Typically an ECA stack consists of 20mg Ephedrine/200 mg caffeine, and 15 mg of salicin (a precursor to aspirin, or equivalent to about 1 aspirin). However, if you are making your own ECA stack, the aspirin is not necessary.

To assess your tolerance to the stack, take 10mg ephedrine/100mg caffeine twice a day (upon awaking, and again in early afternoon. After about a week or so bump it up to 20/200 twice a day. Some folks take it three times per day, I myself only take two doses per day.

Or you could simply purchase some Xenadrine, or Ripped Fuel, and follow the directions.

A search will pull up numerous threads on the topic.

I use 25E 200mgC, no A. preworkout only. A is good if your really obese, take a 81mg baby aspirin if you want it. I never noticed a difference when I had the A or not. I only use Preworkout.

I take 2 RF's in the morning, 2 in the evening, and 1 at night. Each time is 4:30 apart. I know if helps, but I don't feel the Side Effects anymore.

Just Curious....
How long before bed are you taking the 1 RF at night?

Depends. On days where I wake up @ 8:30, I take the first 2 then, 2nd 2 at 5, and the last one at 9:30. If I wake up later, I shift it accordingly.

I don't have the sleep problems some people attest too though. In fact, I'm out as soon as my head hits the pillow regardless of what I do.
