Drink Green Tea if you want to get ripped

[blinkin_winkin]

This all looks great about Green Tea... BUT....

It's fkn loaded with caffene! Aren't we not supposed to get caffene because it takes away from your water? If you are lifting water is very important, especially if you add creatine and all that jazz.

So are the benefits of Green Tea so extreme that the loss of water is acceptable?

Green tea is NOT "loaded" with caffeine. The amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee? Half that is in black tea. The amount of caffeine in green tea? Try half that of black tea.

Also, tea does not have the "instant hit" of caffeine as coffee does. The caffeine in tea takes about 15 minutes before it enters the system. In fact, the monks drank it to help aide their meditation because it gave them "relaxed alertness."

Yes, as you mentioned tea is a diuretic, but its not going to cause massive water loss. The body adjusts, and you should be getting enough pure water anyway.

lol, I love the stuff, but I didn't know it stimulated your metabolism. Hmmm, since I'm trying to bulk up I'll give it a rest- it may just be a small thing but I need all the help I can get.

I dont like the taste of green tea or other herbal teas that much. I prefer a cup of Earl Grey or Spearmint tea.

I suggest getting loose green tea if possible, and not the sawdust they put in bags. It is more robust and therefore has more of green tea's benefits, and not too much extra trouble if you get a strainer. In general, anything that is available I have found to be good, usually at an oriental specialty store.

They sell green tea as supplements nowadays, but I enjoy drinking it too much for me to use those.

Green tea

Is weak ass ephedrine.. thats all ..

It does the same thing its just 1/10th as strong.. exact same effect on the adrenal gland..

If you can get some ephedrine take that instead, just follow the directions. we dont need another **** eating 50 in and hour and dieing so that they can blame the pill and take it away from the rest of us who are not retarded..
