At 95kg 150g is not nearly enough even if you aren't cutting. Did I do my math wrong or isn't this over .9g of protein per pound of body weight? Definitely enough if you are cutting.

There's little point other than curiosity, but still... Their workouts seems to be very power based; weighted jumps, power cleans, bands, slams etc. So I ask you - how do they get so goddamned huge and ripped doing this? Is it because this is all we see (on youtube or franchise media) and they're also doing their own stuff? A lot of them aren't getting that big naturally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetsfan4life51 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Just ordered a bunch of nootropics to test out preworkout. Plus a bunch to mix into my morning coffee. Anyone use Piracetam, Aniracetam or Adrafinil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsujin Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Any good reason why I'd be a little more bloated and heavier when I wake up in the morning compared to right before I go to bed? Don't make no sense. A new development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugashane Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 (edited) Anyone ever do much gymless/gymnastic workouts? I'd like my son to do more bodyweight exercises that focus on TUT rather than explosion since he rarely takes a break from sports, and have seen a few YouTube videos but never done more than traditional pull ups, lying rows, etc. I might be willing to do some with him (he is 9) but it is completely out of my element.

skywindO2 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Anyone have any recommended routines? I'm ideally looking for a 4-day split lifting on Monday/Wednesday/Friday/Sunday. I don't really have any specific goals right now besides dropping some pounds, just something mostly looking for something I can focus on and hopefully progress with. I tried a 3 week trial with a trainer at my gym but wasn't a huge fan of that program. It was a high volume program where I'd end up doing a weird assortment of exercises, something like 3x20 at 50-60% max, but I mostly just felt like I was rushing through each workout.

I did P90x a long time ago and it worked. But seeing that your son is 9, I have no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m a fan of hitting each body part 2x per week with 3-4 sets per body part and keeping reps in the 8-12 range. I generally don’t go to failure or anywhere close, just enough to stimulate some growth and burn some calories. I heard someone describe how you should feel after a workout as such “you should know you’ve lifted and be tired, but should still be able to kick someone’s asss if need be”. I like that approach. Get after it and be productive in the gym, but don’t demolish your body as it doesn’t really do anything more than slow recovery. If you can’t hit the body part again 72 hours later, you went too hard. Some of the high volume stuff and/or low rep/high weight stuff is great if you’re on gear, but for natural lifter (especially guys in their 30’s or 40’s) you mostly just increase risk of injury and have more joint pain. My 2 cents anyway... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsfan4life51 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 I'm having great results using Berberine. Pushing my carbs up to 450g and getting leaner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsujin Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I’m going to see a PT tomorrow. I’m 99% sure I tore my calf muscle while doing squats this morning. I don’t wanna spend the money, but I might need a note from him to allow me to stay in bed and off the foot for the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These guys are also elite level athletes with superb genetics. Gear or no gear these guys will respond to any kind of exercise much better than your average Joe. Not to mention they have a lot of money and resources to optimize all of that work with top notch diets and recovery tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a pretty basic one, but it's actually been pretty great so far. I can send you the full workout if you want, but it's basically: Shoulders/triceps/biceps Legs/abs Back/Chest Cardio/abs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
