Why go heavier if you cannot do 6x80 on your own? :trout:
The answer is quite simple: stick with 75s and increase your reps, say 8-10. Also work on your triceps, manly close grip bench to help with that first lift off.

They don't have 77.2's at my gym. The jump from 75 to 80 is so much that it stinks. This week I will see how that goes. I do every 4 weeks close grip bench for my triceps. Thanks for the advice. I am comming near the end of my monster stack and I will give you my rating at the end.

I know what you mean, but NO gyms have 2 1/2 lbs increases in DB I am sure. I had it worse, my gym was MISSING 1 of the 80# DB so I forced myself to try the jump from 75>>>85, didnt happen. I stuck it out w/75 until my reps were up to 12, then I could get the 85s for 4-6 reps.
Def close grip bench will help, keep at it.

the nysc I go to actually has 2 1/2 increments....they are those magnetic things you slap on the side of the dumbbell. 2 of them equals 2 1/2 pounds.......I only see the women using them though....and I think that is what they are for.

Wow. My gym has like 50 to 52.5 but not from 55 to 57.5 as a example. Once we get to the 60's and 70's they don't even go up by 2.5. I will go back to 75 and get at least 8 reps out of them till I feel comfortable.

So I finished 2 bottles now of jacked. I will give my review after 2 bottles.
I do agree more BA can't hurt. Maybe GLPC for no production but other than that.
Taste 8.5 out of 11 a lot better than most products on the market
felt it 3 scoops 9 out of 11 can't sleep
felt it 2 scoops 9.5 out of 11 good
felt it 1.5 scoop 9.5 out of 11 but just right.
Would use again? Yes maybe the next batch. I have 1 bottle left as I got 3 for the promo cost.
Would recommend it. 8 out of 11.
Way better than prime. I used 6 bottles of prime and got nothing out of it. 2 bottles of jacked and got lot out of it.

You logs would have to be the worst ever - 58 posts of utter horseshit lacking any detail nor substance interspersed with some slightly amusing video.
- please re-read your last sentence of your last post and tell me why you shouldn't be negged! Repeatedly!

Jake if all your going to do is talk rubbish than don't because I think its wasting my time reading. If you saw some of my PR's I think the product speaks for its self.

That was a legitimate statement - the content of your 'log' nonewithstanding, you concluded by comparing Jacked with Prime....which you decided took 6 bottles before concluding you we're a non-responder :684:
DJ, as far as I'm concerned any credibility you may have clawed back after the cre-02 incident has evaporated. I think post 11 sums everthing up perfectly:
The answer is Yes, it's highly probable.
You better be a major shareholder of Rabbit Farms and Tall Hats Inc for your highly anticipated Sponsored Log. I'd start studying up hard if I was you :thumbsup:
