Hey Raf...how is it going!! I seen back a few posts that BigCat asked about Secretatogue Gold from MHP. I understand the theory and how it helps HGH secretions naturally. My question to you is, what is L-Dopa, and GABA? I know you always have a simple definition that we all can understand, and I appreciate it. Doe's any one of these things pose a problem for the natural athlete competing?

Hey by the way are you ready for Worlds? Are you still taking the stage next week? If so I KNOW your going to kill it!!

Thx for your help, you are trully a inspirational icon!

Hey Scot! Hope all is well, man!

Yes, my comp. is this Saturday. I’m doing the NPC Eastern USAs, though. I’ll have pics up soon. Best shape ever!

L-Dopa is an amino acid which is commonly used to increase libido. It is converted to dopamine, and is incorporated to HGH supplements, as it has been suggested to have a relaxing effect, therefore enhancing sleep and HGH release.

GABA reportedly helps increase GH release as well, along with enhancing sleep cycles.

That’s why both of them are routinely used together, as they work via different channels but towards the same goal.

Keep training hard, man! I’ll have picks up soon.

Raf, that's right your in the NPC now!!! I wish you the best bro! I will be rooting for ya. Let me know how it goes....pics are a MUST too!

Thx for the info in those two supplements. Is there anything that I might need to be worried about in regards to natural testing though (in the future)?

Go get 'em!!

Hey Scott,

No worries with those supps in regards to banned lists.

I placed 2^nd at the Easterns. Very close. But, with the 2^nd placing, I qualify for all National competitions next year, which allows me to compete for Pro status. So, mission accomplished. Pics are up on the muscular development site. I’ll get pics up on here soon.

I came in at 173.. 5lbs heavier than last year! With great conditioning…

Raf

Raf, thx for the feedback!

I seen them on the MD site, you look fantastic. Conditioning and hardness was spot on! Deadlifts paid off, haha!

Congrats on your 2nd place. Are you jumping into another one while your in the this condition, or are you jumping right into Thanksgiving feeding?

ScottyMac

Thanks, man. There's some good pics up on rxmuscle as well.

Without a doubt looking forward to Thankgiving. But I must tell you, dieting wasn't all that bad..I was at IHOP on Wednesday for my carbup!! Def. learned alot along the way on this one...

Hope all is well...

Raf
