Default Hydroxycut vs. Hydroxycut Hard Core

I've been taking regular Hydroxycut...
I've seen some results after 3 months. Would i be making a mistake if i switch over to hydroxycut hardcore? my ultimate goal is to lose body fat and tone my core and build some muscle im chest and arms...

Everything that MuscleTech are bringing out is now called "hardcore", have a look at the ingredients you may find that the products are the same....maybe some small changes,

I would suggest that if you are seeing results from the hydroxy cut then there is no need to switch to the hardcore.

That's just a personal opinion
I have been able to remove fat from my belly and chest. Cardio alone never really helped.. i should upload an before and after pic.

Yes, I agree.

As for the differences between Hardcore and regular - Hardcore has a yohimbine blend (originally for erectile disfunction)
Regular has calcium and chromium (chromium gets some credit for fat loss depending on the study you read)

The yohimbine is a stimulant of sorts and can elevate blood pressure and heart rate.

I think I'd stay with what you all ready know as BigKat has stated.
Hope this helps.
Troy

Doug, since your wife is involved in this field, i was wondering if hydroxycut hardcore is ok from a medical standpoint... I've asked a couple doctors about it (before i started taking it) and they all said I shouldnt... whats the overall opinion, anything i need to look out for?

As long as the directions and dose are followed then there will be no problems with taking the hydroxycut. Most doctors havent got a clue on supplements..

As a bonus here is Jay cutlers 4 page report; MuscleTech.com/products/hydroxycut_hardcore/pdf/PRD_HYD_HC_JaCutl_4pg_Sep07.pdf" target="_blank"> Click Here
