Ive used optygen off and on, and thought i noticed lowered HR at the same pace in running and cycling, but the effect quickly leveled off and soon i felt like i was back to normal. I was wondering if anyone else has used it, and think it works. I realize that my effects might have been because i was merely further along in my training cycle, thus more fit. I know there will be people who will reply, “There’s no magic pill, just train more” So i will just acknowledge this now to save everyone the trouble
I used Optygen consistently for twenty seven weeks. When contrasted against the claims the comapny made in performance, I would say it did not deliver. Furthermore, it was difficult to get a succint, one page answer as to how it worked and what it did.
For me, it is difficult or impossible to measure any quantifiable results. That, in and of itself, raise concerns for me over its effectiveness with my body and metabolism.
It is worth mentioning it may be highly effective for other people.
I can honestly say that like every other “snake oil” out there, this product just costs more than the rest. I was fooled by the “pro team” that uses it (if it’s so good, why aren’t they always #1) and all the propaganda of the adds that I caved in. I’ve seen some positive reports that the ingredients will buffer acid a little, but to say it helped is a stretch. Perhaps our bodies are a too complex and different day by day that it’s hard to really tell which works or not. Today was a full on heavy acid sore legs day and nothing would cure that.
I’ve used Champion Nutrition Muscle Nitro (I do not sell it though) and had great results from that.
Tom-what else do you use that works?
