In the world of bodybuilding competition diets, there are two big players. The first is Clenbuterol, an adrenergic agonist that stimulates the central nervous system to lose weight. The other, ECA, is a stack of ephedrine, aspirin, and caffeine, which work together to create a synergistic thermogenic effect in the body. Both are commonly used by bodybuilding, fitness, and figure competitors to lose body fat and maintain high energy levels when preparing for a contest.
Clenbuterol, or ‘clen’ for short, does several things. First of all, it increases blood pressure. Oxygen transport in the body is also increased. This means that a person who eats less food can suddenly do MORE cardio for longer periods of time. When using clen, the body burns protein and fat faster, so users should increase the level of these two macronutrients accordingly. Glycogen levels remain constant. Clen was originally designed as a bronchial aid for people with asthma who have trouble breathing. Its helpful side effects were quickly discovered. Some users report irregular heartbeats with this supplement, and it should never be consumed without a doctor’s approval. Clen can be accessed over the internet, but it is not for sale in the US. It is on the banned list for Olympia athletes, and while effective, it is often difficult to obtain.
ECA is a daily stack of aspirin, caffeine, and ephedrine. Ephedrine 25mg, aspirin 250mg, and caffeine 300mg, taken 1-2 times daily, has been shown to be remarkably effective in weight loss by both bodybuilding/fitness athletes and everyday people looking to lose some weight. pounds. Ephedra and caffeine create a synergistic effect in the body, much like Clenbuterol, raising blood pressure to increase oxygen transport in the blood. ECA users often experience increased energy levels, fat loss, and increased irritability. In the world of bodybuilding/fitness, ECAs have been used by dieting athletes for a decade, and its reputation is that of a highly effective agent.
When all is said and done, ECA is the last man standing. Considering its proven track record, the fact that it’s legal, and the fact that it’s so readily available, not to mention that it’s arguably more effective, allows the ECA stack to surpass Clenbuterol as the cutting agent of choice for users. bodybuilders. High level professional bodybuilders often “stack” the two, using ECA and clen together. This is a risky practice, as two blood pressure-raising agents at the same time can cause serious heart problems. Stick with one and do that RCT most of the time.
