Your not alone on that, I was around then too.DirkMoneyshot said:Anyone been around since the days of the ALA craze over at EliteFitness. Fonz basically doing his own "research" on it. Taking something like 1,000 - 1,200 mg and other crazy shit.
Maybe I'm just to old.

Gotcha...I have a bottle that I got a while ago, but I don't remember if I ever took it...dunno proper timing or dosage, so it stayed in my gym bag...IA said 400 mg post-workout...DirkMoneyshot said:I doubt it- I experimented once with it at that dose and basically had the worst heartburn ever.
I wouldn't get caught up in the glucose disposal agents. If your looking for the health benefits it provides fine, otherwise its money on something you really don't need. First Chromium, then Vanadyl Sulfate and now ALA. We'll have something new in a couple years.
POPICULHO- Do you remember when Liquidex came on the market on ELITE and people were posting how long it took to get to their door. I remember people posting 8 hours from the time they ordered.

Don't want to hijack the thread but did Fonz ever post here? I see a lot of reference to Fonz and even some quotes but can't remember if they were quoted from this site or Elite. I would have loved to have been around during his hayday.Popichulo said:YEah I remember that people were all praising how quick it arrived and blah blah blah. Man I remember the days back at elite with Fonz and Natty and the rest of those guys.
NAH as far as I know Fonz never posted here, a lot of us left Elite back when the whole Platinum Membership crap started. I really havent been back over there since then maybe a few times just to look around. Anyways back to the point NOPE I have never seen a post from Fonz over here though.Fender said:Don't want to hijack the thread but did Fonz ever post here?
