NO Supplement and 'Fat Burners'

[GJJNY]

I think I remeber reading on here that taking a Hot Rox type supplement along with something like a NoXplode or Fast Twitch wouldn't be worth it. Anyone care to expand on this? Also, if one wanted to take the prewokrout drink along with a 'fat burner', what would be an acceptable timeline between the two to minimize any negation of the other?

i was wondering the same thing

I know with NO Xplode, for maximum results, you shouldn't eat 2 hrs prior ( or drink protein shake 1 hr prior) to consumption. And have 1 hr after consumption before eating again. I"m unsure as to Fat burners negating the effects of NO Xplode, but it does say on the tub that NO Xplode is a dietary supplement also.

Sorry I can't really answer your question, just state what I know personally.

i'm also wondering the same thing about fat burners & NO products since i'm going to work out the next 2 months...

oh well, i'll just give things a try since i got some fat burning pills & powder for free

As long as your fat burner does not contain ephedra(ine) then there should be know interference with the NO, at least in terms of vasodilation issues. The real issue would be a potential overdose of non-ephedra stimulants, which will be in your fat burner and your xplode. Therefore, you would not want a full dose of each as this will be too much stimulant for most people. So, you could either cut the dose of each, which will limit the amount of caffine, but also limit the amount of creatine and NO from your xplode. So, just ditch the fat burner, and get the full dose of xplode and you'll be good to go. Now, for people who are stimulant sensitive, a full dose of xplode or a similar product is still way too much caffine (even without taking a fat burner) so it may be a better route to get a creatine and no separate, then consume just a little (if any) stimulant to get that 'surge' that we all know and love.

if i remember correctly (and i rarely do) i think it had something to do with the fact that alot of stims and fat burners contain shitloads of caffeine which would somehow counteract the vasodilation effects of the no-xplode. I always thought that was an awfully wobbly argument considering how much caffeine is in no-xplode itself, and besideswhich i think KK has put that put that theory to bed anyway. i'll try to find that thread and post it for ya.

I take Cytolean in the mornings and NoXplode at night. I like it so far.

Ask on the t-nation forum. This has come up before over there. And ya, any interference would probably be from the caffeine and yohimbine (maybe).

thats so funny i JUST started taking both of those hot rox and NO explode. i took both the other day i took the fat burner in the morning like it said, then six hours later, and then drank the NO 1/2 before my workout. i felt fine during my workout, but i had a hell of a time getting to sleep that night. i could feel my heart on over load for sure. i dont suggest it. i would say maybe take a couple fat burners in the morning and the NO before your workout. just skip the second dose of fat burners. i did that today and i feel way better. alot less cracked out. hope that helps
