4 Weeks on Fadogia and Tongkat - Muscle? Libido?

4 weeks on from taking Fadogia Agrestis and Tongkat Ali I report back on my results. I was actually really surprised as I did not expect the results I ended up getting. I am not a supplement manufacturer or seller (although I do make a few pence if you buy from the amazon links below). It certainly isn't enough money to get me to lie. Last month my Amazon links generated just under £2 for the entire month!
I ordered both the UK and US variants and have been swapping each week to try to make things fair. I have been using the doses as suggested on the supplement packaging.
This was all done in conjunction with an excellent diet and lifting routine.

Some pretty interesting results thus far. Definitely interested on an update in a month to see how your fairing.

[@chaplinesque111]

Thanks buddy, this is promising. I'll wait for the next update on these supps and then if all keeps going well, I'll give'm a go. Cheers

[@ChirripoCory]

Great video. Appreciate the testimony.

I bought it last week, from the same channel you were talking about. Really excited. Currently watching research videos like you.

11 months on how do yo ufeel ?

[@kevinblank3844]

Loved this. Thank you

[@silverjaw138]

Thank you sir, I’ve used your link and ordered some to try. I’m similar to you in that I’m 49, decent shape, I work out regularly and have an active job. I’ll give these a test run and see how it goes.

[@rdallas81]

Hello mate. Did you order and what was the status on its effectiveness?

[@iiiiiiiiijj]

Thank you for your concise opinion. I was wondering what brand to purchase. As you can imagine not all are good .

[@jaimeizreal8810]

Hey bros. I'm in my late 40's. I've been taking Tongkat ali for just 2 months now. For reference, in my younger years I was a semi-pro cyclist. No joke, I'm as fast and as powerful as I was when I was in my late 30's (I have real cycling data to back this up) only because of this supplement. Even my doctor thought I was taking 'roids' behind his back when he saw the data. No cap. Tongkat Ali is the real-deal. I haven't taken Fadogia Agrestis though but this sounds like an invitation. Haha.

[@leeturner3313]

Hi, is there a particular brand or website you get yours from?

[@jaimeizreal8810]

@@leeturner3313 Amazon Canada is where I picked up my Tongkat Ali product. Not sure if it's the best brand out there but I've been seeing nothing but positive results from using it (and I'm still seeing positive results). The brand is Fertiox and it has cordyceps in it. Cordyceps mycelium has protective effects against oxidative damage, cancer cells, and neurodegenerative diseases. It is also a safe natural supplement to raise testosterone levels and promote sperm production. Seems to be working for me. Peace.

[@Halbared]

Which brand?

[@markbalogh9655]

did you also try Fadogia Agrestis as well? or only Tongkat Ali?

[@jaimeizreal8810]

@@markbalogh9655 So far, I've been just taking Tongkat Ali, but Fadogia Agrestis is in my roster of supplements. When I start taking it (in a week or so), I'll let you know with a reply here. I just want to see how high I can get my test levels with Tongkat Ali. I've always had high test levels though that's why I want to make sure this supplement actually boosts your test levels. It appears it does work. My cycling data and blood work is proof. I went from 543 mg/dl to 628 mg/dl (at age 48). I didn't change ANYTHING I was doing, except for taking Tongkat Ali.

[@adrianb8620]

Thank you!

[@Plato76...]

I've been taking both. Deffo increases libido. Have the powdered version of tongkat in my coffee and capsule of the other stuff every other day. Lifting more in gym but don't know if it's down to the supps. Another great video mate keep them coming!

[@thatgearguy]

I think the libido issue is a pretty good gauge of hormone levels. Mine is pretty consistent so if it elevates then I know something is going on!!

[@AceWall73]

Thanks for the info! I've been wondering if there is something to Tongkat Ali.

[@TheFireGlory07]

I’m about to turn 38 and took my first dose of fadogia today. Might be placebo effect, but I’m feeling more energized even after a night of poor sleep. My heart rate was about 15 pulses above normal (which I don’t like much) after 20 minutes of taking the pills. Usually, in the morning when at rest, my heart rate is 70-75, but after the dose it was 88-92. Hours later I do feel faster at work. Too early for any effect for sure, might be just impression, but yesterday was slower than today. I’ll add TA next week.

[@Rico4801]

Do you take yours in the morning or night, I’ve been hearing people say good things about taking it at night, also strolled through your channel and read the titles and it looks like you have some very interesting videos so I subbed.

[@thatgearguy]

Thanks for subbing Rico. I did the first 4 weeks morning and the 4 in the eve. I didnt experience any difference

[@TonyKeepingItClean]

That is impressive. Huge jump in a short period of time. I’ve been taking 400mg of tongkat Ali a day for around 6 weeks and my strength has increased a fair bit too. My fadogia arrived this morning so I’ll be taking both now. Please keep us in the loop.

[@rayhinto]

And after a month? Have them both now too. And sideeffects?

[@ShortSpring82]

how did u go

[@TonyKeepingItClean]

@@rayhinto I have been taking tongkat ali without cycling for a few months now and the effects are all positive as far as I can tell. The fadogia is very good too, but it gives me a ball ache after a while so I tend not to take it everyday. I’m stronger, butcher, more energetic, hornier and my beard is thicker. All in all I think it’s a good thing.

[@TonyKeepingItClean]

@@ShortSpring82 definitely feel better but I am cycling the fadogia because it get aching bollocks if I take it everyday.

[@ShortSpring82]

@TonyKeepingItClean I've been told to take it daily, 600mg for 2 weeks and cycle off for 2 weeks

[@Twanger..]

Very interesting..

[@brucejensen3081]

Sounds like it works for you. Wonder if the effects are on central nervous system or on the brain

[@caprilover6391]

That sounds incredible! I've heard a lot about it from different people on the internet. Have you been taking Mon-Fri and weekends off or 2 weeks on one week off or just everyday? I have heard you should do some sort of cycle with as the body adjusts to bring homeiostais (just used a word I don't know how to spell)😁👍

[@thatgearguy]

I just took it daily.

[@caprilover6391]

That's cool, thanks for the reply. I'm pretty sure the cycle Mon-Fri and weekends off were people who ran it continuously for months and months.

[@martynbonanza]

You look bigger too, shoulders and chest... I took the same path as you ie Andrew Huberman who is a Godsend and my Fadogia arrives on Tuesday - looking for a reasonable source of Tongkat.

[@Neonmirrorblack]

A more recent study last year on rats was showing severe, and irreversible liver damage as well as kidney problems when taking Fadogia Agrestis even at the recommended dose for over forty days. No human trials have been done yet, but it's toxic in rats, and they're always the basis for most scientific studies that might later involve human trials.

[@garethgale2051]

Im taking both supplements in tablet form and I'm wondering if anyone has tried the Tongkat powder and if they have any idea if it's more beneficial to have powder over the tablets?

[@burkhardklotzke9435]

Regarding the bench press, it could be psychologically, i had experienced that twice - once i put accidentally 10kg more on the bench, but didn't notice the weight. So increased my absolute limit by 10kg ! (from 130 to 140) - for me an amazing experience. That also shows us, that we always should have a positive belief ... Thanks for your video !! Regarding A. Huberman i share your opinion !!

[@jaimeizreal8810]

@burkhardklotzke9435 It very well could be a placebo effect, sure. But I have blood work that shows that my testosterone levels actually increased quite a bit and my doctor thought I was resorting to actual roids, lol. I also gained 7 pounds of rock-solid muscle in the last 2 months from taking Tongkat Ali. I believe it does work beyond a placebo effect, but I'm not saying you are wrong. The mind is POWERFUL and often underestimated.

[@burkhardklotzke9435]

@@jaimeizreal8810 , 7 pounds in 2 months is quite a lot, and i agree, even there would be a placebo effect (additionally you worked out harder than normal) ... that cannot explain 7 pounds. You are not a beginner - you have surely strong muscles already , a beginner could gain more (in relation). I took 4 weeks Tongkat Ali + Fagodia Arestis (600-800mg+600mg), I am in the same range of benchpressing as you (140-150kg) and gained no additional bodyweight at this time-interval, but I could press about 8-10kg more. Also don't know how much of it may have been psychological ? The Fagodia Agrestis had some side effects. TA alone was good. I think you can take TA 1000mg without any sideeffects and it does not need Fagodia Agrestis at all (simply skip it).

[@nacCtuZz]

200-400mg of what ratio of extract? 1:10 1:50 1:100 1:200. No one is ever talking about this..

[@C-commerce]

I know this was almost a year ago but curious like others if you cycled on and off. I noticed i peaked at 2 months then they say you stop for 2 weeks and then go again for 2weeks on and off after the first 2 months. I've seen better results this way but could be placebo as well.

I did not cycle, I just ran it straight through.

Hey my brothers. Anybody tried any other libido/test homeopathic meds? I tried cistanche, trib few others I like taking an assortment. I feel better than my 30s and I’m 44. Libido is higher than I ever known it. Let me know if you guys had similar or any tips or good results my brothers

[@jjrilla___2664]

I tried trib in the past only made me more irritated. I took turkesterone, fadogia, and tong kat at the same time. I felt the best I felt in years. Wasn’t sure which had the most effect. I thought it was Maca and tong Kat so started taking just those. But had to change maca brands. Anyway Tong seems to have lost its effectiveness as well. So I ordered another bundle of Turk, fadogia and tong Kat. Hopefully I get the same results. I wanted to know how did you find Cistanche?

Any change in hartrate or so?

The only change has been HRV which has moved from 29 to 32. I do not know if that has anything to do with the supp. My other levels (ox, hr, bp) are all much the same.

[@djek1976]

@@thatgearguy Sorry but what is HRV?

[@djek1976]

High Rep .....? 🤔

[@thatgearguy]

@@djek1976 HRV (Heart Rate Variability) is a metric used to measure the variation in time intervals between consecutive heartbeats averaged over time.1 It is controlled by the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and can indicate well-being.0 Variability in HRV is good and desirable, as it can help reduce stress levels.

[@peterbradley4916]

Could have been the increase in calories. Was the an increase in the other lifts? Pity you didn't do any blood work. Good info anyways!

[@thatgearguy]

You dont get a 30k 1 rep max increase from a few hundred cals. Also bare in mind my bodyweight has not changed much at all. If cals were helping it would be an increase in lean mass which would be visible in the mirror and on the scales. Bottom line, I need about 15k more subscribers before I can drop money to make videos. I am an average working man with very little disposeable income.

[@user-qe8jz3ju7x]

You lost me with the affordability of doing blood work to prove these supps do anything at all for test levels, simple and cheap but excuses 😒
