The Official Gym & Fitness Thread

Squats and deads are my favorite... I never do bench.. Ever.
I don't really do any upper body other than some pull ups and some Olympic lift movements that incorporate upper body

man, I want elite totals.


man, I probably won't hit elite totals

at least for awhile.
lol

 

Kipping doesn't count

 

Agreed

 

Picked up my first pair of running shoes ever at lunch today. I hate cardio. So I decided to make it my bitch today. Ran/ walked 2.5 miles in 25 minutes. Mostly run but had to slow down to catch my breath a couple times. It can only improve from there. I chose crossfit because I enjoy the friendly competition at the classes. Whether people are better than me or worse it makes me want to be better whenever I see anyone doing it too. I like lifting at the gym but all my friends are stupid cocks and can't keep a schedule for more than a week. I am not disciplined enough to go and push myself hard alone the way I do with someone else working out with me.

 

I know you all wanted to see them.


At least they aren't special crossfit shoes hahaha.... Although they did add an additional 5 kips to my record

 

300+ will be mine. I'm giving it a month before i try again. Felt REALLY good tonight, but figured I'd wait. Instead, did 205, 225 x6, then 245, 265, 275 x4. I was happy with that. If I can keep doin that for a few weeks I should throw up 300 easily.

 

I don't know how much you guys are all in to pre/post workouts, but if you want a clean energy with some good clean ingredients check out "Jym supplement science"
Pre JYM and Post JYM is what I have been taking and have noticed increased results. I'm not saying this to create hype for a company cause I could care less, just some food for thought. All the supplements are backed with reasoning and science no BS or fillers. I purchased through bodybuilding.com not to horrible on pocketbook if you get it on sale. Best of luck

 

jym is my favorie pre, I just build up a super tolerance to it super quick

 

Im still searching for the perfect pre. haha
Jym comes close but after a tub I don't get much from it. which reminds me.....I need more pre

my list's at
original jack3d/craze (amazing)
jym(very good)
assault(alright)
pump igniter (good)
mr hyde (alright)
white flood (Good)
c4 (crap)
NO xplode (crap-ing. A lot of it)
1mr (alright)
nano vapor (meh)

 

Try making your own. I use creatine, beta alanine, dextros powder. And then either protien powder or bcaas

 

Where do you get your stuff from?

I've tried twice, but the store I tried buying through Amazon always runs out of stuff, and I end up canceling instead of waiting a month

I was gonna try an arginine/beta alanine/caffeine/bcaa/citrulline malate mix

 

im almost at elite, my bench gas has gone up a lot since i went bro and starting doing more upper body, repped out 275x8 last week.

 

apparently for my BW a 177lb OHP is elite...
Gotta try that. lol

 

deadlift has suffered because my back injury, but im looking buff as fuck up top, which is nice.

 

I like to switch between pre jym and assault seems to keep tolerance down! or go a month on something generic like white flood or purple wrath
