7 pounds! Awesome! There are over 350,000 people around the world taking the Max-OT course right now! It has opened a lot of eyes and is producing a lot of gains as you are finding out.
GABA is a really interesting supplement and works extremely well. In fact, there is not a more effective natural compound for increasing growth hormone levels. It’s quite underrated mainly because most people don’t know about it. The other supplement companies do little if any real research so they have no way of knowing just how effective it is.
GABA starts working immediately. In other words, you can expect a big (research shows more than 550%) increase in growth hormone the very first time you take it. The GH spike peaks after about 90 minutes and stays elevated over baseline for several hours. So you get a big spike and gradual but lengthy return to baseline levels.
As I’m sure you know, growth hormone is one of your body’s primary and most anabolic hormones. It’s effect on muscle growth is unmatched. Elevating your body’s growth hormone will help increase lean muscle mass while reducing body fat.
GABA also gives you a very relaxing effect at a 3 gram dose and is best used at night before bed. It helps you sleep deeper and more soundly. This aspect helps significantly with recuperation and a deep REM (rapid eye movement) sleep correlates directly with increased growth hormone secretion.
As far as when you can expect to see gains? GABA starts working immediately so gains will happen quickly providing you are training and eating right as well. You will notice size and strength increases as well as fat reduction.
Finally, there is no research that supports the need to cycle GABA. My advice is to take it each evening before bed.
