Aside from using pheromones to enhance social communication, I appreciate the self effects in different subtle ways in how they may enhance a given activity or so it seems.

For myself, Alfa Maschio is a great mix to spray on before a workout in a way where it functions like various pre-workout supplements I have used to use at least in the respect of motivation (yes, I don't mean literally like a pre-workout supplement such as creatine monohydrate or such). I find that I'm more likely to run longer or lift more when I can detect the scent of Alfa Maschio on me.

I've tested this before without actually wearing it and simply shaking the bottle and taking a big whiff of the contents. The effect was not as dramatic as to be expected but I still received some extra motivation while heading into the beginning of the work out.

This thread is mainly to ask other forum users of Pheromone Truth what pheromone mixes seem to enhance the results of their own personal work outs. I look forward to the responses.


Note: It all could just be a placebo. That's why I am searching for others' experiences in doing something similar.

Thank you.

See my thread under Steve O's forum, about XS-100 gym rat mone. I always wear something when I work out, and more often then not get some pretty blatant hits.

However like you, I do use for self effects, on lifting days..cardio not so much.

Aqua Vitae is awesome!

There's a trainer at work that I've been flirting with. Sadly when I wear my Aqua Vitae, she avoids me like the plague. When I'm moneless, she comes up to me and smiles pleasantly. I don't really hit on her. I'm just nice.

But Aqua Vitae is an excellent work out mone. I intentionally OD on it just to work out.

I've been thinking about something similar lately. I'm not necessarily looking for good self effects while working out, but some combinations actively drag down a workout. I'd say that some quantity of neno, which is energizing, is interesting for workouts and doesn't have the sleepy effect that many buffers require. Low doses (fractions of a mcg) are definitely good, though weak. I want to test more with high doses. A little bit of dienone is tolerable since the negative effects will be buffered by the neno, but dienone will never improve the quality of a workout. DHEAS is also a good stimulating component for a workout mix.

While Androstenone (and Androstenone rich mixes like Ammo) may help the intensity of the workout I don't like going that route. I feel like wearing lots of alpha molecules while working out is more likely to irritate the specific people I work out with, especially during workouts. It's like the buffer molecules are less effective during a hard workout. And I'm very careful with where I wear Androstenone anyways.

For what it's worth, molecule E from Chris's 2nd round of molecule tests ("E2" 5a-androst-16-en-3alpha-benzoate ) was one of the few things that seemed to get clear attention-hits for me from strangers in a gym environment. (I'm never really social at the gym to begin with.) The downside was it really amped up my sense of smell, which is not something you want to do in 24 Hour Fitness.

Ascend XS or Aqua Vitae roll on bottle, since it is the cheapest per application and the self effect is great, AscendXS has copulin, which increases testosterone, apply it directly to the chin. I hope to have Corpo in the list, but it is too expensive for just self effect, the bottle will run out quickly, and it doesn't last long since it is not oil based.
