Results & effectiveness
What changes did you notice while using this product?
The biggest benefit was maintaining my strength while dieting. Recovery also felt slightly better, and I was able to preserve most of my muscle mass despite being in a calorie deficit. I looked a little harder by the end of the cycle, but the visual changes were fairly subtle.

I experienced very mild suppression toward the end of the cycle, but no significant mood changes, sleep issues, or other noticeable side effects.
