      I'm not sure if HMB was just a newer supplement when this video was made, or if the price came down dramatically, but it seems like with bulk supplements, leucine is significantly more expensive. HMB is 300 capsules/ 150 servings at 1g for $22, vs leucine 300 capsules is 30 servings, for $20, but the serving is 5g.
      What would you recommend, or should I be looking elsewhere?

      This statement is 100% FALSE!!! Stop with the lies!! You are just trying get more views.
      Ask yourself this question.... if HMB is stronger then Steroids then why do Athletes and Bodybuilders take Steroids over HMB???
      I will answer for you..... become there is nothing stronger than Steroids!!!

    Excellent video Thomas. Obviously this isn’t something that you can take when you’re fasting because it will spike your insulin and break your fast. But as a carpenter he takes wear and tear on the body. I would recommend taking this in the morning before you start work or at least by lunch. Catabolism in the muscle and maybe take two more grams before a workout.
    It’s all about the Preservation of muscle. When you’re not benefiting from the elevated human growth hormone from fasting.
    You’re a wonderful teacher thank you !

      Tell me about it, the VA is my healthcare provider and they have an absolute war on "steroids." They do not even want to prescribe prednisone when I have a bad outbreak of hives from being in the sun too long. Even T for low T they make near impossible to get. It is so bad that I am continuing my TRT from sources off the net. I have to pay out of pocket but it is better than dealing with government doctors who do what bureaucrats tell them policy is rather than what is best for the patients. I imagine insurance gives doctors a lot of the same pressure and it is all about $$$$$$$.

    My go to supplements were HMb, CLA and creatine. Use these three with clean food and aminos and you will have a more defined muscle mass.
    All of these supplements I prefer are safe as long as you follow the recommended servings and you can take more depending on your growth.

    Just to let everyone know (bc 99% of the fitness community doesn't know this): Rodent studies with regards to metabolism/microbiome/nutrition in general have absolutely zero correlation to humans because their digestion system and metabolism are inherently far too different to provide any value. Just thought you guys should know and not base decisions off of rat studies. Worth noting that anything related to neurobiology with rats is very valuable so not all rat studies are equal.

    I’ve used HMB before and now just got on it again and recently I’ve had joint pain from working out 4 days a week and training jiujitsu. My experience is my joint pain started to go away literally and I don’t mean to post this just to talk but I mean it literally went away the first day I got back on HMB ( no joke ) I take muscle tech HMB it’s a great product. I was also feeling like I wasn’t recovering fully as of late due to all my training. Now I feel fantastic it’s what I really needed. I did research the first time I got on it just to make sure I wasn’t harming my own health taking it. I’m 47 years old and seeing the positive research made me want to use it and I have no regrets. I highly recommend it. Even if you don’t believe me try to research it first and have your own assumptions.

It literally disappeared the next day. I do get muscle fatigue which prevents me from training everyday but the soreness is minimal even after a very hard work out. The other side effect I noticed is that I'm constantly hungry, famished in fact.

      Organic hexane free castor oil pack on your liver while you sleep. Add a little castor oil to the cloth every couple days. (You’ll have to apply cellophane wrap over the cloth to minimize the mess, and wear an old shirt.) Do it every night, with a heat pack for a month and see how you feel. A little DMSO on your liver before the castor oil is even more effective.
      Also, take a supplement like NAC and/or TMG to increase glutathione.
      To assist your kidneys with the chemo dissolve 1/4 teaspoon baking soda in 6oz water and take it 1-2 x day between meals.

Not using technical names just knowing A1 A2 B1 B2 B3. This will help you to how to get to your goal. You can target them better. Also there are different systems to achieve the objective you want. Your muscles have a mind of thier own you can make them do what you want if you train them like a dog to behave, and they will obey. PS. There are percentages involved here as well like 30 to 40% targets the A muscles. Say you can lift a 100 lbs, then 30 to 40 pounds would hit these muscles with at least 20 to 30 reps. for one to to two sets. The B muscles would be 70 to 80%. The high B brut strength ones would be 85 to 90%. These all take time to work up to. Healing time can be different for each one and there is different reps as well, including sets.

      @@Person19943 Sorry you didn't get results. Look for an acid free supplement instead of a calcium salt if you really are looking to prevent damage. Otherwise, it's not a necessary supplement by any means if you're just a weightlifter.

      Both creatine and Hmb were considered one ofthe best natural stacks back in the 90's when they came out ... in a way at that time hmb was considered a superb addon / stack for creatine .. i used them both along with every other suplement pretty much so safety wisw for sure its ok and i really did feel like hmb took me up another level like creatine had when that first came out as well.. so def try it out they both been around over 25 years now that alone speaks volume

      HMB have diminishing return gains depending on your experience. On some studies they saw profesional athletes didn't see much improvements, if any, in muscle mass/body composition, while on other studies less trained/experienced people gained more mass than those who only took placebo when working out

      Real hmb should not cause any kind of stomach distress at all. I ran into a lot of products that say they were hm because they were cheap and some of them were just lysine powder! That can cause some pretty bad stomach problems! A lot of times supplements are loaded with ammonia too and that's what causes the real stomach issues. You should be able to take 10 g of hmb and not even do so much as burp if it's real! Honestly the good stuff is usually a little expensive!
