titansNvolsR#1 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) My trainer ordered OLIMP for me. Was about 40 dollars for 64 servings but he got it at a lower price as I guess he ordered it through the gym. No idea where it rates though. I just mix it with water and slam it. Edited November 25, 2019 by titansNvolsR#1 missed number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smetana34 Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 Thoughts on belts? My deadlifts are getting to a point now that I'm struggling to get through them. I imagine there isn't a magic number of weight where it's advised to wear one, rather its about the strain your putting your body under. Not trying to hurt myself out here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budget is tight so I’ve been using the body fortress whey protein you can get at Walmart for like 17 bucks but idk I always feel so blah after it. All I mix is 1 scoop with 1 cup of milk and a banana. Myprotein normally has really good deals and it mixes well / tastes fine Musclepharm combat protein is my favorite (tastes good and sits well in my stomach) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter2_1 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Christmas has decked me out with a lovely couple layers of FET!! Lifts were good on the first workout back though. Tough 13 weeks ahead trying to cut toward 10% bf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsujin Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I maybe put on almost 10 lb the past 2 weeks. Too scared to look at the scale. Yesterday I started keto IF. Breakfast and lunch only. You feel really lean in the evening. Going to re-try 100 pushups, 50 pullups, 100 leg presses MON-SAT for 3 weeks each morning. Some auxiliary free weights on Saturday evening, too.

Heimdallr Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I've never been a pre-workout, energy drink, or coffee person so I don't have any tolerance to caffeine, and lately I've been having a cup of coffee before going to the gym and whooaa booy drugs are great!! Feels like a completely different plane of existence. The nespresso vertuo capsule I drink has 165 mg of caffeine - is that a lot? It feels like a lot.

I'd say that's a good amount for before a workout. I've taken up to 300mg before a workout but that's because I'm very tolerant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Farmer's Walk up and down stairs is possibly the most brutal thing I have ever added to my workout. It's tougher than any HIIT training I've ever tried. I hate it. I love it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to do that for 6 weeks while rehabbing from a broken leg, and it was brutal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds so extreme to rehab a broken leg, haha. How long did you have to walk backwards for and how was it programmed, as far as sets, etc?
