During a cycle of steroids or prohormones this has been shown to result in a reduction of total muscle mass gained and total fat mass lost as the body up-regulates production of both enzymes and hormones meant to re-achieve the delicate balance it so greatly desires. After a cycle, when anabolic aids are discontinued, matters are even worse! This is because the body will now be in a state completely opposite of what bodybuilders so greatly covet, with androgens on the low side and two of the most feared hormones in the bodybuilding world on the high side... estrogen and cortisol! Just saying those two words can make any dedicated athlete's skin crawl, and send shivers up the spine! Unless you've been living in a cave lifting boulders instead of weights, you know that too much estrogen can make you fatter, more watery, provide you a reason to purchase a bra, and shut down the HPTA to a large degree. Cortisol is no bargain either, as an overabundance of this hormone can cause muscle loss, strength decreases, impaired mental function, fat gain, and more. Hmmm, it may just be really important to control those two hormones, don't ya think?
The Great News
Well, have no fear my fellow iron-freaks and athletic overachievers because ALRI has now unleashed our best yet estrogen crippling, cortisol smashing supplement the world has ever witnessed! It's called Impact Ultra, an Integrated Matrix for Advanced Post Cycle Therapy, and it is the only weapon you will need to keep your endocrine system "wired" just the way you need it for maximum lean mass and strength retention both within and after a cycle! In the war on estrogen and cortisol, consider Impact Ultra your stealth bomber!! We experienced such great success with the original Impact that we just had to keep pushing for better! Yup, Impact Ultra. The new Impact Ultra matrix is now a specific combination of Four radically potent synergistic compounds, each with a vital and unique role in keeping you in an anabolic state long even after you have completed a cycle of AAS or prohormones. Yes, this means you can gain lean muscle and lose fat even without prosteroids! Let's take a look at each compound individually in order to give you some insight as to why Impact Ultra has become the "must-have" product for anyone serious about building freaky muscle and hitting low single digit bodyfat levels...
1 Formestane (the aromatase annihilator):
Aromatase is the pain in the neck enzyme that grabs a hold of testosterone and other androgens and converts them into estrogen. The more this goes on in your body the less beneficial androgens you will have for muscle building, and the more estrogen you will have to make you look just a bit more like your little sister! Formestane is what is known as a "suicide inhibitor" of aromatase, which means it will irreversibly bind to the aromatase enzyme and permanently "put that sucka out of business!" In fact, it has been shown to inhibit 91.9% of aromatase enzyme production. Cool stuff, huh? Well, it doesn't stop there! Not enough? How about the fact that while several other popular estrogen inhibitors, including Nolvadex and Arimidex, decrease levels of one of the most powerful muscle building hormones in the body, IGF-1, Formestane actually increases it by 26%! You just gotta have this stuff now, right? Just give me another minute to tell you a few other tidbits about Formestane cause this stuff is truly "off the chain!"
* It increases HPTA activity similar to HCG and Clomid combined, without the negative effects of either drug! And in addition has been shown to continue to increase HPTA activity above natural levels even after 22 weeks of continuous use. Yes, this means more naturally produced testosterone!
* It decreases the number of progesterone receptors, which inhibits "trenbolone/deca-dick" type side effects and increases fat loss. (Yes, better sex drive too). Why focus on performance unless you are able to perform? It increases IGF-1 production as much as 26%
* It decreases Steroid Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) by 34%, meaning there is that much more free testosterone/androgens flowing through your veins for enhanced anabolic activity naturally!
* It inhibits DHT formation and activity.
So, as you can see, Formestane is one kick-ass compound! And while this alone would be an awesome in cycle or post cycle product all on it's own, Author L. Rea wanted to leave no doubt that Impact Ultra is unquestionably the most freakishly potent product of it's kind on the market. That is precisely why they added the two following awesome compounds to this highly advanced matrix...
#2 Phosphatidylserine:
(the cortisol crusher)
As most of you know, steroids and prohormones help you get bigger and stronger by up-regulating anabolic processes within the body. They aid greatly in tipping the scales in our favor in terms of protein synthesis vs protein degradation. However, what you may not know is how "anti-catabolic" steroids and prohormones are as well. Simply put, this means they can also block some of the nasty effects of cortisol, a hormone which I mentioned earlier can rob you of hard-earned muscle tissue. A major problem occurs once a cycle of steroids or PH's has been completed, in that the very compounds that were keeping cortisol at bay have now been removed from the picture, and just at a time when the body is looking to re-achieve the balance between testosterone and cortisol that it so badly desires. So here's the ugly scenario; your body wants more cortisol, so it enhances production of a hormone called adrenocorticotropin, or ACTH, which in turn triggers the adrenal cortex to pour out more cortisol. You no longer are taking steroids or PH's, so not only will your body have less androgens, but more muscle-wasting cortisol screaming through your veins! The result is a bodybuilder's worst nightmare, as you will now be in a state where protein breakdown is exceeding protein synthesis, which means only one thing... bye bye muscle!
Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a phospholipid with several important roles within the body, especially within nerve cells. Ok, great, so what does that have to do with cortisol? Well, what if I told you that several scientific studies have verified that PS can actually blunt ACTH and cortisol output...and not just a little... by as much as 30-40%! And not only that, but PS also seems to block the reduction in testosterone levels that usually occurs after intensive bouts of exercise! PS easily crosses the blood brain barrier and does not have any known side effects. Now you are really hungry to get your calloused hands on this Impact Ultra stuff, right? But hang on...we're not done just yet. There is still two more amazing compound that I want to tell you about before you rush to place your order. It's now all about that muscle magic "third goal" in this monster supplement "hat trick!"
#3 & 4: 7alpha-hydroxy-Dehydroepiandrosterone Acetate and 7beta-hydroxy- Dehydroepiandrosterone Acetate (the Ultra cortisol controllers and fat loss fanatics synergist):
Most anyone around for the past 10 years is aware of the naturally occurring steroid DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone). When adequate amounts are present I the body its positive effects are changes in the immune system, inflammation, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, anticarcinogenic effects, neuroprotection, and antioxidant effects. Obviously good for recovery and general lean body mass, huh? So just take lots of DHEA, right? Nope! Most of the positive biological actions of DHEA likely are not due to DHEA itself, but its metabolites. This is due to some rather interesting facts: Specific metabolites of DHEA share its properties but are significantly stronger. The direct mechanism of action of DHEA has not been identified in the endless research available. This shows us that the metabolites are the goodies responsible for its effects. It is well proven that large doses are generally required for DHEA to have an effect in animal studies, indicating that it may function as a precursor to more active steroids such as the metabolites we are working with.
Well-structured research studies have recently identified a number of DHEA metabolites which do not convert to androgens or estrogens or interact with sex steroid receptors. However they do posses the best of the in vivo properties of DHEA, such as increased thermogenesis, increaded immune response, neuroprotection and memory improvement, and improved overall cardiovascular health. Without doubt the most important of these are 7alpha-hydroxy-DHEA 7-oxo-DHEA (also known as the patented product 7-keto-DHEA), and 7beta-hydroxy-DHEA. Among the DHEA derivatives, the patented 7-oxo-DHEA is most readily available as a supplement. However 7-oxo-DHEA is converted into both 7alpha-Hydroxy-DHEA and 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEA in humans, and in human liver microsomes, this occurs at an approximately 1:2 ratio. Both of these steroids can also be converted back into 7-oxo-DHEA thus supporting better efficiency and synergy from the 7alpha-hydroxy-DHEA and 7beta-hydroxy-DHEA metabolites than from the 7-oxo-DHEA metabolite itself. Credit and patent rights for these two superior DHEA metabolite finds goes to a rather bright lad at Designer Supplements. So why did we replace 7-oxo-DHEA with 7alpha-Hydroxy-DHEA and 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEA? Simple: Does it make good sense to use a supplement you "hope" will turn into something in your body, or is it obviously more effective to just use the actual synergistic active compounds? Please do not get me wrong: 7-oxo-DHEA is a wonderful and effective supplement. But why take it to help the body make more 7alpha-Hydroxy-DHEA and 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEA.
So What's The Take Home Facts Here?
7alpha-Hydroxy-DHEA and 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEA are wonderful compounds that serve two roles in the Impact Ultra matrix. I already discussed the ugly effects that cortisol can have for us iron addicts, and the role that PS plays in blunting some of it's release. However, 7alpha-Hydroxy-DHEA and 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEAare also happy to provide some cortisol controlling contributions!
* More Cotisol Control
* Both 7alpha-Hydroxy-DHEA and 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEA are more potent than DHEA in enhancing immune response and counteracting glucocorticoid-induced immunosuppression meaning that cortisol just loses out to better chemistry.
There is an interesting method of action here, in that there is an enzyme in the liver called 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11betaHSD1), whose role it is to convert inactive glucocorticoids to their active form, such as the conversion of cortisone to cortisol. Well, it seems that 7alpha-Hydroxy-DHEA, 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEA and 7-oxo-DHEA interchanging metabolites compete with the inactive glucocorticoids for the 11betaHSD1 enzyme, thus blocking some of the body's ability to make cortisol. While not as strong as a cortisol blocker as PS, 7alpha-Hydroxy-DHEA and 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEA certainly provide a nice jab before PS throws the knockout punch!
Improved Fat Loss Synergy
The second role that new 7alpha-Hydroxy-DHEA and 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEA are so generous to provide is potent lipolytic capabilities. Yup, this stuff also burns fat! This helps prevent the normal and post cycle accumulation of adipose tissue, allowing you to keep that lean, hard look we all work are asses off to get! There are several possible mechanisms of action here that I will just briefly touch on, cause I know that by now you must be chomping at the bit to get your own supply of Impact Ultra. The first lies in the potentiation of thyroid hormone activity and an increase in levels of triiodothyronine, also known as the fat burning thyroid hormone T-3. And you all know what a powerful fat burning agent T3 is! Another study examined the association between natural 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEA levels and T3 levels in 152 men and women, and found them to be significantly correlated, indicating a possible link between the two factors meaning that superior levels of 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEA optimize natural thyroid function for a better lean mass environment. 7alpha-Hydroxy-DHEA also administration resulted in significant decreases in body weight in rats and a better ratio of lean mass. This is an effect that was greater than that of DHEA itself. However, in a study in monkeys, 7-oxo-DHEA failed to have an effect on body weight over the course of a month.
Next, 7alpha-Hydroxy-DHEA and 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEA have been shown to up-regulate thermogenic enzymes in the liver, effectively enhancing calorie burning and use of fat for fuel. The third mechanism by which these two advanced substrates seem to work their fat-melting magic is induction of PPAR receptors. This can have multiple effects leading to fat loss, including increased mitochondrial uncoupling, regulation of genes that play a role in lipid metabolism, and an increase of L-carnitine levels in various body tissues. No doubt about it, 7alpha-Hydroxy-DHEA and 7beta-Hydroxy-DHEA bitch'n cortisol blocking, fat incinerating compounds! *So Why the "Acetates" instead of base? Geez, because bases absorb poorly and only have about a 2 hour peak in the circulatory system for each dose. Acetates are esters which allow for as much as a 4 day half-life. Good reason? Did you really want to dose every 2-4 hours? So my fellow iron warriors, no more worries about the evil effects of estrogen or cortisol, cause ALRI has got your back (and thighs, and pecs, and arms) with the release of the new Impact Utra; an Integrated Matrix for Advanced Post Cycle Therapy.
You are the one in command now, as you hold the key to regaining control of your body's balancing "software." Impact Ultra will allow you to retain newly gained muscle tissue and lost fat tissue more efficiently than ever before, making each and every cycle you go on to be up to 100, 200, or 300% more effective than it would be without Impact Ultra. Impact Ultra is without question, one of the biggest breakthroughs in the world of radical physique augmentation! Get your Impact Ultra, and then see and the feel the impact!
