Best of luck buddy...

[Triple Cs]

1. Subbed for a fellow vertical trainer.
2. I'm assuming you rocked out on plyometrics during the SD cycle?
3. Interested to see how Prime stacks up against the steroid cycle.
4. Hit me up if you want to switch up your training program, I'm currently following the Vertical Jump Bible from Kelly Baggett, and at 6'2" with a 33", I'm throwing down on fools. Probably raised my vertical at least 3-4 inches.

I was actually doing the Beginner program from the VBJ. I sprained my knee in the 2nd to last week. My squat is 325 for 3 reps ever since I stopped using a knee brace.

Right now, I am kind of on the Time Effciency program. I did ankle bounces, knees to chest, power skipping, and deep, rhymic lunges in the pool while rehabbing. Now I am looking to go to advanced excercises I can do in the yard at home. 1-leg step up jumps, shock drops, and sprinting.

I do think that I got better results on the end of my cycle and during my PCT with USP's Anabolic Pump. I am almost out of it right now, I purchased during the sale and don't feel like parting with $50+. I am starting to run out of protein, so a Nutraplanet order will probably come this week. Probably Muscle Milk and Casien. On the bubble is a 2nd bottle of Divanex and more NAC. My strength has remained through the first four weeks of PCT and I think AP, Divanex and 7-OH have a lot to do with that. I don't think that I am asking too much from Prime considering that a small strength increase combined with better plyometric ability should give me the 2 inches I need.

If you can handle the ball, 2 inches may be all you need. I remember being so frustrated about a year ago, because I could grab and hold with two hands on a standing jump, but couldn't throw it down because I couldn't control the ball. Luckily, something clicked/my hands got larger, and I'm able to dunk with ease now.

Check out jump squatting if you're into squatting and plyos...they beat the s*** out of the back squat, IMO.

BTW, save your money and don't buy casein protein. Drink more milk instead; the protein content of milk is composed of 80% casein. I'd go for Drive/RPM as the replacement supplement.

sub'd.. best of luck

[aefx2387]

Subbed!! Can't wait to see the end result.

[DreamWeaver]

Watching this, should be grounds for some interesting comparisons here.

[maurice02]

subd to this. Started my prime yesterday so wanna see what everyone thinks.

[dafox]

subbed... got mine in the mail today, but am waiting a whole month and a half to start some pretty big claims on the box the bottle came in

[freezito]

dafox, those claims will still be there in a month in a half, u might as well hit it hard

[Triple Cs]

Not really noticing anything for cardio today. Made an order for Muscle Milk and Divanex today, right in time b/c the Divanex is now sold out!

Either tomorrow or Thursday, I will do a workout consisting of mostly jump squats and plyometric drills. I am hoping from week to week I will be able to shave days here and there so that I can work legs more often. Not expecting to see any results these first two weeks, so I will probably give myself more recovery time until PCT is over. I sure would like to see some of those claims of needing to take days off from Prime to keep from working out, I am feeling the hangover from the long weekend. Energy was high going in, down in the dumps now.

I couldn't possibly wait to try Prime. I need to know if it works. I'd rather try it fresh now and have the experince of testing a mystery substance. If I waited, then I might be more angry if it didn't work and it would probably go into the back of the cabinet. Of course, if it works then I'm glad I started early and I would be happy to buy more.

good point...

Jump Squats went well today. Little rough on my previously injured knee. Both scales were removed at my gym, so I have no idea what I weigh.

[Triple Cs]

Weight is at 193, good workouts this week, strength remained about the same. Libido is up from the Divanex. I do feel more willing to chalenge myself. After jump squats I wanted to do some olympic squats just to see if I could get up to my max. Of course, I have been focusing on my legs for a while and need to stay with my design for this to be a light week.

I will probably move legs up earlier in the week and do 2 days of legs with 10-12 sets each day. Chest day was pretty good, got a great pump, but I have been getting big time pumps for a while now.

Noticing a little appetite increase, but this weeks schedule has been hectic. Food intake is a little down and I missed a dose last night due to falling asleep early. When taking into account that this could happen in the future, I will take Prime everyday. 2 bottles should be 40 days and by then I will either gladly pay the $50 to stay on or discontinue.

So far I am very happy with my PCT. My reduced workload has helped to maintain my strength and I would love to stay above 190 until I decide to cut.

Cx3,

What kind of reps you working on with the squats? Lay that leg training out here so we can see it. For your size I think you could easily put another 75-100lbs on that squat.

[Triple Cs]

I have a metal rod in my right leg, so my legs have lagged behind. I used to do a bodybuilding-type routine. Close-stance squats, high reps (10-12) and 10 sets of isolation excercises.

Every since I dropped both reps and sets for jump training, I have been making progress, but I am careful when raising the loads. My working set is 325 for 5 reps, for 4 sets. This is a wide stance, olympic squat, legs below parallel, but not ATG. My leg press is about 1000 pounds for 4 reps.

[Fabulous One]

Does the rod in your leg limit you? 325x4x5 is some decent squatting for anyone. I was thinking it was your 1RM for some reason.

Have you ever tried any bottom postion squats? Everytime I have used them in the past my squat increased and since I have been dealing with some knee pain they are what I am using exclusively. I am also using singles for basically all of my sets.

[Triple Cs]

I have trouble powering out of the bottom when doing ATG, even at low weights. Also, my vertical off my bad leg is terrible. Probably 12" for a one legged takeoff. My vertical for the other leg and a two leg jump is what I do by.

Do I need a smith machine or is a possible to do these squats from a power rack?

[metroba]

Never heard or seen anyone do bottom squats before but I just looked it up and it looks like it would be good to throw in every couple of weeks.
