Wanted to try this product out but I got a few questions.
I’ve been lean for a long time now and I wanted to gain some more size. Typically when I start bulking I get fat pretty quickly.
Good post, I’ve been wondering about Carbolin 19 too, was going to post closer to my order date.
Carbolin 19 is expensive…

if you tend to get fat, you need to reevaluate your diet. stop thinking about it as bulking, but rather as lean tissue gain (that’s right, we want to take care of bones and connective tissue also).
Carbolin 19 works well regardless whether you want to gain or lose weight. the best way to describe it is that it is a partitioning agent. if you feel you have made all the dietary adjustments necessary and have accounted for you healthy fats and protein blend (Metabolic Drive), then by all means it is an excellent supp.
sure, but wouldn’t you rather use it while already gaining muscle and keeping lean, thus increasing your progress. for this specific purpose i would actually choose HRX, the added Carbolin 19 has quite the effect whether cutting or bulking.
the product is excellent. as are the HRX and Alpha Male which both contain it. you probably get more for your money with those two, but using it as a standalone is an excellent option.
It can be used during either a fat loss or gaining campain. It’s not a very strong anabolic, but it does mimic Anavar in that it helps retain muscle when restricting calories, and it aids muscle building on a hypercaloric diet coupled with intense training.
It’s effects are subtle, but noticable.

Agreed. Don’t expect to be putting on massive size with this, but I did notice a definite change of body composition. I like this during a bulking phase, because it seems to keep most of the excess fat off of me. I didn’t notice any real changes in recovery time, but I did notice that my huge caloric intake wasn’t causing much fat gain (6-7k per day for 3 weeks).
My take - Carbolin 19 works best with an already good diet. If you’re getting fat pretty quickly, you may want to look at your diet and see if something can be changed.
With that said, I agree with the others - it works in a subtle way, tilting the muscle / fat balance towards muscle.
So, basically it’s not a wondersup but it’s definitely a nice addition if one was looking at something to help them along?

FloridaT, I agree with Ragoo’s input. It’s great for flipping body comp from soft and mushy to hard and defined. I pretty much roll with it as others have stated by itself and in HOT-ROX Extreme or Alpha Male. If leaning out it really seems to bring vascularity out for me. I also feel better in my breathing for some reason when on it.
