I’m bulking up this winter, using a combination of a high-protein, moderate-carb diet, P90X workout routines, VPX NO SyntheSize pre/post workout shakes (tastes awful but works), and lots of whey protein. I started at 150, am currently at 160, and am targeting 180 by April. I’ve just started experimenting with pheromones as workout aids over the past couple of weeks. Here’s what I’ve found so far: **Instant Jerk** I find that IJ (at 1x) gives my workouts a very nice boost of aggression. When I use it I tend to be more focused on the exercises, maintain somewhat better form, and to complete more reps overall. **[Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/)** Instant Shine (at 4x) does not seem to increase my ability to complete the exercises, but it does seem to significantly boost my stamina. IS seems to lift some of the internal barriers to completing the workout, so that I happily proceed to the point of muscle failure. _(On a side note, I’ve noted in my journal and perhaps elsewhere that IS was giving me negative side effects, especially exhaustion. I’m happy to report that this seems to have been a temporary adaptation period to the ingredients in IS, as the last few times I’ve worn it I did not experience any of the run-down feelings I had in the past.)_ **P106** P106 (at 15mcgs) does not appear to give me much benefit once I have begun working out, aside form perhaps a slight increase in focus. However, I have found it to be useful on days when I am having trouble _initiating_ the workout. This pheromone helps me to get over the internal obstacles to enacting my plan to work out on schedule, so that I simply stop thinking about it and begin the workout. **Mixes** I have not yet combined any of these ingredients into a workout mix, although IJ and IShine seem like a natural fit together, so I will likely try that combination next time I work out. What individual products or product combinations have you found helpful in your workouts, and what benefits do you feel they provide? ---

My bad buddy, I just noticed you already use pre w/o supps 🙂 ---

> [@azazel249](#): > > My bad buddy, I just noticed you already use pre w/o supps 🙂 No worries 🙂 The NO shakes _really_ step up the game. The one I’m using has no stimulants, though, as I just can’t tolerate them very well. ---

I’ve tried NPA, IJ, and mx297 at the gym. All gave me an above average workout. NPA I suspect will be the most consistent. Surprisingly IJ gave me less of a pump than 297 and NPA. I have to retest mx297 at the gym because it might’ve been a fluke due to the phero rush I no longer get when it’s first applied. Regardless of the cause though, I did set some PRs while wearing it that first time. I have a feeling going above my normal sweet spot of 2x ammo would provide similar results as I get a sorta anxious energy that seems to work well in the gym. Forgot to mention, while NPA is the most effective it also breaks down into a BAD funk at 5:1 cologne:NPA. Can’t win em all I guess. ---

Ah dunno, but I can smell plenty of natural androstenol at the gym, especially in the weight room. In fact, it can be overwhelming on weekend afternoons. Break a sweat for an hour and skin bacteria has plenty of time to convert the goodies in your perspiration to funky anone. Some guys claim a dab of EOW under their nose propels them to new heights of exercise frenzy, apparently raising their T-levels temporarily. If you’re short on the little bottle of stank, ask your GF to dab a wee bit of her honey on your snout. Just realize it has not been filtered or pasteurized so take appropriate precautions before exercising. For best results consult your physician before strenuous exercise. ---

Cops are great for a workout boost I’ve found that TAC allows me to push bigger weights and P124 seems to have a physically grounding self-effect (you almost feel more in tune with your body)… really enjoyable for workouts. NOX is batshit insane for workouts… I had some samples and added them to my water during playoff weekend for Ultimate… ridiculous how amped up I was, I was the fucking energizer bunny. ---

I find the smell and perception altering nature does not assist my workout. I also get a lack of focus due to internal talk or desire for socializing. I stopped using mines after I got very dizzy while doing a squat. I was wearing lots of androstenone in acute scent and it was a bad combo. Over ambitious lift and overwhelming smell/effect. ---

Would consuming certain supplements (such as zinc) help with workout . ? I read it somewhere but zinc is supposed to increase your [pheromone](https://a314.com/shop/) production . I was wondering if those mones it helps produce would aid in workouts .
