Oh boy, someone doesn‘t know the (fucking obvious) rule that you’re not allowed to edit quoted posts…….He changed my name to Sally.

Okey, warning taken but I am not sure what you know truly mean. I do not play dumb maybe I am dumb but no I did not know how things work. Yes I figured it now when I tried out and 'reply' button does the job so I was lazy and assumed too much but did not purposedly twist names but used copy paste and wrote names manually on my post.Don't play dumb.

Right. On the other hand fasting should deplete glucose and glutamine while simultaneously supressing igf-1 and insulin which carry them onto cells. So when most cancers heavily rely on glucose and glutamine preventing their transport should be very effective cancer prevention. That combined with increased autophagy can do very beneficial things and cancer cells in general die much sooner than normal cells when depleted from nutrients. By the time your ego feels like you are starving/dying cancer cells have propably been long gone. They are not so resistant to starvation as normal cells.I don't think personally excessive fasting has these magic anti cancer properties you have read it does. In my opinion a regular cutting diet or psmf is more healthy than extreme fasting.

If he did actually “re-type” all of those post… that’s some dedication right there.Ahh now I feel like a little narc bitch...
For the record he didnt change the text of what I said, that very easily could have been a typo - ie jittery fingers from the clen
Got any literature to back any of this up?Yes, it was typo accident.
Anyway, I started to think that actually combining low dose (or micro doses) of beta-antagonists with clenbuterol might prevent tolerance build up and extend the time it works effectively. Has anyone tried?
As it is quite universal phenomenon (at least to my limited knowledge) that substances at about 1/10th of their minimal therapeutic dose (either agonist or antagonist) exhibit reverse actions and act opposite to what they are mento to. Like ex. low dose or ultra low dose naltrexone increases opioid receptor sensitivity and pain tolerance and same with flumazenil regarding benzodiazepine receptors. And ex. Morphine if given micro doses actually worsens pain and works more like antagonist. Same principle seems to apply to many other substances or in general biological systems.
Also there is ex. Oxytrex which combains ultra low dose naltrexone with oxycontin and that combination effectively prevents tolerance development and agonist actions of oxy remain constant without need to increase dosage.
So if this is truly some universal phenomenom in biological systems then one could speculate that by using low doses or ultra low doses of beta2-antagonist concomitantly with clenbuterol or other beta-agonist it could possibly prevent tolerance development by sensitizing receptors enough without counteracting the effects of agonist to any significant degree.
I have used bisoprolol and propranolol with clenbuterol now and at least my doses of clen have been the same since I started it and it seems that there is no need to increase dosage because it is still working very well at the same dose after two weeks of use.
Maybe something like 0.1-1mg propranolol used 3-6 times a day could upregulate adrenergic receptors enough to prevent tolerance build up to agonist without inhibiting agonistic actions to any significant degree (like it is with flumazenil or ultra low dose naltrexone combined with agonists/opioids or benzos when they actually enhance the effectiviness of those agonist compounds).
At least beta-antagonists at normal therapeutic doses upregulate receptors in ex. heart tissue so at least in theory one could suppose ultra low doses does that too but without the inhibiting effects to agonistic ligands. Have to try this more and play with different doses of beta-antagonists with clen to find out if this adaptation and sensitazing of the system with ultra low doses truly is the case with adrenergic system too.

Pharmacology of beta-blockers: classical aspects and recent developments - PubMed

They differ, however, in additional pharmacological properties, such as beta1/beta2-selectivity ratios, presence or absence of intrinsic sympathomimetic activity (ISA), and/or local...pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
β-blockers Reverse Agonist-Induced β2-AR Downregulation Regardless of Their Signaling Profile
"Treatment with catecholamines causes β2-AR downregulation. To obtain the maximal receptor downregulation, HEK 293 cells stably expressing the N-terminus-FLAG-tagged β2-AR were incubated in the presence of 1 μM isoproterenol, a synthetic β-AR agonist catecholamine, at 37 °C per 3 h according to a previous study [14]. Approximately 40% of β2-ARs were downregulated in response to isoproterenol stimulation, but, upon adding of β-blockers, internalized receptors completely recycled back to the plasma membrane (Figure 2A). All the tested β-blockers showed equal efficacy in restoring receptor density regardless of their ancillary pharmacological properties."

β-Blockade in Heart Failure: Basic Concepts and Clinical Results
"Although β-blocking agents without ISA would appear to have several advantages, such agents generally lead to an increase in the number and density of β-adrenergic receptors following short-term and long-term use. The significance of such upregulation is unknown. Although early studies suggested that upregulation helped to mediate the benefits of β-blockers in heart failure,[35]recent observations suggest that upregulation may be disadvantageous, because an increase in receptor density may limit the degree of sympathetic antagonism. Furthermore, β-receptor upregulation is believed to be responsible for the rebound phenomena that have been reported following the abrupt withdrawal of β-blockers in patients with ischemic heart disease"

"Propranolol (Prop) antagonized the antidepressant-like effects of clenbuterol (Clen) and dobutamine (Dob), but not that of desipramine (Des), in the forced-swim test in wild-type mice. Propranolol (2.5 mg/kg, i.p.) was given 15 min before clenbuterol (0.5 mg/kg, i.p.)"
So about 5x dose of propranolol to clen seems to be approximately enough to antagonize its effects. That would mean 0.2mg of propranolol could antagonize 40ug clen but in my experience it needs to be a little bit higher. But based on studies and my own experiences I would say doses of 0.1-10mg taken at evening _might_ sensitize receptors enough and because of propranolol's short half-life (4-5h) and clenbuterol's long half-life if that low or ultra low dose of propranolol is taken only before bed its antagonizing effects are by morning mostly gone while clen is still high and what remains is that micro dose of antagonist circulating through the day and possibly sensitizing body to effects of clen without dumping its effects.
Or actually propranolol at micro doses might work as a fat burner (by similar logic as how naltrexone works for endorfins/pain or flumazenil to gaba density) by upregulating receptors but allowing adrenaline and other cathecholamines to work even more efficiently during the day. And also benefit is that you can sleep much better with clen with even those very low doses.
Oh, I will need to check that tomorrow. It was one doctor who spoke about that issue. Now I need to go to sleep; I will find it for you tomorrow.Anything in there about the 1/10 dose stuff you were talking about
Here is link for Oxytrex which utilizes that kind of principle of using ultra low dose naltrexone with oxycontin. Allthough the naltrexone dose is only 2-4ug when doses that act as an antagonist are usually in mg range but minimal antagonist dose of naltrexone which could cause withdrawals if one is addict is somewhere at 200ug, so that is basically the minimum working dose. So that 2-4ug it would then be more close to 1/50-1/100th of a dose but maybe the scale is more broader than 1/10 and can vary between 1/10 to 1/1000th or something but that doctor maybe generalized it to be usually approximately at about 1/10th.Anything in there about the 1/10 dose stuff you were talking about

Thank you for resoponses.
No, I do not believe like that. I know some muscle will be burnt. But I agree walking might not be the best. Maybe only gym couple times a week.
Well you should say that earlier. Now solution is simple as f… 500 mg test plus a lot of protein and carbs low fat. You will regain all you lost so by increasing muscles you will loose bf just by changing ratio of tissue in your body plus regained tissue will speed up metabolism.

I am not really obese at all and have not talked&asked about this before. The thing is, that I have history of bodybuilding/strength training and was in my best at quite low body fat at about 240lbs/110kg. Broblem was that at some years ago I got interested in spiritual things but eventually my search and study of God/consciousness caused me quite severe depression for two years. That caused me to stop training totally, lost motivation to eat and do things and was in sickleave. So I lost both muscle and fat very much because of that, little bit more muscle, but in no way I am now obese but I am just a skinnier and little bit fatter version of my old self at about (weight before this fast) 85kg/190lbs and about 15% bodyfat (at 6 feet). So when I started to recover from my depression I got again motivation and energy to start training and eating but after training for a while I just decided I need to loose this extra fat first asap (partly because of health reasons) and then build muscle. I wanted to do it also because I wanted to get rid off sick cells/possible cancer cells and clean my body and lower my blood pressure etc (which actually went down to 120/72 after starting this fast even though I stopped all my three blood pressure medicines except bisoprolol&propranolol at night). But no obesity here.
Good advice. I might change to that in few days.
Yes, I might start that (or PSMF) in few days. What is that more extreme version like?
And thanks for reminding me yohimbine. That might be a good addition. Does topical yohimbine skin cream work? I think I will also increase test dose and see what it does in these conditions. Doesn't testosterone (or AAS in general) increase adrenergic receptor sensitivity in tissues? So increasing dose might boost effectivines of clen and speed up fat loss and inhibit muscle breakdown more and body would be forced to breakdown more other useless tissues including senescent/pathological cells?
Might be, but on the other hand phenomenom has been noted quite generally with many neurotransmitter systems.Uh ok. Seems like an ultra specific use and moa
