Clenbuterol Hydrochloride (Clen HCl) is a truely remarkable fat burner andweight loss aid, hence being called the La Diet, The Hollywood Size Zero diet, and many more celebrity and movie related names. Clenbuterol like Ephedrine HCl is not an anabolic steroid, but is often called a non steroid, steroid, It is originally a bronchodilator to treat, bronchitis, asthma and other similar conditions.

Clenbuterol operates mainly by boosting the production and secretion of catabolic hormones, which are secreted from the adrenal region of the brain. These hormones have a vast variety of functions and purposes. First of all they appear to alter the contractile characteristics of smooth muscle, but very specifically. Some will apparently be stimulated, and others inhibited. Amongst those inhibited, the smooth muscles in the bronchial tree, which explains its soothing effect in patients with breathing problems.

What it also does, and what is the main factor in Clenbuterol Weightloss and Fat Burning - it increases thermogenisis. That is the process by which the body generates its heat, or energy, by increasing the metabolic rate above normal. This usually encompasses a temporary, slight rise in blood pressure, a stimulatory effect of the heart muscle (speeds your heart rate up) and a resulting rise in body temperature, which burns calories.

Along with reversing the effects of insulin (and inhibiting the action of insulin) which results in a release of glycogen (sugars) back into the blood stream as glucose, and an inability to store or use more glycogen, Clenbuterol will increase the rate of protein and fat being burned in the body.

The thermogenisis along with an increase in the rate of fat being burned, usually has as a result that the metabolic rate of the subject is much higher and he/she burns more calories, This in turn results in loss of adipose tissue (the shedding of fat in other words) revealing a harder, leaner physique (harder muscle tone) and appearance, as well as weight loss.

Can Clen increase performance?
Depending on the dosage, Clenbuterol can improve (with low dosages) or reduce performance (with high dosages). Therefore, if you are using high doses of Clen (past 200mcg), its recommended that you split up the dosage into two uneven parts.

Before training
Use a small to moderate amount of Clen to optimize both your strength and your muscle pump, It is up to you to find this individual dose but it is fairly easy.

After training
Use the rest of the Clen in order to reach your predetermined dose for the day, as perfomance will be reduced but the burn and other effects will be increase.
