    Honestly I was always sceptical about fat burners, but 2 weeks ago I bought T6 fat burners from discount supplements, and I have felt and seen results almost immediately. Dosage for my first week was 1 a day, up to 2 a day now and feeling great.

    Having only been 2 weeks I would recommend them so far, gave me great energy through my workouts but I do tend to feel a bit weak sometimes during the day... 30 euro for 60 capsules.

    Is your diet still the same as it was 2 weeks ago?

    Yep, drinking more Green tea though. Roughly 3-4 small cups a day.

    So you eat the same and lose weight? Even the fat burners don't claim to do that

    As stated in my previous posts... Added energy throughout my workouts, which in turn I felt and looked leaner. Could be due to decreased water retention from T6 or from added intensity during workouts due to the fat burners.

    How do they add energy if you're not consuming more energy? You also said you felt weaker.

    If you want energy then a pre workout or coffee would be more like what you take but fat burners don't even claim to boost energy since one of their aims is to reduce your consumption of energy

    Ingredients:

    •Caffeine
    •Capsicum Extract
    •N-Methyltyramine
    •Cranesbill Extract
    •Cocoa Extract
    •Acai Extract

    Both Caffeine and Methyltyramine - both stimulants

    Fair enough but they don't claim it's for an energy boost.

    And it's why I suggested a coffee pre workout.

    Not having a go at you, chief. Just it's a bit sketchy when it comes to info and fat burners in general are a bit sketchy as it is.

    There are a few studies showing NMT may actually interfere with fat burning.
    Its the major constituent in beer that causes increased gastric secretions and boozy cravings, its used in Japan specifically to increase appetite.
    Also It probably isn't a stimulant, just due to it's chemical structure.
    It's also metabolized extremely fast.

    Just Fyi

    If you haven't lost weight, then you haven't burned any fat, you aren't leaner.
    Even if you decreased water retention (which fat burners don't claim to do) your weight would still have decreased.
    You are probably looking hard to find results.


    €30 for 60 caffeine pills is very expensive.
