Timing of Clenbuterol

Hey Buds
My training partner is preparing for a competition in the middle of May. The advice that he has recieved thus far from a buddy that has competed nationally is to take the Clenbuterol first thing in the morning. Now this is great for when he is doing cardio in the morning but he splits and does weights in the mid-afternoon with me and is extremely tired. The semi-pro bases his recommendation on the fact that he works nights, comes home and sleeps, eats, and a couple hours later goes and does weights and cardio in the same time slot. This doesn't work for my training partner. He does 3 days a week cardio first thing in the am and then leaves for work and then comes back to train with me 4 days a week in the afternoons. Any suggestions when best to take the Clen?
Marty

I don't think taking clen in the afternoon will help much. If anything he may; have a harder time sleeping. He could try it. More likely it's his diet and lifestyle that is effecting him right now.

hmmmmmmmmmm I have used the pills (IN MY PAST). But I spread it out over most of the day. Taking my last one no later than 3pm. If I take one later than that...I am having issues later trying to sleep. And I could only take like 5 a day. got up to 6 and I would get a headache from hell. So I back off and stay at 5

Same here, when I used to use it I would try to take my total by lunch time because of sleep issues. But, I don't think it matters much for effectiveness because it has such a long half life.

Ok...I'll give you my advice on "my" trials with clen. I'm one of those people that can sleep on just about anything. I used to take it throughout the hole day up to 6 a day before the show. I personally don't like taking it any more as I got older because of what it would do to my heart. I'm a paramedic and I have the ability to put myself on a 12 lead EKG when ever I want. Everytime I took the clen I would have the shakes and palpitations like you wouldn't believe. So for shits and grins, I put myself on the monitor....I put myself into a junctional rhythm. Meanning that my atria was not firing when my heart contracted. (gave me an abnormal heart beat) Sounds crazy but my days with clen are now offically over. I will stick to diet, ephedrine, T3, and DNP.....HAHAHA..........I know! DNP?? Yes....I haven't been on the monitor to see the effects of that yet, but I'll let ya know. I just know that "my" heart doesn't like the clen anymore. Good luck Guys....That's just my deal with this drug.
