ECA stack questions

[simsimma]

I also just purchased the eca stack but i had to buy all of it separately cause they dont selll it in one pill anymore and my the guy at this supplement place told me to take it in the morning 3x8mg ephedrine, 1xcaffeine pill, and 1x baby aspirin.

In the old days, we'd do this with a Primatene and two Excedrin.

Problem with the ECA stack is, prolonged use can lead -- I'd say "does lead" -- to mitral valve prolapse, a serious, permanent heart problem. Saw this in two guys I knew personally back when I was a full-time gym rat. Cycle it. Cycle it, cycle it, CYCLE IT. And work your ass off while you're cycling: get to your target weight fast and get the hell off it and never touch it again.

I cycled for 3 weeks on, 3 weeks off, for about six months. Recommendations vary, but one of the guys I knew who developed heart problems was doing 6-week cycles. If you have good medical insurance, it wouldn't hurt to tell a doctor what you're doing and get an ultrasound of your heart before and maybe at the 3-month mark if you're doing a 6-month cycle.
