No pain, no gain. Am I right or am I right?

 

I use tapeworms when cutting.

 

heavy leg day

but this dude and chick jump on the platform next to me

they both start doing the shittiest deadlifts I've ever seen. the dude's a big dude
but not muscular
just large

he's "coaching" her on how to DL
giving her really stupid cues
"make sure to tighten your calves when you're pulling" - doing sumo DLs
"raise your shoulders when you get to the top"

then he's all
"wanna try something a little harder? theyre good for you though!"

starts trying to coach her on how to do cleans
dude doesn't even know how to hold a front rack
he fucking tells her

"make sure you lean forward to catch the bar off the ground"
this chick is pulling with pretty much only her shoulders
she catches it looking like a <
dude's like

"Good!"

Shoulda filmed them.

 

This shit has never hit me so hard... Guaranteed PR when you take it... I liked Mr Hyde... but this shit was better. Taste SUCKS ASS, but...meh

 

Like 1 1/8 scoops, normally on an empty stomach. Maybe I just respond well to it.

 

Very possible, I would never get wired off drinking soda..nobody believes it especially with the amount I was consuming.

I'm thinking maybe after 3-4 months on the Lean Burn my body may be getting used to it so perhaps I'm not getting the benefits of the weight loss..

 

fwiw mr. hyde has 400mg of caffeine per serving

 

Bout to go murder some bis and tris

Edit* (thought id never post that)

 

Muscle Marinade was awesome back when I took it a few years ago. I remember the crappy taste/smell more so then the effects.

 

Took that 10sets of 10 squat workout and changed it up a but and did 15 sets of 5 @225 today. Followed by some 3' box jumps and overhead squats... Legs feel like jello.

Skiing is going to suck next few days lol

Your welcome

 

Watched that a little bit ago.

"How are people gonna know you're better than them if they can't see your pump or know how much you lift?"

 

Think I'm gonna start training calves 3-4 times a week. Been reading a lot of articles saying calves are one of the few muscles you can't really over train. Makes sense to me. And I have tiny calves, so I'm willing to try anything.

 

You cant realy "over train" them cuz your walking on them all day they are ment to recover quicklu however i wouldnt reccomend it. Because all thoes muscles in there like your gastrocnemious, anterior tib, and soleus muscles are gona get really tight if ur training em that much. If u are going to id say stretch em out atleast twice as much as you train them. U dont want tightness there itll fuckup your squat, give you shin splints, compartment sydrom, fuck with your dorsi and planter flexion of the ankle. Ask me how i know lol i had physical therapy on mine for like 2 years

 

Read an article the other day saying that seated calf raises are one of the best calf workouts because it focuses on the soleous muscle and it can push the calf muscle out which will help you to get bigger calves.

 

I do calves a few times a week. Sometimes more. Its normally something I do while waiting for a squat rack or a pull up bar to open. I have natural calves so its not something I really care about building, I just like how it feels.
