That dude can sit on a podcast and yap for 3 hours straight without coming up for air. It's impressive. I'm not sure about whether or not he's full of shit though.

Mike Israetel changes his opinion all the time on training frequency/volume/intensity based on the most recent study and say that's what he's been saying all along.

I think Lyle McDonald hates Mike personally so it's definitely biased, but he has a few good criticisms. Made a youtube video.

I also think Lyle provides good training information so maybe I'm biased too.

I still watch Israetel's videos all the time.

I have not heard of Lyle McDonald. I will check him out.
 
The CBP has a set of new rules that'll go into effect around April. That's going to shrink the de minimus loophole that's allowed drugs and guns from China to easily slide through in small, duty exempt packs easily to a pinhole.

The bi partisan legislation to really crack down on de minimus, that's been in progress for the last two years, will be voted on soon, with the Dems in the Senate proposing to remove China from de minimus all together just a couple of days ago.

That means everything sent from China direct to consumers will no longer be able to bypass customs like 99% do now, and have to be fully processed the old fashioned way, with compete paperwork, items identified, and charged duties. The expectation is that these requirements will make it preferable for Chinese companies to just import products like they used to, the regular commercial way, and reselling from within the US, instead of sending direct to consumers. The "direct to consumer" packs will be reduced in volume by 90% or more, making it much easier for customs to scrutinize those packs.

TLDR: It's only going to get worse. Sending contraband from China directly to consumers will no longer be practical, and however sellers like QSC move forward, if they do, it'll be significantly different than the way they've done business for the last few years. If I had to guess they'll figure out some way to smuggle stuff in bulk, and stock and sell from domestic warehouses only. That'll mean a smaller selection and higher prices. Higher than current domestic prices.

As soon as CNY is over, and you've got anything you need but didn't "stock up" on earlier, if it's available international at a good price I wouldn't wait, and jump on it immediately before that door slams shut in the Spring at the latest.

As far as raws, if that was a strategic move by Chinese authorities to not aggravate the situation and risk inviting more and even higher tariffs, I don't see any reason why they'd start allowing it again. Why would they? The amount of money involved in illegal drug precursors of all types is nothing. It's not like some major source of income for China. They sell more in plastic straws in a day than AAS in a year.
Seriously well thought out. Thanks for the post.
 
Canada is a major world fent producer so I'd imagine that Canada will be the new warehouse.

I don't expect the "direct to consumer" model of AAS sales to hold up any longer.

If they start shipping from China via a 3rd party country, that route will be discovered and widely exploited by other sellers of contraband, attracting attention and getting shut down,

Seems much more likely they'll figure out a way to ship in bulk to the US via some secret method, and sell from domestic warehouses.

I suspect they saw this coming and set up domestic warehouse operations as insurance against this eventuality.

I think QSCs "must buy domestic US if available" policy was a way to ensure enough business was directed to the domestic warehouse operation to keep it alive for the day the crackdown on de minimus came.

I just like listening to bro's talk about bodybuilding, science, and gear.

***for entertainment, not education

if they say something interesting, gotta do due diligence
One of my biggest pet peaves is irl or if I watch something I think may be educational is when someone talks about the amountbof geatvtgwy arr on and they say. "Yeah its am taking 1 5ml of test and 1ml of masteron and half a mm ot tren.."" I'm mean how yhe fuck am I suppose to know what the concentration of your gear is.. I dont even think they know... It bothers me when people do that for some reason. I'm like no how many mg per week ate you on, then there are like oh per week that's 3mls total of test ...... yada yada... how does that makes since that people don't even know the concentration of there gear....just something I pick up on sometimes ..
Peace
 
Does anyone have a QSC pricing sheet from Early August 2023? I had a decent sized stockpile of stuff in the back of my freezer, and the cheap chinese labels I used are completely destroyed/unreadable. If I can find a pricing sheet from back then I can save the stock.

That's the ones from reddit and Facebook.

How much tirz are you on?
'50 units, how much bac do I add to this vial to make my dose 50 units?'
How many mg were in your dose? How many are in the vial?
'What's a mg?'
