Many people join the gym with the initial goal of losing weight, shedding excess body fat, and finding a toned athletic figure. At the same time, it is quite natural to want to resort to any fat-burning supplement to speed up the process. If a person does not want to resort to powerful thermogenic stimulants, which are numerous on the shelves of sports nutrition stores, yohimbine and carnitine will be an excellent option. These two substances do not put an extra load on the heart (moreover, carnitine strengthens it), while there is a noticeable fat-burning effect. In the article, we will talk about the advantages of combining these substances, what results can be expected. As an example, consider the supplement Stark L-Carnitine & Yohimbine from the manufacturer Stark Pharm, where the ratio of active components is optimal.
The supplement contributes to the natural processes of fat burning, contributing to the elimination of fat deposits (and not the removal of fluid). This is exactly the "honest" fat burner, which helps to gradually and efficiently burn excess fat deposits. After the end of taking the supplement, the kilograms of fat will not return (if, of course, you continue to follow a balanced diet).
Binding of yohimbine and carnitine activates lipolysis processes in the body.
Carnitine is a vitamin-like substance in which fat burning is not a primary function, because it manifests itself during physical exertion. Its action consists in a lipolytic effect: it stimulates the breakdown of fat with the release of energy when it is needed, that is, during training. Any physical activity in the morning - running, swimming, strength training, cardio - with the support of carnitine and yohimbine will promote fat burning. Of course, the best effect can be achieved through targeted training.
In addition, L-carnitine has another extremely important property: it strengthens the heart muscle and helps the heart bear physical stress more easily. It does not have any contraindications and is relevant for overweight people who have increased loads on the heart, but who train to bring their weight back to normal.
Yohimbine is an alkaloid extracted from the bark of the yohimbe tree. It promotes fat burning in problem areas (buttocks, thighs, stomach, sides), where fat comes off the hardest. The words "local fat burning" do not mean the improvement of a single area, but the fact that these areas simply will not lag behind. Problem areas are such because of the large number of alpha-adrenoceptors, which are responsible for the accumulation of fat. Yohimbine blocks alpha-2-adrenoceptors, while activating beta-receptors, which, in turn, contribute to the utilization of fats.
Thus, yohimbine and carnitine help to evenly reduce the percentage of subcutaneous and visceral fat in the body and not to face difficulties in reducing fat in particularly large areas of accumulation.
One capsule contains 5 mg of yohimbine and 500 mg of carnitine tartrate. A single portion is calculated according to the principle of 1 capsule for every 50 kg of weight. You need to drink a portion in the morning and one hour before training.
