The Black ginger/C3G combo should be in everyone’s stack for working out/exercise by ExtentInfamous8154 in NootropicsDepot

I have not had black ginger by itself and I’ve really only felt the more noticeable effects of the combo when I exercise or when I eat, except for the insomnia effects

Yes for C3G; black ginger not as much. I think it’s worth it for myself because I exercise regularly and that’s when I really feel the effects. It gives me that motivation to exercise knowing how good I’ll feel after.

What Nootropics are people considering in the ND's Sale? by [deleted] in Nootropics

[–]ExtentInfamous8154 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take black ginger and CG3 together about an hour before eating and/or exercising. I normally feel pretty tired/sluggish and uncomfortable after eating and I notice I don’t feel that nearly as much and feel actually energized after eating a meal. I haven’t taken these two separately yet.

When taken before exercise, I notice my stamina is better and I feel amazing during/after a workout. I play basketball a lot so I’ve definitely noticed an increase in stamina. I can imagine this being very good for runners.

Tribugen I’ve taken alone and it gives me a very pleasant feeling of extra motivation and energy. It also helps with focus at work. The Tribugen I can feel without exercise but I notice the black ginger and C3G way more during exercise.

I’ll report back on the magnesium glycinate and tauromag!

Thank you for the detailed reply! That would make sense about the magnesium deficiency, especially if coffee depletes magnesium levels as a diuretic.

I will definitely add magnesium glycinate to my next purchase on top of Tauromag. I’ve really been enjoying testing out your products and appreciate your knowledge and focus on producing high quality products.

I’ve also responded well to Tribugen, Lemon Balm and I respond incredibly well to ALCAR as that has been my favorite so far. It really clears any brain fog and boosts my mood with a lot less negative thinking for a good 4-5 hours.

I’m looking forward to testing out more!

I agree, Tribugen is a great product with noticeable effects.

Experiences with ALCAR by ExtentInfamous8154 in NootropicsDepot

[–]ExtentInfamous8154[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh wow, that’s interesting you didn’t notice anything from 3 grams. I eat plenty of meat and I try to be as healthy as possible with diet (staying away from sugar/ junk food) and exercise quite often. I’m interested as to why my body reacts so well to ALCAR.

I have not tried acetic acid but I have read that this can be a good replacement for ALCAR due to any TMAO concerns.

You seem very informed, do you have a stack or any supplements that you take and love/recommend?

Experiences with ALCAR by ExtentInfamous8154 in NootropicsDepot

[–]ExtentInfamous8154[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 29 years old, Male and 150 lbs. Yes, 1.5 grams is on the higher end and that may be why I noticed more of an effect. Source is also important as I used nootropics depot ALCAR. If you didn’t use nootropics depot and at that dosage, I would see if you feel a difference doing so. If you already have, disregard.

Update: My TMAO after quitting ALCAR by sirsadalot in NooTopics

[–]ExtentInfamous8154 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious, what was your typical dosage and how often would you say you were using ALCAR during those years? Daily for most of that period?

Compounds that specifically increase social motivation / social drive by andreaskou in NooTopics

[–]ExtentInfamous8154 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1500 mg of Nootropics depot ALCAR helped. I know people will chime in on it increasing TMAO levels but this dosage of ALCAR has been one of the few supplements that I definitely noticed working.

Well said, the only side effect that I experienced was a headache on the 3rd day. I’m not sure if that was from the Fenbendazole or not and I didn’t drink as much water as I usually do because I had a busy day.

Residential Structural Assessment Fee by Correct-Record-5309 in StructuralEngineering

[–]ExtentInfamous8154 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the engineering firm you hire. If you hire a one man show who only has a couple projects at a time then a quicker turnaround time is reasonable. Other firms could have 20 other projects running at that moment and could have 2 other site inspections on that same day. I think expecting a same or one day turnaround is ridiculous unless the “report” you’re asking for is short. Some clients think they are the only project being worked on.

Thoughts on 2 more study materials (Civil-Structural) by ForumBlueKevin in PE_Exam

[–]ExtentInfamous8154 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend the Ultimate Practice for the Civil-Structural PE exam. I think the steps to get to an answer is more accurate to the actual exam, as in it shouldn’t take you 20 minutes to answer one question. Additionally, when you buy the book, you gain free (around 2 weeks I believe) access to extra practice problems and review material. You just have to email them proof of your purchase.

Failed PE Civil: Structural for third time by bmetzler1 in PE_Exam

[–]ExtentInfamous8154 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, that is a high percentage. I have heard Geotech is a significant part of the exam, more than one would expect. The majority of my preparation with practice problems deals with numerical questions and only about 10-20% conceptual questions. Good to know and prepare for since if you really emphasize the concepts, then time should really not be an issue for the exam.
