterol may be damaging to long-term heart health.

It is my job to tell you the dangers of everything as well as the benefits my friends. Unlike the Media however I will only tell you the truth and not over hyped propaganda with an agenda behind it. No I will explain the side effects and dangers of using a chemical that are “real”..

Clenbuterol dosage

When dosing clenbuterol you have several different ways of doing so however we have two main common dosing protocols. The first one being the 4 weeks on 4 weeks off clenbuterol dosage program, and the second being the 2 weeks on 2 weeks off clenbuterol dosage program.  Weather you decide to go with 2 weeks on 2 weeks off or 4 weeks on 4 weeks off the dosing will always start off the same and gradually increase/ramp up the same as well. When starting your clenbuterol program you will want to sart out with 3 20mcg doses a day and move up 20mcg every 2 to 3 days till you reach 140mcg max dosing for a man 100mcg for a woman IMO of course. Always spread the dosing out over 3 doses a day or more if you can and space them a couple of hours apart.  Never go above 140mcg and always only go up 20mcg every 2 to 3 days. You must access tolerance  first moving into clen easy to gauge how your body will react to this compound. Always live on the side of safety my friends.  Once you reach 140mcg stick to that dose for the rest of the time you are on the clen cycle. If you are a smaller person Ie below 175lb then you need not go above 100mcg at most. This should be plenty to see results and always remember that more is not always better. Here is what my dosing looked like over the first 10 days of my last clenbuterol program…

I have noticed that that many of the IFBB pros Tend to train really lose. Branch Warren who is one of my favorites uses Ballistic, short range motions on many exercises. BAM, BAM, BAM! On noticed this with Dave on RTB trilogy….the “Dave Pulcinella row downs” So I actually started experimenting with this and what is crazy to me is I feel it less in my joints on many exercises (NOT ANYTHIONG ON LEGS!) and I can handle more weight. Seems like a win win! As I am getting older…something I am coming to grips with slowly now, I am having to find new ways to train. My old BLOOD & GUTS days seem to be over now to a large degree. I am still very strong on many exercises but it used to be I would just grab the F’n weight and push of pull or whatever had to be done….just “PUUUUUSSSH!” Now I find myself evaluating the whole time what my physical status is every 1/2 second so I don’t get hurt! What a bunch of bullshit! But 30 years has taken a toll on me to be sure. I hurt all the time. Something always hurts. I used to joke about if I did not have an injury somewhere I was not training hard enough. 3 tendon ruptures later and countless pull and strains (I just tweaked my groin about 2 hours ago!) It does not seem as funny anymore. The really stupid part is, after everything I have been through and those who know me know it is a lot, I cannot stop. I can’t. In a way I would like to but something inside me will not let me stop. I feel unfinished and I am not sure as to why. I will not after 25+ years at this sport let the last show I do be the one I got busted preparing for, I refuse. I will come back and it will be with a vengeance. I am going to push myself, my business and my focus on being successful in all areas of my life be it bodybuilding, my PT, or comp prep business, my relationship with my son and Rita and my family. Everything. Now I just need some 30 hour days!

I have attended several bodybuilding competitions already this year and I am afraid to say I am fearful of the future of women’s bodybuilding. At one competition there was only 1 female bodybuilder. At another competition while it was better there was only six female bodybuilders total. There should have been at many per weight class. This certainly wasn’t any shortage of bikini or figure competitors. Each of these classes had around 20 competitors per high-class. I understand the female bodybuilding isn’t for everyone but I do feel that the powers that be and the NPC are directing the sport to phase out female bodybuilding. With the addition of women’s physique to me this seems even more apparent. I think it is sad that women bodybuilding gives so little recognition without their pioneering efforts there would have been no bikini, no figure, and no fitness. In a sense is the powers that be fault that women’s bodybuilding is in the state that it is. I know several professional women bodybuilders who told me that they have no desire to look like the current Ms. Olympia and these are not petite women in any sense of the word. So when the look that is being presented as the best in the world is not sought after by the athletes who are participating in the sport how anyone can expect the average person to find something that they would be interested in pursuing. While I respect what the current Ms. Olympia has accomplished with her physique I can also see why it is not something that would be most people’s cup of tea. I hope something is done before it is too late for this aspect of her sport. Will I find women bodybuilders sexy and attractive which is obvious as I’m in a relationship of 10 years with a champion female bodybuilder even for me this has its limits. It would certainly be a shame if things are allowed to continue on their current course.

After the competition Tony and I ate like true gluttons. We each ate over a pound of cookie cake, six breadsticks, three quarters of a large pizza, half a pound of twice baked potatoes, three candy bars, a humongous slab of Oreo cake, and that was when I realized I had not had milk over six months! So I poured a 20 ounce glass of moo juice. Tony is there telling me how freaking good it is going to be with his eyes all big and an even  bigger smile on his face. I took the glass and pour the milk down with a resounding AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Just as I was about to remark on how good it was it hit me! I had gone too far! The milk had tipped the scales! I was overcapacity and something had to give. I remarked “oh no, I should not have done that!” Tony was laughing I assume from the panicked look on my face.  Why? he said. I said because Man it was too much! I am going to fucking blow! Now he is really losing it! He has bent over, holding his gut waving me off and yelling stop, stop, stop! You’re going to make me puke too! Then he laughed even more. I ran in the bathroom slamed the door and proceeded to regurgitate about 5 pounds of undigested food! As I was brushing my teeth I was hit with the realization that my stomach was completely empty. I felt like a partying Roman. I announced this upon going into the kitchen and my wife exclaimed “Jeff that is gluttony!” I said are you kidding me I have a six-month credit from starving! God will give me a pass on this I’m sure! This got Tony laughing again and holding his gut. Unfortunately for Tony he is not a puker and was unable to expel any of the food he consumed and was miserably full the entire night. I ate a normal amount of food went to sleep content and satisfied probably the happiest I had ever been in my whole life.

Another factor was that I had done several diets up to this point so my body knew what to do. I have discovered over the years the more diets a person does the better your body gets it losing fat. It is much like muscle memory I suppose. We could call it diet memory and I had several contests under my belt by this time. You know the losses came more slowly and were much more difficult for Tony, at one point I was discussing with John the fact that Tony was not losing. John asked me what Tony’s calorie intake was. I informed him that Tony was only eating 1000 calories a day. To this John replied bullshit!” Tony was so pissed off! He was actually more pissed off than I’ve ever seen him since! He told me 20 years later if John hadn’t had 100 pounds on him, he would’ve punched him in the face! Tony hung in there like a real trooper and indeed he did lean out nicely for his first competition. We decided a couple weeks out he would go ahead with his plans to step on stage he and he had been practicing posing and had it down well. Tony seemed to be a natural at posing and moved from pose to pose well in his routine. A couple days before the show we decided to tan at his mom’s house in the basement. After we had a couple of coats of the old Coppertone suntan one we went to the stairs to find Toney’s huge Siamese cat Tika on the stairs looking at us in a strange way. I do not think she knew who we were with the tan on and it seemed like she decided to defend her territory! Tika had all of her claws out and she intended to use all the weapons at her disposal on us! She began growling really low and hissing, her fur was all puffed up and her teeth were bared. Tony tried to get past her and almost got laid open by a claw swipe! Not a good thing before one steps on stage display one’s physique. Tony tells me to try to get past her; I exclaimed “fuck that man!” So he gets a shoe and begins swatting at this bitch cat! She would not back down even an inch! The more aggressive Tony got the more aggressive Tika got. It was a battle to be sure. I have to tell you I was at the bottom of the stairs laughing my ass off at this bizarre spectacle taking place! Tony finally gave Tika a good hard whack to the face and she finally gave up and ran up the stairs and we quickly exited the basement. Once out of the basement Tony looks at me, eyes all big and said “holy shit, can you believe that?”I told him “I’d never seen anything like it!” but that it didn’t surprise me because when it comes to doing a contest prep Mr. Murphy always seem to be present in forcing his will of whatever can go wrong will indeed do just that and go disastrously wrong! Anyone reading this that has done hard contest preps will know exactly what I’m talking about! So with the tanning debacle over, we went and posed some and let the tan set some before adding yet another orange/brown coat until we were dark enough to take the stage. I drove to the show and Tony did quite well for his first time out. I received yet another third-place trophy.

The next competition that we would prep for would be in the 1989 Mr. Cincinnati, this would be my last teenage competition. I had also planned on crossing over into the open men’s lightweight division. I think by 19 my estrogen had begun to drop because of that my physique was becoming much harder. I also put a little more lean mass on because I had not competed in over a year, the constant dieting I had been doing since my first competition was really holding back my development but I just could not stop competing because I loved it so much. I was obsessed with competition and this was hurting my development. Sitting here in prison I realize that this obsession has really come home to roost now and a price too high has now been anteed up, but back to the story.
