Been working out for a lot of years, getting big...I weigh 215lbs and can bench 310lbs..never been stronger. I have cycled off/on ephedrine-caffeine for years now. I take it for that energy blast to work out, taking 24mg Ephedrine and 400mg caffeine about 45 min prior to working out. I have cycled off and on, sometimes for 6 months. lately I find that the EC stack does nothing...like I mean, I don't feel a thing!
Is it time for a change? Should I be doing something different? Suggestions...thanks. :whip:

He's not asking what it is, galileo. He's saying that he's used it a lot and cycled it, and it no longer is as effective for providing a quick energy boost.

In any event, you can try L-Tyrosine/Caffeine stack. Black Star Labs (http://www.blackstarlabs.com) has a product called Go! that gets talked about a lot and has good reviews with respect to energy boost w/ no crash.

True - Shao-LiN, thanks...I know that the ECA topic has been beaten to death, I just wonder what other successes people have had when they find that ECA no longer is effective. Am I the only one? Or I assume that eventually most people will build a tolerance to ECA. I am in Canada and I searched my local SND shop for L-Tyrosine, perhaps it is not available in Canada?

People build tolerances to its stimulatory effects, but the efficacy of the ECA stack increases with chronic/prolonged usage.

Well, I just have a quick question about the E/C stack. I wanna lose 20 - 25 lbs and I just got a bottle of Ephedrine and I am gonna get some caffeine pills here when it gets in, but how many per day should I do it?

Also, should I take the caffeine pills eachtime I take the Ephedrine or what?


Thanks.

ECA stacks are all to often used as a replacement for a good diet.
This inevitably leads to failure to lose weight.

Undereating is another big culprit.

I recommend tracking your diet and addressing nutrition (if you haven't already)

I have a good diet, it is goin well, I just wanted an extra boost and have heard great things about the E/C Stack.


I am just wondering how much I should start with.


The Pills have 25mg of Ephedrine in them and I would get 200mg caffeine pills. Should I Just take 1 every 4 hours like the bottle says or what?

25mg Ephedrine/200mg Caffeine - 2-3 times a day.

I got some ephedrine online or I thought I did, but you have to send them your ID and Social Security card(photocopies), and I dont really trust that.

But I got 374 pills for 39.99 plus shipping. Each pill has 25mg of Ephedrine. So it is cheap, you just gotta build your own.

That's a complete scam. Do not send that information to anyone!

Thanks man, I just ordered two bottles. Now all I gotta do is just get 200mg caffeine pills and start them when they get here. Those are cheap enough. Thanks a lot for your help.

I just started an ECA stack as well. I was told to try to get the Ephedrine HCL with low doses of Guaifenesin in it due to it giving you gas and cramps. I saw the 39.95 Ephedrine from dnepharm.com as Regenvelc mentioned, which is 25mg of just Ephedrine HCL. I went to 7-11 and got some of the small packets of Ephedrine HCL 25mg/Guaifenesin 200mg as well as a few packets of 357 magnums (200mg Caffeine) to try out first. I got like 2 weeks worth for about $5 and a bottle of asprin 325mg for .99. So far, neither me or my wife (who is doing the ECA as well) have experienced either gas or cramps. I would suggest trying that route to see if you need to get it without the Guaifenesin or not. Good luck with the stack.

Yeah, I ended up getting the Vaspro HCL stuff, that place with the 374 count wanted my ID and Social Security card photocopied to them, which I called and cancelled my order.


I am gonna pick up some magnums from the corner store here when my Vaspro gets in.

It hasn't messed with me doing cardio. It has given me more energy which makes it easier for me. If you start feeling unsure about it just stop taking it. Don't push yourself if anything feels wrong.
