This can have a positive
effect on workload capacity and anabolic drive as a thermogenic cocktail. It can promote fat burning while decreasing possible muscle
breakdown. I have used it quite extensively and know for an
absolute fact that the "stack" works far better on the anabolic diet
than on a regular carb-based diet.
First we know from the reference above, that carbs can negate the effect of caffeine, but on the anabolic diet we have an inherent need for free fatty acids for energy, and caffeine will increase these levels in the blood and thus will improve both workload capacity, fat burning capabilities, and spare muscle, but only on the anabolic diet will the effects of the caffeine in the stack be realized to its full potential.
This is not to say that if you are on a carb-based diet and use the stack that it won't work, because it will. What I am saying is that to get the most bang for your buck you have got to be on the anabolic diet -- period. As far as ephedrine is concerned, it is a drug. And what comes with all drugs is a note of caution. If you use the stack, make sure that you use it correctly, don't remain on it for extended periods of time, and make sure that you "can" take it. What I mean is this.
If you have a heart condition, high blood pressure, etc. this is not going to be something to play around with so don't! On the other hand, it works VERY WELL, and if you can take it, and want an overall more intense workout with energy to spare + increased fat burning capabilities by all means take it. But do so at your own risk. Ephedrine may be banned from over-the-counter sale by the FDA. If it is, ephedrine can be found in its herbal form under the name ma huang.
