So I haven't been here in quite a while maybe almost a year.
I got hooked here when I learned about 5x5 but then after that I just stopped coming back. Anyway the 5x5 worked very well especially when I was eating lots. I blew up 50 pounds in 11 months I was loving it. I lost it all when I...
I just use clean reps and don't worry about tempo. It's harder to do tempo when your adding 5 pounds each week and giving it all you got. Tempo to me is for lighter weights that you can really give a ton of focus and time to.
Make it your LIFE! Don't think about the end just think about the next workout. It's a way of life not a 3 month plan. Read all that you can and try it all must of the people hear really know what's up so read here a lot too. If you want to grow eat a ton of good clean calories and lift...
Wow most of this is different than what I've read before. I agree that lactic acid is why your muscles start to feel pain during a workout and right after, but I had read that lactic acid is usually removed within a few hours after a workout and the soreness that you then feel the day or two...
The Shawn Phillips version from EAS was this. He did 30 second sprints followed by 30 second jogs as one interval then repeated as many times as he could like say 4. He'd do that for twice during the week and then the following week he'd add one interval. So basically a five minute joggin...
Dude I'm in the same boat I have a naturally small frame granted I'm 6'3" but I was never intended to be heavier than maybe 160. I'm now at 245! My ankles are really skinny and I have naturally shitty calves although I have grown them to 16.5" it's still far from anything I'm proud of. My...
I have an opportunity to get it done tonight and was wondering how good it is. From what I read so far it's has the highest degree of inaccuracy. Some study of university atheletes did 5 different b.f. tests and it showed the largest variability by far. Just wondering if anyone has done it...
wetback thanks for the reply is the TRAC creatine the best you've tried how did you decide on it? Also what about N02 is that worth taking while on a diet?
Just like all of us that bulk I'm scared to death to lose an ounce of muscle now that I'm cutting. I spent 12 months putting on 45 pounds. I'm hoping to stay above 200 lean mass that is the most important thing for me. I'm at 15% right now so that means I'm 208 of lean mass. That gives me 8...
I'm wondering if either creatine or a fat burner would help me with my diet in anyway. I'm 6'3" 245 at 15% right now. I'm going to do my cut slowly. I'm thinking of 3000 cals for the first couple weeks with about 150-175 total grams of carbs each day. I will be doing HIIT at the track twice...
My buddy just called me and started asking me about NO2 and other supplements wanting to know whats best and what will make him ripped and help loose weight plus have energy to workout and not get so tired.
I hate calls like this because there is know easy answer. He has tried working out on...
I was a life long hard gainer and still am I'm sure. I gained 45 pounds in 11 months by using the 5x5 program and over eating as much as I could. I ate everything in site and then some. I ate out at least twice a day just big as value meals. Everytime I went out for a nice dinner I got the...
It's been a while since I was here but this is always my favorite topic. I love being tall but not when it comes to my bench strength.
I'm 6'3" I weight 245 pounds at about 16% I've been bulking now for a year straight.
Anyway my 1 RM is 305 and it felt great.
