I am giving Ostarine a try. My first ever PED after 35 years of bodybuilding and weightlifting. I am on week 2. Week one was great. I noticed a 20% greater resilience in the gym. More pump.

This week I got hit with terrible insomnia. Worse than normal insomnia although we have had a heat wave here with high humidity & mosquitos at night. After 4 nights in a row there was a 6 degree celsius temperature drop & I got a midsummer cold.

Its dawned upon me that the insomnia is a symptom of magnesium deficiency. Aggravated by the climate sure but its still not normal.

SARMs clearly must dramatically increase your magnesium requirement. Vitamin D and Zinc also.

So I started supplementing & will continue to do so for the next six weeks. Kind of a shame but there you go. I wonder how many other SARM side effects are nutrition related?

Creatine also needs to be used with increased magnesium intake. Doing so dramatically improves strength gains.

For a triple bang do SARMs, creatine & Magnesium together.

Here is a pic of the supplements I currently use…

In the foreground is a packet of tribulus from purebulk.com – this will last me for years (until it expires).

Above that are two packets of pine pollen bought from China off ebay. Next to those is a packet of nettle root from ebay.

Then the containers at the rear from the left are Vitamin C, Two containers of acetyl-L-carnitine from nutrabio.com that will last until 2015, a container of Beta Glucan from purebulk, Two year supply of Creatine from nutrabio, multi vitamin, grape seed extract & finally two bottles of colostrum which is abundant locally.

Here’s why I take this stuff:

Pine Pollen
Nettle Root
Tribulus

These are basically my Pro Testosterone & Anti Estrogenic stack.

Colostrum

Contains Igf Insulin like growth factor & I like to let these melt under my tongue.

Vitamin C
Multi Vitamin
Grape extract

Contains resveratrol and quercetin for mitochondria production, general health

Beta Glucan

I take this exclusively to boost my immune system, the colostrum also has immunological compounds as does the multi vitamin.

Creatine Monohydrate

Well you all know what that’s for. Interestingly the Pine Pollen is a complete protein. Creatine contains three amino acids.

Acetyl-L-Carnitine

This stuff is great for the liver and can actually cure NASH – non alcoholic liver syndrome or fatty liver. My liver blood profile is usually out a bit so I take this stuff. Combined with the green tea and creatine it is also a great brain tonic. Pine Pollen is also good for the liver.

I also drink lots of green tea and oolong tea everyday. I cant take all of the supplements in the world but that is why I take what I take.

Hey man I just made a youtube vid explaining where I get my cheap supplements from.
