Maybe I'm the outlier in the crowd, I'm on wk 2 of Amp02 and I liked the no xplode a lot better. I've ramped up to 10 caps, I just end up feeling like shit when I'm at the gym. I usually take about 30 minutes prior to the gym with about a litre of water. Has this happened to anyone else?

As for inserts, I have some that help with running, but provide too much heel cushion to be helpful for squats. Usually I'll squat barefoot. I always focus on keeping my foot neutral but when anything above 225-250, my feet flatten. I usually use an oly stance, the problem is usually much...

I have very weak arches. I first noticed this when i'd spend some time running. When squatting at higher weights, my arch flattens, my ankles supinate and in turn drive my knees inwards. While this hasn't led to any knee problems yet, I figure it cant be good in the long run. Any suggestions...

Wow, those were pretty scary. Looks like he started some of the lifts correctly, but all went to shit halfway through. Prolly should take about 30% off each lift and work from there

Thanks again bro! Also, do you mean farmer's walk?

fuckin-A. Good job movin a lot of weight.

My grip strength sucks. I used to use straps and now I'm paying the price for it, however, I dont want to limit my back development due to weak forearms. My question is: Do those grippers work at all? If so, any recommendations? I've started adding in some direct forearm work, but they're...

I hate to harp on the taller/longer limbs point, but the way I think about it, the person with the smaller limbs (shorter ROM) has a mechanical advantage over the guy with longer limbs. Think about it like if you were doing lat raises with arms bent with one weight, and tried to do lat raises...

You guys are all beasts!!! I'm weighin in at 225 now ~15%, but my lifts are nowhere near all of yours... Gotta keep at it! "Scotsman: Hammer curls 100lb db's for 5 each arm" I'd love to see the look on some of the bicep-squad guys faces while they're swinging with 40lbs and you're...

LMAO, that guy's a tool... :FRlol: :finger:

I used the 3x a week, ala Madcow. Worked well for me. I was bulking, no juice, but found myself sleeping 10 hours a nite :)

Thanks bro!

So basically I come here and I'm a big lurker, but I figure I'd type up a post talking about my progression and what I've learned over the last year. Apr '05. I had been lifting for about a year, without making any real progress. I'm 6' and I was weighing in at only 165lbs BF ~6-7%. I was...

Bulkers, How much time do you spend eating a meal? It takes me like 30-45 minutes to eat a solid meal anymore...

I've heard a lot of mixed reviews about the stuff, figured I'd give it a shot at $10 for a bottle.
