I am trying to get in Beach shape by May 22nd...been working out since Nov and made pretty good gains. The only supps I have been taking are Whey Protien and a Multi. the past few months I have been focusing on cutting but I still have a little bit of fat that I would like to trim away from the stomache area. Problem is I have also lost a little bit of muscle while I was cutting. I know they say that you can't cut and bulk at the same time but, if I took hydroxy cut along with NO Explode would this allow me to lose fat and look bulkier due to the pumps at the same time?

No xplode is little more than a caffeine preworkout drink...as most if not all NO products are pretty much useless.

That being said, if you wanna cut then you're gonna have to accept the fact that you'll lose a little muscle in the process. Burning more calories than you consume is the key to weight loss, so whatever supps you take to aid that is up to you. However, getting enough carbs will spare muscle because muscle won't be burned for energy. High protein will also prevent more muscle from being lost.

Sounds like we're both in the same boat. I'm cutting up right now too and my body always stores the majority of the fat in my midsection.

I agree, if your trying to cut, you are going to have to accept the fact that muscle and strength will be lost. Taking an NO probably isn't going to give you a great pump considering you most likely are eliminating most carbs out of your diet. I personally wouldn't take a NO while cutting but its personal preference.

You could also try taking RPMs to give you some energy when you are cutting instead of a NO. RPMs will make you sweat a lot during your workout. I would recommend trying them.

i think you're attaching wrong results with NO Xplode. It's not going to "save" your muscle in any way and the additional stimulants combined with hydroxycut might be more than you're prepared for.
