Well throw me a bone and call me DOG ! As I said I have no proof that L-C works for me... Damn plateau... It's cool when you hit a plateau while going up a mountain... Time to recover and catch your breath... But when it happens on a died it's really frustrating. I'll stick to it though. Counting calories and taking 250 mg of L-C before the effort. I found a website that's pretty cool (and free) http://www.trackyourdiet.com/ to help. I also re-evaluated my workouts... results should be coming early next week. I'll post an update then. Cheerio mates and thx for all the replies. ![]()

Lischoux, try upping the L-C to 500 to 1000mg per day. See if that works for a couple of weeks.

I updated this post here : http://www.cyclingforums.com/t103883.html 1000 mg... I dunno but would that not be pushing it ? I have no medical evidence of the negative effects of L-carnitine over-use but I could imagine that there are some. Well...Maybe not... As I was writing this I performed a search and found this site: http://lpi.oregonstate.edu/infocent...nuts/carnitine/ Seems that there are no real side effects... Unless you don't want to smell "fishy" ha ha ha... Okay... I will up the dose a little bit. (However this stuff is expensive.... I'll need to find a dealer that lets me have it in mass quantities for dirt cheap )

I buy the 16oz bottles for only $17.00 U.S. they can be a little expensive but its worth it. Also the reason for upping it is that I was told by a sports nutrionist that its o.k. and like you said no side effects.
