It is common knowledge that more testosterone will result in an increase in muscle mass if you follow a proper diet and exercise program. Increasing testosterone is the whole idea behind anabolic steroids. The reason is that testosterone is responsible for muscle growth and an increase in the hormone provides an anabolic environment.

Prohormones

Prohormones, namely Androstendione were made famous in 1998 by St. Louis Cardinals slugger Mark McGwire. McGwire admitted to using Andro during his historic 1998 season in which he shattered the Major League Baseball home run record. I was in search of a powerful anabolic agent but I am not ready to use steroids because I am still too young so I was a candidate for prohormones.

The problem with prohormones such as Androstendione and 4-AD is that they aromatize easily and with that comes the side effects of anabolics. You lose your hair, grow unwanted facial and body hair and you get gynecomastia. Due to these unwanted side effects, companies are searching for safer ways to increase testosterone and make better prohormones. Muscle Tech claims to have found one in Acetabolan-II. After extensive research of the ingredients in the supplement, I decided to give it a try. Bodybuilding.com has a great deal on Acetabolan-II and I highly recommend that you buy it from the Bodybuilding.com store because they have great deals and delivery was on time.

Now on to the question that you are undoubtedly asking, does Acetabolan-II work? I will give you my experience. The recommended cycle is 8 weeks but I only did 2 weeks because I wanted to minimize any side effects, if any that would occur and I am not turning 19 until December and prohormones are only recommended for those over 18. Here is what I experienced while on Acetabolan-II.

Working Out

I work out with weights four days a week and I only took the supplement on these days as recommended by Muscle Tech. The bottle says to take it an hour before working out on an empty stomach but I found that there was no difference in the effectiveness of the product regardless of whether I took it an hour before or right before a workout. The only thing that you have to make sure is that you take it either on an empty stomach or 1 to 1 ? hours before or after eating because the consumption of calcium will block the effects of Acetabolan-II due to the fact that it contains Zinc Tech (more commonly known as ZMA).

I found that I was able to significantly increase the weight lifted in my workouts every time that I hit them. I am talking a 10 to 20 pound increase every session which for me was unheard of. I was also able to lift heavy every time I hit the weights. Those of you familiar with my routine know that I lift chest, biceps and triceps twice a week. I train them heavy early in the week and them go lighter later in the week, focusing on shaping the muscle. With Acetabolan-II I was able to follow the same routine but I was able to workout on the lighter days with the same amount of weight that I used on the heavy day for that week. Before I used the supplement, I had to decrease the weight by 10 pounds or so because my muscles were still a bit fatigued from the heavy workout earlier in the week.

My recovery time was improved and I was also able to have intense workout sessions even on days when I did not have an adequate nights sleep. I had a late Thursday night one week but I was still able to blast my chest and triceps with the same weight and rest time that I used on my heavy day on Tuesday. All of this while on 5 to 6 hours of sleep. Usually when I sleep this little, I am dead and have no energy to complete an intense workout. I usually drag through a workout and get very little out of it.

Another positive was the fact that I was able to maintain all of my gains even when I lifted weights in the morning and our baseball coaches made us run wind sprints for 2 hours straight. I was very afraid that I would lose muscle due to all of this running because I have in the past but thanks to the Acetabolan-II I was able to keep all of my hard-earned muscle despite of the running.

The Acetabolan-II also decreased my body fat. When I started taking the supplement, I was at 7.2% body fat but while on the supplement, my body fat was about 6.3%. I looked very hard and ripped which pleased me so this is a great product to take pre-contest. It will make you look very solid while adding some muscle mass. I gained about 2 pounds of lean muscle mass while on Acetabolan-II which translates into about a pound a week average.

Side Effects

All of this didn't come without a price however. Don't worry though, you are not going to get gyno from this product but I did notice an increase in acne both on my face and back along with an increase in hair growth both on my body and face. These only make sense because testosterone is responsible for the growth of hair along with acne. Also, about 1 in 10 people will get some gastrointestinal distress from the Tribulus Terrestrias found in Acetabolan-II. Unfortunately I was on of the unlucky 10%. I did have an awful lot of diarrhea and my stomach ached when I took the supplement but this was a minor price to pay. I did not like the increased acne and hair but I did receive many benefits from the product that made me happy.

Muscle Tech claims that Acetabolan-II will increase muscle mass, improve strength, decrease recovery time and shed unwanted body fat. They claim that Aaron Maddron gained 8 pounds of lean muscle after only a month. After my experience with the product, I found that Acetabolan-II did in fact increase lean muscle mass as I put on 2 pounds while reducing my body fat from 7.2% to as low as 6.3%. It also helped me to add a significant amount of weight to each workout and allowed me to lift a body part heavy twice a week as opposed to only once. The gains in lean mass were not as dramatic as Aaron Maddron but there was an increase so overall I am happy with Acetabolan-II by Muscle Tech.

I would recommend that you try the product but only if you are over the age of 18 and have been lifting for at least 2 years. Until then use a diet high in protein and add creatine if you have been lifting for a year or more. I would also recommend using creatine while on Acetabolan-II although I did not. Take the Acetabolan-II before your workout and the creatine immediately after your workout. Also, only take the Acetabolan-II on your weight training days. This product can also be useful for maintaining muscle while on a cutting diet and performing cardio.

I highly recommend that you give this product a try if you are a hard training individual over the age of 18.
