ON is good stuff, and pretty good tasting too! Rocky road flavor + oats + skim milk = delicious. Muscle Milk is a protein blend that includes casein and it is high in fat so it digests much more slowly than whey, and isn't an appropriate substitute. Personally I like whey in the morning b/c...

Naturally BSN would recommend additional supplementation so they can make more money off you :p. It would be expected for you notice effects from adding NO Explode b/c you weren't using an NO supplement before (right?). But NO Explode already has creatine in it so I'm wondering if adding...

Umm... I would think it's more like when you workout ATP hydrolyses to ADP + Pi and then creatine-P donates a phosphate group to ADP to produce more ATP, with the leftover creatine being expelled as waste or stored to synthesize more creatine-P when the body is at rest. It doesn't make much...

This is an old thread that I searched out, but I'm going to bump it b/c it's exactly what I want to know... Jones, did you try this? If so, can you compare to using CEE + some other NO supp. and NoE independently? It would be nice to just stick w/NoE and kill 2 birds with one stone... Thanks

Thermorexin + Yohimburn ES was great for me. I especially loved the energy that T-Rex gave me, and it wasn't all jittery like ECA.

Depends on how much you weigh. If you're 250lbs. @ 26% it's going to take you a lot longer than if you're 190lbs. @ 26%. An ideal rate is around 1.5-2 lbs. per week for most guys. You can do the math from there.

How do you bench 197.5? Do you use a smith machine and lift an unbalanced barbell or something?

Anyone? :mix:

what's your ab routine like?

After spending about 14-15 weeks going from 22% BF down to 10-12% I started bulking, and with some rough estimates I calculated that I'm burning about 2800 calories/day. I'm 5'9" ~175-178 (now... was 168-170 3-4 weeks ago) and I lift 4 days/week (2 muscles/day, 9-12 sets/muscle). So being...

hey dcbarnard, you're a dishonest bastard. do i get a free pair now? haha, just kidding. what's wrong with gloves? i don't see any reason that you need to have crusty calluses on your hands. i used to use gloves, but i was just too cheap to buy new ones when my last pair tore apart last...

What?? Are you saying I'm not going to gain any muscle after 4 months of training?

So I just recently just finished a cutting cycle and have started a "lean bulk," at about 2600-2900 calories/day -- at or just below my total daily burn. I plan on doing this until the end of April before I cut again to get well into single digit BF%. My question is, what is a reasonable goal...

BB rows wide-grip front lat pulldowns (i do close grip to mix it up, but prefer wide) DB rows I don't do deads b/c I have a gimpy lower back, but do they even work the lats? i thought they're a low back exercise.

What exactly is "waist" size? It appears that due to recent fatloss, loose skin is making my fat "sag", so the measurement around my navel is 32.5-33" while the smallest point of my torso (about 1/2 way b/w navel and ribs in the front) is 30.5-31". This makes a huge difference, putting me...
