GNC Total Lean is supposed to help increase your
Thermogenic supplements work by using stimulants which are effective in raising your body temperature and the number of calories burned – therefore increasing the results of your exercise and diet.
If you’re like most bodybuilders/fitness enthusiast, you’ve probably turned to a thermogenic supplement at one point to help you burn more calories, or to get lean. For those of you hoping for a wonder pill that will help you
You can purchase
GNC Total Lean – The Lowdown:
Accelerated weight loss?
Yes! I see a greater improvement in body composition in a short period when compared to dieting alone.
Increase post workout calorie burning by up to 60% (as claimed by their marketing materials)?
Dunno la.. how do I measure that?
Would you see results in 30 days?
Yes, you will. You’ll see results in 2 weeks actually.
Would I recommend Total Lean?
Yes, but only if you have the discipline to adhere to a reasonably strict diet and stick to your workouts.
Do you need Total Lean to lose weight?
No – it’s only a diet aid and increases the effectiveness of your workout. Diet & exercise alone still yields great results on its own.
What exercises/diet should I follow?
It comes with a 14-day meal & exercise plan if you’re clueless
How does Total Lean compare to Xenadrine/Hydroxycut?
Xenadrine & Hydroxycut go a few steps further as to control appetite as well, and I’ve had incredible results with them.. definitely far superior to Total Lean.
Other observations
- You sweat much easier. Not only when you’re exercising!
- Greater focus/concentration and intensity during your workouts
- Increased heart rate during workouts
- Decreased appetite (is this supposed to happen?)
- The tablets have a weird ginger aroma/spicy taste to it, so shove it in your mouth and swallow it as quick as you can! Ha ha.
- It didn’t work AT ALL for my friend who skipped her workouts and sometimes forgot to take her tablets.
- Can be used as an occasional energy booster for your workouts.
Quick tip: Want to know what it feels like to exercise with a thermogenic?
Consume 3 teaspoons of instant coffee (mixed with water) 30 minutes before your workout, and you’ll know what I mean (Not for the faint of heart).

Hello

Admin – can you introduce any shop at KL that have reasonable price for Xenadrine/Hydroxycut. Do you mind to share your experience?
Hi wan… drop me an email at author@dailymuscle.com – I know someone who may be able to help you out. Thanks.
I’m currently run/walk/jog for a full two hours at least twice a week. Does taking Total Lean helps, or it won’t make any significant changes to the amount of calories burn? (as the amount of workout might not be intensive enough?).
Hi, I’m currently consuming this Total Lean. I hardly see any decrease in my weight but I get some positive comments from my friends and relative on my body shape. I feel so energetic when I workout too and sweat a lot.
Its fucking useless bought 3 Packets so far i barly ate i workout like shit no much difference i lost some weight tho because of my lack of eating and exercise not this crap product
Ahmed – sorry to hear about your experience. Any product, should be coupled together with a sensible eating plan geared towards your goals, and a proper exercise routine. Putting all your hopes on a product alone to do it for you would usually lead to disappointment.
i just bought total lean(in malaysia) but theres no 14 days plan inclueded with it,can u tell what the plan is please..
by the way,i’m malaysian..
I jus got the total Lean 7 day kit! Omg.. Yesterday was my first day and I worked out and ate healthy and took the shakes but I always have a snack with it! And I lost 2 pounds when I weights myself! This product works great u jus need to always have snacks and remember that the snake is a meal replacer and you Gould have snacks with it… And drink lots of water and my work out isnt that intense because I do have a messed up knee I can do any power lifting! So jus staying active and take the shakes and pills then sitting around hoping it works isn’t the way to go about it… But I love this product… It stops my from eating my life away.. Plus I work at a pizza place so it controls all my eating and I feel happy and like I have more energy! :)
I started the total lean program last week, dropped six pounds!, at the end of the program, yes you will lose inches,have more energy, sweat, i coupled the program with the strict diet plan, and went to the gym everyday, at the end of the program i noticed i was putting on alot of muscle, craved protein, asked a nutrionist about filling up on lettuce to curb hunger, said it was a great idea, no calories, the only thing i did notice is that the shakes gave me gas!lol am now starting the 2 week total transformation program by gnc, we will see, good luck all!
