X Factor, what do yall think so faR?

[mckinzie_rose]

Im thinking about getting some. Have yall seen any results from it?

Would it be ok to stack it with my current stack? Nitrix, Cellmass, and Muscle Milk? What exactly does it do?

[ghostwheel]

That depends which side of the iron curtain you are on.

It is a fatty acid of some type. It is supposed to increase muscle inflammation and soreness over a few weeks. I have no opinion on it at all. Some have suggested that taking a system wide inflammatory agent might have side effects. I don't know about that but read the label for contraindications carefully.

Several other people on this board are in the process of doing tests for themselves and you can ask them when they finish.

Just search for the X-factor threads.

Myself I pass on this one but many here have tried it.

The stuff has landed me on Metronidazole & nurofen, as It has given me the worst dental paine in my life. One morning I woke up and my face was so inflamed my wife thought I had been hit with a baseballbat, I blame X-Factor for my abses, I do not recomend.

Is that what the dentist said it was from. Abses from X-factor what was the connection.

This is more of a learning question for me

I did half a cycle (didnt finish due to personal reasons) and gained 5lbs off that, and my diet wasnt even that great. It made me sore as hell though and gave me painful headaches

Ill probaly do a full cycle down the road :)

[snakemw]

i did it and loved it. i had to cut my cycle short a couple of days but i did a log on it.

[garb]

i gained about 5 pounds on a 22 day cycle, i liked it a lot and im probobly gona do a full 50 in the new year. i cut my cycle short because i had my wisdom teeth pulled......not so fun. i was couch ridden for a week and a half and my face ballooned to an extreme. i didnt feel like finishing the rest of the cycle but i recomend trying it for yourself

[wedgylx]

I ran a 50 day cycle but didnt get the results most people write about. Oh well, some people seem to be getting good gains, guess its hit or miss

Was the wisdom tooth operation made neccesary by an abcess around the tooth? This seems similiar to the above poster, vikingsfitness, although you may not have connected the infection to Xfactor at the time. I only mention it because two people posted dental problems while on X factor in this thread. Could be a coincidence, or maybe not.

Sounds to me like I made a good decision to pass on Xfactor myself.

no not at all ghost......the dentist told me way back in february that i was going to have my teeth pulled. we waited untill summer so that i didnt miss any school becuase of the operation. i had set the date for my teeth to be pulled on aughust 21. i totally forgot about the date untill i was about two and a half weeks into my x-factor. so i decided to continue to use it untill the operation, then i would just stop it.

the x-factor had nothing to do with my teeth being pulled what so ever

[max von]

Well I am glad to hear that

[ghostwheel]

Me too.

Only one dental problem then possibly related to Xfactor on this thread.

Us "old folks" learn to be careful and wary about stuff we put in our body because the older we get , the more we realize : We are mortal! (eek!)

I agree that it is a very solid product. I would stack it with another CEE type product for added effects. I would not stack with a NO product, as I found that the pumps were to intense for me and made workouts kinda tough

[dogon]

I had great results when I tried it. I wasn't bulking while on it tho so my weight went down instead of up. Here's my final stats... My review can be found here as well. Hope it'll help you some.

Measurements:
Chest: Before 43 After 45.5 (2.5 inches)
Waist: Before 40 After 39 (-1 inch)
L. Bicep: Before 16.25 After 17 (3/4 inch)
R. Bicep: Before 16.5 After 17 (1/2 inch)
L. Quad: Before 25 After 27.5 (2.5 inches)
R. Quad: Before 25.5 After 28 (2.5 inches)
Calves: Before 16.5 After 17 (1/2 inch)
BF%: Before 18% After 15.9% (2.1 % decrease)

Gains:
My biggest gains came in legs. I went up 90lbs with equal reps on squat. DB Flat Bench went up 20lbs per DB with equal reps. Barbell Incline went up 40lbs. Tricep Machine went up 90lbs. (Triceps were another area I feel I had really big gains in.) Barbell Curl went up 40lbs. Calve raises went up 70lbs as well as leg extension up 70lbs and leg curls up 60.

The only sides I experienced was soreness. That only last about the first few weeks tho and then I couldn't even tell I was on the product as far as sides. The pumps were wonderful tho and strength increased every workout.

awesome product i noticed no side effects

it was agrivating because i couldnt have fish which i absolutly adore but the gains i felt were great

obviously the product increases soreness so thats something you have to be ready for but i got used to it in a week, it wasnt painful by any means but its just felt like i was over training (muscle soreness wise)

overall id say great for a non hormonal
