I never think of Creatine and mass gain I just want a better workout from it and if I make gains great. This seems to really enhance that side of things.

I'm the same. No expectation of mass gain in here but I'm pleasantly surprised.

Got very little sleep last night though so I'm sore as hell today.

Great pickups. You guys are growing like crazy.

Well I hate to say it but no gym time for me today. I got stuck at work too late to get there. That hasn't happened in a long time and I'm not happy about it. But, I will go tomorrow instead. Way too much work to get done yet too but I can't complain about having work now can I?

[Rahl]

Not sure if its the creatine or the Preworkout but I just keep getting stronger. I'm loving this combo.

I knew this would give pumps, better workouts hence growth but I am pretty surpised that it gives such a boost in strength. I am long past ever being able to lift what I once could but I do notice some good strength from this.

I had taken almost 2 months away from any type of creatine so I knew I would pick up some strength and even a little weight as I usually do with any creatine. I am very surprised by how much strength I'm gaining here though. All of my lifts are going up significantly. PR's in squats and Bench? Yessir, I'll take it! LOL

Now I"m afraid to see what happens when I run out! I will pick up more to run at a more "normal" dosage and see where my strength lands. I don't normally train for strength but I am training for size right now and the 2 more often than not go hand in hand so I'm happy to gain.

Well if sleep has been a little restless which it sounds like it has from the need for Need2Sleep then possibly you could be lying on your arm with it up over your head. I tend to get an annoying tweak in my shoulder from doing this every once in a while and have to be cognoscente of that fact and try to keep my arms no higher than shoulder height. How I have gotten better at this is when I lay on my side where I would normally extend my bottom arm up and under the pillow I put my hand under the pillow cradling my head and then put my top hand across my biceps kind of cupping it. I actually find it is a really comfortable position and I feel really secure so falling asleep is easier. My hand being over my biceps kind of helps keep my subconscious mind aware of my lower arms position during sleep and I wake up when I move it and then just put it back and fall right back to sleep. I know sounds weird but if that has anything to do with it you will notice relief with the fist day or two.

SOunds great for sure.

Well part of progression is increasing the weight, just remember to do it in baby steps. As we talked about a pound or two of added progression is enough to cause adaptation and the key to remaining safe is to adapt at a speed your tendons and joints can keep up with.

Chris, you hit right on what I believe is a huge part of my shoulder pain. I've been trying to sleep differently as I do sleep exactly the way you describe with my arms above. In going to give you system a **** for a while bro. Appreciate the tip.

What I normally do for progression is allow myself to get considerably higher reps at a weight before actually moving it up to a new weight. I've been doing this for the past year. It really seems to be keeping the joint pain at a minimum which is huge for us older guys.

Recently I have dropped one of my lighter sets in my pyramid up an its made a big difference in all of my lifts.

True but stength gain is not always there and progression still works to give gains. For example I sometimes to make it all the way back up to 100% capacity on all my lifts but still get the benefit of the progression. That's why it's important for an old fugger like me as I have seen better strength days.
