This thread is intended to highlight some interesting observations i made using HOT-ROX. I took a 7-site Skinfold test on the 15th january. (after xmas)
Taking into account i had a clean diet and was back in training full swing after the xmas (a couple days of excess calories not ‘bad eating’) In the two weeks after xmas I didnt lose a single pound. Weight remained unchanged. As did my appearance.
The results of the skinfold on 15th Jan are below.

Weight (kg) 74.30
Body Density 1.0887
Fat Mass (kg) 4.13
Lean Body Mass (kg) 70.17
% Body Fat 5.55
Notice the reasonably similar skinfolds on all sites bar abdominal and thigh. . .now i know your initial response could be ‘this is probably because there wasnt enough fat in other area’s blablabla’ but i have had plenty of skinfolds done before and have gotton much lower scores on ALL sites but never got below 7mm for the abdominal skinfold no matter how lean the rest of my body was that was always the last to go. . .
Dont expect any replies or anything just thought it was interesting. . .
I’ve used it, I bought it at GNC b/c I had a gift card…I heard that stuff might have weaker potency than buying it direct but I don’t really see how that could be true.
I liked it though, I’m sure it helped but I was dieting and training in a new way at the time which makes it hard to highlight the efficiency of any product. I did like the feeling it gave me though and probably will use it in the future…I may even order to tomorrow…to help me get really super uber lean.

its good alright. . made losing BF well easy!
you should give it a go. . yea buy it tomorrow you wont regret it!
HRX is great; considering you have a good diet and DO CARDIO.
its not something i’d stay on for a long period of time. I’m about 2 weeks away from finishing my 3rd month, plan to take a while off. I don’t see a need for it in my training for the rest of the year.

The retail version of HOT-ROX is actually an older formulation, and not nearly as strong as the current HOT-ROX Extreme that you can purchase in the T-Nation store.
HRX is a good bit stronger than the previous formula, Maximum Strength HOT-ROX, which was a stronger version of what they ship retail.
I was reading how some folks in the Physique Clinics are taking 4 a day.
Isn’t that a high dosage?
maybe this is the wrong thread for this.
Sorry Bryan!
I take 4 caps/day, Cricket. Two upon waking, about 45 minutes before my proteinated instant coffee, and then two more around noontime.
It’s not necessary to cycle it, unless you simply want to give your body a break, or you decide to take another supp. that might contradict it.[/quote]
Thank you Abigail!
so you take it on an empty stomach both times? Is it 20-minutes before eating or 20-minutes after?

Yep – empty stomach. I always take it before a meal, rather than after.
Drink plenty of water with it. And I wouldn’t go any longer than 45 minutes before chasing it with a shake or food.

4 a day’s the proper dose [or rather the highest recommended dose]. I took 6 a day while following Get Shredded, purusant to Berardi’s recommendations. 9 regular HOT-ROX or 6 HRX. Good stuff. I did indeed get shredded. No ill effects.
